#156: Making Decisions in Times of Uncertainty
This last week, the spread and response to the Coronavirus has escalated. As we see more cancellations, travel bans, and other isolation measures, it can leave individuals and businesses feeling stressed and anxious about their health, finances, and future plans. There seems to be such uneasiness and fear of the unknown, that I wanted to record a last-minute podcast episode in addition to our regularly scheduled Tuesday releases. If you’re struggling with knowing what to do or how to plan and make decisions during this time of uncertainty, you are not alone. In today’s episode, I’ll walk you through how to make empowering decisions and move through this crisis with confidence, regardless of what happens in the weeks and months ahead. I’m also sharing how I’m approaching decisions in my business right now and the impact this pandemic is having on our services and programs.
During this time, I want to extend additional support to anyone who needs it. Right now, our plan is to host free Facebook Lives several times each week. If you’re struggling with an issue in your business or life related to the Coronavirus and need help with strategy and feedback, I’ll be there to answer your questions and help bring a little inspiration and motivation to your day. To get notifications and updates on when I’m going live, check my social media.

#155: Imitation vs. Innovation

We are all unique and our special qualities and characteristics will help us stand out among our peers rather than allowing us to blend in.

Things we’re covering in this episode:
- Various ways in which most people emulate and imitate instead of innovate
- Learn why more people choose to imitate and emulate - Find out how you can take steps to be innovative
- Discover how being inspired by someone or their ideas or strategies can be different than imitating them
- When your style or voice sounds similar to another professional in your field, learn the best way to handle that situation

#151: Follow the Signs
Today’s episode is part II to episode #149, Trusting Your Intuition. Feel free to listen to the episodes in any order but do listen to them both as they work hand-in-hand! And, as you listen, make sure you throw all logic out of the window. Intuition and signs don’t necessarily follow logic, but they can still play a crucial part in your personal life and career. Try to listen with an open-mind, and, as you do, you will learn that signs are some kind of validation or information from something greater. You will also hear relatable stories where signs created confirmations in choices being made.
Things we’re covering in this episode:
- What exactly is a sign and how you can use signs to confirm whether you are on the right or wrong path
- Signs, like intuition, are not logical
- Recognizing signs can be beneficial for anyone, even if you don’t think you believe in them
- How to determine if you are using signs in the wrong way as an excuse or an explanation when you feel as though you have no control over a situation and you want to point to something as an explanation
- Appropriate and helpful times to use signs
- Observing signs doesn’t always mean you need to take action, because sometimes signs just lead to confirmation of a path you are already on

#148: Growing with Your Money with Guest Jacquette Timmons
Do you often wonder if emotions are driving your financial decisions? Do you think about your money in the “right” way and are you using your best intentions to spend your hard-earned money? Financial Behaviorist, Jacquette Timmons, joins Hustle & Flow podcast as a guest speaker to enlighten listeners about the work she does to help her clients better understand how their financial decisions are tied to their emotions.
What we cover in this episode:
- Why it’s not just about managing your money, but how you manage your emotions around your financial choices

- Hear about financial vision and what that looks like. Everyone has emotions around the choices we make and how we leave our legacy even though some may feel more financially stable than others

- Hear more about Comfort Dinners and how they provide a safe place for healthy financial conversations with other professionals

Bonus Episode - Create Your Vision for 2020
Because so many of you are out and traveling over the holiday season, we do not have a regular episode of the podcast today. However, I did want to bring you a bonus episode, which is a rerun of one that aired about two years ago at this time and is related to creating a vision board. I am such a huge proponent for vision boards, and I’ve seen them work for me and my clients, time and time again. In fact, my vision board is framed in my office, and I look at it every single day! When you finish your vision board, I would love for you to take a photo of it and tag me on social media (I’m @heatherjoyhubbard on both Instagram and Facebook). Enjoy the holidays, and I look forward to coming back next week with a new episode that will also help you prepare for the best 2020 possible!
Things we’re covering in this episode:
• How a vision board can give you clarity for the future (and even act as a predictor of it)
• Why the magazines you use really won’t matter and what to look for when reviewing the materials
• What supplies you’ll need and how long the process will take
• How to decide on what to include on your board, and what to leave out
• How and where to display your vision board, and why this will be so important!

Things we’re covering in this episode:
• Why it’s so important to reflect on your past before planning for your future
• Questions to consider as you reflect on your wins and losses from the last 10 years
• A look back at my transformation both personally and professionally (holy cow, there were A LOT of crazy highs and lows)

#143: Using Stories to be More Persuasive
When you first hear the word, “storytelling”, you may automatically assume the reference is to an exaggeration of a narrative. Expert storyteller coach, Mike Ganino, debunks this common misconception as he further explains storytelling through business use. Mike’s journey didn’t begin in his current field of coaching clients on how and why to tell stories, but through various careers in areas of hospitality, improv, culture coaching, speaking and more, where he has gained invaluable experience in the power of a story. Through storytelling, Mike discusses how he helps his clients learn to provide factual information by adding life and emotion to the process so that people will more accurately remember the information.
In this episode you will learn:
• How Mike Ganino has used the classic “yes, and” taught in improv to transition and advance his career over the past 20 years
• Find out how Mike’s business has matured over the years and how Mike began working as an expert in storytelling
• Hear how Taylor Swift’s strong brand and marketing approach makes her a master at storytelling
• Learn how storytelling provides more than just the facts and information, but an interesting way for the human brain to retain information
• Worried that you don’t have a good story to tell? Mike explains how everyone has a good story and how to use it to your advantage • Learn how you can get started using Mike’s storytelling craft exercise on his website, www.mikeganino/storycraft

