Emma McQueen is joined this episode by lawyer and good friend Tracey Mylecharane, and they discuss what they do to ensure they’re not overworked and overtired.

Belinda Eden almost had a break down. She and her husband had just refinanced their home to help Belinda pursue her dream of running her brand-new hospitality business. And then the pandemic hit. She was doing all she could to support her family, and waiting for things to subside. It wasn’t easy. In fact, it was horrible. Things did eventually open up, and almost overnight the light down the dark tunnel became super bright.

Belinda’s business, Troop Events, provides on-demand hospitality and event staff across Ballarat and regional Victoria. Since the lifting of restrictions, the business has taken off. It’s helped staff the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix as well as other events big and small. It’s got huge potential and Belinda has big plans for the future.

Be ready to be inspired and learn what it takes to run a business!

Emily Riglar readily admits that she fell into owning her own business. As a dedicated physiotherapist, she was presented with an opportunity to run her own practice. But, with no previous business training, she soon came to realise how much she needed to learn. Not only to ensure there is enough money each month for salaries, super and other myriad of things, but she needs to think long-term for business growth. All while still seeing clients. Fortunately, she has the support of other Thriving Women!

If you’re hiring someone, it’s so important to have a really solid onboarding process. Is it clear they know what to do? Do they have the right tools to get the job done? Are you showing them love and attention? You spend so much time and money finding the right candidate, you don’t want to lose them soon after they join. Kath Harris shares some of her wisdom this episode on how to get your HR on the right track. She explains the DiSC workshops she conducts to help leaders be better. As Founder and Director of UnscriptedHR, she also discusses her own business journey, and she offers advice for others who might be thinking of taking the leap into business ownership.

A lot of business owners feel icky around the whole concept of hustling. They shouldn’t – it’s a must in business. You can’t shy away from doing the hard yards to get more sales. Afterall, the work you do today will pay off in the future. Just remember to give yourself permission to take a break once in a while, so that you don’t fall in an exhausted heap! That’s the double-headed advice you’ll get as business lawyer Tracey Mylecharane joins Emma McQueen on this special Queen’s Counsel episode.

Do you set goals? Goal-setting is great, but it it’s all for nought if you don’t keep looking back at it and seeing if you’re on track. And don’t just do goal-setting for the sake of it, do it in a smart way, says Emma McQueen. Be crystal clear on your goals, and be flexible and realistic. If your goals are specific, you can then detail exactly what you need to do to achieve those goals.

It’s true that the most important asset in any business is its people. And, so, you want to make sure that you get your people stuff right. One of the biggest people issues is a lack of alignment, according to Emma’s guest today, Julia O’Reilly, Director of People & Growth Consulting. She says there could be misalignment between two people or between managers and staff. Whatever it is, she says, you need to sort out those differences so that your business can thrive. It’s more important than ever, because the world is changing more than ever.
