Our Favorite Quotes

“That analytic buyer is that very very perfectionist like a detail oriented buyer, you need all the information readily available, so like the price, the features, you need to be able to make that empowered decision by yourself. Zoned in, you need to make that decision and then go to your person and say hey the decision is made.” 

“The amicable buyer wants to be put in a little love cocoon, they want to be loved by you, they want to be loved by the audience.” 

“The driver buyers are drawn to that undeniable authority, you don’t shy away from money talk and you don’t shy away from showing up without presents and owning your wins in a form of inspirational and transformational. You are living the dream.” 

“Ride or die expressive followers, once they trust you they are rocking with you. They are in love with you. That's why I'm always saying you are your best asset.”

Happy Holidays! I can’t believe another year has passed and we have so much to look back on and look forward to. In 2022, I took a major step back. I needed to restructure my time, set more boundaries, and maintain my business. There were so many changes in my business and in my personal life I am so thankful this year taught me things I truly needed and I will most definitely be taking them into 2023! In this episode I’ll be discussing the many challenges, successes and changes in 2022 and what's coming, what's going and what's here to stay for 2023, a New Year! 

In this episode, we cover…

• Reviewing the year in my business
• upcoming ambitions and new adventures
• predictions, preparing and positioning myself for 2023
• setting clear boundaries
• What's coming, what's going and what's here to stay
• committing and challenging yourself in the future

“Are you committing to showing up everyday in the way that you need to? Are you committed to working out your schedule and setting aside the time even when you don’t feel like it? What are you committing to? Make the freaking commitment and get accountability to hold you to that commitment.” 

““The influx of people entering this space created lack of quality, to put it lightly, because there is no regulation in this space, there is no need necessarily for certifications or years of experience so it’s this really cool message of like hey, anyone can do this. You can hop in and become anything you want, but the asterisk to that is that you still have to deliver.”

I am the first one to admit I over complicate almost everything in my life down to small details surrounding my day to day. So why do we over complicate things and why do we try to justify those complications instead of working on our thought patterns and well being? Well, in this episode we jump in to fine print questions, solutions, and everything in between! We can give ourselves a million excuses of why we do and think the way we do, but the simplest answer is we have to STOP making excuses and start actually doing the hard tasks of working on simplifying the simple details in our life. 

In this episode, we cover…

• Action steps to take to simplify your life
• A few ways we over think small things
• Calming the chaos
• Working through stress and why your body could use a break
• What to do and how to manage the complicated tasks

“Society has trained us to over complicate things by essentially working longer hours or always doing the most.” 

“If there is a simple solution, it may not turn out or have all the factors the exact way that we want it.”

“If you grew up in a chaotic environment for many many years, there’s a chance that your nervous system may feel more comfortable in that chaotic environment.”

Summary

Starting a business is tough work, and we all love to think we can do it all by ourselves. We like to think it’s us against the world and we have to tackle the hardest parts of owning a business all alone, but that is simply not true. While working almost all day, making no money and trying to figure it out all by myself was my strategy (which I am not recommending) there are so many resources now to utilize and take full advantage of that can truly help you. I will be the first to say that owning a business is not for everyone, but if you have the drive and passion to make it through those tough points in your first couple years, there is magic waiting for you on the other side.

Our Favorite Quotes

“I was just lost, trying to do everything under the sun.”

“I was working 10-12 hour days, and I didn’t even have a business. Half that time was spent researching stuff because I wanted to know it all and this is definitely one of my worst mistakes.” 

“Something that I would do if I was starting over is make sure I had at least one offer even if that was my only offer that was over $1,000.” 

"I had built a personal brand, where I showed up every single day before I even made a single dollar."

We are in our 100th episode of The Made For More Podcast and to switch it up this week we are dissecting and going into full detail of the past three years of business. A behind-the-scenes evolution, what my business has looked liked over the years, changes, and getting into the nitty gritty breakdown of the successful and maybe not so successful moments of being in in this business over the years. 

In this episode, we cover…

• Year one, two and three teams breakdown
• Business growth and scaling
• Investing year by year
• Restructing and building again
• What I am focusing on now
• My biggest lessons after each year

"It too so much effort on the backend to maintain it, because when you have a business of the scale of half a million to one million, it's not just relying on you. You're not just running the show, and it's not even people, it's the infrastucture that needs to be able to handle it in a smooth way."

Summary There are two big things that hold people back from getting what they want: priorities and assessment/fear of risk. We often tell ourselves we really want something but our actions say otherwise in that we are likely not truly prioritizing the actions needed to change. So they hard question becomes not just "how bad do you really want this?" but "how bad do you really want this in regards to what you will have to trade or sacrifice to prioritize and achieve that thing?" Lastly, we provide a new way to think about risk, because most people only think about risk from one side.

Our Favorite Quotes

"I think a lot of us get stuck at wanting to see the top of the staircase, before we've ever taken the first or second step."

"That bold, messy, uncomfottable action is going to help you get the data and data is really the way you're going to be able to make those decisions one at a time without trying to make ten decisions and map out your whole 5 year plan at one time."

We start by forgiving ourselves for our past mistakes and learning from them. We can reach out to others for support and understanding. Also, we can use our experiences to help others who are struggling with similar issues. Shame doesn't have to hold us back; it can be the catalyst for positive change.

In this episode, we cover…
