Episode 64

Released January 20, 2022

I asked Jeffrey on to the show because he talks about purpose in life. Many of us probably got asked this question when we were younger, “what do you want to do, or be” but not many of us ask it again when we get older. Or take the time to reflect on what it means when something just doesn’t feel right for us in life, or the work we’re doing.

Tuning in to our feelings like this may seem unusual, but it’s vital at times. Jeffrey feels we all have a major life purpose and listening to our intuition is part of this.

Episode 63

Released January 13, 2022

This week's guest is Kathleen Healy.

I asked Kathleen on to the show because I know how typical it is that we start January feeling fed up when we’ve over indulged over Christmas. Or, we decide to follow one more round of New Year’s resolutions.

It isn’t that we’re not committed, I believe in setting goals at any time of year, but when it comes to dieting, the whole concept feels fraught with stress.

So Kathleen and I discuss how she decided to stop after filling her trolley with another load of supplements in the hope they would help her drop the pounds. Instead, she chose to eat well and go on a journey which she’ll tell you about.

Episode 60

Released December 2, 2021

Elizabeth Bachman is a trained opera director and worked with many great singers, including Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo. On this week's show I talk to her about how her background had helped her in business.

Elizabeth feels that singers are entrepreneurs and just like anyone else in business, they needed to have a ‘vision’ of where they want to go and what this looks like. 

She has taken her skills and experience as an opera director and applied it to business, specifically to help women achieve greater success. This isn't exclusively for women as standing up for what you value and self-promotion, are skills everyone would do well to master.

Episode 59

Released November 25, 2021

This week's guest is Devin Miller.

Devin is a patent and trademark attorney and I asked him on to the show because I was interested in when and how we need to protect our intellectual property. Devin did a great job of explaining the difference between the 3 main methods.

A patent protects a physical object that does something; it makes, fixes, or produces another object. Trade marks are used when you want to protect your brand, and copyright when you have created something e.g., a model, approach, or design.

My feeling is that many of us are solopreneurs, or we go in to business as start-ups but don’t think enough about two things: firstly, how to protect ideas or approaches we have, and secondly, what we ultimately want the business to be.

For more insight into knowing when (and when not) to patent, use a trademark or copyright your work, check out the show.

In this episode I am joined by Elizabeth  Wright who started her VA business in 2016. Only 5 years later she developed a small team and moved in to offices to separate business and her personal life

Elizabeth always knew she wanted to do that and worked hard to set goals for herself that both motivated and encouraged her. She shares her experiences of the trials and tribulations of what it’s like to start your own business too, and how great that freedom can feel at first. The trouble is, many of us don’t realise the effort involved.
