Into The Wild

It's time to put down your phone and get out there.

Today we're joined by community builder and collaboration expert Danielle Wiebe. Danielle is the founder of Business Babes Collective, a global community of women that brings entrepreneurs and leaders together. She uses her expertise to help women find success through strategic collaborations.

It's important to build a community around your brand. Not only does it ease the isolation of entrepreneurship, but more importantly, it helps you build relationships and give people a place they feel like they belong—right alongside you. As a result, your connections will often practically sell your products and services for you.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• Why people are feeling more drawn towards in-person connections today.
• The small things you can do to feel less lonely in entrepreneurship.
• Why in-person breakthroughs hit differently.
• The secret to finding the courage to approach and connect with strangers.
• Easy ways to break the ice and open a conversation.
• How to be relatable and relevant in any room you enter.
• The wrong way to approach attending events (and how it's outdated).
• How big your event needs to be to make it worthwhile.
• How you can use social media to start meeting new people today.

What it means to be a wild woman:

• Letting go of what others think and going for the dreams in your heart imperfectly.

Want to know the secret to having it all?

Life is complex. Being a mom, business owner, and juggling the rest of my personal life (without sacrificing my success) isn't easy, but I've learned how to ebb and flow my priorities with the season of life I'm in.

You don't have to perfectly divide your time to make space for it all. What's more important is building your life in such a way where all aspects are complementary and synergistic. You don't have to do it all to be happy, you just have to know your values and make time for the things that matter the most to you.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• Why the idea of work-life balance is flawed (and a better way of looking at it).
• How our different phases of life require different levels of focus.
• Why it's important to find meaning and satisfaction in your work and personal life.
• The four pillars of your life and why they're important.
• The benefits of working out daily (and early, if possible).
