Welcome to the Soft Power Project, a podcast that journals the story of women as they navigate their own transformations. I’m Sherry, a certified coach and your host. In my mid 30s, I made the bold decision to reinvent my life. Now in my 40s, I’m sharing that journey, along with the stories of the women, who inspire me. Like you, we are embracing growth to become our highest selves. Let’s celebrate the power of self-exploration, one story at a time.

Hello my dears,Have you ever felt stuck at work—like no amount of expert advice could make you feel truly accomplished?I’ve been there. I was often the one giving advice to others, yet somehow those same tips didn’t seem to work for me. Why? Because no matter how good you are at “communicating,” “negotiating,” or “presenting,” if you’re not in a workplace that values your contributions, those skills alone won’t bring you happiness.This realization became the driving force behind this podcast. It’s why I believe so deeply in the power of soft power.Our soft power allows us to be more curious, more honest, and to set clear boundaries. It helps us align our intentions and values internally—creating a healthy foundation for both our work and our mental well-being.How do you use soft power at work? I’d love to hear your thoughts.Leave a comment and share your thoughts: https://open.firstory.me/user/cm5etbvm00a1i01sl6k6h99de/comments
