Being an entrepreneur is one of the craziest, stupidest, dumbest things you're going to attempt. And once you are afflicted with the purpose of being an entrepreneur and building companies, you can't help it. You cannot suppress entrepreneurship. If you've got a drive to create things, just accept that you're stuck with it. In this episode, I want to talk about burnout and overwhelm. I'm going to run through the things I do to manage burnout and keep it at bay. At the end of the episode, I'm going to show you how to reframe your goals, and break them down using four key categories that will make it easier to understand what's required to go the distance without burning out and feeling totally overwhelmed. And I promise you, I will not mention SMART goals ONCE! What I’m Covering: To break through as an entrepreneur, you’ll need to put in the work of an elite athlete. But don't punish yourself on this crazy journey. There is a better way to succeed and achieve your goals, without the burnout and overwhelm.

So you want to change your life, but recognise you have subconscious beliefs or subconscious programming that is keeping you stuck in old patterns and behaviours. So what do you do and where do you begin? In this episode, I'm breaking down the three key things you can do to reprogramme the way you think and respond to certain situations. We also look at how we become more conscious of our behaviours and what triggers them, how to find a new response to an old situation, and how to override the memory of who you are to change your life. This is the most challenging concept to grasp in changing your life: To change your life, you really must change who you are!

So many good-hearted entrepreneurs are afraid to post content for so many reasons. But it's holding the good ones back from being of service, and well - changing the world! In this episode, I've really tried you inspire you on the content creation front, break down some myths about content creation and show you three key things to nail when making your own content. So press play to learn: Why it's so important to build value up front, and how this directly correlates with online sales, you winner! The truth about content creation, how long it takes, and why this investment is worthwhile! (This is take five, doh!) The three very specific things that make up your profile as an online business owner, and how to start leveraging them today! How to build trust, increase buyer confidence and grow your business. How to use modern media to increase your 'range' / reach in 2024. Remember: Your ‘profile’ is your authority in the market place. The bigger (or more relevant) your profile is, the more you can help people and the more you can sell.

This week, I've got a big bold claim. By the end of the episode, I'm going to have shown you how to find the one big subconscious block that is holding you back from everything you want in your life and business. And I'm telling you now it is hiding in plain sight. I'm going to show you how to spot it, and then we're going to work through how you actually resolve it. What I'm covering in this episode: The exercises I'm sharing with you are designed to help you find that sneaky little subconscious story you're so used to telling yourself, that you're not even registering it anymore. And when you see it, you're gonna go, I knew that, it was so obvious! I'd love to hear what you've discovered, drop me an email and let me know! Resources: websiteInstagramFacebook

When I think about thought leadership, what comes to my mind is this: a thought leader is someone worth following. And why is that someone worth following? Because they are full of deep insights, wisdom, experience, life lived and most of all, they have practiced sharing their message consistently over a long period of time. So practice is the word you want. You're not going to get good in your head, you get good by putting stuff out in the world, seeing how it lands, getting feedback, and building your message one person at a time. In today's episode, I want to share with you what you can do with your thought leadership, and talk you through six key things that you can consider when developing yours. Here’s what I cover: Thought leadership is what it takes to build a scalable six-figure online business making a living doing what you love, from a place of passion and purpose when you're a good hearted entrepreneur. So if you’re ready to do some challenging thinking and develop your unique thought leadership, join me on this episode, it’s a juicy one!

This weekend, I attended the Hay House Writer's Workshop about writing and publishing a book and took enough notes to write a book! It was phenomenal - the energy, the people, the content, the speakers. I will tell you up front: I highly recommend this event to any good-hearted person who dreams of writing and publishing their own book. But - the event didn't just teach you how to finish that book and get it out there in the world. It covered so much more including: There was such a beautiful energy at the event; an energy of 'being of service'. There was also a very strong message about writing with joy. You put a lot of 'life force' and energy into a book so don't make it a slog - make it joyous. Anyway, I don't want to give it all away. Press play. I think you'll get a lot from today's episode about business, marketing and purpose, as well about about writing your book and getting published.

