In this episode, the two Steph's are shifting gears again, to talk about how all of the foundational stuff we've talked about so far, feels in our bodies. We speak at length about the book The Body Keeps the Score, by renowned Boston-based Psychiatrist, Bessel van Der Kolk.  The book came highly recommended to both the Steph's, and at the time of this recording, Steph Laffey had finally started reading it after avoiding it for years. She was only 70 pages in, but as she likes to say, her brain was one giant pretzel already. Since recording this episode, Steph Taylor also started reading the book. So expect a followup episode next week, with a very special guest!  In the meantime, in this episode we discussed questions like: What does “the body keeps the score” mean to both of us? Why were both of us afraid to read this book? What does it mean to “know what you know and feel what you feel?” What are some examples of our own bodies “keeping the score”? All that & more on this epsiode of Becoming Human AF Podcast! We'd love to hear your thoughts on our bodies keeping the score. How has this theme shown up in your life?  REFERENCES: Our friend, Julie Cyvonne microdosing mentor for professional women The Body Keeps the Score (book) by Bessel Van der Kolk, M.D.

In this Epsiode the two Steph's chat about boundaries, which, understandably have become a popular topic of discussion in the online space.  However, many people misunderstand what boundaries are and what their role is in our lives. Including Steph Laffey.  The boundary belongs to the person setting it; the responsibility to communicate & uphold it also belongs to the person setting it.  In this episode, Steph Taylor teaches this to Steph Laffey (& blows her mind in the process!) All that & more on this epsiode of Becoming Human AF Podcast! We'd love to hear your thoughts on boundaries. How has this theme shown up in your life? 

Meet your cohosts, Steph and Steph! Although we share a name we lead vastly different lives. Steph Laffey lives in NYC with her two pups and is part of corporate America, while Steph Taylor lives in Manitoba, Canada with her two kids and is a homesteader & mentor for women looking to learn the skills of our great grandmothers'! Despite our differences, countless discussions over the last couple of years have led us both to major breakthroughs; deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us; and a beautiful friendship. Our conversations have had such a profound impact on both of us, and created such a ripple effect in our lives, that we decided to turn them into a podcast. This episode is where we introduce ourselves, share our intentions and welcome you on this journey with us as we continue to become human AF.

"Don't wait to be ready to take action, take action to be ready." I love this quote from Jensen Siaw and it captures the theme of this episode with online business superstar Steph Taylor. Steph explains the power of taking imperfect action, as well as how to - - Build a business that gives you time, location and financial freedom. - Show up on social media and on stage, even if you're an introvert. - Deal with negative comments online. - Learn to love your voice.

On this week's show I sat down with my friend and incredibly successful online business strategist Steph Taylor. Steph helps service-based business owners build profitable and sustainable online businesses that continue to grow even when they're offline.  This was a great discussion on Steph's business journey, what's worked and what hasn't, and how she has managed to find success. Steph and I worked together for 2 years, so it was great fun to revisit that time, reflect on her journey and hear all her insights on online business. From business to mental health, this is a great discussion on business and life.  In 12 months, Steph took her online business from $100K to $1 million, and the best bit? This didn't come with the trade-off of more hustle and more time. In fact, by creating a solid online business and sales engine, she was able to take weeks off to hike around the outback with a tent on her back, and be off the grid for a month in a camper van with her furry best pal, Archie. By leaning on strategy over tactics, value over the hard sell, and longevity over quick wins, Steph believes that a successful online business shouldn't feel like you're pushing an elephant up the hill, but instead should feel fun, flowy, and fulfilling. Through her podcast Imperfect Action that's clocked over 2 million downloads and in supporting over 4,000 paid students and counting, Steph today teaches online businesses how they too can create financial, choice, time, and location freedom through her framework that blends strategy, content, sales, systems, and mindset.

As I always say – you don't need to be an extrovert to be good at business or to have a successful business. You can be an introvert AND build a 6 or 7-figure business.But being an introvert and growing a business in the online space means that sometimes you gotta step out of your comfort zone and do things that feel a little uncomfortable.Let me be clear – it's not about completely changing who you are, it simply means taking into consideration your strengths and doing things a little bit differently.And today's guest on the How I Do Content Podcast is someone who really embraces their introverted superpowers and in doing so has built a phenomenal business – and that's Steph Taylor. Steph is an online business strategist, who helps service-based business owners build profitable and sustainable online businesses that continue to grow even when they're offline. In 12 months, Steph took her online business from $100K to $1 million.

