Rise Up: Feel Seen, Heard & Valued with Diana Patton

In today's special episode of #InsHER, I sit down with Diana Patton, the Rise Advocates® Academy, and International Speaker, Consultant, and Author. Diana founded the Academy in 2016 to empower professional women by helping them build confidence, embrace their personal journeys, and advocate for themselves and others. She equips women with tools to navigate workplace challenges and drive meaningful change. Additionally, her Rise with Diana platform offers coaching, consulting, and corporate training to foster inclusive workplace cultures.

Reflecting on her journey, Diana acknowledges the struggles of past generations, particularly her grandmother, who overcame systemic barriers. She remains committed to ensuring women feel valued, understand their worth, and rise above external validation, even as DEI initiatives face challenges. Her defining moment came in 2020, prompting deep self-reflection and a focus on character, resilience, and internal strength. She emphasizes that true power comes from within, beyond titles and appearances, and encourages women to embrace their authenticity, personal growth, and leadership without diminishing others.