#142: The Joy is in the Journey (opening keynote from LIVE)
Join me as I kick off Life & Law LIVE in Miami with women representing 26 different states and 2 countries. I dive into the challenges we all face as we quickly approach the new year. We are hard wired to make change in our lives, yet many of us are so consumed with the end-goal of change that we forget to enjoy the journey.
You may wonder why you can’t be satisfied with what you already have. You may want change to create more balance in your life or to find more adventures or maybe it is an opportunity for more success that you are looking for. Whatever it is, you want more. Join me as I help my listeners understand exactly what you want and why. What is pushing you to want more and what is your end-goal? And, more importantly, are you enjoying the journey to the change along the way?
We have officially opened registration for our two-day live event next year, happening November 12th and 13th in San Diego! This event will be for anyone preparing for 2021, not just lawyers (and yes, it’s open to men too). If you sign up before the end of this year, you will get an early bird discount of 25% off the event price. Use the discount code “EARLYBIRD” at checkout when you register at http://heatherjoyhubbard.com/live.

• Listen as I explain how some of us feel like we are in our “peak” years and yet we aren’t exactly where we want to be
• Learn why the big goals and big dreams aren’t going to make you happy unless you focus on the journey to that happiness
• Dive into the details of what Hustle and Flow really means and how your life can see change through both hustle and flow
#141: Psychology of the Patriarchy with Guest Dr. Valerie Rein
Dr. Valerie Rein is a psychologist and brilliant businesswoman who magically came into my life a few years ago. It’s been so much fun watching her business grow and running into each other in the most random situations.
She has a new book, Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment, coming out next week so I had to have her on the podcast.
From generational trauma to patriarchal systems (including medicine and psychology), Dr. Valerie shares how and why women have been trained to believe that they are broken and that something is wrong with them.
She’s on a mission to change that narrative and provide practical tools to overcoming this epidemic. To pre-order her book, and receive the first chapter for free, all you have to do is go to https://www.drvalerie.com/book.
What we cover in this episode:
• How Dr. Valerie went from an overworked psychologist to a coach and speaker based on a health scare that set her on a new path
• Generational trauma and what she defines as “Patriarchy Stress Disorder”
• Why we tend to minimize and deny trauma and the reasons why you often need more than just talk therapy
• How change can happen very fast when you use trauma healing tools and techniques
• Dr. Valerie’s personal lessons from writing her new book

#140: Measuring ROI
It can be scary when you make big investments in yourself and your business. To help with your decision-making process, and to ensure that you stay focused on what matters most to you, it’s important to identify and calculate the return on investment (ROI) that you’re expecting. Sometimes that’s a financial return, but it doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re hiring a service provider, renting more office space, or adding new employees, getting clear on your expected ROI is a powerful tool.
Here’s what I’m sharing in this episode:
- How to determine if an investment is “worth it”
- Why ROI isn’t always about financial gain (and what else you need to consider)
- Examples from my own business on how I’ve calculated ROI when determining whether to make an investment
- If you’re not happy with the results, you might be surprised to know the real reason why…
- Why it’s so important for service providers and their clients to get clear on expected ROI to avoid disappointment and misunderstandings

#139: Websites that Convert with Guest Amber Vilhauer
I believe that websites are important for all businesses. While it may not be your primary marketing or sales tool, a good (or bad) website creates an immediate impression of your brand as well as your credibility, expertise, personal style, and use of technology. In the constantly-evolving digital age, it’s something we all need to be looking at and updating every single year – both in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and conversions. I’m redoing my website right now for these very reasons, so I wanted to bring on my web designer and developer, Amber Vilhauer, to share her best tips with you as well.
What we cover in this episode:
• How Amber went from a marketing and sales corporate superstar to starting her own agency
• Lessons learned from a decade of entrepreneurship
• Why narrowing your focus and speaking to your ideal customers is critical to the success of your website (and business)
• Tips and strategies for creating an effective website
• Why everyone needs a website and how it can help move your business and career forward starting right now

#129: unCorporate Manifesto
Although corporate America suits my personality quite well, I’m not a fan of the masculine approach. It shows up in so many obvious and subtle ways that for many it becomes too much and they exit out. From dealing with the good old boys’ club, having to dress and show up in certain ways, and working in a boring and stuffy environment, it’s easy to question whether the sacrifices are worth it.
In today’s episode, I’m exploring ideas of how to shake things up, push boundaries, and start to make corporate America more enjoyable for everyone.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
- Why it’s so hard for many of us to show up as our authentic selves in corporate environments
- How working in Biglaw affected my own identity and sense of self – and what happened when I left that environment
- The main reasons we water down who we really are in the workplace and the mindset that’s holding us back
- How adopting an unCorporate Manifesto can help reclaim what corporate America looks like so it’s more equal and enjoyable for everyone

#125: Competition v. Collaboration
I’m constantly seeing posts by other women encouraging collaboration over competition. While I understand the sentiment, it furthers the stereotype that women shouldn’t be ambitious or assertive. There is plenty of opportunity for us to compete and collaborate. If you ever worry about being perceived as competitive or if you think competition is a dirty word, this episode is for you!
Things I’m covering in this episode:
• Why women should compete – including against other women
• The double standard some women are unintentionally perpetuating that’s holding us all back
• When to compete and when to collaborate
• Why the real focus should be around women supporting other women as opposed to promoting the concept of “collaboration over competition”
• How embracing your competitive side helps ALL women win
