The Women In Business Radio Show

Is it possible to run a business when you've been diagnosed with depression, Bi-Polar and OCD?

Laura Ash, CEO and Founder of Rock Solid does just that and we hear her story, advice and she also reveals her special 7 step formula for overcoming fear.

Tune it to this show to hear about how that can work out and how Laura Ash uses her personal challenges to help her clients transform their bodies and minds.

Along the way, we explore the difference between anxiety and fear, some techniques for when you hit rock bottom and perhaps get inspired by how your business can thrive with, or because of your emotional challenges.

If you need a quick fix of power we share how you can tap into Wonder Woman to get that done.

Today we're joined in the studio by Clare Josa, author of Ditching Imposter Syndrome, and Tania Gough, founder of the Beauty Academy South East. Together we explore how to identify Imposter Syndrome, how to tell if it's Imposter Syndrome or Self Doubt.

There are some definite and potentially serious impacts on your business and career if you have Imposter Syndrome.

If you feel as though your forward momentum isn't what you want, need or deserve, then the solution could rest in this show.

So, pop in your headphones, maybe grab a coffee and join in.

It's also for you if you’re thinking of using a freelancer to avoid the problems of taking on a new member of staff.

Lots of business owners have been caught out! Listen in to find out how you to avoid being one of them.

Plus, the pitfalls of going into a partnership with others and how to avoid the problems of GDPR wherever you are in the world.

We are joined in the studio by Annabel Kaye, international keynote speaker and founder of KoffeeKlatch (she likes to test people with their spellings and I hope we’ve passed the test here) and she gives out the sort of no-nonsense advice about the legalities of being in business, and of just being in business that we all need to hear every now and then.

This is also the show where Brexit was renamed as Breakfast - a much better option don’t you think?
