Angel/Leading Ladies highlighted in the WECAI E-zine

Hello Fabulous Leading Ladies!

I/Leading Ladies was recently highlighted in the E-zine of
www.WECAI.org
as their E-Monday Woman. In fun and celebration I have posted it below

Also, please don’t hesitate to let me know if you, Leading Lady, are highlighted in a publication or on the news (I love hearing about you and celebrating with you!)
Just drop me an email at: angel@leadingladieslounge.com and tell me all about it!

Here’s the E-Monday Woman piece …

eMonday Woman

This week's interview is with Angel C. Hale

1. Tell us a little bit about yourself.

Hmmm, people say I am an "Old Soul," and that does resonate with me though if I am, I'm an Old Soul who loves to play (I would imagine the two go naturally hand-in-hand. In actual years in this body, I am 34-years-old and I've been a personal/life coach since way before I new what to call it. My passions are motivating people, enriching the world one life at time, being connected and connecting people to one another, finding joy and beauty where ever I can and did I mention-Play, Play, Play!

In reference to my current Life's Work: I have, rather recently, discovered that I have a "niche market" that I hadn't even been aware of having. In short, I realized that I have been and am attracting clients who are "Natural Born Leaders," - Leading Ladies as I have lovingly dubbed them.
These women, like me, are those who find themselves regularly called upon to support, encourage and nurture others. I can't even express how tremendous it was to become aware of the population I have been serving all this time!
Now I even have a website that celebrates and supports these incredible
women. It has been and continues to be an amazing journey!

2. What would you say is your "claim to fame"

Well, anyone who has spent time around me would likely say my clamed to fame is my laugh. I laugh a lot and am told it's infectious-and far reaching if you know what I mean. When I ask, "am I too loud," I hear things like "No-just right loud." So that's good at least. J

But since that isn't likely what you're asking, I would venture that my true claim to fame is Leading Ladies-it is resonating so profoundly with so many women and I am delighting in watching it grow into a powerful and transformative community.

3. What do you enjoy most about your profession?

The people-I love my clients! I feel so blessed to work with the coaching clients that are attracted to me and honored to touch lives of audiences who have me come speak to them and spend time with them. Yep, it's the people I love most in my profession!

4. What are some of the trends you are noticing in your profession/industry?

I am noticing that women who are natural leaders (mothers, sisters, CEO's, managers, friends), are not just naturally depleted, but ready to acknowledge their depletion. They are truly ready to absorb and apply tools/resources that build and nurture their bodies, minds and spirits. It seems that books and messages out there like "The Secret," are "awakening"
this market and many other markets, to the understanding that we can truly create/live full, joyful and abundant lives. This is a wonderful time for coaches and others in the helping professions to be active in insuring that the power of attraction stays alive and thriving in our own lives and in the lives and experiences of those we serve.

5. From where do you draw inspiration?

I draw inspiration from virtually everywhere and everyone I meet (my clients, my experiences, my ability to breathe and live in the moment).
Though my true and abiding inspiration comes from loved ones (my parents, grandparents friends and just too many other people to mention here). First and foremost my inspiration undeniably comes from my soul mate/husband Gene Newton, who is not only my Love and best friend, but he is also my editor ( for just about every piece I publish) and my "softest place to land."

Really, it seems I'm inspired everywhere I turn.

6. What one thing would you like to learn this year?

How to publish a book successfully. I'm working on my first book right now and can't wait to experience the process of finding just the right publisher. Yet another adventure!

7. What are your personal/professional goals for the next 6 months, year?

One: To publish my first book

Two: To bless the lives of twice as many people as I did last year (via coaching, speaking and just living)(this has the added bonus of gifting myself with twice as many people to learn from and grow with-I love that part too}

Three: To host the first of many Leading Ladies retreats and revitalize, nurture and bless the socks off of every Leading Lady who attends

8. What do you like to do for recreation?

Tandem biking with my Sweetie; read books of all kinds; sing; swim; be in nature doing just about anything; dance (usually to modern blues with my guy); and the list could go on.

9. What book(s) are on your nightstand?

O goodness-between the books Gene and I reading together and my own books.
The Secret (of course), Love's Executioner (sounds awful but love this work and the authors authenticity), The Power of Now, Choosing Your Own Greatness (old Wayne Dyer material), and a few others that are in the drawer of the nightstand waiting there turns.

I/we tend to read books of our choice depending on our needs/moods (so obviously variety is paramount).

10. What is the one thing you would like readers to know about you? About your company?

I simply want everyone reading this to feel incredibly welcome at LeadingLadiesLounge.com it is a place designed not just for our fabulous Leading Ladies, "Natural Born Leaders," but for all who love and want to bless the Leading Ladies who have nurtured, support and encourage them along
their path.

I warmly invite each and every one of you, WECAI members, to come visit us and enjoy the magic of Leading Ladies: Celebrating and Supporting Natural Born Leaders.
