  • When the Ladder Has No More Rungs, Here's What to Do, with Natalie Benamou

    When the Ladder Has No More Rungs, Here's What to Do, with Natalie Benamou
    2026/10/14
    What if the thing nobody prepares you for is not the hard climb to the top - but the moment you get there and realize there is no next rung? You have done everything right. You have the title, the track record, the team. And you look up and the ladder ends. Today's guest built an entire network for the woman in that exact moment - and she is here to tell you that the ladder running out is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of the most interesting chapter you have ever written.SUMMARY & GUEST INTROIf you have ever looked up after decades of climbing and realized the ladder you have been on does not go where you thought it would, Natalie Benamou built HerCSuite for you. She is the founder and CEO of HerCSuite, a portfolio career network for women leaders in the second half of their careers. She has driven over $110 million in revenue as a business strategist and rainmaker. She is the CEO and president of HerHealthX, a nonprofit using agentic AI to bridge the care communication gap for women. And she hosts one of the top-ranked women's leadership podcasts, Women Leaders on the Move. In this conversation, Natalie and Erica compare notes on what the second half of a career actually looks like, what a portfolio career means in practice, how boards work and why women need to stop waiting to be tapped, and what AI is doing to the opportunity landscape for senior women right now.INSIDE THE EPISODEThe Titanic Moment. March 2020. Natalie was leading a division in trade shows - hundreds of events on a giant whiteboard - when everything stopped. She was the conductor keeping everyone playing while the ship was going down. By October of that year she knew it was time to fly through the open window. HerCSuite was born from that moment and the Zoom calls with girlfriends that followed.Multi-Hyphenate Is the New Career Path. Women in the second half of their careers are not looking for one next thing. They are building portfolio careers - board roles, entrepreneurship, advisory work, thought leadership, all at once. Natalie's Love/Like/Capable framework helps women figure out what they actually want to spend their time on before they jump into anything new.Women Don't Have the Luxury of Happy Hours. Erica on the networking gap: women are not building the informal connections that men build over drinks and dinners after work because they are home running households. The connections that get women into rooms and onto boards are the ones that have to be built deliberately - and that is exactly why communities like HerCSuite and HER Collective exist.The S&P Board Numbers Went Backwards. Women on S&P boards went from 38% to 25%. That is not progress, that is a reversal. Natalie's response: you gotta open your own doors. Board seats are the highest, hardest position in any company, and nobody is going to tap you on the shoulder. You have to build the visibility, the strategic narrative, and the relationships that get you there.CoLab3: The 90-Day Sprint That Builds Revenue and Community at the Same Time. HerCSuite's CoLab3 matches three members into 90-day sprint pods to solve a problem together and generate collaborative revenue. The first cohort built everything from an M&A assessment tool to a cybersecurity business checklist to an AI readiness survey. The model is built on the idea that the right three people in a room for 90 days can generate what none of them could alone.Skipping the AI Fundamentals. Erica on the AI gap she keeps seeing: people want to jump straight to autonomous AI workflows without learning how to actually communicate with the machine. It is like skipping vocabulary and grammar and trying to write a novel. The women who will close the AI gap are the ones who do the foundational work first.Identify Your Values Before Your Next Move. Natalie's most practical advice: before you make any next career move, know what matters most to you. Family, freedom, title, impact - whatever it is, get clear on it first, because every decision you make will either align with it or cost you something. The women who skip this step are the ones who land in the next chapter and realize it does not fit.RESOURCES & LINKSHerCSuite Network: https://hercsuite.com/HerCSuite Membership: https://hercsuite.com/hercsuite-network-where-women-lead-the-future/Board Ready Summit: https://hercsuite.com/board-ready-summit/Women Leaders on the Move Podcast: https://hercsuite.com/podcast/Natalie Benamou on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nataliebenamou/ ERICA'S RESOURCES & LINKSStart small with me inside HER Jumpstart:https://her-collective.mn.co/plans/1985289?bundle_token=60b2c61d62213cdbd16d437cdc0e4204&utm_source=manual🤖 Grab your copy of THE AI GAP: https://amzn.to/3OAXAdL📚 Get my first book, Glass Ceilings and Sticky Floors: https://amzn.to/4uvjbE5💼 Follow me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericarooney/📸 Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericaandersonrooney/🎵 Check out my TikTok: ...

