How Women Can Get Elected in Government: With CEO, Women For Election, Licia Heath Licia is the CEO of Women for Election, an organisation that provides training for women to learn the ins and outs of what is required to run for local, state or federal election. This information has always been opaque and Women For Election is trying to make the process of standing for election transparent and accessible for women in Australia. For our listeners in USA, UK and Canada, the process of election may differ from Australia's but the mindset in standing for election is the same. Talking with Licia blew up some limiting beliefs, and by listening to this, I hope it uproots any of your limiting beliefs for standing up, standing out and leading.

FISH Philosophy Founder John Christensen. Finding a profitable idea, NO ONE Else Can See! This is an incredible journey of how to pay attention a profitable idea from someone who has done exactly that! On a visit to Seattle, John Christensen, observed fish sellers at Pike Place Fish Market tossing trout and salmon through the air of the market, providing high energy that energized many pedestrians passing by on their lunch breaks. They gave their complete attention to each customer and ensured each had an enjoyable visit. Christensen noticed the actual work of selling fish was repetitive, cold and exhausting. It occurred to him that the fishmongers might not enjoy every part of their job, but they chose to bring joy to how they approached it. They also sold a lot of fish. He asked the fishmongers if he could film them and they agreed. That turned into a film entitled Fish. John Christensen created the Fish Philosophy from the film, and a book entitled Fish! A Remarkable Way to Boost Morale and Improve Results, by Stephen C. Lundin, Harry Paul, and John Christensen. If you've ever wanted to have a GREAT idea, listen to how John found his life changing idea as a documentary film maker and turned it into a profitable, corporate sensation, to help you find your own eureka moment!

To Dine For with Kate Sullivan It's taken me some time to introduce you to Kate. Kate is the Host and Executive Producer of the tv Show on PBS called To Dine For. She interviews movers and shakers at their favourite restaurant about what it takes to pursue the American dream. Here's why thats important for you... Because someone didn't hand her the show and say, "here host this amazing show"... INSTEAD... Just like the entrepreneurs she interviews, this is Kate's own show and from idea to broadcast - she has had to think like a business woman (when for years she was paid to be a journalist) and fund her own show to be aired on a major network. So whether.... your passion turns into a profession from your bedroom, kitchen table or an office space, it has been the same entrepreneurial spirit that has had Kate turn her passion, very publicly, into a profession called, To Dine For, on TV. With NO experience of hosting her own show or even how to go about it, no experience in sales or marketing
