Claire Gallagher is a digital marketing strategist who helps coaches and creatives design the future of their business and the strategy to get there.

In episode 40, I'm giving my top ten tips about simplifying your business processes to amplify and laser focus on the areas that you're needed the most in your business. You can't be everywhere all the time, no matter how you try.  In this world full of noise and distraction, it can be quite easy to get lost in the complexities of business. I call this the ‘shiny object syndrome' – feeling that we have to have all the spangly bells and whistles going on in our businesses, making things more complicated and busier than they need to be. Unfortunately, this can lead to overwhelm and exhaustion for us female entrepreneurs, trying to do all the things all the time, running our businesses and doing all the admin, marketing, sales and branding – but with that workload we are only half heartedly completing them and constantly multitasking, which eventually leads to burn out. My top ten tips will help you get clarity and focus on what to simplify in your business before you get sucked into the 'shiny object syndrome' and complicate your processes.  I also mentioned a book during the podcast to help with website tweaks called 'Making Your Website Work' by Gill Andrews - you can find it on her website: https://gillandrews.com/book-making-your-website-work/ - it's a great resource for all things website copy and design, I'd highly recommend it!   If you like the podcast I'd love if you could review it on Apple podcasts to help it reach more women in business who need some Big Sister Support!

In todays podcast I'm taking a look at the 6-figure culture in our online world (particularly in the coaching world) and how it both inspires and pressures business owners to reach for it.  As a business coach, it irritates me no end to see how the 6-figure hustle culture gives the impression that a 6-figure business is 'easy to attain with a simple 10 step coaching programme' blah blah blah.  I take a look at the realities of reaching the heights of a 6-figure business hailed by those experts and gurus as the holy grail of business and look at some questions to ask yourself and other important factors to consider when you are aiming high on the monetary ladder.  It is amazing to see more women in business reaching their financial goals and making the impact they want, but the pressures to achieve can sometimes outweigh the bottom line.  If you like the podcast I'd love if you could review it on Apple podcasts to help it reach more women in business who need some Big Sister Support!

In the latest episode, I'm picking the brains of management accountant Carmel Seery on ways that female entrepreneurs can focus on the numbers and make profit in their businesses. Carmel spent over 20 years as a management accountant in many different industries, and saw first hand how easy it was for entrepreneurs to get caught up with their passions and ideas and not know if they were making any money.

This podcast episode is all about helping you manage those mindset blocks, triggers and sabotaging behaviours and habits to create a mindset overhaul. This work is ongoing, especially when starting or building a business - that kind of endeavour is often seen as taking a risk. Your inner critic will throw up all sorts of triggering thoughts and mindset blocks to keep you playing small and prevent progress too far outside your comfort zone. This episode will look at ways to manage those unique behaviours and habits that can blindside you on a daily basis to prevent you making the impact you want.  I mentioned a few things in this podcast as reference to help you overcome and manage these behaviours including: 1. Make it Stick Habit School by Sarah von Bargen: a great course to help manage sabotaging habits in life and business (https://school.yesandyes.org/p/habitsdiy) 2. Tapping/EFT: Brad Yates (https://tapwithbrad.mykajabi.com/) and Marie Houlden (https://mariehoulden.com/) - both are experts in Tapping and Emotional Freedom Technique (a tool that's useful to manage negative self talk).   If you like the podcast I'd love if you could review it on Apple podcasts to help it reach more female entrepreneurs who need the support!
