Ep. 90 Revolution Rewind: The Evolution of Client Experience Comes Full Circle

Ep. 89 - Mental Illness & Business: Shameful or Superpower?
Mental Health is an issue not to be taken lightly. Someone may look fine, but they may be getting through a battle they don’t even know about.
Our guest, Angelica Gonzalez, experienced this during her grade school years. She always wondered why she got not-so-good results in class even when she exhausted a lot of effort into it. She understood what she was going through when she was diagnosed to have ADHD in 7th grade. As soon she became aware of her mental health, she and the people that surround her helped her cope up with the daily situations that she’s going through. And now she is very good at what she does because she was naturally born to do it!
Angelica is an up-and-coming hairstylist in the Seattle area who believes that you never “just get your hair done.” She believes in creating energizing and healing experiences, leaving her clients confident and happier than before. Graduate of Gene Juárez Academy and an accomplished young entrepreneur, Angelica stands for being who you are - heart scars and all. She teaches others how to persevere through mental battles to unfiltered success.
In this episode we talked about:
· How important it is to be aware of your mental state.
· What external factors can affect mental health.
· How clearing your path and following your own timeframe can help with mental health.
· How support people can help you succeed in your craft.

Ep 73 : LinkedIn at the Next Level
Women are rising in the world, and we need to SHOW UP in order to grow. LinkedIn can help us do that. A profile that positions us as if we're peers with the most influential people in the industry. A network full of people we've DREAMED of, consistent calls and meetings with these rockstars!
Today’s guest is LinkedIn Strategist, Business Consultant, Speaker, and CEO of Uplevel Media, Karen Yankovich.
Having “been there and done that” in the arena of losing (and then re-finding) a focused approach to business and life, Karen now offers coaching and consulting for entrepreneurs. Her unique specialty blends her “get it done” attitude with a passion for soulful living in her personal services and online workshops.
Also, the host of the Good Girls Get Rich Podcast and LinkedIn Evangelist, Karen guides entrepreneurs to creating wealth by combining smart business practices with simple proven systems that develop and maintain strong customer relationships. She offers results-oriented and expert LinkedIn Marketing strategies that position her clients to bring in instant results. Karen’s background includes over twenty years in the fields of information technology, marketing, and customer relationships, making social media her ideal niche.
In this episode, we talked about:
- How Karen serves people with LinkedIn
- Why LinkedIn? And why LinkedIn now?
- Network strategy - Cherry-pick 100
- Ways to have a more attractive and welcoming profile
- LinkedIn Learning and LinkedIn Navigator
- Posting social content / LinkedIn Live
Karen leaves us with a piece of advice to walk away from this conversation; “If you have a great profile, and you don't connect with people, then it's like nailing a beautiful flyer to a tree in the middle of the forest. Constantly curate and bring in new people to your network. And that is how you have a network full of people that you have intentionally built.”

Ep 69 - Business after Trauma - Pain with a Purpose
Today’s guest is someone who has a story of triumph over tragedy. Stephanie’s traumatic experience had her rising as a phoenix, finding her purpose in her struggle and helping others conquer theirs.
Stephanie Shaw is the founder of Leigh & Ollie. She took the strategies she implemented to recover from a two-year illness and turned it into a coaching and online education business where she teaches women how to manage their hormones so they can lose weight, have more energy, and slow the aging process.
Stephanie created a protocol, The Mind Body Business Method.
The protocol supports high-performing female divorceés by helping them peel back the layers of why they can’t lose the weight – down to the DNA. As a result, clients build lasting lifestyles of confidence, energy, and a body they deserve.
Stephanie’s Master of Science is from Northeastern University.
She holds a nutrition certification from AHPA and an exercise and nutrition certification from Precision Nutrition.
In this episode, we talked about:
- Her Story - how her illness led her to her purpose
- Who she was then in the corporate world versus now as an entrepreneur (physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually)
- Hardest part of starting a purpose-led business
- On suffering alone
- Her experience moving into entrepreneurship and how it has helped others going through similar struggles
- “Playing Jenga” (Work-life balance)
- Become your own advocate - health is wealth
We all know the saying “If a door closes, another one opens”. And sometimes it’s hard to see the reason why we are suffering, but Stephanie’s story is a testament to the faith we should have in the bigger plan for our pain, so we can rise up and turn it into purpose.
To overcoming struggles and turning it into sacred service,

Episode 68: Creating a Schedule that Actually Works!

