Do you ever feel unsafe in your business? 

Maybe we you launch a new website, or share something vulnerable on your stories. Your heart starts pounding and your palms get sweaty and you think "this is a terrible idea and I'm going to unpublish or delete this right now!"

Or maybe you don't feel safe when you step away from your business and take time to just rest or play or be present with your family. You fear that your business will fail unless you're constantly working, or you worry what will come up in you when you actually take the time to slow down. 

Or maybe you don't feel safe in the idea of success. Like allowing yourself to actually enjoy what you've created might but it at risk in some way. Like if you allow yourself to really feel proud and experience pleasure, it will make it so much harder if you ever lose it. 

When we feel safe in our business, we show up as the most authentic, present, powerful version of ourselves. We connect more deeply with our clients. We make more impact in our community. 

In today's episode registered counsellor (and my best friend) Alisha Mckay is sharing some practical advice on how we can create safety for ourselves in an entrepreneurial journey full of risk taking.

As female small business owners it can be tempting to isolate ourselves.

It often happens completely unintentionally as well. We are so focused on running our business and being present with our families that we forget to take time to connect with other female business owners.

And sometimes we're even hesitant to spend time connecting with and building our own business community because we think it will just add one more thing to our plate.

But what if spending time building community could grow your business faster and more effectively?

What if you're missing out on THE secret ingredient to growing  a healthy, sustainable, life-giving business that is deeply aligned with your core values and vision for your life.

What if community is the answer?

Today I'm interviewing Shannon Lorenz, a community and business builder, the founder of The Bespoke Market, and CEO of Squamish Local Scoop. 

A few months ago I started my 3rd round of FB ads with an ads manager.

I knew it was time to scale my business and this was ONE way to do it. 

But what I didn't anticipate was ALL the thoughts and feelings that would come up along the way. I should have - I coach people about this all the time. But, surprise! I'm still a human!

Anytime we step out to try something new in our business, it brings up our ish. If you have limiting beliefs, they'll surface. If you have self doubt - get ready to stare it right in the face. If you have fear around money, um hello. Ya that's going to come up too. 

In today's episode I share the behind the scenes, real life mess of being an entrepreneur who is STILL figuring it out. 

If you're looking for a success story - this is not it. If you're looking for a highlight reel of how amazing my life and business is, don't listen. 

If you want the REAL DEAL messy middle of business - this is it. 

If you're a female business owner and a mom, I'm guessing you have a lot of tasks to keep track of every day.

And if you're like most people, you're using some version of a running To Do list to try to keep track of everything.

But to do lists are just the first step in the process. 

A to do list isn't the solution to the problem.

A to do list is just a list of un-made decisions.

If you want to double your productivity, get more done in less time and make MORE time for fun, play and adventure, it's time to start scheduling.

Scheduling IS the solution to feeling busy and overwhelmed.

That's why it's sexy. Because it gives you your time back.

More time to rest. To be bored. To create. To drink wine. To have sex. To have energy to have sex.

I know, it's sounding pretty good, right?

So how do you go from a To Do list, to a schedule? Listen to today's episode to find out.

As small business owners and mama's, we have a lot of people depending on us. And there are a lot of demands on our time.

And it can feel like the best (and only) way to keep us is to stay busy all the time. To respond to all the requests as they come in and live in reaction to our lives.

But when we live in reaction mode and we're saying yes to everyone who is asking (kids, hubby, customers, followers, etc.) it leads to hustle and burn out. It allows us to serve well NOW, but not necessarily in the long haul.

In today's episode I'm interviewing the CEO of Moss Postpartum House, Paige Barlow. Paige has created a multiple 6 figure business, during the pandemic, in a sustainable way. Have a listen to see how Paige prioritizing self care in her business and personal life, and the impact that has had on the growth of her business.

It's handmade market season! I just went to my first local market a few weeks ago and it was amazing - as the shopper. But I know from coaching many market vendors and even a few organizers, that it can be a VERY stressful season. Exciting, fun and stressful. 

If you own a product based business and you struggle with the market hustle, this episode is for you. I released it early as a bonus episode because the time is NOW and I wanted to get these resources in your hands when you need them most. 

Here's the deal. There are so many things you can't control as a market vendor. The cost of the table, the number of shoppers who will show up, how much they will spend. 

But there ARE a few things you can control that will make all the difference in how successful you are at the market. 

Tune in now to learn more. 

And for all my service-based business owners, this 10 min bonus episode might have something for you too! Don't miss out.

Have you ever sent a DM to someone you really want to work with and heard nothing back?!

It's the worst isn't it? Working up the courage to put yourself out there, planning the perfect pitch and then - crickets!

In today's episode I want to teach you a simple tool called "Fill in the Blank". It's a tool I use every time I don't hear back from someone I'm trying to connect with (both in my business AND in my personal life)

This tool helps us move out of the "worst case scenario" that our human brain always wants to paint, and into a space of curiosity and even hope!
