This week in the guest chair, Dr. Lakila Bowden shares her powerful journey from leading thousands inside Fortune 500 companies to co-founding ISee Technologies, a Black sister-owned, disability-led consulting firm now earning seven figures.After leaving corporate in 2019, Lakila teamed up with her sister, Camille, to build a company trusted by brands like Disney, Kraft Heinz, and the EPA for high-impact training, inclusion, and workforce wellness programs. What makes her work different is how she blends corporate strategy, healing, and public speaking to help organizations and people thrive without burnout.In this episode, Lakila opens up about the moment she walked away from the “known,” how she rebuilt her identity outside of corporate titles, and how speaking became a major accelerator in her business growth. She also breaks down the inner and outer transformation required to grow with your purpose, honor your well-being, and lead from a place of wholeness.In This Episode, Dr. Lakila Shares:<ul><li>The pivotal moment she knew she had to leave corporate America</li><li>How she and her sister built ISee Technologies into a 7-figure consulting firm</li><li>Why public speaking became a core revenue driver in her business</li><li>How personal healing shaped her approach to leadership and entrepreneurship</li><li>Her framework for helping organizations and individuals thrive without burning out</li></ul><h1>Highlights Include</h1>00:00: Intro02:10: Starting IC Technologies with her sister Camille04:30: Becoming a speaker and author and how speaking scaled her impact08:20: Building a disability-led, wellness-centered company12:00: How corporate strategy + personal healing became her business superpower16:15: The growth that came after walking away from the “known”20:45: Helping organizations cultivate inclusion and sustainable wellness26:30: Advice for anyone ready to pivot from corporate into purposeWatch this episode on YouTube and listen on all podcast appsApple Podcasts:<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323</a>Spotify:<a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8t?si=8daf52a57e054042" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8t?si=8daf52a57e054042</a>Links Mentioned in This Episode<ul><li>ISee Technologies: <a href="https://www.iseetechinc.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.iseetechinc.com/</a></li><li>Achieve Work Life Alignment by Dr. Lakila Bowden <a href="http://www.lakilabowden.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.lakilabowden.com/</a>&nbsp;</li></ul>Click here to subscribe via RSS feed (non-iTunes feed): <a href="http://sidehustlepro.libsyn.com/rss" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://sidehustlepro.libsyn.com/rss</a><h1>Guest Social Media Info</h1>Lakila's Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lakilaj/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/lakilaj/</a>ISee Technologies Website: <a href="https://www.iseetechinc.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.iseetechinc.com/</a>Side Hustle Pro – <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sidehustlepro/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@sidehustlepro</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/sidehustlepro/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SideHustlePro</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
