Send us a textY'all, we have a trio on the podcast today. I'm so excited to welcome Dr. Theresa Ashby and Catherine Curry-Williams to the podcast. Cat is a dynamic speaker and bestselling author known for her raw, authentic, and caring approach while Dr. Ashby challenges the status quo through her high-energy, cutting-edge, and humorous presentation leaves audiences re-imagining the future of business. Both are experts on collective giving and are reimagining philanthropy with their grassroots organization, The She Angels Foundation, where they are pooling their resources to make a big impact through $5,000 grants to underfunded organizations. What struck me most was their emphasis on making philanthropy accessible and fun – turning it into a "party" where members can see their dollars at work. They are challenging the notion that you need to be a major donor to make a difference, showing how small, consistent contributions can add up to create real change. After listening to this episode, you'll feel energized about the potential for this model to transform the nonprofit and “community” landscape.Topics:The power of collective giving and using strategic giving to make a huge impact with small donations while fostering communityHow Theresa and Catherine are reimagining what it means to be in community via diversity, belonging, openness and freedom – especially for women Why Catherine believes people are inherently good, and how Dr. Ashby is helping people learn how to implement that goodLiving out your values not even in your daily life, but through your philanthropic efforts too in order to emulate how others can do the same Recognizing that the younger generations are now in the position where they can teach us about giving, monetarily and beyond For a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Get early access and exclusive bonuses: sign up for the waitlist now!Resources: Purpose & Profit Club™ Coaching Program [Get on the waitlist for bonuses] Instagram, LinkedIn, website Purpose and Profit Club weekly newsletter Click here for our Free Guide: 10 Winning Email Subject Lines May contain affiliate links

Today's Guest: Liz Svatek Liz is the CEO of Warrior Women Inc, a seven-figure personal growth business founded upon women unleashing their inner warrior and becoming the most powerful versions of themselves. She is the creator of the warrior women mastermind, a transformational program bringing women together nationwide. And she is the host of the Conversations with Warrior Women Podcast, which is globally ranked in the top 1.5%. Liz travels worldwide, speaking, healing, and empowering women to lean into their limitless possibilities and reclaim their power.From this episode:"I think when we use that term (hustle), people fill their calendars, but they're not filling their calendars with meaningful items, projects, or tasks that move our businesses or personal lives forward. Everybody here, all the listeners, know my why is because my nieces and nephews block time for their games or to take them to dinner or lunch or take them on their trips for their sports."-Dr. T"The hustle thing is a very old paradigm where we think we have to work harder and harder to keep up with men to keep up with the money, all the things, and I think letting that go and being in a more intuitive space, women are receivers. So being in a more intuitive place to receive things to be a little more slow, deliberate, calm, and connected is really who we are. And when women are in that space, you don't have to hustle. The clients come, and the opportunities arise because you are aligned and chill-hustling. You know, people get turned off when you're overly in people's faces and chasing them down. That's not the energy you want to bring to a situation. You want to get more receiver energy and be there and connect. So I don't think we need to hustle. I think we need to drop the hustle."

In addition, he led the development of yearly program goals, metrics, evaluations, and strategies that met organizational grant and donor objectives. Juan has an MA in social entrepreneurship from Pepperdine University.From this episode: "I think when we allow people in their communities to find their solution, they want that solution; they want to figure it out. And you can make change faster by infusing resources, or as you said, being that conduit that facilitator exponentially. And I think people get the whole concept here a little confused, social responsibility, what does that look like, community-based activities." -Dr. T"For me, it's about having listeners understand that I think we have the opportunity to change the world. And it's our responsibility to find how we're spending our time and spending our money to drive that and make that change. And I think it's what we'll see in the next several years; this social enterprise movement has become at the forefront of how we engage as consumers and how we want to engage with companies. And I believe we will see some of the best innovations from Orange County or Southern California that will impact the world.