How do you develop a mindset for success that you want in your online business? And how do you practice and maintain it? I want to share with you three key ideas that have transformed the results that I see in my life. Let me be honest with you right away - they all came from pain. Because without the pain of rock bottom, I wouldn't have learned what I'm about to share with you today, and I wouldn't have gotten the results that I got in the years that followed. I’m also going to give you some journaling prompts to help you answer deep and important questions about your desires, thoughts and actions, so you can upgrade your mindset and start rocking those online sales!

If you're feeling overwhelmed in your business and life, it's very likely to be both of them together. Overwhelm comes in different shapes. You feel like you’re running out of money, there’s never enough time for what you have to do, and there’s pressure on you to know all the answers. If that's how you feel, know that it is so normal for entrepreneurs. But I can't allow you to continue down that path. We can change it, and in this episode, I’ll talk you through a three-step process to deal with overwhelm. What You’ll Learn: I’ll leave you to work through these steps with a quote by my mum who said, “Lisa, you can be anything, you can do anything, you can do it all, but you can't do it all today.” So calm down, tune in and pick one or two things that resonate with you that you can do today.

When you do a launch as a coach or a trainer, you win your customers and that feels great. Then six months go by, you're so busy delivering for the customers that you forget to go out selling. And now you're back to square one - there's no cash coming in and you're in big trouble. The remedy for that is building a strategic six-figure business that generates a pipeline of leads for your business. If you want to know how to do that, in this episode I'm going to give you four key pointers for building a strategic six-figure business packed with leads. Here’s what I cover: Once you nail these four levels, you’ll never run out of leads or pipeline again. That is how building a strategic six-figure business works. And If you want to learn a little bit more, I've written 30 pages explaining exactly how to do this.

How do I make money in my business today? That's the question I get asked a lot. If you’re a coach or a course creator and you're doing it all, from planning the launch, delivering on it, to dealing with taxes - it’s a lot, I understand. And so entrepreneurs sneakily love to say - I'm too busy to sell. Now, let’s get this straight: to be an entrepreneur is to sell stuff. It is so stressful to be delivering all the time only to watch the money run out and all of a sudden find yourself trying to make something up and go out to the market again. This episode is going to tackle what happens if you're in that situation. I’ll share three things you can do to make more money in your business right now and start getting cash in immediately. Here’s what I cover: And here’s my invitation for you: I'm inviting you to work through the three ideas I share in this episode this week, and then next week I'll come back diving deeper into another question - how do I build a strategic six-figure business?

How odd is this concept: 75% of your job as an entrepreneur, trying to build a multiple six figure thing, is sales and marketing. I mean: If you’re wondering what you should be doing today, it’s this: - Making offers and making them better - Posting content and building audience and pipeline - Adding value to future customers and making sales Once those jobs are ticked, you can raise your invoices, book your calls, reply to the person quoting you insurance. These jobs are secondary. Your main job is to market and to sell. Again… Your main job as an online coach / provider is to market and sell. How does that sit with you? Does it feel weird? I bet it does. Good people who feel driven by purpose ALSO have a feeling deep down that selling is a bit odd. We want to share our gifts and knowledge, and we want to help...for free. You can of course build a model like that, where you give away your gifts for free. But you’d have to make your money elsewhere. A lottery win. Marrying into money. A job. Another business that funds this one. Or…you can build a model where you get to add a lot of value, and make a lot of sales. That’s what I’m talking about in today’s video but first, a little more context… I know you might feel like you’re wasting your time editing a video that only 100 people see. You wish you were better on camera / at editing / with lighting. You wish you could afford to outsource it. You wish more people would see it. You might feel frustrated, like ‘Argh, that’ll do’, finalising the sales page for your next offer, knowing you’re anxious about selling. You wish someone could just send you the clients. You wish selling was easier. But this is business: marketing, selling; learning to move people to action. The very nature of being an entrepreneur means learning how to provide value in exchange for money. And like anything worth doing, it is truly a skill that requires mastery. It takes time and hours in. Again… Marketing and selling are skills that require mastery. And the more time and effort you put in, the better you will get. You WILL be better at positioning value if you craft 20 offers in a year instead of three. You WILL be better at marketing if you post once a day, rather than twice a week. You WILL figure it all out faster if you lean in and recognise that this is a skill that requires practice, time in and attempts. The work will mould you. That being said, there is something you can take advantage of to help you on this journey. All of us have an ‘edge’ – a skill that we’ve developed without even knowing it; a skill that has become so baked into our personalities that it’s natural and normal to us now. You will even use it today. For me, growing up as a military kid and moving home / country every two years, then going off to boarding school had its downsides, but it also gave me something I will value and leverage forever. I am good with people. I am very quick at reading people. I know people. Sometimes I feel like I can read minds. I know how people are feeling, what they’re not telling me, where I need to push, and where I need to encourage more gently. I learnt this from having to fit in and make friends over and over and over again. I learnt this as a child, in a natural way, without books and psychology and hacks. It’s became part of who I am, and then I built on it with books, psychology, training, and hours in coaching and helping. Using this little bit of magic, I can find the crux of an offer, I can build honest relationships quickly, I can position the value people want. I can sell. In the coming weeks, I want you to reflect on this concept and ask: What is my little bit of magic? What skill or ability have I developed that I can lean on and use in my business, to help me add value, to make deals, to sell? We all have something. You have something, I promise you. So what is it? And how can you use it more? Start looking. Meanwhile, this might help as a reminder of what’s...

