Proud To Be You

In todays episode I am talking with my special guest Sarah Berthon from Excel against the Odds.

Having set up and run a natural skincare business while living with several chronic illnesses, Sarah quickly realised that she needed to put strategies in place to look after her health while working on the business.

Sarah realised that there was a need for others to learn the same techniques and set up Excel against the Odds to help other business owners with chronic illnesses protect their health. Sarah offers one to one mentoring and workshops, plus a free Facebook group: Entrepreneurs against the Odds.

These techniques and strategies are useful for anyone who runs a business and wants to look after their wellbeing. Sarah has also just launched a podcast, Excel against the Odds, sharing tips, advice, and inspirational stories about running a business while looking after your health.

I find Trello highly effective, but I’ve never used it to create content before.

It’s amazing and works so well. Create your board, spilt it up into different sections if you wish. Then when dialogue suddenly comes into your brain, just type a few sentences on your board to remind yourself what the idea was.

Have one place to put all your flowed and natural ideas down for when you have time to elaborate on them. It works so well.

Let’s Talk About…Perimenopause

I’ll be honest – I didn’t even know perimenopause was a thing before I met today’s guest however Caroline Keatinge has absolutely blown my mind with how much of an impact perimenopause can have on us on a day to day basis.

I believe strongly that applied knowledge is power and prevention is always better than cure so I am really excited for you to listen to this episode and absorb the insight Caroline shares so you can navigate this phase of life and still thrive in business.

A message from Caroline

I am a Nutritionist and am passionate about helping women understand how their body functions so they can make informed nutritional and wellbeing choices.  Understanding the power of food, lifestyle and mindset can fundamentally affect health and wellbeing – whilst enjoying a delicious diet and living life to the full.  I focus on supporting women leading up to the menopause and beyond, leveraging nutrition and lifestyle changes to enable them to help manage menopause symptoms and live life to the full. 

I have an MSc in Nutrition from Oxford Brookes University (UK) and am registered with the Association for Nutrition.  I take a Functional Medicine approach diving into the root cause of what we are experiencing, to ensure lasting change.

I work with women who are just starting to experience some hormonal changes, to those in full-blown perimenopause and continuing to deal with menopausal symptoms post the menopause itself.  I help women who want to avoid HRT or who need to from a medical perspective, as well as those who using HRT as part of their menopause management.

Women work with me on a one to one basis – face to face and online, helping women understand their bodies and acquire the tools to make transformational change to their menopause.

In this episode I explain how we actually don’t fear failure, we fear what will happen if we fail.

Where are you setting your expectations? It is so important to get clear on what you perceive to be success and what you perceive to be failure.

Look at failure and really dive into it and think about will happen if we fail and be mindful of where the fears are coming from.

Let’s Talk About…Grief

My guest today is Maxine Brown and I’m going to warn you right now that this is probably one of the most emotional episodes I’ve ever recorded.

Maxine shares her story of how she came through the most challenging 12 months of her life and her strength is truly inspiring.

Grief comes in many forms and is not only something we feel when we lose a person but when we lose anything that has felt integral to our life or identity.

I hope this episode inspires you and reassures you that you can come through any challenge life throws your way.

Maxine has for many years been completing different coaching and counselling courses to enable her to help people that are going through challenging times. She specialises in grief and bereavement support. She started MKB Life Coach in January 2021 as she felt it was time to leave full-time employment and start helping others full time.

She has personally been through loss, a marriage breakup, and complicated times throughout her life, so she can relate to you even though no person’s situation is the same.

She aims to assist people in enabling them to continue with their lives and feel happy and content when they have struggled through life-changing periods of their lives.

Her values are to be supportive, empathetic, and affordable always, and she wants everyone to feel safe when they are either in a one to one or group session with her.

Recently she has published a self-help book, “31 Days Life Changing Journal”, which is aimed at helping people change their mindset and start to become positive after going through a traumatic time.

There is also a journal to continue your journey – “MKB Life Coach Year Journal: A year to change your life.”

Maxine believes it is essential that you feel at ease with her when you are working together, so with this in mind, she offers everyone a free hour meeting.

A lot of my Podcast episodes are designed to help you explore areas you feel need some attention.  

