Podcast appearances and mentions of gena shingle jaffe

If you have a family or are thinking about starting a family, you want to stop what you're doing right now or block off 53 minutes on your schedule as soon as possible.     On this episode of The Queer Profits Podcast™, Diane Conklin talks with Gena Shingle Jaffe about fertility, the complexities of starting and growing families as queer people, and more. There was so much Gena, who is an attorney, and her wife Jordana had to learn, the hard way, about this process while having their two children. She shares so much in this episode...to include free resources for you so you have a clear path to parenthood and protecting your family. The changes in the laws don't do enough for our families yet!  

If you’re in the online space there’s a good chance you’ve heard about GDPR, but what exactly is it and what do we have to do to comply to the new regulations? In this episode, My friend Gena Shingle Jaffe is going to give us her expertise as a lawyer to break it all down for us. Please note that today’s episode is legal information, not legal advice, but GDPR is something that we need to be aware of and take action on, and this episode will help you do just that!

“When you leave corporate you have to be careful that you don’t bring the lifestyle you used to lead into the lifestyle you are about to lead. There is hustle, grit and reinvestment. If you keep spending money like you did before you will run out of it.” Gena was working in a law firm in New York City and making good money, but she was unhappy. She started meeting a lot of people in the coaching industry who needed help but couldn’t afford or want to work with a law firm. While she was still at her law firm she started coming up with different ideas. She started brain storming different packages she could offer. She hired a web designer and had a website created. The website was ready the day she left her corporate job. Gena almost had to file bankruptcy the first year because of her spending. She was making money; she just wasn’t making smart choices and investments. She was able to turn that around. Gena created a legal program four months into her business that made over $20,000 in its launch. The monetary issues came from investing in too many things. She was hiring coaches, traveling the world, going to workshops, conferences and events and buying different courses. She had a lot of great content but no time to implement it because she was always doing something else. The biggest lesson Gena learned in her first year of business was invest in one thing, commit to it, complete it, implement everything you learn and then move on to the next thing. When people start a business the first thing they think about is making money. They don’t think about protecting that money and that’s where the legal comes in. The legal is there to protect your business and your brand, your income and your assets both personally and professionally. Gena tries to make law less scary, more approachable and easier for people to understand. Three website documents it’s important to have at any stage of business. A website disclaimer: people come on your website and read different articles and it’s important that they understand the role you are taking, who you are and who you are not. I’m not a medical professional, I’m not an accountant, I’m not a therapist etc. If you aren’t a professional you want to tell them that because if you don’t and something happens to that person you could get in trouble. Privacy policy: This is legally required in several states. But when you have an online business you are technically marketing to every single person in the world. The privacy policy says I won’t sell any of your information or spam you. Terms and conditions: this protects the content on your website. When people come on your website you are saying your material is yours and they can’t use it. How to contact Gena Gena and her wife have a Facebook group for women entrepreneurs called Gena and Jordanna Your Magical Business. Gena has a lot of freebies on her website www.genashingle.com/sign-up. Her website also lists all the things she does.
