In this episode of the Australian Property Show we're joined by former Australian Olympic Swimming coach Bill Nelson. If you haven't heard Bill speak before, strap yourself in, because this episode is a crash course on greatness. I'm lucky to have been working with Bill over the past 6 months, and during this time his insights, influence, and positive outlook on life continue to blow me away. He's been called ‘the success guru at the heart of Penrith's rise to the top of the NRL. A little while ago it was Olympic champion Kieren Perkins who said: “Bill has the expertise, insight, and understanding into what makes a champion” It's said that Bill's unique approach enables him to help people get the absolute best out of themselves and those around them. Their results bear testament to this. Bill personally coached Daniel Kowalski, Mathew Dunn, Scott Miller, Michael Klim, Nicole Stevenson, Linley Frame, and Duncan Armstrong during a distinguished career. But it's the results he is able to help regular people like you and me achieve that makes him much much more than just a coach to the sporting elite… Throughout the episode, we cover: Lessons from 10-years of coaching Australian Olympians Bill's super simple method for living a happier life The number 1 thing we can give our children to help them lead a fulfilling life The 3-most important ingredients for realising your potential; and Why we must re-define failure if we're ever to succeed Thanks for tuning in and please enjoy this episode of The Australian Property Show featuring Bill Nelson.

Marketing doesn't have to be an obnoxious task you dread. Many small business owners are uncomfortable talking about themselves and their work with the public. Create an Instagram Reel? With me on camera? No, thank you.According to Nicole Stevenson, CEO and Creative Director of Dear Handmade Life, it's not about you. It's about your message.“I can't serve my community if nobody knows about me,” she says.Dear Handmade Life curates events, education, and community for creatives and small business owners. During her time as CEO, Nicole has done many things that made her uncomfortable. Marketing is one of those things. In her work with other small business owners, she finds this attitude toward marketing is pretty common. Sharing your story is essential to building a community. And for Nicole, that community is everything.“I would not have a business without this community that we've curated,” she says.On this episode of Be a Marketer, Nicole and host Dave Charest, Director of Small Business Success at Constant Contact, discuss being more open to new systems and technologies, creating processes to complete your big tasks, and why it's important to sit back and appreciate yourself once in a while.

More about Nicole Stevenson: Nicole Stevenson is a multi-passionate creative, middle-aged first-time mama, impostor syndrome warrior, cake and Korean BBQ connoisseur, confessional journaler, second-hand shop scavenger, deep dive conversationalist and the CEO and creative director at Dear Handmade Life. She can't recall a time in her life when she wasn't making something. At 24, she turned my passion into my profession when she started selling Random Nicole, her handcrafted clothing line at flea markets and backyard craft fairs, which she grew into a thriving retail and wholesale six-figure business that was carried at over 250 shops around the world. Nicole's desire to help other creatives pursue their dream business and discover the joy of making led her away from her own handmade business and into teaching, consulting, running her own workshop studio and eventually co-founding Dear Handmade Life in 2007. Now, she connects, educates and shortens the learning curve for other creatives by sharing what she's learned through the Dear Handmade Life events, blog and podcast. She has a BA and an MA in English from San Francisco State University and a dual “PhD” in crafting to keep your sanity and badass business skills from the School of Life. When she takes off her Dear Handmade Life “boss hat”, you'll find her squeezing in time to write or draw, trying her damndest to make her baby laugh or hold still long enough for her to change his diaper, devouring one of the dozens of self-help books on her nightstand, trying to find something interesting to take a photo of on her morning walk in her mundane suburban neighborhood, watching Below Deck and eating the best sausage and orecchiette courtesy of her husband or dreaming of living a stone's throw from the beach.

Studio 78: Branding, Productivity, & Business Tips for Female Creative Entrepreneurs
Nicole Stevenson and her team curate events, education, and community for creatives and passionate small business owners through Dear Handmade Life (DHL). Nicole started with her aunt, who has since moved on, by initially creating a tiny holiday craft show called Patchwork Show. Over the next decade, Patchwork Show evolved into a multi-city biannual festival. In 2011, they launched Craftcation Conference, giving small business owners and creatives support and education through four magical days of craft, business, and wellness workshops at the beach. With the additions of a blog, podcast, online shop, workshops, and a thriving virtual community, the brand became Dear Handmade Life in 2013. In this episode, Nicole chats about why she decided to build a creative community, and she provides tips on how you can too. We get into the business of Craftcation to include her decision to start delegating more after her son was born and the mental impact of having to cancel a fully planned conference due to the pandemic. Lastly, we discuss productivity tips for organizing large events and how Camp DHL will differ from other virtual spaces for creatives. Show notes: https://nachesnow.com/129

In this episode of Le Run Down I got to interview the fastest marathoner on show to date, Nicole Stevenson. She took up running at a very young age, and competed through high school and university. She enjoyed long distance running the most, and won her first coached marathon in Toronto with a time of 2 hours 36 minutes. She went on to improve to a personal best time of 2 hours 32 minutes and earned the Canadian national marathon title. Nicole is now retired from competitive running but she continues to share her passion and knowledge with high performing athletes. Coaching and helping them reach their full potential, the same way she was supported throughout her successful career.

