Welcome to a new season of STC! Today's conversation is different from the typical STC session, as it was inspired by a thread created in the STC community about healthcare providers dismissing legitimate medical concerns. This situation is one that you might encounter personally or with your clients, so I hope you'll find our conversation helpful and informative. Join us! Our Featured Guest Danielle Hughes, MA, LPC Danielle Hughes is in private practice in Loveland, CO. Danielle shared her perspective in the STC community as someone with a chronic illness who struggled for 12 years to get a proper diagnosis. She interacted with several healthcare providers who didn't believe that her physical issues could be attributed to anything other than stress and trauma. It's been quite a journey for Danielle, who was just recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that truly affects her energy levels on a daily basis. In today's session, Danielle shares her story and the challenges she has overcome with the fortitude to keep going when doctors attributed her problems to psychological issues. We also dive deep into practical questions you can ask in sessions with clients who have chronic illnesses and related psychological concerns. Find Danielle Hughes on Facebook and Instagram, @daniellehughesLPC You'll Learn: ●     About Danielle's health journey that began with joint pain and fatigue in college ●     How she was dismissed by the medical community as her physical concerns were attributed to stress for 12 years ●     How Danielle found the fortitude to keep pushing forward with multiple doctors and specialists to get a diagnosis of an autoimmune disease ●     About the route Danielle took with her PCP, the VA system, and multiple specialists ●     Danielle's advice for clinicians dealing with clients with physical issues in addition to psychological concerns ●     Why it's important to believe the client and not relate everything to trauma or anxiety ●     How clinicians can be most helpful by asking questions and being supportive to understand the whole of the client's life ●     Why we should respond with compassion and curiosity when we are tempted to assume there's nothing wrong with someone who appears “fine” ●     About a typical day/week for Danielle, a clinician in private practice with a chronic autoimmune disease ●     How Danielle deals with days when she struggles to function as a clinician Today's Sponsor:https://sellingthecouch.com/zynnyme ( Zynnyme) Zynnyme was founded in 2010 by therapists and private practice owners, Kelly Higdon and Miranda Palmer.

Today’s episode is another powerful one in my throwback series which will be running over the coming weeks while I take some time to work on my writing. As I’ve mentioned before, I absolutely love throwbacks because they give us all the chance to reflect and see if we have been applying the information and strategies offered in these episodes, and to determine what we may need to do differently or where we may need to take more action in these areas. So once again, whether you’ve heard them before, or whether this is your first time, you are going to get something valuable out of these episodes, which just happen to be some of my favorites, so get your notepad ready and prepare yourself to soak up the knowledge and wisdom that is coming your way. This particular episode features Danielle Liss, a lawyer based in Las Vegas who specializes in streamlining every conceivable legal hurdle for small business owners. To give you an idea of her impressive resume, she’s the founder and CEO of Businessese (which specializes in DIY legal templates), the owner of Liss Legal, the full-time general counsel for an eight figure digital health and fitness company, and, to boot, she’s been named one of the top lawyers in Las Vegas for the last two years. Danielle has also struggled with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) for a very long time, and, after finally receiving treatment for her condition, she now advocates for pushing the conversation about mental health into the open so everybody can become more comfortable with it. In fact, it was while I was coaching Danielle that she chose to address her OCD and not settle for what life and her mind had thrown her way. In this interview, Danielle discusses her history with this condition, explains why sufferers of mental illness should be open to medication and why it’s nothing to be ashamed of, and examines how we can confuse mental illness for some essential part of who we are. By the end of this interview, I hope that her story inspires you and you feel empowered enough to take action in your own life if you, yourself, are struggling. As always, if there is a topic you would like me to discuss or a guest to interview on the podcast, please feel free to contact me at pr@kellytravis.net - I would love to hear from you!   The Finer Details of This Episode: - Danielle discusses books and explains why she prefers to listen to non-fiction rather than read it. - How Danielle came to work with me and identify some of the compulsions that were adding to the stress in her life. - What it’s like to live with negative and disturbing intrusive thoughts. - Exploring the fear that treating mental illness can impede some unique aspect of your personality. - Why it’s important to overcome a fear of psychiatric medication, especially if mental illness is affecting your life on a day-to-day basis. - Perhaps the most essential step: finding some outlet, be it a professional or a friend or even a journal, that will help you collate your thoughts. - Which questions you SHOULD and SHOULDN’T ask someone struggling with OCD. - If you don’t have a mental illness, what terms should you use to describe your quirks that don’t co-opt the struggles of those who do deal with them? - TAKE ACTION: if you have thoughts or feelings on this discussion, or your own experiences with mental health that you’re willing to open up about, please share your response to this episode on social media! Quotes: “A piece of me was extremely happy that there was a name for this.” “It’s been a really interesting period of reflection as I have determined what does actually make me succeed.” “If you are struggling, go to a professional, talk to them.” “I am all for what works, but don’t deny it just because it’s dispensed by a pharmacist.” “You’ve gotta have that one person you can break the ice with.” “This diagnosis is a part of me, it’s not all of me.”   Show Links: Liss Legal - https://www.lisslegal.com/ Businessese homepage - https://www.businessese.com/ BetterHelp Professional Counseling - https://www.betterhelp.com/ Talkspace Online Therapy - https://www.talkspace.com/ Kelly’s homepage -  http://www.kellytravis.net

Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life. Who hasn’t heard of this tagline yet? Cheesy as it sounds, yet Danielle found this piece of advice ring true.   From being a subject matter expert in the military to becoming a work from home mom, Danielle has been struggling to regain her lost identity since leaving the military. Yet her drive to find the light that sparks inspiration and motivation in her has unlocked the door to finding the job that truly defines who she is, fell in love with and is passionate about.   In today’s episode of the Expert(ish) Podcast, our guest, Danielle Popoff will speak about how she transitioned from the military. As a military spouse and a work from home mom, she will share how she landed on her dream job and restored her sense of self.   In This Episode 1:38 - One of the biggest stressors in getting out of the military   5:23 – How she regained her lost identity after transitioning out of the military   9:05 - Something he learned in dealing with civilians   14:10 - The challenges of being a military wife   19:47 - How Danielle got into crafting kiddie clips   25:13 - One of the lessons she learned from the military   32:26 - Her advice to anyone getting out of the military   39:08 - The advantage of having a network   Favorite Quotes "You have to accept change, and you have to be willing to change and how you've always done it isn't necessarily the right way. It's not wrong, but there's a better way to do it. Being willing to hear people out when two great people can come together and talk about how different they do things, that's when you're going to learn what somebody else has to say. And you don't have to take all of it, but you can take pieces of it and improve upon what you already have gotten."   "I'll always have that piece of like who I was, but it's just who I am today. And that's great. We're all meant to move on to find new things in life"   "I love my job and I never thought I would be in the position that I'm in love with the job so much."   "One thing I think the military really taught me was be flexible and be adaptable."   "The one biggest thing I can give to anybody getting out of the military is don't settle and just keep finding your why.  Keep finding what drives you. What motivates you. What lights a spark under you. And just when you find it, you get to run with it. You can't give up. Don't give up on yourself and just keep pushing. And the harder you work, the people will notice and people like to reward that and you know, you'll find it."   "Use your resources. Talk to people. Network. Don't be afraid to ask."   "That's when you know you've made it when people are willing to share for free. When people are spreading the business for free and it doesn't feel like you're talking about a business because that person is passionate. They like you. They like what you're doing. They like your mission. The goal is   to have a why that people are willing to help you spread."   "Take that leap. Don't be afraid. It's scary. But it's so worth it. You just gotta put yourself out there. Keep trying. Don't let a bad day ruin everything."   "You have to know your worth. Know what you're putting into it and what you were putting into something is good enough and you're willing to put in that effort, it's going to go somewhere."   Connect with Expert(ish) Podcast Host JAY JOHNSON   Call (858) 925- 4536 Website LinkedIn Facebook Instagram   Listen to more episodes of the Expert(ish) Podcast iTune Spotify

