[FFL 315] 8 Figure Women Entrepreneurs - 5 Key Differences

Progress requires effort. In business, however, continuous improvement does not necessarily equal to continuous exhaustion. Doing everything within your power is a great way to try to achieve that eight-figure revenue but knowing what to do and what not to do will make a tremendous impact on your financial gains. More importantly, it impacts the future that you and your family can have as you reach your dream of having a lifestyle business. Keep Reading >> On this episode, I discuss the five key differences between a six-figure entrepreneur and an eight-figure entrepreneur. I explain the difference between building an empire and being imprisoned by your business as well as some actionable insights from conversations that happen around the eight-figure entrepreneur table. I also share the benefits of understanding how eight-figure entrepreneurs build and grow their business as well as how you can up your game and ensure that the business you're building is creating a financial fortress for you and your family. "Make sure that the message you're bringing to the market is as clear, focused, and powerful as it needs to be - this is valuable, productive work that will continuously pay off in spades." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: Discussions with eight-figure women entrepreneurs Why eight-figure entrepreneurs iterate continuously How Serena Williams is an excellent example of a woman who iterates continuously The key to avoiding exhausting yourself How to create a focused strategy and the significance of sticking to it The flip side of highly intelligent people who run six-figure businesses A core shift you need to make if you're coming out of the corporate world Why impatience will never pay your bills, never make you rich, and never allow you to have the impact you're capable of having Why urgency is a critical component to success The revenue required to call your business a "lifestyle business" What happens if you are not careful about cultivating a positive mindset The importance of being crystal clear about your messaging Fierce Leadership Quotes: "You may not right now, from where you're standing, even fathom that you could ever build a $10 Million business. That's fine. Act like a $10 Million entrepreneur." - Eleanor Beaton "Eight-figure entrepreneurs scan the horizon. They're checking out the potential threats and things that could come up at them. They put in place contingency plans but they expect positive outcomes." - Eleanor Beaton "That expectation of things working out is so critical and that's what makes the work so sustainable." - Eleanor Beaton Join Me for Your Million Dollar Message Retreat Are you ready to outsell and out position your competition this year?

[FFL 314] Unconscious Bias -- This is So Embarrassing

Do you ever wonder about the underlying factors that contribute to your promoting someone? Or what leads you to trust another colleague more than another? While there are various answers to these questions, it is no surprise that our preconceived beliefs and notions that have been deeply ingrained in us inevitably influence how we see others and our circumstances. Keep Reading >> On this episode, I dive into the five different unconscious biases that people, including myself, commonly commit. I humbly share how I showed unconscious bias in the past as an example of how we have these biases no matter how hard we train to stay away from them. I also explain the significance of seeing these biases so we can bring them to light and determine how we can change them for the betterment of ourselves as well as our company culture. "There are two types of people in the world - those who walk around with unconscious biases and those who lie about them." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: What unconscious bias is and how it impacts how we perceive others and make decisions A distressing story of how unconscious bias persists even if you decide to stand guard against it No one is immune to unconscious bias Why I'm shining a light on my own unconscious bias The best you can do when you encounter unconscious bias Four more gaffes that many women have made in their career How prone you are to the "Tall and Attractive Bias" Explaining the "Affinity Bias" and practical examples of our inclination to affinities The "Conformity Bias" that most parents warn their children about Shedding light on the "New Mothers Can't Focus Bias" The challenge to do better and create a real sense of diversity Fierce Leadership Quotes: "Our unconscious biases have a major impact on our ability to receive information and make sound decisions." - Eleanor Beaton "When it comes to unconscious bias, no one - and I repeat - NO ONE is immune." - Eleanor Beaton "The best we can do when we encounter bias is to recognize it and shine a light on it in a way that allows the perpetrator of unconscious bias to maintain his or her dignity." - Eleanor Beaton Resource Mentioned: XX Factor: 5 common unconscious bias faux-pas Article by Atlantic Business Magazine Join the Exclusive Incubator Program!

[FFL 313] Why I Advertise on My Podcast

Before the invention of the Internet, advertisements and commercials played a crucial role in the existence and survival of commercial products, professional services, and network companies. Today, advertisements are still as valuable as they were in the past as evidenced by their ever-enduring presence on different media channels such as CNN, The New York Times, and MGM - big companies who could have thought of other ways to grow financially but still chose to include advertising as part of their marketing plan.