I can hardly believe it, but this is the 50th episode of Priority Pursuit! Kelsey (my podcast editor), Maile (who writes many of the blog posts and show notes), and I have been creating episodes for a full year, and I've loved getting to hang out with each and every one of you on a weekly basis.  That said, while we're now a year into Priority Pursuit, I dreamed of starting a podcast for a few years before it came to fruition. With my workload as a wedding photographer and as an SEO coach, I had no idea how I was going to be able to maintain a podcast well.  But, between the help of contractors, setting up workflows, and choosing the right tools, having a podcast is now something I'm able to pretty easily fit into my schedule.  And, in case you're dreaming of starting a podcast, in this episode of Priority Pursuit, we're celebrating 50 episodes by discussing how and why to start a podcast as a creative entrepreneur.  How to Start a Podcast as a Creative Entrepreneur Decide why you want to start a podcast & your podcast's unique brand position.  Decide on a format for your podcast.  Determine how you want to monetize your podcast.  Hire a podcast editor & a writer to transcribe episodes for you.

The 4th installment of the ambition series is here! On this latest installment I was joined by Steph Taylor of Colorway Productions. Steph has been a great friend and colleague to both myself and the brand over the last 6 months or so. We met through instagram when he reached out to see if we'd be interested in doing some brand content for social media. I was immediately struck by his professionalism and creativity. So it comes as no surprise that Steph was able to to turned his passion of video production from a side hustle into a real fast growing business. He has grown Colorway Productions from what was originally a solo operation into a small talented team of filmmakers and production specialists. We look forward to what the future holds for the Colorway team and it is privilege to have them in our corner supporting what we are all about.

Even once we've beaten the odds and become successful, doubt can come creeping in. It's ok to feel not good enough, as long as you push through that. Success isn't a magic wand that zaps all your insecurities away. Coming to terms with your worth is an ongoing process. Welcome to Should I Start A Podcast,  where each week, Ronsley Vaz, with the help of a star-studded entrepreneurial guest lineup, explores why you should start a podcast, build an audience, and how to keep them hungry for more. If you're thinking about starting a podcast or simply looking for a better way to get your message out to your audience, then this is the podcast for you. Steph Taylor knows what she's doing. But she didn't always. Like most entrepreneurs, Steph kind of made it up as she went along.  She founded StephTaylor.co after her first business just didn't pan out the way she expected it to. StephTaylor.co is a virtual hub that helps online entrepreneurs launch and relaunch their online courses, memberships, digital products and podcasts.  And it turned out she was really amazing at creating businesses. And she was really amazing at showing other people how to do the same. But even with all this massive success, she still had that nagging little voice in the back of her head telling her she wasn't good enough. The voice would shake her sense of worth, even if she knew better. In fact, she still has to tell that same voice to shut up, even today. Today's episode is Part 2 of Steph and Ronsley's mic switch-up. To celebrate 300 episodes of Steph's podcast "Socialette", Steph asked our very own Ronsley, to interview her on her show. In the second part of their conversation, Steph tells us all about her marketing concepts. They are completely unique to her strengths. She also touches on tracking your social media returns and why she always leaves lots of white on her calendar. Take a listen to the conclusion of this fun interview.

Have you ever started a project and it just didn't work out the way you planned? How did that feel? Our podcasts and businesses are our babies. If the time should come to change direction or call it quits, how do you stop yourself from feeling the sting of failure? Welcome to Should I Start A Podcast,  where each week, Ronsley Vaz, with the help of a star-studded entrepreneurial guest lineup, explores why you should start a podcast, build an audience, and how to keep them hungry for more. If you're thinking about starting a podcast or simply looking for a better way to get your message out to your audience, then this is the podcast for you. Steph Taylor is a podcast superstar and launch strategy queen. One day Steph gave up sugar. It seemed like a good idea at the time. But, what she quickly found out was there weren't many tasty treats for people like her. That's when she had a fantastic business idea. Steph developed SugarFree Box, the Australian health food subscription box. As a solopreneur, she did everything herself. Handpicking products, packing up hundreds of orders, and shipping them off for customers to enjoy. Even though the business was gaining traction, it became clear that it just wasn't sustainable.  Steph's new apartment was essentially her warehouse. She didn't have the funds to outsource tasks. And worse still, all that work was wreaking havoc on her health. It was time to call it quits. That sense of failure was something she would have to come to terms with. Today, Steph is taking the online marketing space by storm. She is the founder of StephTaylor.co. It's a virtual hub that helps online entrepreneurs launch and relaunch their online courses, memberships, digital products and podcasts. Her goal is to help people have a more significant outreach, grow their impact, create more profit, and have more freedom in their businesses and their lives.  In today's episode, we're switching things up. To celebrate 300 episodes of Steph's podcast "Socialette", she asked our very own Ronsley, to interview her on her show. Socialette is a bite-sized online marketing show for business owners. It's chock full of memorable guests and marketing golden nuggets.  Steph may have been nervous in this interview, but she totally nailed it. She gave us some insight into her entrepreneurial journey and her new life as a fully-fledged podcaster.  Ronsley and Steph talk about podcast introduction etiquette and the stark realities of entrepreneurship. They look at the psychological workings of an entrepreneur and why sometimes it's often best to let some things go.  Other snippets in this episode: Why Steph feels vulnerable being interviewed in front of her listeners The welcome process and why you need to make an excellent first podcast impression How would Steph introduce herself at a BBQ?

