The Quiet Powerhouse Podcast

“We do NOT have to do it all, and it took me a really long time to realise that… there are people out there who can help you with your business, with small, recurring projects or a couple of hours a week.”

—  Julie Greenham

Do you wear all of the hats in your business?

It’s common for entrepreneurs, especially during the start-up phase, to take on multiple roles in their businesses, from sales to operations to marketing to administration. An entrepreneur is often a CEO, website designer, podcast editor, copywriter, executive assistant, and graphic designer, all rolled into one!

While it may seem more cost-effective to take on all of the work yourself, it can lead to exhaustion, overwhelm… and eventual burnout.

I myself took on all of these roles in my business for six years. I felt discouraged, tired, and unmotivated, which made it challenging to do the work that I actually loved doing. Once you’ve spread yourself too thin, your business WILL suffer. 

The good news? You do NOT have to do it all. And you shouldn’t!

So many of us delay hiring or outsourcing, believing that we need to make a lot more money before it makes sense to build a team. 

But outsourcing recurring and administrative tasks frees you up to work in your zone of genius and do the things that create the most value for your business — which actually boosts your revenue!

If you’re ready to learn how to delegate your way to new levels of success, press play — it all starts right now.

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• Why hiring a team doesn’t necessarily mean bringing people on full-time — and how just 1-2 hours a week can make a huge difference 
• Why you need to learn how to give up control and trust others to own their tasks in order to grow and scale your business
• How finally outsourcing my recurring tasks led me to a surprising discovery!

Highlights:‌ ‌

01:05  Doing ‘all the things’

02:54  Hire before you think you’re ready

03:35  Time management & delegation

“Has anybody ever asked you for any kind of credentials? Most often, the answer is no. So my message for you is to stop hiding: you’re enough. Go out there and create.”

—  Julie Greenham

The topic of this podcast is one that tends to come up a lot in conversations with my clients, with members of the Mindful Entrepreneur Membership, and with entrepreneur friends of mine… and it’s a topic that used to come up quite often in conversation with myself, as well.

That’s right: this week’s episode is all about credibility.

Specifically, the idea that you need more credentials and certifications in order to feel worthy of serving your clients or audience.

Most often, this isn’t an idea that is brought up by the people we serve! It’s an idea that stems from inside ourselves — from the fear that we aren’t good enough or don’t have necessary expertise to help people or raise our prices if we don’t have that MBA, CPA, PCM, or any number of industry certifications.

This specific fear is something that we may unconsciously hide behind in order to avoid stepping out and showing up for our people. 

I’m here to tell you that you’re ready, right now, to charge what you’re worth — even without those certifications!

What’s more important than the extra letters behind your name is your excitement, enthusiasm, experience, and desire to truly create positive, transformational impact for those you serve. Press play to learn more!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• When credentials actually matter — and when they aren’t important
• A real-life case study of finding success without traditional credentials 
• How to draw upon your uniqueness in order to carve your own path and serve in alignment

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:01  Intro

01:38  What you REALLY need‌

02:34  Practice makes better

03:47  French tutoring example

06:00  How can you carve your own way?

07:12  When credentials matter (& don’t)

09:10  No one asks

“We forget that everything we do or decide can be changed, or the course can be corrected. We can change directions whenever we please.”

—  Julie Greenham

If you’re the type of person who downloads freebies, signs up for courses and masterclasses, and subscribes to newsletters, you’ll want to listen to this episode!

This week, I’m reaching out to all of the quiet powerhouses who have no problem consuming content — but find that they may have some trouble putting their lessons into action.

Many of us buy business books or register for webinars with the very best intentions — this time, we tell ourselves, we’re really going to use our new knowledge to take our businesses to the next level by implementing new techniques or working on our mindset shifts.

But, somehow, we wind up feeling blocked when we actually try to make those changes!

As entrepreneurs, we tend to be fearful once we’ve consumed a lot of content, because we believe that we have to execute things PERFECTLY in order to succeed.

Full disclosure: I’ve been there myself, many times.

From conquering perfectionism to recognizing and honouring your past achievements, this episode will explore how to shift from intention to implementation more comfortably!

It all starts right now — just press play.

