I've had a few coaching clients of late reach a point of needing help to finally give their side hustles their all in order to help them finally leave a job that isn't serving them anymore. I often get asked about when and how to make the leap from a full time or part time job so as to give their business idea or side hustle a solid crack. It's a tough one to give a blanket answer to but in this episode I share how I felt and what I did when I transitioned from my '9-5' to StartUp Creative and insights into how to make it work for you.    Even if you've already started and you need help deciding if your next big idea/project/product or service is worth taking the risk, this episode will help you figure out the best next steps as well as some mindset hacks to overcome fear and inaction. 

On today's episode I caught up with the bubble personality, photographer and business coaching client of mine Sian Fay. Over the last 6 months or so Sian and I have been working together to redesign her personal brand and help her to scale her business in order to attract more of her ideal customers and dream work.  On completion of our time together Sian shared the many wins and successes she's had in her business since working together and we reflected on the journey she'd been on to make her dreams and goals come to life.  In this episode Sian very generously shares the lessons she learnt, the [practical steps she took, the ways in which she mastered her mindset around money and her worth as a creative and how she was able to transform her business by backing herself.    A lot of people come to StartUp Creative for ‘how to start' advice and we regally share the success stories of many well established entrepreneurs and businesses but in this episode we celebrate those still on the journey and the first steps they took to elevate their business skills to move out of those early stages of startup/freelancer to a sustainable and growing business.  Check out Sian's website & work here https://sianfay.com

In this special rebroadcast episode, I share with you a recent interview I had where I spoke with friend and legend Kaylene (of Startup Creative) about how we can navigate the world of social media during these uncertain times and when you're in a funk. In this episode, we dive into how to navigate around call to action, what to post during uncertain moments, how and where to best engage with your audience, and ways to manage losing followers. Psst.

We've all been there, staring at our phone trying to come up with the perfect caption on social media, or reading and re-reading that one paragraph that just doesn't feel quite right. We all want punchy copy and words with a strong message that resonates with our target audience, which is why I'm so happy to introduce you to the wonderful Ash Chow. She's a launch strategist and conversion copywriter for online entrepreneurs who want to sell their digital products on repeat. I can attest to Ash's incredible word slingin' ability having used her services with StartUp Creative. Today we chat about Ash's journey having pivoted, learnt, and grown within her own business model to creating the right copy that will set a standard of who you are and what you do in a punchy, straight to the point message.

What's your flow state? Are you waking up on Monday morning, crunching hours, and feeling exhausted with the amount of work you think you need to do? Or, are you putting your focus on tasks that feel right for you at that moment? Today I wanted to discuss with you the whole idea of timing and getting into a manageable and comfortable flow state. Sometimes we can be so hard-hitting, fast-moving, and embrace a more masculine side of our energy, other times we embody the more feminine, floaty, and gentle side. In order for us to continue growing our business and ourselves, we must find the perfect mix of these two sides. I wanted to share with you two personal stories of divine timing. Of wanting something so badly but not having it work out for you, to one day having the opportunity present itself in a way you least expected it. I want to encourage you that if you're creating something right now and it's not happening, tune in to yourself and see what flow you need to get into to let it come to fruition. I'm really excited to share with you some information about the StartUp Creative membership offering which I chat a bit about at the end of this episode. Enjoy, K. x

This week I am so honoured to have the very first Queen to grace the Startup Creative soundwaves, the talented and wonderful Timberlina. My conversation with Timberlina was so insightful and hilarious, from chatting about her first experience on stage in NYC doing the splits in the middle of a dance-off, getting wigs delivered to the work office on a construction site to using a little bit of liquid courage to email pubs and clubs in small rural towns to hireher bingo show. We chat about how she was never really a part of the gay scene, but started to connect and learn moreabout the community once she took on the glamorous persona of Timberlina. Her story is a beautiful example of flowing into your natural qualities and truly hustling and not letting ‘no' get in the way of your dreams. She is breaking down barriers in small-town communities and educating people about the drag community by being inclusive, having a good laugh, and a lot of fun. Timberlina shares some really epic business advice on how to start your creative side hustle and how you can kickstart your drag career by staying true to who you are and aligning yourself with people and companies who embody you and your brand

On the podcast this week, Kaylene and I chat about her strict upbringing in a religious household, listening to the soul voice, and climbing the ladder before melting down.

