When COVID-19 hit, Laura Di Franco immediately had to shut down her physical therapy business. She took that opportunity to focus on another project she had been working on since 2015 — Brave Healing Productions, a publishing company for health practitioners who use holistic approaches to physical healing. It was a leap of faith that Laura didn't mind taking because she already had a highly developed sense of awareness a tool that she uses to help entrepreneurs in health-based practices achieve their professional goals of sharing their story, building their business, and changing their world. "With awareness you have a choice, awareness is everything," she said. "Awareness is the practice of healing." Like everyone who experiences self-doubt, usually from listening to the little devil who sits on our shoulder, Laura is occasionally tinged with uncertainty about her next steps. But as someone who has published more than 67 collaborations and written 13 bestselling books on Amazon, Laura's perspective and guidance offer something valuable to everyone who listens. In this episode of Chiseled, Laura speaks about how to build a purpose-driven life, how to knock out fear and self-sabotage, and how to recognize when your discernment and intuition are working for you. There are times in our lives when we meet kindred spirits. Laura is one of those for me. She has one of the clearest senses of mission and purpose as I have ever seen, and her capacity to help people overcome their self-limiting thoughts is a gift on display in this week's podcast. Want to find out how to connect with Laura? You can reach out to her on her website LauraDiFranco.com or on LinkedIn. She is happy to talk about book ideas and publishing, or just to have a brain-picking session.

Doug Bennett interviews holistic health expert and award-winning publisher Laura Di Franco. They discuss the importance of setting and achieving goals, journaling, and treating the whole being for optimal health. Laura shares her insights on building a successful business, the mind-body connection, and the power of self-love. KEY TAKEAWAYS  Writing down goals is crucial for success; it sends a message to your subconscious that you're serious about achieving them. Building a strong team is essential for business growth, especially for solopreneurs with many ideas. Holistic health involves treating the whole being, including the physical body, mind, and soul, for optimal healing and performance. Self-love and self-care are the foundation for spreading love and positivity in the world. Journaling is a powerful tool for self-awareness, channelling creativity, and moving energy. Overthinking can hinder progress; focus on the present moment and take action instead of worrying about potential outcomes. Your purpose has a face and a name. Learn to understand your ideal client or audience on a deep, personal level to create meaningful offerings. Building communities and collaborating with others can help holistic health professionals share their messages and grow their businesses. BEST MOMENTS "When it's out loud, it's real. When you put it out of your head and you get it into black and white on the screen, the paper... That's an awareness tool." "If I wasn't helping the whole being... if I was not going to treat these clients as a whole, I would be missing something really important."   "Fall in love with yourself. And then, you know, watch the laser beam of light that you are for that love in the world."  "I write to feng shui my soul first. Like, it's not about really that important thing that's in there, because if it's that important, you'll find it. You'll go back and you'll find the notes. It's more about the process of moving the energy."   "We're better together. And so that helps, I think a little to understand who I'm serving”   EPISODE RESOURCES VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: http://dougbennett.co.uk/ Email: doug@dougbennett.co.uk LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/financialdoug/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/FinancialDoug Facebook Wealth Tribe: https://join.dougbennett.co.uk/ Download Your "Ten-Step Guide To Financial Freedom" Here: https://bit.ly/Struggle-Success BOOKS: Goals Do Come True is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3phcy6Z Think Simple, Win Big is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Think-Simple-Win-Big-Business/ Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday.

Laura Di Franco is your soul's voice doula and CEO of Brave Healer Productions, an award-winning publisher for holistic health and wellness professionals since 2016. The mission is to wake the world up to what's possible for healing. She and her community of over 2000 expert authors are leaving that legacy together, one brave word at a time, in over 70 books so far. Laura retired her hands and her private practice in 2020 after a 30-year career in holistic manual physical therapy. She's a divorced mom (two adult kids, one dog), a spoken-word poet, a 13-time Amazon bestselling author, speaker, a third-degree black belt in Taekwondo, a podcaster, and a dark chocolate lover. Aside from her profound passion for poetry, her favorite things to write are blogs on business strategy, holistic healing, or the magic of manifestation—sometimes all at once. She was born in San Francisco, the daughter of a golf-loving hairstylist and a nature-loving real estate appraiser. She has a secret passion for Feng Shui after training at The School of Intention, and an intensely inspirational addition to blogging after graduating from SmartBlogger's Freedom Machine and Certified Content Marketer programs. Laura was born to help you share your brave, badass words and work with the world in a much bigger way. She'll help you have fun with your purpose-driven fear of not-good-enough. Your words change the world when you're brave enough to share them. It's time to be brave.

