This conversation centers the real, often unseen experience of motherhood. We’ll explore the emotional, mental, and physical load that mothers/parents carry every day—from balancing work and family to navigating identity, expectation, and self-care. Joined by Heidi Frank, LCSW, who specializes in perinatal mental health and has worked closely with expecting individuals, this discussion will also gently touch on the unique transitions into motherhood and the support mothers need during that time. Through honest storytelling and shared experiences, we aim to bring visibility to the invisible work, validate the complexity of motherhood, and create space for connection, reflection, and support. Content Note: This episode includes discussion of pregnancy loss, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, postpartum psychosis, and other maternal mental health challenges. We recognize that these experiences may be difficult or activating for some listeners and encourage you to engage in a way that feels supportive and safe for you.

This podcast episode introduces the LLIFE leadership competency model at Mayo Clinic and explores how it shapes leadership development, readiness, and succession planning across the organization — with a particular focus on how women can leverage these competencies to grow their leadership influence at any stage of their career. LLIFE represents five core domains of leadership at Mayo Clinic: • Leads Self • Leads Others • Inspires Others • Forward Thinking • Engages Others The model was developed in response to leadership readiness and succession planning gaps and validated through research, surveys, and input from more than 200 leaders across the organization. The LLIFE framework identifies the competencies and behaviors that most differentiate effective leaders at Mayo. This episode will explore: • The origin and purpose of LLIFE • The validation process and structure • Why trust and critical thinking emerged as essential differentiators • What assessment data is revealing about leader strengths and growth areas • Practical steps individuals can take to develop these competencies
What does it mean to rise when the expectations placed on you were never meant to hold your full self? In this episode of Hmong Women Rising, Mayo Clinic social worker Elizabeth Moua, APSW, and DLMP developer Kristen Moua share honest reflections on growing up within Hmong cultural expectations that can both shape and constrain women. Through personal stories of advocacy, identity, and courage, they explore the moments that challenged them to question who they were told to be, and who they chose to become. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, their journeys reveal the strength it takes to reclaim authenticity and create space for Hmong women to live, lead, and rise on their own terms. Join us in this conversation—and ask yourself: what does rising look like for you?
What does it look like to choose kindness every single day, no matter the season of life? In this episode of The GLOWdown, host Tiffani Satterelli is joined by Danielle Teal, founder of Caring Acts of Kindness Everywhere and Senior Program Coordinator for Joy at Mayo Clinic & Physician Well‑Being, for a thoughtful conversation about finding joy in the journey through intentional, everyday acts that quietly make a difference. Danielle has practiced at least one intentional act of kindness every single day since 2007, a commitment that began after a stranger unexpectedly paid for her gas in 2007 and grew into a life‑shaping calling. Over the years, those daily acts of kindness have created ripple effects across her community and workplace, reminding others that small moments truly matter. She shares how choosing kindness became a way of life, including how she continued showing up for others while navigating breast cancer treatment, documenting her journey and continuing to serve others even during a deeply personal season. Her story reflects a steady, lived‑out joy rooted in connection, purpose, and faithfulness to what matters most. Together, Danielle and Tiffani reflect on joy that feels genuine, kindness that shows up in everyday moments, serving others, and a way of living that reminds us that joy lives in connection, blooms through compassion, and grows when we lead with intention and allow our light to shine.
