  • [NEWSLETTER] Are you in a tailspin in your business?
    Chaos, chaos, chaos! Many business owners are embracing that reactive, fly by the seat of your pants or "building the plane while flying it". Yes, it can happen but sometimes we are pushed into a situation that just straight up, SUCKS. Then, what? Do we keep uncontrollably spinning? Or, do we do something? Gain traction so we can move forward with solid ground. 
    I am joined on Permission to Leap podcast season 4, episode 4 this week by Mary Anne Ivison, who after 12 years in broadcasting found herself in a state of panic when she lost that broadcasting job in the midst of a pandemic. 

    We talk about job loss, loneliness and a moment to regain control before making any sudden movements. Her approach was the opposite of what many tell us to "go with the flow". Instead, she pulled together various pieces to pave a runway for her half built plan to create a business that she is now thriving in.

    Check out the episode to learn how Mary Anne regained control and moved towards a lucrative and niche business.

  • Job Loss and Leaping with Mary Anne Ivison
    Stop going with the flow. Start gathering the pieces and making informed business decisions. On today’s episode of Permission to Leap, we are talking about flying by the seat of our pants, building the plane while we are flying it and how sometimes we find ourselves in business and in life in a state of panic, chaos. Today we are talking to Mary Anne Ivison, who after 12 years in broadcasting found herself without a job in the midst of a pandemic. Mary Anne didn’t just leap, jump in, or dive in. She cobbled together multiple revenue streams to strategically find her footing and today, we talk about how.  

    Specifically in this show, we will talk about: 

    - How to pause to regain your footing when you're in a tail spin or state of chaos.
    - Breaking free from the ‘go with the flow’ mindset and build something that you’re in control of and that is sustainable.
    - Strategies to use, like pitching and cold calling to build a portfolio of work and clients for a niche business.

  • [NEWSLETTER] does this funnel suck?
    Content or funnel...which word do I dislike more? Ironic, because I used to run a program on building content funnels. Listen, neither of them actually suck. What sucks is how we are taught to understand them and how to use them in our business. 

    Funnels are made out to be complicated. And, it's just straight up BS! 

    I'm excited to invite Gemma Bonham Carter to the Permission to Leap Podcast, Season 4, Episode 3. Digital sales and program consultant Gemma and I chat about why the digital environment is very samey, samey with a copy and paste funnel that is complicated and duplicated. 

    Stop making it complicated. Tune in and learn how to simplify your funnel.

    - Deconstructing what you’ve been programmed to believe about evergreen content & funnels.
    - Passive income streams and how to create an effective passive income source, by putting in the work up front and leaning in to your energetics.

  • Officially introducing The PTL Collective
    It’s time to shake things up! During this episode, we are digging in on the what and why on some changes coming to this season of Permission to Leap. Strategically, I’ve been hyper focused on the digital social media realm. However, I’ve learned and am anxious to share my learnings on the importance of content diversification, omni channel marketing and showing up across platforms in a meaningful way to make meaningful connections through emotions and storytelling. You see, it’s a lot of the same foundation but a different more impactful way to tell it. That is what this season is all about. 

    Specifically in this show, we will talk about: 

    - A new format of PTL, featuring both me and a guest in the business realm. 
    - What to expect; guests, topics & tons of insights. Including learnings from me and other business 
    - The PTL Collective Membership. What it is, why I created it and how you can join!
