[9:26] “If you only want your husband 2 weeks out of the month, it’s your hormones, not your husband.” [9:53] How progesterone affects women [10:30] Menopause symptoms are starting almost 10 years earlier than they traditionally have in the past. [11:17] Reduction in progesterone and estrogen also affect brain health. Your brain needs these neurochemicals to function well. At the same time, our brain’s ability to use glucose decreases. [12:05] Men produce 6 times more estrogen in their brain than women. [12:37] We need to switch our brain’s use of fuel from glucose to something different. [13:36] The medications commonly used to help women deal with symptoms of decreasing hormones increase the risk for Alzheimer’s. [13:49] So what the heck do we do? It takes more than hormones to fix hormones. [18:20] Menopause is mandatory; suffering is optional. [18:47] How the Keto-Green Diet helps [20:04] We need to be in an alkaline state versus acidic, which comes from low-carb greens. [21:16] Activities like meditation that decrease cortisol and increase oxytocin are important. [22:30] Even if you have a perfect diet, you can still have high blood sugar issues caused by stress. [24:04] Make sure to find the stress relief practice that works best for you; yoga or meditation isn’t everyone’s thing. [26:30] Listener Diana questioned what to do when stress sabotages what would otherwise be a really good diet. JJ discusses some ideas to help handle these nasty surprises.   Past podcasts with Dr. Anna Cabeca: Managing Menopause #93 Restoring Women’s Hormonal Health #211   Mentioned in this episode:  Dr. Anna Keto-pH Test Strips Nick Ortner’s Tapping Solution Ziva Meditation by Emily Fletcher Xiser Subscribe to the JJ Virgin Lifestyle Show Become part of JJ’s community JJ Virgin Official Facebook page JJ Virgin on Instagram JJ Virgin on YouTube

Instagram strategy is different at every follower level. What works for someone with 100,000 followers won’t necessarily work the same for someone with 1,000 followers. In this episode, I’m sharing Instagram strategy for the business owners who are NEWER to the follower game — with less than 1,000 followers, specifically. If that’s not you, no worries! You’ll still be able to glean a lot from this episode all about Instagram strategy!   I’m talking specifically about how to do things that will lead to book clients and make sales on Instagram, not just gain a following for the heck of it. I want you to have a following that CONVERTS. And by converts, I mean not just a pretty number, but people that are actually buying from you. I don't have a ton of IG followers, but Instagram still a huge lead generator for my business. With solid strategy, you can book clients on IG at any follower level. I’m going to teach you how!   Links Mentioned in Episode: - Get my FREE No Fuss Instagram Planning Guide - Try out Planoly to plan your Instagram content - Follow along with Elizabeth on Instagram - Get the show notes for this episode - Visit Elizabeth’s website   Episode Highlights: - What to do when you feel “stupid” because no one is watching your stories or responding to anything you share - How to create the perfect call to action for your posts - Super solid Instagram story tips to help you create better content - A super incredible tip for responding to DMs from my friend Maghon at All She Wrote Notes - Why it will hurt your sales when you choose not to write people back - How to create a mix of selling and giving on your Instagram account - Ideas for what to share on Instagram stories and on posts - The tool I use to plan my Instagram content - How to make a lasting connection with your audience on Instagram - Tips for optimizing your Instagram stories effectiveness without the “swipe up” feature - How to book clients through hashtags

