  • Episode 158 | Bucking the Trend: My Hot Take on Social Media and Sales (plus a dirty little secret…)

    In this fiery episode, I serve up my own “hot take” on social media selling, discussing my alternative approach to the popular content-to-sale strategy. I delve into the reasons why, unlike many online entrepreneurs, I opt for tech and automation rather than constant performance on social platforms. Plus, I share my “dirty little secret” that I rarely check my Instagram analytics. Intrigued? You should be! 

    What You'll Learn

    - The unconventional approach to using social media in my sales process.
    - Why I'm drawn to tech, automation, and systems rather than constant social media performance.
    - My stance on Instagram analytics and the data I focus on instead.
    - How I utilize social media to fill my sales funnels, not to be my main sales avenue.
    - Why I prefer to refine and improve a few core programs rather than continually creating new ones.

    I’m challenging the norm on this one and taking you behind the scenes of my thought process around social media and how I’m currently using it.

  • Episode 157 | Jet-setting to Profits: My France Recap + Making $67k During Vacation

    Bonjour, dear listeners!

    I'm incredibly excited to share with you the details of my recent three-week trip to the beautiful South of France. From the enchanting streets of Aix-en-Provence to the historical gems of Toulouse, and the charming medieval town of Mirepoix, there's so much to unpack. 

    But that's not all. Travelling with kids, as many of you may know, requires a whole different level of preparation and patience. In this episode, I'll be sharing my top tips for making the journey enjoyable for the whole family.

    Then, we’ll shift gears and talk about something every entrepreneur dreams of: making money while taking time off. 

    Yes, you heard it right! I managed to pull in a cool $67k USD in product sales during my vacation. Want to know how? In this week's episode, I will spill the beans about the strategies I used, how I prepared my business for my absence, and exactly what products sold like hotcakes to rake in that dough.

    It's not magic, but a matter of careful planning and strategy. I will break down the four key areas you need to consider and build to ensure you have that same kind of financial stability in your sales. 

    In this episode, we'll dive into:

    1. My travel itinerary in the south of France – get ready for some serious travel inspo!
    2. Essential tips for travelling with kids to make your journey a breeze.
    3. How I made $67k in product sales while sipping on French wine and basking in the Mediterranean sun.
    4. Detailed insights into what sold and how I sold it to secure that impressive revenue.
    5. The four main things you, as an entrepreneur, need to consider and build for your own financial security and to maintain consistent sales, even when you're not actively in your business.

    So, buckle up for this blend of travel tales and business insights, designed to entertain, inspire, and educate. 

    Let's roll the tape!

  • Episode 153 | Calculating Your Financial Freedom Number and How I Track My Personal Net Worth

    I’m spilling the tea and serving up some serious money insights in the latest podcast episode! 

    It was at least 6-7 years ago when I first read about the idea of the “financial freedom” number. 

    I read about it in a book and immediately started doing the calculations on the back of my notepad to figure out how much we would need invested to retire and never have to make a penny again. 

    And while that number has changed and evolved over time, given the ideas and dreams my husband and I have for our family, the idea has stuck and is one that we are actively working towards. 

    (not that I want to retire anytime soon – but your girl loves having a goal!)

    In this week’s episode of the podcast, I’m diving into… 

    • The FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) movement
    • Helping you calculate your financial freedom number
    • And figuring out your personal net worth

    I’ll also share how I track our personal net worth every quarter – an idea that you can totally swipe for yourself. 

    Trust me, this episode could change everything about how you are thinking about your money.

    Lets roll the tape!

  • Episode 151 | Let’s talk MONEY

    In today’s episode of The Course Creator Show, I’m chatting about all things money!

    As someone who has always loved making my own money and saving it up, I didn't really start thinking about investing until I was in my twenties and bought my first house. It was then that I realized the true value of owning property and began to explore other avenues of investment.

    But let's be real, the world of finance can be overwhelming and confusing, especially for those who weren't taught about it in school. That's why I've made it my mission to educate myself and others on the best ways to create financial freedom and flexibility.

    In this episode, we'll be discussing some of the strategies I've used to manage my own money, as well as some tips on how to invest in stocks and real estate. Whether you're just starting out as an entrepreneur or you're looking to take your financial knowledge to the next level, this episode is for you.

    So grab a cup of coffee (or your preferred beverage of choice) and tune in to The Course Creator Show. Let's get ready to make some money moves!
