Seven Figure Consultant with Jessica Fearnley

Today I want to encourage you to listen to your emotions, body and intuition. Is your body telling you, "Girl, you need a vacation?" If it is, this is the episode for you. I'll give you tips on the benefits, how to prepare and options on whether you work on your vacation or leave your devices at home. So tune in today to hear my thoughts on how to take a vacation as a professional, entrepreneurial woman.

In this episode:

• [00:51] Jessica talks about how to take a vacation when you are a seven figure consultant and why you should.
• [03:50] Interpreting the signs your body is sending to you that you need a break and allow yourself time to feel your feelings.
• [07:12] How do you meet the needs of those you travel with and ensure you are leaving your business in good hands, and what obligations, if any, do you have to clients.
• [09:10] The physical preparation of a vacation and listening to your thoughts while you are resting.
• [10:56] What to do with the information you learned while on vacation.

Key Takeaways:

• Be thoughtful about who you spend your vacation with. For example, you might need time away from friends and rather be alone with your immediate family.
• When you need more caffeine, assess your schedule and plan a vacation.
• A vacation can be a time for self-reflection, or you may put work, emails and your devices away during your time off. Listen to your body.

Quotes: "An essential part of being human is to give ourselves the grace to break our own rules from time to time. As I get more overloaded towards the end of each term, I would withdraw from my healthy habits and get to an exhausted place where the holidays just cannot arrive soon enough." - Jessica Fearnley

"It's important to consider ensuring the business can run smoothly without you. Ensure there's capacity in your team behind the scenes, and your work calendar reflects the time you plan to spend away." - Jessica Fearnley

I'm excited to chat with Precious Williams on today's Seven Figure Consultant Podcast episode! Precious, known as the "Pitch Queen", reveals her secret weapon and thoughts on knowing when you are seated at the wrong table. Precious has insights into packaging, positioning, and pitching. No one puts it quite like Precious does. If you want to be successful in any endeavor, get a copy of Precious's new book, Rainmaking 101, From Day 1. This discussion is fast-paced; you don't want to miss a minute.

In this episode:

• [00:23] Introduction of the "Pitch Queen". Precious describes her tumultuous childhood and the ups and downs that positioned her to be where she is today.
• [07:48] Where do you turn when you don't have someone encouraging you, and how do you know your place within a group?
• [13:35] Precious discusses when her backstory is appropriate to share and when it is not. She outlines the different media she has mastered.
• [20:25] Precious shares her take on pitching and taking an interest in others.
• [24:34] Precious discusses whether somebody can learn a talent or are you born with it and what about being a visionary?
• [29:19] What is real entrepreneurship? Precious discusses her new book, Rainmaking 101 From Day 1.

Key Takeaways:

• Precious's story proves positively that you can make it from any background, and even after failing, you can come back stronger than the first time.
• Often the language you use describing a situation or a product makes the difference in how successful it is. Elevate the conversation, elevate the terminology.
• Don't take no for an answer if you are determined to be accomplished and recognized in any field. Failure is not the end of a goal. Instead, it is a stepping stone towards accomplishment.

Quotes:

"I just have to say to you at this moment; I receive your compliment. Because many of us as women can't accept a compliment. I need to receive what you just said because it's a testament to my grandmother. It's a testament to my higher power." - Precious Williams.

"I had to go where I was celebrated, not tolerated. Also, if I'm not invited to the table, understand that rejection is the ultimate protection. There are some places you don't need to be, and if you're constantly fighting to be seen in certain groups, maybe that's the group you shouldn't be in." - Precious Williams.

In this week's episode, I'm discussing a topic many of you have asked me about. What do I do when I've reached the coveted seven figures? It's natural to reach plateaus in your business, whether seven figures or any goal you've set for yourself, where you realise that money isn't what fulfils you. You may be unsure what to do next and feel dissatisfied with aspects of your business. Now is the time to take advantage of this situation, and I have answers for you and also want to share a free PDF report for Women Consultants, The Six Elements of a Seven Figure Business.

In this episode:

• [00:00] Jessica begins by sharing the goal of her business and how she works to empower women.
• [01:37] Does money fulfil you?
• [06:30] Jessica shares her innermost feelings about acceptance and finding that thing in life that satisfies.
• [11:46] Jessica suggests listening to your body and asking yourself questions when you find yourself asking, "What now?"
• [13:37] Pruning those aspects of the business you never enjoyed.
• [15:13] Take advantage of Jessica's free PDF report for women consultants, The Six Elements of a Seven Figure Business, in the resource notes.

Key Takeaways:

• Don't be afraid to step back, get off the merry-go-round and take a break to analyse your business. What do you enjoy doing? What do you dislike?
• Money is nice. It buys nice things. But that money itself will never bring you fulfilment and joy.
• A good consultant leads you to make the decision you need to make. She doesn't tell you what to do or feel.

Quotes:

"Sometimes the journey of achieving things has been the search for meaning, the search for satisfaction that doesn't usually come from money and things." Jessica Fearnley

"Getting to seven figures and feeling you aren't sure what needs to happen next isn't a sign you've done something wrong. On the contrary, it's a great platform to stand on and determine what comes next." Jessica Fearnley

I'm excited to chat with Eva Jannotta on this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast! Eva and I discuss Thought Leadership. Eva believes in the art of Thought Leadership and will explain what it is and how to achieve it. We will explore if this is a title you can claim for yourself or if there are steps involved in qualifying you to be a Thought Leader. Eva also shares how to monetize your body of work! This episode is one of my favorites, and I can't wait for you to listen to the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast today.

