Welcome to the Courageous Entrepreneur Show. This is the show that shares information and inspiration to help you break free from self-doubt, limiting beliefs, and disempowering patterns and break through to create the thriving, successful business you dream of and deserve. The show features interviews with entrepreneurs who’ve overcome amazing challenges to create success on their terms and experts who share insight and practical information to help you move forward with courage, confidence, and clarity so you – the introverted, mission-driven entrepreneur -- consistently reach your biggest goals. If you like what you hear I hope you’ll share the show with others. Be sure to visit winnie Anderson.com/nicole to get the show notes for this episode As an Introvert it’s easy to feel as though you don’t quite fit in. The world seems full of extroverts who love to tell us what’s wrong with us. I once had a client who had paid about 10,000$ to spend the day with a guru. Rather than understand what she was struggling with that was contributing to her lack of progress and creating a game plan that would work for her, he told her she didn’t have a big enough why and that’s the reason she hadn’t achieved her goals. What we can find hard to deal with is accepting ourselves as we are, and creating a plan that works with and supports our core personality. With me on this episode is Nicole Isler. Nicole is Chief Empowerment Officer and the founder of Guts, Grit, & Fire Community for sensitive visionaries. She’s a spiritual teacher, coach, light leader, and big-time dreamer. She helps other dreamers in various industry segments bring their dreams into the world. Her clients are struggling to deal with things like corporate responsibilities, toxic relationships, messy energy and messy emotions. She helps them close the gap from where they are to living their freedom and feeling fulfilled. Remember my guests and I aren’t giving you specific advice. The information we’re sharing is for educational and entertainment purposes only. If you need help be sure to seek out a trained professional whether you need help in the financial, tax, business building, or physical or mental healthcare provider. If you feel triggered by anything in this episode please get help right away. Listen in as Nicole and I discuss: The difference between being sensitive and being easily offended And the difference between being emotional and being dramatic Why embracing and owning your feelings is important to take back your power Where beliefs come from and how to manage them How to deal with negative experiences from the past that may have a hold over you Our mission as spiritual beings Why it’s not rejection when someone says no to working with you Repurposing your life events And The role of ego in listening to our intuition As always, listen all the way to the end where I’ll share your cocktail exercise and action step for this episode.

We’re learning more and more about the impact of what we eat on gut health and the impact of gut health on our overall wellness. In this episode, the Ingredient Guru, Mira Deesy, helps us get educated about the complex subject that is the food we eat. Mira is a nutrition professional, author, and a popular public speaker. She knows it’s not just what you eat but what’s IN what you eat that’s important. She’s author of The Pantry Principle: How to read the label and understand what’s really in your food.

This is the show that shares information and inspiration to help you break free from self-doubt, limiting beliefs, and disempowering patterns and break through to create the thriving, successful business you dream of and deserve. The show features interviews with entrepreneurs who’ve overcome amazing challenges to create success on their terms and experts who share insight and practical information to help you move forward with courage, confidence, and clarity so you consistently reach your biggest goals.

It's my way of generating gas money for my long trips back home to South Jersey. Show Notes If you’re an entrepreneur, freelancer, solo professional who is also a former employee, the chances are very good that you’ve experienced some form of trauma at your past job. Whether you’ve worked for abusive bosses or you’ve worked with difficult or even bullying peers, the chances are very good that you’ve experienced some type of emotional trauma at work and there’s also a good chance that trauma scarred you in some way. In this episode,Tracey Maxfield recounts her experience with severe workplace bullying and how she’s using her experience to help children around the world. Tracey is a nurse with over 37 years’ experience. She is certified in gerontology and dementia care and is a regular guest on well-known author and radio host Peter Rosenberger’s show Hope For the Caregiver on WLAC and iHeart Radio in Nashville, Tennessee. Tracey experienced her first episode of clinical depression in her twenties and lived with chronic depression ever since. However, nothing prepared her for the acute depressive episode she experienced in 2015. After enduring years of intense work place stress, harassment and bullying, she plummeted into an abyss of darkness, hopelessness and despair the likes of which she had never experienced before. Encouraged by a psychologist, Tracey started a blog, Escaping the Rabbit Hole - my life with depression, to better help her friends understand her depression. Over time, she began to heal and found that out of the darkness and despair, there is hope, there is life after depression. Since the release of the book (affiliate link) that grew out of her blog, Tracey has become a staunch advocate for mental illness and mental health awareness and bullying. She has met with children, teenagers and young adults to talk about bullying and mental illness and was one of the breakout presenters at the TEACH 2019 Conference in Jacksonville, Florida. Her website was recently awarded the silver medal for Best Author Website 2019 at the eLit Awards and her book is a top 10 finalist in the Non-Fiction category at the Author Academy Awards. Tracey has appeared in over 60 podcasts in the USA, Canada, New Zealand and UK, live radio shows and on ABC, NBC and FOX News. Her philosophy is to Engage children and teenagers, to Educate them about mental illness and bullying and to Empower them to develop confidence and skills to continue to move ahead in their own life journey. Born in Wales, U.K. Tracey moved to Canada in 1987. Escaping the Rabbit Hole my journey through depression is her first book and has received international rave reviews.

