Bold Business Podcast

Knowing the bottom line is vital to maximizing what you get from your business. Understanding the mechanics is also important — how you make money, what difference you make in the world, what you can be best at and why you are doing what you do.

In this broadcast, you will discover how to shift your thinking to have a successful business the way you want it, the importance of doing more overall planning, and when to let go so that all the planning work has a chance to get results.

Jess Dewell talks with Clint White, Founder of Tattoos Not Brands Inc., Author, and Podcast Host, about the importance of a business strategy achieved through deliberate and considered branding.

Not noticing the signs of decision fatigue, a decline in work quality, and increased stress can lead to the perfect storm that can potentially destroy your business.

Keeping your head in the game and staying disciplined to see big change is difficult. The lessons that come from such dedication to building a thriving business include: remembering your gut is an informant to be listened to as part of the decision-making process; rigidness creates missed opportunities, and that change is time-intensive as well as messy.

Jess Dewell talks with Kiley Peters, CEO and Founder of Brainchild Studios® and RAYNE IX, about gaining insight by slowing down the struggles that show up during a long period of change and how to embrace change and transition to something new with consistent action.

Your commitment to supporting your team is more complex than ever before. The ability to help others move through tough situations comes from knowing your boundaries and the boundaries around the way your company completes work.

How we approach our work — identify then solve a problem, reduce costs, produce more, and follow a process for efficiency — can impact the short term. To adapt and flex with change, we must add emotional intelligence.

Jess Dewell and Dr. Cassandra LeClaire, Communication Consultant, discuss how compassion and boundaries work together to create high-performance teams. Learn how to ask for what you want so others know how to support you, how acting with compassion can look different every day, and how healthy boundaries reflect our goals and values.

Accountability is elusive, but it doesn't have to be. In fact, you may have all that is needed except for time and discipline. Too much time management drastically impacts your ability to connect and fully show up to minimize risk, expand capacity, and have truthful conversations. In this #AskJess Anything question roundup from the Fast Track Your Business program, Jess Dewell focuses on how to reduce failure by intentionally designing points of accountability.

The impact you can achieve is directly related to how and what you think about … including avoidance, over-positivity, and even accidental oversight. Knowing what work is necessary — and what work is possible — you can achieve more than you ever thought possible.

In this program you will learn to be ruthless about what is possible; that you can understand the nuances of what you can control; and that you are a model for what behavior is desired. Jess Dewell will share how a commitment to a weekly Present Retreat™ will give you a way to design more accountability into your life and business.

Stories that create connections may not be the obvious ones. When what we shape and share doesn't obtain the desired marketing result, we feel immense frustration. That friction is where to take a closer look at shared stories, set goals, and discover where there is a gap.

Recognizing a communal communication shorthand helps us acknowledge that outside of those situations, we may be missing something when talking with others.

Jess Dewell talks with Gabrielle Dolan, Author and Keynote Speaker at Gabrielle Dolan Consulting, about making your communication authentic. Discover how to dig into many different types of stories, the stories from which you can learn, and be courageous in sharing them.

Regardless of skill or background, you are always learning and taking risks, constantly checking in with your gut and listening to your instinct about when to step into something new. The foundational piece is WHY you are doing what you are doing.
