So, nowwww you’re on board with the power of guesting on podcasts… but you’re probably thinking: “Where do I even start???”

This episode is answering that Q for you today, as I’m pretty much giving you a backstage pass into my process when I work with my 1-1 clients for podcast guesting.

These are the 5 things you need to think about FIRST before you even think about hitting that send button on your pitch. That’s if you want to reap the benefits of podcast guesting of course :)

This Episode is Sponsored by: Show Up & Be Heard - my signature podcast guesting program which teaches you the complete system of getting yourself booked on podcasts as a guest expert to grow your business.

It’s no secret that getting in front of the right people can do wonders for your business.

Whether you call it visibility, exposure, authority building etc - earning the opportunity to show up as an expert on other people’s platforms can allow you to spread your message and impact much further than you could do on your own.

This is why I want to highlight how one of these visibility methods has been the one thing that’s catapulted my business in many areas.

So in this episode of the podcast, I’m going to be sharing with you the 7 ways you can grow your business through the power of podcast guesting!

"Be realistic" <-- Eurgh, this is a piece of "advice" I'd get from so many naysayers when I'd actually talk about my ambitions, dreams, and goals.

With 2020 here, I'm willing to bet that at some point in all that excitement and enthusiasm to see what's possible... there's gonna be some naysayers and doubt goblins along the way.

That's why in this episode, I wanted to walk you through my signature coaching exercise to help you navigate through the naysayers, the doubt, and the fears that may grace your journey to greatness.

I'm willing to bet that most of the people you follow online have already shared their version of how to prepare yourself for the New Year.

And instead of adding too much to your already-filled plate, I thought to keep the process simple for you by introducing what's worked for me over the last few years: "Your One Word".

Instead of having a hyper-specific goal which feels nearly impossible to meet unless you're on your game 24/7, 365 days a year-- I've always found "Your One Word" to be my guiding star.

And today, I wanted to share that with you if wanted to spruce up your routine for preparing for 2020 :)

Thinking of slowing down before speeding up - but you don't know where to start?

Digital Minimalism is a concept I've learned of in the last few months, and it's coined by Cal Newport who wrote a book on the topic to help us live a focused life in a noisy world. And as entrepreneurs, it's SO easy to be a digital maximalist because we often feel like we have to be switched on 24/7 - because we can these days.

But, there's a cost to this addiction, right? And as many of us wrap up our businesses for 2019, I wanted to bring this episode to you before we're in the heart of the holiday season.

Thinking of hiring a new member to join your business, but you’re not sure how to screen for the right people to join your team?

Whether it’s your 1st or 100th time hiring someone, knowing how to spot valuable character traits in candidates will save you a lot of time, money and energy in the long run.

That's why my special guest today is none other than William Laitinen! He's the Managing Director of Exige International, and he's been in the recruitment industry for over 20 years. And so, he knows wayyy more than a thing or two when it comes to placing the right candidates in the position where they will thrive.

In today’s interview we talk about:

• The 4 values to look for in potential team members during the interview process
• The kinds of questions to ask to unveil those 4 values in action
• The internal shift we need to make in order to step into the leadership role

And so much more!

(Plus, he’s got a pretty impressive fact to share about himself at 53:46 in the interview!)

Have you ever had someone doubt you as a business owner because of how you look?

Today, I’m bringing on a special guest, Eman Zabi, who is the go-to person I think of when it comes to building resilience as an online business owner.

Why? Because she’s had to dodge the curveballs and leap over the hurdles placed in her path by people who see her colour before her brilliance.

Yep, today’s conversation is a little different than what we’ve spoken about on the podcast so far, but I believe that it was an important one for us to tune into.

Listen closely as Eman shares her story of how:

• She wrote 6 sales pages for only $500 (altogether, not each!)
• She handled project rejections after prospective clients learned about her ethnic background
• She incorporates martial art mentalities into her business

And so much more!

Thinking of raising your prices in 2020, but you’re not sure how to do it or how much you should raise them by? 

Whenever it came to pricing my offers in my business, I have to be honest and say I’ve always struggled with it. Why? Because for the longest of times, I used to take the “Charge what you’re worth” advice literally.

And whenever I did follow that advice, I always found myself super burnt out for doing so much work and charging so little…

In other words, I'm a chronic undercharger. 

Can you relate to this? Because if you can, I have got you oh so covered in this episode with my special guest today - Lisa Mullis.

In this interview we’re going to dive into:

• Why “overdelivering” can be the wrong badge of honour to wear as an entrepreneur
• Whether you should put your prices on your website or not
• How to detach “self worth” when you’re pricing your offers

And so much more!