Listen to Danielle as she shares her journey with Geordie.  What You’ll Learn How Danielle ventured into teaching English as a second language What was Danielle’s original solution for easing the feedback generation process for her students? What was FeedBackPanda doing in the beginning?  When and how did Danielle realize that an automated solution could be effective? How long did it take Danielle and her co-founder to build the prototype? How Danielle and her partner rolled out the solution to potential customers Why you should determine where your potential customers hang out What made FeedBackPanda unique? What channel did Danielle and her team use to grow? How Daniella’s product moved from 0-55,000 What inbound strategy did Daniella and her team use to boost the product? In this Episode Teaching English as a second language can be a difficult task and this was the case with Danielle. Being part of the teaching team helped her identify the problems that she and her colleagues were facing. She would later pitch her idea to her boyfriend, a software engineer, and together they came up with the FeedBackPanda idea. Danielle gives Geordie brief details about her background.  Danielle explains the events that pushed her into inventing the FeedBackPanda idea. She says she taught in one-on-one classes, and after each class, they had to submit a short report about each lesson. Seeing that all she did was gig work, there were no guaranteed bookings, and she had to handle all her marketing tasks. It was too much work, and Danielle wanted a solution that could help her develop her career, improve her ratings, and save time. Listen to the podcast to understand how difficult Danielle’s tasks were before she finally came up with the solution. She says that generating feedback was taking up lots of her time, and she had to do something about it. Find out what she did to counter this challenge.  While there were competitors already, Danielle and her co-founder worked hard to ensure that their platform was unique to attract more bookings. At some point, Geordie gives a practical example of the importance of reviews, and you cannot afford this, especially if you are an entrepreneur. Danielle says she wanted to determine whether the system would work before selling it to other teachers. According to Danielle, many of her colleagues in the marketing industry were not ready to be entrepreneurs. Together with her co-founder, they used that as a marketing strategy to show the teachers that they were already entrepreneurs. She sought to demonstrate to the teachers the importance of having proper tools that could ease their job. Danielle gives a detailed explanation of the marketing strategy they used. Listen to the podcast to find out. When the product was finally ready for roll-out, Danielle set out to find potential customers. Find out how a question posted on a Facebook group presented her with an opportunity to introduce her product to the group members. Did anybody sign up for the product from that post? Find out from the podcast. Danielle says that even after three months of creating the product, she was not convinced that it was ready. She also felt that they needed to let potential customers use the product first and get feedback before finally launching it in the market. When Danielle finally made the product available to teachers, she received numerous ideas on how to improve it and even make it community-based. Listen to the podcast to figure out some other excellent ideas that the teachers had. Danielle also talks about a template database system and how it worked. When Danielle launched her product, there were numerous companies they could have chosen to integrate with. However, they opted to work with companies that wanted to work with American teachers. She explains this strategy in-depth, and you can get all the details from the podcast. Danielle narrates her 0-55,000 MRR story, which you should listen to. While FeedBackPanda was thriving, Danielle sold it. She explains why in this podcast. Danielle admits that while she went through a moment of loss after selling the business, she does not regret her decision.  Resources Danielle Simpson Twitter Danielle Simpson LinkedIn FeedBackPanda Danielle Simpson Website Arvid Kahl Zero to Sold

Ownership over her excuses, her thoughts, her habits, and her mindset. Her approach to holistic health goes beyond personal training. She is a habit changer and understands first-hand that deep-rooted change comes when you connect with your true "why."

Danielle Tripp is our guest for this episode with special co-host Ben Dawson coming in as well.  Danielle is a member of the Winsome Racing team with Ben and has quickly progressed from starting our as a car girl who went on a racing experience event, started driving in HPDE events to become a racing instructor and raced in her first race in 2019.  It was great to catch up with Danielle and see how she progressed and where she wants to go.  We have no doubt she will get there, and quickly.  As a fellow Spec E46 (to be) racer, we appreciate the time and dedication it takes to build one of these on your own.   “Hold On Kids, Mom’s Driving!!!”   In addition, we also cover how to prepare for driving on a new (to you) racetrack.  We each have your own personal methods and present several alternatives that you may want to try.    You can follow Danielle on Facebook at:  Danielle Tripp or by following Winsome Racing.  She is also on Instagram @dtrippnurseracer   Finally, in our Dominating with Dawson we go over how to introduce a new driver into racing, or more properly stated a few ways not to do it.  Everything can be an example, some are examples of things to do, some are things not to do.    We hope you enjoy this episode!   Best regards,   Vicki, Jennifer, Alan, and Bill Hosts of the Garage Heroes In Training Podcast and Garage Heroes In Training racing team drivers   Highlights from this episode include:   1)  We get into her certifications of bad ass-ery, both local and global. 2)  How she started and how she first met Ben at the track and learned to be fast from him.  3)  Me first hear about Banana Sandwich Mike.  Still looking for him.  4)  She drives an E46 BMW called “Peaches” (story included) and a Mustang named “Jesse”.  How the names came to be is entertaining. 5)  How the cheapest of Hot Wheels car has led to the decimation of many family finances on racing cars. 6)  How Danielle was the impetus to her husband Jason starting to enjoy racing on track as well as the mechanical aspects of the sport. 7)  How the cash flow out for attending a track event may be cheaper than the cost of speed on a public road.  8)  Ben foolishly promises to drive with us at the Thunderhill 25 in our Spec E46 if its ever finished.  Its recorded for all time. 9)  Bill cannot help but make comparison of their Winsome Racing team to our Lose Some racing team.  It is really just way too easy. 10)  Jennifer and Danielle bond over working on cars and how it compares to working on human bodies.  We are even more worried about going to a doctor now, lol, especially since Vicki agreed. 11)  Ben does his best impression of Debbie Downer from SNL.  Cue the sad trombones. 12)  We discuss the potential issues with being a female at a racetrack, which so far has been exacerbated in our experiences.  13)  The group discussion on prepping for a new track is helpful in showing several different things that you can do to be ready before you even arrive in the paddock.  We also discuss ways to improve once you are on track as well.  Many great ways to increase your enjoyment, especially early in the day/weekend. 14)  Outdoorsy and RVShare make their usual appearance on the podcast.  They should really sponsor us.  Or maybe just give a free rental every now and then. 15)  Bill over-preps and shares an example below in a link for one track.  Please let us know what you do, especially if it is different or better.  We are always looking to improve. 16)  We do not support nor recommend stealing your parent’s car when you are underage, in spite of the fun we had during this episode. 17)  Vicki is introduced to left foot braking for the first time.  Mind >>> blown.  It apparently has never come up so far.  Or maybe it has, lol. 18)  Bill recommends the recent Top Gear episode segment with the cars going to the golf driving range.  One of the best segments ever. 19)  Jennifer starts the South Dakota RV story but valiantly tries to get out without the details.  Anyone want to hear more?  Please let us know. 20)  It looks like Reed will be trading cars with Danielle at an upcoming event. 21)  Ben makes it very clear his feeling on new car nannies.  Not a fan, especially on the track.

Danielle Fishel is the beloved star of the 90s sitcom Boy Meets World, and successful model, director, and author.   Listen to this episode and learn:   How Danielle’s childhood dreams became a reality and what she learned about herself from the characters she played.   About the accomplishments Danielle is most proud of, including going to college later in life to finish her degree.   About the miracles Danielle and her family experienced during her son’s health journey and time in the hospital.   Why Danielle believes it is so important to live in the moment.   Who Danielle looks up to most in the entertainment industry.  

The biotech industry is dominated by highly educated and skilled professionals with a background in science. This poses an entry barrier for some but not for Danielle Silva. Despite her economics background, she was able to bootstrap her startup in the biotech industry at 22 years old and has been on an impressive upward trajectory ever since.    Danielle Silva is the Assistant Vice President of Capital Advisors Group where she focuses on business development efforts for life science and tech companies in New England and the Mid Atlantic.  Previously, Danielle led Silicon Valley Bank Analytics’ national life science business development. She is one of the founders of Life Science Nation where she helps life science companies raise capital, and she is a board member of The Deal Mak(her)s, an educational and networking group for women involved in deal-making.  She received her BA in Economics and Policy Studies from Syracuse University.  What You’ll Hear On This Episode of When Science Speaks Danielle Silva talks about how she built Life Science Nation at 22 and gives an overview of the work they do How Danielle managed impostor syndrome as a young founder Danielle talks about the challenges she faced as a woman executive in a biotech startup and how she overcame them Danielle talks about The Deal Mak(her)s and what they do Communication strategies and techniques for early-stage founders  Danielle discusses some tips on how to break into the biotech space and how willing members of the community are to help each other Connect with Danielle Silva The Deal Mak(her)s Life Science Nation Danielle Silva on LinkedIn  Managing Impostor Syndrome  When shifting into an industry that’s different from the one you’re used to, it’s not uncommon to come down with impostor syndrome at some point. Especially in a highly critical and precise industry such as the science industry, how you get ahead of things and manage yourself internally plays a key role in your potential success. Danielle Silva realized early on that no one has all the answers and that you don't have to have ready-made answers for every question thrown your way. Based on her own experience, she says that the most important thing was being a problem solver, having the flexibility to adapt, and surrounding herself with a team or network of people with deep expertise in the industry so that you can have a better understanding of the industry. Because the only way for you to feel genuinely that you are a part of something is to engage, to learn, and to embrace everything it has to offer.  Overcoming academic background challenges when joining a new industry  One challenge many entrepreneurs face when breaking into a new industry is the issue of perceived inexperience. As a newcomer in the science industry, Danielle knew she had to take the necessary steps to showcase what she has to offer and she was able to address the challenge posed by her coming from a different academic background by building her network within the science industry. She was able to gain credibility in her new field by staying on top of the information flow in the industry. She was able to prove that she has the necessary skills and expertise to make a mark in the field of science. Danielle not only made a mark, but she also made it possible for other women in the science industry to band together and support each other specifically in the biotech industry.