She is the author of 24 Ways to Get Paid to Speak and runs a booking agency, Prather Marketing. She specializes in setting up marketing plans for professional speakers through phone calls, email campaigns, social media, and marketing materials. From this episode:It's this old dilemma of getting paid or doing it for free. And, you know, I have to tell you some of the biggest rewards I have received for finding the target-rich audience, the people that are my ideal clients, I've shown up for free to do a speaking engagement. And I've made more money out of that speaking engagement that was free."-Dr. T"You cannot speak on anything; you are not the expert on every topic. So I always say choose three industries that resonate with your message the most and dive deep into those—one of my clients. Frank King always says the riches are in the niches because he plunges deep. He works in the construction industry. And that's where most of his gigs come from. So if you can become that go-to expert in the industry that you're targeting, that's the best way to keep yourself busy and get those gigs happening, and bring those association meetings and get the word out that you are the experts that people want to hear from."-Nona Pratherhttps://prather-marketing.com/nona@prather-marketing.com

Lisa lives in northern Arizona and loves trail running, cooking, reading, traveling, food kickboxing, and spin class.From this episode: "When I plan, I know exactly what I'm going to do. And I do it in business, too. When we create a program that we do, as we've just launched something new at Kaleidoscope Media Services, our whole technology platform is KMS powered, and I will tell you, we are so excited about it that you can feel it. And it's so much easier to build the relationship and talk about this is what we're doing—not selling anything. I'm just talking about what we're doing. And that's why you started talking about this whole bucket list and getting down when I first met you. But, still, I also think this piece of you allows people to have this insecurity because we all have insecurity about our finances, like do we have enough? Am I doing it right? Am I doing it wrong? And we do walk in going; I'm going to be embarrassed. And I love that you're like, let's change the conversation. Let's change our language around it."-Dr. T"Bucket list planning could be seen as goal planning, but I actually dig really deep into the why of the goal and the bucket list item. It's not a goal for 30 years from now when you might be hanging it up and deciding you want to do something different. It's the goal that we're going to try to accomplish now. Because how do you know who you are in retirement if you haven't experienced anything now? You don't know what you like and don't, so we build it into your planning. So it's a great motivation to save because it's part of your savings strategy. "-Lisa Sakaihttps://www.onevisionretire.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisasakai/