[FFL 312] How to Escape the Good Enough Plateau

As a fierce feminine leader, is "good enough" really good enough? You may think things are going okay, but deep inside you feel that there's more you can do, more impact you can make, and more significance you can introduce to your clients as well as your industry. If you are currently struggling with the "good enough" plateau in your career, take heed and be motivated to move beyond your comfort zone. Keep Reading >> Today, I share why making something exciting happen is the cornerstone strategy that allows powerful women like you to move from the "good enough" plateau to making a tremendous impact in your career, your business, and your industry. I discuss how meeting plateaus offer fantastic opportunities as well as what moving from success to significance really entails. I also share ways to strategically command attention as well as the components that you need for your ideas and message to be seen and heard. "Make something exciting happen. Take a risk. That is the path that takes you from a swampy plateau where excellence goes to die and propels you into the path of greatness." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: Why development conversations are one of my most favorite things to talk about The central strategy I give entrepreneurs who are struggling to be seen and known How to strategically command attention How to transition your revenue from low six figures to seven figures The central challenge that so many fierce women entrepreneurs are having The relevance of acknowledging the starting point of the problem The most effective way to move past the first step of recognizing the root of the problem The sign that it's time to make something exciting happen How I created something exciting that helped establish myself in the marketplace Examples of how to strategically command attention How Beyoncé made something exciting happen that set her apart from the pack Fierce Leadership Quotes: "If you want to have a deeper impact, you need to become well-versed in the art of strategically commanding attention." "When you're making something exciting happen, what you're actually doing is creating a platform - it's like you're setting the table and now you've got something for people to come and join." "If you're struggling to be known, to get your ideas out there, stop thinking about them with the same old, boring thinking that's keeping you where you are right now."

[FFL 311] Growth Mindset - Why You Need to Value the PROCESS (Not Just the Results)

"Practice makes perfect." We often hear parents say this to their children who are training in sports, learning a new skill, or taking lessons in the arts. We see the value of the process - patience, discipline, and hard work - that needs to be instilled in our children, but we fail to see that this same set of values also apply to us if we desire to be high-performers in our industry. On this episode, I share what decades of research says about high-performers as well as why it is crucial to value the process and not just the results. I also discuss the different types of growth mindsets that tremendously impact not only the way you see processes and outcomes but also the way you see yourself and progress as a high-performing leader. "High performers are made, not born." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: What parents usually say to their children who are pursuing a new endeavor Walking the talk about instant gratification Examples of a fixed mindset approach to growth What I have consistently seen from high-working leaders Fierce Leadership Quotes: "For many ambitious, goal-oriented adults, the idea of practice kind of floats right out of our heads." - Eleanor Beaton "We sometimes think that we should be great at something right away. We think that we need to get results right away and we're preaching to our kids about how instant gratification is wrong and bad, but we want instant gratification." - Eleanor Beaton "Whatever you're doing, whatever goals you're going after - yes, set them, have them. But devote yourself to a love of the process, not an attachment to the results." - Eleanor Beaton Join the Exclusive Incubator Program!

[FFL 306] The Difference Between a Well-Paid Keynote and Someone Who Speaks for Free

Confident. Credible. Accurate. These are some of the traits that we often look for in a remarkable speaker, not to mention well-paid one. We all have our standard and opinion about what makes a good speaker that deserves our time, applause, and hard-earned money. With all the criteria and different viewpoints about this matter, what does it really take to be a well-paid keynote speaker? Keep Reading >> Today, I explain the difference between a paid keynote speaker and a free one. I discuss the impact of having general opinions and points of view versus specific ones, how to reinforce the value that you bring to your industry as well as the significance of being intentional in accurately representing yourself. I also share strategies on how to effectively transition from being a free speaker to a paid one and explain the significance of positioning yourself preeminently to establish credibility and attract great speaking opportunities. "The difference between a paid speaker and a free speaker - it's actually not a difference at all. It's a decision." - Eleanor Beaton Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast: The benefits of being a paid speaker. How speaking for free can help you at the beginning of your business journey. When it's time to make the transition from that free model to a paid model. The first thing you need to do to make the change. An example of what preeminent positioning looks like. Actionable points on effectively transitioning from a free speaker to a paid one. Where a lot of people are running into trouble when they speak. Why you need to do an audit on your digital footprint. The harm that saying "yes" to every speaking opportunity could do to you, your credibility, and your business. Fierce Leadership Quotes: "The first thing you need to do is make the decision that you are a well-paid keynote speaker. That decision has to start with you. The market isn't going to tell you. You need to own that." - Eleanor Beaton "Your message is so clear; you are so strong in what you stand for that that enables you to represent something distinct and powerful in the mind of somebody else." - Eleanor Beaton "The results that you've helped people achieve, the wins that you've been part of, the awards that you have won - these are more important than certifications." - Eleanor Beaton Position Yourself in a Category of ONE Do you want to be recognized as the preeminent expert in your industry, solidify your reputation as an entrepreneur, and begin landing high-end clients?