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• Why you can sometimes become stuck in ‘learning mode’ — and the mindset shift that will help you overcome the fear of not being ready to move forward
• The importance of becoming okay with the idea of “good enough” and being open to learning from imperfections
• Why you need to look back in addition to looking ahead (and how it can help to boost your confidence)

P.S. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a 5-star rating and review — it’ll help me reach other introverted entrepreneurs.

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:01  Intro

01:07  Perfectionism & fear  ‌

03:33  Embrace the beginner’s journey

04:23  Looking back

05:46  Gymnastics lesson story

07:44  Where the magic lies!

“Some people put so much energy into content creation and relying on social media to create clients and customers. But we want to speak to them outside of all of these platforms. That’s why an email list is so great… email is not dead.”

—  Julie Greenham

I want you to make at least one mistake tomorrow. Don’t worry — you’ll thank me later!

This week’s episode of The Quiet Powerhouse Podcast is the second in a two-part series tackling the 10 biggest mistakes that introverted business owners make when trying to sell or launch an offer.

As I mentioned in the last episode, “mistake” is not a bad word — we want to make as many mistakes as possible in our business, and as early as we possibly can.

Without mistakes, we don’t learn and grow. Mistakes help us gain clarity, develop stronger offers, and refine our messaging. This episode is all about the mistakes that I have made in my own business, what they taught me, and how I’ve used these insights to become a smarter and more successful business owner.

Have you ever been too afraid of rejection to follow up with prospects? 

Are you curious about why your last launch didn’t hit your revenue goals?

Do you forget to ask your customers what they REALLY think about your product or service?

Press play to let MY mistakes help YOU grow your business more quickly!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• How to work WITH your audience to co-create your next offer — and then promote it properly!
• The #1 marketing tool that many modern entrepreneurs overlook 
• Why you shouldn’t be afraid to create custom offers for past or current clients

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:46  Intro

01:51  Not co-creating offers with your audience 

03:39  Not promoting enough

05:43  Not having an email list

07:09  Not following up

08:57  Don’t make assumptions! 

10:24  Not getting feedback

11:47  Open up the conversation! 

13:29  Create a new offer

“If you have the resiliency and support and are able to figure out what is currently not working, or why you had that result that you didn’t want… there’s always a solution.”

—  Julie Greenham

Do you have a favourite mistake?

This episode is the first in a two-part series tackling the 10 biggest mistakes that I see introverted entrepreneurs and business owners make when they are trying to sell or launch an offer — whether it’s a service or a product.

And I mean “mistakes” in the best possible way.

Behind every impressive and successful business owner, you will find a trail of mistakes and missteps that they have overcome and learned from over the course of building their businesses.

Without mistakes, we don’t gain clarity. Mistakes help us develop stronger offers.

The earlier we can make mistakes, the easier it will be to grow our businesses!

Every mistake featured in this two-part series is a mistake that I have made in my own business (sometimes more than once!). And I am grateful for each and every one of them.

Press play to learn how MY mistakes can help YOU build a stronger, more successful business. It all starts right now!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• The three pieces that you need to include when crafting an effective marketing message 
• The difference between internal and external strategies — and why you must focus on both for best results
• Your real responsibility when on a sales call (it isn’t just listing the features and benefits of your offer)

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:48  Intro

01:06  What’s a mistake? 

01:52  There is always a solution

02:30  Missing your marketing message

04:43  What customers really care about

05:39  Launching with a misaligned message ‌

07:20  Only working on external strategies

“I choose where I spend my money, and when I do that… I want to have the full experience. I want you to show me that, in every single part of my experience, you’re delivering on your values and your integrity and the things that you say you will do.”

—  Julie Greenham

Are you worried that you’re teaching or helping others with something that you haven’t fully mastered yet?

Here’s a quick news flash: very few people will ever reach the point of truly mastering something.

And that’s okay!

You can help people at a very high level, even if you still have a lot to learn yourself. You only have to be a few steps ahead of those you are teaching in order to offer real, significant value.

Perfection is not a requirement.

It is through making mistakes that we gain a deeper understanding of the things that we’re teaching, after all. And you can offer more value to people when your knowledge has been enriched by missteps and challenges — and finding ways to work through them.

What’s more important than true mastery? Consistently working on the things we’re teaching and integrating them into the way we run our businesses. 