Ep 67: Why no one cares if you're consistent, and other marketing gems

Episode 66: Listen Up! The art of meaningful listening
In this day and age where freedom of speech and expression is more valued and encouraged than ever, most of us fall into the trap of listening to respond rather than listening to understand. How can we find the balance and connect more with others by talking less and listening more?
“We're all way more aligned than we think we are. We just aren't listening to each other.”
Today’s guest is Lyn Lindbergh. And in this episode, she tells us the value and art of meaningful listening.
Lyn Lindbergh is the founder and creator of ListeningSkills.shop, which provides group and one-on-one sessions that aims to help people improve their listening skills as a means to solve the world’s issues while creating deep and meaningful connections.
She is also an award-winning author, blogger, fitness influencer, and host of three podcasts including Listening Skills.
Today, Lyn talks about some of the ways we can listen deeply, intently, and more effectively:
* Absolving judgment; listening to understand
* Put that phone down. Pay attention
* Active Listening. Rephrasing or clarifying points.
If we can speak up about our truths and share them with others, we can also give others the chance to be heard. If people truly know how to listen, most of our global issues would be resolved easily. True connection is founded in mutual respect, and that includes respect for each other’s points of view, even if, and especially when we disagree with them.
To seeking to understand rather than be understood,

Episode 65: Fükitt: Power of Perspective

Episode 64: I Quit! The Life-Affirming Joy of Giving Up
The word "Quitting" has such a cultural and societal stigma on it that we are afraid of touching it and thinking it. But did you know that quitting for the right reasons can actually be beneficial to your life? Today's guest will tell us why. Coonoor Behal is the Founder & CEO of Mindhatch, a consultancy that helps organizations create the conditions for innovation and creativity to thrive.
Through Mindhatch, Coonoor delivers her unique mix of expertise in Design Thinking, OrganizationalImprov™, Innovation Facilitation, and Diversity & Inclusion. Coonoor has helped several big organizations such as Deloitte, Starbucks, Bethpage Federal Credit Union and Inter-American Development Bank’s Gender & Diversity Division (as well as the Department of State and the Pentagon) on strategy and collaborative thinking in many different ways. Coonoor is also the author of I Quit! The Life-Affirming Joy of Giving Up, which will be published by New Degree Press in April 2021. The book seeks to help readers rethink and reframe quitting by sharing stories from everyday people who summoned the courage to quit things in their lives
Today, Conoor talks about how quitting has changed her life and how it can change yours too.
Let's explore:
* Finding the confidence to quit that which does not serve us anymore
* Upholding our values even if it means letting go of a job or opportunity
* How quitting can make more room for joy and beauty and your life
* Understanding what you want to do versus simply putting up with something
* How talking to others who have a story about quitting can help you with your own choices
If you are thinking of quitting something or have just quit and are struggling now, Coonoor has one important piece of advice: Look back to what made you feel that way and make a list of what you can live with and what you can't.
Seeing the trade-off of the things that you are giving up should help you cope or make your decision. And remember, quitting isn't a bad thing!
To protecting our values and knowing when to quit,

Episode 63 - Multi-Level Magnificence: Thriving in Your Side Gig

Ep 62: Pivot, Disrupt, Transform: Set Your Strategic Compass
Lets be honest, the word PIVOT has been thrown around so much last year that most people use it haphazardly now. So today, I wanted to have a conversation with someone who has been using this word and helping other companies pivot even before we all learned that it was an option.
Enter Marcia Daszko. Marcia challenges leaders to Think, Pivot, and Act Differently. She is a trusted advisor who helps leaders pivot and navigate through crises, challenges, and significant growth.
And Marcia likes to say, "Too many leaders are struggling and they don’t need to. Some fail; some succeed. Why the difference?"
And Marcia answers a lot of the questions that some you may have already been wondering about...
* Do new leadership trends work? Or are we better off following traditional strategies?
* What steps and mindset shifts are needed to reach and exceed our targets?
* What does it really mean to innovate?
* What if I think my business won't survive changes or disruption?
* I am creative but I'm not good at business strategies, what can I do?
It's a disrupt or be disrupted kind of world. How fast we can learn and apply what we learned is our COMPETITIVE EDGE. Think about it, And if you want to learn more, reach out of Marcia.
She will disrupt you, challenge you and transform your business in ways you can't imagine!
To embracing disruption and never thinking out of style,

