Recorded on 20 October 2022 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar and Q&A with Dr Laura Wood. Danger, fear, conflict, and abuse have sadly impacted many of us, and are often a painful reality for our patients, family, and friends too. This session introduces how the incredible human brain and body adapts to threat, especially during the sensitive developmental window from before birth to around 26 years of age. We will explore what developmental (psychological) trauma can look like, how stress and trauma can affect our biology, and how to support people living in ‘survival-mode'. As we are all humans caring for other humans, this session aims to help us understand both ourselves and others better. Laura Wood is a paediatrician with special interest in human trafficking, childhood trauma recovery and health justice. She is the Research Director and Child & Family Lead at VITA, a clinician-led organisation dedicated to advancing the health and public health approach to human trafficking. Laura is completing her PhD in human trafficking and health with Lancaster University (UK) and is supporting the development of new social medicine and leadership training in the UK.

Bethan talks about her many inspirations deriving from spending time in different countries while travelling. She explains how she lets color speak to her designs and patterns while explaining the design processes of her latest creations. Her love for Mexico strongly comes forward in the conversation and how the Mexican color palette has influenced her work. Bethan has always had an interest in the relation between people and the object and how she can reinforce that relation through time, and of course, color. Bethan Laura Wood has run a multidisciplinary studio since 2009 characterised by materials investigation, artisan collaboration and a passion for colour and detail. Residencies and location-based projects have become an important factor in her design process, often working in response to her location, in collaboration with local manufacturers, or reflecting back into her work the visual and material culture particular to that area. Bethan is fascinated by the connections we make with the everyday objects that surround us and, as a collector herself, likes to explore what drives people to hold onto one particular object while discarding another. Bethan explores these relationships and questions how they might become cultural conduits. She is interested in critical approaches to achieving sustainability within mass consumption and the production-driven context of the design industry.

Join Photographers Without Borders as we discuss leaving a legacy and finding your creative voice on this episode of Storytelling for Change.Laura Wood is a photographer and educator based in South Yorkshire. She is mum to two young boys with motherhood and daily life inspiring much of her photography.  Laura finds catharsis through self-portraiture by taking feelings and emotions out of head and heart and holding a mirror up to herself by way of the camera. This process has given her a tangible way of dealing with everything from sleep deprivation, depression and anxiety to overwhelming love and gratitude. This outpouring of feelings into art has connected her with photographers around the world who share her experiences. These connections told Laura there was a need for further equality and for marginalised gender's voices to be heard more loudly in the industry, so she co-founded a photography community, Phlock Live, with her sister Sarah. Laura is dedicated to elevating the position of photographers - committed to encouraging artists to find their voice and letting it speak loudly through their art. Laura is a firm believer that finding our creative voice is simple when we strip away expectation, pressure and focus solely on instinct, impulse and freedom.