Sponsoring Your Show for Maximum ROI Steph Taylor and the Socialette Podcast Marketing her business by running Facebook ads and through social media wasn’t adequate in the competitive marketing space. Starting a podcast was a solution to rising as an authority in the competitive marketing space. She runs her business under her brand, Steph Taylor, where she helps entrepreneurs bring their ideas to life through high-impact launches. Her business is supported by her podcast, which is her most significant social lead. Through her podcast, she shifted from service to digital products to help business owners on a larger scale. Podcasting Versus Blogging You spend long hours with a blog—writing, editing, uploading, making graphics. The work involved in blogging is far bigger than what people may think, and you only end up with words on pages. Launching a 5-minute podcast, on the other hand, which is almost 1,000 words, comprises an entire blog post. Solo Versus Guest Episodes When Steph first started, she posted 5- to 10-minute episodes three times a week to build a connection with her audience. Along the way, she realized that there are so many topics she’s not qualified or doesn’t know enough about to teach. That’s when she started bringing guests onto the show. Having interviews take a lot of content creation pressure off. It saves you from having to come up with ideas all the time. Interviews tend to get more downloads, which is a growth tactic because you gain a more extensive reach with the guest and their audiences sharing it as well. Episode Strategies Scripts are vital when you’re starting, but eventually, as you gain confidence, bullet points and a loose text will suffice. Steph says that she writes down the exact sentences she wants to include, but it doesn’t take a lot of time. Separately doing the intro allows you to touch on things covered in the episode accurately. Mentioning a download or a program in the introduction assures that the audience is still at their maximum attention. Growth and Bringing Listeners Steph utilized her email list to hype up her podcast launch. She got into Facebook groups and started telling people that she’s launching a bite-sized marketing podcast. She asked them to comment on questions about marketing, which became her content ideas. She also replied to each comment on when she will be covering these topics. Hence, they had a reason to tune in and listen to the podcast. To keep growing her audience, she goes into a Facebook group and searches for a topic keyword, and if somebody has asked a question around that, she mentions her episode. Pinterest as a Marketing Strategy Pinterest is an excellent source of free website traffic. Rather than promoting links directly to the podcast, it sends the audience to the blog post version on your website. About 5,000 hits out of 214,000 website visitors come from Pinterest. Her approach: She puts up a blog post for an episode, creates a pinnable graphic, which she has a template for, and then adds it onto the blog post. You don’t need to have a big following; you just need to have a well-optimized keyword. Think simply about what people would like to search for. Finding What Works and What Doesn't Facebook ads can either work extremely well or not at all. The ones that work are mostly videos. Video elements make it more engaging and are great for discovery and marketing. In the audio-only podcast, you get to look at other things and take notes easily. However, the extra effort versus the return that you get will be worth it. Understanding How to Launch Podcasts The first step is figuring out your potential listeners. Do not simply copy what everybody else is doing. Figure out what will make your podcast unique. You’re going to struggle to resonate with everyone because you’re never going to be everyone’s cup of tea. A very narrow niche will get you sponsors who are always willing to work with you. The more narrow your niche is, the more valuable your podcast will be. Making your podcast stand out is a fusion of what the market needs and what makes you unique. Monetisation Sell your own products and services. Get sponsorships. Do affiliate partnerships. It's a combination of podcasts and email marketing.
