Woman Owned: The Growth Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs

If you're like me, you've enjoyed watching the NBA playoffs this summer and admiring the incredible athletic feats of the players. One thing I've noticed is that their amazing feats would not be possible without the game's constraints: two nets, 10 players, 48 minutes of gameplay. It is inside those constraints that the magic happens, and it's the same for your business. Without constraint, chaos ensues. Applying constraints is a fundamental step in allowing other things you care about to flourish, like your cash, influence, and autonomy. Keep reading So, if you want to scale your business and make more money with less overwhelm, then I invite you to consider applying more constraint. Constraint means making decisions, cutting off some options, in order to allow others to thrive. It's about eliminating costly distractions. In this episode, I'm diving deep into the different types of constraints you can apply to your life and business to allow for more fun, ease, and CIA. You'll learn three ways to bring greater 7-figure constraint to your company so you can scale with more focus and success. I'm sharing my approaches to applying constraint and why I know this strategy will be amazing for your business and personal life. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: What a constraint is and where it comes from. Why pruning is an act of love. How to declutter your business. The 3 categories of constraints. What I see happens for my clients who don't apply constraints. How to fill your business with clean money.

Before I had this coaching business, I had a very successful consulting business for over 10 years. It was great, but I eventually reached a point where I needed to shift mindsets, to stop doing the work, and start building an ecosystem. So many women CEOs are at the same spot I was before I made the change. You know that if you get sick or don't show up, your business doesn't make money. You have no CIA (cash, influence, and autonomy) and you're spending 25 hours a week just delivering on what you sold. Keep Reading >> Today, I'm re-introducing you to the business structure we recommend in our business accelerator, PPAM. If you want to have more open time, more CIA, and you want to make a bigger impact, then PPAM is the way to go. Using this model will help you achieve 7 figure status with more time for everything.

Contrary to popular belief, growing a business is not the be-all-end-all it's cracked up to be. Now, scaling a business, that's a whole other story. Growth and scale are not the same thing, and using them interchangeably only creates stress and confusion. On a basic level, scaling sets you free and growth creates more problems. I don't know what your mission here on earth is, but I know you have one. And I know it isn't to make more revenue so you can have more headaches. But that's what focusing on growth will get you. Keep Reading >> When I work with women entrepreneurs, the one thing we all have in common is a greater mission. Money is great, but we're here for more. You're here to scale so that you can make a greater impact, change lives, change your industry, and direct your abundance into causes you care about. Today on the podcast, I'm diving into why we've got to stop using "scale" and "growth" interchangeably and how to decide which one you've been working towards. I'm sharing the 3 principles of scale so you can get more cash, more influence, and more autonomy, while also fulfilling your mission. I'm telling you exactly how to stop overworking yourself, simplify your systems, and scale with confidence. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: Why it drives me crazy when people use these terms interchangeably. The differences between scale and growth. The 3 things that every female entrepreneur I've ever met has wanted. What traditional growth models are about and why they need to evolve. The 3 principles of scale. Why scale gets you closer to fulfilling your mission than growth does.

We received an unprecedented number of emails and messages about episode 421, my conversation with Barbara Huson, about getting wired for wealth. So many of you were thanking us for that conversation and sharing your thoughts on aiming for wealth instead of riches. One of the things that really stood out to me in that interview was Barbara's dedication to her focus, to her zone of genius. She has spent three decades working with women on rewiring their mindsets for wealth. We talk a lot about niching down and nailing your message here, and to say she is an expert would be an understatement. Keep Reading >> I know so many of you were inspired by Barbara to achieve wealth in your own businesses. If that's you, it's time to stop dickering around doing all the things, serving all the people, and start focusing on just one thing. It's time to have zone of genius discipline. In today's episode, I'm unpacking what it means to have zone of genius discipline and showing how Barbara's body of work is a perfect example of the success that comes with specializing. There's a tremendous temptation to be a generalist these days, but I invite you to imagine what your life would be like if you had the courage to dive deeper, niche down, and sink further into your zone of genius. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: How Barbara is making a massive impact by focusing on her zone of genius. Why it takes courage to let other things go so you can focus on your zone. The success you can have when you niche down consistently over time. Why becoming a generalist waters down your brand and power. Resources Mentioned: What is holding you back from practicing discipline in your zone of genius? I want to know, so send me a DM on Instagram!

