Rewiring Your Brain’s Fear Response with Sabrina Shafer

Whatever scares you most will change your life the most! Today, I’m joined by Sabrina Shafer to talk about fear, a topic that every entrepreneur wrestles with. The kind that holds you back from the opportunities you know you were meant for.

This Simple Strategy Could Double Your Leads with Eleanor Beaton

What if the fastest way to grow your business wasn’t figuring it out alone? What if you leaned into collaboration? Today on the Strategy Hour Podcast, I’m joined by Eleanor Beaton, Founder of Safi Media and Host of The Woman-Owned Podcast. She’s trained tens of thousands of entrepreneurs, advised at Yale, and built a business that’s changing the way women approach growth. 

In this conversation, we explore feminism, the pressure to be a provider, and why hyper-independence isn’t the solution many of us think it is. Then, in the second half, we’re going to break down her round table growth strategy, a simple but powerful approach that could double your leads organically. I hope you’re ready, because we’re about to go deep!

How to Know When Change Is Growth vs. Running Away

At some point, you are going to have a fork in the road and choices to make that may leave you wondering what is right for you. I have a lot on my plate at the moment, and it’s bringing up a lot of questions about where my business is going, the kind of products I want to sell, how I want to show up online, and what I want my life to look like. Obviously, I could just keep going as I have been, but I have had this inkling inside of me that something is supposed to change.

Launch Your Digital Product in Just One Day

If there’s one thing I want you to take away from this pep talk, it’s this: the decisions you make today aren’t set in stone. Whatever you launch, it's an opportunity.

Digital Products I Would AVOID When You're Just Getting Started

It’s hard to believe that I’ve been creating digital products for over eight years now! I’ve learned so much that I want to share with other creators, because I want to see more people be successful with their digital creations too. Today I’m sharing which kinds of digital products I definitely wouldn’t create if I was just getting started. I think you’ll be surprised– the ones I’d skip aren’t what you’d expect.

How I Built a Million-Dollar Digital Product Empire

The most important thing to me in my business is to help my clients achieve their goals. Today, I want to break down what it took to build my multi-million dollar product empire and give you a blueprint of how I did it so that you can get started and launch your very own digital product. In 2016, I got caught in a five-car pile-up and suffered a traumatic brain injury that drastically changed my life. It taught me that my business was solely dependent on me and this was a massive wake-up call!

The Pivot: From Sellable Biz to Game-Changing Offer

Lately, I’ve shared a lot of the behind-the-scenes of my marketing and messaging pivot that has happened within my business but what I haven’t shared are the changes to my actual offer. This was not a small decision because I undid three and a half years of work to make my business more sellable and focused on what would give my clients better results. Today, I am going to share all of the changes I made in my business over the last three years. In order to give you the full behind-the-scenes, I need to back up quite a bit. I desperately wanted a product shop from 2016 and it was so far removed from the kind of business I was running. As time has passed, I have become more and more aware of the challenges associated with running one so I began to think about a digital shop. I saw a hole in the market for tools that help business owners enhance their client experience, present themselves more professionally, and speed up their sales process.