In this episode:

• [00:47] Eva talks about her professional background and the pivotal moments that led her to her current position.
• [04:52] Eva defines what a thought leader is and how to monetize your work, thoughts, and ideas.
• [11:26] What is the curse of knowledge?
• [15:33] Eva discusses having a team to help you execute on distributing your thought leadership.
• [18:37] Eva shares her pet peeve about people offering advice and that it is ok to follow your intuition. Your body will lead you.
• [27:22] Consistency will get you on the road to being a thought leader and take you to the next level.

Key Takeaways:

• You can be a thought leader by being active in either speaking or writing.
• Repetition of your ideas is a good thing. In truth, repetition and consistency are vital to being a thought leader.
• Our capacity for delivery is not infinite. It pays to have a team behind you, so there is still reserve to do your best work.

Quotes:

"A constant bombardment of 'you should do this, and you have to do that' can alienate women entrepreneurs because the advice lands on us, and it may not feel good to me, or it doesn't align with my energy, my integrity, or my vision." - Eva Jannotta.

"An internal reaction is valuable data about a course, advice, ideas, strategy, and tactics, whether they are a good fit for you. Most of us don't trust that internal response. We have trained ourselves to override it right out of the gate. It's a disservice to feeling good about our work and creating results we are satisfied with." - Eva Jannotta.

Guest Bio:

Eva Jannotta helps women defy the status quo, amplify our influence, and expand our wealth and power with thought leader ecosystems. Eva and the Medusa Media Group team train and advise authors, speakers, coaches and consultants to generate strong leads and grow engaged audiences by publishing their best thinking.

In this week’s episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, I’m excited to welcome Sami Wunder to the show. Sami is the creator of the Love Success Framework, and her business has helped hundreds of women find lasting relationships. In this episode, Sami and I discuss the six steps a high-achieving woman needs to take to find her love relationship. But unfortunately, some women often sabotage their dating experiences, and we will hear why that happens. I can’t wait for you to listen to this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast. 

In this episode:

• [01:00] Sami Wunder shares her childhood, her academic achievements, her heartbreaks in romance and what she did to turn it around and start her company.
• [08:33] Jessica reflects on her dating and ultimate meeting with her husband. 
• [11:45] Sami reveals that it’s too easy to blame your partner for the failure in the relationship and not do a self-evaluation. 
• [15:53] Social media and generic thinking say to ‘be yourself.’ Sami tells why that doesn’t work and describes a healthy, empowered self. 
• [21:19] Sami outlines four steps to be taken in self-evaluation and awareness and how to implement these steps. 
• [31:00] How to compare the business acumen of ‘The More Leads you Have, the Better your Conversion Rate’ to dating. 
• [34:34] Steps five and six define masculine and feminine energy and the acceptance that men and women see commitment differently. 
• [44:00] Sami’s complimentary training program.  
  

Key Takeaways: 

• Some of the same qualities that make a woman successful in business may cause her to fail in a love relationship. 
• Getting a clean mindset and knowing who you are and your worth is the way to start a relationship.
• Rotational dating is the best way to find the right man for you, and you’re not wasting time.  

Quotes: 

“The easiest thing for high achievers to do is to blame their success and brain for not having love.  I used to do the same whenever things would not work out with a man; it was because he was intimidated by my success, and I was too much. This is a harmful and toxic belief because it becomes the umbrella explanation for why your love life is not working out.” - Sami Wunder

“Once you believe that your success and your brain are a problem, you do not have the capacity to go deeper into self-questioning and self-inquiry and see what is truly going on there that is preventing that love and intimacy from entering your life.” - Sami Wunder

Guest Bio:

As the CEO of a thriving 7-figure business, Sami currently serves a highly engaged, global clientele of over 100K followers across 55 countries. Her clients range from a Hollywood celebrity to UK TV stars to CEOs, bankers, lawyers, doctors, renowned authors, leading entrepreneurs, and more.

Self worth and self care shouldn't be words we throw around lightly. They aren't just concepts we can discuss at lunch with the girls and then forget about when we are back at the office. So today, I want to share some breakthroughs I've had in my own life once self worth and self care became actions, not words. Like me, you may have experienced trauma and believe it was something you did or deserved. It was not your fault. Today, I will share some fundamental principles that motivate you to recognize your self worth and lead you to Self Care.

In this episode:

• [00:00] Recognizing the value of understanding self worth and self care.
• [01:00] How trauma plays a role in how you see yourself.
• [04:42] Going outside your comfort zone and the gems from the Holistic Psychologist.
• [08:00] Self acceptance and living out self care.
• [09:57] Jessica leaves us with thoughts to ponder.

Key Takeaways:

• Negative self-talk is a downward spiral. Self worth, Self care and Self acceptance will never be achieved when we listen to our negative selves.
• Women often think they won't accomplish their goals at the office and home if they take time for meals, rest, and exercise, when, in fact, the exact opposite is true.
• Running a business should not equate to running yourself ragged. Instead, intelligent business women take care of themselves to be the best operator, coaches, or practitioners they can be.

Quotes:

"Life gets infinitely more peaceful when you understand people can only support you at the level they can support themselves. It's powerful when we think about past trauma and understand that people are often doing the best they can with what they have." - Jessica Fearnley

"I am worthy of love and care, and I also cannot serve my clients, my family, or my wider audience if I'm not putting the maximum amount of gas in the tank daily. It might be food, rest, movement, but it's also about applying boundaries in life and work." - Jessica Fearnley
