Episode 277 The issues keeping you from growing your business are often signs of other things going on. We have so many generational, ancestral, and soul wounds that affect our ability to grow our businesses and we usually can't see them for ourselves. I invited Michele Thomas to the podcast to give you a medical intuitive's perspective on energy blocks, stagnant energies, and how it shows up in our lives. Michele describes a huge benefit of working with a medical intuitive as “putting away all the anchors that are weighing your boat down”. Her guides have shown her it as anchors and if you can release them, it helps you show up and be seen and feel better overall. These “anchors” are different for everyone, but today we're having an honest conversation about the common ones we see in our energy healing businesses and giving you insight about intuition and following yours. The good news is you can let go of all the “stuff” that's holding you back and keeping you tethered so that you can move forward. Highlights you wouldn't want to miss: [2.00] How Michele became a medical intuitive, psychic and transformational coach. [4.59] Developing your psychic gifts is like 6-pack abs. We're all born with it, but some have to develop it more than others. [7.21] Practice is really important for your messages. You don't need an hour to get them and you don't want to stay open all day. [9.16] How the things in your energy field affect your biz. [15.41] Soul wounds, ancestral wounds, women as “over-givers” and the effects it has on pricing your services and self-worth. [20.07] “If you could look in the mirror and just know how divine you are you would stop talking this way about yourself”. [22.14] When you work on being seen and acknowledged there's a different level of connection. [27.41] Feminine wounds and sacral chakra shame and guilt. Stagnant energy gets stuck here! When you can open that up and realign – it opens you up to possibility! [29.33] You can let go of all the stuff that's holding you back and keeping you tethered and not moving you forward. [34.01] If you're here to help people you have to get energy healing work done.

Lead with Love: Creativity, Business & Life with Jadah Sellner
I’m back. I’ve been quiet for awhile. I turned quiet mode all the way on as a form of radical self care. They say grief comes in waves. And if you know me, you know I’ve experienced 3 tragic losses last year. So what happens... when the whole world is grieving? ...when the waves don’t stop crashing? With so much noise and rage and separation, I had to step out of the room to hear my own voice. To connect to my own truth. And reckon with my own anger and sadness. In this episode with my amazing right hand Michele, I’ll share what’s been happening in my world over the past year and what bright new and inspiring things are on the horizon. What you'll hear (and don't want to miss!): :: What’s happened in my world over the past year and the profound losses my family and I have experienced :: My personal healing journey and the critical support I’ve received that has allowed me to do it :: The biggest lesson (and gift) that this time has given me :: What I’ve been creating inside my “creative cocoon” plus a sneak peek of what’s to come :: How Michele and I are both processing Black Lives Matter and the recent events around racial equality :: What “leading with love” really means for me, and a special invitation I have for each listener of this podcast You can find the full show notes from this episode over at: https://jadahsellner.com/im-not-hiding-im-healing-176

Michele Rosenthal joins me today to discuss trauma release and share her passion for helping people resolve their trauma faster and easier. Michele highlights the importance of building a community around a cause related to your business and niche. She shares how she prepares people for client-centered work and the three phases of trauma release. We discuss why it is critical to listen to your client, who will tell you what they need, and allow you to choose the right hypnosis techniques. Michele also shares insights into why she limits conversation about the past and why it is essential to work with clients to help them find and create a new identity. Michele is the founder of My Trauma Coach, where she works as a trauma recovery specialist and certified hypnosis and NLP practitioner. She is a conference and event speaker, writes an award-winning blog, and has authored three books: Before the World Intruded: Conquering the Past and Creating the Future, Your Life After Trauma: Powerful Practices to Reclaim Your Identity, and Heal Your PTSD: Dynamic Strategies that Work. Michele survived something truly horrific at the age of 13 and experienced undiagnosed PTSD for 30 years. During these years, she experienced multiple body and mind conditions and underwent years of therapy. She recognized that her trauma was an addiction and found trauma release through hypnotherapy. This created a passion for writing about her experiences and ultimately led to a career in hypnosis. Michele has an MFA from the University of Vermont and a BA from the University of Pennsylvania.

