Woman Owned: The Growth Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs

Many entrepreneurs dream of attracting high-end clients, but what many do not realize is how their messaging and branding may be the difference between attracting those clients - and pushing them away. The way you articulate your message, the way your message makes others feel, and the way you position your brand makes a huge impact on your ability to attract the clients of your dreams.

On today's episode, I share one of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make when trying to position themselves as a preeminent leader. I explain the difference between constructive messaging and destructive communication and how destructive communication can actually generate negative emotions toward your brand. I also explain the three levels of client-focused messaging and how to use these levels to position yourself and your brand as the preeminent leader in your industry.

"The key to establishing yourself in that premier position - that top position - is to demonstrate to your client that you understand their problem." - Eleanor Beaton

With many business strategies out there, worthiness is one of the least discussed. Leaders and entrepreneurs have been so busy with the 'doing' that they forget how crucial the 'being' truly is. If you equate your self-worth with the skills you master and successes you achieve, have you ever wondered what would happen if your skills aren't enough or you don't meet the achievements you have set for yourself and your company?

Keep Reading >>

Today I discuss why worthiness is critical for female entrepreneurs and how your business growth is directly related to your sense of worth. I share my journey with worthiness and how my business benefited from that journey. I explain the difference between working hard and workaholism. I also share a powerful tool you can use to assess your beliefs as this examination paves the way for building a sense of worthiness.

"Your business growth is tied to your personal growth. There is no business strategy that can make up for a lack of worthiness in the leader of that business." - Eleanor Beaton

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

• The difference between working hard and workaholism
• The central problem that women entrepreneurs are looking to solve inside their own business
• What happens when you lack a sense of worth
• When entrepreneurial results truly start to show

If you're like many female entrepreneurs - you have this love-hate relationship with your expert status. You know it's critical to share your unique perspective and points-of-view but accepting your position as the preeminent expert in your field may feel uncomfortable or unnecessarily 'braggy.'

There are many courses, seminars, and programs available on entrepreneurship. And while the information shared in these programs are often phenomenal and can teach you a lot about the 'doing' behind being an entrepreneur - there is one thing that is often lacking.

Addressing your mind - your mindset.

Keep Reading >>

Your thoughts and your mindset are critical for achieving your goals and dreams as an entrepreneur. It's just as important to manage your mind as it is to manage your time, your team, and even your finances. But how do you take control of your thoughts and feelings?

Today, I explain how managing your mind impacts your growth and success as an entrepreneur. I discuss the impact of cognitive strain, stress, and worry on your ability to achieve your goals and aspirations and the connection between your circumstances, thoughts, feelings, and the actions you decide to take. I also share a simple strategy you can use to help you identify unconstructive thoughts and replace them with ones that will better serve you and your vision for your business.

"You have the power and freedom to choose your thoughts - and to choose what you will believe." - Eleanor Beaton

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

• The importance of managing your time and energy.
• The impact of cognitive strain.
• The process of managing your mind.
• The connection between your circumstances, your thoughts, your feelings, and the actions you decide to take.
• Identifying your 'point of power.'
• The importance of replacing unconstructive thoughts with more supportive ones that align with your vision.
• How to replace unconstructive thoughts.
• Cleaning out the 'closet clutter.'
• How writing down your thoughts helps you manage your mind.

The Process of Managing Your Mind:

1. Your Circumstances
2. Your Thoughts
3. Your Feelings
4. Your Actions

How would you know if the knowledge you acquired is reliable? You rely on proof and empirical evidence that supports the validity of such knowledge. However, there are those who argue that intuition and ideas that have yet to be proven are as valuable and credible as the knowledge that has already been studied, accepted, and verified in the past. So, which among the two should you prioritize to acquire that will make you a better leader?

Keep Reading >>

Today, I share the two types of knowledge and define each, how different they are from each other and how society perceives them. I explain the relevance of valuing the knowledge that you have as well as the ones that you bring into the marketplace. I also share the significance of integrating this knowledge and why it's critical to value yourself in the process.

"Your best, most creative, most original humanity-advancing ideas will not survive long enough for you to prove them if you don't learn to value and trust your inherent knowledge." - Eleanor Beaton

Time management can often be one of the most challenging aspects of being a high-level entrepreneur. Female entrepreneurs are often described as having 'superpowers' in regard to how they manage their time while running their business and raising a family.