I can't WAIT for you to meet Randy and learn about his story. Here's a teaser of some of the things we talk about in today's episode: - How to use the “+2 Strategy” to transform your life (not hyperbole, this concept is changing everything for me and everyone I share it with… I'm redesigning big chunks of my life and business around this concept) - How to go bigger with your goals so you can give bigger with your profits… and why businesses with giving initiatives outperform companies that don't - What Randy learned from hiking 29,029 feet in 36 hours (the height of Mt. Everest) and how he spent $50 on ice cream to make a MASSIVE impact If you're someone who's passionate about making a difference in the world and becoming a transformed human in the process, this is an episode for you!

One day, Laura Di Franco received a FB Messenger request from a stranger: Hey Laura, I read your “Mind Body Green” blog and loved it. I was wondering if you had any other links for me to read…. I'm a mom of 5, and I've been struggling a little bit with some depression. Not only did Laura respond, but she ended up writing a blog post about self care and dedicated it anonymously to Shirley. After reading the outpouring of support in both the post and in the comments, Shirley ended up overcoming her depression and sharing her journey in her own writing. But here's the crazy part: Eventually, Shirley confided to Laura that she was in the process of writing a suicide note to her husband and 5 children when she sent that FB message… … and it was because of what Laura did that she finally didn't feel alone anymore. Friends… Your words, your content, your stories have the power to save lives. And THAT is what this episode is all about. Laura Di Franco is the CEO of Brave Healer Productions. She has personally authored 13 books, and her company has published over 74 Amazon bestselling books with a global community of over 1,000 authors. Not only will you learn how YOU can start sharing your stories to create an impact, but you'll also learn a BUNCH of other nuggets along the way, including… - Why Laura has a feather tattoo with the initials “YFIB” engraved, and what that has to do with helping you to embrace your fear - How to make a “yes” or “no” decision when you are unsure of the answer - What Laura has learned about healing and content creation along her journey of becoming a 3rd degree black belt … and so much more.

The Book Leads – Episode 66 – Heidi Metro & The Energy of Money: A Spiritual Guide to Financial and Personal Fulfillment by Maria Nemeth I recently sat down with Heidi, a visionary and CEO of When You Lead: Coaching & Consulting, to discuss the book and how important it is to lead in a new, updated way that goes beyond the old-fashioned and outdated take on leadership. That's what Heidi and her team are all about, in both how they lead themselves and coach their clients. And what's great about the book is that, although it covers money, the lessons extend well beyond that to a way of being and living. Leadership – what it is and what is means – is evolving rapidly, especially with the changes in the world resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Heidi and her team are ensuring those lessons are not lost but instead amplified with priority and awareness. The Midwest, anxiety and depression, philosophy, seasons, empowered women, and sensitive men are all part of this discussion and mixed in. Heidi and I left no stone unturned – for the time we had here. We jump from topic to topic. Everything is applicable and these mindsets are transferrable across experiences and environments. Most of all, though, the importance of listening to our bodies and our deeper selves is mentioned throughout the conversation. That idea has come up many times in this series – listening to ourselves. But Heidi takes it a step deeper to discuss the physiology at work and how we can tap into the feelings we have to discover what's driving us forward or holding us back. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Whenever "something doesn't feel right" shows up, there's an opportunity for a system update within you Leaders need to know how their bodies work Anxiety & Depression -- barometers to measure going toward or away from her inner knowing Tools, if you don't have any of the physiology and philosophy, are just more information. The MAIN QUESTION that underlies my conversation with Heidi is, How (and how well) are you listening to your body to determine what it is you need for yourself? ABOUT HEIDI Heidi is the visionary and CEO of When You Lead: Coaching & Consulting. With an infectious passion for empowering leaders and professionals, she's a driving force, redefining the landscape of leadership from the inside out! When You Lead isn't just your run-of-the-mill company; it's a transformative experience that unlocks each individual's natural and unique potential, allowing them to become the unrivaled gurus of their own lives. Heidi firmly believes that when high achievers and passionate souls possess the mindset, toolset, and skillset of strengths-based leadership, the ripple effect is felt throughout their lives, careers, and communities. Nestled in a cozy Midwestern town, Heidi lives with her partner, their three children, and two pooches. When she's not creating from her home studio, you might find her browsing a nearby indie bookstore, dreaming over a backyard bonfire, or participating in local community-building events. As a life-long learner, you never know what Heidi is brewing up next! Heidi is a coauthor of mine on the book The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Successful Soul Professional: 22 Powerful Growth Strategies for Upleveling Your Soul-Aligned Business. I got to know her a little better when she and I appeared on a podcast with the publisher of the book, Laura Di Franco, to promote the book. Check out that episode HERE!

