EP 26: Get Paid to Write Your Book

I won’t ask you if you want to write a book - the answer to that is easy.  Either you do or you don’t.  What I will ask is this:  If you knew that you could get paid to write a book and that you would be supported throughout the entire process by a team of experts who knew exactly what to do and when, WOULD YOU WRITE A BOOK?  Still wondering about whether writing a book is right for you?  Tune into this week’s podcast to hear what Hybrid Global Publishing founder, Karen Strauss, has to say about it. I think you’ll find yourself pleasantly surprised… and motivated!

EP 25: Creating a FUN and Fulfilling Life

Think about your first vehicle.  How much fun did you have in that car or truck?  Did it bring you joyful experiences?  While we’re on the subject of vehicles, I’d like to introduce you to Paul Long, self-described “master of shenanigans,” keynote speaker, and author of the book Fundamism: Connecting to Life Through F.U.N.  He is talking to us today about a specific vehicle – one that you can invite into your life to create more fun, joy, and fulfillment.

EP 24: Making Value Tangible

Our current economy is like a modern-day gold rush.  Everyone is putting their art, their work, their service, out into the market.  How do you stand out from the rest?  What will give you that edge you need to be appealing to potential clients?  You want your potential clients to be emotionally moved.  You want them to realize, in a very real way, that you have the answer to a burning question they may not even know they had.  You want to make value tangible.

EP 23: Getting Unstuck

For as many women who have become successful entrepreneurs, there are also women who have found themselves seemingly buried in the muck.  You know the feeling:  Over-analyzing, over-thinking, overwhelmed.  You’re stuck!  Fortunately, my guest for today’s podcast has a formula for getting you out of that mess and back on track to success.

EP 22: Creating Community Through Networking

In this bonus interview special, I’m talking with my longtime friend, Julie Kraschinsky, entrepreneur and managing director of eWommenNetwork’s Calabasas, CA, chapter.  As a “gatherer of people,” Julie is a master at networking and building communities.  She’s going to share with us her expert tips on how to make the connections that lead to a community of resources, support, and even clients!  Want to know her secret?  It’s in the sauce!

EP 21 Finding Clients is Hard

Are clients truly hard to find?  Or is that a “scapegoat” thought tailored to get us out of doing the work we’re a little bit unsure of?  What if neither statement is wholly true?  Many people hold the belief, “Clients are hard to find.”  Newsflash!  You’re not alone!  Even better:  It just means your brain is functioning properly!
 
In this episode, I’ll ask you some questions to consider, the answers to which will help you through the fear of rejection and provide you with a logical response of trusting in yourself and the value of your product or program.  I’ll walk you through identifying other limiting thoughts, the emotions that accompany them, and how they might manifest.  Finally, I’ll give you the secret to transforming the idea that “Clients are hard to find” from a belief based in fear into a positive action inspired by your purpose.  As always, I’m going to keep it real and give you solid steps you can take to choose a perspective in any given situation that will produce the type of results you want.

EP 20: Getting Out of the Hustle Zone

Today's big question: Are you a hustler? Managing work-life balance can at times prove to be a huge challenge. But taking the steps to achieve a healthy balance of the two can be accomplished with a little guidance!
We sit down with Meredith Vaish, a self-proclaimed ex-hustler, and creator of Pause Box Clarity Coaching, to discuss the "hustle zone" vs. reaching the ideal "golden zone." Learn to empower and motivate yourself in your career from a place of self-love, rather than the gnawing need to prove your worth.

EP 18: Selling With Feminine Energy

This episode is so relevant to every woman who has sales responsibilities and sometimes has thoughts like this:

"I'm just not cut out for this"
Recently I had a revelation about where these thoughts come from and some important ways to think about what you are doing when you are selling.
