Welcome to Insights at the Edge, produced by Sounds True.

My name is Tammy Simon. I'm the founder of Sounds True, and I'd love to take a moment to introduce you to the new Sounds True Foundation.

The Sounds True Foundation is dedicated to creating a wiser and kinder world by making transformational education widely available.

We want everyone to have access to transformational tools, such as mindfulness,

emotional awareness, and self-compassion, regardless of financial, social, or physical challenges.

The Sounds True Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to providing these transformational tools

to communities in need, including at-risk youth, prisoners, veterans, and those in developing

countries. If you'd like to learn more

or feel inspired to become a supporter, please visit soundstruefoundation.org.

In this episode of Insights at the Edge, my guest is Iman Ubu.

Iman Ubu is a Moroccan American entrepreneur, a former beauty queen, and a published scientist on a mission to change the women's media landscape.

Through her diverse experience with business, pageantry, and STEM, science, technology,

engineering, and mathematics, Iman Ubu noticed gender disparities in the workforce and an omnipresent

bias across printed and digital media. She founded S-W-A-A-A-Y.com, an all-in-one publishing platform for women,

to champion the voices of female changemakers through the power of storytelling.

With Sounds True, Iman Abu is releasing a new book. It's called The Glass Ledge, How to Breakthrough Self-Sabotage, Embrace Your Power, and Create Your Success.

Iman Abu found herself internalizing many of the limiting beliefs that women often encounter when we're in leadership roles in business,

that power is really a masculine force, that we need to be likable and we have to please people

if we want to be successful, that competition for women is just not healthy and more.

Iman investigates each one of these beliefs and more in a journey both to free herself

and also to free other women business leaders so that we can become unstoppable forces

of leading for good.
