The Olivia Louise Show

In this episode I'll be answering your burning questions like:

- Why are my downloads dropping?
-Should I just take a break, or should I keep podcasting?
- Is it insensitive to be podcasting and selling right now?
- What should I even talk about on my podcast now? Should I mention the pandemic or just ignore it?
- How do I record at home with the changed environment (with the kids, partners, and animals)?
- What do I do if I've already pre-recorded and batched my content/podcast episodes?

It is a strange time for all of us, but you'll be feeling much more clear and positive after this episode!

This is a Facebook Live recording (apologies for the quality of the audio!).
However, this is such an important topic: how to manage and cope in your business during the coronavirus.

I'll admit, I was struggling quite a bit with my mindset and how to navigate this situation, but after letting myself have the time to feel it out, I have processed it and have provided you with some helpful strategies to get you through this uncertain time as well!

In this episode:

-The difference between responding VERSUS reacting and how it impacts your energy.

• The things that you can journal about, and questions to reflect on to make you feel better and more in control during this time.

• How to move from the 'victim' to 'victor' mentality.

• Why it's a GOOD sign if you're fearful.

• What is "Behavioral Flexibility" and why is it such an important quality to have as a female entrepreneur.

• How to step into your emotional mastery, raising your vibration + frequency so that you feel better and how this in turn positively impacts your business + projects.

• Pivoting your business model from offline to online (with examples).

• How we can be inspired by Issac Newton in this time.

• Things I DON'T recommend doing while we live through the Coronavirus crisis.

Remember, we are greater than our external circumstances, and PERSISTENCE PAYS OFF. Don't stop doing what you're doing, we will all be ok. Hang in there Lady Friends! :)

Hey girlfriends, it’s time to dive into the whole purpose of this podcast: why YOU should start a side hustle!

Today was all about:

• My top 6 logical reasons, and my top 6 emotional reasons, why you should start your very own 'Side Hustle'!
• Why NOW is the time to jump in and start Side Hustling!
• I give you the current reality of our world and WHY you can’t wait around for more money to just appear (I do this also by listing all the events that are more likely to happen than winning the lotto!)
• Showing you how powerful and amazing starting a Side Hustle can be and how it can completely change your life for the better!
• How to start thinking about what your Side Hustle could look like (and reach out to me if you have any questions or thoughts)
• A quick testimonial from Susana Targett about what my discovery calls can do for you!

“By taking your financial matters into your own hands, it's empowering because you're diversifying the risk. You’re actually increasing your safety and looking after yourself.”

Due to popular demand on Instagram, today I had the amazing opportunity to discuss all things podcasting, with my Podcast Manager, 'Dana Drahos' (@dana.drahos)!
We talk about what it takes to start your own podcast, and more importantly, WHERE to start! Yay!

Here’s everything we covered today:

• Dana’s background and HOW she got into podcasting (how you can get into podcasting too!)
• Everything you need to start creating a podcast of your own (e.g. from the episode preparation, to the cover art, to the nitty-gritty details that no one else is sharing).
• All of the preparation and thought that goes in, prior to even launching your very own podcast.
• The technical requirements; such as podcast hosting and distributing methods.
• The reasons a podcast episode could be rejected through the distribution platforms.
• The overall costs for podcasting (hint: it’s really not a lot!)
• Feedback about how to know if podcasting is for you or not.
• The different perspectives when you’re just starting and how to overcome the fear gremlins.
• The future of podcasting in this modern world!

Thank you so much for listening, girlfriends, and definitely let me know in my Facebook group or send me a DM or comment below about your takeaways from this episode.

I would love to hear from you!

I joined Camille Joyce on her podcast, “The Heroic Soul,” to discuss becoming a Life Coach and setting that right mindset for being your best self.

Here's what we covered today!

- I gave my background about leaving my abusive partner, launching my first business, and how I moved towards my passion for helping others!
- We started talking about being aware of your self-mastery and how you work mentally and how you can use that to maximize your business and personal mindset.
- I list tons of examples from my life and what strategies I used to get myself in that positive, confident mindset, and how I used my self-mastery skills to launch my businesses and improve myself.
- I provide my tips for finding your passion and confidence after being in abusive situations, and how you can use that to not only help yourself but also start pursuing your dreams!

*Quotes*
“If you’re starting a business and you are the product, you’ve got to be aware of that because your traits are going to pop up in some capacity… so even if you’re selling a product or you’re selling a service, if you’re running that stuff, you really need to be aware of self-mastery.”
“I want you to think about what the highest version of yourself looks like. How could you be living your best life? That best version of you… how does she live, what does she wear, what does she look like, how does she behave, how does she present herself at work or at home or in a future relationship? Getting really clear on who that person is, and then basically being and doing so you can have what that person has.”
