Taking It Personally

In this episode, I’m speaking to you if you’re a solopreneur or micro-business owner who’s very involved in the day-to-day activities of your business,

Not only the service delivery (which, of course, is the lifeblood of your business), but also the external activities of marketing, visibility, engagement, promotion, sales - basically, the outward attraction, connection and conversion pieces. 

Because, here’s the thing:

Sometimes taking action on these pieces feels hard and it’s human to have doubts, fears and to wonder if what you’re doing is enough to achieve what you want (More clients? Consistent revenue? More time off? All of that?)

But, the bottom line for me is that

If you believe you’re here to build a heart-led impact driven business and achieve your every heart’s desire

Then that’s what you’re here for, and that’s what you’re capable of.

So you need to listen to this. Join me on this episode to talk about:

✨The ONE activity to focus on that’s crucial for your business success

✨FIVE questions to ask yourself (and say YES to) and

✨Why it’s OK to be FLAWED and EPIC (just like you are)

I’ve gone back and forth with myself over the last year or so about using the term leadership when it comes to you doing what you need to do to grow your business, because it’s not a term that immediately lands for solopreneurs and micro-business owners and I totally get why.

I didn’t think in terms of entrepreneurial leadership when I started my first business in the online space in 2016, nor this business, even though this one has always been about the growth of the business owner as the foundation for the growth of the business.

Leadership is a term we tend to associate with the Corporate world, with managing teams or having employees

However, it’s a term I’m going to stick with because

When you start a business, you take on an entrepreneurial leadership role

Even as a Solo or Micro-preneur.

Join me on today’s show to talk about why it’s costing you (money and so much more) in your business to ignore your entrepreneurial leadership development.

I loved this chat with my guest, Michelle Vroom, about a topic that’s so important to so many of us when we start our own business

And that’s not only maintaining a feeling of freedom in business, but actually experiencing freedom, whilst still getting clients / making money (and all the businessy things)!

Michelle is a business coach who believes that we as entrepreneurs should be able to get clients whenever we want and she uses her background in marketing and PR to help small business owners do just that, and grow their business to six figures, with more freedom and peace.

Join us on this episode of the podcast to hear Michelle’s sound advice based on her background, and her experience of growing her own multi-six figure business.

I’ve been taking stock after last week’s 100th episode and thinking about everything that’s happened over my past seven years in the online business space.

Join me to talk about:

Why I was really mean to myself over a print run (a reason I now know didn’t matter a jot)

Why as time went on, how I felt in business sort of got better but didn’t and

The simple realisation that changed my approach on the spot (It’s simple, but it took ages for the penny to drop for me. Let’s make sure it doesn’t take so long for you!)
