It's also about constantly diving back into the learning journey, and that means becoming a beginner over and over again.” – Liz Bohannon“How we see the world and how we see either challenges or opportunities really are influenced by who we're surrounding ourselves with.” – Liz Bohannon “The problem should always be more precious and more of a focus than the solution. And that is something that beginners do brilliantly.” – Liz Bohannon “I think business is actually one of the most powerful tools for making a positive impact in the world.

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls' Night! I'm so excited about today's episode. Today we're talking about how to take the first step (and then next 10!) when pursuing your dreams. We all are dreaming about something — maybe it's something we want to happen in our lives, maybe it's something we want to happen in the world because of our lives. And if you have a dream, you also have a few things that go along with it — fear, insecurity, uncertainty, and discouragement. (Among other things.) Sometimes, figuring out what we even want to do in the first place is the issue. Other times we know what we want to do, but getting started (and then keeping going!) is a whole other story.  No matter where you are with your dreams for your life, I cannot WAIT for you to meet our Girls Night guest for today.  Our guest for today's episode is Liz Bohannon. Liz is a social entrepreneur and the founder of Sseko Designs, a socially responsible fashion company. She is also a Forbes Top 20 speaker, the author of the best-selling book Beginner's Pluck, the host of the Plucking Up Podcast, and a partner at Noonday Collection. I've followed Liz for years and her book, Beginner's Pluck, totally changed my life. I cannot wait for you to hear from her! Let's hop into our conversation!  Learn more about your ad choices.

A lot can happen in a decade, which is how long it's been since I first met my friend Liz Bohannon!   Liz is a social entrepreneur (best known for co-founding and leading Sseko Designs), a bestselling author, speaker, podcast host, AND a past client of P&P.   Watching Liz's platform grow from near and far over the past decade has been wildly incredible, especially getting to play a small part in it.   Although it seems Liz has done it all, she did start somewhere.   She wrote a fantastic book called Beginners Pluck to recount her small beginnings and teach us women how to lean into a season of new.   That we bring magic into our own lives and businesses because we are beginners, NOT in spite of it!    And in today's episode, she expands on her book and the art of dreaming small to achieve big, so you can too.   If you've been looking for a sign to start something new, grab those headphones.   Come hangout with Liz and me on this week's episode of the Marketing Your Purpose podcast, and embrace your Inner Beginner.

The pressure to find purpose can be overwhelming, evoking a spectrum of emotions that range from stress and anxiety to downright fear. In today's episode, Kristen welcomes author, entrepreneur, activist, and all-around powerhouse Liz Bohannon. Liz challenges the conventional narrative around dreaming big, emphasizing the need to reframe messages and integrate work that aligns with our purpose. Liz doesn't just talk about finding your purpose; she empowers you to build it.   Kristen and Liz's incredible conversation introduces the concept of "plucking up" – the courage to face failures and learn from them as you construct a purposeful life. She encourages us to find what we love and dismisses the notion that passion or purpose will magically find us.    Let's look at a few highlights: Kristen and Liz Liz explore the role of curiosity in unlocking a growth mindset, activating the mind, and fostering creativity. Liz challenges the notion that purpose has to be grand, encouraging individuals to find joy in the ordinary and love their average selves. Failure is an inevitable part of being human. While it may never feel good, reframing our perspective can prevent it from being the end of the world. The story behind how Sseko morphed from a wholesale company to a direct sales/network marketing company Liz shares the power of a driven community, highlighting the importance of collective ambition. This conversation isn't just about individual goals but celebrates the need for community.    It's a conversation filled with insights, challenges, and opportunities for personal growth that will undoubtedly fill your cup and inspire you to embrace your purpose and own your average. It's not just about goals; it's about collective ambition, community, and the pursuit of purpose—whether big or small.   Listen to Liz's Podcast Plucking Up To learn more (and shop!) about Sseko Designs head over to their website   Did you hear?

In this episode of The Accidental Creative, we revisit our 2019 conversation with Liz Bohannon. Liz shares her journey of moving to Uganda without a plan or job after college, and how that led her to start a socially conscious fashion brand. We dive into her book, "Beginner's Pluck," which challenges the narrative of being special and encourages action on small dreams. Liz's practical and authentic approach to entrepreneurship and leadership shines through as she shares her experiences and lessons learned. Join us as we explore the power of pluck and embracing our inner beginner.Key Learnings from this Episode:1. Embrace the power of small dreams: Taking action on small dreams creates momentum and propels us out of waiting and indecision.2. Let go of the need to be special: Redirecting our energy from trying to be unique to creating and doing can lead to greater productivity and innovation.3. Treat small dreams as sacred: Acting on small dreams, even if they lead to failure, builds momentum and opens pathways to bigger dreams.4. Own your average: Find fulfillment in positively impacting a few people's lives, rather than striving to be loved by everyone.5. Embrace the qualities of a beginner: Beginners naturally excel in certain areas, and experts can channel their inner beginner for more effective leadership.Get three quick ideas to start your week off right.

