Over the years that I’ve spent coaching entrepreneurs, I’ve seen far too many fall into the trap of becoming obsessed with their goals. Becoming overly fixated on achieving one specific outcome makes it harder to maintain the flexibility that is needed to pivot or shift your goals when necessary. When this rigidity and singlemindedness leads you to try to force a particular result, chances are you will not even come close to the finish line — and this can discourage you from trying again in the future.

What we need to do as a collective is shift the way that we approach our goals.

In this Mindset Monday mini-episode, you’ll discover how to cultivate a healthier mindset around goal-setting — one that feels better each and every step of the way! 

Listen now to learn:‌ ‌

• The difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset 
• How working toward your goals can fit more comfortably (and joyfully) into your daily or weekly schedule 
• How practicing the Law of Detachment will help you better enjoy the journey to your goal — even when it takes some unexpected turns!

Can manifestation really help you build a life that you love? My guest for this episode of The Business of Thinking Big is Rebecca Lane, a violinist who has blended her love of music with her entrepreneurial spirit to create something incredible… and she credits manifestation with helping her reach her biggest goals! 

Rebecca is the founder of the Lane School of Music. As a musician, she entered the business world with a scarcity mindset, which she needed to shed in order to dream bigger. While she launched the school out of a spare room in her house, the school now offers lessons to over 700 students through its multiple locations! Rebecca now coaches other music school owners to shift from a ‘starving artist’ mindset to one of abundance.

During our conversation, Rebecca and I explore the concept of manifestation: what it is (and isn’t!), how it actually works, and how it can work for YOU. The truth is that we are all always manifesting, whether we know it or not. The key? Manifesting with intention to create a joyful life and business!  

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• How to identify the goals and desires that will actually fulfil your needs 
• Why it’s okay to change your mind halfway down the path to your goals 
• Real-life examples of how Rebecca infuses manifestation into her business (and why they work!)

Guest bio: Once a freelancing violinist, Rebecca has transformed her career to entrepreneur, coach, and 7-figure business owner. Starting with a violin studio of a handful of students in her home, Rebecca now owns a music school with over 50 team members and 4 locations. It all started with a dream and the belief that anything is possible. She is the host of The Powerhouse Musician Podcast.

“Living the dream.” That’s what we’re all working toward, but why does it seem to fall just out of reach for so many people? Why aren’t more of us living the dream right now?

Now, if your version of living the dream is owning your own island, that’s one thing! But for most of us, living the dream shouldn’t be so elusive. Quite often, our dream lives can be attained through smaller shifts, rather than dramatic changes. Whether it’s travelling more, having more time to spend with your family, or enjoying a creative outlet, our dreams are often closer to reality than we might think. 

In this Mindset Monday mini-episode, you’ll discover three major reasons why so many women are not living their dreams right now — and how you can get off the hamster wheel and start building the life that you want and deserve!

Listen now to learn:‌ ‌

• Why you need to cultivate space to focus on your dreams — and give yourself permission to do so!
• Why you might not be dreaming big enough 
• How the saying “you’ve got to see it to believe it” gets it wrong

We’ve all had the experience of walking into a store or buying a service online, and knowing almost immediately that it would be the first and only time. We’ve also had the experience of revisiting a shop or a website again and again (sometimes when we aren’t even looking to buy anything!). 

What sets these experiences apart? It’s the way that each particular business makes you feel.

Brand experience goes FAR beyond just the delivery of a product or service. It includes your marketing, your communication, your positioning, your customer service, your aesthetic — even your physical store layout, if you’re a brick-and-mortar business. And when it comes to brand experience, small details can make a big impact!

What does your business look like through the eyes of your customers? What is it like to engage with your brand — and how do you keep people coming back for more?

In this episode of The Business of Thinking Big, I explore a case study of a business that offers a brand experience so fantastic that it actually had me revisiting their shop multiple times a week and spending money each time. Listen now to discover actionable tips that will help any type of business create an irresistible brand experience! 

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll learn:‌ ‌

• How to create a welcoming and appealing environment in your business 
• How to avoid stifling visitors to your website or store and let them explore your offers comfortably 
• How to effectively communicate what you offer in a way that people can instantly understand

Money mindset is something that comes up in my work with women entrepreneurs quite frequently — maybe more than any other topic relating to mindset!

There are a few reasons why so many women struggle with their money mindset. Women often feel as though they’ve fallen into the business world by accident, and their lack of business background leaves them feeling unconfident and overwhelmed by the financial side of their business. Not only that, but as women we’re largely conditioned by society to believe that we are “frivolous” or “bad with money,” and these limiting beliefs can be deeply ingrained in us even before we reach our teen years! We also tend to struggle with pricing our offers, and can be held back by imposter syndrome or the fear of seeming “greedy.”