If you need help be sure to find and hire a trained professional who can advise you directly about your specific situation. Show Notes We start a business for lots of reasons including the opportunity to make a big impact and the opportunity to earn an unlimited income.

And it doesn’t matter where you are in the business life cycle. Each new level of business success brings up the issue of “am I good enough” and “do I really deserve to make this kind of money”. In this episode Tai Goodwin talks about the struggle we have with pricing and how we’ve got to get past it to build momentum and truly build the sustainable, profitable business we dream of and deserve. Tai is the CEO of Profit Momentum and founder of Profit Academy.

Show Notes One of the many reasons we start our businesses is to get the freedom we want to build a life and a lifestyle that brings us joy. Yet, building that foundation can be a challenge and we often come face to face with our own emotional crap. In this episode, Alison Donaghey talks about her journey and the type of thinking that can hold female entrepreneurs back. A single mom at 20, Alison eventually went from collecting welfare to running a thriving house painting business. It took the 2008 recession for Alison to recognize that she had some holes to fill in her business and business-building knowledge. The recession led her to recognize how critical thinking is key to every situation and she realized she had something other than painting to offer people and business owners. She recognized her ability to look at a situation differently and anticipate potential outcomes was the seed that became Domino Thinking. Allison is the author of the international best-selling book, Think opposite – using the domino effect to change your business and change the world”. Today, Alison speaks to entrepreneurs, small business owners and coaches about the power of critical thinking. She’s also the host of Domino Thinking. The show is designed to get listeners to think about a different perspective, to suspend their beliefs, and consider the opposite view point.

SHOW NOTES If you’re a solo professional, freelancer, author, expert or even someone who runs a small firm, today’s topic may not be the most sexy thing to hear but it’s certainly among the most important topics you’ll hear. You may have heard me talk about a friend of mine who ran a small firm that used contractors to do the work. There were periods of time in a year and during planning times when it was just her and her partner. When things went sour in their relationship he somehow got her connected to a lawsuit. Just defending herself and getting herself removed from the situation cleaned out her savings account. Then terror attacks of September 11th happened and business took a nose dive. Then the crash of 2008 happened. She was devastated.

Rose Andreesen is a professional tour guide in New Orleans, specializing in ghost, vampire, and mystery-themed walking tours of the historic French Quarter through HauntedHistoryTours.com.

This gives a unique, immersive perspective to the tales she weaves for spellbound tourists from around the world. It’s easy to imagine she’s been telling these stories for centuries. Rose moved to New Orleans one year after Hurricane Katrina hit the area and only plans to leave “when her bloated corpse floats out.” She lives in a haunted house with her husband, a pair of black and orange Halloween cats, and a decidedly non-goth corgi mix.

Welcome to the Courageous Entrepreneur Show. This is the show that shares information and inspiration to help you stand out when you hate standing out, sell your services even though you hate selling, and create the thriving, successful business you dream of and deserve.