By age 24, Liz Bohannon had founded her company, Sseko Designs, in Uganda. Since then, she has continued to grow as a leader and expand her wisdom and influence. Recently Sseko has merged with their largest competitor, Noonday Collection, and Global Leadership podcast host Jason Jaggard sat down with Liz to discuss some of the important learnings from the merger, as well as some important leadership tools that have shaped both Sseko and her personal life as well. A past GLS faculty member, Liz will be a part of the 2023 Global Leadership Summit, and we are excited to share her wisdom with you here! 

During the Covid pandemic, 150 million people were pushed back into global poverty and 20 million girls left the classroom, many to never return again. For companies like Noonday Collection and Sseko Designs, continuing to provide economic opportunities for the communities they have been supporting for over a decade became even more critical - and the best way to do it was by doing it together.In this week's episode, Jenni talks with Jessica Honegger, founder of Noonday Collection, and Liz Bohannon, founder of Sseko Designs. Jessica and Liz recently went through a merger & acquisition process and are now serving as co-owners of Noonday Collection. Noonday Collection works with over 30 artisan businesses and over 2500 artisan partners around the world, and has funded a million dollars of adoptions for families in the US.Jess and Liz share the mission and values that drive them, their passion for collaboration over competition, how going forward together was better for both of them, and what it means to now have a stunt-double business partner.They also answer questions about how they merged cultures, how coaching helped them work through the change, and why keeping short accounts and giving generous assumptions are critical to their day-to-day success. Jess and Liz model what healthy, God-honoring leadership looks like and what it looks like to collaborate, not compete, as they lean into the best of each other.Connect with NoondayUse your purchasing power for good by shopping ethically at www.noondaycollection.com (check out their new coffee!) and learn more on Instagram and FacebookYour Next StepFor a next step, check out our 4Sight Women in Leadership Coaching Intensive.

Voicing out sadness, tenderness and disappointment feels so scary for a ‘biggie'. When they are vulnerable with you on these feelings, listen to them and honor them.   A ‘biggie' is a name coined by Liz Bohannon to represent high capacity, vocal and disruptive people who are ready to boldly change the status quo.   In today's episode, Jenny and Liz, who are both biggies, share some pro tips on how best to love on these types of friends in a connected and authentic way.

“I want people to hear and know that you don't have to be afraid of ruptures (in a relationship). When you rupture and you're committed to repairing, what is built on the other side of that is actually more powerful, more intimate, and more committed.”We are continuing our Collaboration Over Competition series, and my guests today are no strangers to The Happy Hour. Jessica Honegger and Liz Forkin Bohannon recently merged their two awesome companies together! Jessica is the founder of Noonday Collection and Liz is the founder of Sseko Designs. On this episode, we talk about what that process and decision was like for them, being that their companies were each other's competition in the ethical fashion space. We cover a lot in our conversation. Like how Liz moved to Uganda with a passion and desire to build a community and gain a deeper understanding about issues impacting women and girls living in extreme poverty. And how Jessica believes that relationships are a part of who we are all created to be.  Jessica talked about how she wanted Liz to come on her podcast and how it was not an easy decision to invite Liz into her space where she would talk about her company. We talk about jealousy, not valuing each other's decisions, and the power of merging their companies for collaboration, not competition. Together Liz and Jessica really care about global poverty and cleaning up the fashion supply chain, and I'm excited for you to hear from them today! Connect with JamieFacebook //  Instagram // YouTubeGET ALL THE LINKS FROM THE SHOW HERE

Jordan Raynor sits down with Jessica Honegger and Liz Bohannon, Founders of Noonday Collection and Sseko Designs, to talk about how to know if you are working for your identity or from it, the costly measures these women are taking to honor all image-bearers in the global fashion supply chain, and how recognizing that you “house the glory of God” can free you to make decisions.Links Mentioned:Noonday CollectionSseko DesignsJessica HoneggerJessica Honegger on TwitterJessica Honegger on LinkedInJessica Honegger on InstagramLiz BohannonLiz Bohannon on LinkedInLiz Bohannon on InstagramEpisode 118 with Jessica HoneggerPraxisBrené BrownEvery Moment HolyThe Soul of ShameThe Life We're Looking ForMy Tech-Wise LifePrayers in the Night

Do you view other moms as collaborators or competitors? Whether it's our achievements or our difficulties we often compare ourselves to other moms rather than come alongside them (or even celebrate them - gasp!).   My guests this week say it this way -  “[we] are committed to choosing collaboration over competition and running far from that scarcity mentality that there's just not enough at the table. Instead, we're just building a bigger table.”  Jessica is the founder of Noonday Collections and her business partner Liz Bohannon founded Sseko and they are joining forces to become the world's largest fair-trade fashion selling brand. They encourage us that joining together as moms doesn't deplete our resources but actually multiplies them.  Connect with Liz & Jessica:  Website:  https://www.noondaycollection.com  https://ssekodesigns.com  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/noondaycollection https://www.facebook.com/ssekodesigns  Instagram:  @jessicahonegger   @lizbohannon  @noondaycollection @ssekodesigns Twitter: @noondaystyle  Links Mentioned:   Become an Ambassador!