  • How to Build an Ownable Brand (Hint: It's Not Your Company's Brand), with Robyn Young

    How to Build an Ownable Brand (Hint: It's Not Your Company's Brand), with Robyn Young
    2026/10/07
    What if the reason your brand feels scattered, your referrals are misaligned, and you keep attracting clients that drain you is not a marketing problem - but an identity problem? Robyn Young has spent eight years building brands for Google, UCLA, and founders across every industry while quietly hiding from her own. When the business she thought was her exit strategy collapsed, she finally put herself through her own framework. One income stream became five. And what she built - the Brand Universe - is the framework that changed everything. This episode is for the woman who has been putting it off long enough.SUMMARY & GUEST INTROIf you have ever walked away from a brand strategy session with a mission statement, a vision, a set of values, and a content calendar - and still felt like nothing had actually changed - Robyn Young has a name for what happened to you. You got a box. Not a brand. Robyn is the founder of Young and Co, a brand strategy and creative studio based in Los Angeles. She has worked with Google, UCLA, Verishop, and Industrious, and her framework - the Brand Universe - is built on a single idea: your brand is built from the inside out around a point of view so specific and so true that competitors can copy your tactics but they can never copy your conviction. She is also the author of Build Your Brand Universe. And yes, she spent eight years building brands for everyone else before she finally built one for herself. This conversation is the one she spent eight years earning the right to have.INSIDE THE EPISODEYour Company Is Not Your Brand. For the corporate woman who has built her entire professional identity around where she works and who she has worked with - Robyn's opening reframe is the most important thing in the episode. If you are only ever depending on who you have worked with, you are in the shallowest, noisiest part of the pool. The day that company's name gets ripped away, who are you?She Was Hiding Behind Her Own Agency for Eight Years. Robyn was hitting consistent six figures and still stuck. She started a second business as an exit strategy. It collapsed. She was bleeding cash and wondering whether she would have to rebuild a resume for the first time in nearly a decade. The moment she put herself through her own Brand Universe framework, everything changed.Saying Yes to Everything Hurt Her Brand. Most people think saying yes is safe. Robyn says it is how you end up invisible. When she said yes to everything out of fear, the referrals that came in were misaligned. People did not know where to place her. A brand with a real point of view gives you permission to say no - and the referrals it attracts are the ones that actually fit.Demographics Pigeonhole You. Psychographics Set You Free. Erica has wrestled for years with the pull to 'go bigger' and market to everyone beyond women. Robyn's reframe: the problem is not that Erica's audience is too narrow. It is that she has been defining it by a demographic instead of a mindset. Who you are not for is often the clearest path to understanding who you are for.What Are You Fighting? One of the eight components of Robyn's Brand Point of View framework is the monster: what convention, wrong, or idea in your industry are you standing against? This is not political. It is about finding the thing your brand has a real stake in - the hill you are willing to die on. That stake is what makes a brand distinct.Do the Exact Opposite of Trends. For every Jessie Jane, there are a million people who have been yapping into a camera for years and are nowhere. Trends are about fitting in. Brands are built by standing out. The best move is to look at what everyone in your field is doing and do the exact opposite. At least you would be an original.AI Cannot Give You Your Brand Identity. If you go to AI without a brand point of view, it will give you something - but you will never have conviction in it. You cannot outsource identity. Once you have the strength and identity, AI can compound it. But the deep work has to come first.RESOURCES & LINKSBook: Build Your Brand Universe: https://www.thisisyoung.co/bookBrand Universe Accelerator: https://www.thisisyoung.co/acceleratorYoung and Co Website: https://www.thisisyoung.co/Substack: Yes& Newsletter: https://yesandnewsletter.substack.com/Robyn on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robyn-young/ ERICA'S RESOURCES & LINKSStart small with me inside HER Jumpstart:https://her-collective.mn.co/plans/1985289?bundle_token=60b2c61d62213cdbd16d437cdc0e4204&utm_source=manual🤖 Grab your copy of THE AI GAP: https://amzn.to/3OAXAdL📚 Get my first book, Glass Ceilings and Sticky Floors: https://amzn.to/4uvjbE5💼 Follow me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericarooney/📸 Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericaandersonrooney/🎵 Check out my TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ericaandersonrooney

