The Emily Osmond Show

I recently made an Instagram post about how to get your partner on board with your business and it certainly seemed to resonate with a number of people out there. I thought it would be a good topic to talk about on the podcast today.

As business owners, we live and breathe our businesses and they entwine into everything we do. It can be disheartening when friends and loved ones don’t quite have the same enthusiasm.

In this episode, I share about how I navigated the journey of starting my own business and talking to my fiance about how I needed support. At the end of the day, the only person you need to believe in your business is you.

Perhaps it’s time to stop telling people about your business and start showing them how you’re turning your dreams into reality.

In today’s episode I am lucky enough to be joined by the lovely Julia Green, a household name in the world of interior styling. She is one of the most published stylists in Australia over the last decade, having styled and written for numerous interior design magazines, including Inside Out, Real Living, and Home Beautiful.

Julie has appeared multiple times on “The Block” TV show and spoken at events such as Life in Style and Grand Designs Live. As if all that wasn’t enough, she’s also the founder of a thriving interiors wholesale business “Greenhouse Interiors” where she represents more than 40 boutique artists to hundreds of retailers in Australia and New Zealand.

Together we dive into the real, un-glossy side of business. She speaks candidly about the challenges, sacrifices, learning, and pressure involved with building and maintaining a successful business and well-known brand. I loved this chat and feel very grateful for her honesty in sharing her story and answering all of my questions.

Starting a business can be really daunting and scary, especially when it’s something you’re passionate about. What if it doesn’t work? What if I fail? What will that say about me?

I’ve noticed that a lot of people are afraid of claiming their work as a business and refer to what they’re doing as just a hobby or a side hustle. But are they just afraid of putting themselves out there?

In this episode, I talk about the importance of referring to your business as a business and how this sends a message to your clients, the people around you and to yourself.

Are you holding yourself back by staying in the comfort zone of hobby land? It’s time to get honest about what you really want and start claiming it for yourself. It’s time to call your business a business!

I recently had a client ask me how they could market themselves as an introvert.

As an Introvert myself I’ve faced this concern in the past but now know there really isn’t anything holding you back. So in today's episode I’m going to talk about how introverts can market themselves, the strengths introverts have, and some tips to utilise them.

If you’re an introvert this episode is for you and if you don’t know where you sit on the introversion/extroversion scale I’ve got you covered. I will share how to lean into your introversion while you market yourself, how to take care of yourself and make work easier, and how I challenged these limiting beliefs myself.

My guest on the show today is Ruby Lee, a 7 figure intuitive business coach who guides soul led entrepreneurs to grow and earn authentically in their coaching practises. From her corporate job as a tech startup recruiter, Ruby’s career has gone through several evolutions to where she is now; living a freedom based lifestyle as a digital nomad with her young family in tow.

In this episode, Ruby shares her journey from focusing on strategy and framework to understanding who she is and leaning into her intuition. She talks about how she uses different spiritual modalities to tap into her higher self in order to make soul aligned decisions in her business.

We talk about how Ruby’s business has evolved, how her leaning into spirituality has changed the way she does business and how it impacts on practical decisions such as strategy and marketing. Ruby shares how she works with her clients to empower them to tap into their own intuition, how we are all being guided and that all you need to do is ask.

Whether you already have some spiritual practises in place or are a complete newbie, I’m sure this conversation will spark some inspiration for you to start drawing from the energy that’s all around us. Who knows where it will take you.

Oh my goodness - don’t you love it (or not!) how you get to one level in business and start feeling comfortable... but you have a tugging in your heart about the next things you want to create and make happen?

But *those* things mean we have to move outside of our comfort zone AGAIN to do things that we have never done before and that feel BIG, scary and... uncomfortable.

Well here’s an honest chat about how I had to face the reality of the fears holding me back.

For me, the fear of REGRETTING that I didn’t take action eventually gets bigger than the fear of the action itself.

How about you?!

Tracy Secombe is an entrepreneur, personal development coach, mentor and former Miss Australia. She inherited the entrepreneurial spirit from her father and has run her own

businesses since she was 18 years old.

However, in 2016 when Tracy’s beloved mother passed away, she was reminded of the importance of making time for herself and her family and consolidated the three businesses that she was running at the time into launching her current business, Soul Pleaser.

In this episode we discuss the way people pleasing can show up for us; why we can struggle with indecision; how to combat the tendency to say ‘yes’ to everyone even when it is to our own detriment; why Tracy now puts herself first and believes you should too; and how to lean into listening to and pleasing our souls… rather than other people.
