52. Why Self-Care Is A Form Of Leadership with Erin Wiley

Hey you wild women! Today I have someone who helps women lean in and lead with their health. She understands that every woman is on a mission. She has a vision for her life that includes success, freedom, creativity, and adventure.

51. How to Develop a Winning Founder Mindset

In this episode of Into The Wild, We Wild Women founder, Renée Warren will take you through the steps you need to develop a winning founder's mindset. Originally recorded as a Facebook Live and re-purposed here just for Into The Wild listeners, this episode will leave you with some clear and actionable steps you can take in your business to help lay the foundation for growth. There is even an exercise at the end of the podcast that will help you uncover some of your own mindset blocks that could be preventing you from moving forward in your business. One in nine companies achieve a modest level of sustainable and profitable growth, even though all companies want growth. Most issues are internal issues, controllable to you, the founder, and not really much to do with outside factors. For example, blaming the pandemic for losing business which made you close your doors because YOU DID NOTHING about it, which is your fault. You can look at the situation as though it happened TO you or FOR you. It's up to you to decide. This idea is tracked back to what Chris Zook calls the Growth Paradox where he explains that growth creates complexity and that complexity becomes the silent killer within your company. You want to achieve a founder's mindset which is the power of the internal health of a company or just you the owner) to maintain its energy so that you can maintain creativity, innovation and consistency. Here's what I know: when you grow your mindset, you grow your company. In this episode, you will learn: Why 'knowing your why' and believing in your mission is critical to staying on track How to set clear goals to support your mission and how to develop a plan to achieve your goals How to create habits that work for you Why blocking out the noise of competitors, distractions, and haters is so important How ABC (Always Be Curious) is a key factor in your success How to shift your mindset around failure Why believing that you can improve can keep you motivated and make you a better leader and founder How hiring a coach or mentor can be the key to unlocking profit and potential in your business ______________________________________________________________________ Renée Warren is an award-winning entrepreneur, a 7-figure business starter, and the founder of We Wild Women, a business dedicated to helping women launch their dream business.

44. Manifesting Your Most Abundant Life with Christine Michelle

Hey you wild women! Christine Michelle is the Founder and CEO of The Aligned Soul by Ana-Hob Personal Development Brand and author of The Aligned Receiver. Known as The Vibration Lifter and Energy Shifter, Christine is a Frequency Alchemizer who helps you shift your frequency and elevate your consciousness to new levels. Lover of the Woo (spiritual) + the Do (practical), Christine left her successful Corporate Executive career to step into her Soul's Calling. Utilizing Human Design, Quantum Physics, NLP, EFT, Gene Keys and a ton of other modalities made her own, Christine Michelle is an Energy Healer, Seer and a Channel who allows Guidance to flow through her and speak directly to your mind and your soul. Christine helps you to tune into your own wholeness and welcome you home to who you truly are. She makes Quantum Leaps #normal. Intentional Manifestation gets to be easy. In this episode you will learn about: How holding space for others can positively shift energy. The Universe is your sugar daddy - it's always giving. You are creating resistance and are stopping the flow of the universe's abundance. You are taught to put expenses first but paying yourself first can be a better approach. Paying yourself first can also mean buying back your time and investing in yourself. Alignment is when your soul and your body and your mind are all working as one towards a goal or direction. True alignment comes from being in the frequency of being aligned with what you truly love and everything is working together to propel you towards those goals. Manifestation is just intentional receiving - everything in your life is the frequency that you are aligned with. Things are already available to you - you just have to be aligned with receiving them. If you can get clarity on your goals and why you want those things and give that to yourself right now, that's when you are aligning with that frequency and that's when your goals start to unfold into your life. Give this to yourself now, be that energy now. You don't have to wait for your circumstances to match your energy. Once you lock in your frequency, possibilities are endless. Top 3 tips to becoming more aligned: 1) Accept that 'it is what it is' - don't resist or force current circumstance. 2) Get out of your head and into your body. Trust your body compass and your feelings to feel more grounded and less anxious. 3) Tune into your heart and make choices that are aligned with your body from a place of groundedness. You don't make good choices when your body is anxious and worried. What it means to be a wild woman: Being a wild woman means being completely yourself and accepting all of your mess and your blessings. It's being completely free to say what you want to say and show up as you want to show up. It's accepting yourself knowing that you are perfect and worthy exactly as you are.

Hey you wild women! My next guest resigned from her corporate career in 2017 to focus on her impressive clothing line Kaela Kay. Her brand quickly evolved with a distinct identity, recognition of culture and customer loyalty. And the designs and prints are some of the most beautiful I have ever seen!! With a focus on her Ghanaian roots, she emphasizes the beauty in the prints and colors that come from and represent Africa through the Ankara (an-car-a) textiles. Of course not ignoring her North American upbringing, her designs are feminine, classic and classy. She wants all women to identify their personal style in their fabulous size. For this reason Kaela Kay stocks up to size US22 and will custom design for any fabulous size. Kaela Kay clothing is produced in Toronto, Canada by local seamstresses. This allows her to work closely with the seamstresses to create well-made and well-fitting styles. These wonderful women are self-regulated, creative and hard-working and are able to cultivate the artistic and work-life balance lives that they desire. As a mom to 3 beautiful beings, she strives to build a company that they too will grow to be proud of. In this episode you will learn about: "If you build it they will come." Best advice; collaborate and barter as much as possible especially when first starting out. Free fashion shows, give out free samples... Two business mistakes: 1 - purchased too much fabric from beyond overstock and it just sat there - did not sell well. 2 - The partner she worked with didn't fit well and she knew it wasn't going to go well. Stand in your ground. Fashion creative block: she goes back to her business plan and where she can find the motivation to keep the business going -- looking at her why. Connections through photographers and models. Consistency and organization are needed to be a leader at home and in the office. Tips for someone looking to start on their own: 1. Make sure you have a customer framework (ideal customer), 2. Write down your why, 3. Research other brands that you admire and read their stories. 4. Log off at 5 pm -- set boundaries. A good business takes time to grow, years if not decades sometimes. It takes time to find a balance between work and business. What it means to be a wild woman:"To be able to think the most out of the box ideas you can dream of and have the audacity to go after it, and then have the energy and smarts to keep it going."