Today’s interview with Danielle Hayden from Profit Planner is all about helping you take home a bigger paycheck from your side hustle is so timely for me, it’s kinda eerie! Danielle and I actually did our interview back in November of 2019 and it’s just now coming out because of my production schedule, and as I was pulling together the show notes for today, I’m like… “This is crazy that this interview with Danielle is even coming up right now about focusing on being profitable and keeping more of your money over growing.” And here’s why: Because my husband and I are on our second attempt at building a new house. And you might be thinking… “Um, thanks for sharing? But what does this have to do with me?” When you are self-employed, and you go to a bank to ask them for a loan, they want to see proof that your business actually makes money. Two years worth of proof to be exact. So about a year ago, my husband Floyd and I met with our lender to get preapproved for a construction loan. They asked for our 2018 tax return and my business profit and loss statements from 2017 and 2018. “Do you need my W2 from 2017 also?” I asked. “I had a day job and the business back then,” I offered. “No, since you don’t work there anymore it doesn’t matter,” said Bob. “Crap,” I thought. When I quit my day job in 2017 I was making $100,000 a year. And it wasn’t going to count. In 2017 my business had made $73,500 dollars in revenue, but… ...wait for it… $12,000 in profit. And no, this isn’t some creative accounting where I show minimal profit to avoid taxes. This was legit me spending $61,000 on business expenses: Pinterest experts. Facebook Ads. Online courses that promised to reveal the secret explode my business or teach me how to do Instagram. Virtual assistants and subcontractors to work on marketing strategies and projects that I didn’t need to be doing in the first place. Conferences and travel. Expensive software that I justified as being cheaper than hiring another VA but whose features I barely used. Branding. Rebranding. I could go on. It pains me to even tell you that. I’d honestly been avoiding looking at it until I started looking at the numbers to write a totally different blog post. But I have to tell you this part of the story, because while my business has always technically been profitable (it makes more money than it spends and has zero debt) and while I’ve been sharing with full transparency on this podcast my income AND expenses in 2018 and 2019, I’ve never told you what the money looked like for me in the earlier years. So let me rectify that right now: Bottom line: there’s absolutely no reason that I should have ever spent that much money on expenses in my business. It DOES NOT cost thousands upon thousands of dollars to market yourself and run your business online!!! Know how I know? If I went through every single expense in my business from 2015 - 2019, knowing what I believe NOW about what it takes market myself online and make money, I would have spent at least $100,000 LESS in business expenses. And I’m not just pulling that number out of thin air. No, I didn’t go through all my expenses line by line so that I could get in a time machine and see every dumb money decision I’ve ever made in my business… But I did calculate my average profit margin in my business from 2015 to 2018 to be 34% (meaning, on average I kept 34% of what I made BEFORE taxes). By contrast, my profit margin in 2019 was 71% (meaning I kept 71% of what I made BEFORE taxes). Had I kept 71% of what I made from 2015 to 2018, I would have kept close to an additional $100,000. Sigh. The proof is right there in black and white: I know how to make money. So why did I always think there was something more I needed to be doing or using or learning?  And why did I spend thousands and thousands of dollars trying to uncover it? The answer to that question took me WAY longer to figure out. Anyway, last year, long story short, we tried to get this construction loan but because of my profit in 2017 being only $12,000, they wanted us to put down a ginormous down payment to make it happen, and we weren’t willing to do it. So my husband tells our mortgage guy: “Looks like we’ll have to wait til next year when Shannon has two full-time years in the business behind her.” I felt so ashamed of myself at that moment that I didn’t bother to correct my husband. I couldn’t bring myself to say, “Oh yeah Floyd… about that… it wasn’t my full-time job that prevented me from keeping more than $12,000 of the $73,000 I made… it’s all the BS I believed about myself and what it takes to run a business online that caused me to spend a crap-ton of money on things I thought I needed but really didn’t need...” No, instead of telling the truth, I stuffed down my shame and put my nose to the grindstone, determined to work even harder this year and determined to keep more of the money I make. I slashed expenses, made more offers, and made and kept more money in 2019 than ever before. So right now, we’re in the midst of our second attempt to build this house. And as if his ears were burning as I was writing the intro for this podcast, Bob literally just called me to ask for a couple more documents, break down the numbers and let me know that we’re on track to close in three weeks if all the appraisals come back as he expects. “You had a great year in 2019, didn’t you?” he said. And I go, “Yeah, it’s pretty amazing what you can do when it’s your full-time I gig.” I literally just went with the lie, because I’m STILL ashamed to admit the truth - well, to everyone but you guys… To you guys, I’m like, “Oh, they need to hear this so they don’t do what I did. So that they’re vulnerable and lured by shiny objects like I was, and so that they value and trust themselves like I didn’t.” But to people close to me, I’m like “Oh, I don’t want them to know how bad I had no clue what I was doing…” Yes, I know it sounds crazy. Anyway. That’s why you need to hear from today’s guest, so that you can get a handle on the numbers in your business, make sure you’re PROFITABLE so that you can keep more of your money and give yourself a bigger paycheck. Danielle Hayden is a reformed corporate CFO (chief financial officer) who is on a mission to help rule-breaking female entrepreneurs understand their numbers so they can gain the confidence needed to create sustainable profits. After spending 10+ years in the board room as a corporate finance officer, Danielle is now in her sweet spot as the co-owner of Kickstart Accounting, Inc. where she helps business owners with bookkeeping, financial analysis, and education and as the author of the Profit Planner book series. Today we’re talking about: How Danielle can help you take home a bigger paycheck. Why she’s on a mission to help entrepreneurs overcome the fear of looking at their financials How to let go of the shame around numbers in our businesses. Exactly how Danielle and her partner got their very first clients. The three most important numbers to know in your business and how to use them to grow. Danielle’s best advice for you if you’re struggling to grow your side hustle. The one belief Danielle had to change about herself to get where she is today. My favorite quotes from Danielle: “I want every entrepreneur to know that they deserve a CFO. They deserve to have bookkeeping. They need to know their numbers in order to grow their business.” “What built our business is talking to people and building relationships.” “Growing is not always the best. It is figuring out what is making you the most money and honing in on that. So at the end of the day you want to be profitable.” “Figure out what's working, what isn't working, learn from it and then try something else because that's what entrepreneurship is.” Resources mentioned in this episode: Profit Planner: Use code peptalks for 15% off Kickstart Accounting profitplannerbookkeeping.com/peptalks Bio: Danielle Hayden is a reformed corporate CFO (chief financial officer) who is on a mission to help rule-breaking female entrepreneurs understand their numbers so they can gain the confidence needed to create sustainable profits.

Are you willing to give up coffee? Chocolate? Rum? Many of us have come to think of these products as necessities and would have a very hard time giving them up.