We asked "what do you wish there was a meditation for?" to business coach, author and queen of podcasting Kaylene Langford founder of Startup Creative who responded - feeling like an imposter.Why do we sometimes feel like we're faking our way through our lives?  Having recently published a book - "How to Start a Side Hustle" and  (which will be available as of 7th July and already available for pre-order on Startup Creative website and Amazon!)  and running one of Australia's top business podcasts, a lot of people may be surprised to hear that like the majority of us (mainly women!) imposter syndrome likes to rear it head and rattle her from time to time.  The 'meditation' is at the last 6 minutes of the episode so if you're in need of a quick fix to tack your imposter syndrome - just skip to the end.

“Through mindfulness I learnt that I could be the creator of my existence and that’s how I started StartUp Creative. I stepped out of being a victim and became the creator of my life. And where the creation happens is in the silence and in the witnessing and observing of your life.” – Kaylene Langford. Kaylene Langford began StartUp Creative after a period of depression, anxiety and worry. She realised there were things in her life that weren’t serving her, including her job, certain relationships and the absence of mindfulness. After discovering meditation and rituals she was able to turn her life around and now she is the creator of her existence and a successful entrepreneur. Following a morning routine is one of the most important things Kaylene does in order to be present each day. This week on the podcast she takes you through her morning routine so you can be inspired to create your own. In this podcast you’ll learn how to break morning habits and create new ones; be aware and present; which specific products will help increase mindfulness; and how to engage your five senses to create space in your day. Plus, discover how setting your intention can be as simple as planning a holiday. “You can’t be the creator of your life if you’re constantly running the same patterns over and over.” Are you ready to become the creator of your existence?

“The more that you can get comfortable with loving what you do and the more you can remind yourself that people need your service, then the more likely you are going to get paid what you’re really worth. Get comfortable with getting paid to do what you love.” – Kaylene Langford. Pricing. It’s a complicated topic that many creatives find difficult to tackle. Luckily, Kaylene Langford of StartUp Creative is here to provide you with tangible advice on all things pricing so you can make the money you deserve. If you’re starting a business and you don’t know where to begin, or you're several years into a business and you’re thinking about reviewing your pricing, this advice is priceless. “Money is an important part of this world; it’s an important part of running a business.” Kaylene will take you through her top three tips on pricing, which delve much deeper than just maths and numbers; you’ll walk away with information to help you design the life of your dreams. She’ll also provide a few sneaky book suggestions towards the end of the podcast so you can take your pricing education even further. This is invaluable advice that Kaylene usually provides to her clients, so what are you waiting for?

“My ultimate key to success is fronting up day in day out, even when you feel like giving up. It’s that persistence and that consistency and that relentlessness in the pursuit of your vision, which I think takes a certain amount of grit and a certain person to roll up their sleeves and do what needs to get done.” – Tess Robinson. Every time we do a call out for topic suggestions on the podcast, at least one person requests an interview with Tess Robinson (and it’s no wonder why). Owner of renowned design agency Smack Bang Designs, one half of StartUp Creative, and founder of several other businesses on the go, Tess Robinson knows a thing or two about success. Kaylene Langford sits down with Tess to discuss the story behind Smack Bang Designs and how she turned a freelancing gig with zero clients into a successful business with 15 staff. Tess shares her definition of success (hint: it involves chickens), her three keys to success, and her tips on avoiding burnout. They also chat about social media’s ability to obscure the truth. “All you’re seeing is the highlight reel. It’s like the blurb on the back of the book selling the story. Inside that book are chapters and chapters of tears and hard work and ups and downs.” Grab your pen and paper – you’re going to want to take notes from this business powerhouse.