After leaving the corporate world to pursue her business ventures, Wanda founded Follow Up Sales Strategies. She's an expert in helping entrepreneurs, business owners, and sales professionals increase pipelines, improve sales performance, and strengthen relationships by developing strong follow-up skills. From this episode:"When I find I'm very passionate about my work. Like, I love what we do. It's helping people grow their businesses; it's creating time and freedom for them. And it's all these things that I love. And I find that I'm really not entering a sales call; I'm entering a relationship. And when I'm thinking about it and doing a service, the fear sort of goes away because I'm coming in at a different angle."-Dr. T"You are asking the prospect questions rather than you talking, talking, and throwing everything you can do and how great you are. That's the turnout. So, there's a saying, be more interested than interesting. So be interested in the prospect. So, where are you in terms of your follow-up? What habits do you have? Where do you struggle? Where are you successful? It's whatever your product or services, so prospects will put them at ease. And listen, we like people who are interested in us that feed our ego, we all have an ego, and that person will be a lot more likable. So it's putting the focus on the prospect because truly, you want to find out how you can best help them and where they are, you know, it's called meeting them where they are, yes, and, you know, working from the same page."-Wanda Allenhttps://followupsalesstrategies.com/
Today's Guest: Karen AbramsKaren is a UCLA-educated entrepreneur, Master theta healer, gifted, intuitive, and international best-selling author. For 20 years, she has helped entrepreneurs and professionals release self-sabotaging habits and gain confidence, financial security, and personal fulfillment. Karen works with clients worldwide to transform their subconscious beliefs and break free from the trapped emotions, traumas, and limiting mindsets to build the financial and personal success they desire and deserve. She is known for integrating her energetic work with practical tools to produce powerful results. Her insights and healing abilities have made her a rising star on radio podcasts, the International telesummit circuit in the human potential movement.From this episode:" I had a lot of self-doubts, just everything crept in, and yet, other people around me always said, you're great, you're so successful. And all of that support and all of that conversation for me, I was almost fearful because it put me into a position of OK; now, I have to be successful. And it wasn't until I turned the corner or finally said, wait a second. It's OK. I don't know everything. It's OK, and I became OK with making mistakes. OK, with, quite frankly, looking stupid on stage, you got to make mistakes. And then you realize I'm OKOK. This wasn't the end of the world. " -Dr. T"As much as we don't want to feel jealous, we feel jealous. And one of the things that I found out about jealousy is that it's really just about being stuck. And so that when you feel jealous, go, Oh, where am I stuck? It's OK that you're jealous. But where am I stuck? That is because then you can do something about where you're stuck. So anytime I get triggered that way, that's where I go straight to that. And I also do this other really wonderful thing. That is, I say, I acknowledge, accept, and I allow it. So you say I get that I feel jealous that so and so is doing better than I am. And I feel like I'm ten times as smart as they are, right? And I say I acknowledge it; I accept it. And I allow it. And what that does is it takes a judgment out because we judge ourselves so harshly. So that's why I do all this inner critic work and inner bully work." -Karen Abramshttps://thinktheta.com/
Systematize Your Revenue Streams Through Digital Automation!In this episode of #Poised for Exit I had the honor of interviewing Dr. Theresa Ashby, Founder of Kaleidoscope Media Services. On top of running a successful firm, "Dr. T" is also an author, professional speaker, and podcast host. We talked today about how businesses today should strongly consider adding digital products and educational content to their business model, for a variety of reasons. The purpose for adding digital products will vary from client to client. Some are interested in expanding their reach and offering online courses that can share knowledge and expertise as a revenue stream. Some firms are looking to educate and motivate internal teams, whether they work locally or in other geographic locations. This strategy can be a perfect solution for employers trying to build culture with employees who are all over the map. Dr. T says the use of online communities where people can have conversations at a different level are a great way to build teamwork and values. Kaleidoscope Media Services provides creative solutions to companies looking to accomplish these elusive objectives.Dr. T offered many more valuable tips and advice!

Today's Guest: Megan DowdMegan Dowd is a neurodiverse entrepreneur, business strategist, coach, and storyteller. With her human-first biz second approach, she is helping new and seasoned business owners build a better human connection with themselves and their clients, leaning into who they are and what they stand for. After nearly a decade as a professional actress and a Jill of all trades in that industry, Megan decided to go into business for herself. There she learned that the skills she acquired in acting reciprocated into business. Megan started MD and CO in 2018 and celebrated leveraging her client's strengths, transparency, values, and building a connection. She also made Hello, CEO in 2020, to help support neurodiverse entrepreneurs to build where they can thrive in a business world that isn't one size fits all. It's so true. She is also the founder of the original Spicy Soapbox, where she candidly discusses various topics. Offline you can find her cold drinking brew cuddling with fluffy cats, and eating plenty of snacks.From this episode:"I think many people are leaving corporate America because they are coming up with really good ideas to help with the current environment; the ideas have to be different. You cannot do business the same anymore. I don't care what industry you're in, and I think people are going in having these ideas and constantly being shut down. And that, to me, affects people on an intense emotional level when they know this could shift a business." Dr. T"One of the things I do with clients is rather than starting with like, what are the things you value, we begin by digging into their stories, we start by digging into peak experiences, we start digging into moments of transcendence, and what are the actions? What are the behaviors? What experiences made you feel like the most human you are? And from there, what is the language? This is where the acting comes in, and I get to get really nerdy about it. My acting training was in classical theater. So, give me all the language, and let's dig into the language. And the most significant thing is, it doesn't matter how I define the word; how does it feel in your mouth? How does it feel in your body? So, it's semi-somatic work because it doesn't matter what it feels like, to me, it doesn't matter how it sounds, to me, it doesn't matter what connotations I have, it matters to you, it's the cause we can always finesse the external expression, that's easy. Find the internal expression first, and get your version of that language in your body. And then we can finesse the external. That's complex, but it's in the grand scheme. It's easy. It's complex, but it's easy." Megan Dowd
When companies grow, they are increasing their revenue as fast as they are adding resources to help fuel growth. When companies scale, on the other hand, they add revenue at a faster rate than they increase their cost structure. The company's gains outpaced its losses, allowing it not only to grow - but also to scale. Although there is a plethora of advice now being given about how to grow and scale your fledging start-up, there's a dirty little secret out there: Once you've achieved rapid growth, the hard work really begins. Scaling is hard. Scalability is about capacity and capability. Does your business have the capacity to scale? Will your business systems, infrastructure and team be able to accommodate scale? Dr. Theresa Ashby knows the actions, math and science behind systematically creating results that are reliable, repeatable, and worth celebrating. As the COO of Kaleidoscope Media Services, she consults with companies and individuals on how to take their big ideas into stunning bottom-line results and beyond. —> Are you ready to join the most impactful community of extraordinary women in the world?

