The Quiet Rebels® Podcast

Do you ever get a twinge of guilt whenever you want to take time off in your business? I know I have. Even when I've actually taken the time off instead of just thinking about it, my mind is *still* in business mode.

That's why I've brought on my guest today, Nicolle Bennett. She's the creator of the "Create Your Day Planner", a Certified Yin Yoga Instructor, and an Advisor for Social Change Organisations to help them get out of survival mode, so they can set and fulfill their meaningful goals. 

And she's here to share with us how we can incorporate intentional peace of mind in our businesses as we round of 2020, and beyond.

Y’know those “wheels” we’re always told to not reinvent? Well, they had to be created by someone at some point, right? And that someone… was a thought leader. 

As Quiet Rebels, many (if not all) of us already share the characteristic of a thought leader, and that’s by running our lives + businesses off the paved path. Instead, it’s one we carve for ourselves as we dare to discover what else can work - even if it’s something that’s never been done before.

That's why in today’s episode, I’m joined by our special guest, Danielle Cevallos - who has worked at the front lines with 7 & 8 figure thought leaders like Jasmine Star, Kelly Roach & Amanda Tress - and in our chat we cover:

• What is Thought Leadership?
• The key characteristics of ideal thought leaders 
• The different levels of thought leadership

And so much more!

The CEO mindset is exactly what it sounds - the beliefs, patterns and thought processes possessed by CEOs. And when starting a business, mindset is everything. Possessing the CEO mindset not only empowers you for long-term growth but also gives you the courage to face obstacles in the quest for success. When you become your own CEO, your forward movement and growth will happen with focus and ease.

In today’s episode, I speak with Maria Tan, the Business Coach for “Misfits”. Maria is on a mission to empower women across the globe to create successes tailored to their lifestyles. She’s been featured in several media like the Thrive Global, HuffPost, Elephant Journal, Pick the Brain and Addicted2Success. Maria shares about the mindset hack that one can use to do big things in their business, how the true abundance mindset kicks out the imposter syndrome, and why so many people haven’t embraced the CEO mindset yet. Tune in for a wakeup call to shifting from the employee to CEO mindset, today!

In a nutshell, we discuss:

- How to stay focused and the wonderful transformation that comes with the CEO mindset. 

- The limitations preventing you from being liberated and authentic.

- The level of responsibility that comes with the CEO mindset.

and so much more!

And more than any other social media platform, Instagram gives you an opportunity to create a buzz with almost everything! That being said, it takes a skill to stand out from the potentially hundreds (or even thousands) of accounts that your fans follow. 

To help you know how to create an authentic personal brand, I talk to Cheryl Lau, an online personal branding strategist who is on a mission is to help those from academic or professional backgrounds show up online confidently, create value-packed content, and start building their personal brand or online business.

It's time to rethink the way we use LinkedIn. You may (or may have not) noticed that LinkedIn has, over time, developed into a useful lead generation and relationship naturing platform for business owners and marketers. While using LinkedIn for lead generation can seem like a straight forward process, one needs to invest time and share quality content. 

In this episode, I talk to Michal, the founder of MichalEisikowitz.com, a micro agency that helps SaaS + B2B brands replace yawn-inducing website copy with engaging, data-driven messaging that resonates. She is also the founder of CopyTribe, a foundational mini-university for beginning copywriters that has trained 86 copywriters to date. Michal shares her thought on how business owners can leverage linked in to generate warm leads.

In a nutshell, we discuss:

-Who LinkedIn is for and who it's not

-The kind of content that gets you the most organic reach

- The 4 H’s that must be optimized if you’re getting started on LinkedIn now: Headshot, Header, Headline and Hook

and so much more!
