The Quiet Powerhouse Podcast

Today my guest is Sharon Roe, a writer and editor. Several years ago she experienced personal and financial adversities and needed to reinvent herself. After a longer than expected job search without any offers, Sharon decided to start her own business without any formal training. A daunting task for sure! But she did it, and continues to grow her business today, by developing her emotional toolbox.

In this episode Sharon shares her struggles and outlines the 5 things she either needed to embrace or release, to not only survive but thrive. Her advice will help other introverted business owners grow and succeed regardless of their life experiences and current skill level. All it takes are the right tools and the right attitude.

BIO

In a couple of past lives, Sharon has handed out alcohol samples at local liquor stores, sold sapphires and rubies to sheikhs from the Middle East, taught English to 75 year old Japanese ladies, and edited more than a few romance novels.

These days, she’s utilizing the skills picked up from those diverse experiences to teach writers how to tell stories that won’t let their readers go. “Come. Look at this ruby under the light.”

“What do you do?” is a question most introverts dread being asked. My guest this week, Monica Schrock, explains why.

At this point, I would normally tell you a bit about Monica. But in light of this topic, I invite you to listen in to find out who she is and what she does.

She makes insightful points on this subject and explains her own past struggles in proclaiming her zone of genius and how she overcame them. 

BIO

Monica is a cautiously optimistic, introverted copywriter with a mean coffee habit and serious nerd streak living in the Pacific Northwest.

She revels at the intersection between cause and strategy, hoping to make the world a better place one word at a time. Monica has spent the last 13 years navigating the inherently extroverted profession of marketing, helping over 200 clients craft their message, and increase their sales or donations from double to over ten times. 

Her true joy lies at the moment she gets to craft a message that captures the essence of why a movement, organization, or brand was created. 

Now she helps introverted business owners make a full-time income with their services without the pressure of acting extroverted through marketing confidence and words that convert.

In-person networking doesn’t come easy to all of us. So perhaps in this period of physical distancing, introverts can get in the game with greater ease.

Is online networking easier to navigate for the “Quiet Powerhouse”? Indeed it is, according to today’s guest Angela Hall. There are so many of us who are attending virtual meetings and networking events over Zoom or Skype during this pandemic, and it’s a great time to exercise our mingling muscles from the comfort of our own homes.

Angela offers advice on what, and what not, to do when participating in an online event. She also discusses how to connect with others on an individual basis during and after the event.

Embrace online networking now and you can make friends and business connections across the globe!