Michele Fumagalli finally made it to the CrossFit Games as an individual in 2018 after several near misses at Regionals - and sitting out the 2016 to have a baby. But, her Games were cut short when she crashed on her bike a few yards from the finish line during the first event, fracturing her wrist and tearing multiple ligaments. Michele has made the transition from training like a professional athlete to training like an every day athlete. And, in her work as a registered dietitian with her consulting company Fit Plate Nutrition, she helps clients filter the noise on Instagram and blogs while focusing on the most important thing for their specific goals.

Michele knew at a very young age she wanted to be an entrepreneur. Heading her father's construction crew before the age of 20, she wasn't afraid of hard work or manual labor and she had built strong core values. She swapped construction boots for stilettos and started PRIMP, a cheap-chic boutique, in 2010. With eight brick and mortar locations throughout the Midwest, the concept has styled nearly a million women and counting. Her love for all things beauty didn't stop with clothing as she set out to fill a major void in the aesthetics marketplace. After having three children and feeling like an hour-long facial treatment wasn't in the cards, she decided it was time to create a welcoming space where people could get micro treatments at an approachable price point! What You Will Learn: Michele Henry's journey into entrepreneurship How Michele's core values and work ethic helped her overcome the fear of starting a new business The challenges Michele faced while running her business Why Michele decided to leave PRIMP and start a new business The importance of leveraging social media Resources: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michele-h-614700136/ Website: https://thefacefoundry.com/ Core Values | Betting on Yourself A New Legacy Throughout her childhood, Michele Henry spent a lot of time around her parents' business. Because both of them were involved, work-life integration and strong core values formed the glue that held her family together. Michele spent her early days playing Sega Genesis in the back room with her siblings. But by eighteen, Michele was running the construction team by herself—she was damn good at her job. Michele was passionate about her work and loyal to the family but in the back of her mind, she still wanted to make her mark in the world of fashion and beauty. Working in the family business prepared Michele to build her own legacy. It was a difficult decision, but she left her steady paycheck to open a cheap chic boutique called PRIMP and dove in headfirst. Growing as an Entrepreneur Michele went from working with all men to working with all women, and it was a struggle figuring out what she had to do to make things work financially. Michele and her partner were working relentlessly to grow their business and the results showed. One of the main reasons they experienced so much success in their niche is through Michele's ability to leverage social media. It helped grow PRIMP to eight locations across the Midwest along with clever branding and a unique business model. The driving forces, however, were her work ethic and her core values. With Great Risk Comes Great Reward Once PRIMP was an established business, Michele started to explore other avenues in the beauty industry and negotiated an exit strategy with her partner. She broke off to create the Face Foundry, which was a manifestation of her open-air concept for accessible expert skincare. It is hard to leave a sure thing to start something new. There will always be self-doubt and a sense of imposter syndrome when you make that kind of decision. Your core values will be strained, but remember, you are betting on yourself as a business owner. The odds are in your favor.

The Twenty Minute VC: Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch
Michele Romanow is the Founder & CEO @ Clearbanc, the startup that provides entrepreneurs capital to grow without giving up a piece of their company. In 2019 alone, Clearbanc plans to invest $1B in 2,000 companies. To fund these ambitious plans, they have backing from some of the best in the business including Founders Fund, Santi @ Emergence, Social Capital, Precursor Ventures and Y Combinator just to name a few. As for Michele, prior to Clearbanc, she founded SnapSaves, a leading mobile savings platform that was acquired by Groupon. Before Snapsaves, Michele founded Buytopia, one of Canada’s leading e-commerce companies with over 2.5m customers. If that was not enough Michele is also a Dragon on Dragons Den Canada, the youngest dragon ever. In Today’s Episode You Will Learn: 1.) How Michele made her way from serial entrepreneur with exits to Groupon and being a Dragon on Dragons Den to changing the way we fund today's businesses with Clearbanc? 2.) Why does Michele fundamentally believe we need to rethink the way we fund our businesses? Why does giving away equity to buy FC and Google ads not make sense? What is the solution? What types of business with what types of revenue does this work for? Why does Michele believe we need to fundamentally stop celebrating fundraisings? 3.) So if Clearbanc lends on repeatable revenue from Google and Facebook, how does Michele think about the volatility of CACs we see as businesses progress? Is Michele concerned by the large incumbents pushing up CACs on traditional platforms? Investors can also be wise strategic advisors, how does Michele think about the potential loss of these advisors and board members with an alternative financing mechanism? 4.) From Clearbanc's data, what have been the big learnings on how venture is currently distributed across the US? To what extent does Michele believe that unconscious bias pervades into the decision-making of much of venture? What have Clearbanc discovered in terms of the diversity of the founders they back, purely through objective data analysis of their businesses? 5.) How does Michele respond when shit hits the fan? What is her coping mechanism? How would Michele advise young founders today in coping with tough times? What were Michele's lessons from her first sturgeon caviar business not being a success?

