Ep 221: Mindset: Entrepreneurs and Vulnerability
In this episode, I decided to open up and share a rather painful, but beautiful experience that happened to me recently. This year has seen many breakthroughs for me. This was another one.
Ep 220: I'm the bottle neck. Again.
You would think with me hiring a VA that my workload would get less. In fact, it's doubled. Yikes! Here I talk about what happened; what I'm going to do about it; and keep finding more clients.
Ep 219: Moving Forward: My First Guest Interview!
I set a goal at the beginning of the year to focus on giving 100 speeches. Getting in front of other people's audiences. Well, I'm running a bit behind. But scratch 1! I did my first guest interview the other day. And in this episode, I'll share what happened; what I learned; and how I'll be a better guest going forward.
Ep 218: I let a client go.
You can't be all things to all people. A lesson I reminded myself of this last week. In this episode, I'll share what happened and why I decided to end my business dealings with one of my clients. And what this means going forward.
Ep 217: Onboarding 2 New Clients!
So things are moving right along! With the launch of the new podcast, I was able to pick up 2 new clients for my new part of my business which is podcast production. I never thought about doing podcast production for others. I thought about teaching them how to do is faster. But some entrepreneurs don't want to learn how to do it. They just want it done. So here's that story!
Listen to new podcast "Entrepreneurs on Podcasting"
Ep 216: Publishing podcasts to the website
An integral part of the podcast is the website. I use Wordpress just because of the ease of use. Today, I share what my plans are for the website behind "Entrepreneurs on Podcasting". Also, why am I training my VA on how to use Wordpress? And what this means for the long term plans for the business?

Ep 215: The most important part of the podcast is ...
Show notes is where podcasts are made. Google search engines love love love show notes. In this episode, I talk about the show note format that I'm using; how I'm trying the VA to write them for me; and what this means for the podcast and my business moving forward.

Ep 214: How often should you publish a podcast?
Consistency is important when producing content. But it's not every day or every week. It's what is consistent for you. Today I talk about my decision to produce 2 episodes a week and the implications of that decision. I just didn't expect that people would be so eager to talk about how they are using podcasting for their business. And that's a good thing!

Ep 213: The New Podcast Is Here!
The new podcast has launched! Yeah! I'm really excited about how this can impact entrepreneurs who are wanting a podcast or have a podcast. Here are some lessons learned and the goodies we can take away from this.

Ep 212: Probably the best piece of content I've every produced
Recently I joined a group where I believe my ICA is hanging out. When I wrote my "Hello!" post, I had some great questions come in regarding a single statement that I made. "I believe that podcasting is the ultimate business growth tool." What followed was a great conversation about what podcasting can really do for a business.
I'll share what that conversation was. And why I believe it's one of the best pieces of content I have ever written.

In this episode, I share what I'm doing and the story behind it.

Ep 207: Why Are You Waiting?
So there's something you know you need to do. Whether it's for your business, your friends, your family ... and for whatever reason or another. You're putting it off. Why are you waiting? You're not allowed to give excuses. That's where I found myself the other day when I was speaking with my coach. Something I knew I needed to do but I was waiting. She asked me why. And I had no answer. Today, I explore this topic and give some things I'm thinking about as to why I always seem to wait.

Ep 179: Why you really only want a 1% success rate
Seriously? Why only 1%? I know ... in a world where we thrive on success, knocking it out of the park on the first swing, we only think that 100% is acceptable. Believe it or nuts, 1% can be a gift whereas 100% is a curse. History is full of great companies that succeeded all the way into bankruptcy.
