This week I’m sharing a topline debrief on my recent Bold Darling launch.  My intention with this launch was to make it feel like a great big party, keep my energy as high as possible throughout… and bring in lots of brilliant new Bold Darling members!

In this chatty episode, I share:

• A snapshot of what’s been going on on both the business and personal front this past month
• What I feel went wrong with my last launch, and how I wanted to rectify that this time around
• How the concept of the GLOW UP came about
• The epic resistance that I had to navigate as I created it 
• The huge realisation I’ve had about what I’m ACTUALLY selling in my business
• My two secret weapons to keeping my energy high throughout 
• The tactics that really worked during the launch, and…
• …those that really didn’t!
• How nail-biting the last day was - and how I turned it around 
• The insights that I’m taking into my next launch 

I also share an important update on my future plans for this show.

Some resources I share are:

• Do The Work book by Steven Pressfield
• RTT practitioner Rachel Crethar
• Bonjoro video messaging software 

I hope you enjoy this debrief, and that the lessons I share in it help you with your next launch.

This week on the podcast I’m featuring a conversion with one of my wonderful friends, Melissa Ambrosini.  Melissa is a bestselling author, podcaster and speaker… and she also became mama to beautiful Bambi last year.

Becoming a mama was one of Melissa’s greatest ambitions, and she prepared for YEARS for this role!  I love talking to her about how she navigated a thriving business and starting a family. 

In our conversation, we cover:

• Who Melissa “pre Bambi” was
• The wait to conceive, and how that sat with her as a Type A biz owner (I can speak from experience with this one too - ha!)
• How she cared for herself during pregnancy, while also doing what was needed in her business
• What her plans were for maternity leave - and how those plans transpired 
• Birthing a book and a baby at the same time and how she navigated that
• How becoming a mama has changed her approach to business... and what has stayed the same
• One piece of advice she wants to share with wannabe business mamas
• And one piece of advice to business mamas

Melissa also talks about her new program, Wholy Mama - the ultimate guide to conception, birth, postpartum and conscious parenting.  You can find out about it here: wholymama.com.

Another resource Melissa shares is her postpartum guide, which you can download here: https://melissaambrosini.com/postpartum.