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a steady stream of new clients flowing into your business each month? Well, it’s the opposite for most service professionals who have to work really hard to get a few key clients. My guest on episode 91 of Amplify Your Success Podcast shares how to use the “Eavesdrop Effect” to engage your best potential clients – ultimately tripling your sales of perfect fit clients. This episode is full of actionable advice for anyone who struggles with consistent lead generation, or would like more of their ideal clients who are willing to pay your best rates! Key Takeaways What the "Eavesdrop Effect” is and how it’s a key ingredient for creating a consistent flow of leads into your business. The three questions every prospect is unconsciously asking themselves (so when you answer them right, they are more likely to buy from you!) An often-misunderstood approach to building trust and rapport (Dov shares why getting this right is so important!) A surprising piece of advice that even I’d never heard before (think, when its appropriate to recommend your competition.) Plus Dov gives an actionable tip any coach, entrepreneur or small business owner can use right away to start connecting with more ideal clients. About the Guest Dov Gordon helps consultant/coaches get ideal clients. Consistently. There are millions and millions of consultant, coaches and professional service firm owners who are really good at what they do. But they're not charismatic guru types. And they never want to be. They LOVE their work. And all they want is a consistent flow of great clients. Clients who value their expertise, AND who value who they are as people. And pay them well for it. Dov and his small team take a tactic-agnostic approach. They help you build a strong strategic foundation and to apply to it to build a simple, client-getting system that is best for YOU.

Every small business owner has prospects ready to make the decision to hire you or purchase your products but way too often they get confused, and avoid making a purchase. The solution? Create a decision journey to help them make the best decision for them! On episode 90 of Amplify Your Success Podcast I’m joined by The Hero Method founder Kathryn Gillett to share what a decision journey is and how creating one for your sales and marketing processes can help you close sales faster. Key Takeaways How Kathryn uncovered The Hero Method through her training in psychology and anthropology How to use a The Decision Journey to double your revenue and increase your ideal client enrollments The difference between the good ol' Sales Funnel and The Decision Journey (and why the decision journey works faster!) Plus I get Kathryn to give us some practical advice on the top three entrepreneur “sales stuck points”   About the Guest: Kathryn Gillett is the creator of The HERO Method, and author of two best-selling books on the subject. She has degrees in psychology and anthropology, 30 years' experience in marketing, and 25 years researching related fields. It was based on those years of research and experience that she created The HERO Method, a true paradigm shift that turns 180-degrees away from what we consider "best practices" in marketing communications today. And in doing so, The HERO Method has proven to double response, revenue, and year-over-year growth (that's measurable results — not just 'ball-park hype'). Rather than creating content that shouts out how great a company’s solution is… The HERO Method is about creating authentic, human connections with audiences. Kathryn has brought The HERO Method to global corporations like Microsoft, Amazon, and Dell to great effect. And now she's bringing The HERO Method to the small businesses world with on-line training programs that teach entrepreneurs all the inside secrets of this shift in marketing.

Storytelling can bring your brand to life – and create deep trust and rapport with potential clients. There is an art to uncovering your compelling business story and this week’s guest, Park Howell, has mastered this art on episode 88 of Amplify Your Success Podcast. From rebounding out of the flailing advertising marketplace to launching a successful branding company and landing a coveted TedX talk, Park shows us how to craft a powerful story that will accelerate new business. Key Takeaways How Park rebounded from an industry that was falling apart. Why "Storytelling" in your brand story can set you apart from the competition. Park walks Melanie through a cool process to pull out our Brand Story The steps to uncovering a clear, compelling story that actually will simplify your life (and your marketing efforts!) How to spot – and overcome – the most common challenges to uncovering YOUR brand story. About the Guest Park Howell has been in the advertising and branding world for 35 years, but in 2006 it all stopped working. Technology had leveled the playing field. Brands used to own the influence of mass media, but the masses had become the media and they own your brand story. So park pivoted away from 20 years of running his own ad agency to focus on the answer of how to rise above the noise of the Attention Deficit Disorder economy and actually be heard and understood. His antidote is an anecdote. Now, Park consults, teaches, coaches and speaks around the world helping leaders of purpose-driven brands clarify their stories to amplify their impact and simplify their lives.   Connect with Park Howell: Website LinkedIn Facebook Twitter Mentioned In this Episode: Get the FREE eBook "The 5 Stages of Grief in Your Business Storytelling" with story exercises to help you overcome them.
