#24 Put Yourself in front of the camera for your children's sake.

Listen. Learn. Love thyself. Never fear your future again.

This show is dedicated, and was created for all the women out there who hide from the video camera when it comes to personal home videos. This show was originally going to be "5 Tips to Boost Your On-camera Confidence" for small business owners. I was going to share these tips with my female entrepreneurs to help them get in front of the camera. We as business owners need to promote our brand in the oh so important video marketing game. You know it's vital. But, as I began writing, my thoughts began to shift to video for personal use. I thought about my grandmothers, and how I wish I could witness them on video just one time....I wish I could hear their voices and see their mannerisms. I would cherish that so much. If I only had them on video... I also thought about others in my family who refuse to be in pictures. Then I thought to myself, they are...robbing others of their memory... So this episode I am going to plead with those of you out there who are always behind the camera & for the women that just won't get in front of the camera. I beg you to be in front of camera for the benefit of your loved ones. It's no longer about you. Put yourself on video for your children. Let's listen to this one for our kid's sake...

Why are personal videos so important: They are Unwitting tools capable of linking past and future. They are a record of your families life. They boost self esteem. They keep the memories alive in your children mind of all the good times. They also can get YOU through the bad times. They are so much fun to make They are another creative outlet for your children. So please get over yourself, and in front of the camera! It's a little bit of tough love, but I think you will thank me for it for the rest of your life.

Listen. Learn. Love thyself. Never fear your future again.

If you could go back in time to the 18 year old you, knowing what you know now, what advice would you give your young self? Listen. Learn. Love thyself. Never fear your future again. I have three Interns Carly, Kelsey, Jessica who are doing a wonderful job for me. When I first started out, I interned everywhere. The internships that served me the best were the ones that I received hands on experience. So, my interns have their hand in everything my company puts out from my YouTube page, to social media, to my blogs, newsletters etc. I always try to give them assignments that can help better themselves in business, or creation and or I try to inspire them in some way to be their best self.

Thus, this intern experiment...I had my young women take this podcast to the streets of downtown Red Bank NJ and have them ask women passerbys one question that I hope would be inspiring and helpful to them. That question was: If you could go back in time to when you where 18 what is the best piece of advice that you would give yourself knowing what you know today." Again, this was going to be just an exercise for them, but they provided value to you my listener, worked really hard and did such a good job that I wanted to air it. I also was so pleased with the interviews who so gracious to answer these questions thoughtfully... It was just such a good experience of all these women working together and trying to help each other out. Sisterhood at it's finest hour. I think today we will all benefit from this little experiment in life.

So please enjoy listening to the work of Carly, Jessica and Kelsey, kicking butt and taking names down on the streets of Red Bank, NJ....

What advice would you give yourself? They talked about:

Experiencing freedom first. Not letting anyone stop you from living your dream. Respecting your parents. If you haven't already, check out this podcast episode where we take the show to the streets of Red Bank, NJ and ask experienced women advice on how to live life to the fullest!

I've had my eye on Aaron Steed of Meathead Movers and his mission way before I started this podcast five months ago. Aaron started his business with his brother in high school and never looked back. This interview is about perseverance, loyalty, steadfast entrepreneurship and a guy with a big heart that not only cares deeply about his employees, but about people. What really attracted me to him and his company was his dedication to assist victims of domestic violence. I'm honored to bring to you Aaron Steed, the owner of Meathead Movers, a moving company in California. When I got off the call with him, I said to myself, "Not only do I want to use his company, but I want to be his friend, like go to the beach and have a beer with him and his wife." Listen in and you will see what I mean.

After pursing that for a while she started to take an interest in casting and started helping out friends on low budget jobs and working for free until she got her first paying casting job as an associate for a development job at with a company called Relativity. From there she never stopped working.

When asking her to be on the show, I knew I was taking the risk of being too inside and was afraid that this podcast would gear more towards my TV/Film listeners... But I must tell you, the words from Stephanie about never giving up, believing in yourself and owning it...ring true for all of us as women. I was so pleasantly surprise on how inspiring Stephanie was to me.... She has a history of working her ass off to get what she wants and how she wants it AND she is only skyrocketing higher and higher in her career today. And did I mention that she is doing all this with a 2 year old a boy and another one on the way....
