This year we're running a special series with our clients around having them tell their story. We're doing case stories of what it looks like to actually tangibly realistically succeed in a year or in a period of time because not everybody who has come on has been with us for a full year. We're really looking to show the honest and transparent results that people get no matter how big or how small they are and really unpack what was going on in their business when they decided to ask for help because we understand that asking for help is often the biggest barrier, and then what transpired after they were supported through The Bold Profit Academy. We are kicking off with Marie Parks of North Star Messaging. Marie sat down to share about her year, including how she and her business partner shifted from three figure offers to a six figure offer, and how the support inside The Bold Profit Academy helped.

Have you ever looked at your business and wondered how it got so complicated? Whether it was your offers, your messaging or your systems… it seemed to all be running fine until you took a pause to see the tangled web that's actually been weaved over time? That's what we're talking about on this episode with our guests Veronica Yanhs, Jessi Honard and Marie Parks as they talk about the time they realized they overcomplicated their business, what they did to make a change and how it changed the way they now show up and make decisions. Including: Learning how to cut through the noise of what business “should” look like and what is right for you (along with an inside look at what happened before this lesson was learned). How simplification allowed an offer to hit $100k, without the need for burn out or complicated launch strategies. What really happens when you try to turn your agency into a one-stop-shop (hint: it's not worth it!) Why simplification is ever evolving in a business and how to know it's time for you to look at how you can do less, better. What it looks like to lean into the work you're the most qualified and experienced in and how it has built both stronger results for clients and referral relationships with other businesses. About Veronica From the spreadsheets to the bedsheets Veronica Yanhs is completely open about who she is: CEO, kinky, and feminist. Using her Orgasmic Operations® method she helps 6 + 7-figure businesses create well-lubricated operations to make their next level of growth insanely pleasurable, sustainable, and full of ease.

Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing Jessi Honard and Marie Parks. We'll be talking about their contemporary fantasy debut, Unrelenting.  Jessi and Marie have been co-writing speculative fiction since 2009, and their 2022 contemporary fantasy debut, Unrelenting, was a finalist in the 2020 Book Pipeline Unpublished Manuscript contest.  Marie is a fantasy, sci-fi, and horror author who landed in New Mexico after traveling full-time in an RV for years. Her writing uses speculative fiction to dive into topics like social justice, the environment, and the power of friendship. Jessi Honard is a speculative fiction author, business owner, and professional coffee inhaler. Her work leans into the power of imaginary worlds as a conduit to exploring common struggles of identity, belonging, and trust.  Together, they've run a successful copywriting agency since 2010. Jessi lives in the Bay Area of California with her partner, Taormina, and Marie lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico with all the dogs.   In this episode Jessi, Marie, and I discuss: What qualities make for a successful co-writing partnership and how to decide whom to work with. How to bounce back from early mistakes and why you aren't always one mistake away from ruin. The importance of interrogating the “why” behind your vision for your book and your career. Plus, their #1 tip for writers.  For more info and show notes: diymfa.com/408

“It's easy to always come up with excuses or roadblocks but everything literally is possible and so whatever you're thinking about trying, you should just do it.” Kizzy Parks   As people act their way into the life that they desire, often they find that they get more clarity of what their passions and strengths are. This is no different from what our guest today, Kizzy Parks, experienced in the course of her studies. According to Parks, you gain more clarity of purpose once you stop thinking and start acting. As a kid, Kizzy would clean golf balls located in an alley behind her friend's house and resell them through a fence to golfers. She used the money to buy FUNYUNS® and Nutty Bars. Kizzy always knew that she would become an entrepreneur and earn an advanced degree in psychology. Her entrepreneurial spirit meshed well with her inquisitive nature as an adopted child who always wanted to, and then met, her birth family. Driven to be the successful business owner she always knew she would be, she went on to earn a Ph.D. and establish KPC over a decade ago. Today, Kizzy owns and operates multiple businesses and have over $50 million in government contract awards. Through GovCon Winners, she helps service-based small business owners learn HOW to win profitable federal government contracts through the powerful CTC technique to grow their bottom line. In today's episode, Kizzy will talk about how her journey towards earning PhD led her to becoming the entrepreneur that she is today. Listen in! Social Media Handles- https://www.linkedin.com/in/kizzy/ https://www.instagram.com/kizzymparks/?hl=en When I was younger, I knew I was going to get a PhD and I knew I was going to be an entrepreneur, it was just something that I felt. [3:02] When I was in graduate school, to earn extra money, I would provide different services by consulting for companies. [3:21] I thought to myself that once I earned my PhD, I would go on to work for a company, and then start a business later on in life or maybe teach for a university and consult on the side. [3:47] There was a graduate research fellowship available at now Patrick Space Force which I took it up. [4:24] At the end of my dissertation journey, the director of research said that he would like for me to stay on as a contractor. [5:07] That is what started Kay parks consulting, my first of three government contracting companies and it all just started out from that graduate research fellowship, and my desire to be an entrepreneur. [5:55] We provide a variety of services primarily to the federal government. [6:06] My desire wasn't just any 40-hour position but was something I really was passionate about. [6:23] I had no idea about government contracting or how to run a business and so I found people to help me and they broke it down which was really helpful. [8:19] I've always been super creative and inquisitive and that's what led me to doing different things. [10:38] Commercial break. [11:39] On the government side we help our clients just with that shot to get to their potential through making their life easier. [12:42] What is important is by someone saying that they need help and need someone who's dependable, and who is going to really understand us. [13:04] It helps them because then they're able to focus on their jobs or their positions in the military. [13:50] When I first got started I had no idea and I spent so much time just even trying to figure out how to understand an RFP. [15:47] Everything is possible and It's easy to always come up with excuses or roadblocks but everything literally is possible and so whatever you're thinking about trying, you should just do it.