  • Who Benefits When You're Scared of AI?

    Who Benefits When You're Scared of AI?
    2026/09/30
    What if the people telling you AI is going to end the world are the same people selling you the AI that could end the world - and they are doing both at the same time? Erica has been lying awake reading the headlines, thinking about her eight-year-old sleeping down the hall. And today she is naming names, bringing receipts, and taking explicit positions on the AI fear machine, what happens when women are not in the rooms where this technology gets built, and exactly what she thinks we owe the next generation right now.ABOUT THIS EPISODEThis is the spiciest solo episode Erica has ever recorded, and she knew it when she sat down at her kitchen counter to make it. She covers the extinction statement signed by the CEOs of OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Anthropic - and the fact that they went back to the office and raced each other to build faster. She covers the $140 million super PAC with AI industry money pouring into midterms. She covers NVIDIA, China, and the contradiction at the center of the 'we can't let China win' argument. She covers the Grok image scandal - 4.4 million generated images in nine days, 41% sexualized images of women - and what it tells us about who is not in the product meetings. And she covers the stat that stops her cold: women are 57% of the workers in jobs most likely to be disrupted by AI, and 13% of the C-suite leaders at AI companies. Then she gives you three moves to make this week.INSIDE THE EPISODEShould I Actually Be Concerned About AI? Erica holds both: the AI nerd who sees what this technology can do, and the mom who wants to throw every device in the lake. She sorts the real risks from the manufactured ones and calls out the people making money off of our fear.Who Benefits When We're Scared? When the CEOs selling the product tell you it could end the world, ask one question: who benefits? Fear makes you feel small and leaves it to the tech geniuses. Fear makes them look like the only ones smart enough to save us from the very thing they are selling. That is a damn good business model.The $140 Million Super PAC. Leading the Future has reportedly raised $140 million for the midterms. Its mission: electing people who want AI rules light and one national standard that overrides tougher state laws. Donors include Andreessen Horowitz and the president of OpenAI. The industry warns about extinction. The industry's money builds a nine-figure war chest to keep the rules light.NVIDIA, China, and the Contradiction. For years the rallying cry was that we cannot let China win the AI race - so we have to move fast and keep the rules light. Then the administration said NVIDIA could sell its most powerful chips to Chinese companies, including ByteDance and Tencent, as long as the US gets a 25% cut. The first shipments landed in China this summer.Grok and What Happens When Women Aren't in the Room. xAI rolled out an image editing feature and people immediately used it to digitally undress women and girls from photos found online. In nine days: 4.4 million images generated, 41% sexualized images of women. Any woman in that product meeting could have told them that was coming. Any mom could have told them that.57% Disrupted, 13% in the Room. Women are 57% of the workers in jobs most likely to be disrupted by generative AI. Women hold 13% of C-suite AI roles at AI companies. At the rate we are going, it will take 90 years to reach equal representation in leadership. A girl born today may never see that in her lifetime.Three Moves You Can Make This Week. Start using AI and let people see you use it. Parent it loudly - have the talk with your kids, use it together, tell them what happened with Grok. Follow the money and use your voice - midterms are coming, AI money is pouring into races, opensecrets.org makes it easy. If there is no woman on your company's AI council, get yourself into that room.
