Pausing & Pivoting: An update on life & business

Hello, my beautiful introvert friend! It's been a while, and I'm thrilled to be back sharing updates on life and my path of gentle business. If you're feeling tired, overwhelmed, or disenchanted, especially in the online space, grab a cup of tea and hang out with me. In this episode I share the messy and beautiful journey of doing business differently. Driving this is the desire to stay true to my voice, purpose and nature as an introvert. I'll give you a glimpse into my unconventional path, including taking a break in Brazil, pausing my marketing, getting a Director of Operations certification, and working at a bakery - all as part of a strategy to do business my way. In this experimental phase, I'm following what feels aligned and regenerative. This means questioning the status quo and finding my own path based on values & inner knowing.  I see all of this as an example of redefining how we work and it’s just the beginning!  ……………………………………..

Ep 23: Habits for Ease for Intropreneurs - Season Finale

In this season finale, we're delving deep into the world of habits and how they can bring ease into your business, especially if you're an introverted entrepreneur or anyone with unique energy needs.  Instead of spouting a list of habits at you, I explore the concepts behind the habits, so that you can be empowered to choose the practices that work for you and your unique introverted self. These concepts come from my training in yoga, Ayurveda, life coaching, online business and my studies on introversion and human design. You’ll learn deeper concepts behind the habits & strategies so that you’ll not only feel relief, but also more like your true self - yes, in your business! I also give you self-coaching questions that you can use to identify stressful areas in your business and create true-to-you strategies to improve them. Ultimately, this episode is about you finding YOUR way of working and creating the EXPERIENCE that you want to have in your business. This is also the season finale for Empowered Introvert, as I embark on my annual trip to Brazil soon. I think this is my favorite episode of the season. I hope you love it! ……………………………………..

Ep 22: Strategies for joyful email

In this episode, I look at reducing overwhelm in your business by changing your relationship with email.  If you’re an intropreneur or a sensitive person seeking a healthier and more joyful relationship with their inbox, you’ll find useful strategies and mindsets that can turn your email from a chaotic virtual junk drawer into a source of ease and productivity.  In the first part, I discuss ways to cultivate an empowered mindset towards email management. It really is possible to improve! We'll touch on key points like envisioning your ideal email experience, setting boundaries, and incorporating rituals to help you bring more presence & purpose to checking your inbox.  In the second part, I explore practical strategies to transform your email routine and organization.  Then I wrap up with a list of questions that will help you figure out how YOU want to relate to your own inbox and the actions that you want to take to create an experience that you feel good about. EXCERPTS FROM THE EPISODE: “Email is like a huge virtual junk drawer, filled with messiness, overwhelm, and anxiety." “You engage with your email every day, why not make it an experience you enjoy?” “Your time, attention, and focus are precious resources; build systems that maximize them and make you feel good.” “Email is where our less balanced sides can play out, revealing people-pleasing and boundary issues." “Creating a system for  your email puts you back in the driver's seat." ……………………………………..

Ep 21: Overcome overwhelm in your business & create systems for ease

What’s actually going on when you’re feeling overwhelmed because you have so much work? If you’re feeling burned out in your business, especially if you are an intrapreneur, sensitive solopreneur, an unconventional self employed person in some capacity, this episode is for you. As a solopreneur, you’re often figuring things out as you go, which is fantastic! But once you’ve reached a certain level of success, continuing to do business this way can create stagnation & burnout. But you can absolutely find solutions that not only reduce overwhelm, but that set you up for the next level of success and ease. Especially as a sensitive person, it’s vital that you find a way of working that allows you to honor your energetic needs and plays to your strengths. Setting up structures in your business to support you to be YOU is totally possible - and vital to keep your business sustainable (and even regenerative). I explore this topic from a mindset and operations perspective. Operations includes the systems, processes, workflow, software and other tools you use to deliver your service & run your business.  You’ll learn to: * Understand the impact of cash flow and scarcity on your nervous system and business decisions * Identify the sources of burnout, from loose boundaries and perfectionism to inefficiencies with systems, processes and other operational tools * Where to look for inefficiencies in your business operations, such as scheduling, working against your energy, wearing all the hats, and doing things the hard way * Discover the importance of creating a plan to build in self-care, joy, and connection while optimizing your business for success. * How to identify the high impact areas for you to focus on changing so that you create more ease in your business  ……………………………………..