Ep 60: The Business Behind Business: You get a VA! and You get a VA! and You get a VA!
You probably don't know John. But you've heard of outsourcing to the Philippines. Well, he's the master of it!
When I asked John how he would describe himself, here is what he sent me:
1. I'm not employable. The work -> salary incentive doesn't work for me.
2. I really like to ride my bike, backcountry ski, and run with my wife.
3. In the 17 hours/week that I work, I manage my team of amazing Filipino workers.
4. I founded and run OnlineJobs.ph
So cool, right? Here's more.
John has been where we are now. He quit his office job armed with the dream of working less as he ventured into working for himself.
But he found that he was working even more! What started as an accidental action to free up time for himself, turned out into this amazing platform of super star Filipino workers where we can find the BEST people to help us out with the things that we want done, and the things that we hate doing!
This is a golden success story of how one man built his team, grew his business, achieved his financial goals while WORKING LESS than all of us.
And if there's one thing that I wish you would take away from this episode, it's this:
- If you think you can't afford a VA, you are ABSOLUTELY WRONG!
- If you think you are taking advantage of VAs because their rates are lower than what you would pay local, YOU ARE WRONG AGAIN.
- If you've tried but feel overwhelmed with the hiring process, reach out to me. We'll have a chat and see if we can help you out through our VA Matchmaking service.
Our VAs are kick ass individuals who are happy to to be working for us while they stay at home and build the life that they envision, all the while helping us build our businesses and allowing us to find the time to do the things we love. Isn't it beautiful?
To us and our Filipino VAs,

Now, the tradition of Festivus starts with the airing of grievances. And true to this tradition, I wanted to air some business grievances that I hope all of us leave behind for 2021.
*What's something that you hate seeing in an email? What is the best way to start or close a message?
*How soon before you follow up on someone who hasn't responded to you? When is soon too soon?
*How approachable are you? How do you make your employees feel that you are a normal ass boss who they can comfortably talk to?
*And guys, what the f*ck does business as usual even mean these days?
What business grievances do you have? Let them all out and leave all that crap behind...
There's a new way of doing things, and there's a new way of doing things better. We can do this y'all!

Ep 56: Beyond Six Figures: From Chaos To Clarity
What mistakes did you make when you were just starting your business? What did you do to turn things around? How long did it take you be successful and profitable?
As a long-time marketer and passionate entrepreneur, ELYSE TAGER has helped hundreds of small businesses, associations, and nonprofits develop and implement effective online marketing strategies to grow their business or organizations.
Today, Elyse tells us exactly as it is -- WHAT TO DO AND WHAT NOT TO DO. Want some free coaching from Elyse? Let's dive in!
Here are a couple questions that Elyse answers for us:
1. What things can I allow myself permission to do/feel?
2. How long does it take a business to be really profitable/stable?
3. My business is at its "baby" stage, what should I do?
4. Is a business coach really necessary?
5. I've reached my goal, now what???
6. How do I go from "solopreneur think" to "CEO think"?
7. How do I get to that elevated mode?
8. What is a CEO time block?
9. How do I establish proper goals and proper plans?
10. What does it really mean to BE OF SERVICE
And so many more...
AS our parting gift, here is what Elyse's biggest advice:
Whether you are on your 1st year of business, on your third or your fifth, the important thing to do is to keep going forward. No matter how big your goals are, hold on to that MOMENTUM and KEEP MOVING FORWARD. Your goals will be a lot closer as you continue to put "one foot infront of the other"...with or without heels. 🧡
To reaching your dreams...and going beyond,

