Go First with Anna Kuusela

Heyyyy you, welcome back to Good Vibes Only!

If there's something I've learned over the past two years as an entrepreneur, it is the importance of managing how I feel. The better I feel, the more inspired action I can take!

In today's episode I talk about the importance of emotional self-regulation, in particular if you want to create new results. We can get attached to certain emotions, even worse we can wait for something/someone to come and 'save us' rather than realising that it is by radical responsibility of self and your state management only, that the change can happen. Btw, I'm not saying working with your feelings isn't important and sometimes (oftentimes?!) there's certainly a need for that - but we also need to recognise how important it is to build that self-awareness so we can commit to creating desired feelings from within...and then go from there. MAGIC.

Okay it's time for some more good vibes and today we're getting all vibey about how we define ourselves...

BUT - Before I do that - if you're a fellow female entrepreneur and want to do your marketing & sales in a way that feels good to you, while making more money, I have something for you! Check this out - we'll start in less than two weeks! https://www.annakuusela.com/The-Serve-Experience)

Today is golden. It all starts from my membership discussion with my amazing ladies on how we see ourselves. One of my clients did a casual mic drop: I just want to be more free on how I define myself and not see myself in any specific box. BOOM. And so today I'm going to riff about this: how we can put ourselves in boxes that don't support our growth (or worst case scenario: let someone else draw the box for us like I did!) and just let those labels and boxes become the narrative of our life.

Remember, you are beyond powerful. You are CREATIVE. You can change. You're not a tree, said the famous Jim Rohn. This episode covers it all: the power of the subconscious, the power of stories...and the power of taking that power back! HA! I hope you love it xx

Welcome back to Good Vibes Only and today's special episode!

(Before I get going…my course for my fellow female entrepreneurs to get your marketing & sales aligned with yourself, is OPEN now! Read the details and secure your spot, before they're all gone, here: https://www.annakuusela.com/The-Serve-Experience)

Okay so indeed, welcome to today's episode with a super special guest, my mentor Mr. Andrew Jennings. Andrew is a retail veteran with nearly 50 (!!!) years of experience in a variety of leadership positions across huge retail brands, such as Harrods, Saks Fifth Avenue and Karstadt.

I initially met Andrew while I still worked in consulting and I have had the pleasure of working with Andrew on several occasions. Why I wanted to bring Andrew to GVO is that not only am I inspired by him each time we meet but I truly admire his approach to life, his mindset and gusto how he approaches everything. After listening to this episode I'm sure you can feel some of his special energy!

In the episode we talk about the importance of passion, why confidence is key, what (really) makes Andrew happy, how he keeps thriving, and how he's experienced failures in his life. Talking to Andrew makes me think…if there's even some of that mindset I can emit…I'm going to have a very fulfilling and successful life!

If you wish to read more about Andrew, here's an excellent article: https://www.drapersonline.com/people/the-drapers-interview/transformation-man-andrew-jennings-45-years-in-retail

Welcome back to Good Vibes Only - today's special!

Before I jump in, all my fellow female entrepreneurs! My upcoming sales & marketing will be live tomorrow! Check out all the details annakuusela.com and if you feel called...I'd love to have you!

Okay, so today's another topic I have wanted to talk about for a long time: namely what do other people represent in our lives. I'm talking about the challenging ones in particular today...you know, the ones that seem to always be pushing the right buttons?! I realised there was a little bit of a pattern here in my own behaviour...I kept attracting the same problems, just through different people. It was only I realised it was my vibe, my mindset, my thoughts and actions that were keeping this pattern stuck...and so I was able to change it!

In this episode I share how I TRY(!) to be curious about other people, keep an open mind and be open to learn from anyone. Literally anyone can be a teacher! This is not only more interesting (as you try to figure out why someone's in your life) but also you learn so much about yourself in the process. I hope you enjoy this episode as this is - again - one of those things that has been a gamechanger for me.

Welcome to Good Vibes Only - I'm so glad to have you back here with me for today's gold dust!

Before I jump in, all my fellow female entrepreneurs! My upcoming sales & marketing waitlist is live - sign up here for your promo + all the details

https://www.annakuusela.com/sales-course-waitlist

You know, I've wanted to talk about today's topic for SO LONG! A lot of us (perhaps women in particular) have a tendency to think a lot what others think of us, and we want to make sure everyone's happy around us. Sure, that's cool but it cannot be at the expense of you saying YES to everything and tiring yourself out. Remember, if you ever fly, they NEVER say please put the oxygen mask on everyone else before you assist yourself.

I strongly believe that when we look after ourselves first, we are also in service to others the most.

In this episode I challenge you look at your mindset behind saying no. Saying no has nothing to do with being difficult - it's your choice to focus your energy what you're here to magnify, after all. Depending on where you are on your 'no journey' (lol), I'm also sharing a few tips on how to make your no game even stronger. FYI I've still got plenty to work on here...

Finally, if I don't have you yet, let's put it this way:

Say no = decision to spend your energy on things that make your life uniquely yours.

Ok, so today we're all about mindset! Not that I don't discuss this topic often lol but I've gotten a lot of questions around the 'how' and 'what can I do' so today I'm dedicating one entire episode on this!

Mindset is that one crucial thing that we must continuously work on - especially when we're working on upleveling ourselves and working on new, big goals that ask a lot from us. In this episode I share some examples and really practical ways how you can work on your mindset yourself and make sure you're not sabotaging your good intentions. You might want to have a notepad as there's a lot of gold dust in this episode!