Danielle Liss is a lawyer based in Las Vegas who specializes in streamlining every conceivable legal hurdle for small business owners. To give you an idea of her impressive resume, she’s the founder and CEO of Businessese (which specializes in DIY legal templates), the owner of Liss Legal, the full-time general counsel for an eight figure digital health and fitness company, and to boot she’s been named one of the top lawyers in Las Vegas for the last two years. Danielle has also struggled with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) for a very long time, and after finally receiving treatment for her condition she now advocates for pushing the conversation about mental health into the open so everybody can become more comfortable with it. In fact, it was while I was coaching Danielle that she chose to address her OCD and not settle for what life and her mind had thrown her way. In this interview, Danielle discusses her history with this condition, explains why sufferers of mental illness should be open to medication and why it’s nothing to be ashamed of, and examines how we can confuse mental illness for some essential part of who we are. By the end of this interview, I hope that her story inspires you and you feel empowered enough to take action in your own life if you yourself are struggling. The Finer Details of This Episode: - Danielle discusses books and explains why she prefers to listen to non-fiction rather than read it. - How Danielle came to work with me and identify some of the compulsions that were adding to the stress in her life. - What it’s like to live with negative and disturbing intrusive thoughts. - Exploring the fear that treating mental illness can impede some unique aspect of your personality. - Why it’s important to overcome a fear of psychiatric medication, especially if mental illness is affecting your life on a day-to-day basis. - Perhaps the most essential step: finding some outlet, be it a professional or a friend or even a journal, that will help you collate your thoughts. - Which questions you SHOULD and SHOULDN’T ask someone struggling with OCD. - If you don’t have a mental illness, what terms should you use to describe your quirks that don’t co-opt the struggles of those who do deal with them? - TAKE ACTION: if you have thoughts or feelings on this discussion, or your own experiences with mental health that you’re willing to open up about, please share your response to this episode on social media! Quotes: “A piece of me was extremely happy that there was a name for this.” “It’s been a really interesting period of reflection as I have determined what does actually make me succeed.” “If you are struggling, go to a professional, talk to them.” “I am all for what works, but don’t deny it just because it’s dispensed by a pharmacist.” “You’ve gotta have that one person you can break the ice with.” “This diagnosis is a part of me, it’s not all of me.” Show Links: Liss Legal - https://www.lisslegal.com/ Businessese homepage - https://www.businessese.com/ BetterHelp Professional Counseling - https://www.betterhelp.com/ Talkspace Online Therapy - https://www.talkspace.com/ The Spokes of Life free downloadable - https://kellythealth.lpages.co/hfs-spokes-of-life/ Ascend Mastermind - http://www.kellytravis.net/ascend

Today’s guest is going to change all that.    Danielle Hayden and I talk about how to make tracking numbers fun and empowering, how to figure out what your KPIs are and how to start some healthy number habits for your business today.

This is an option that is rarely talked about in our entrepreneurial world, but it is not unusual. Sometimes an incredible opportunity comes around for an entrepreneur to work for someone else. An opportunity that just cannot be passed up. I am thrilled to have attorney Danielle Liss back on the podcast to share how she chose to move from full time entrepreneur to a Vice President level position with a fast growing startup.   Danielle left a thriving virtual law practice to a join The Faster Way to Fat Loss team as General Counsel and VP of Affiliate Programs. Perhaps even more surprising is Danielle’s realization that this career change has actually improved her mental health and well-being.  Danielle is free-spoken and honest in our discussion and really opens up about entrepreneurship and why she decided to return to full-time employment. But that’s not all we talk about! We also dive into lessons learned throughout her career, why CEO’s need to invest in themselves before they can really invest in their businesses and what it’s like working for an eight-figure company that is experiencing hockey stick growth!   In this episode, we discuss:  How Danielle grew her virtual legal business Why Danielle decided to go back to full-time employment The positive impact that full-time employment has had on Danielle’s mental health and wellbeing Join the BizChix Community Connect With Danielle Liss Website Faster Way to Fat Loss LinkedIn Instagram Facebook Twitter Books, Tools or Events Mentioned: You Are A Badass at Making Money by Jen Sincero Rising Strong by Brene Brown Radical Candor by Kim Scott Other Links Mentioned: Stop, Breathe & Think Buddhify Listen to Stacking Your Team Work with Us: One Day Mastermind GrowthChix Accelerator Program ProfitChix Mastermind CEOCHIX Mastermind Strategy Session Join the BizChix Community This episode was first published at BizChix.com/387.

Danielle and her husband, Tony, met while Danielle was a professional acrobat for the Toronto Raptors half-time show and Tony was her photographer. Today, Danielle and Tony have two photography businesses, one specializing in wedding and lifestyle shoots and another focused on the commercial side. Danielle shares how she discovered her passion for photography, alongside Tony, and how she shot on the weekends as a creative outlet, while maintaining a full-time career in advertising. They slowly built their business, and when Danielle became too busy to manage it all, she left her advertising job and went all-in. Danielle provides incredible insight into how she created her business to provide the lifestyle and experiences she desired, because wealth isn't necessarily just money. As Danielle and Tony became parents, they continued to prioritize time with each other and their children, which was facilitated by the freedom to choose when to work as entrepreneurs. Danielle explains how she's learned to cope with the ups and downs of a seasonal business, and how important it is to do what's right for you, not what other people think is right. We also talk about technology's impact on business and photography, as well as how to deal with the fear that is ever-present in running your own business.  TOPICS EXPLORED IN THIS EPISODE: How acrobatics was the spark for Danielle's first business [ 2:50 ] How Danielle discovered her love of photography [ 5:50 ] When the time was right to focus full time on the photography business [ 7:06 ] Danielle and Tony's business inspiration [ 8:00 ] An alternative definition of wealth and riches [ 11:42 ] How the business provides the freedom to maximize time with their children [ 16:00 ] The type of activities that Danielle and Tony model for their kids [ 21:30 ] How to cope with seasons in business [ 23:05 ] Making the decision to not work in December [ 26:45 ] The difficulties and changes that social media brings [ 36:36 ]  How the photography industry is segmented with respect to technology [ 42:22 ] Which touchpoints Danielle and Tony invest in for advertising [ 44:15 ]  How Danielle deals with the fear inherent in running your own business [ 48:22 ]   Danielle's Quotable: Our idea of wealth is not necessarily money, it's lifestyle.    I was an otherwise intelligent woman, except for the fact that I knew nothing.    ========== Books discussed in this episode: The Four Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferriss ========== Connect with Danielle: Wedding and lifestyle photography: www.littlebluelemon.com  Commercial photography: www.lblstudio.com   ========== Connect with Kattie: Online: www.kattiethorndyke.com Instagram: @kattiethorndyke LinkedIn: @kattiethorndyke

Welcome to the Design Thinking 101 podcast! I'm Dawan Stanford, your host. Today I'm interviewing Danielle Lake. She is the Director of Design Thinking and Associate Professor at Elon University. As a feminist pragmatist, her scholarship explores the connections and tensions between wicked problems and the movement towards public engagement within higher education. Her current projects focus on exploring the long-term impact of collaborative, place- and project-based learning, design thinking practices, and pedagogies of resilience. Lake is co-editor of the book series, Higher Education and Civic Democratic Engagement: Exploring Impact, with Peter Lang Publishing.   Danielle started her journey by designing her own major; she called "designing life" her philosophy, relating to who we are and what we want to do. In her Ph.D. program, she uncovered "The Field of Wicked Problems," while working with her Ph.D. advisors Kyle White and Paul Thompson, looking at large-scale systemic crises needing a different approach. She had learned from many experts before discovering design thinking, and she asked herself how she could take her teaching, research, and service, and weave them together.   Today, we explore how design thinking has played out in Danielle's teaching, such as redesigning student outcomes so that a final product is a practical solution to a current issue. This way of teaching has flipped the classroom for Danielle, and she talks about how this methodology on student learning has been very impactful in her classrooms. Project-based, relational, and on-going learning experiences are critical ingredients for long-term learning. Early on, she faced some challenges: opening up to students, starting small, and finding ways to invite other experts in and allow them to lead with their expertise. Danielle is looking to continue to design courses to give students the time to delve into the work they value.   We'll also dig into the relationship between design and philosophy, and how they work together to give us a place to start in learning about our environment, being collaborative, and solving societal issues. Danielle also talks about what she hopes to accomplish in her professional relationships moving forward, and we’ll hear a little about Dawan's own journey in discovering design thinking and the creation of Fluid Hive and The Education Design Lab. Dawan also talks about how he was introduced to Elon by Design, and his process of discovering design thinking was part of the Elon culture, and the importance of having the space to learn with others who are practicing design thinking.