Ep 49: SPARK Your Business Community
Tracey believes that there are WAAAAAY too many entrepreneurs running on a hamster wheel trying to get to success when it can be so much simpler and effective.
And this is where COMMUNITY and COWORKING come into the picture.
COMMUNITY is the key to success in life and business.
Coworking, however hindered we are at the moment, is crucial. We are social creatures and we want to be with other people to celebrate our wins or lament our opportunities.
If you haven't experienced this yet, this is probably what you're missing as an entrepreneur.
But what does all this really mean?
Tracey explains the nitty gritty to us and and draws the line between what is considered to be acceptable networking and what is downright gross.
To put it simply, here's what it means to cowork and be part of a community:
* Pulling people in with your authenticity
* You can get work done while being with other people
* Showing up for someone is not relative, it means one thing and one thing only
* Quality over quantity, get to know a few good people. You don't have to know everyone.
* JUST BE YOU
Ultimately, Tracey believes we are better together – and that’s what community is all about. Don't you agree?

Ep 46: Dream, Declare, Deliver!
Cristie is a sommelier, wine educator, creator of The Online Wine Course for Beginners, and President of The United Sommeliers Foundation.
At such a young age, Cristie has already achieved her dreams and she's not stopping there! She is the perfect example of how it is to have a vision, going from clarity, imagining ideal life and going towards that goal to achieve raging success!
The Cristie Norman Way:
1. #manifestthatshit - don't think about the obstacles that you will encounter. Immerse yourself in the work that you have to do and you won't even have time to doubt yourself. Before you realize it, you've already gone further!
2. Feedback, Feedback, Feedback - getting feedback every chance you get ensures that you find out what your audience wants so you can deliver exactly what it is that you have to deliver!
3. Create an evergreen product and if you can, give a part of it for free - When you provide value without asking for anything in return, people will follow you and will want to be in your community. Nothing beats creating new clients than creating a loyal community of followers.
4. Every interaction should be treated with positivity and respect - All messages you receive should be treated with equal importance because you never know who's at the other end of the line.
5. Outsource the things you hate - Make a list. And anything that you don't like doing or is taking up so much time and space for you, let someone else do it for you and take back your energy.
6. 100% commitment is easier than 99% - Do something and do it with everything that you have so you can get it done on time!
As Cristie puts it, "It's never going to be perfect...but just go ahead and start with it!"
If you have a product that's perfect and ready to launch, you've already started too late.
And I know we all have projects at the back of our minds that fall under this exact description. So what are you waiting for? Manifest and work towards that goal, girl!
All the animosity and doubt in the world will have no power over you if you are clear about your dreams, your actions and your delivery!
Do it like, Cristie!
Cheers!

Ep 45: Imposter Syndrome: Never Doubt Yourself Again!
Dr. Madeline Ann Lewis is known for making women’s success a priority through her coaching for Women leaders programs. She is a diversity speaker based in Maryland who provides key topics to transform organizations. Her audiences include executive women in government and women entrepreneurs.
She defines Imposter Syndrome as a feeling that makes us think that we are not good enough. And this happens when our businesses start to do well or we move up in the career ladder.
But that's exactly it, isn't? We've actually achieved all these great accomplishments but we stress out and we're secretly afraid that someone will come up and say, "You're not supposed to be here!"
So how do we overcome this?
Dr. Madeline talks about these points and explains each in detail:
1. Everything starts in the mind. Yes, YOU deserve to be there!
2. You are WORTH the PRICE that you SET.
3. Don't be afraid to toot your own horn!
4. YOU don't need anyone's approval.
5. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
It's a long and crazy journey towards overcoming self-doubt and finally finding the confidence to say, "I deserve to be here!" But it is possible.
As Dr. Madeline would say, "Never let anyone steal your joy (even if it's yourself)."
Patience is the key. Keep your patient spirit and walk in it.
You got this!
To holding on to our value and finding our best inside,

