Woman Owned: The Growth Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs

We've made it to the end of the mega year that is 2020 and many of you are thinking about how to make 2021 a growth year. You want to make it a departure, a powerful year, a fun year. Well, the one way to do that is by reducing complexity. Complexity creeps into your life and business in very subtly, sneaky ways. Before you know it, an onboarding process that could be done in 13 steps suddenly takes over 100. That's what happened to me until I learned how to reduce complexity. Keep Reading >> You won't make 2021 your biggest growth year by going faster and doing more. That frenetic, unfocused energy just amplifies inefficiency and allows complexity to move in. The thing you need to do requires patience and deliberation. Today on the podcast, I expose the master of business complexity, scarcity mindset, for what it is and delve into why so many smart businesswomen fall into this trap. Operating from a place of lack, fear, and not enough makes your business processes more complex. If you want to really streamline your processes and create a clear path to growth, you must reduce complexity. And in this episode, I show you exactly how to do that. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: How I cut out 87% of the complexity in my onboarding process. Why scaling your business also includes scaling the complexity. Why it has to be you, the CEO, who makes the cuts. What contributes to business complexity in the first place. How the opposite of scarcity isn't abundance. The importance of honoring where you're at and being patient with yourself. Resources Mentioned: Ep #287 of The Life Coach School Podcast Love the show? Let us know!

Finding and cultivating relationships with profitable business partners is one of the most lucrative activities you can do in your business. And quite frankly, it's one of the best rewards. So why is it that so many women waste their time with terrible partnerships? When I see clients waste time on partnerships that aren't fun, productive or profitable, I know what's likely going on. Sometimes, we get lulled into partnerships not because they're strategic, but because we don't have the confidence to achieve the goal on our own. Keep Reading >> My guest today, Ebere Akadiri, is an expert at cultivating strategic partnerships and creating fun and effective collaborations. Not only has she run multiple successful businesses, but she has a similar goal to me, helping more female entrepreneurs become successful. This is one of the many reasons we work so well together. Today on the podcast, I'm interviewing Ebere on her journey to entrepreneurship and her advice for other women entrepreneurs looking for strategic partnerships. Collaboration is one of the cornerstones of female micro-economies, and women like Ebere can teach us all a thing or two about finding these partnerships and nurturing them so everyone succeeds. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: Why we sometimes join partnerships that aren't successful. How leveraging partnerships can help you grow your brand. Ebere's experience as an entrepreneur. How to maintain business continuity alongside changes in your family. How Ebere created the Rise and Lead Conference and found partners.

While the hoards have been busy wishing away 2020, arguing over the science of masks and the legitimacy of shutdowns, something truly astounding has been happening before our very eyes. People are saving. Amidst the upheaval caused by COVID-19, the decline of the airline industry and the hotel and hospitality industries, from an economic perspective, what has resulted is fascinating. Households, individuals, and companies have been putting away cash. Not for a rainy day, but for when they can trust the future again. Keep Reading >> When that trust returns and we have a renewed confidence, I believe there will be a "Pent Up Cash" Extravaganza. And we need to be prepared for it. Is your business prepared for when people start buying again? Are you even thinking about that time? In today's episode, I share a mini economics lesson that all business owners need to understand right now. Consumers will spend again, and the way you position yourself now matters. I'm sharing how you can prepare for the coming "Pent Up Cash" Extravaganza and ensure your business is positioned well to receive it.

I'm going to address this confusion in today's episode, and take it a level deeper to help you evolve further. Keep Reading >> There is one thing that the most elite personal brands and top influential leaders have in common. It isn't the time they wake up or how they organize their schedules.

I am so excited to share my conversation with my fabulous guest with you all today. She's mouthy, she's outspoken, and yes, she is rich.

Have you noticed all the dancing and pointing on Instagram reels lately? Women are dancing and pointing and the algorithms are loving it, which is why so many smart marketers whom I adore are doing it. It works. However, I won't be dancing and pointing any time soon. Cooperating with and leveraging the power of what's working right now, especially on major social media platforms, is really smart and I recommend it. Yet when I recently sent an email to my list about why I won't be dancing and pointing on Instagram, I got an unprecedented response. Keep Reading >> Here's the thing.

There are things you say and then there are the messages you send. These are not always the same thing. You could be sending potentially damaging subliminal messages to your audience if you aren't conscious of this one thing: consistency. Now, I know, consistency is about as glamorous as oatmeal. But, it's not only crucial for building your business, but it seriously impacts the message you send your audience. And it's something I see business owners working towards 7 figures struggle with. Keep Reading >> There are tons of valid reasons why you might not be showing up like you used to for your audience. The pandemic has been so rough on business owners. You could be burnt out, feeling low, or stuck in all or nothing thinking. Here's the thing: you don't have to be doing everything to maintain consistency. Today on the podcast, I'm helping you see the message you've been sending your market when you don't show up consistently. Maybe you've stopped posting on social media or you don't turn your Zoom camera on for meetings anymore. These small actions matter, so I'm sharing what you can do to improve your consistency even when things feel really hard. The struggle is real, but so is the damage you cause to your business when you stop showing up. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: The connection between market leadership and consistency. Some examples of what inconsistency might look like for you. The subliminal message you are sending to your market. Why you might not be showing up consistently. What to do when you've been inconsistent. Why knowing what your bare minimum is, is so crucial.
