President Obama proclaimed the 19th of November 2010 National Entrepreneur's Day. It's been celebrated ever since on the third Tuesday in November. This month-long celebration highlights the vital role entrepreneurs play in the economy. It highlights the creative minds and risk-takers who drive economic growth through their innovative businesses transforming ideas into reality, boosting local economies, creating job opportunities, fostering community development and national prosperity. The proclamation aims to encourage new business ventures and support existing small businesses (those 33 million companies with fewer than 500 employees, which translates to 99.9% of all US businesses are small businesses), fostering a culture of creativity and self-reliance and underscores the idea that anyone, regardless of background, can pursue entrepreneurial dreams and contribute to economic and social development.

This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Anna Parker-Naples. Anna is he host of the #1 international podcast, Entrepreneurs Get Visible. She is the #1 best-selling author of Get Visible: How to Have More Impact, Influence and Income, and Podcast with Impact: How to Launch Your Podcast Properly. She has been recognized as the National Businesswoman of the Year and finalist for SME’s National Entrepreneur of the Year. And if that is not enough, her audio skills have caught the attention of Hollywood and she’s been honored there. But Anna’s story has some major twists and turns and what I love most about her is how she learned to blend strategy and mindset together to overcome massive challenges and achieve greatness. Of course, she’s not too bad at teaching entrepreneurs how to seriously grow their visibility and I can’t wait to get into all of this with her. www.EntrepreneursGetVisible.com Anna came into the entrepreneurial space a few years ago. 4 years ago, she was working as a voice actor receiving awards on the red carpet in Hollywood for her work. 6 years before that, she was told after a complication with a pregnancy that she would never walk again. To be fully recovered and at the top of her game on the red-carpet years later made her realize that others can do what she did and that there was a process to that success, so she started her business, podcast, and speaking. How did you from being not being able to walk to walking on the red carpet? What was the transformation? Anna was as broken as you could imagine. Before having children, she was a stage actor. She could hardly get out of bed or function with the amount of pain she was in. She had a moment on a New Year’s Eve where she realized that she could no longer stay in her frame of mind. She went to a therapist. They talked and the therapist questioned her views of the world using NLP. This got her to think 2 things. What is she was in a wheelchair the rest of her life, but was highly successful and her work could still be seen all over the world? And What if the doctors are not right about your body and could heal itself? Thinking about those things sparked a new view on her potential and started her on her path. At the 9 min mark, Anna tells a story about she was carried into a job interview and how it was presented to her to have a home studio to do her work. At the 10 min mark, Anna and I discuss the power of the mind what working on your thoughts can do for you. It is a constant work in progress. Many of the things we tell ourselves are not true and are just limiting beliefs. What happens if you decide to think something different about yourself? You’d be surprised. Everything is choice in our lives. It is not rocket science, but it starts with how you think. At the 14 min mark, we talk about how everything begins with an idea, a thought in our lives. How have you learned how to blend your mindset with strategy to exponentially grow results? Anna uses the term “envisioning.” You envision everything. Where you want to be. Who you are clients are. How much you are making. Who you surround yourself with, etc. Podcasting is a great medium to get in front of the clients you want and also, as a podcaster to bring guests on your show that you want to network with and have in your world. Be strategic and deliberate about it. Is there a process for envisioning? Yes, it is called the 10 Pillars of Purpose and Profit. Listen at the 18 min mark as Anna goes through the 10 pillars. Good book called the Micro Pitch Script by Bill Slay to help you hone your message and how you connect how you impact and help others. “Make sure you are not positioning yourself at the bottom for the heap. Strive for the top. There is much less competition there.” Confidence is key to get visible, explain that… Everything is a choice. People choose not to put themselves or their content out there because they are not confident in themselves. But you have every right to put yourself out there and share your talents. Confidence comes from changing how you think and recognizing that is it ok and safe to fail. Be willing to be yourself in front of others knowing you cannot and will not ever be a fit for everyone, but you will for enough. Talk to us about gaining visibility and things people should be doing to stand out… Podcasting is the fastest growing medium with the highest conversion rates, so you need to have a strategy. On social media, are you communicating a consistent message and story across your different channels? Use story to share more about you and let people in. Connect! Best practices to start, run, and grow a successful podcast? It starts with solid planning. Get clear on your message, your target audience, your funnel, any products, etc. Treat the launch like it matters. It is a unique window of opportunity where the algorithms are on your side. Have good production quality. Have good audio. Invest in this. What are some of the things you’ve learned about entrepreneurship and success on your journey? Everything is cumulative. Fail fast and continue as things build on each other. Realize the ripple effect of the impact you can have in the world. Think about the effect your message can have if you amplify it. ​ How important is playing the long game? No one is an overnight success and if they are, they most likely won’t stay there for long. You must take continuous action. Consistency and a long-term view are more important than ever. When it is worth it and about something more, you will have no problem making money. Money is nice, but it cannot be the sole reason for a business and just focusing on that will not sustain you – you’ll be unfulfilled and burned out.   Best Quote:  Make sure you are not positioning yourself at the bottom of the heap. Strive for the top. There is much less competition there.   Anna's Misfit 3: Anything is possible. You just cannot necessarily see if for yourself yet. When you allow yourself to see your potential without excuses or blocks in the way, you can achieve it. It is ok to fail and go wrong, because that is when you can look inside, learn from it, observe what works and what doesn’t and then turn it around.

