Lead and Lift

About Tiffany Hoeckelman: She gets out of bed each morning for one purpose – to help Soloprenuers create an amazing client experience by knowing their own powerful brand identity.

Starting out in 2010 as a virtual assistant and freelance graphic designer, Tiffany witnessed several businesses undermining their success with poor graphic design. She soon recognized that small business owners needed help delving deeper than just their visual identity; they needed to identify and cultivate their purpose. Driven by this mission, Tiffany has built a virtual team, offering brand consulting and implementation. Her secret love for systems and spreadsheets ensures her clients can deliver on their brand promises.

In this episode, Chabidaye and Tiffany Hoeckelman discuss:

• Why hiring is the right way to run a business 
• When to start hiring and hiring the right people
• Setting up systems and training programs 
• Growing your business with your team

Key Takeaways:

• If you want to run a business, you’ll have to hire people at some point. You can’t just do all the work on your own because that’s not a business, that’s a job. 
• You hire a new person when the current role is about one and a half capacity. When you’re stretched, it’s time to hire. 
• Don’t jump into hiring too fast, you need to be prepared. Think about your vision for these roles, which tasks you’d want to delegate and what your company culture, personality and values are. 
• The only way to scale and grow your business is by hiring a team

"Start looking for people more so with your value and your personality than just the person that can do the work. You can teach people the work, you need to hire the right alignment with your culture." —  Tiffany Hoeckelman

About Vicki Beltz:  Vicki is living proof of her financial strategies. A former actuary and early-retired executive of a multi-national insurance carrier, she's always been fascinated with personal finance. That's why she knew her "second act" career would be related to teaching on the subject.

Discovering the power and value of using an innovative approach to a traditional financial tool led Vicki on a mission to educate others. And because she does not also sell any financial product, unlike others, she is 100% committed to education for her clients.

Women in the U.S. and Canada, who were already saving, have worked with her to discover and understand how to use this "insider" information. No longer bound by traditional thinking about money, they're benefiting from their new knowledge and implementation of this approach.

In this episode, Chabidaye and Vicki discuss:

• Some investment tools that are not worth it 
• The secret and most effective investment tool 
• The S.A.F.E Framework ((Structure, Asset, Funding, Enjoying))
• Learning, unlearning and relearning

Key Takeaways:

• Overcoming fear is the first step of improving your own life 
• When looking for what to invest on, research and being guided by a trustworthy advisor is important for success  
• Life insurance can be expensive but it is the most worthy investment out of all the others 
• If you’ve held onto any uncertainty about your money – where to put it, what you might invest in, how to protect it, consider what Alvin Toffler observed about learning, unlearning and relearning. If you feel like you’re lacking confidence in your financial options, consider unlearning what you think you know and choose to take action by re-learning what is actually possible.

"All of those benefits that we’d want in a financial tool can be found in a life insurance policy. Things like guaranteed growth, protection from losses, keeping our money accessible for any reason, with no penalties and… tax-free." — Vicki Beltz

About Renee Schulte: She has over twenty years of leadership experience in the mental health field as a therapist, policy-maker, and consultant. She is nationally recognized in her expertise in behavioral health policy, system design, policy and financial analysis, and strategic consulting. Renee’s newest project, “Making Healthier Policies” is a course designed to teach others  how to create healthy policies while navigating the divisive political season. 



In this episode, Chabidaye and Renee discuss:

• The consequences of forgetting self-care 
• Benefits of doing self-care, inserting self-care in your routine/schedule
• How neglecting self-care can affect your relationships 
• Connection of sleep and immunity, decision making, and productivity
• ABC’s (Activities, Boundaries and Connections) of Self care sets the stage for building confidence

Key Takeaways:

• There is more to life than work and if you’re not convinced, imagine yourself in a hospital bed not being able to move your business forward or take care of people. 
• Slowing down will help us go faster. When we’re giving ourselves time to rest, we can be more effective. According to research, not giving yourself time to sleep will make you vulnerable to sickness - think about all the time you lose or opportunities wasted because you’re down and out. 
• The tendency of exhausted, sleepless people is that they become more emotionally unstable, more unavailable to their family and friends, and snap quickly at others or become easily irritated. 
• You’re less likely to get sick and more likely to recover quickly if you give yourself time to sleep. Deep sleep can help you come up with fresh ideas, and can also give you clarity of mind that is required for tough decisions.

"Dream-sleep can help with processing emotions and problem solving… sometimes, just going to sleep actually lets your brain think about that, you’ll wake up the next day with a fresh idea." —  Renee Schulte

Key Takeaways:

In this episode, Chabidaye and Lorna discuss:

• What leadership really is
• Developing and recognizing leadership skills you already have 
• More parallels between leadership and parenting 
• Communicating to influence effectively 

Key Takeaways:

• Being a good leader is like being a good parent: good leaders want success for their people, they want to let their people be independent and have accountability, and that they want their people to get along with other people. 
• The quote “do as I say, not what I do” does not work in parenting and neither does it work in leadership. 
• If you can negotiate with a child to eat vegetables, you’re already a leader! 
• Understanding people (or your children) and adjusting how you convey your influence into a language they understand will help you influence them more effectively. 

"Recognize and develop… you already know more about leadership than you realize." —  Lorna Weston-Smyth
