What's up teacher friends, it's been a hot minute since I've shared with you some thoughts and tips/tricks about the journey from teacher to entrepreneur. My bad, I got caught up helping my community get the ball rolling in our March program and any spare time I chose to be snowboarding instead. Ya know, I want to show up super transparent with y'al and here I am sharing how it goes. 

Today, I want to create some context because there's a misconception that The Co & Teli is an over night success story. I open up about my struggles as a former classroom teacher and starting out in the online business world. It hasn't always been a smooth road, but dang it's worth it!. 

Are we connected on IG? If not, slide into my DM @telina_too I'd love to hear your biggest take aways from today's episode. 

What's up friends, here I elaborate on one of my Instagram posts during the week. The one that blew up my Dm's with people asking questions. 

How I made $7K in a day and now consistently each month, less than 12 months in business! 

I birthed The Co & Teli during the epidemic because I saw an opportunity and ran with it. I noticed educators were struggling with the transition from classroom teaching to online-virtual learning during lock-down. I wanted to support them to better cope and balance life and work-obligations rather than teaching them how to teach online. What I learned was they also needed connection and community and had passion projects on the side that kept them feeling sane during chaos. I often questioned, "why if, you could turn that passion into a profitable side-hustle, would you be open to seeing how that works". Most common response OH MY GOD, SERIOUSLY? YES". This is resulted in not only selling out of my 1:1 client spots before I even had a "real - program" but also help teachers feel more valued and an opportunity to create another income. 

Thanks to my first newbie clients who saw the value in what I can bring to the table and through their feedback I've been working on creating a course that is open to Beta- participants to trial with me at a discounted price. The Beta-group will kick off next month (March 2021) if this is something that interests you, let's connect

What's up my people, today's solo episode is a short and mighty one. By the end of it, I realised that I pretty much riffed straight in a single breath :)... So after 13ish minutes I invite you to breathe it out with me.  I go on about all things SPENDING VS. INVESTING (Aka: Things we want Vs. things we need). I share a few take aways that my mentors have shared with me and really changed my perspective and accelerate serious shifts in my mindset development. 

Some people share this very untrue yet common misconception that as a mentor, I don't need to invest in myself... LIKE WHAT THE ACTUAL F*! come on y'al, plug those ear buds in, take a walk or a drive and let's dive into this conversation shall we because there's a few things I'd like to clear up.

What's up friends, this week's episode I'm joined by one of my biggest role models and (fav uncles) Damien King who caught me by huge surprise as he opens up about life serving in the military for over two decades, what toll it's taken on himself, his marriage and what he is doing now as a result of almost loosing it all. 

I'd like to acknowledge him and his community/ brotherhood past and present who have all played a huge role in his life and impacted each other greatly. 

Grab your tissues, this conversation is full of laughs and a few tear-jerky moments.

What's up friends, another poll on my IG stories and most of our growing community voted for 'defining the difference between a Mentor and a Coach. 

For the record, anything I share is purely based on my own opinion and personal experiences so it's important for you to listen, take what you need and spit out what doesn't resonate with you. In fact, I hope as we journey each week together that you make the commitment to more growth and expansion in yourself. Not just for me, but for you and all the people you (could) impact too. 

Today's episode highlights my experience as a coach and then switching hats to a mentoring role, I love it and the flexibility and holistic approach I now share with clients.

What's friends and welcome back to the pod. Wow, happy new year! what a time to be alive! and become more reflective than ever before. Cheers to you and dialling into listen each week. Last season, my solo episodes surprisingly got the most downloads so I decided that season two will be more of me, with you!

I birthed this space as a need for connection and community (two basic human needs, right?) when the epidemic first hit! Almost a year on and this platform has evolved into so much more, not only a hub for me to share and work through my personal experiences but also for you, our community to join in the 'work'. 

First episode back got highjacked (by my daily gratitude reminder going off on my phone) so I decided to roll with it and share with you some sentence starters to help you start and finish each day with more gratitude. 

Thanks for listening

Ps: let's connect, I love hearing from y'al.

Hey friends, 

Wrapping up 2020 with a solo riff raff, opening up, very unscripted as per usual about how I spent the full moon phase of each month. This is really the time to let go of that shi* and set some seriously yummy intentions. What better way to let go of 2020 and call in more love, friendships, opportunities and abundance for the new year.

What's up friends, I can't believe we're almost at the end of 2020, what a ripper year! This solo episode I offer you the opportunity to share what you'd like to hear in season 2 and what my instincts say to speak up more about! I want to say a huge thank you for sticking with me, listening to each week's episode and your on going love, support and feedback. I never thought my little passion project would make this much impact in my life and your life too.

Here's a snippet from my interview with founder Leslie Wardman, we explore how she stumbled into being an expert matchmaker and how she filters out the right match for like-minded singles. I've been invited to chat with her and her team to share more about what happens behind the scenes and how they have been in the business for over 20 years. 

I admit, I really thought online dating apps and this idea of Matchmaking was the same... Thank goodness for receiving a crash course 101 and better understanding, there's really no comparison.