My big takeaway from today's call is that the 20% of effort that creates the 80% of your results from video presentations is all stuff that's under your control. It has nothing to do with big budget editing, expensive cameras, snazzy lighting, or anything like that. The critical pieces are the things that you do when you're on camera and how you show up, speak, look, and engage. That is what we cover in today's conversation. In this broadcast, Michele and I talk about: How Michele stepped into the world of acting Why Michele made the switch from actor to coach Where to begin with video presentation How to overcome the fear of the camera and crush your video presentations What types of video you should produce based on your niche and professional skills Presentation strategies for Youtube and Facebook live How to use a video to generate new clients for your business Why tribal rituals are critical for attracting a group of followers The biggest mistakes that people make when they film themselves 4 Quick video presentation tips from Michele: Look at the lens Good lighting (stand in front of the window) Get your hands free / put a video on a stand, so it doesn't shake Make sure your face is large in the frame. Top of head to top of the frame - close the gap.

Profit First in nutshell On this week’s episode, Michele breaks down the “Profit First” approach to running a business by drawing an analogy to a family’s income. When you have a certain amount of money coming into the home, you know you have to budget a certain amount to pay necessities: mortgage, utilities, groceries, etc. It’s the same with a business, you may have $10,000 coming in, but you know you have to pay $2,000 to a vendor. But you rarely think about how much profit you are saving. Michele tells Darla and Natalie that Profit First switches up the mindset of business owners, and tells them they need to sock away a bit of profit every month, to either allow the business to grow, or to pay for unforeseen expenses. And so what you’re doing by prioritizing and saving profit, is you’re investing in the sustainability of your business, and getting off the “living paycheck to paycheck” mentality of many business owners. How to make a Profit First methodology What’s maybe surprising about the Profit First approach is that it’s a literal change to how you manage your money. That may mean setting up a separate account in the bank, or even at another bank if you might be tempted to dip into an account at your current bank. In many ways, Profit First is about organizing your money in a structured way so it cannot slip into other revenue streams. Most of the companies that Michele works with saves between 5% and 10% of their profit. But, as she told Darla and Natalie, not every business can do that. So even if you’re just starting out, putting a few dollars away a month will get the ball rolling.

Hello and welcome to episode 61 of The Couragemakers Podcast! This week I'm chatting to Michelle Madrid-Branch and we're really diving into claiming our own identities and owning our stories. Michelle is an author, speaker, life wellness coach, and global advocate for women and children, living in Santa Barbara, CA, with her husband, children , three dogs and a bunny. Michelle advocates on behalf of women and children who are marginalized and left feeling isolated in our society. Michelle is happiest when using her life journey in an effort to serve others and help others rise up from their pain. She is currently in the process of writing her fourth book. In this episode, Michelle shares her journey, from being born in the UK and placed in the foster care system to being adopted by an American family and learning to untangle labels she had been given and finding her own identity. We really explore the power of owning your story, moving beyond past stories that keep us stuck and changing our lens so we can start to reclaim our lives. Michelle shares what inspires her to work with and advocate on behalf of children without families and the lessons she has learned along the way. She also shares how she has found that every one of us is uniquely qualified to bring something positive into the world, and invites listeners to explore their own unique strengths and gifts. We also have a great conversation about how forgiveness can free us and take us out of our own prisons and how sustainability is key when it comes to building a life you love. This episode is a great reminder that you do have the courage to find your own identity, and to own that identity because no one can give it to you. I loved hearing Michelle's story and how openly she shares about how she found the courage to find the magic in the mess and be who she is. I know you're going to love this episode. Enjoy the show!