Danielle Hawkins is a qualified veterinarian and busy farmer's wife who writes popular rural  rom coms set in New Zealand.  She got started, she says, because she needed a new project and she'd “already painted the house.” Hi there I'm your host Jenny Wheeler and today Danielle talks about  how popular vet James Heriott inspired her and  writing “unromantic” romance. And for fans – or people who'd like to be fans – we've got a great Giveaway: two paperback copies of Danielle's latest book, when it all went to custard to give away in a draw. One each week, for the next two weeks, so enter the draw here or on Facebook.  Entries close July 20, so get in now your own copy of Danielle's latest funny romcom. Six things you'll learn from this Joys of Binge Reading episode: How Danielle got started in rural romanceThe 'nicest rejection letter' everLiving in her favourite place on earthWhy she's tired of sanitized vet showsTreating Kiwis (the birds) with runny nosesA best-seller who doubts her own success Where you can find Danielle Hawkins: Facebook: @DanielleHawkinsAuthor What follows is a "near as" transcript of our conversation, not word for word but pretty close to it, with links to important mentions. Jenny: But now, here's Danielle. .  Hello there Danielle and welcome to the show, it's great to have you with us. Danielle: Hi Jenny, thanks. Jenny: Look, you're a qualified veterinarian, and a farmer's wife living on a sheep and beef farm, raising two children. And you decide one day that you want to be a romance author. Is that how it happened? And was there a Once Upon A Time moment when you decided; I've just got to write a book? Danielle Hawkins - rurtal romcom author and country vet, at home on the farm with her children. Danielle: Oh well, not exactly. I never decided to be a romance writer and I was rather surprised when this was how I was labeled, because you just think that you've written a book. You don't put it in any particular box. But I started writing. I was at home with a baby and I wasn't working full time. Actually I wasn't working at all, apart from being at home with a baby ,and I was bored. I just I wanted a project. Looking for a project . . . Jenny: It's that simple? You wanted a project? There's a million people who would like a project, but they don't choose to write a book. Danielle: Oh, I painted the house first. And then I wrote a book. Jenny: I painted the house first! That sounds so Kiwi. Your books have been described as a cross between Doc Martin, the TV series and the stories of James Herriott. I've gathered that when you were a teenager you wanted to be James Herriott. So it must be quite cool for you, is it? Danielle: Absolutely. That's a wonderful compliment. No one has ever done, I don't think, what James Herriott has done. His books  appeal to people who know nothing about veterinary medicine and yet they're not patronising and boring to people who do know all about it. That's such a skill. I'm so impressed. Finding her right niche Jenny: It's lovely. You've now written four very well-received novels that can be best described as distinctly rural New Zealand romantic comedies. Was it a matter of 'write what you know?' You say you didn't start out writing romance. So how did you come to be put in that slot in the end? Danielle: Oh well I started writing, and the first thing I wrote was rubbish. Even I could tell it was rubbish. And then I wrote something else, and then something else. The one that I submitted to a publisher was Number Four or Number Five, I think. It was a dystopian story, set in New Zealand, where we'd been overtaken by this group of religious fundamentalists and we'd all been plunged back into the age of  horses and carts and long skirts and that sort of thing. The 'nicest rejection letter' ever And I submitted it and I got back quite possibly the nicest rejection letter ever.

They agree that parenting as an entrepreneur is difficult and a lot of fun. Tune in now, to find out more!

Why Danielle wanted to start her business. Danielle's kids were quite young when she started her business and it's been fun to include them in the business as they have grown older.  Danielle is really intentional about focusing on her work when she sits down at her desk.  Danielle puts her phone down and really tries to be present when she's with her kids. Dr. Sabrina shares how she is with being present with her kids and keeping her business moving at the same time. Keeping boundaries in place but not being rigid with them. Danielle explains to her kids what she needs to do in order to be successful in her business. And that she's willing to go the extra mile to give her clients excellent service. Finding a way to show your kids that a business can support life, not the other way around. Why Danielle feels that, as parents who are entrepreneurs, we have a responsibility to run a more profitable business.

Angie & Danielle talk about - How Danielle's husband sabotaged their flip cup victory - Things moms said when we were younger - New rules of technology - Hangover cures.... - and so much more! 

Danielle Ofri, MD, PhD, is a physician at Bellevue Hospital, the oldest public hospital in the USA, and a faculty member of New York University School of Medicine. She writes about medicine and the doctor-patient connection for the New York Times, Slate Magazine, and other publications. Danielle is co-founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Bellevue Literary Review, the first literary journal to arise from a medical setting. She is the author of a collection of books about the world of medicine. Her most recent book is, "What Patients Say, What Doctors Hear." Danielle highlights just how vital good communication is in the world of medicine. The great majority of malpractice lawsuits stem from miscommunication, far more so than actual errors in clinical practice. This is communication between doctors but importantly, between doctors and their patients. There is an enormous cost of not listening in medicine. Danielle shares one particular study in which an extra twenty minutes spent between doctor and patient prior to a surgical procedure went on to save those patients from an additional three days in hospital, and reduced the amount of opioid painkillers they required. Leaving aside the health outcomes, the financial impact illustrated by this study is substantial. Before a patient consultation, Danielle makes sure she has read up on all the relevant notes and charts. In this way she can listen undistracted while they talk, focused and looking at the patient, not looking at charts or a computer screen. Danielle's research finds that doctors tend to interrupt their patients within eight to ten seconds of their speaking. She also notes that if left uninterrupted, patients will only speak for a minute to ninety seconds - a length of time Danielle thinks we can all aim to listen for! Dedicate a minute to undistracted, 'full frontal listening', and the speaker will give you the information they want to share and that you need. Danielle thinks of it as an investment in the future relationship. Danielle shares a story of her father's experience in hospital, and how accompanying him gave Danielle a patient's perspective on things. It's very easy for a doctor who sees many patients every day to not listen deeply in each and every interaction, because there are so many. For the patient, however, this time is precious.   Tune in to Learn How to get around technology, to listen undistracted Why Danielle asks her patients "how much do you want to know?" How listening to a patient reduces anxiety How Danielle is teaching new doctors to listen About listening to the unsaid for life-threatening issues