EP 207: 5 Money Shifts I Made To Get To 10 Million

The Business of Becoming with Lori Kennedy

Are you ready to talk about money shifts? Because I sure am.  I am back to talk about hitting the elusive “10 million dollars in revenue” mark, and what changes I had to make, to get there.  While reading this Forbes article a few years back, I read that only 2% of women-owned businesses surpass the $1 million mark. This statistic is one of the reasons that I do what I do, and why it's so important for me to come on here and share my experiences in business growth and financial success. I feel determined to help increase the amount of female-founded businesses to break the $1 million in revenue mark.   Let's start with shift #1... Become familiar with your money story and work through it.  A money story is a personal narrative about money. It makes up your beliefs, thoughts, and feelings about money – and affects your financial behaviors. - Women With Money  What you heard growing up actually plays a huge part of the narrative that you tell yourself around money.  Did you hear your parents fighting about money? Were your parents/guardians in constant fear about not having enough money, or making ends meet? Did your parents say passing comments like “Oh that person must be made of money” or “oh must be nice to be rich”?  These comments shaped your money story, and unless you've gone in and done the work to revise that story, it might be holding you back.  I didn't know I had a money story until I was confronted by it. I was sitting in a boardroom in a fancy California yacht club with 5 other men who were extremely successful. I was standing on the terrace looking at the massive yachts and I said, “I wonder what they do for a living, they must be so wealthy.” Michael, who was standing beside me said, they are no different than you, they put their pants on one leg at time. Do you see them as different from you? Do you believe that you can have this too?  When he asked that last question, I felt like I could burst into tears. I didn't because I was in a room full of men. I didn't at the time. I did not believe that I could be that rich and frankly until I was confronted with it, I was still aiming too small. Think of how you conduct yourself on a daily basis now. Do you procrastinate? Do you avoid following up with potential clients? Do you talk potential clients out of the sale? This shift-- addressing your money story will be the most important thing you can ever do for your business and your life.    Shift # 2: Know your numbers with precision I'm going to let you off the hook here by sharing an embarrassing fact with you. I didn't track anything in my business for years. I didn't have fancy spreadsheets or a pristinely organized Quickbooks account. I had a bank account that had money in it. If there was money in it, I was doing good.  But here's the truth. That is a really stressful way to run and grow a business. So even if you're just starting out, don't make the same mistakes I did.  When you have data, months or better yet, years worth of data, you can see patterns, you'll know that January is a slow month so when you only make half the sales you won't panic. When you track and have metrics you'll be able to plan for slow months by increasing monthly revenue goals in other months so that overall you hit your annual goal.  Tracking your business metrics gives you confidence and security when it comes to making growth-based decisions in your business. When you have historical data, you're able to use that to predict with a degree of certainty.  Let me take a pause here for a minute because tracking your numbers requires you to face your own efforts-- and your money story. If you are not tracking your numbers maybe it's because you think you don't have to or because you're not good at spreadsheets or math or it's boring or whatever… What is the reason you're not tracking?  When we work with clients in Freedom Mastermind and they're all at the multi 6 or 7 figure mark and they aren't tracking we can't effectively guide them. Tying this back to my money story, if I never knew if I made profit then I would never be any different than anyone else. See how this all works? First, I asked Laura Wood, who is our chief revenue officer to share what she tracks, and then I'll bring in Christine, who is the CFO to share what she tracks and how it all ties together.  I can promise you this, the only reason you're not tracking consistently is because of your money story… it's not because you don't know how. If you can do basic math, then you can track.  Ok, moving on.    Shift # 3: Plan for revenue When I first started planning content,  it was ‘fly by the seat of my pants' because I didn't know any better.  What does it mean to plan for revenue?  In order to plan for revenue you need to have set monthly and quarterly revenue targets. You need to know what your monthly rev goal is, how many clients you need to enrol, how many calls you need booked or the number for whatever sales process you have.  If you don't have your monthly target's how are you deciding what promotions to run or what offers to make?  Our content isn't random. It's all intended to support our audience and bring them to a higher level of awareness.  Each month, when we plan out our content, we start with the marketing campaigns that support our sales goals. What are we going to do to ensure that we hit our monthly targets? What content can we create that provides value, that supports our audience's journey and moves them to the next stage in the committed client pipeline. Because I believe that it's my job to bring you to a level of readiness where you want to work with us, then I don't need to sell you.  When we made this switch, from randomly creating content to getting very intentional about it, our content started to work for us, even if it didn't get engagement, the focus of the content and the consistency of the messaging, the repetition of seeing the offer, it works.  When you plan for revenue you can create links between your content and hitting your goals. You'll start to see patterns of what content works best to bring your audience to a higher level of readiness so they take the next step.    Shift # 4: Clean up your backend  You're having guests over but your house is a freaking mess. There's clutter everywhere. Socks all over the place. Mail in the weirdest places and you frantically run around the house and shove shit in drawers, throw it in closets, hide it under the bed. But if heaven forbid someone opened the closet door you'd be mortified.  Ya, is that how your business is looking right now? That's how mine was for a long time. It was like I had this dirty little secret that I was hiding. It made me feel like a fraud. Like who am I to be giving all of this business advice when my house is a mess.  Cleaning up your backend looks very similar to cleaning out a house, one room, one drawer at a time. Does this stay, do we need it or can it go?  Your business has departments whether you recognize them as such or not. You have a marketing department, sales department, customer service department, client services department, finance and administration departments.  Cleaning up the backend means working through each department and creating systems and processes to be followed so that as you grow you update the systems and processes.  Cleaning up your back end means thinking through what happens, what is the journey in every area of your business. Yes, that sounds overwhelming, but if you take it one system at a time, then it's not.  If your current container is about to burst, then you need to clean up your backend before you grow otherwise your container will explode and you won't be able to repair it.  Growing quickly comes with a cost too… constantly needing to repair the business systems, processes and team.  And this brings me to my last big shift and boy oh boy was this a bigggg one.    Shift # 5 is everything… Invest in team growth. Let me just say that I would not be where I am today if I didn't have this team of unicorns supporting the vision and the growth of the company. At the time of recording this, I have 33 full-time team members and a couple of freelance contractors that we regularly do work with.  YOUR job is to be the visionary, to market, sell and serve. That's your job. Anything over and above that is someone else's job and it's your responsibility not to become the bottleneck in your business.  When you're growing, over the 6-figure mark, your biggest investment will be in your team. As it should be because they are the ones who are going to help you get to where you want to be.  Get yourself to 6-figures first and then start asking the question, how do I build a team that can get the company ahead?  Invest in the people who will help you actualize your vision and you'll see how much faster you can grow.  Ok, those were the 5 big shifts that helped me get to 10 million in revenue,   Shift # 1: Become familiar with your money story and work through it  Shift # 2: Know your numbers with precision Shift # 3: Plan for revenue Shift # 4: Clean up your backend  Shift # 5:  Invest in team growth.   If you are sub $100,000 and you want to hit 6-figures, within the next 12 months, then I encourage you to book a fast track mentorship call with us and ask how we can support you. There are two ways to work with me, so make sure you share where you are now and what your goals are.