Many of you sell knowledge and transformative work to your clients and customers. Some of you are coaches, authors and podcasters, and others are expertise providers. In our programming, we teach you to package your expertise as intellectual property, but I want to invite you to take it even deeper. I share what I share in these podcasts and in our programs to help you think more deeply about your business and the core philosophies that underpin your offerings.

When you can get crystal clear on your philosophy, every decision you make comes from a place of alignment and authenticity.

Have you ever heard the phrase, "Revenue is vanity and profit is sanity"? The idea is that it's not how much money you make, it's actually how much of it you keep. There are plenty of 7-figure earners out there, but not all of them are wealthy. Some are actually broke. I would love for you to both make and keep a ton of money because doing so brings so much peace of mind and freedom. To help you understand how to build a business that results in you being wealthy and not broke, I've invited the Queen of Money herself onto the show today. Keep reading Jackie Porter is an entrepreneur, author, media commentator and financial expert who helps women entrepreneurs like us make money, keep money, and avoid becoming broke millionaires.

In today's episode, Jackie and I discuss the differences between closing sales in your business and having something to show for it. We talk about the importance of women increasing their financial literacy and some ways you can do that, as well as her advice for managing your money and building wealth. To get the cash, influence, and autonomy we all want, we need to learn more about our money and start nurturing positive relationships with it. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: What a broke millionaire is and the reasons some entrepreneurs become them. How it's more expensive to be a woman than a man. How patriarchal judgement holds women back from learning about their money. Where Jackie's passion for the economic empowerment of women comes from. What the Rule of 72 is and how to use it. Some simple practices to build a positive relationship with money. How to find the right accountant to advise you on building wealth.

Then there's the money you take out of your business and spend in your local economy. As a business owner, you are part of a big global money tapestry called the economy.

You have a message to share with your people about who you are and what your business does. But, the idea of showing up on video to share that message paralyzes you. Stepping into the spotlight seems terrifying, and this fear prevents you from sharing your message. As the CEO of your company, and especially if you're a company of one, it's very important to be a spokesperson for your organization and its mission. You might be scared of showing up and being judged, criticized, corrected, or maybe you just don't like how you look on camera. These reasons for not being visible aren't serving you and they aren't helping you be the strong leader your company needs. Keep reading My guest today is an expert on showing up authentically and powerfully online and in front of the camera. Keri Murphy is my dear friend and the CEO and founder of Inspired Living. As an international speaker, media expert, and business mentor, she's a master at showing entrepreneurs how to show up authentically on camera and how to leverage video in their branding. In today's episode, Keri and I discuss the incredible act of courage it is to show up authentically and to share your truth. Keri walks us through her experience with visibility and how she helps entrepreneurs work through their discomfort so they can be the strong, visible leaders their businesses need. From social media to how our comfort changes as we age, Keri and I cover it all in this episode and you do not want to miss it. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: Keri's experience of getting comfortable with being seen. How our comfort in showing up has evolved as we've aged. The difference between hustling and unwavering commitment. Why you need to be aware of comparison-itis when using social media.

I have a question for you. With what your business is currently offering, are you striving to serve your audience or to impress your peers? Meeting your audience where they're at makes sense, right? So then why is it so hard to do? I have seen it so many times. We get excited about the success of our business and we begin to overshoot our prospects, overwhelming the audience. Doing this impedes your ability to serve them and ultimately cripples your business growth. Keep reading The truth is that audience choice is a seven figure decision. You need to be careful when selecting your niche and exactly how you want to serve them. Once you make that decision, stick to it. Continue to examine and meet their needs as best you can.
