Resilient Entrepreneurs

This episode is all about the Enneagram, a fail-proof way of understanding each other and building better relationships - in personal and business life. We talk with the amazing Tracy Baker-Lawrence, an Enneagram and Relationship expert. Tracy has lived and breathed this for almost 20 years!

Tracy shares some fantastic insights on how understanding your Enneagram type can reduce stress and make difficult conversations much easier. Spoiler alert: it's not just about figuring out if you're a Type 1 or Type 7, although that part is fun! She reveals ours on the show!

Resilient Entrepreneurs is the podcast where we talk about the ups and downs of being in business and discovering what other business owners do to get through, around, up and over any hurdles they come across.
The more episodes we record, the more we realise that everyone has had some adversity in life, trauma, grief or crazy stuff in business that’s challenging. The key is - how to overcome it. How to find the gift in the pain and use it to our benefit - to be even better than we already are.

This conversation is a goldmine for entrepreneurs who want to lead with empathy and authenticity, and to bring their businesses to the next level.

She’s an Organisation Queen (the official term is Systems Auditor) and she helps people get their innate knowledge into a system so that their genius can be replicated - she is Krystle Divertie, the co-founder of Team Accelerate - an HR software for Australian and NZ-based business that reduces the risks associated with running a business.

In this episode Krystle talks about how everything we do in life has a system to it - she even advocates posting Standard Operating Procedures around the house for your kids to follow (we love that!). Krystle also shares her thoughts on success, failure, intuition and growth.

A fun conversation with insights into why systems make life easier and safer.

She wrapped up a business she started less than a year ago and calls it a success! 

In this episode Claire shares her insights on:

Claire co-founded Fit to Fly, a healthcare business for Bermuda’s tourism industry, having responded quickly to a need in the market - it was a Covid response and the business has wrapped up now because Covid testing is no longer a mandatory requirement for travel. The business also donated over $7,000 to local charities - they committed from the start to contribute a percentage of their income.

Claire’s primary business is Healthcare Solutions Bermuda (www.healthcaresolutions.bm) which provides organisational management and staffing solutions for medical practitioners.  Her promise is to manage the health of the medical practice so doctors and staff can better manage the health of their patients.

As an early-stage entrepreneur you’ve probably tried to do your accounting yourself, at least once. Not surprisingly, it’s one of the first things that you’ll outsource to a third-party provider because you quickly realise your business will be better off with the guidance of a professional. 

A member from our entrepreneur community, The Level-Up League, is an accountant and tutor and in this episode we chat with him about what he calls “making order out of chaos”. Can you relate?

Giles Belfrage of Accountancy Tamer has a wonderfully quirky sense of humour and has been helping entrepreneurs and students in Bermuda for years. He was also a lecturer at Bermuda College.

In this short and punchy episode we hope you’ll find useful perspectives as we head into 2023.