However the self-development world can almost make us feel like we are never going to be enough and therefore when we are in full consumption mode we do not have the ability to fully absorb and implement the changes that may be needed.

Choose wisely who you choose to listen to, or follow, or what book to read. Always remember you are already whole, you are already enough.

Today I am speaking with the incredible Nicole Posner

This conversation is a must listen if you are leading a team or thinking of making your first hire.

Our discussion dives deeply into how to effectively communicate with others especially your team.

When you start a business by yourself taking the step to hire a team, even if at first it’s just a VA for a few hours a week, the transition to the role of “boss” can be challenging.

Great communication can help you navigate this transition with more ease and far less chance of conflict in the future.

Nicole is a Communication and Conflict Expert, supporting and empowering Leaders, Business Owners and high-performing teams to communicate more effectively and successfully navigate difficult conversations with confidence and ease.

As an Executive Conflict Coach, Trainer and accredited Workplace Mediator, she has an interest in the psychology of conflict combined with extensive experience in communications following a background in PR.

She is author of many published articles on communication and workplace conflict in the following publications: Thrive Global, SME and HR Magazine.  She is an invited Executive Contributor to BRAINZ Magazine.

Nicole was featured in COACH Magazine in 2020, has contributed to several articles in Metro (online), Psychologies Magazine and other work-life publications.  She’s a regular podcast guest and contributor to local radio shows discussing Leadership Communication and conflict issues in the workplace.

In 2021 she was included in the Brainz 500 Global list as one of 500 companies or influential leaders who are recognised for their entrepreneurial success, achievements, and dedication to helping others. And in 2020 she was a shortlisted finalist in the UK National Mediation Awards.

Let’s Talk About…The Risk of Emulating Your Coach

I cannot stress how much the people you surround yourself with and the coach you work with matters when you are running a business. Don’t just try to emulate coaches, try and be them.

Today we discuss how I found myself pivoting my business to create success like my coach had. I had so little self-worth, I did not know who I was, so I thought I’d try and be like them.

Create your business from within my soul, invest in the things that desire you, create your business through you and do not replicate the success of someone else.

Let’s Talk About...Connecting With Your Spirit Guides

This is possibly one of my favourite ever conversations. The joyful positive energy that surrounded this whole discussion was flowing through from start to finish .I invite you to go into this with an open mind willing to see what is possible for you and your business when we tap into the support that’s all around us.

Todays guest is a spiritual guide, healer and teacher. She is one of a new wave of conscious spiritual leaders and way-showers, here to usher in a brand new way of living in partnership with Spirit. Joan is passionate about helping those awakening to deeply connect to their own intuition and spiritual teams. She believes we all have access to a wealth of information and guidance from the spiritual realms; we just need to remember those connections and clear the fears and blocks to reconnecting in a gentle and loving way. Joan left behind a successful corporate career in her 30s to walk the spiritual path. A series of circumstances and stresses all came together to force her to look for a better way of living. Having completely forgotten her spiritual connections and gifts, it was a rollercoaster quest back to remembrance. After journeying through her own awakening process she now wishes to ease the path for others, to share her powerful spiritual gifts as a healer and teacher, as well as her experiences of the struggles, fear and difficulties on this winding awakening road. She is a mother of3 and wants to lead the way for the next generation of spiritual leaders, to clear the path so our children and grandchildren can thrive and shine on a beautiful 5D earth. Since 2007 Joan has provided healing sessions and Angel Healer training, led Angel and Louise Hay workshops, offered online classes, and created the Celestial Club. In 2019 Joan opened the doors to the Celestial Club monthly membership program. The awakening journey can be challenging andlonely and Joan created Celestial Club to provide what she herself needed over the years. It is a supportive and loving community to bring people together, while also providing the tools, techniques, and guidance necessary to move gently onwards.She firmly believes that we are all amazing Divine beings of light and the path is remembering allthat we already are, becoming aware of our expansive family of light and living a life in the flow of soul for this lifetime. Joan is an Integrated Energy Therapy Master Instructor, Angel Energy Healing practitioner, a Reiki Master, transformational workshop leader and a certified teacher in the philosophy of Louise Hay. The greatest class of all has been her awakening journey and the experience of remembering her own gifts.