Think you’re onto something BIG, and surprised you’re receiving so many NO’s from investors? It can really make you second guess yourself, and shake your confidence... … but it shouldn’t! Receiving a LOT of NO’s is natural. You may be tempted to listen to the feedback after receiving some NO’s and think you just need to launch your product, change your business model, or grow your customer base, and then you’ll be more attractive to investors. Guess again. The reason you receive for the NO and the feedback you get may not be aligned. Why? Because at the end of the day, investors are human. They don’t want to hurt the feeling of a first time founder, and don’t want to seem rude in case they want to invest later. Yes they just might invest later. So how can you tell what is really going on? Well that’s what we’re going to debunk in today’s episode of Build! To help us out I’ve invited Ooshma Garg who is the CEO and Founder of Gobble, and Danielle Morrill who is the CEO and Founder of Mattermark. They've both recently become investment partners at XFactor Ventures, an investment firm that's focused on investing in female founders and mixed-gender teams. We’re going to help get comfortable with receiving NOs and deciphering what they really mean. You’ll learn: How Danielle and Ooshma learned to keep their spirits up despite all the NOs they received How to be politely persistent with investors who won’t bother taking a meeting with you The various tests investors put first time founder through How to maintain a relationship with an investors even after they say NO -- Build is produced as a partnership between Femgineer and Pivotal Tracker. San Francisco video production by StartMotionMEDIA. -- ## Why Investors Keep Saying NO To Your BIG Idea Transcript   Poornima Vijayashanker: In the previous two episodes of *Build*, we talked about why, even if you have an idea, you might not get investment from it, and it needs to be a big idea in order to even attract interest. But even if it's a big idea, chances are investors aren't going to say “yes.” In today's *Build* episode, we're gonna uncover all the reasons an investor may say “no” to your big idea, so stay tuned.   Welcome to *Build*, brought to you by Pivotal Tracker. I'm your host, Poornima Vijayashanker. In each episode, innovators and I debunk a number of myths and misconceptions related to building products, companies, and your career in tech. Now, one misconception that a lot of first-time founders fall prey to is if they have a big idea, some investor's gonna want to put capital and fund it.   The truth is that a lot of funders face nos, and just because they face nos doesn't mean that someone won't eventually invest in them. In today's *Build* episode, we're gonna explore all the reasons that investors may say “no” to your big idea. And to help us out, I've invited both Ooshma Garg and Danielle Morrill.   Ooshma is CEO and Founder of Gobble, and Danielle is CEO and Founder of Mattermark. They've both recently become investment partners at XFactor, an investment firm that's focused on investing in female founders and mixed-gender teams. Thanks a lot for joining me today.   Danielle Morrill: Absolutely.   Ooshma Garg: Thanks for having us.   Poornima Vijayashanker: We've come a lot way since that first South by Southwest where we all shared a hotel room in 2010, and all of us have gone out and fundraised a number of times. I want to start by asking the two of you, what was that first no like that you got from an investor?   Danielle Morrill: I was bummed. I mean, I think the first 10 investment meetings were just nos back to back. First, you're like, "I guess that it would happen. I would get a no," but I'm like, kind of the straight-A's type kid. I keep thinking, “Of course I would get a yes every time," and then after you get them over and over, you're like, "Oh, maybe this just happens. Maybe this is true that you get way more nos than yeses." What do you think?   Ooshma Garg: Man, you know, your company is like your baby. It's a reflection of yourself, so the first no, and even ongoing nos, they're always so personal. I think you get a little bit used to it because you just build some armor and build some strength every day and every year as an entrepreneur, but especially in the very beginning, it's kind of like a survival-of-the-fittest process. You have to be able to psychologically get through the nos, take some feedback, and develop that never-quit attitude early on if you're going to be successful ultimately.   How To Get Over Rejection When Fundraising And Keep Going   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah. So, how did you get over that? How do you even know that you should just take the feedback, deal with the rejection, and keep going?   Danielle Morrill: I made a fundraising playlist on Spotify.   Poornima Vijayashanker: OK.   Danielle Morrill: I think it's Jay-Z who says, "On to the next one." I used to blast that song, like after every pitch, actually after the good ones, too. But honestly, you kind of just have to keep living, and I think part of it is just putting it in context with the rest of your life. Having a playlist for me was sort of a reminder of, “Oh, life just kind of goes on.” It's fun with your team too, I think, to just be...I guess not everyone does this, but with my team at the very early stage, it's not like you can hide the fact you got turned down.   Later on when you're raising, maybe you don't tell everybody that you're raising a series A, but when you're raising early stage money, you get your team to cheer you up. They buy you beers. You do silly things. You kind of have to let life keep happening so that it doesn't get too serious.   Ooshma Garg: Yeah, I agree. What's funny is my fundraising song is "Survivor," by Destiny's Child.   Danielle Morrill: How many people do you think have a fundraiser song?   Ooshma Garg: I don't know. This is the first time we're talking—   Danielle Morrill: We need to make a playlist.   Ooshma Garg: We need to make a playlist.   Danielle Morrill: That's a good idea.   Ooshma Garg: We need to make a playlist for our portfolio.   Poornima Vijayashanker: We'll link with the playlist to you guys. So, do you ever go back to the people that said “no?” Because you guys have done multiple rounds now, where you might have had to go back to those early investors who said “no” and ask for more.   Ooshma Garg: Absolutely. In our case, even our first check as a seed investment, it took me three different introductions, multiple follow-ups, to even get in the door before the no. After someone says “no,” it feels very final, but I think that the big secret is that you have to go back and that you should keep following up. Time and time again, I hear friends talk about series As, series Bs, and so on, where they got a no. They were...they kind of welcomed it and took all the feedback. They updated different investors every week for two months, three months, sometimes six months, and then they close that same investor. They might be a Sequoia, or Andreessen Horowitz, or what have you.   All those funds are looking for stamina and looking for breakout businesses. A breakout business has to have someone that's willing to listen, iterate, and improve. So, the funny thing is, you should see that as just the beginning of your relationship. For our venture financings, we had multiple failed fundraising attempts and then ultimately successful ones. Our funds that invest in us now, Andreessen Horowitz, Trinity Ventures, etc., absolutely said “no” once or twice before. But I maintained that relationship.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah. What about—   Why It’s Valuable To Reconnect With People Who Said NO   Danielle Morrill: You have to think about it like sales. Like, would you have never contacted a lead again because they didn't convert at the end of the trial? No. If you are in my database, I am going to be talking to you for the rest of your life. If you're in this business, there's a certain set of investors that you really wanna work with. Frankly, they're looking for the people who don't take it so hard that they never come back, to your point about stamina.   I think also, once you go back to people a few times and kind of...you have that feeling of like, “This feels like it's against the rules to go back.” Then you realize that it's actually respected, and so it's a self-fulfilling thing, and you start to find yourself going back more and more.   How To Push For Specific Feedback   Poornima Vijayashanker: Well, it's great that you got feedback, but I think a lot of times, you get this generic feedback, where it's like, "I wanna see more traction," and you're like, "I'm already at, you know, 10k in monthly recurring revenue," or, "I'm already at, like, a million-dollar run rate," like, "How much more traction do you want to see," right? So, how can you kind of push an investor to give you more directed feedback in that note?   Danielle Morrill: Well, I mean, I think...We sit on both sides of the table now, so I think sometimes it's laziness that causes people to ask for these things. So, for example, the "I wanna see more traction." It's kind of like going into Macy's and being like, "Why isn't this a Dior dress?" It's like, OK, if you want a Dior dress, maybe you should go buy one. If you wanna find a company that has, like, $5 million a year of revenue, and you're at seed stage, sorry, this is what we have, and this is what I'm selling, and if it's not what you're interested in, it's fine for you to turn me down, but I'm not...this is not a buffet where you can come back anytime between 10 and 1. I'm trying to raise a round.   You kind of have to, at least inside, hold a certain amount of entitlement over your time. It's not that you need to be entitled to their money, but you're running a process, and I think that that is really important. So, for a lot of these unclear feedbacks, I think it's more important to say, like, "What do you think of what I'm selling now? And if it's not clear what I'm selling, let me remind you and redirect." Honestly, you have just as much a right to claim your time as they do.   Ooshma Garg: Absolutely. And you have to kind of draft or pick your draft, in a way, with your investors. There are ones that I really wanna follow up with, and I would love to work with, and it's not just from my side of the table. I think, just like with employees or anyone else, or with a relationship, you want it to be good with both sides. So, you might see something that they don't, but they've only known you for 30 minutes. You've done all your homework. You know what they've invested in. You know the other founders.   So, you don't just follow up with everyone. You hear the nos. Sometimes, it's not even worth following up. Sometimes it was an introduction, and you didn't really connect. A no is OK. Other times, it comes with something that says, "Our fund requires x, y, or z. Someone at this stage. We need this much ownership." It's important to know what's a BS no and what's actually a valid no. Sometimes...it took me a long time to learn that funds vary drastically in size, and that actually has a huge impact on who can invest in you at different times in your lifecycle. So, timing is important.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah, hold that thought. We're gonna come back to that in a little bit, the whole fund size, and what makes sense and what doesn't. So, but let's go on to some of the more easy things that you hear and might get rejected. So, I don't know if either of you have faced this, but the whole, "You don't have a technical co-founder." And somehow that's like a gating factor to even get a dollar out of this investor, right? You hear things like this where you're just not meeting a certain checkbox. What's been your response to that sort of stuff?   Danielle Morrill: It depends on the checkbox. Basically, what I would say for technical co-founder or a lot of these is, they're like risk boxes. So, each one...it's almost like if it was a survey, and you added up enough points, then there's too much risk here. It's probably no one reason that's gonna knock you out, but they're trying to figure out where you fit. So, technical co-founder is not necessarily a problem if you nail everything else, but if you don't have a product, and there's no one to build it, then of course, that's gonna be expensive.   So, I think it's—sometimes the way it seems to be coming across to the investor is like it's a checkbox thing, but they're really trying to ask a bigger question. So, I think one thing I've found is that it's good to say, like, "Tell me more about why you're worried about that," rather than just answering the question, making them elucidate more. Cause I've been surprised by some of the answers that I get. The technical co-founder question, I think the assumption is, who's gonna build the product? And they might just be thinking, "Dang, we're gonna need to go raise a big round because you need to hire two or three engineers instead of building it yourself."   They're not actually worried about you not being technical. They don't care that you're not technical. They're more like, "OK, so now I have to assess fundraising risk cause this person's gonna need to go build a team." So, it's easy to think it's about you, and, "Oh, you can't code." And then you kinda like lock down and feel guilty, but I think that's not always the case. A lot of these things are not actually what they seem on the surface.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Right. Yeah, I think another one along those lines is also, "Why are you working on this idea?" Right? So it's, what puts you in that unique position to kind of own domain expertise? Have you guys ever gotten that question, like, "Why this? Why Gobble, Ooshma? Why help people with cooking at the end of their day?"   Ooshma Garg: Right. Well, Gobble is a lucky one for me because it's a mission-driven company, and it started out of my family. What we do is we help people cook home-cooked food in 15 minutes in one pan, and we bring this tradition, and ritual, and love of a household into the modern, busy life. That's something that's very near and dear to me. So, because of that, it shows that I'm just gonna give it my all and not quit.   I think some folks stumble on an opportunity sometimes. You are...you're just a inventor, and you want to tinker around, and you try finding what's gonna fit in today's zeitgeist. Just like founders come in different flavors, I think investors come in different flavors, too. There are investors who are great at investing in arbitrage opportunities. There's investors who really wanna back founders, or social good, or mission-drive folks. Or they wanna back moon-shoots. Or some people wanna back things that have a linear, direct, immediate path to growth.   So, I think having that context when you assess someone's response to you is really important because you kinda, just like with your friends, you have to find your tribe with your investors, as well.   Is The Market For Your Product Big Enough?   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah. So, there's definitely this sizing-up thing, and I think one of the early signals is, they don't feel like your market is big enough, maybe because they're not aware of that market, or maybe they don't get the space. Have either of you had that situation where you come in, you've already got traction, you've got the go-to market team, products in the hand of customers, and they're just kind of scratching their head, like, "Oh, is food...do people eat dinner still these days? Is that still a thing?" How do you deal—   Danielle Morrill: Oh my gosh. I actually don't think it's worthwhile to continue to have the conversation, and I have to shout out to Hunter Walk, who wrote an excellent post about this, I don't know if you guys saw, around a woman who was pitching, and someone said like, "Convince me this market's big enough." And she just said, "Look, I don't wanna work that hard. I've already got traction, people eat dinner, right?" I think there are times when you're looking at this investor, and you have to consider, if they don't get it at this point, especially if you're doing something where you have traction, and it's fairly obvious that the market is big...   I mean, most of us...if you're building breakthrough tech, you might find a situation where markets are unclear in terms of size, like Blockchain, for example. But in most cases, these are professional investors, and they may be testing you, and they might wanna know what you know, so it's worthwhile to at least give them a rough answer, but I would take it as serious data, if they need to be convinced that the market's big enough.   The other side is that, not all markets need to be big to be interesting. It's more about if you can create something that can grow. Obviously creating a market that doesn't exist is a really valuable thing. So, again, I think it goes back to flipping the script a little bit in terms of trying to make sure you understand what they're really getting at. Like, do they not know? Are they testing you? Are they gonna be a huge waste of your time?   