On today's episode, we have two very special guests who, as we say, renovated and lived to tell about it.Megan Gillespie is a mama to an almost 2-year-old and a Real Estate Agent in the Olympia WA area. She is a co-host of the Boss Ladies and Babies podcast with her bestie where they talk about breaking the motherhood mold and balancing it all. She’s been married to her handy hubby for almost 5 years and they love to work on home projects together. She designs and he does the work. It sounds like a great partnership to me!Our other guest is Mikki Flaherty who is a mama of 2, wife of almost a decade, and a small business owner. She and her husband are renovating their fixer-upper, which is no small feat with 2 young children. She’s the other co-host of the Boss ladies and babies podcast and today, the two BFFs are switching things up. Instead of sharing their journey through motherhood and building their businesses, they’re sharing their home improvement stories with us.LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE>>The Renovation Planner™ >>Megan Gillespie @KeepingItRealEstate360>>Mikki Flaherty @FixerupsandSippycups>>@BossLadiesandBabies Podcast>>Shop for Your HomeSOCIAL MEDIA LINKS>> Facebook>> Instagram>> YouTube

Have you been taught limiting beliefs? Did you know limiting beliefs don’t come from God?

In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.  Matthew 5:14-16 ESV I’m never going to leave you without asking you to get into action.  Nothing happens without action, and I’m here to be your accountability partner.

In light of current events, I was thinking about how race has played a part in my business. In today's episode, I discuss how I used to get calls from Realtors requesting that I stage a house for a Chinese Buyer. I know how to stage a house, but how do you stage a house specifically for a Chinese buyer? There’s really no way to do that. What you want to do is design to attract the right demographic of buyers, not ethnicity because if you’re designing for ethnicity, it’s really all based on stereotypes and that’s not right and won’t work. Design for resale based on the type of property and the price point because the listing price will determine the level of finishes you should incorporate into the home. Although you don't design for a specific ethnic background, there are practices that have been incorporated into real estate such as Feng Shui that should definitely be taken into consideration. Listen to today's episode to learn about why focusing on creating value and the aspirational lifestyle that we all want in a home is the goal rather than considering ethnicity in the design.LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE>>The Renovation Planner™ >>Shop for Your HomeSOCIAL MEDIA LINKS>> Facebook>> Instagram>> YouTube

In today's episode, I talk you through Who's Who on the Home Renovation Team. You will be amazed by the number of different people that can and will be involved in your home renovation project. This is because no one person is skilled in all aspects of the project. Everyone in the construction industry has an area of expertise. Just like in medicine where there are many specialties such as oncology, pediatrics, or cardiology, the same is true in the construction industry. There are many “handy” folks who know a lot about various aspects of construction, but there are occasions when a true specialist would be advisable or required.Listen to today's episode to find out who the Players are on Your Home Renovation Team. There are the usual suspects in a typical home renovation project such as a General Contractor, Electrician, or Plumber and there are many other specialty Trades that are used for very specific projects.LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE>>The Renovation Planner™ >>Shop for Your Home>>Episode 4: 6 Common Renovation Mistakes Homeowners Make that Land them in Renovation PurgatorySOCIAL MEDIA LINKS>> Facebook>> Instagram>> YouTube

We are into the 9th week of shelter in place here in California. The State of California just lifted the ban on construction last week, so the City offices have reopened and inspections are back on the calendars. But, everything is not back to business as usual just yet.The biggest challenge, beyond getting inspections to move forward with renovation projects, is getting materials. Choices are limited as many businesses were closed for many weeks. All retail stores were closed. Some are starting to reopen and some are available on an appointment-only basis. Many were and still are only available on a delivery basis to limit interaction at their establishment.So, in today's episode, I'm sharing my top resources for shopping for your home renovation during this coronavirus pandemic.

One of the best ways to get your product featured is by growing your brand’s following. If you want to build your brand while selling your product on Amazon, you also need to honor their Terms of Service (TOS).

Some people follow their faith, other’s are more focused on making the most of their life, whatever you believe, you need to have a moral center that will help you make difficult decisions.

Hello friends!   I literally can't believe it's almost the end of the year!  It's wild how much has happened, but the thing I'm most proud of EASILY is truly honoring my energy and my needs this year after the bigness 2018 asked of me.  Restoration has been the name of the game and I'm so grateful for that as it's been instrumental for me replenishing and gathering all my wisdom into a potent 9 step framework for sustainable business growth that I now get to pass onto you!   This week, I'm joined by the resident tapping coach inside The CEO Shift, Jackie McDonald as we dive into her results of going through this 9-step framework with me.   I loved all of this conversation, but the pieces I loved the most were:  How confident Jackie feels with her money How the worry she’s felt around money has started to disippitate How she went to Mexico guilt free because she knew she could afford it and where her next revenue was coming from How she feels much more self-sufficient as a business woman to not only step into her next level, but to be a stable financial provider for her daughter as a single mom How she launched her tapping certification, something she’s been wanting to do for years, and did it within a week to a sold out launch How she just announced her first live event for 2020 that she’s also been dreaming of for years And how for the first time, she’s starting to think so much bigger of what’s truly possible for her to create because her business has the structure & systems to support her, which is freeing up her creative energy, y’all.

