Take a coin, assign options to heads and tails, and flip it.The magic happens while the coin's in the air—your gut will tell you which side you hope it lands on.Sounds too easy, right? But trust me, it works!Visualisation Technique:For more complex decisions, close your eyes and imagine you've already made each choice.Pay attention to how it feels—do you feel expansive and excited, or restricted and contracting?Your gut will guide you here. Your Gut Knows What's Up:That gut feeling taps into your subconscious, which is often more aligned with your true values and goals than your head or heart. Don't ignore it!Look Back at Past Decisions:Reflect on moments when you went against your gut and regretted it.Then, think about those times you followed it and it turned out great—this will help you trust it more moving forward.Useful links for you: Take the free Business Magic Scorecard here.Connect with me on LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Send an emailDiscover what your Entrepreneurial Superpower is through Wealth DynamicsBook in for a free Virtual Cuppa here

    "I think it's really hard to quit something that's successful."In this episode, we dive deep into the courageous journey of Jess Lorimer, a highly successful business-to-business sales expert. Jess shares how she made a bold decision to completely reinvent her thriving business because it wasn't fitting with what she really wanted anymore.She ultimately chose to become a "category of one" rather than trying to be everything to everyone.Trust me, this episode is a must-listen for any business owner who has ever felt the pull to pivot in their business, even when things are going well.Key conversation points:1. The Decision to Reinvent: - Jess reflects on her journey of running a successful business called Smart Leader Sell but feeling disconnected from it by 2019. She describes how she realised that her business no longer brought her joy, even though it was financially successful. This realisation led her to make the courageous decision to reinvent her business from the ground up.2. Aligning Business with Personal Values & Entrepreneurial Superpower: - Jess emphasises the importance of aligning your business with your core values and strengths. She shares how she wanted to focus on what truly brought her joy—working with corporate clients and helping entrepreneurs sell to larger organisations. This shift allowed her to create her next evolution of her business, so that it was not only successful but also deeply fulfilling. She also shares show she's been able to use her Creator Wealth Dynamics profile to help her to make that happen. 3. The Challenges of Quitting Success: - One of the hardest parts of Jess's journey was the decision to leave behind a business that was already thriving. She opens up about the guilt and fear that came with this decision, particularly the concern that she was letting down her clients. Despite these challenges, Jess knew that she had to make the change to pursue her true passion and strengths.4. Becoming a "Category of One": - Jess explains her philosophy of becoming a "category of one" - creating a unique space in the market where she could stand out as the go-to expert in her field. This involved narrowing her focus and doubling down on what she does best, rather than trying to be all things to all people.5. Advice for Business Owners: - We discuss the importance of regularly reassessing our business to ensure it aligns with our personal values and goals. We chat about how small tweaks, as well as major pivots, can help business owners like you to stay on a path that feels authentic and fulfilling.Useful links for you: Take the free Business Magic Scorecard here.Connect with me on LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Send an emailDiscover what your Entrepreneurial Superpower is through Wealth DynamicsBook in for a free Virtual Cuppa hereJess's podcast:

    There's no failure in business

    There's no such thing as failure.Let's dive into a topic that strikes a chord with every business owner: failure.That word alone can stir up a lot of negative emotions and thoughts, but I promise you, by the end of this episode, you'll see it in a whole new light.No Such Thing as Failure, Only FeedbackOne of the core principles of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is the idea that there's no such thing as failure, only feedback. Just imagine if that became your mantra. Think about the positive impact it would have on your actions and mindset. Instead of dreading failure, you'd start to see every setback as an opportunity to learn and grow.Feedback as FeedforwardI like to think of feedback as “feedforward.”When something doesn't go as planned, it's not about dwelling on the past; it's about taking that experience and using it to inform your next decisions and actions. This episode is all about embracing that mindset shift and understanding how feedback can be a powerful tool for growth.Fixed vs. Growth MindsetYou might be familiar with Carol Dweck's work on fixed and growth mindsets.This concept plays a big role in how we perceive failure. A fixed mindset sees failure as a dead end, while a growth mindset views it as a valuable learning experience. If we can adopt a growth mindset, we can turn every failure into a stepping stone toward success.Thomas Edison's Enlightening MindsetThomas Edison famously said, “I haven't failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.” The sentiment is powerful. It's about not being discouraged by setbacks but seeing them as part of the process. This mindset can transform how we approach challenges in our business.Real-Life ExamplesIn the episode, I share 2 personal examples of when I was doing something in my business that didn't quite work out the way I had expected. I could have seen those as failures but they were actually filled with valuable feedback.Changing PerspectivesChanging our perspective on failure can alter how we think, feel, and act. It's about normalising mistakes and understanding that they're part of the journey. If we're not experiencing setbacks, we might be playing it too safe and missing out on growth opportunities.4 Practical Tips for you:1. Acknowledge Disappointment: It's okay to feel disappointed when things don't go as planned. Give yourself a moment to feel it, but don't dwell on it.2. Ask, “What Do I Need to Learn?”: This primes your mind to find the lesson in the experience, helping you let go of negative emotions.3. Reflect and Journal: Writing down your thoughts can help you process them and gain clarity.4. Talk It Out: Discuss your experiences with a friend, coach, or business buddy. Sometimes, verbalising your thoughts can provide new insights.Moving ForwardI encourage you to reflect on a recent or past experience you considered a failure.- How does it feel now?- What can you learn from it?Allow yourself to shift your perspective and see the feedback as a gift. This mindset will lighten your emotional load and make the journey more enjoyable.Share Your JourneyI'd love to hear how this resonates with you and helps you move forward in your business.

    Why doing less can make more impact

    Ever heard of Pareto's Principle?It's a game-changer because it helps us to realise that working harder isn't always the smartest move. In fact, it can often be downright counterproductive!Why? Because only a small portion of what we do actually makes a big difference. Pareto nailed it when he showed that typically, 20% of our efforts lead to 80% of our results. Think about it: - 20% of your marketing efforts often drive a whopping 80% of your sales.- Just 20% of your services or products usually account for 80% of your best sellers.- 20% of what you learn and implement usually brings in 80% of the impact.- 20% of your limiting beliefs and mindset blocks cab account for a whopping 80% of what holds you back!But without realising it, we could be pouring most of our time, energy, money, and focus into things that barely move the needle.Let's change that - for you and your business.In this week's podcast episode, I'm diving deep into Pareto's Principle and giving you practical steps to ensure you're truly benefiting from those magical numbers—80:20—in the right direction.I'd love to hear your insights after you look at what you're doing through this new lens.

    So, last week was the first time I watched The Big Bang Theory … I know … I'm late to the party!But it got me thinking ... imagine if the creators of that show, or any of our favourite shows for that matter, poured all their time and energy into crafting the perfect episodes, releasing it to the world, and then... that's it. No more episodes, no more series, no more sharing it again. Sounds ridiculous right, right?Yet, I see this pattern happening all too often with some business owners.Instead of sticking with what's working, especially when it's getting results, they get bored or lured in by the next shiny thing and jump ship.That's why today, I'd love you answer this question:What's stronger in your business journey - your staying power or your boredom-bias?In the latest podcast episode, I bring this concept to life with real examples and outline at least 7 key benefits of why more staying power can really help you & your businessEnjoy!Useful links for you: Take the free Business Magic Scorecard here.Connect with me on LinkedIn | Instagram | FacebookBook in for a free Virtual Cuppa here