DescriptionIn this episode we are in conversation with Laura Wood and Paul Pentelow, Co-Founders of Invisible Creations a design company with a stated purpose to 'Design for Dignity'. The idea for Invisible Creations® was created in the National Housing Federation's innovation programme in 2018.  The initiative was supported by the social housing sector and the company was formally founded as a new startup in January 2020.Laura, Paul and the team are driven by a desire to bring dual purpose, high-quality thoughtfully and empathetically designed products to the homes of elderly people, enabling them to maintain their independance and to live life to the full.  This quote, taken from their website sums up their value driven approach to their business "Older people have been poorly served for too long with products that are stigmatising, clinical and downright ugly. We're here to end it. Our aim is to completely disrupt a market that fosters negative stereotypes and makes people feel vulnerable." What is interesting is neither Paul or Laura  come from Design backgrounds. Paul  left Salford University with a Degree in Sports Management and Laura was an English teacher with a background in Marketing and Comms; yet both have found themselves motivated to work in an area that really makes a positive impact on peoples lives. Our discussion takes us through a design process from identification of a design area ripe for exploration, through design to manufacture and marketing. Invisible Creations is a young company with a vision and a passion for what they do that comes over strongly in the podcast. Their website details a very personal story of Laura's nan Sheila. Sheila's story describes an independant, proud woman who did not feel that she should submit to ugly, stereotyped clinical design that "labelled me as old and infirm". Sheila's story can be echoed by millions of pensioners nationally, Invisible Creations was founded to help people like Sheila.

