• My name is Falyn Satterfield.

• Conscious marketing is a term that I have really culminated in the online space and brought a lot of awareness to.

[03:00] - I know that you had a near-death experience. How did you experience that? And what was it that brought you to this event?

• One night, as I was trying to fall asleep after a long day of school and work. I felt my heart beating hard and fast. And it was so hard that it was hurting my ribs and my whole chest was just shaking, we finally called 911. 

[10:58] - How did you make sure you're not sticking to the victimhood of the story?

• I didn't think it was going to last as many years as it lasted. I didn't think my healing journey was going to be that long. 
•  I think that that naivete really helped me. 

[18:54] -  Where do you actually start when you started to decide to take it in your own hands?

• So it does make a difference to have the right doctor with you who will listen to you.

[29:07] - What do you think was the big breaking point for you in your healing from your heart disease? 

• The big thing for me with that was definitely getting out of all my food allergies.

[31:50] - How do you explain that out of the blue you got a food allergy that almost killed you?

•  I think I had it my whole life. 

[35:14] - How did you start cutting out all of the things that were not serving you anymore?

• Food and lifestyle that was so easy.

[40:52] - What do you think is the biggest problem in the American diet?

• the Quarantine is another perfect example, what sold out? Junk food sold out, all the ice cream sold out. Do you know what didn't sell out? Fruits, vegetables, turmeric ginger, vitamin C.

[53:27] - What does efficiency mean to you?

• You'll be more efficient in your business. If you're sleeping well, eating well, exercising and being healthy, and taking care of yourself. It's less sick days, fewer mistakes due to stress.

[58:40] - If you had to start all over again, but you keep the knowledge that you have, which would be the three things that you would do over and over again to get to the success where you are now?

• Number one I never would have gotten that sick. 
• Number two, I never would have taken as many medications.

Lauren Gordon is a serial entrepreneur, business mentor, and mother. She helps coaches and professional services businesses clarify their message and attract high paying clients consistently through the Art of Social Storytelling.

A college drop-out, left hometown of 600 people when she was 18, bought a one-way ticket alone to Australia with $500 to her name. The coming years were a crazy ride as she lost her best friend to cancer at 22 and found out she was unexpectedly pregnant shortly after. In "hustle" mode with her business by then and not willing to sacrifice time with her daughter once she got here, Lauren had no choice but to find a more efficient way to keep growing her business.

In today’s episode, Lauren and Monique are talking about how Lauren kept growing her coaching business from 0-6 figures in 8 months while she was pregnant (and did it again while we were talking, but this time in secret!). Now she is serving hundreds of coaches helping them convey their message clearly & attract high-end clients predictably.

HOT TOPICS OF THE EPISODE

[01:39] - Monique introduces her guest, Lauren Raye Gordon.

[02:20] - Share with us the story about the time you moved to Australia and how you started your business.

• I wanted to be in a much more calm environment, with more nature with more work-life balance. And so I looked at a map and I had my finger on either Europe or Australia. And I ended up picking Australia. 
• I now run a multiple six-figure online coaching business. But I started as a freelance copywriter, I worked my way up. And it was a crazy three years. 

[17:02] - Lauren talks about how she met her partner and unexpectedly got pregnant.

[22:12] - How did the new partner by that time react to the pregnancy?

• This person when I found out I was pregnant was extremely supportive. 

[27:25] - How did your audience react to this whole story? Because I know you were very open about it and shared it.

• When I first initially shared it, there was shocked but there was all around love, and congratulations. And people already kind of saw me as a mother figure and a leader. So they were really excited for me to actually become a mother.

[29:44] - Do you think sharing a story like this could end up being “oversharing”?

• What you want to ask yourself instead is what is the message that I want to share with my story and who do I want to reach with my story, who is the actual person that I want to attract with my story.

[31:43] - Lauren explains about boundaries and standards.

[35:24] - How do we know what standards we have? 

• The first thing to look at, are the things that you're not happy within your life.

[39:22] - How would you deal then with the pushback? 

• So in terms of dealing with that pushback, the way to do that is to get very clear on what your message is and why you actually care about getting that message out into the world. 

[42:08] - What exercise do you want to share with our listeners that would be your favorite one to get clarity on your message and why you want to share it?

• The first exercise to do is get clear on what problem you are actually solving through your product or service.

[44:51] - Which question would you wish that your clients would ask you more?

• Probably a mindset question.

[47:35] - What do you think are the most important mindset traits that six or seven-figure business owners have that the people who want to get there don't have?

• Do not try to solve problems that do not exist.

[50:30 - What does efficiency mean to you?

• Efficiency as a business owner is setting up your business to function without you always being present.
• But on a smaller scale efficiency to me means getting the right things done consistently.

[52:43] - Which of the three things would you do over and over again, to get to success if you have to start out over?

• Number one is my mindset.
• The second thing I do is market and sell.
• The third thing is I talked to my existing clients and my existing students.
