    The only social media platform that creates content for you with the power of AI 

    Kate Bradley Chernis is the Founder & CEO of Lately, which uses AI to automatically transform longform content like blogs, podcasts and videos into dozens of "smart" social posts it learns will yield the highest engagement from your audience.

Prior to founding Lately, Kate served 20 million listeners as Music Director and on-air host at Sirius/XM. She’s also an award-winning radio producer, engineer and voice talent with 25 years of national broadcast communications, brand-building, sales and marketing expertise

  • #25: Mind Your Business - Tips to Help You Simplify the Journey

    Welcome to our show, Connect Inspire Create.  I am Carol, a digital marketing coach helping women aspiring to simply start the business and take their dreams to plans along with my co-host Trish, a professional certified life coach who helps determined people navigate their big life hurdles and come out stronger on the other side.

    We share conversations for women entrepreneurs from around the globe who appreciate travel, a healthy lifestyle and are eager to learn tools and resources to grow their business and thrive in their lives. 

    This week we are exploring the journey of being an entrepreneur and thoughts on simplifying the journey.  Do you offer too many services or products that your clients feel overwhelmed?

    The asking: anyone starting or in the thick of a new business, or new goal - must start with these questions:

    1. What problem am I solving with this new goal or business? 
    2. How much money do I first “need” than “want” - to earn?
    3. What’s my deadline to achieve this personal or financial goal?
    4. Unless you have a multi-year timeline or can hire a team of support staff, this WILL be a full-time commitment at first. Are you able and willing to take on a full-time job? Or is this a “hobby”?

  • #23 How Trauma Affects Our Lives with our guest Dr. Don Wood

    Welcome to our show, Connect Inspire Create.  I am Carol, a digital marketing coach helping women aspiring to simply start their solopreneur journey and take their dreams to plans along with my co-host Trish, a professional certified life coach who helps determined people address anxiety and burnout to return to their best “center” to enjoy a more balanced, fulfilling life.

    We share conversations for women entrepreneurs from around the globe who appreciate travel, a healthy lifestyle and are eager to learn tools and resources to grow their business and thrive in their lives. 

    In this episode:

    We are chatting with Dr. Don Wood, from the Inspired Performance Institute who will be sharing his expertise on the topic of how trauma affects our lives. We do hope that this episode will change how you view the impact of trauma in your life and how you can start moving forward today.

    An introduction to our guest today:

    Dr. Don Wood developed the TIPP method after spending years researching how atmospheric conditions™ affect our minds and impact our lives. He went back to school later in life to get his Ph.D. in clinical counseling and psychology, to learn how to heal his daughter’s Crohn's disease and his wife’s autoimmune disease.. 

    The results have been impressive. Dr. Wood has helped trauma survivors from the Boston Marathon bombing attack, the Las Vegas shooting, to highly successful executives and world-class athletes perform at their best.

    Dr. Wood has written two books about his research including the science about how our minds work and why we experience our own unique perspective of the world. Both books, You Must be out of your Mind and Emotional Concussions, are focused on how we can all make the desired changes by allowing our minds to reset and reboot. 

    LINKS:
    Sign up here to get the 1st chapter of "Emotional Concussions" and learn how to

    • Fall asleep faster & with less anxiety every night
    • Put an end to anxiety and panic attacks
    • End anxious & intrusive thoughts 
    • Feel more joy & connection every day
    • Perform at your best everyday

    Don’s Website, Facebook & YouTube Channel

    Thanks for listening if you have loved what you have listened to today about learning more about how trauma affects our lives, we would love you to share it with your friends.