In this Mindset Monday mini-episode, you’ll discover how to rehabilitate your money mindset, build a healthier and more productive relationship with your own professional ambition, and start earning what you are worth!

Listen now to learn:‌ ‌

• The #1 thing you need to believe in order to build a profitable business 
• What to consider when setting your pricing 
• A shortcut that will help you identify your most emotionally fulfilling goals and create more positive feelings about money

How often do you find yourself thinking “I’d really like to do XYZ for my business… but I just don’t have time”? So many of us are full of dreams and goals that would bring us more profit and fulfilment, but we just can’t seem to put these plans into motion. In this episode of The Business of Thinking Big, I sit down with Heather Chauvin, a woman with a deep and hard-won understanding of how to use the time you have to create the life of your dreams!

Heather is a brilliant leadership coach, author, host of the Emotionally Uncomfortable podcast, and the creator of Mastery Business, a program that helps female founders increase their profits and sustainably scale while making a bigger impact in all areas of their lives.

During this conversation, we dig into the deeper nuances of time management: how to stay energized with a full To Do list, why we are afraid of saying no to unwanted claims on our time (and how to fix this!), and how life-altering circumstances can dramatically shift the way that you prioritize your time. Along the way, Heather shares some truly inspirational and actionable golden nuggets — you won’t want to miss it!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• What led Heather to leave her cushy corporate path and how trauma helped her to clarify her soul mission
• How the small choices that you make each day can overcomplicate in your life in big ways 
• How energetic time management can help you create a more aligned schedule 

Guest bio: Heather Chauvin is a leadership coach who helps ‘successful’ women courageously and authentically live, work, and parent on their own terms.

Getting the life of your dreams very, very rarely comes down to luck alone! There is a lot of inner work that must be done in order to build the life and business of your dreams.

Over the years, I’ve spent countless hours coaching people at different stages of success on how to set their goals, how to build their businesses, and how to shift their mindsets. One thing that has stood out to me is this: the people that seem to have the life and business of their dreams didn’t always have it all figured out! The big difference between these people and others who were still wishing and hoping is that they took the time to do the INNER work.

Through this inner work, they were able to truly believe in their goals and dreams (well before it was even rational to do so!). They were able to truly believe in their own ability to bring them to fruition… and then they did exactly that! In this Mindset Monday mini-episode, you’ll discover how to shift your mindset regarding your biggest goals from “That feels impossible” to “I’ve got this!”

Listen now to learn:‌ ‌

• A simple exercise that will help you recognize your amazing ability to turn thoughts into successful actions 
• The difference between reciting affirmations and cultivating authentic belief in yourself 
• How to recognize when your brain shifts into ‘research mode’ — the first step to believing that something is possible!

Over the course of running your business, you’ll get comfortable doing the things that you do well, the things that are easy, and the things that bring you joy. But during most weeks, there will likely be something on your To-Do List that you’d prefer to avoid. While these tasks may feel challenging or intimidating, they are frequently tasks that will really move the needle in your business. Often, these tasks wind up being put off for hours, days, or even weeks, when they SHOULD be prioritized!

 

When you’re “eating the frog,” you’re tackling these tasks head-on and knocking them off your list — and you’re doing them FIRST.

In this Mindset Monday mini-episode, you’ll discover how to master the fine art of eating the frog and how this rare skill will benefit your business and your life! 

Listen now to learn:‌ ‌

• My top tips for preparing yourself, your schedule, and your space for effective frog-eating 
• How eating the frog can help you become more confident in your CEO role  
• A real-life example of how I’ve eaten the frog in my own business

When you are your own boss, you get to set your own rules and do things differently. But would you say that you are living the dream?

There are as many different versions of “the dream” as there are entrepreneurs. For some, it might mean spending part of the year working in another country (or on the beach!). For others, it could mean structuring your week so that you can spend more time with your family. And some might consider the dream to be shifting to a new business model altogether.

Your version of the dream may not necessarily be easy, simple, neat, or convenient. It may require more time, more planning, more flexibility, or more buy-in from your team. But your dream is waiting to be claimed… and there is always a way to make it happen! 

In this episode, I share my own version of the dream and how I have made it a reality for myself and my family. Tune in to learn how I got clear on what my dream really was, what we did to make it happen, and what YOU can learn from my journey!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• Why I’ve decided to take my family on a trip to the south of France this summer — and why NOW was the perfect time
• Why you should give yourself permission to dream beyond what is merely “possible” and embrace your authentic desires
• Why there will always be reasons NOT to do something — and why the reasons to do something are more important