How To Get To The Real Question They Are Asking   Poornima Vijayashanker: How can you kind of suss that out? Are there questions or techniques?   Danielle Morrill: I would just start getting curious, like, "How much do you know about the market? Have you invested in this space? Obviously you're interested in us. What do you think?" And it doesn't have to become combative. It's much more of just, like, how does this become a dialogue instead of playing 20 questions, where you're doing all the talking? I think about it kinda like a job interview, I think, in both parties are confused about who's interviewing who, and you really wanna make sure that you find a balance where it's not you, as the founder, talking 80% of the time.   Ooshma Garg: The framing is so important. So, if you're getting some feedback repetitively that, "I don't understand your market," or, "I don't understand your path forward, or your path to revenue, or how you're gonna hire," then you do have to take that feedback and try to iterate and improve your pitch itself. I think that every company...it's very hard that you meet a perfect de-risked company at an early stage. They all have some mini risks, and often times, one big risk. So, sometimes it's, "Wow, there isn't a market for this, but we see that being the future."   Other times, there's a really big market, but maybe it's crowded. So, the question is, how are you gonna be, for example, defensible in the food space? Other times, it's...you have something defensible and proprietary. It's a huge market, but no one's willing to pay for it. So, people aren't willing to pay for music, or TV, or whatever. So, how are you even gonna make money for something that everybody's using?   Whether it's revenue, market, defensibility, IP, every business typically gets stuck, I find, on one big discussion. The better you can hone your slide and your couple lines to make sure that your message is getting across properly, and that resonates, it's just to your advantage cause people have such limited time with you and attention span. You know what is gonna be the hot button in your pitch, so identifying that early and practicing that part the most would probably do you well.   How To Get At An Investors Hot Buttons   Poornima Vijayashanker: So, we previously had Marie Perruchet on the show, and she talked about taking your pitch and then seeing how other people reformulate it, or what are the pieces that they extract? That usually becomes these hot-buttons, or the thing that is most memorable that maybe you need to dive into. Are there other ways that you guys have found to extract that information?   Danielle Morrill: I think...reformulating, literally having someone pitch it back to you, is that what you mean?   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah. As one technique to, like...what's sticky, what is impactful, but then there's the other case of, yeah, what is the hot button that people are probably gonna step away from?   Danielle Morrill: I mean, I think one of the things that is really interesting is whenever you're opening the conversation with an investor, at the very beginning. If you can get them to tell you, like, "Hey, what do you know about my company?" Because that actually is gonna tell you a ton about what they've already decided you're doing, and it's sometimes really wrong, or it's like...you know, there's a lot there, and then you can kind of work from there. If you notice that, pretty consistently, people are having the wrong idea, I mean, kinda to your point about feedback, it's another way of getting—   The reality is, people act like you setup your pitch, and then you go out. But you actually create your pitch, start to go out, and then you're continuously iterating on the pitch. So, you have so many opportunities to make the pitch better. I actually look at the first 10 pitches or so. I kind of set up pitches with targets where I would be interested in working with them, but they're not my top picks, so that I'm actually running the pitch against those folks. That way, if the first three or four say that their first impression of you is different, then you can realize, “Oh, the market already knows who I am.” Very rarely do you get to just go pitch, and no one knows who you are. That's another tactic that I think can be really helpful.   Finding Investors Who Are a Fit   Poornima Vijayashanker: So, coming back to kind of Ooshma's point around finding investors who fit into one of many opportunities, like arbitrage, moon shots, love the space, etc., there's also people who really get beholden to certain stages, right? They're like, "Oh, come back and talk to me once you've figured out your customer acquisition cost, or your lifetime value," right? Are there ways in which you've been able to address that, even if you don't have those metrics yet?   Ooshma Garg: One concept I keep running back to is that MVP concept, or minimum viable product, or even like a prototype. So, with my first company, the vision was to make this recruiting platform for universities all around the country. I made...I started by making wireframes, and envisioning the product, and keeping it simple, but thinking through those wireframes. But then, an advisor kind of looked at that, told me to scrap the whole thing, and said, "Why can't you just start with a mailing list? You're making a recruiting platform. Why don't we just see if there's people interested in your concept, and can you get 10,000 people, or 50,000 people, or how ever many students on your mailing list?"   At first, I was offended because I thought, "Oh my gosh, a mailing list is not a tech company." But often times, you can think about some scrappy proxy or prototype to prove what the person is asking, even if you don't have that exact number or the software or resources to get what exactly they want.   Poornima Vijayashanker: So, what's an example...yeah, if somebody throws out, like, "Ooshma, early days, three years ago, what was your LTV?" And you're like, "I don't have an LTV because I don't know," what would your response be to that?   Ooshma Garg: You know, I probably do two things. So one is, I would look at comparables in the market, and so, just doing studies of the general food industry, in my case, like how often people order takeout, or how often...what are people paying for SAS for these particular products each day, or whatever's relevant to your market. I mean, I'm assuming that you're...that you have some prototype. Very few companies pitch pre-product, so whatever data you have for three months or six months, there has to be something there, some monthly active users, how many times people are logging in, how many purchases people have made.   So, you just have to...I mean, our seed round was raised off of two to three months of early prototype data. I think that's all you need. It's just some prototype that shows some user willingness to pay or engage for three months, and then you can extrapolate that into your vision.   How To Handle Disagreements   Poornima Vijayashanker: Now, there's obviously times where people may disagree, right? They may say something like, "You know what, Danielle, I don't like your distribution strategy. I really just don't think it's gonna work. So, you know, cause I think it's gonna be expensive. Come back when you've figured out something that's a little bit cheaper. Then let's have the conversation. But, for now, no."   Danielle Morrill: It seems like an opportunity for them to prove their value-add as an investor. You know, I think that's valid for people to challenge strategy, but I think, what I would wanna know in that situation is, "If you were my investor, what would you suggest that I do? I totally hear your concerns." Make sure to show them that you're listening, but I think that's their opportunity to step up and actually offer something constructive. I think if they're gonna be in an investor where they're gonna be critical without being constructive, that's actually data for you.   The truth is that strategy's tough. Strategy often breaks down, and we change strategy all the time in startups. That's a huge part of what you're testing. So, I think being gracious and not taking it personally is important, but also making sure that you're asking them to demonstrate their value. I actually think that's gonna make them want to work with you. If that goes well, that's actually gonna be a way to test out, what would this working relationship be? So, I think that's...see it as an opportunity.   Poornima Vijayashanker: I like that.   Ooshma Garg: Yeah. And most people kind of...they send you that no via email, and I'm sure that the large majority don't even ask further questions. Some may not even respond, and others might respond and say, "Thanks for your time. I'll move on." But some small percentage are asking follow-up questions, and I think that's just making them stand out and starting that relationship that we said is so important.   I think that if you really did like someone, and their no isn't tactical or directional enough for you, to ask for a 10-minute phone call just to get a little bit more detail or their advice on strategy towards de-risking that investor's concern, I think can go a really long way. So, I think folks should just practice embracing the no and getting that 10-minute call and feedback as much as possible because that will help give them building blocks for another three months, if they can, and not just sort of wander aimlessly, wondering what someone was saying, or worse, completely ignoring it.   Danielle Morrill: Right. If you're gonna go and worry a bunch about the feedback but not ask for the follow-up, go round and round in circles over three glasses of wine, it would be much less painful to just have that awkward 10-minute call and just know where you stand. I think I've seen founders go in circles over this stuff. Literally years later, they'll tell these stories. It's just not worth the energy. The investor's also probably super uncomfortable giving the rejection. We're gonna talk a little bit about saying no on the other side. So, they're kinda beholden to you to give you that 10 minutes, honestly, so you should take it.   How To Know When An Investor Isn’t A Fit   Poornima Vijayashanker: Now, there's a lot of times where it's very obvious, you know, they tell you, "Here's the no," but...aside from some of the ambiguous feedback around the traction, there are times, though, where they may see a signal. Maybe it's something that happened in a meeting between you and your co-founder, or something else. Maybe they did some back-channeling, right? How do you handle those situations where they might feel like, “Oh, there's no chemistry,” or “I'm not sure where this is going?”   Danielle Morrill: It's tough cause they usually don't tell you.   Ooshma Garg: Yeah, they usually don't tell you. I think that's quite rare, as well. I think the way...the best way to handle that or avoid that is actually to construct your own back-channeling. So, like I said, some of the biggest investors, they will only invest based upon referral. Then, when you get so, kind of, well-known and in high demand, they'll only invest based upon two or three referrals. So, every single step is just like hard work. You can't ask for one intro. You can't just take the no on face value. You have to ask for three intros. Then you have to ask for follow-ups. Then you go to the meeting. Then you follow up on the meeting, and if they say “no,” you follow up again. There's all those little, little, extra steps that other people are doing that I think more folks should know about.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah, and invest their energy in that versus what Danielle said, around the drama in their heads. So, anything else you guys have heard from your experience? Any other nos that we maybe haven't covered? I know there was some of the stuff that Ooshma was talking about, like the type of investors. Maybe we can dive into that a little bit?   Ooshma Garg: Yeah. I think...Well, with regards to the nos that people give, one of the toughest ones is simply just environmental. There are times when you're starting a company, and it's just a rough funding environment where it's just rough for your market. There might be bigger companies who are...for whatever reason, they're not doing well on the public markets, and that's affecting you. So, like the stamina, managing your psychology, being frugal, focusing on just the minimum prototypes, all of that's so important because the main thing you need to get to yes and get funding is time. You can correct a lot of things in the nos overtime, but there's some environmental factors you just have to weather.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Yeah, let's dig into that a little bit more. What do you mean by like, public companies? "How does that impact me? I'm just a two-person start-up, why should I care what Google or Facebook is up to?"   Ooshma Garg: Yeah. Well, hopefully your aspiration is to be a big public company, or to just be a big organization in general, and to be, one day, going from wherever you are to making hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars of value for your shareholders, for your employees, for your customers, and so on. So, investors will look at the current state of the market, at the public market, to understand what's happening in your industry. How are those companies valued? What are your chances of getting there, of breaking out? What is it gonna look like when you IPO? That trickles all the way down and influences your valuation, even as early as at the seed stage. So, it's very well-advised to not be delusional and to take a look at the public markets of your industry—   Poornima Vijayashanker: The landscape, yeah.   Ooshma Garg: —and be able to speak to that. I think people will be very impressed.   Paying For A Previous Founder’s Mistakes   Poornima Vijayashanker: I think another situation is, often, we have to pay for previous mistakes. So, the investor might have invested in a space when it was too young, or maybe the founders that they invested in weren't that knowledgeable or were the first. You know, just a number of factors to where, now, they just aren't willing to look at the space, or even...no matter how amazing you are, they're like, "No, sorry, not interested in the space. You might be amazing, unicorn person, but I'm just gonna say ‘no.’"   Ooshma Garg: I would take that no. It's kinda like in relationships. Someone had some issues with another girl that looked like you, or whatever, like it is not your—   Danielle Morrill: He is never gonna stop saying that.   Ooshma Garg: That is not the best guy for you. So, there are many investor fish in the sea, and I think that's just when the numbers game comes into play, and you have to make sure that you're not just talking to five, you're not talking to 10, but you have a big target list that you're just setting up and rolling through.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Awesome.   Danielle Morrill: I think one other thing that is valid but complicated is, people might say to you, "This isn't venture-backable." I actually think that's very helpful feedback to hear. Whether you agree is sort of beside the point. Find out why they think that. Sometimes, investors know things about markets that you never...can't learn until you're in them for a long time, and they can save you years of your life.   So, part of why people get a bad taste in their mouth often has to do with, like, a poor-margin business that can never get better, or a business that caps out somewhere, and there's this trough of sorrow that seems to go on forever and ever, and you don't get to find out until you're a $50-million company, which is great, except for when you have a huge burn rate and expectations. So, especially if you're entering a market where you're fairly new, maybe you're a software-centric person, but you don't have domain expertise, those types of nos can tell you a ton about things that.   It's easy to say, "I don't care. If I get to $50 million of revenue, I'll deal with that then." And you can still make that decision, but I think the key is to actually make sure you understand that no because they are in the business of billion-dollar outcomes. They might know something that you don't, and they might be able to help you redirect towards something that is worth it.   Poornima Vijayashanker: Alright, well thank you, Danielle and Ooshma, for walking us through all those nos. For all of you out there who are watching, if there was a no that you recently received that maybe we didn't unpack, feel free to share it with us in the comments below this video.   That's it for today's episode. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel where we'll continue the conversation and talk about what it's gonna take to get that yes from an investor. Ciao for now!