“People set these crazy plans and approaches and targets they can never meet because: over-egging your plan and setting crazy targets is a form of sabotage - it gives you the ultimate out.” New video now live - Getting it finished: 5 softer approaches for getting your important work done. The secret to success is 49% action and 99% ‘YOU’ - shh, that adds up scientifically - and the capacity you have to do three things: Even when you create the time and resolve to take action and do the important work, it’s still your mindset that will allow it or block it. What if someone judges how I look on camera? What if it isn’t good enough and no-one buys it? What if it only gets five likes and then everyone thinks I’m silly for posting? There are two types of work us lot need to do. The first type of work is output related. Show me your chapter outline. Give me a one pager on your new programme idea. Let’s see your first video cut. That’s physical output - stuff other people can see, buy, use and share. That makes sense right? The second type of work is all internal. It’s feeling vulnerable about posting a video, recognising that story started as a child for you, and supporting yourself to show up in a way that feels safe to you over time. It’s a process, it’s not an outcome. It’s knowing you have a habit of giving away all of your money because you think that’s what it takes to receive love, and working hard to spot it when you do it, sit in the discomfort of deciding to keep your money and doing the work to change your story about your own worthiness. It’s a process, it’s not an outcome. It’s recognising you tend to say yes to everyone else and your dreams have ended up one week down the list, one year down the list, one decade down the list and now you’re working through the guilt you feel just for taking some time to work on yourself. It’s a process, it’s not an outcome. THAT’S THE WORK ISN’T IT? When people say to me things like “Lisa, I’m struggling to post because I feel like an imposter”, there is often a full stop there. But the sentence can’t stop there. There must be an exploration of where this comes from, what benefits it’s giving you now, and how you plan to work through this. All the while, there is mounting pressure to post, to create, to finish and so you heap tonnes of guilt on top of the fact you’re struggling to get things done. I know, because I feel it too. That second example above - the money / love one - that [has been] me [in the past]! So we need something else, don’t we? It’s taken me a long time to learn what it really takes to change your life and get projects over the line. Sometimes it is MASSIVE, high energy, physical action, it’s true. Sometimes, you do just wake up, shut down a business, move to Manchester and finish the book ;-) And sometimes it’s SLOW, gentle, bumpy action that includes reading books about trauma, spotting patterns over years of cycles, going to therapy to work things out, and creating safe places to create. In this video, I’d like to look at this slower, gentler energy and give you five different strategies you can explore for making progress on your real dreams. Safely. Creatively. For the longterm outcome not the short term fix. Spoiler alert: I’m not letting you off the hook today. I’m saying that there are two types of work - the output and the mindset. This video says ‘here’s how to finish the output, by focusing on the mindset work’. Dive in. You’re ready for more. Lisa

How to change your life in 2023 using subconscious reprogramming, value shifts and environmental changes. If you want to truly change your life in 2023, you cannot JUST 'speak it into existence' or 'write it down and let it go'. That requires a level of belief that most people don't yet have. But fear not! You can build it! There are four key things you need to do to change your life, including changing the way you speak to yourself and the environment you're in. In this final episode in this three part mini series on how to change your life in 2023, I'm going to show you HOW to build that belief in yourself, how your environment can trigger change, and how to think about vision vs. goals to make your dream life your new reality. Press play for more.

