EP64 | Step up - it's time to lead
It's not business as usual right now. We can't act as if nothing has happened, nor is it time to be afraid. Today I start a series called Time To Lead - a call to not shrink back in fear, but to step up. #timetolead

EP63 | A rant about round pegs and square holes
It's never been a better time to have an online business (as long as you have toilet paper supplies!) - working from home definitely has it's advantages. But one of the things that really ticks me off about the online business is people feeling a failure because their online guru's system didn't work for them.
I see people spending thousands and thousands of dollars on courses and membership sites, only to end up frustrated, unsupported and broke... their dreams ravaged and their confidence sitting in the ER waiting room. This episode is my rant about that.

EP62 | Not making enough money in your business? Listen to this.
Virus fears. Economic wobbles. There's enough stress just watching the news, let alone worrying about your business. If you are not making the income you need in your business, then the stress can be overwhelming.
One of my brave Lead Your World Academy students asked this very question of me this week - "I'm not making money in my new business yet - what should I do?" But instead of giving her the answer directly, I asked her a series of questions, which I’m going to ask of you right now in this podcast.

EP61 | Think before you crush it (sorry Gary V)
The phrase 'crushing it' has become part of the entrepreneurs lexicon. It's sounds great when Gary V says it, but should you?
So many of the hashtags we share and the words we use are just everyone following everyone else - and incredibly masculine. But the answer isn’t to adopt powder-pink as your brand colours or use the hashtag #bossbabe either.
The businesses that are going to survive any kind of big or small economic shake up are the ones who aren’t me-too businesses, but are leading by doing things differently. Business isn't a war, a competition or a hunt.
This episode challenges us to think and behave differently - as women and men, and not just blindly follow the rules of patriarchy.

EP59 | Fear of Visibility (and is it really that scary?)
One of the biggest fears that business owners confess is 'fear of visibility'. Before social media being 'visible' was something the marketing and advertising companies did, but with the rise of the solo-preneur and a myriad of ways to go live, the pressure is definitely on to be visible. So what if you are not naturally inclined to put your face out there? What if you are an introvert? And what if that fear brings up memories of being laughed at in school? This episode discusses how to deal with this common fear.

EP58b | [Unedited] Get It Done Blueprint Blooper
OMG BLOOPER MOMENT... I was really busy this week. Plus we had the big distraction of the Coronavirus and the economic impact. It feels like we need to switch 2020 off for 30 seconds and turn it back on again, hey?
Anyhow, my big blooper was to accidentally upload the raw unedited file for episode 58, instead of the lovely, finished version. I didn't notice until a colleague of mine messaged me!
However... she found it FASCINATING! As it showed her the BEHIND THE SCENES of my podcast recording process! Eeek.
My first response was 'oops, did I swear at all?'.
So after hurrying to replace the file, we decided to give you BOTH versions of Episode 58 - so you can hear the behind the scenes! This version is the uncut, unedited version.
You'll notice that recording a podcast is a process!
And to be the best we need practice!
Enjoy both versions!
EP58a | Get it done - a blueprint
March and April are 'productivity months' in my Lead Your World Academy - so this episode is to introduce my 3 step process for not just increased time/self management, but a productivity 'cure'. You'll discover the CPR of productivity - the ultimate prescription for beating overwhelm, getting organised and finding focus to support you whilst you grow your business.