In this Podcast episode we are joined by the fabulously talented, warm, generous and open hearted powerhouse, and professional photographer Laura Wood. We get to hear what this interesting year so far has shown Laura, the importance of breathing, and speaking your truth whilst not diminishing others. Laura speaks on creating a dynamic online community that feels safe for people to show up in, how it’s ok to express yourself and indulge in life’s pleasures, and moving beyond people pleasing.Laura is a photographer and educator based in South Yorkshire, England. She is mum to two young boys with motherhood and daily life inspiring much of her photography. Finding catharsis through self-portraiture Laura takes feelings and emotions out of her head and heart and holds a mirror up to herself by way of the camera. This process has given her a tangible way of dealing with everything from sleep deprivation, depression and anxiety to overwhelming love and gratitude. This outpouring of feelings into art has connected her with womxn around the world who share her experiences. These connections told Laura there was a need for further equality and for womxn’s voices to be heard more loudly in the industry, so she co-founded a photography community for womxn, Phlock Live, with her sister Sarah. Laura is dedicated to elevating the position of womxn in photography - committed to encouraging womxn to find their voice and letting it speak loudly through their art. Laura is a firm believer that finding our voice is simple when we strip away expectation and pressure, and focus solely on instinct, impulse and freedom. No more people pleasing or trying to be the "good girl".Links to Laura Wood:https://www.instagram.com/ourkiddo/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/phlocklive/?hl=enLinks to When Women Speak:Website ~ https://www.wwsgn.com/Facebook private group ~ https://www.facebook.com/groups/whenwomenspeakFacebook public page ~ https://www.facebook.com/whenwomenspeakglobalnetworkEmail ~ hello@wwsgn.comSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=hello%40wwsgn.com¤cy_code=GBP&source=url)

Can you believe it?  We are already a few days into 2020 -- and into a whole new decade! Time for big changes, right?  Which is why I wanted to kick off this new decade with a special episode of The Business of Becoming.  Whether you're just starting out with your online business or if you've been in this game for a while, I wanted to share with you some of the most important lessons my leadership team and I  learned in 2019. In this episode, I bring together my C-suite team of Michelle Waithe, Christine Labate and Laura Wood to give you a behind-the-scenes look at what we focused on as we grew the company in the past year -- and the lessons we've learned along the way. You'll get the perspective of four different people who have four different roles in the company. We talk about everything from numbers to mindset to working as a team. This episode was so much fun to record because I have been through thick and thin with these amazing women over the years -- and none of us has an MBA or any of those things you think you need to run a business. We do it all with a growth mindset based on our core values -- and we know when to get help from experts when we need it to scale our business.   It's this mindset that has helped us to grow into a multi-million dollar business. There are so many lessons and insights in this episode to help you navigate your own journey -- whether you're a solo entrepreneur or have a team -- so make sure you hit pause when you need to and take lots of notes.   What We Talk About In This Episode: How there was a natural progression to move into C-suite roles over time as the company grew into a multi-million dollar corporation. (C-suite roles are those executive-level roles that start with “C” -- like CEO, COO and so on.) How you can be serious about your business yet still share screaming goat videos. How we grew from ten team members at the start of 2019 to almost thirty by the end of the year. Why processes and systems are key to weathering any storm -- personal or business -- in your online health and wellness business. Why nothing deserves the level of stress and panic that people put themselves through when things go wrong.  (Hint: Nothing is an emergency.) How you learn over time that worrying about a problem doesn't actually help to solve it in any way. Why you need to have contingency plans in place when planning out your goals. How using your core values as your guiding principles -- and removing the “feelings” -- can help you make better business decisions. Why it's okay to completely pivot on a decision when you realize it doesn't feel right. What advice the C-suite team would give themselves if they could go back in time. Why you need to ask experts for help as you continue to grow your business at any level.   Things We Mention In This Episode: 10K Success System   Here's How To Subscribe & Leave A Review (pretty-please): Want to get notified when I release new episodes so you don't miss a thing?