Isaac addresses the idea that there’s one path to success as a handmade business, encourages taking action on your dreams, and interviews Nicole Stevenson from Dear Handmade Life about her own unique journey as a maker, artist, and community organizer.
A lot of creative people thrive on having multiple side projects, but at the same time, having side projects may cause your main projects to suffer. Nicole Stevenson joins Charlie to jam about how having side projects might help you with your main projects. She brings her vast experiences as an entrepreneur - clothing line creator, craft show extraordinaire, illustrator, among many others - to discuss how she got started on the two main ventures she’s working on today, aspects of working with a business partner to make projects work, as well as the various benefits working on side projects can provide to main business projects. Key Takeaways: [2:53] - Nicole shares a bit of her history, recounting some of her business and entrepreneurial ventures and tracing their evolution to get to where she is today. Her creative interests led to observations about different things in the crafting community, and she joined with her aunt to start up Patchwork Show and eventually Craft-cation. [7:47] - Charlie talks about predetermined business plans versus responsive business plans. With Nicole’s sort of adaptive process, how did she and her business partner let go of the old things to focus on the things that matter most right now? As she evaluated which aspects of her work were exciting and profitable, she slowly let other things drop off. [12:17] - Sometimes when things reach a certain level of maturity, or aren’t as new anymore, they might lose some of the magic that had us holding on to them. On the flip side, sometimes when projects are spaced out at cyclical intervals, each time you come back to it can be new and exciting. [14:09] - When we’re in the business of making creative things, there are a lot of open-loop projects. Having some closed-loops projects, maybe more of the admin side of your business, can be refreshing to balance out the other projects. [17:01] - Breaking down your tasks into smaller steps can make tackling some of the big projects more manageable. It can also increase our sense of accomplishment to be completing small steps towards finishing a big task. A good balance between small tasks divided over a certain amount of time is very beneficial in keeping your to-do list manageable. [20:20] - How can managing side projects make us better at our main projects? Having side projects that may get us connected with other people or things can be refreshing towards work with our main projects. [23:31] - Part of being a creative knowledge worker is recognizing that our emotion is one of the ingredients we’re working with. It is important to be mindful of our emotions and how they tie in to what we produce. Side projects can be an avenue to separate some of these emotions so the negative effects don’t drift into the main projects. [25:28] - Charlie talks about the importance of being in a divergent population of creatives, and the benefits of small projects can help the work we do with our main projects be more focused and provide different solutions. [29:05] - How do Nicole and her business partner workout temporal misalignments, or managing different time requirements between side projects and their main business? Evaluating who is better suited to managing and working on different tasks is important for both parties involved. Specifically for Nicole and Delilah, communication is key. [33:59] - In a partnership, it is not likely that each person will be doing the exact same work during a week. It is unlikely that it will be an even 50/50 distribution. Keeping track of these hours can also lead to conversations about the relative value of work. [38:02] - How does Nicole measure success when it comes to all her projects, both side projects and main projects? At the end of the day, she measures success based on whether she is proud of the work she’s doing, and feels like she is giving the best she can give to her community. [42:28] - For creative entrepreneurs in general, it is important to make reading about financial aspects part of your regular flow. [45:59] - Nicole leaves listeners with this invitation: start a side project, whether it’s something for your business, something for yourself, or something for your money. Anything that requires your attention is considered a project - pick a project out that is the most manageable for where you are.

Nicole Stevenson shares her personal testimony of the freedom she experienced at her first WOW conference. God set her free from homosexuality, depression, and pornography, and has lifted her into the powerful woman of God He created her to be! What awesome, encouraging proof of our Father's endless love for His daughters.

Ahh, I love Nicole and Delilah from Craftcation so so much and was thrilled to have them on the show this week! We talked a LOT about partnerships and creative collaborations, but we also talked about how to (creatively) make the best of a shitty situation, what to do when things go wrong, and how to let things go to make room for the new in your life. Nicole and Delilah, you are the best and I can't wait to hug you like crazy in March! PS. Speaking of April, did you know that I'll be speaking at Craftcation 2015 along with some of my other creative friends (and podcast guests!) including: Kari Chapin, Emily McDowell, Elise Blaha Cripe, Mati McDonough...and so many more!
