Welcome to the Catalyst Conversations podcast, I’m your host Jennifer Maggiore.  For some of us, being in business is like eating glass every day, but that’s what it’s like being in business, right? Have you ever felt like maybe you just aren’t cut out to cope with the emotional demands of being an entrepreneur? Or if you can be successful AND spiritual? Or maybe you’ve been told that you’re “too sensitive” to hack it in business.  Well get ready, because you’re probably actually “highly sensitive” – a highly sensitive entrepreneur that is!  In this episode I talk with Heather Dominick - a woman who is impressively successful, and highly spiritual I might add.  She’s appeared on Lifetime Television and was published in several books including Stepping Stones to Success alongside Deepak Chopra. She’s been recognized with the 2015 Best of Manhattan Coaching Award and she's the creator of the 2014 Stevie Award winning virtual event A Course In Business Miracles®: 21-Day Discovery Series that attracted close to 6,000 registrants from around the world. Heather is also the founder and leader of the Highly Sensitive Entrepreneur® movement. She helps the 20% of us who are born “highly sensitive” to make sense of our feelings, strong intuition, empathy, and deep thoughts, and feelings when it comes to self-employment. She has helped thousands of clients create solid, sustainable, high level financial success building on the personality traits they once thought of as weaknesses.  She tells us about the coping mechanisms HSEs use – a cycle or fear, pushing and or hiding, and soothing that leaves us mentally, physically, spiritually, and financially drained. She also explains some of the strengths HSEs have, and how they’re different from entrepreneurs who are not highly sensitive. If any of this resonates listen in because you, like me, may be a Highly Sensitive Entrepreneur.

Is podcast marketing right for your business? How much does it cost, and is it hard to get started? Our guest, Shannon Hernandez (also knows as The Shan Man) is a 19 year radio veteran with 18 of his years spent with Arizona rock station, 98 KUPD.He's had the opportunity to interview some of the biggest names in the rock industry like Ivan Mood of Five Finger Death Punch, Phil Labonte of All That Remains… to Ben Anderson of Nothing More, David Ellefson of Megadeth and many more.Shannon's biggest passion is helping content creators build podcasts that make a sonic impact for listeners through sound design, branding/imaging and storytelling. He currently holds down his normal 7-midnight shift for 98 KUPD and produces podcasts like Carey Peña Reports and the Catalyst Conversations. You can also catch him on his YouTube channel and podcast, The Swing Shift Side Hustle.I became a devoted fan of Shannon and his remarkable work in the world 5 years ago when I had a live video show on Google Hangouts. He has helped many of us podcasters and broadcasters succeed in creating compelling content. With a warm, welcoming ability to share his deep knowledge and love of audio and visual content creation with folks … Shannon has built a huge following everywhere he glows. He has been instrumental in my own success as a podcast and video host – and I know you’ll love his view of the world as much as I do!Shannon shares the strategy and tactics needed to create and build a successful podcast, how a podcast can be your "pillar content" strategy, and how affordable this strategy is to build brand awareness.Here is a fave quote from our conversation:"A key fundamental strategy as a business owner is you have to take time to relax and you have to recharge because burning the candle at both ends doesn't give you results all of the time. In fact, it stifles you, so you have to learn that maybe taking that day off to go to the Spring Training game is good for you and your business.Here is a link to the book Shannon mentioned, Extreme Ownership:https://www.amazon.com/Extreme-Ownership-U-S-Navy-SEALs/dp/B015TM0RM4/Here is a SlideShare for Gary Vee's Pillar Content Strategy:https://www.slideshare.net/vaynerchuk/the-garyvee-content-model-107343659Here are the links to follow and connect with Shannon on Social Media:YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/shannonhernandezFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/theshanmanonlineInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/shannonjhernandezTwitter: http:/www.twitter.com/theshanmanWebsite: http://www.theshanman.comFree Downloads:Essential Podcast Equipment Guidehttp://www.theshanman.com/quickstart-guide-to-podcastingTop 3 Tips To Monetize a Podcasthttps://www.theshanman.com/6-clever-strategies-to-monetize-your-podcastPaid Product Links - use the discount code Startup28 at checkout (thanks Shannon!!):Podcast To-Do Checklisthttp://www.theshanman.com/podcast-to-do-checklist-c6 Clever Ways To Monetize Your Podcast http://www.theshanman.com/Monetizing-Your-Podcast-EBookBadass Podcasting (Edit Like A Pro)https://www.theshanman.com/store/LPDmMcbsWatch Shannon's sister, Wendy Hernandez on her YouTube Channel - Command the Courtroom:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3v2tvsfJxXJSVs7GZedIeg/featuredIf you need startup mentoring – please visit my website, http://andelyons.com where you’ll find all the ways I can add value to your startup journey: strategy calls, pitch deck and one page business snapshot coaching, WBENC application support for women business owners - I’d be honored to mentor you through whatever you’re going through – so please don’t hesitate to reach out.If you’d like to receive an alert whenever I post a new episode, please follow me on Spreaker Stitcher or Google Podcasts… and let’s connect on social media!Listeners - thank you so much for tuning in - I am genuinely grateful for your time and presence.

Victoria Repka-Geller, is a CMO and career and transformational coach with over 20 years experience in Advertising and Marketing. She brings an educated perspective that is rare and invaluable among today’s personal development coaches in that she couples her expertise, passion, and talent with real work-life experience. She has been featured in the NYTimes People on the Move Series, WSJ’s The High Cost of Avoiding Conflict at Work and Barbara Stanny-Huson’s Sacred Success (one of my favorite books!). In this episode of Catalyst Conversations, we talk about: + surviving in the male-dominated, at times dehumanizing, advertising industry where it was the norm to work 80-90 hours a week, despite being a single mom. + how women, especially, must overcome second-guessing themselves and automatically going to “how do I change me?” when there is a problem at work. + how we fool ourselves with “fake control” thinking we can (and should) fix everything, and the myth that being “too sensitive” is a bad thing. + helping her clients to recognize and deal with severe burnout, and how men and women differ with inner dialogue and when it comes to dealing with pressure. + the ways fear protects us while also holding us back, and how to leave those stories behind.

I am so excited to bring you Lesley Bohm today. She is a super talented photographer that I met while I was at a conference in Los Angeles. Her pictures are just incredible. She has worked with celebrities, actors, actresses, sports figures, entrepreneurs, and she really knows how to bring that personal touch out of a photograph. In this interview, we have some great conversations about how she got started. She had some issues with her mom that caused her to leave when she was in high school. She moved from Canada to Los Angeles—not just to another city or another state—but another country with $800 in her pocket. She shares some of the challenges and some of the lessons learned as she grew her business into this renowned photographer. We also talk about how important your headshots are. These days, somebody comes to your website or your social media and you have seconds—you have just seconds, take that in for just a minute—you have seconds to invite somebody in through that imagery to decide if they want to read the copy on your website, if what you have to offer is what they’re looking for, if you are the kind of person that they want to get to know. No pressure. Actually, it’s a lot of pressure to get those headshots right. She gives us her best tips for finding a great photographer, how to get great headshots, and she’s got a special offer for our listeners. If you reach out to Lesley and you let her know that you heard her here on Jenn’s podcast, Catalyst Conversations, she’s got a special step-in rate, kind of a mini session, if you will. She’s amazing. If you get the opportunity to get on this women’s calendar, you should absolutely do it, you won’t regret it.