Ep. 44: Dating and Achieving Career Success: Not As Different As You Think
Heidi B is the girlfriend who tells you what you need to hear!
She believes that love and intimacy are accessible for everyone. But they won't come easy!
Heidi "slaps" women with hard-core realizations that force them to look at themselves and how they are behaving and choosing men. In the process of doing so, Heidi creates a journey of expansion and self-discovery for her clients.
And this extraordinary soul-level work isn't just for relationships. They also apply to improving work-life, careers and bad habits.
She teaches us these universal truths that are true about dating and our careers:
*Red flags are there for a reason - don't avoid them! Pay attention.
*Just because you made a bad choice, it doesn't mean that you have to go down with it. Have faith and rise above it.
And most importantly....
*YOU CAN ALWAYS CHANGE YOUR MIND - whether you want to get out of a job, a long term relationship or an uncomfortable situation. You can always change your mind.
Thank you for the truth bombs, Heidi B! You absolutely rock! And to all the women out there, buy the book! #trustme
To finding ourselves and owning it,

Ep 43: Don't Just Survive -- Thrive! A Woman's Guide to Uncovering HER TRUE WORTH
As an Author, Speaker and Coach for more than 24 years, Michelle has been helping women transform their lives by embodying their true self-worth, skyrocketing their self-confidence and busting through their financial glass ceiling on their terms!
Women working with Michelle shed their self-doubt, imposter syndrome and fear of inadequacy and learn to trust their intuition that leads them to greater wealth on their terms.
Michelle breaks the mold for us and teaches us that we are WORTH IT and that we are VALUABLE no matter what female shape, color, and size we are.
Today we'll learn the impact of:
1. Speaking up - Gone are the days when we allow ourselves to listen to "Don't say anything, just do it!"
2. Standing up for ourselves. There is no need to constantly prove yourself. It leads to burnout, anger, lack of connection and that just won't cut it!
3. Celebrating our wins and what we have ACHIEVED and SURVIVED!
Michelle also helps us understand that we need to become our greatest fan, our greatest ally, and our best support. And that we only receive the amount of support that we're willing to give ourselves.
Times are changing and so should our internal landscape.
"Stop doing the invisible work invisibly!"
Allow yourself to be uncomfortable, start showing up for yourself and get that sh*t! You got it, mama!
To kicking ass and showing up,
Riah

Ep 42: The Secret to Maximum Productivity
Audra understands the responsibilities of being a teen mother, single mother and now a wife and mother of six children. She's an entrepreneur of multiple businesses and she's also passionate about helping women across the world shift into peaceful productivity.
Today, we break down mental load on women in their professional, family and personal life. Audra believes that it is crucial for a woman to have a support team, or ways to reprieve from the chaos. Because if she doesn't, it could cause burnout and anxiety.... so how can a woman pick herself up?
We will talk about these overarching points and Audra tells us exactly what we have to do to reach peaceful productivity.
* Drink from your own cup
* Hold your family accountable too
* You don't have to do everything
* Honesty and transparency
* Self care does not have to be complicated
* The power of delegation
At the end of this episode, we learn that it is okay to say NO to others so you can say YES to yourself. When you begin to think of yourself as someone who is worthy, it is much easier to arrive at a place where you feel comfortable being in control and being able to share control at the same time.
Listen in as Audra bares the tried and tested strategies she used in order to succeed (while running a business, taking care of her family and keeping her mental, physical and emotional wellness intact) so we can do the same too!
To thriving and conquering,

Ep 41: Accountability: A Gentle Butt-Kick Towards Success
Accountability -- Do we crave for it? Or do we resent it? What does it mean for us?
Seeing too many women give up on their dreams gave Viktoria the drive to take action and make a difference. This is how she developed her BlockBuster™ Accountability Program.
Each person requires a different approach when it comes to understanding and achieving accountability. Viktoria has the perfect approach for each one.
In this episode, Viktoria Talks about:
- The Real Meaning of Accountability
- The Importance of Accountability in Your Business
- What the Accountability program is about and Who It Is For
- What the BBA Can Do For You
- The SOPS Method
- How You Can Get Started
At the end of this conversation, my biggest takeaway was what Viktoria said in the beginning, "Being accountable for someone other than yourself moves you."
And true enough, remembering that we do the things we do for the people in our corner gives us the energy to go forward.
Think of all the people who support you and who mean the world to you. Take a deep breath and say, "Accountability is my friend."
With love and light,
Riah
