Improving your health and growing your business have more in common than meets the eye. 3 weeks on a restricted diet to cleanse my body gave me invaluable lessons to growing my business. The recommendation for the diet came at an important time in my journey to remain healthy and vibrant. My health has always been a top priority of mine. I took a good look at how I prepared for this cleanse, had a start and finish date, set myself up for success and the data I collected along the way. I applied those exact principles to building my business. How you do one thing, is how you do everything. Besides releasing toxins and unwanted weight, I learned a great deal about growing a successful and profitable business. In this episode, I share the lessons I learned to improve my health and how growing my business is the same.    Check out what you’ll learn: Doing the work and working the plan isn’t always glamorous and the results are never instantaneous.

The hardest and most gratifying work you’ll ever do is on the person you’re becoming.  That’s what I believe and I walk my talk. My own personal journey has allowed me to find and dismantle what once kept me small. Walking this path and doing the work allows me to see exactly what the blindspots are that are keeping my clients from moving forward in pursuing their dreams. It’s these very things that also prevent them from deeply connecting with their audience when they speak.   This episode is about how the self work is never a wasted journey and touches so many areas of your life.   Check out what you’ll learn: How not feeling worthy of anything puts you on the hamster wheel to prove yourself constantly and what you can do about it. Learning to love yourself, leads to trusting yourself which is key to building a strong foundation for everything in your life.  How all of my personal growth, experience and observations make me a better coach, person and speaker.  The results my clients get when we work today is life changing because I see the signs what we need to work on to help them show up 110% as the real version of themselves.    Links and resources mentioned in this episode: Get on the waitlist to write a signature speech you’ll be proud delivering!

What others say about you has nothing to do with you personally. Too many times I see people taking feedback as a personal judgment on them and their character. That’s not what feedback is at all and it took me a long time to understand that.  Today, I see feedback through a different lense and it’s the way I support my clients in reviewing feedback as well. I’ll take you BTS as I review feedback from a recent presentation and you’ll hear what I’ll do next time as a result of one person’s honest feedback.   Check out what you’ll learn: Feedback is never about you personally and how to see it through the lense of the person giving the feedback How I appreciate the neutral and not so positive feedback for my next speech. You can apply this theory to programs you run. How to be curious when reviewing feedback and what to do afterwards that will get you more opportunities, from speaking gigs to more clients.

Stories sell ideas, products, services and beliefs! Tell the right story. Telling yourself the right story is one of the stories that you need to be repeating to yourself but what about others?

You have two ears and one mouth, to listen more than you speak. More often than not, we fall into passive listening, where we’re waiting for a break in the conversation to speak again. Active listening is an unutilized skill and will help you gleam more information about your presentation, what clients want more or and what really resonated with them. Public speaking is a skill that you’ll always be fine tuning and changing. To take information that’s not included on feedback forms is one way of creating new presentations for the future and perfecting the one you’ve given. On today’s episode we dive into the benefits of really listening to what your audience is asking for in their comments and questions.   Check out what you’ll learn: How to capture what’s being said and asked without relying on your memory, which really can be either forgotten or summarized later when you’re recalling the information. What audience questions and comments are really telling you about your topic and future topics. How to construct your own feedback from what others are saying. Tips and tricks to gather and analyze this data from both in person and virtual speaking events.   PLUS, you can use these cues during one on one conversations with clients, family and friends.

Your life won’t or business won’t change by sitting around waiting for success to show up on your doorstep.

And then wonder what’s wrong?  This is a real and raw episode for me to share how I came face to face with my own insecurities and how I burned my princess dress, which I didn’t even know I was consciously wearing.

Why is the topic of money so triggering and considered bragging if you do have it to talk about? If you only had to work hard for money, then all those construction workers building houses and repaving roads in the middle of the summer’s heat would all be wealthy. Having money has nothing to do with how smart or hard you work. The way you think about and feel towards money will either attract more into your life or push it away. Recognizing how money makes you feel when it’s around and scarce is very revealing and a reflection of your check book.   Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode: You have a relationship with money like any other human. Do you even know how you’re being in your relationship with money? Learn a writing exercise to try and reveal your relationship with money. This valuable exercise might unveil a few areas you’re not being supportive of money. What beliefs do you have about money? Some of your beliefs we’re probably handed down to you from your parents and teachers.

How much should I be charging? How can I raise my rates? 2 common questions I hear around money and pricing.   Money can be so triggering, especially for many women who are building their business. There seems to be a stigma for charging money for what you enjoy doing and NOT doing it for the money. I want you to be able to pay your bills and more, while sleeping at night knowing what you do is serving others to do their best work. It’s a domino effect.   Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode: There is no standard on rates in the coaching industry! My clients know I’ll coach them out of their ‘beginner rates’ mentality People put value on what they pay for. It’s imperative your rates reflect your value and the market you’re working with The exact exercise I run my clients through to determine their prices, so they pay their bills and aren’t working 24/7 YHow to own your value and expertise before anyone will feel confident in hiring you   PLUS, I want you to feel good about the exchange of service you give your clients and the money you’re receiving.

  Why do we give numbers so much meaning about us, our business and worthiness? Today, we’re getting a little geeky and talking about numbers. I’m taking the sting out of those vanity metrics like money in the bank, monthly earnings or the number of followers you have.  Numbers are DATA! Let me repeat that, the number of followers you have is data and nothing more, unless you give it meaning. Take the emotion out of the data and you can make sound decisions for your business.   Check out what you’ll learn: Why there’s so much peer pressure for the 10K IG followers or $10K months and how you can reframe what they mean How to make better decisions in your business by evaluating the data, so that you do more of what works and less of what doesn’t What kind of data do I track and how   Links and resources: Join us in the Private Facebook Community - Entrepreneurs Making An Impact  Grab the FREE resource Go from Unknown to Visible.

This book should be required reading for everyone.   Check out what you’ll learn: Reading the 4 Agreements again years later has a different meaning for me today than when I originally read the book.