In this inspiring, long-form conversation, Sseko Designs founder and social entrepreneur Liz Forkin Bohannon tells the story of how her fair-trade, by-women-for-women lifestyle brand literally began on the back of a motorcycle in Uganda. She also discusses her book Beginner’s Pluck: Build Your Life of Purpose and Impact Now, why she believes leaders need to “channel their inner beginner,” and how gender inequality is just as damaging to men as it is to women. And she dives into the philosophies that have built Sseko into what it is today: That every human deserves to be treated with respect and dignity, and that how we spend our money matters. “As consumers, every dollar we spend is a vote for how we're saying, this is how we want the world to work,” she says. A former journalist, Liz is passionate about conscious consumerism, social justice, creative leadership, gender equity, risk-taking, and empowering women. She believes deeply that business is a powerful platform for social change and that girls are our future.

The gold standard of goals training is SMART goals. Everyone teaches it. Many people try to do it. But what if your smart goals make you feel dumb? What if there is a better way to have goals that are meaningful and bring you peace instead of stress? In Episode 40 of Just One Simple Thing, I'm sharing a new goal-setting acronym and I think you are going to love it.I'm sure you've heard about SMART goals. Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-Bound ... or some slight variation. For sensitive, creative types, I've found that SMART goals can make you feel dumb. Because SMART goals are results-focused ... all-or-nothing.  And If you don't hit the target, you label yourself a failure for not being SMART enough. What if we took a different approach to goals? What if we focused more on theprocess than the results? If we valued making progress towards the goal as much as crossing the finish line? What if we set PEACE goals? I'm going to teach you a new goals acronym so you can replace SMART with PEACE. Ready?P is for Purposeful - Your goals should align with your deepest purpose. They should resonate with the core of your being.E is for Essential - Prioritize your goals so that you are moving forward in the most important ways in the most important areas. Conquer the essential tasks and behaviors that may impact your life in multiple areas.A is for Adjustable - Rather than setting a single goal, think of “Good, Better, Best” versions of your goal. Good –the minimum that would be “good enough” for youBetter –the target that would satisfy you and feel like an accomplishmentBest –a stretch level that would be better than you could imagine.C is for Current –We should all have an eye on our long-range goals. They help us prepare for our future. But we also need goals that impact our present. We can break down our long range goals into the smaller steps we'll take now to get there.And the second E is for Enjoyable–How do you feel when you think about your goals? Are you motivated and encouraged? Or dreading the worthy work it will take to get there.Pursuing PEACE goals will keep your actions in line with your principles and use your limited time and resources to make progress where you can. You'll be actively engaged in the most important areas of your life and advancing the causes you care about. Now that's what I call SMART.ACTION STEPHead over to my free Facebook group, Plan & Pray with Do A New Thing, and grab the worksheet to evaluate your PEACE goals. Snap a picture and share it on social media. I'd love to hear how these PEACE goals are different than the SMART goals you've set in the past.RESOURCES: Christian Woman Leadership Podcast Episode 28 Three Practical Approaches to Goal Setting Christian Woman Leadership Podcast Episode 181 Setting Goals and Making Plans that Bring Peace Instead of StressBook Recommendation: Beginner's Pluck: Build Your Life of Purpose and Impact Now by Liz Bohannon.++++++++++Are you tired from trying to share your God-inspired message while working your full time job?

One of the most common questions that I get from people in the moments after I speak is how they can share their testimony. For me sharing my story takes a lot of forms: from the stage, small groups or one-on-one in everyday life. Regardless the circumstance, I think these three aspects are crucial for honoring God in your story. We take a quick look at what three aspects need to be woven in any testimony.   What We Are Lovin' D - For God So Loved The World by Dayton Hartman and Walt Strickland   H - Beginner's Pluck by Liz Bohannon   Let's hang out online!     Instagram - @danielpritchie @heathersletters   Facebook - @danielpritchie     Twitter - @danielritchie     Website/Speaking/Blog - www.danielritchie.org     Thank you for listening!

I was thrilled to get to interview Liz Bohannon, founder and CEO of Sseko Designs, for this week's episode of Raise Your Hand Say Yes. We talked about how she went from "an idea" of what her calling was to building the company she has now. We also talked about how she felt quitting her "looks good on paper" job to move to Uganda without a plan, what happened when she realized that she was building a business around things she *thought* she hated, and how many times she's been told no.
