Ahh it's the start of the very exciting new series which I have named How to... and it is all about breaking down the journey of entrepreneurship into small steps which are easy to follow. This is all the stuff I wish I’d known, in one place, the permission and guidance I wish I had had to just start. This week is all about my own journey! Slightly terrifying because I don't think I have ever so openly or honestly shared my journey and the rollercoaster ride I have had. If you don't know how you can start your own company then check out my '4 Easy Steps to Finding Purpose' over on my website. www.kimberleybarnardcoaching.com   

When I decided to start my business, I was full of excitement BUT that quickly changed when I started worrying about what I needed to do, the to-do list seemed to stretch into a never-ending series of chores, the questions of 'what should I do first?', 'what is important?', 'what will have the most impact?', 'what should I not be wasting my money and time on?' constantly played on my mind. ⁠ ⁠ The excitement quickly turned to overwhelm and then to fear. A great way to kill an awesome idea and business. Turns out I wasn't the only one feeling like this!⁠ ⁠ 'How do you actually start?' is one of the things I get asked the most by people I speak to. ⁠ ⁠ This week on the podcast, I talk about and answer all of those questions including what is worth doing, investing in and spending time on. Most importantly what should you do first to lay solid foundations in your business to ensure success?⁠ ⁠

This week I spoke to Melanie Gow, The Legend Maker, all about the power of your story and how to tell it. During our chat, Melanie said, “as soon as she had found her story/purpose things just started to work effectively and globally”.

We also talked about: - Why you need to focus on your story before you start your business - Understanding which stories are worth telling and how to uncover your own story - How the most painful experiences can be the catalyst for something great - How women adapt their stories and how our stories change throughout our lives - We talk about mind goblins! - Why we need to stop waiting and going with the flow Excitingly, she also demonstrates an exercise to uncover your story and puts me in the hot seat! https://makeyourstorymatter.co.uk/a-successful-about-me-page/ WEBSITE: Make Your Story Matter .co.uk FACEBOOK: The Legend Collective INSTAGRAM: the.legend.maker

This week I spoke to Ruth Kudzi, qualified coach, business mentor and best selling author all about 'How to get your first client'.  When most of us start our own companies we have great ideas about how we will set up our website and all the customers will come to us and when that doesn't happen it can be really disheartening and offputting.  Whether you are a service or product based company getting your first client is usually the biggest focus and the most profound breakthrough (but it doesn't happen overnight).  Ruth and I talk about the steps to take to secure that first client and start thinking about consistent income after that.

Are all the answers to your problems, as easy as learning to love yourself? Emily and I talk in this episode how what it always comes back to is self-love. We focused on understanding how self-love is different from self-care,   how to know if you really love yourself (something I think we all need to reconsider), turning up your intuition, debunking the myth of being busy is a good thing and how practising self-love can help you thrive. 

This week I am sharing a mind-blowing conversation with Lucy Rowett, sexologist and sex, intimacy and relationship coach, over on the podcast.⁠ ⁠ Lucy and I talked openly about the conditioning women receive growing up around their sexuality, society's impact on body image, overcoming shame and feeling comfortable in our sexuality, how menstruation affects us, sexual self-development and creating a pleasure self-care routine. ⁠ ⁠ My particular favourite though was talking sex after vaginal birth and having to rediscover what works for you all over again. Huge light bulb moment

This week I spoke to Celeste Stewart, Director of Bold Curiosity & a consultant in the leadership development space focused on self-leadership, on how women too can play big in their lives and businesses.  Celeste and I talk about unleashing your inner power, identifying your calling, the good girl syndrome and how it limits you, recognising the inner critic and what to do about it, unhooking yourself from the criticism and praise of others and what to do if you are a serial achiever (but never feel qualified enough or take action).  Celeste shares lots of exercises to get you taking those first steps in playing big.

This one is going to make you rethink the way you do EVERYTHING! ⁠ https://www.thesacredwomb.com/menstrual-cycle-tracker/ https://www.thesacredwomb.com/medicine-woman-training/ https://www.thesacredwomb.com/events/
