Mums With Hustle Podcast

In this week’s podcast, I am joined by Australian TV personality and business woman, Lorinska Merrington! You may know her from candid reality series ‘Yummy Mummies’ on Netflix or you may have downloaded the pregnancy and preconception app she co-owns called ‘Bub.app’. 

On this episode, we’re chatting very candidly about mum life, goal-setting, business, and her top marketing tips: “Word of mouth is everything!”

LISTEN NOW!

Listen to this episode to learn:

• Lorinska’s tip for overcoming mum guilt when it creeps up
• Lorinska’s goal-setting techniques (hint - she puts pen to paper)
• How to move through setbacks and challenges in business
• Her top marketing tips regardless of your niche or industry

Ladies, the topics of mindset and resilience also came up in my conversation with Lorinska. Here’s a journal prompt for you: Where are you holding onto? Past challenges, mistakes, frustrations, missed opportunities, or disappointments?

Where are you holding onto that in your business? Cause it’s time to let it go, girlfriend! There are so much more to be experienced by you in your business if you can go out of it and keep moving forward.

It’s almost the end of a financial year! On this week’s podcast episode, I’m bringing on a lovely member of my Social Method Society and we’re going to talk about the importance of knowing the numbers in your business. So you could make strategic money-making decisions in your business and also start paying yourself consistently! 

LISTEN NOW

I’m sitting down with Lisa Turner! She is the numbers fanatic behind Accounted For You – a bespoke bookkeeping practice for women in business.

Listen to this episode to learn:

• Lisa’s top tips for a super smooth end of financial year
  • 1) Keep your bookkeeping up to date (aim for weekly or a minimum of monthly).
  • 2) Call your accountant for a strategic tax planning review (ideally during May or early June).
  • 3) Do stocktake if you sell physical products and consider an end of financial year sale.
  • 4) If you have employees and you want their pay to be recognised as an expense for this current financial year, make sure you pay them before June 30.
• Some helpful resources / services you can use such as HubDoc.

Girlfriend, it is really important to know that when you can manage your money and what’s coming into your business, you can make smarter decisions. As Lisa said, it’s also important to value yourself as your business’s most important employee by paying yourself. Do it!

It’s my birthday week and my Mums With Hustle Team did something cheeky and sneaky for this week’s podcast... They surprised me by inviting someone else to host this episode and have that guest host interview ME!

LISTEN NOW

In this episode, I am interviewed by one of my fabulous Inner Circle Mastermind mentees, Melina Bagnato! And the best bit was, some of the questions were gathered from members of my Social Method Society and Inner Circle Mastermind ladies. 

I shared so much in this one that I’ve never shared on any interview ever, because the questions were so different and they were also loads of fun! To be honest, I think I may have blushed a couple of times and even been a bit lost-for-words. Which is so NOT me.

Girlfriend, after you listen to this fun episode, I’d love to ask you to leave my podcast a 5-star review (it will totally make my birthday!) Don’t forget to leave your Instagram handle so I know who you are. 

Until next week, stay happy in your hustle.

If you run a remote team or a virtual team, then this episode is for you. I’m going to talk about our top 4 communication tools in managing our remote team.

LISTEN NOW

Listen to this episode to learn...

• Our top 4 communication tools.
• How we use these communication tools within our team. 
• What daily communication looks like when you outsource any part of your business to a virtual assistant or a contractor.

When I first started Mums With Hustle 6 years ago, it was just me and there was no team. Six months into the business, I decided that if I’m going to have any product or offer to sell, I needed to stop working IN the business and I have to start working ON the business. I realised I needed help, so I hired a virtual assistant.

(Read here: How Hiring a Virtual Assistant Can Help Grow Your Biz)

I know with 2020, a lot more people have just realised how amazing and how much opportunities there are to work from home and have a remote team. There’s a lot less fear about having contractors and virtual assistants work from their locations and be part of someone’s business team. Which is so exciting!

When you’re open to that, amazing things happen. 

Girlfriend, there’s nothing to fear when you hire a contractor or a virtual assistant and have them work in remote capacity. There are some incredible tools to help you do that.

So grab a pen and a paper, and check out these very helpful communication tools!

In this week’s episode, I’m going to talk about why your business should not be your hobby. Our business and personal life kind of intertwine and sometimes, our business take over and be all-consuming. If you find yourself without a hobby or you’re spending the majority of your time in your business...

 LISTEN NOW

Listen to this episode to...

• Find out why your business is not your hobby,
• Learn about the Wheel of Life and its 7 areas and;
• Know why it’s important to live an aligned and balanced life.

I shared with you before that taking some time for myself without the guilt was really challenging for me. I had to start with baby steps... But slowly and surely, I got into a place where I don’t feel guilt or anxiety or shame when doing something just for me.

I’m sharing all of these with you because if I can encourage even just one woman from feeling less guilty or less shameful about wanting to pursue a hobby and start having more fun!

Girlfriend, believe and know that this will have a ripple effect into the other areas of your life, like your business, and relationship with your spouse, children and friends. Only good things can happen when you’re happy and joyful.

As you listen to this episode, I want to ask you - out of 1 to 10, what would you rank yourself as for your pursuit and practice of your hobby? Also, what hobby would you like to either reconnect with or just start practicing?
