326: Courageous Self Leadership with Cherie Canning

Tina Tower welcomes leadership expert Cherie Canning (Luminate Leadership, Lead with Courage podcast) and shares how they first connected through social media and met in person at Christine Cochran's event. Cherie explains how her dad's coaching and her school leadership roles shaped her early view of leadership, then how being made redundant from Flight Centre during COVID pushed her into starting her own business despite never planning to be an entrepreneur. She describes her runway planning, building a workshop-and-speaking-centered business model, adding a podcast to build trust, and the mindset shift of pricing and selling "you." The conversation focuses on self-leadership, human-centered leadership as connection (within, with others, and with awe), sustainable success through planned breaks and intentional energy deposits, and Cherie's current goals of higher revenue/profit and more stage speaking, including her Ignite Women in Leadership conference on 13 November. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:49 Consistency on Social Media 02:00 Meet Cherie Canning 03:39 Early Leadership Roots 05:03 Redundancy to Reinvention 06:31 Taking the Entrepreneur Leap 11:16 Building Luminate Model 13:50 Self Leadership Without Boss 18:13 Human Centered Leadership 21:48 Can Leadership Be Learned 22:42 Nature vs Nurture Skills 24:16 Rewiring People Pleasing 25:59 Two Wolves Mindset 28:25 Sustainable Success Systems 32:43 Building Personal Brand 37:23 Social Media Boundaries 39:12 Defining Success Season 41:12 Ignite Conference Details 43:15 Closing Thanks Get the Free DEFINE AND ALIGN Values online course from Cherie >> https://www.luminateleadership.com.au/online-courses [https://www.luminateleadership.com.au/online-courses]

325: Managing Stress for Ambitious Women with Andrea Robertson

Host Tina Tower welcomes Dr. Andrea Robertson - osteopath, naturopath, nutritionist, speaker, and "inflammation queen", to discuss women's health (especially perimenopause/menopause), avoiding burnout, and building a long-term online business. Andrea shares her path from professional dance (including Moulin Rouge) and a large Adelaide clinic to online programs after burnout, staff upheaval, and realizing she needed to be bigger than her hourly rate. She explains common midlife symptoms (fatigue, brain fog, belly weight gain, anxiety), focuses on reducing inflammation and toxic load (often removing alcohol, gluten, cow's dairy, processed sugars), and emphasizes small nervous-system habits like box breathing and outdoor light. Andrea outlines her 12-week program, 3-week Inflammation Detox Diet, and newer paid-ads/VSL funnel approach as the online landscape has changed.

324: BTS Live Launch from Palm Springs

In this episode, I share why I'm in Palm Springs for launch and how running a destination launch energizes me compared to launching from home. I discuss the importance of effort, mindset, and strategy for success, noting that only 12% of female business owners earn over $100,000 a year, often due to a lack of strategy and mindset. I invite you to join us in Her Empire Builder, where we provide the support and community needed to elevate your business.

323: Reinventing Your Business For Life with Hayley Osborne

Tina Tower welcomes Hayley Osborne to the Her Empire Builder Show to talk about how having three kids under five has amplified Hayley's ambition, focus, and productivity, plus the kinds of support she says yes to (like a cleaner, lawn help, and leaning on family). Hayley shares her journey of business reinvention, from broad marketing and brand work (including launching social pages for brands like Jack Daniels) through different niches to ultimately focusing on health, wellness, and allied health businesses, along with lessons on trusting your gut, diversifying income streams, and using failure as fuel. They discuss the pressure of being visible, stepping into a personal brand, keeping marketing professional with systems, and why social media isn't the only growth lever. Haley highlights podcasts and live events as high-ROI marketing, encourages practising your clear "what I do" pitch, and defines success as freedom.