In this week's episode of The Business of Becoming, we go over the final three pillars in my 5 Pillar Health Expert Business Model and then we bring it all together by showing you how to create your own Impact Plan. We start by digging deep into Pillar #3, which is where you invite your potential client to take action, whether it's to sign up for a free call, join a webinar or sign up for your signature program. We get into my 2-Part Yes Process -- which contains my five-step process to structuring a sales conversation. Yup, I want you to have a sales conversation.  In fact, I want you to get excited about having a sales conversation -- and my process will help you feel more comfortable about doing them. Pillars #4 and #5 show you how to create a scalable expert methodology -- what we call your signature program -- that you can use with all your clients, as well as how to bring them beyond that program and into even further transformation. And then I show you how to bring together everything you've learned in this mini series into one powerful Impact Plan to keep you focused on growing your business. Get ready for plenty of AHA moments as you listen to this episode, and don't forget to download the worksheets that go along with the episode (you'll find them down below).   What We Talk About In This Episode: We go over Pillar #3 of the Health Expert Business Model -- which is where you put out the invitation to sign up for something, whether it's to book a call, sign up for a webinar or buy your signature program. How the 2-Part Yes Process takes away that yuck, salesy feeling when it comes to sales. (Hint: you shouldn't even be trying to convince people to work with you.) We dig deep into the five-step process to structure sales conversations that you can use as a framework to create your own sales conversations. The big mistake most health practitioners, coaches, and fit pros make when having a sales conversation -- and what you need to do instead. The type of question you need to ask that will help you understand your prospective client's problem better. How to flip the conversation from what their problem is to what their life would be like if they didn't have that problem. How to qualify their level of commitment to making a change -- and why you want to work with people who are committed to making that change. The part of the sales conversation where most people start sweating, and the steps to take to switch your mindset when the conversation makes you feel uncomfortable. The types of questions to ask when talking about your program, so you don't feel salesy. What you need to have once your potential client gives you a solid “YES”. Why you need to have a scalable expert methodology -- or as we call it, a signature program -- in order to create an impactful and thriving business. How you can create a signature program even if you think your client needs personalization (no matter your designation or licensing regulations). How you can use the Boomerang Effect that leaves clients asking you, “What's next? How can I continue working with you?” How to take everything we talked about in this series to create your own Impact Plan, which is your personal roadmap to keep you on track. The one thing you need to do to put that plan Impact Plan into action.   Things We Mention In This Episode: 10K Success System The 5 Pillars Worksheet The Impact Plan The Evolutionary Timeline   Episode #140: The Evolution of the Business of Health Part 1 Episode #141: The Evolution of the Business of Health Part 2 Episode #142: The Evolution of the Business of Health Part 3   Here's How To Subscribe & Leave A Review (pretty-please): Want to get notified when I release new episodes so you don't miss a thing?

This week we're continuing with Part 3 of our four-part podcast on The Evolution of the Business of Health. We're going to show you the right way to attract, edu-tain and nurture your ideal client as they come into your online world. If you haven't listened to Part 1 or Part 2 yet, make sure you listen to those first.  (This entire four-part podcast is based on my 7-part video mini series called The Evolution of the Business of Health.) In the last episode, I went over the #1 predictor of success -- and then the amazing Laura Wood joined me so we could go through the top ten things NOT TO DO if you want to be successful. (Laura is the Director of our 10K Success System.) So, this week, we're going to focus on what you need TO DO if you want an impactful and thriving online business in the health and wellness industry. In this episode, I walk you through Pillars #1 and #2 from my 5 Pillar Health Expert Business Model. These first two pillars will give you tons of clarity on how to get your ideal client to pay attention to you -- and how to get them to know, like and trust you.  (What we call KLT, for short!) We also dig deep into my Story Selling System -- that's my five-story system that helps you build rapport with your potential clients. You're going to want to take plenty of notes, so make sure you have a pen and plenty of paper on hand. Hit pause and rewind when the brainstorming starts -- and then keep hitting that play button to keep the ideas flowing. Stay tuned next week for the final installment of the series!   What We Talk About In This Episode: Before we get into Pillars #1 and #2, we talk about your ideal client avatar and how it's critical to have one before creating anything.   Why so many people make the mistake of building a website and creating all kinds of social media first -- and what you should do instead. The first thing you need to do to bring people into your world and enroll them into your signature program. Two important reasons why your emails and social media content is falling flat -- and what you can do to fix the problem. How you can use Google Search to figure out the words your ideal client is using to describe their problem, so you can talk to them using words that resonate with them.. The reaction you'll get from your followers that lets you know you're creating content that resonates with them. What to do with your ideal clients before you even talk about your signature program. We take a deep dive into the five stories that make up our Story Selling System -- and how these stories build trust and rapport between you and your potential clients. The big difference between teaching and edutaining - and why it's not enough just to teach people. How you want your potential clients to feel when you share your five stories with them. How to dig into your own backstory and journey of discovery so your potential clients can relate to you and understand that you have the solution to their problem. How Pillars #1 and #2 -- along with the five-story Story Selling System -- help build a level of trust and awareness, so your ideal clients are going into the enrollment process (Pillar #3) understanding that they need your program to solve their problem.   Things We Mention In This Episode: 10K Success System Episode #140: The Evolution of the Business of Health Part 1 Episode #141: The Evolution of the Business of Health Part 2   Here's How To Subscribe & Leave A Review (pretty-please): Want to get notified when I release new episodes so you don't miss a thing?

