Email Marketing is the only thing that you own when it comes to digital marketing. It gives you direct access to vital game-changing data and insights that are game-changing to your business.

A few years ago, in 48 hours I made £2k from a really small list which blew my mind. And having a growing, engaged email list is the way to make sales from your email list.

Looking at industry stats, around 5% of your audience on social media (LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook) are likely to see your content whereas average open rates for emails are between 25-30% which is bloody incredible.

To find out how to leverage this, personalise it, and create that powerful 1:1 relationship with your reader, listen to this episode.

Here are the highlights:

[02:43] The power of lead magnets

[04:39] Examples of lead magnets you can create

[05:51] Creating collaborations to grow your email list

[07:38] Sending weekly emails that people want to read!

​​In today’s episode talking all about ADHD and running a business, we’re talking about ADHD-Related Decision Paralysis.

If you’re constantly experienced overwhelm and the fatigue that comes with the cognitive load of too many decisions to make and consider, then this can really stunt your business growth and potential.

As someone who has ADHD myself, I share some of my personal experiences around decision paralysis and some of the most effective strategies that have helped me and my clients to manage these challenges. 

When it comes to making decisions, there is a huge need for a personalised approach so you can find practical solutions for reducing overwhelm.

I share lots of practical tips and strategies that work for me when it comes to reducing the cognitive overwhelm, such as doing a brain dump, focusing on easy wins, and the significance of completing tasks over perfecting them. 

I must emphasise that there is a huge need for individualised approaches and strategies, as there is no one-size-fits-all solution so please take from this what you need and what feels like a good fit for you.

Here are the highlights:

[00:18] Understanding ADHD and Decision Paralysis

[01:09] The Impact of Decision Paralysis on Business

[01:39] Strategies to Overcome Decision Paralysis

[02:20] Personal Experiences with Decision Paralysis (and what I do about it)

[03:14] The Importance of Strategic Decision Making

[03:45] The Consequences of Overthinking

[05:05] Practical Tips to Combat Decision Paralysis

[08:34] The Role of Perfectionism in Decision Paralysis

In today’s episode of the ADHD series, I share openly how I handle rejection sensitivity and making sales.

It can be much harder for people with ADHD to put themselves out there knowing they will hear no, or “not right now” as it’s believed that for people who experience RSD, their brains can't regulate rejection based emotions and behaviours, which then makes them more intense for you. And yes, even when you know it’s nothing to do with you at all.

As an example, if I've shared something really vulnerable or that feels vulnerable to me on social media or in an email or conversation I’ve had, I can want to run away and hide. And I’ve learnt how to give myself permission to put myself comfortably outside of my comfort zone and how to reset and regulate my nervous system.

I am sharing insight and strategies that have helped me and hundreds of my clients to manage and navigate rejection sensitivity in business with ADHD so you can make more sales by understanding how neurodiversity impacts the way you work. 

I must emphasise that there is a huge need for individualised approaches and strategies, as there is no one-size-fits-all solution. 

Here are the highlights:

[00:39] Understanding Rejection Sensitivity in Sales with ADHD

[01:34] Personal Experiences and Challenges with Rejection Sensitivity

[02:00] The Importance of Sales in Business and the Struggles with ADHD

[03:01] Psychoeducation on Rejection Sensitivity

[04:55] Soothing Your Nervous System: Strategies and Tools

[08:21] Being Kinder to Yourself: Celebrating Wins and Practising Gratitude

[09:37] Facing the Fear: Understanding the Worst-Case Scenario

Do you know how to help your brain be more creative?

Personally, I geek out on all things Psychology and personal development and in this episode I share how you can move your brain into a more innovative state and what might be stopping you doing that now.

Staying creative and being able to innovate are key to staying ahead of the competition and up to date with market trends, but it can be challenging to do this when you’re already busy with clients (and life!)

Creating regular habits are essential to enable you to think differently and take more calculated long term risks so you can achieve your business growth goals.

In this episode I talk about the role of the brain in your ability to strategise and innovate, focusing on the struggle of balancing stress responses with creative thinking. 

I share how you can facilitate better business practices, such as engaging with diverse perspectives and adopting a long-term view to change.

Here are the highlights:

[00:28] The Importance of Innovation and Creativity in Business

[01:37] Understanding the Role of the Brain in Innovation

[03:21] Strategies for Maximising Your Potential Through Innovation

[04:12] Three Key Steps to Enhance Innovation

[06:29] The Value of Long-Term View in Business

People pleasers and perfectionists. How do you feel about conflict?

Managing a difficult conversation around a client complaint or having to manage communication with one of your team that aren’t performing?

If it makes you want to crawl under a rock or have the ground swallow you up, you’re not alone.

There is a very real and biologically inbuilt reason that most of us aren’t fans of conflict or difficult conversations. Humans want to feel like they belong. And when we have to tell someone something they may not like or agree with, our brains are wired to associate this with being ousted from the tribe, which 100s of years ago would have meant our chances of survival significantly decreased.

In this episode I explain the importance of being proactive in these situations rather than reactive, so that you can deal with the inevitable nature of disagreements in any human interaction. 

I share strategies that you can add into your toolkit so you avoid feeling disarmed when such issues arise and feel more empowered and in control.

Here are the highlights:

[00:28] Understanding Conflict Resolution in Business

[01:05] The Importance of Being Proactive in Conflict Management

[01:25] Personal Challenges Around Difficult Conversations 

[02:21] Tools for Difficult Conversations 

[03:08] Understanding the Role of Self Worth in Conflict

[03:55] Three Key Strategies for Conflict Resolution

[07:03] The Power of Cooperation in Conflict Resolution

[08:21] Moving from Threatened State to Solution Finding
