This week on Braving Business we are diving into the emotions we have around money. I have a few different circumstances in my life that shaped my thoughts and emotions around money so I'm going to unpack those in this episode and help you to understand how to reframe your thoughts around money. If you have feelings of shame or unworthiness when it comes to thinking about money, this episode is for you!

In this episode I talk about:

+ The key moments of my life that my money story is shaped by

+ The "undercurrent" thoughts that become part of our story

+ Realizing the things you could do if you didn't have shameful thoughts around money

+ Becoming aware of the thoughts you have

+ Changing the meaning of past circumstances 

+ Why we hold onto certain thoughts

And more!

Welcome to another episode of Braving Business! This week we are talking about panic. As small business owners and entrepreneurs, we have to deal with a lot of problem-solving, and with that, comes panic. The thing is - we are always going to be dealt a new set of problems. As soon as we solve one problem, a new problem arises. Because of this, we have to learn to not lead from a place of panic. Panic inhibits us from moving forward. So in this episode, I’m going to teach you what to do instead of panic. Ready? Let’s dive in!

In this episode we talk about:

• What is panic?

• The ability to zoom out in order to find out why you’re in panic mode and decide whether or not it’s necessary

• How not leading from a place of panic will better serve your business

• Choosing to find the solution

• Not letting panic be the reason for not moving forward

In this episode I cover:

Hi everyone! Today we are going to be talking about how to make money when your main source of income is suddenly gone. I will be going through the three products that I think you should have at all times, what they are, and how you can create them. In this episode we are going to help you create these products in a way that are relevant to the world right now, and how they can create value. If you're a small business owner during the time of the corona crisis, your main product may be unavailable to you at the moment.
