Everyone’s got a story to tell and when we lean into those stories, and make them part of our messaging, we create a strong sense of belonging for the communities we build.

 

Our stories, unique experiences and the things we wish were different in the world are our superpowers. They make the people who resonate with us feel seen, and that’s key to getting people to buy from us.

 

How do we use these stories in our messaging? In this episode, I’m joined by The Pitch Whisperer John Livesay and actor Andrew Gray. They are the co-creators of The Superhero U, and in this episode they share how their program came to be, and who they want to help.

Human beings are naturally social - we enjoy talking to people, getting to know them, and hanging out, so why does social media feel like such a drag?

If you thought of your business as a person with feelings, needs and dreams, you might just realize that you’re guilty of cheating on it.

So many of us consider ourselves multi-passionate, but dabbling in multiple things could leave our businesses feeling neglected, which affects what we get out of them.

What are the signs that our businesses feel neglected and want to be loved on a little more? How do we show up if we want to show our businesses that we love and value them?

In this episode, I’m going to share the value of building a monogamous relationship with your business and how to renew your vows with it.

We all have these amazing things we want to accomplish in our businesses, and I totally believe that we can have everything we want. But we are messy human beings with baggage and challenges that can make it hard for things to work out. Sometimes that big barrier, and the thing that stops us most is ourselves.

Call it self-sabotage or limiting beliefs, we all have the ability to be our own impediment. How do we unpack these limiting beliefs and figure out why we’re getting in our own way?

In this episode, I’m going to talk about self-sabotage and what to do about it.

When our businesses aren’t growing, we’re struggling with exactly what we want to say and social media feels hard - the problem lies in our messaging.

Our messaging is what gets people to care about what we do, and makes us authentic, intriguing and magnetic. It’s the thing that makes someone think, “OMG, this is my person” when they hear what you have to say. If our messaging is in any way wishy-washy, confusing and messy, how do we hone it and make it more specific?

How do we start coming up with the things that will make us stand out? In this episode, I’m going to share why messaging is so important and how to dial it in. 

 

When your messaging is honed in, you can’t keep quiet. You can’t not say what needs to be said. -Dana Malstaff

    What aspects make up the messaging of a business that’s authentic and magnetic?

Courses are everywhere - everyone’s talking about them, offering them and telling entrepreneurs to create them. I get it, the natural progression of knowledge and growth is making a course about it.

But before we even think of creating a course, certain things have to be in place because great content isn’t enough, even if it’s put together beautifully.

So what needs to happen before we create a course? Why is messaging so important? In this episode, I’m talking about how to get a course to work for you at the right stage in your business.

 

No matter how good your course is, if your messaging isn’t right all the course has to stand on is what it teaches, and that’s not enough. -Dana Malstaff

  • Why we shouldn’t rush creating a course
    How do we know we’re making a course too fast and creating a recipe for sales PTSD?
Aug 25, 2022

A lot of the messaging we hear in business today is all about fast growth, overnight success, and things falling into place quickly, and we feel bad because we aren’t “successful yet”.

Building a really great business takes time, and that’s a good thing. We have to go through multiple iterations to figure out what works, and be the intern in our business before we can be the CEO.

If we forced our businesses to grow up faster we’d miss out on the powerful discoveries, market research, and incremental microshifts we get from slowing down.

In this episode, I’ll share why slow growth is so much better than overnight success.

Moms are notorious for letting clutter crowd our space. We rarely feel like we have our own dedicated space in our homes, and we’re always looking for a tiny nook and cranny to work and run our businesses.

One of the biggest pieces of marketing advice we’re given is to put considerable effort towards writing really good content - that the more well-written an email, sales page or website is, the better it is at connecting with people.

When our partners drive us crazy, we naturally get frustrated, and wait for them to fix themselves - which usually doesn’t work. At the same time, we give our children the love and understanding to be different and to grow in their own way. What if we could apply this concept of conscious parenting to our relationships?

Instead of thinking about how our partners need to change, we can actually create what we want by turning the lights on ourselves.

In this episode, Beth Rowles, a certified conscious relationship coach and founder of The Authentic Wife, talks about the simple 3-step framework that has helped hundreds of women fix their marriages and how you can apply the same to your marriage.

Is it possible to have babies and successful businesses? Heck yeah, we can do whatever we want, but we can’t pretend that there aren’t challenges that come with running a business and raising kids. Don’t ignore them - embrace them and allow them to exist.

The more we acknowledge and lovingly accept the truth of being a parent, the less hard we are on ourselves, and that makes this journey a lot easier.

As entrepreneurs and moms, our lives are made up of future plans, full schedules and urgency, which robs us of the ability to slow down and focus on what really matters.

Sometimes it’s necessary for us to pump the brakes, get quiet with ourselves and pay attention to what’s happening internally.

How do we make sure we’re not packing our schedules to avoid our real feelings?

In this delightful conversation, I’m joined by the host of the Goal Digger Podcast and author of the upcoming book, “How Are You, Really?”, Jenna Kutcher. We talk about the importance of quietness, slowing down and being with ourselves more.
