Beyond Better with Stacy Ennis

In this week’s solo episode, I’m sharing a bit about my post-vacation work life and answering your questions about my book-writing program, Idea-to-Draft (ITD). From how it works to the investment to how much 1:1 time you’ll get with me, I break it all down so you understand the core elements of the program.
It’s one of my shorter episodes to date but packed with information you’ll want to know if you have a goal of writing a nonfiction book.

A little while back, I hosted an author celebration and meetup for my clients and students. It was a beautiful celebration of the amazing authors I get to work with, and I left overflowing with gratitude. I had such a good time that I was inspired to record a podcast episode with a look behind the scenes at the work I do with authors.

In this week’s replay episode, I share:

This episode is a bit sappy, I’ll admit. I love what I do. I love the authors I work with. I believe in them and in their ability to make a difference in this world.

This week on the podcast, I’m excited to have a conversation about aptitudes and uncovering hidden genius with author and YouScience cofounder, Betsy Wills. I met Betsy years ago and was inspired by her passion for aptitudes and how they play into uncovering one’s genius and living a full life. I even took the aptitude assessment through YouScience, which helped me understand myself and my gifts better.

Now, she’s gearing up for the publication of her book, Your Hidden Genius: The Science-Backed Strategy to Uncovering and Harnessing Your Innate Talents—and that’s exactly what we discuss in this episode: how to uncover your innate talents.

In this week’s episode, I share my update on life, work, and living in Portugal—five years in.

It’s hard to believe we left the US six years ago, moving first to Thailand and then to our home in Portugal’s Algarve. There have been ups and downs, and you might be curious: Is this our forever home? I’ll answer that question in this episode.

I also detail the opportunities and challenges I face in business, along with my assessment of the private medical system here, education, cost of living, safety, food, and overall quality of life. I try to be as detailed as possible in this episode to give you a look into the real life of a long-term expat in Europe.

Sometimes you meet people you automatically vibe with—and that’s how I felt when I met this week’s guest, Patrick Buchanan. In this episode, he shares his story as a Black, gay man in a lower-income family to becoming the VP of marketing at one of the top fashion companies in the US.

Patrick has collaborated with some of the biggest names in the music and entertainment industry, crafting culture-defining campaigns. Named one of Brand Innovator’s Top 40 Marketers and earning a spot on Nice Kicks’ Future 50 list, Patrick’s passion for marketing shines through his numerous accolades.

In our conversation, Patrick details some of the challenges he’s overcome and lessons gained from those experiences. Importantly, he explains how self-reinvention has helped him reach where he is today, and how you can lean into self-reinvention too.

We also talk fashion design, thrifting, and minimalism—all topics I love!