Hello, friends! Oh my goodness - do you ever have those moments where you see your previous life journey with your current life journey and you're just amazed at how you've connected the dots?  This was life this week as I had a "Love Lesson" pop up in my FB feed from 3 years ago when I was deep in writing mode for my unpublished book, Learning to Love. I got about 30,000 words into it before I realized this wasn't a book I was writing for anyone else. I was a book I was writing for me.  But as I was reflecting on these love lessons that I have been popping up in my FB memories, I realized that every single piece of sustainability I've built into my business - all my money mastery, all of my leadership, every single strategy, structure, and system I've built - it's all been grounded in love.  So, this week, I wanted to dive into how we can leverage love for business success, the biggest roadblocks I see along the way between entrepreneurs and their businesses, and how we can bring more intention to how we're loving our businesses and more importantly, how we can structure our businesses to more deeply love you back.   LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:  Brené Brown's Talk on Empathy The CEO Shift - my new 5-month program that delivers a powerful 9-step framework to help you make the shift to CEO.   Apply here!

How Eden structures her business to have more freedom in her life Links Mentioned In This Episode:   Join the FREE pop-up group, Money Makin' Mindset   Get in Touch With Eden Fried   Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/edenfried Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/bloggerinsights/ Rebel Boss Ladies Podcast | https://edenfried.com/podcast/ Websites | https://www.EdenFried.com   https://www.RebelBosses.com https://www.RebelBossU.com   About Eden   Eden Fried is the "digital product lady!" After bailing on her plan to attend law school back in 2016 (despite paying her seat deposit, securing an apartment, dropping thousands on textbooks), Eden decided to try her hand at entrepreneurship instead. Since then, Eden mastered the art of making a full time income with digital products (things like ebooks, courses, workshops, etc.) Eden is a rebel - she believes that you shouldn't need to work for someone else in order to pay the bills - so she's dedicated her life to inspiring and teaching other rebel women how to turn their passion into a digital product they can sell and make an income from online. She's the host of the Rebel Boss Ladies podcast and the founder of Rebel Boss University, a membership community where she teaches rebels how to create and launch a digital product within 90 days. When Eden's not at work, she can be found at the gym throwing around some moderately heavy weights (emphasis on the word moderately) or rewatching an episode of Friends or How I Met your Mother for the millionth time.

Every woman goes into pregnancy hoping that everything will be uneventful and perfect, right? Very few women expect to have health problems, or for their baby to have health problems, or to have other unexpected issues. Not to cause any alarm, but that isn’t always the case. That’s why each and every pregnant woman can benefit from learning what a Maternal Fetal Medicine physician is, and what they can do to help you should you need them. So I’m super so excited to have as my guest on this episode, Dr. Keisha Reddick. Keisha is a Maternal Fetal Medicine doctor, and her love of caring for pregnant women and their unborn babies shines right through on this episode. Listen in to learn what you can expect should you ever have to see a Maternal Fetal Medicine physician during your pregnancy or future pregnancies. It’s always better to be prepared and knowledgeable, just in case. ------------------------- LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: www.ncrcoaching.com/enroll (use code CELEBRATE by 2/8/19 to get 20% off) www.ncrcoaching.com/disclaimer  Dr. Keisha Reddick https://medicine.mercer.edu/research/savannah/directory/keisha-reddick-md.cfm https://memorialhealthdoctors.com/physicians/profile/Dr-Keisha-L-Reddick-MD

