163: How to Create Your Signature Offer
25/07/2021 Duración: 13minIn this week’s solo episode, I share how to create your signature offer. And not an offer that’s basic and like every other coach or service-provider out there, but that’s unique to you. Creating something that isn’t templated, but is based on your experience, your training, and your own transformation is one of the key ingredients for standing out from the crowd and becoming known for what you do. When you don’t have something juicy to offer like this, it becomes challenging to feel clear and confident about what you do, and it also becomes a challenge to market yourself magnetically. So, today I’ll be diving into the key steps to creating the right offer for your business and your audience. I also share more about my business mentorship program Your Wellness Brand. This is my signature method and offering, and I’m currently accepting applications. To learn more visit yourwellnessbrand.com. To submit your question, visit the show notes.

161: How to Brand Yourself Authentically
11/07/2021 Duración: 13minThis week’s topic was inspired by a conversation I had with someone recently. And that is… how to create an online presence that is a natural extension of who you really are. Where your website, your social media posts, and everything in between feels the same as meeting you in person. As I was chatting with this newbie business creator, she expressed concern that she didn’t know how to do this without being influenced by what other people are doing in the wellness space.

157: Choosing Between Being a Creative or a Wellness Entrepreneur

155: How to Choose Between Two Niche Markets
30/05/2021 Duración: 10minIf you’ve ever resisted choosing a target audience or have felt uncertain about which audience would really be right for your business, this episode is for you. Truly one of the biggest reasons entrepreneurs fail to create content that resonates and attracts their dream clients is … they don’t know their audience. Your audience is who you design not only your offers for, but also your message so that it makes them feel seen and heard. If you notice that your content isn’t getting any engagement—those IG posts have few likes or comments or your email open rates are low—that means you likely need to do some work here. In this episode, I share my top recommendations for choosing the right audience for you and position your business as their solution. To submit your question, visit the show notes.

151: How to Drop the Corporate Mindset When You Transition into Entrepreneurship
02/05/2021 Duración: 10minIn so many cases, people who step into entrepreneurship are leaving behind a traditional career. A coveted editorial position in fashion. A director title. An impressive track record. The corporate world puts a lot of value in accolades, credentials, and resumes. Which can be disorienting when you start a business. You may feel pressure to have “more experience” in order to be taken seriously. But do you really need to worry about that in the beginning? This week on the podcast I dive into this topic and give you my honest opinion, especially as it relates to this week’s question from a dear listener: How do you speak to your experience when your resume speaks of a different journey?
