The Messy Mind Podcast

I broke all podcasting rules on this episode! No editing, no filters, no 2nd recordings, no do-overs and a TON of fillers. Just real talk about the thoughts swirling through my head when I think about my wellness and beauty professionals!

As a follow up to my LinkedIn post on 4/13/2020, I've been thinking about my wellness, health and beauty professionals. I've been wondering if they are thinking about their people, processes and systems/technology to handle the influx of new and existing clients as soon as the stay @ home orders are removed.

Listen in as I ask thought provoking questions which can only answered with ACTION. These are the thoughts and questions swirling in my head and may spark a level of creative thinking to support your efforts.

Always consult your accountant, lawyer or professional advisor before executing on your efforts or any information related to a change in your lifestyle, business or finances.

I'm not a beauty professional nor have a worked in the industry. I'm just a bonafide "pamper-myself" junkie who loves a great massage, haircut and eyebrow waxing who can't wait to sit in the chair or lay on the table again!

I'm also an entrepreneur who LOVES supporting businesses, especially small businesses to thrive!

As individuals, we have been so conditioned to believe the only way we can operate is within parameters that have been set forth for ourselves WHEN we become empowered, and yet we don't understand we have everything we need. Being empowered is a knowing; truly believing you have everything you need to execute your goals and operate within your vision.

We often struggle to go outside of the limitations we have placed on ourselves. Empowerment is about helping people change how they think about themselves, so they can operate and think about what they can and cannot do.

Empowerment has more depth than people realize as they say the word.

There are 4 aspects to empowerment:

1. Empowerment is the freedom to BE you!

2. Confidence is the first pillar to being empowered.

3. Stretching or going beyond the limitations you have set for yourself is a viable way to BEING more empowered.

4. Understanding… truly knowing and believing you are more than the parameters you have set around yourself.

Happy Women's History Month! This is the perfect time for me to celebrate two women who I admired greatly: Arlan Hamilton, Founder and Managing Partner of Backstage Capital (https://backstagecapital.com/) and Monica Kang, CEO of Innovators Box (https://innovatorsbox.com/).

Here is the link to the Backstage Tour 2020 (https://backstagecapital.com/tour2020/) where I will finally get to meet Ms. Hamilton in DC!

In the episode, I was completely off on the numbers for Backstage Capital. Backstage Capital has invested over $7M in more than 120 companies led by underrepresented founders. Go Mrs. Hamilton!