Hi Friends, With MLK day just around the corner, Erika and I thought it would be fitting to chat about service project ideas that you can do to make an impact.  Whether you want to support on the local level or global level, your gifts can be used to help others! Maybe you don't have a cause that you are passionate about, and that's ok. This episode is designed to help narrow down the countless options out there. Click below to listen to our conversation: If you know someone who would enjoy this episode, will you please share it with a friend?! If you are not sure where to start, we suggest asking yourself the following questions: 1.) Who would you like to help? Is there a specific group of people or cause you are passionate about? Look for projects that relate to your passion and interests. You may also just want to perform particular community service activities that allow you to do hobbies you enjoy, like cooking or sports, and that's fine too. Tip: Start by thinking about categories like children or the environment, if you don’t have a specific organization in mind, searching by category is a good starting place for choosing specific organizations to contact. 2.) Do you want a community service activity that is reoccurring or a one-time event? Perhaps you don't have enough time to regularly devote to community service. In that case, it may be better to look for opportunities that only occur once or sporadically, such as planning special events or helping build a house. Tip: Figure out how much time you can devote to community service. Are you available for two hours every week? Are you not free on a regular basis but can volunteer for an entire weekend now and then? Think about transportation as well and how you'll be able to get to different locations. Knowing this information will help you choose which community service projects to pursue, and its helpful information for volunteer coordinators to know. 3.) What kind of impact do you want to have? Some people prefer to participate in community service activities that have a quantifiable impact, for example, activities where you know the specific number of kids you tutored, dollars you raised, or cans of food you collected. Some people prefer quantifiable activities because they simply enjoy knowing their exact impact on the community. Tip: Do some research to see what projects you can do in your community:Check at your school, place of worship, or town hall for more information on volunteering. You can also contact the place where you’d like to perform your community service, such as a particular animal shelter or nursing home, and ask if they take volunteers. 4.) What skills would you like to gain? Many community service activities can help you gain skills. These skills can range from teaching to medicine to construction and more. If there is a particular skill you'd like to learn for future classes, jobs, or just out of personal interest, you may want to see if there is a community service activity that helps you learn that skill. Tip: Try it! Service projects range from small projects that you can complete on your own in a few hours, to much larger projects that will take more time and people. If you find a project you can start on your own, do it! If you want to do a project where you’ll need more resources or people, check around your community to see if a similar program already exists that you can join. If not, don’t be afraid to start your own! Many organizations welcome new volunteers and community service projects.

Yes, YouTube has had a lot of issues with demonetizing videos for not being "appropriate for all advertisers," but that doesn't mean we should throw our hands up and quit.

Today let's dig into what that mindset is, which one you have, and how you should make money on YouTube even when they demonetize your videos.

Dr. Rachel teaches a 4-step process called “Body Wise” to ignite the connection between our mind and our body. Chronic body depletion is an epidemic among women who ignore their own health by prioritizing the needs of everyone else. The symptoms associated with this depletion, as uncomfortable as they may be, are actually a sign of our body’s intelligence. Body Wise is a system that will empower you to take charge of your own health.  Last week’s episode was an inspirational interview with Aglaee Jacob, a registered dietitian who shares her personal and intimate journey of how she overcame emotional and binge eating. I highly suggest that you check it out! In the next episode, I will be with another inspiring lady! Leanne Vogel will talk about taking charge of her relationship with food and her diet. Stay tuned!

On this episode of the Amazing Seller podcast you’re going to learn all about the power and importance of reviews on your Amazon products. Danny Brewer and Scott Voelker have a lot of experience soliciting and promoting reviews and both of them have tons to share about reviews and review groups and how they can help and hurt you when you’re trying to get your products out to the world.   What do reviews accomplish for your products?   Reviews are one of the most important parts of getting your product moved to the top of the page when someone searches for keywords related to your product. But there’s not a direct correlation. Reviews encourage potential customers to buy your product. Why? Because it appears to be more legitimate, more trustworthy. It’s THOSE sales that push your product higher in the organic search results. On this episode you’re going to hear two experienced Amazon sellers chat about the right and wrong ways to go about getting reviews for your Amazon products.   What’s the biggest reason reviews are deleted by the Amazon powers?   Amazon’s policies require reviews to be posted within certain guidelines. If your reviewers are not following those guidelines, the reviews they leave will eventually be deleted, which is of no benefit to you. The main reason for deletions is that people who receive a product for free (through one of your promotions) in exchange for a review do not say so in their review. Amazon requires that. On this episode you’re going to hear how you can encourage and even help you reviewers leave their response to your product without it being deleted.   Be careful of the trolls that lurk in public review groups.   When you post a free code for your product in an effort to promote it, you may get a great response. But consider what could happen (and often does). The people who see your free promo are not only potential customers, they could be potential competitors - and some of those competitors will do anything to hurt your sales, even buying your product using your promo, and leaving a bad review. It’s something that happens and that you should be very leary of. Today’s episode features some ideas you can put into place to make it where you don’t have to use public groups.   How can you find good, quality places to ask for good reviews?   Danny Brewer learned early on that promoting Amazon products with free or discounted coupons is problematic at best. Not only can trolls buy your product and give you bad reviews, people who are not serious about reviewing products can get in there, give you bad or lackluster reviews, and hurt your product in the end. Danny’s got a group that he’s been able to develop that is a powerful way to get quality reviews, and you can submit your products for consideration. The group doesn’t accept every product, so know that going in. Listen to this episode to get the details.   OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE OF THE AMAZING SELLER   [0:25] Scott’s introduction to the podcast and his guest, Danny Brewer.