The Book Leads - Episode 67: Holly Jackson & Her Book, Inspiration Contagion: Health Secrets For Raving Success In this episode, Holly, a Revenue Maximizer, Bestselling Author, and Podcast Host, walks me through her life's challenges and lessons that have lead her into the work she's doing now, the book she's written (with more to come), and the movement she's created. She's another great example of an author who is putting to the page the lessons that have helped them to help others streamline their own journey and life pain points. And we can use Holly's lessons to tackle most of the challenges in life, including overcoming fear. And she's practicing what she preaches. (I mean, how often has anyone had to give their Tedx Talk twice because the first one wasn't recorded?) This episode is another great reminder for all of us to share the lessons we've learned in life while sharing our own story. Sure, they may not resonate with everyone who hears them. But there will be someone who needs to hear pieces of what we have to share -- especially when it comes to minimizing their pain (whatever form it might take). It's also a great reminder of how often we need to take our own advice and medicine, remembering the lessons we've learned along the way -- even us coaches. We often aren't cognizant of how much is in our control and all the various pieces that go into building a sound life. I love how well-rounded Holly's book is, covering such things as sleep, self care, self-talk, chronic pain, among many others, and all shared with a the foundation of inspiration underneath them to guide us toward respecting our lives by using the tools we've been gifted for it. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS “… any time you try to force something, have you not learned to let go and trust?”     How the book is "...authentic, vulnerable, real, and raw so others who are suffering realize they're not alone." The difference between being a "How are you?" person and one who wants to ask, "What is new in your world?" Stopping a charging bear. The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Holly is, Are we taking a holistic approach when we step back, assess, and manage the challenges in our life? ABOUT HOLLY Holly Jean Jackson is a Revenue and Performance Consultant, International & TEDx Speaker, Podcast Host of Inspiration Contagion, Best Selling Author, and founder of Business Builder Throw Down. Her career spans from technology to communications as well as organizational change, public relations and content strategy. In her Peak Performance Blueprint, she looks at a holistic and logistical approach to success. Business owners hire her to master the art and science of real success because most lack direction, action, and results. So, she helps define and design a business roadmap for impactful visibility, intentional profitability, and endless sustainability. I met Holly through publisher and business strategist Laura Di Franco , whom I met while contributing my own chapter to the book The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Successful Soul Professional: 22 Powerful Growth Strategies for Upleveling Your Soul-Aligned Business, a book for which Laura was the publisher and Camille L. Miller, MBA, Ph.D. ABD, the lead author. I had a conversation with Camille in Episode 58 of this series.