In this week's episode, we continue with Part 2 of our deep dive into the Evolution of the Business of Health by exploring the reasons why so many smart, qualified and purpose-driven practitioners, coaches, and fit pros fail when there's an abundance of opportunities for us out there. If you haven't listened to Part 1 in the podcast series, then click here to go back and listen to that one first -- or you can listen to it after you listen to this one. Whatever works for you! It's never been easier to start and grow a business in the health and wellness industry but I see too many of you start to doubt yourselves and let the fear take over.  So, I share with you the #1 indicator that will predict your success. And no, it doesn't involve Facebook groups and it doesn't depend on the size of your email list. Not even close. As you listen to the first part of the episode, I invite you to let down your guard and be open to what we're sharing because this may trigger some of you when we talk about self-belief and confidence.  I get super vulnerable, too, by sharing a deeply personal story of how my business journey started. I want to show you that you're not alone with your doubts and fears. We then shake things up a bit -- literally, if you play along during the episode --  when we get into my three-step technique to create your own personal anchoring experience.  Yup, music is involved and we'll dance it out a bit. Then, the head of my 10K Success System -- the ah-mazing Laura Wood -- joins me to have a bit of fun with a David Letterman-style bit called, The Top 10 Things You Need You To Stop Doing Now If You Want to Be Successful.  It's not just a simple list though -- we get into why you need to stop doing these things, too. You might want to listen to this episode a couple of times, so be sure to download it -- and click here to get the worksheet that goes along with this episode. Take notes. Lots of notes. Then, pick out your favorite song and dance it out...   What We Talk About In This Episode: The number one predictor of success -- and no, it has nothing to do with your business skill set, level of expertise or startup budget. The powerful exercise I use with my clients when they are two miles away from the finish line and start to freak out. My own story of what it's like to believe in yourself before you have any certainty -- and before you have any money or support. The three-step technique we use to build the requirement for success. How confidence actually works -- and the four C's to grow your confidence that I learned directly from one of my greatest mentors. The reason why so many smart, qualified and purpose-driven practitioners, coaches, and fit pros fail. I share with you my anchor experience -- including my anchor song --  that helps shift my state of being into a more positive one. Plus I give you examples you can draw on to create your own anchor experience. The top ten things you need to stop doing right now if you want to be successful.   Things We Mention In This Episode: 10K Success System Episode Worksheet: The Guide to Creating Self Belief & Acquiring Confidence Lori's Instagram Feed Episode #140: The Evolution of the Business of Health Part 1   Here's How To Subscribe & Leave A Review (pretty-please): Want to get notified when I release new episodes so you don't miss a thing?

Bethan Laura Wood talks about her love for the material that made her name nearly a decade ago – laminate. A wide-ranging (and occasionally hugely intimate) discussion touches on her fascination with turning the ubiquitous into the precious, as well as focussing on her love of colour. However, she also tells us about her childhood growing up a little bit different in Shrewsbury, how being teased at school encouraged a sense of style that she has described as ‘Buckaroo meets Russian dolls’, and why her dyslexia may have encouraged a fascination with pattern. Oh and we also hear about her mother’s collection of fake fruit, which can’t be a bad thing. It’s a fascinatingly personal story from a genuinely unique design talent.