#purpose #uncoveryourpurpose #lifepurpose In this episode, I’m going to show you how to uncover your purpose, link it to your vision in life and do the one true action that will help you live a life of purpose. No more hiding. No more delay. Each and every single one of us has a unique purpose on this planet. FACTS. In basic terms, it’s to become the fullest expression of yourself. To show yourself. To be of value. To use yourself up. Most of us just aren’t doing this with our life purpose. We’re hiding. Shrinking back. Ignoring ‘the call’ and that’s a problem. Your unique purpose in life sits deep in your heart and your soul. It doesn’t show itself under pressure and strain. Like Palmer J. Parker said in Let Your Life Speak - your purpose is like a tiger in the jungle. Wild, but shy. To find it, you can't go storming into the tress. You have to sit quietly under the base of a tree and wait for it to show. So here are the two things you have to accept about finding your purpose in life: #1 You can’t charge towards your purpose. It comes from within. You listen to it. You trust it. You take action in faith, and in doing do, you charge towards your vision! Your purpose begins as a whisper and the more you listen, the louder it speaks. #2 The second thing you have to accept about purpose is that you were given gifts to help you live out your purpose. The likelihood is, you think those gifts are normal, like everyone has them. And so you use them, you don’t leverage them. And if you’re not using them, you’re wasting them. In this video, I'm going to share with you three simple but powerful questions to help you uncover your purpose, strengthen your connection to that purpose and take bold steps to live a life of deeper purpose.

I'm a business coach, yup. BUT: Without a crazy, bold belief in myself, and without installing that belief in my clients, we'd be nowhere. NOWHERE. In this episode, I'm attempting to summarise the three biggest things I've learnt about belief, self-belief, and how you get the results you want through subconscious reprogramming. I want to show you how subconscious beliefs are formed. Why we have them. And give you three steps for reprogramming them for good. Honestly? It's not as big a deal as it sounds. 80% of the battle is being willing to let go of the comfort of who you were to embrace who you know you can be. And the other 20% is consistency around three simple things, which I'm sharing with you in the video. Dig in, this one is worth it... #changeyourlife #subconsciousmind #subconsciousreprogramming

Yesterday, I recorded the start of a new podcast ten times. I am not exaggerating or rounding up for smartness. I even paused after six attempts, had a tea break and tried again. I was committed to producing a podcast episode. The theme I'd selected was based on a training I'd delivered a week earlier for my business community: How to build a six figure online marketing funnel. The training was fire! Fast paced. Challenging. A direct call to arms to be useful, to work hard, to focus on client results at every step of the funnel. But it just didn't translate to a podcast for a wider audience. Something that felt really poignant and topical for one audience became cliche and general for another. Without considering why that was the case, I called my dad and said "Dad, I'm not working today - do you want to go and surprise mum at work?". He was a yes. I told him I'd be leaving in an hour. I just had to walk the dogs and send some client emails first. Deciding to walk away from the episode gave me something. Freedom? Space? It let me off the hook! It meant I didn't have to produce something practical or functional. I didn't have to 'tick the box' of marketing that day. It just wasn't happening. I'd tried. Somewhat ironically, then, I found myself reaching for my iPhone, whilst looping the field, to record the introduction of the podcast I wasn't making. It felt fun, light, in flow. I recorded myself calling back the dogs. I recorded myself clipping them in. And that's when I realised what was bothering me. Content for the sake of content demotivates me. I can't produce something for the sake of it. I don't like to and I don't want to. And I don't have to. When I think of what inspires me, what really gets me flowing, it's the opportunity to create something new and different that will make people smile and ask 'how did she do that?'. I don't want to be a follower, of a pattern or a style or a formula. I want to be a leader, a creator, an original. With that idea in mind, I recorded my thoughts (and the rest of my day) on my iPhone, sharing the concept of 'being useful'. Today's podcast episode is the result of that work. We explore the importance of being truly useful in a world filled with more and more content. We look at the catalytic effect of desire in making the world a better place for the people you can help. And I challenge you to produce something meaningful for your business today, instead of ticking yet another item off the list. I hope you enjoy.