“It’s so powerful to remind yourself that often success comes right after you think you can’t go any further.” – Kaylene Langford. Whether you’re starting a business, you’re grinding in a nine to five, or you’re simply dealing with the everyday ups and downs of life, there are going to be moments that push you to your limits; moments that make you want to quit. This week, StartUp Creative founder Kaylene Langford takes you through the toughest moments she’s experienced in the lead up to the launch of issue five of StartUp Creative magazine. From breakups to buying houses to pregnancies, Kaylene and her business partner Tess have encountered it all throughout the process. Kaylene shares what she learned along the way, including the five steps that helped her focus on the end goal and ultimately bring the incredible magazine to fruition. Use Kay’s tips to navigate your way through your own battles and overcome any negative moments to reach your goals. Make sure you pick up a copy of StartUp Creative magazine for loads more business tips and life hacks like these: startupcreative.com.au/the-magazine/

“Coaches and mentors have already paved the way, they know how to get there, they know what success feels like and they can keep you moving in the right direction even when you have no clue what the other side of all this hard work is going to look and feel like.” – Kaylene Langford. Are you thinking about sourcing a business coach or mentor? In this week’s podcast, Kaylene Langford discusses why ‘two heads are better than one,’ in the world of entrepreneurship. The StartUp Creative founder and mentor advocate has worked with coaches and mentors since her time as an athlete in high school, so she knows a thing or two about finding, working with and benefiting from them. Find out how and why Kaylene utilises mentors and the roles they play in her business and life; hear tips and tricks on how to find the right mentor for you; and discover some of Kaylene’s favourite mentors (hint: they may be closer to you than you think.)

“95% of our actions are unconscious. In order to shift into where 5% of the population live – and that is as free individuals who are actually living their heart path and being extremely abundant while doing so – what you need to do is look at what is going on in the unconscious to sabotage your life and sabotage your business.” – Chantelle Raven. This week on the Startup Creative podcast we go deep with Chantelle Raven. The academic, turned entrepreneur has a law degree, honours in philosophy, she’s written books, is a teacher and a tantric facilitator. Chantelle and Kaylene discuss how cultural conditioning has stopped us from creating a life of freedom. Chantelle shares her knowledge on creating change in one’s life, addictions, listening to your environment, the relationship between Tantra and business, authenticity, being courageous, and stepping outside of your comfort zone. If you listen to one podcast this week, make it this one. But prepare to have your mind blown.

“Do you have the freedom to live the life of your dreams; to travel when you want, to spend time with your loved ones, to know that money is coming in even if you’re not there?” – Kaylene Langford.

And lucky for you, she’s sharing six oh-so helpful tips so you can do the same. “A lot of these steps are about stopping, stepping back from being in the business, and actually taking a look at what needs to be done in order to grow.” Find the freedom to live and work the way you want by implementing these six simple steps into your daily routine.

“I can guarantee you that if you can start your day with that foundation, then no matter what comes – what rejections, what words, what feelings arise in you – you’re going to be okay. You won’t take it personally and you know you’ll be able to handle it.”   Girl boss and founder of Startup Creative, Kaylene Langford, shares her insights into the world of rejection and provides solid advice for those of us starting our own businesses.   “You can create a life and a business that happens with ease because you’ve surrounded yourself with the right people.”   Kaylene takes us through her step-by-step process of dealing with rejection including, acceptance, reactions, minimisation, learning to say no, the importance of doing your research, and being true to yourself.   “Before you jump on your emails, or your Instagram and start being everything for everybody else, be there for you.”   This is tried and tested, actionable advice for anyone needing a boost or a reminder that rejection is just part of the process.
