Ep. 89 - A Magnetic Client - Accelerating Business, Self-Leadership and Changing the Landscape of Retail with Anna Woods

The next in the series of celebrating some of the many incredible clients I get to work with, this episode introduces Anna Woods, a Leadership & Business Coach and Founder of sustainable retail store, Positive Retail.

Anna and I knew each other personally before she came into my world on a professional level. After working in a very specific way for years climbing the corporate ladder, she realised a year into launching her own business that she was operating in the same way she had back then. Knowing it wasn’t serving her in creating the business she had dreamed of owning - rich in values and with a sustainable approach - she joined The Expansion Accelerator.  Fast forward six months and she had created a whole new way of working. 

 

What I love about Anna’s journey is how she found her spiritual side and in letting that lead her, created a business that felt deliciously like home. She always says this approach and way of working was ‘the missing piece of the puzzle’ and I’m honoured to have played a part in this process and journey.

 

In this episode we explore:

 

• The turning points that took Anna from a corporate career to changing the face of retail
• How and why she supports women in her leadership coaching, moving them from mid-level to the top 
• Our thoughts on identity and self leadership and it being the basis of a solid entrepreneur
• How she opened up to her spiritual side and how this was the missing piece of the puzzle she had been searching for

 

Anna is an exceptional human being, rich in ambition, inspiration and empowerment. I hope you enjoy this episode.

Ep 88. A Magnetic Client - Changing the Future of Online Courses with Sally Hatherly-Burns

I’m so thrilled to bring this episode to your ears today because it’s a very special conversation, with a very special client and friend - the one and only - Sally Hatherly-Burns, Founder and CEO of tech start-up, The Portal.

 

Five years ago I launched my first online programme and Sally was one of two women who joined. Fast-forward 3 years later and she joined me for 18 months in The Expansion Accelerator and in that time she started shaking things up on the online space, started changing the game on online courses and then, shook things up in a big way by launching The Portal.

 

At the time I said to her “you realise this is just the beginning Sally”, and it was.

 

At the time of recording this episode she is in the process of getting funding and The Portal is set to be a globally known business. If you don’t know about it, you need to know about it.

 

In this episode we discuss:

 

- The turning points that got Sally to where she is today

- How the current landscape of online courses is changing, what’s working and what’s not

- How to create courses that actually have the impact you want them to have

- The mindset required for Sally to fully step into CEO (and how she made that happen)

- Her journey to regulation through energetics to create the safety required to meet this next level

- The mission beyond The Portal, which is women supporting women and why this is so close to her heart

- How she makes it work as a CEO and mother 

 

There are so many golden nuggets of inspiration in this episode and I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed recording it.

Ep.86 - How I Manage the Summer Months as a Mumma and Entrepreneur

As July approaches, a topic that comes up every year for those of my clients who have children is 'how will I make this Summer work'.

There is absolutely no one approach or right here BUT I do know there are strategies and processes that can support you so that you are able to step back and enjoy those precious days and moments. I know for me being a co-parent and running a multi-6 figure business that holds up to 50 women at a time, I have to approach the Summer with both my CEO hat on and feeling into my desires as a mum.

In this episode I share:

- How I personally make it work and how this has changed since last year

- What I'm thinking when making decisions that support both my life, and my business

- The trade offs I consider and acknowledge

- Mindset support around getting comfortable with the season of business you're in

- A few tips and tools to create more space for yourself

I love the structure that bringing these plans make in my business, knowing that year on year it gets to change and evolve. I hope this inspires you to do what feels right for you this Summer and know that you do have the capacity to hold it all.

• The huge life experience that led her to scarcity mindset with money and how she got out of it
• How she blends psychology, strategy and energetics in her coaching
• How the industry is changing

Ep. 84 - How I Planned My Second Half of 2023 on A CEO Retreat

Last week I took myself on a two day CEO retreat to map out the second half of 2023 and this episode of The Magnetic Woman podcast takes you behind the scenes and into the exact process I took myself through.

I share:

- Why I take myself out of my normal environment and how it supports me when embodying CEO me

- How I map out my strategy 

- What I consider when I go into the detail of a launch

- What I map out in my launch calendar

- How I run the numbers and what my revenue outline tells me (and helps me project future revenue)

- How I manage my calendar

I truly believe that taking the time as an entrepreneur to look at the business in this way, will always create a more solid foundation from which to grow.

Success doesn’t look like one right way, however if you’re looking to scale to your next level I invite you into doing this - or a version of it - for yourself.

I hope you take away some key planning processes and strategies to support you to meet your next level, whatever that looks like for you.

Ep 81 - How I ACTUALLY Run my Business

In this episode I’m taking you behind the scenes to share on what I do in my business, breaking it down from yearly, quarterly, monthly and weekly to the daily tasks that keep my business running.

I have so many conversations with female entrepreneurs about what ACTUALLY shifts the needle for them in their business and honestly, 9/10 it’s the consistency of the planning, strategy, visibility and intention (as well attention) that really moves things forward.

In this episode I share:

• How I map out the year
• The conversations I have with my accountant
• How I plan my launches
• How I reflect and refine what’s working and what’s not
• The relationship I’ve created with money and my finances
• What I’m currently optimising in my business
• What I actually do yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily

Finally I share an invitation to come with me behind the scenes for two weeks in June so stay tuned for that!

I hope this gives you insight and inspiration into how to scale your own online business. It’s not always the big bold moves (although they do help!) but in fact the consistency of the things we bring our awareness to that make the big bold results happen.

Ep.80 - What Happened in Peru

I’ve just been on the biggest initiation of my life to date - a 3 week trip to Peru meeting the Qero Paqo Shamans - and so in this episode I wanted to give you the lowdown on what went down, how I’m feeling and what’s ahead after this epic journey of transformation.

In 2017 I went on my first training with Alberto Villoldo, Founder of the Four Winds Society, Shaman, psychologist and medical anthropologist who has studied the healing practices of the Amazon and the Andean shamans for many years.

Fast forward to 2020 and I started my own path on the Shamanic Medicine Wheel and since then have brought more and more of this work to life in my world of coaching.

In this episode I share more about the power of the Shamanic Medicine Wheel, my intentions and lessons from the trip, what it looked like facing my own fears and allowing my ego to die many deaths and the meaning behind being stung by a bee at the top of a mountain 4300 metres above sea level!

I share more about deepening my energetic mastery and what it looks like for me now as I live  in ceremony with life and how this has impacted my business. 

Shamanism awakens us to our fullest potential and to remember the truth - our divine Nature. There is a new frequency and level of abundance that has come from anchoring into my light through this work, which I’m so excited to share with you in new offerings and one to one sessions. 

If you’re completely new to shamanism or curious to hear more about my own personal journey and how I weave it into my work, I hope this episode awakens something within you and inspires you to connect with yourself and life in a way you haven’t yet before.