When you do you’ll get episodes delivered right to your inbox along with information, tips, and resources to help you – the introverted, mission-driven entrepreneur -- consistently move forward to reach your biggest goals. SHOW NOTES As Introverts one of the things we have to check in with ourselves about is whether the issue we’re wrestling with or that seems to be keeping us from taking action is truly part of being an introvert or is it connected to a deeper issue we wrestle with. And often, if you find yourself resisting something, avoiding taking action, there’s probably a fear that’s holding you back. I can tell you from experience that until you fully face that fear it’s unlikely you’ll be able to fully move forward with the courage, confidence, and clarity you need. That’s the conclusion I came to and I thought you probably needed to as well. That’s why I wanted to have today’s guest on the show. To say Suzie Gruber is a personal development coach is a simplification of her skills I think but that’s technically her title. She uses her skills and training to help professionals uncover any survival strategies that we carry from childhood that we may still be unknowingly using today. She’ll support you in developing the ability to detach from the emotions connected to an issue, and support you to examine it as you develop new strategies to deal with it. Her clients go on to be more productive, achieve their business and professional goals, and do it all with a greater sense of aliveness and ease so their work and their life is more satisfying. Keep in mind that we’re not giving you medical advice. Suzie is not a licensed therapist or a doctor of any sort and neither am I. This episode like all of the episodes of The Courageous Entrepreneur Show is designed to inform, educate, and entertain you. If this brings up any issues or feelings for you please consider reaching out to a professional for diagnosis, care, and treatment. Listening to this show is not a replacement for the care of a trained and licensed professional. That said, listen in as Suzie explains: And how we can navigate the 8 strategic priorities we need to manage as entrepreneurs. As always, listen all the way to the end where I’ll share your cocktail exercise and action step for this episode.

The Courage to Lead

2/2/2019
Welcome to the Courageous Entrepreneur Show. This is the show that shares information and inspiration to help you stand out when you hate standing out, sell your services even though you hate selling, and create the thriving, successful business you dream of and deserve. The show features interviews with entrepreneurs who’ve overcome amazing challenges to create success on their terms and experts who share insight and practical information to help you move forward with courage, confidence, and clarity.

When you do you’ll get episodes delivered right to your inbox along with information, tips, and resources to help you – the introverted, mission-driven entrepreneur -- consistently move forward to reach your biggest goals. SHOW NOTES If you’re on your second or third career act and are growing your own business, one of the big things you may be wrestling with is fearlessly communicating your Point of View and trusting that by doing so you’ll attract the right clients, the right opportunities, and the right referral partners. We’ve spent decades of our lives trying to fit in – in classrooms as children and young people; in offices, companies, and organizations where we worked and where our economic lives were technically in the hands of our employers; and in our family of origin and social circles. Then here we are out on our own and what’s needed is often the opposite – we need to stand out as unique. While in corporate life we may have lead departments, divisions, and whole businesses, we took action with a certain amount of comfort in knowing that we could successfully address whatever came up and we understood the parameters within which we could lead. Even if others inside the organization considered us fearless for those times when we stood up for a conviction. It’s not quite the same as standing up for what we believe, putting our point of view out there and putting ourselves on the line the way that’s necessary when you’re self-employed and you’re the face of your brand. This issue of leading, being seen as a leader, and standing out can be downright scary for some of us. It’s a very big part of why I named this show The Courageous Entrepreneur. I wanted to recognize the challenges, be inspired by and celebrate those who are courageous, and learn from experts who can help us do that. And that sums up why I wanted today’s guest on the show. Nukhet Hendricks is a Women’s Leadership Coach and Consultant as well as the executive director of a nonprofit headquartered in North Dakota. She grew the nonprofit animal shelter from a low 6-figure to a solid 7-figure budget. Nukhet continues to grow the organization while mentoring the emerging women leaders whom she has the privilege to guide. She holds a Master of Science degree in Public and Human Service Administration and has been a nonprofit executive for over 28 years in various leadership roles. Nukhet is originally from Turkey and has called the USA home since 1987 when she became a naturalized citizen. A fiercely independent spiritual rebel and ocean lover with an unquenchable gypsy soul, Nukhet is always moving towards new frontiers! A word of caution about this episode if you’re listening to it on speakers where others can here. There are a couple of instances of profanity in this episode. Particularly around our fears of being called the word that’s another name for a female dog. So be sure to either where a headset when you listen or keep the volume low so you don’t expose other ears to language you might not want them to hear or they may not want to hear. It doesn’t come up a lot but...

Those of us in service professions like coaching, consulting, healing, or other professional problem solvers start our businesses because we: But then we realize we have to figure out how to get clients so we can do that thing we love and do so well. And it’s in that moment that we often come face to face with emotional baggage we never knew we had or baggage we thought we had tucked away in that closet in our mind. But until we deal with this issue and recognize selling is just helping people make a choice that’s best for them, we’re left to struggle. Struggling to make sales means we aren’t generating the income we want and need to survive or thrive. We’re not helping ourselves, our families, or the causes we care about. We’re stressed. We’re fearful. We can get depressed. You get the picture. So we’ve got to not just figure out the whole sales process. We’ve got to get comfortable with it and actually embrace it as part of serving others. That’s right. It’s part of serving others. And that’s what we’re going to focus on in today’s episode and why I wanted today’s guest on the show.
