These amazing experts gave their time, and I wanted to make sure to get these episodes published - because they're still valid, and today's episode is an excellent example. Dr. Michelle Mazur is a messaging expert who works with brilliant business owners who are shaking things up but having trouble talking about it. In this episode we are going to talk about how to do your marketing in a way that is in alignment with your values, in a way that isn't slimy or under the "bro marketing" category. Because YES, there is a way to market your business in a way that is ethical and aligned with your values and integrity. How do YOU feel about marketing - both marketing that comes at you as a consumer, and also in your own business? Listen in and let me know!

When it's something good, it can hurt that you weren't included. When it's something bad though, it might be a reminder that maybe not fitting in isn't necessarily a bad thing. Today's episode is all about what to do when you feel like you just don't fit in.

Have you ever worked with someone and could tell that they just weren't super jazzed about what they were doing? Maybe it was a teacher that wasn't really present in class, or someone that came to fix your furnace and you could tell they would rather be doing literally ANYTHING else. Being fully aligned with your business and having proper boundaries will mean more clarify, confidence and excitement. Simplifying processes will open that even more. In today's episode we are going to talk all about alignment and why it matters in your business, marketing and sales. AND, this is the official announcement of my rebranding and the new name of the podcast! Listen in and let me know what you think!

A little more tough love in this final episode in this series: You will never outperform your identity. Today's episode is Part 8 in the 8 part series Must Have Skills for Success in Business - and I saved the best for last. Okay, maybe not the best, but definitely one of the most important. Today we are going to chat all about MINDSET. What does that actually mean? Why does it matter? More importantly, I want you to ask yourself: what stories am I holding onto that are stopping me from growing and reaching my biggest goals? What beliefs do I have that need to change? What isn't serving me anymore that I need to let go of? I know this is a big topic, but it's so incredibly important!

Tough love time: YOU WILL FAIL. And that's okay. Welcome to part 7 of this series on Must Have Skills for success in business! We are going to talk about something that hurts my little recovering perfectionist heart sometimes - failure. Because the reality is that you WILL fail if you go into business - and that's okay. It's not the end of the world. Business - and life, really - is just a series of trying new things, seeing if they work, and if they don't, you try something new. If only it was that easy to actually EMBRACE that, right? Let's chat ALL about failure - and I promise you, this episode will leave you feeling uplifted and maybe even a little bit lighter, this is NOT a doom and gloom episode.