The Book Leads – Episode 55: Erin Harrigan & Her Book, Pursuing Success God's Way: A Practical Guide to Hustle with Heart In this conversation, Erin, a Christian business coach, shares how she was called to the work she's doing now, trading in the traditional definition of success for doing God's work while making an impact in the lives of others. The driving need for success in our culture can do us in -- as evidenced by so many stories in previous episodes of The Book Leads. Erin's story presents another lesson in reinvention as a result of burnout, coming out the other end of those challenges by finding God later in her career. Erin seemed to find her faith at the precise moment she needed it, then sharing those lessons with other women seeking to elevate their business and their faith simultaneously. Whatever your faith may be, most of us have something that is calling to us, whether it be that faith, goals, tradition, or legacy. Our unique desires don't match up to society's definitions and stories of success. It's hard to step away from that when it's all we've known. But it is possible. The best part about those stories of people finding their calling mid-career is that when they do find what they're meant for, they hit it with everything they've got and make the greatest impact. It reinforces the idea that all those struggles and all that suffering weren't in vain. Episode Highlights The evolving definition of success and what it means to us. The power of Yielding Your Fruit -- one of the 5 principles she outlines in her book for pursuing success God's way. You have something you can share that is unique to you. How are you sharing it? Erin works in the space where business and faith don't understand each other, where one feels there's no place for the other. To demonstrate that they can coexist is her calling. The MAIN QUESTION that underlies my conversation with Erin is, Whether for yourself, others, or a higher power, what is the driver behind your wanting to achieve “success”? About Erin Erin Harrigan is a Christian wife, empty nest mom, speaker, author and business coach on a mission to help high-achieving Christian women level up their businesses without compromising their faith. Bringing to bear her 30+ years of corporate work and 10+ years of network marketing, she helps women be more focused and fruitful by aligning business strategy and goals to God's truth through her customized business coaching, speaking and award-winning podcast, Redefining Hustle: Pursuing Success as a Christian Woman. Erin is the author of Pursuing Success God's Way: A Practical Guide to Hustle with Heart.

Most writers feel that writing and publishing one book is a big enough accomplishment in itself. I'm excited that my guest today is here to help us think about another strategy that can involve a lot more people and produce books more quickly. The strategy and type of book we're talking about is an anthology series. As you might already know, an anthology is a book that contains chapters or sections by different authors. My guest is Laura Di Franco. She is the owner of Brave Healer Productions where she'll help you share your story, build your business, and change the world. Laura is a multiple-time Amazon bestselling author with three decades of expertise in holistic physical therapy, a third-degree black belt, and 30 published books. She is a champion of entrepreneurs who want to grow their health-based practices. Her publishing services, collaborative book projects, writing workshops and retreats, business strategy sessions, and online writing circle are just some of the ways she helps talented professionals maximize their professional impact. In this conversation, Laura shares why anthologies are such a valuable type of book, how the process works when you have multiple authors involved, how you can get started, and the details of how to make this model work financially.

Laura's up to some cool stuff, way too much to fit inside this podcast. She has a 30-year background in holistic physical therapy and has been a healer her whole life. Laura has also been writing and publishing her own books for quite some time and published her first book back in 2012. Brave Healer Productions was born in 2016 while she was still running her physical therapy practice. She started helping other healers write their copy and books, assisted them with publishing, and was involved in several complications with other authors. In January of 2020, Laura launched a number-one Amazon best-seller compilation book and has now published 29 best-selling collaborative books within the healing space. From a high-ticket perspective, Laura quickly created the model that is now a staple in her business. When she ran her first project, she was the lead author of the collaboration. She then proceeded to release several volumes, as she wanted to provide a healing toolkit that would work for a wide audience. Laura's strategy is a high-ticket program that's a triple win. It makes her money while giving her other authors recognition, and provides them with a book to sell on their own to turn a profit. She shares how she built her strategy, how she's scaling her business, and how she's able to provide huge value for those she works with.What's Inside:How Laura launched her business and complications with other authors in the healing space.Why Laura's high-ticket strategy is a triple-win.How Laura was able to scale her purpose-driven business.Mentioned In This Episode:Ray.fmBrave Healer Productionssupport@lauradifranco.com