When we operate our businesses in alignment with our values and teachings, that deepens the experience not only for our customers, but for ourselves… even when we don’t feel like top-level masters.

Where can you infuse more integrity and alignment into your business?

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• An example of a businesses operating out of alignment with their values or teachings 
• An example of a business that delivers value with integrity throughout the entire customer experience
• The power of NOT hiding your stumbles and imperfections — and how to stop underestimating your own knowledge!

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:47  Intro

01:21  My 2021 example ‌

02:20  Organic cafe & soap example

03:55  Spa example

05:18  True mastery is rare

“People purchase for two things: they want more pleasure with something or they want to take pain away… and they are looking for your product or service to do just that.”

—  Julie Greenham

Too often, introverted entrepreneurs (especially women) do not price their offers anywhere near what they are actually worth.

It can be even harder to charge a fair price once you’ve already built up a client base.

We worry that raising our prices might lead to our clients rejecting us and our offers. We worry that charging more may turn off potential new clients. And we worry that our services aren’t worth more than what we already earn for them.

All of these emotions and feelings around money and worth can keep us trapped in a situation where we are working twice as hard as we need to, because we are consistently undervaluing ourselves.

It doesn’t need to be that way!

The truth is that people WILL purchase your offer after you price it appropriately, just as long as you are able to convey the value through a compelling “So that you can” positioning statement and some social proof.

In this episode, I share two tips to help you raise your prices — without falling into a spiral of self doubt, uncertainty, and worry.

Yes, you ARE worth it!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• Why it’s so important to convey the true value of your offer — and where to communicate this information when raising your pricing
• How to create a premium experience that delivers 3x the value  
• My strategy when it comes to highlighting the benefits of my own offers

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:48  Intro

01:27  Convey the value ‌

02:42  Why people make purchases

03:11  Mindfulness example  

04:40  Deliver 3x the value & connect those dots

“We cannot have MORE if we’re stuck on our limitations.”

—  Julie Greenham

How do we accept and welcome having more in our lives? More clients, more money, and more freedom?

It all comes down to mindset.

This episode of The Quiet Powerhouse Podcast is about the five abundance mindset blocks that I see most often when I am working with my coaching clients… and have actually experienced myself.

These mindset blocks can make it challenging for us to actually RECEIVE the good things in life — the success, wealth, and joy — that we’ve been working toward and truly deserve.

This year, I want you to develop a mindset that works FOR you, rather than against you.

From neutralizing your intrusive, negative beliefs to fighting back against your imposter syndrome, this episode will help you heal the mindset blocks that stand between you and your dream life!

Let’s get started!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• The difference between a fixed mindset & a growth mindset — and why it matters so much in all facets of life
• How to become a neutral observer of your thoughts and feelings, instead of letting that little voice drag you down
• Visualization tricks that will help boost your confidence in any situation

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:46  Intro

01:47  Don’t get stuck in a fixed mindset

04:25  That voice in your head

“When we’re feeling unclear and overwhelmed and we just don’t know our next step… we want to prioritize.”

“Mindset is the killer of all the dreams.”

—  Julie Greenham

The #1 question that I hear from my coaching clients is: “How do you start to believe that you’re worthy of more success, more good things, more joy, more clients, more money, and more freedom?”

Often, in order to really travel the path to prosperity, you have to first undergo a significant internal shift and change some of your deep-seated beliefs about money, power, and your own capability. 

Mindset is a topic that has really come into vogue lately, and for a good reason — even if ALL other pieces are in place, your mindset can still hold you back from taking risks, accepting opportunities, and embracing success.

In this episode, I share four things that you can do right now to help you shift your attitude, beliefs, and mindset… and learn how to welcome, achieve, and even expect your own success!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

• How being open to new perspectives will help you take advantage of new opportunities to learn 
• The #1 red flag that I look out for when taking on new clients (and why this trait inhibits their ability to grow)
• How to reframe the issues we face in our businesses in order to better solve them

Highlights:‌ ‌

00:47  Intro

01:38  What is mindset? ‌

02:22  How to change your results

03:15  Open up to new perspectives

05:48  Challenges, not problems

07:31  Persistence is a virtue

08:08  Direction & gratitude

09:37  The Law of Attraction & hormones

11:00  Small steps lead to big changes