Did you know it’s National Entrepreneur’s Day today? And it’s also the one year anniversary of the Gossipnista podcast, Nov. 17th. What a ride it’s been for me, but even more so for my two #Girlboss guests on today’s podcast episode! I had the pleasure of speaking with entrepreneurs plus beauty and skincare enthusiast, Rachel Liverman and Neha Govindraj, the founders of glowbar, a facial spa studio in New York City that’s changing the way you care for oneself and your skin. Rachel and Neha talk about their work background and how it played into the development of their business, as well as what lead them to finding one another as business partners and how they decided to commit to one another - as all entrepreneurs know, choosing a business partner is almost like marriage! They share some great yet hilariously unconventional tips on how to choose your business partner. Plus, of course, they talk about their New York story, finding themselves in the city, how the idea for their business came about, how the pandemic has changed things, and so much more! This was an interview that had me so intrigued while also laughing way too much!

The National Entrepreneur Center was founded in 2003, through the collaborative efforts of Walt Disney World, Orange County Government and The University of Central Florida, this “shared facility” and collaborative approach to small business development has attracted national attention for its financial efficiencies and the ability to leverage the resources and skills of each resident organization.

He had his life planned out. After gridiron success as a college athlete, his sights were set on the high prize of playing professional football. He was gifted with quickness, agility, and a work ethic that wouldn't quit. When doctors delivered the news that his eyesight was failing and he would later become blind, hopes of a pro career quickly faded. Everything he had worked toward and had achieved vanished. Bestselling author of The Ultimate Gift, and 26 other book (four of which have been made into movies), Emmy award-winning, Entrepreneur of the Year, Jim Stovall shares an incredible story of how he went from dark isolation to tremendous opportunity - for a period, he had resigned himself to living a hidden life, tucked into a small room in the back of his house. His ground-breaking A-HA! moment came when he welled up his courage and conviction and walked, as a man without sight, down his sidewalk to his mailbox. (You have to hear him give his version.) Follow Jim on Twitter, Facebook, and visit his site. In spite of what others' said he couldn't do, Jim has gone on to become:  An International Humanitarian of the Year; A National Olympic weightlifting champion; An Emmy Award winner; The Founder and President of the Emmy Award-winning Narrative Television Network; One of the Ten Outstanding Young Americans awarded by the U.S. Jaycees; A National Entrepreneur of the Year; A recipient of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce National Blue Chip Enterprise Award. Some of Jim's other titles: The Millionaire Map, Just Believe, and The Ultimate Financial Plan.
