Balance in Business with Shari Teigman


Listen Later

This is one for not just the UK listeners but also my US listeners as Tracy is joined by native New Yorker,  creative strategist and performance mentor, Shari Teigman. She’s on the podcast to tell her remarkable story and how she worked hard to find a balance in business and how there is an island out there for everyone.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Shari had lost her spark and had no idea how to find it again. So she started with what she knew she didn't want and transformed entirely, divorcing and starting her own business as a full time parent. Shari studied for a life coaching certification and did yoga teacher training for a full year of immersion and knew she found her purpose.
  • Sahri’s whole business and brand is about being a maverick, an individual person who does it her way. Most entrepreneurs are the ones who wouldn’t be able to get a job for someone else, fitting in someone else's box just was never something she was going to do.
  • The biggest challenges as a parent for Shari when she was embarking on her business journey was allowing her children to keep their normality while she was being the dedicated mum who also had to be her business. It was a split and now she knows that she didn’t need to hide any of her personality and journey with them, they could have come along with her.
  • One simple tip. Give yourself permission to grow!
  • If you start your business by comparing yourself to someone else in terms of clients and income, you need to get off the comparison train. Go back to what YOU want, not what someone else wants. Don’t run towards something you don’t want because it will burn you out.

ABOUT THE GUEST

 

“Rewind 12 years and I was your standard Stepford wife living a life that looked beautiful from the outside but most certainly was not mine. I had lost my spark and I had no idea how to find it again. So I started with what I knew I didn't want and transformed entirely through a divorce, single mamaing the 2 most amazing boys in the world + navigating rebuilding a Self I knew was meant for much more.

After more dark nights of the soul than I can count, lots of dancing + cocktails mixed in for good measure, I found the rabbit hole of personal development and I dove in with all I had. I studied for a life coaching certification + a yoga teacher training for a full year of immersion and KNEW I found my purpose. With a sociology, art therapy and makeup artist background- uncovering what makes people tick melded with creativity runs in my veins. My role in the world is to help people unearth themselves for more success, fulfilment + joy on their terms.”