What good collaboration should do is inspire you. Today on the podcast I’m talking to co-founder and creative director of Dannijo Jewelry, Danielle Snyder. Dannijo Jewelry has a unique aesthetic and breaks the mold that often restricts high end jewelry and accessories, and it has been worn by everyone from Beyoncé to Taylor Swift.  Danielle is a hustler - she started making jewelry when she was young with her father’s medical tools. She and her sister reunited after college and decided to pursue their passion to create this company. Listen in as we talk about her path to entrepreneurship, her creative process, how the company has used social media, the importance of collaboration, and so much more. I think all the most important aspects of running a business and being an entrepreneur are the things that aren’t necessarily work.

So much so that sometimes she has to say to herself, "Why Not wait?" on certain ideas. The question Danielle immediately asks herself after Why Not Now? WHEN? She gives the idea a birthdate. How to conduct a self-help audit. Do you really need that new book or to hire that person to tell you what you think? How Danielle and Stephen Colbert are a lot alike. I apply 'business speak' to Danielle's esoteric philosophies. What questions to ask yourself if you're tired of grasping, chasing, clinging, grinding and living on the edge. Danielle attended a meeting at the White House and smuggled ____ into her bra. (How's that for a teaser!?) How Danielle keeps her mind healthy. What is Danielle reading?

What kind of topics are worthy of a keynote versus a presentation you would do in a workshop or breakout session? How can you position what you offer so that clients see you as a go-to expert rather than a one-time or infrequent purchase? Both of these questions are key if you’re looking to expand your business and get paid as a speaker. My guest, Danielle Liss, is a lawyer, but don’t worry - she’s not like the attorneys you’ve met at your typical chamber of commerce or networking meeting. Instead, Danielle and her partner have been called “cool lawyers”. That’s because they understand online entrepreneurship and the new economy. In this episode, I help Danielle come up with a messaging strategy to make legal topics less boring and more appealing when she’s pitching to conferences, especially for keynotes, and to podcasts. I also put my business hat on and help Danielle think about a way she can increase her own company’s revenue by offering a new type of service to entrepreneurs who are in a growth stage. We end the episode talking about how and why to track and measure the results of your speaking. About my guest: Danielle Liss is a partner and founder of Hashtag Legal. As former Chief Marketing Officer and General Counsel of FitFluential, an influencer network concentrating on health and wellness initiatives, Danielle has intimate knowledge of the challenges facing influencer networks and social media professionals. Danielle has extensive experience creating and negotiating contracts, interpreting FTC guidelines, and creating website policies. Danielle is also an accomplished speaker and has spoken at dozens of conferences on legal issues related to bloggers and social media professionals.
