April 26, 20223 Ways To Get Clear On What You Want To Do So You Can Create The Business You Dream Of
Welcome to episode 14 of the Pivot Into Your Purpose Podcast! This solo episode is part 1 of a 3 part series I'm doing breaking down my signature method for getting clear on what you're meant to do, growing the confidence to go for it, and knowing the first steps to take to help you get into action and create the business you dream of creating.
Episode 14 is the top 3 ways that I use to help my clients (and that I used myself) to get clear on what you want to do so you can create the business you were meant to create.
In the episode I share how you can look to your past, present and future for different ways to discover what you are meant to do. I share lots of journaling prompts to help you dig deep so you can uncover what it is that you are deeply desiring to do, and I'm sharing these prompts below so you can come back to them and journal your thoughts out.
I'd love to hear what you discover about yourself and what you are dreaming of doing! Please share with me on IG, I love hearing from you!
JOURNAL PROMPTS:
LOOK TO YOUR PAST-
What did you want to be when you grew up?

What did you love to do as a child? What did you play or imagine you were?

What did people always tell you that you were good at?
LOOK AT YOUR PRESENT-
What are you obsessed with?

What do you spend all your time thinking about, doing or wanting to be doing?

What are you jealous of someone else for doing or having?

What are your values? What's important to you in a career?

What would you want to have in your career?

Who inspire you, and why?
LOOK TO YOUR FUTURE-
If you could do anything in the world and money were no object, what would you do?

What would that look like?

What would your perfect day look like?

Create the vision for yourself: If it didn't matter what it cost to get started, how long it would take, and you were guaranteed to succeed, what would you be doing?

How would you spend your day?

How much would you be making?

How would it feel to be doing this work?

April 20, 2022Building A Soul Aligned Six Figure Business As A Mom Of Three With Meg O'Neill
On today's episode of the Pivot Into Your Purpose Podcast, I'm chatting with Meg O'Neill, an intuitive business coach. Meg shares her story of how she went from working for different non-profits and helping them to raise $100K in capital and grow their businesses, to realizing that although she loved the work, it didn't match up with her values for what she wanted for herself and her family. This led her to start her coaching business, which she has grown to over six figures in less than a year, all while raising her three kids and showing that you can have a six figure business while doing it imperfectly, and have balance and time for yourself.
We chat about how motherhood has impacted her journey and helped her to create the soul aligned business she has today, and how she is helping other women entrepreneurs to do the same.
KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THE EPISODE:
Why it's important to not put yourself in a box and do what other people are doing when it comes to building your business.

Why it doesn't always work to take someone else's playbook and get the same results they did.

Why the value of coaching is so much more than having someone tell you what to do or give you their strategy.

Why it's important to learn to tune into our intuition and calm our nervous system.

How getting curious about how to monetize what people were coming to her for all the time led her to starting her coaching business.

How you can still love your job and want to pivot into something that is more aligned for you.

Why knowing your values and what's important to you is a huge part of discovering the work or business you're meant to create.

The #1 lesson she learned on her journey to creating a 6 figure coaching business.

How asking yourself questions like, "What feels good about this?" will eat you in the right direction to success.

Why it's important to be gentle with yourself, embrace messiness, and ask for support when you're a mom building a business.

What her priorities are when it comes to balancing her business and family life.

Why you should start your healing journey as soon as you can.