Today's Guest: Melissa ReavesMelissa Reaves is a Seattle-based executive storytelling mentor; she helps leaders shine by utilizing the power of professional storytelling skills that she uses on stages across the world. She has a new book coming out entitled How to Tell Great Stories in Business, and pre-sales are going to happen in August. From this episode:"We have a responsibility when we're on stage if we've been invited to talk, no matter the situation, to come from our authentic perspective because many people do the same thing we do. But it's our story. And the way we're teaching it and being authentic out there. It gives goosebumps when people tell that great story. And I've seen amazing people on stage tell exceptional stories and bring you to tears, but they also bring you to laughter. It's like this balance between tears, laughter, and connection." Dr. T"Are they going to remember your pie chart when you leave the room? Are they going to remember the story of the problem that the customer is having that you're solving? So opening with the story, opening with the narrative is what they're going to remember. And that's then going to set up all the graphs and charts to be much more interesting, right? Because now it's not just a statistic; it now has people underneath it. And you now are more emotionally engaged. So that's more leaning in, in a business context." -Melissa Reaves

It's a focus-driven and outcome-driven seriousness while maintaining who you are. And you're living the life you want to live. So that seriousness helps you get directed." Dr. T"That is one thing I know that's so important for entrepreneurs; we have to fill our cup up. Because if we're depleted, we're unable to fill other people's cups up. And all too many times. It's the complete opposite. The business owners and the entrepreneurs are depleting themselves. And then that's where they go into an emotional breakdown or upset and possibly resent the thing they created because they're not filling themselves up. Yeah, that's the number one important thing to do as an entrepreneur is fill up your cup." -Brigette Sobushttps://powerandjoycoachingacademy.comRemember to sign up for Brigette's free ebook: 3 most common blocks you will encounter with your clients and the signs you'll need to look for when identifying them.

It's not the tactical pieces. It's overarching, how are you building your life, and I know I have to consciously put things on my calendar, such as spend time with the family or spend time with friends, take off and go golfing, because if it's not there, then it just gets absorbed into everything else. So the hustle gets pretty tough. -Dr. TI think you need to look inwards and spend a lot of time reflecting on your values, the pattern in your life, the defining moments, and leaning into the pain. And you are coming up with a story that you want to share with the world that has all of this integrated into it that showcases your values, defining moments, and pattern. And basically, ask yourself, what do you want to live in this world beyond you? -Lubna Forzleyhttp://www.lubnaforzley.com

And they're like, I'm so busy booking my appointments, I'm so busy sending this out. So, I say, stop. Now, with technology. You can automate this and reduce the in-person time by creating eLearning courses. -Dr. TI became a student of the Cashflow Quadrant... Consider moving to the right side of the quadrant where you have something repeatable, duplicatable, a process. There's an awesome book; I'm sure you know it called E Myth, and they talk about it in that book. 80% of businesses fail in the first five years, but 75% succeed if they have a duplicatable system, you know, absolute though, having that what. In any business, there can be an element that's duplicatable that you can duplicate yourself. I love learning about that and helping others. -Lisa Williamshttps://lisawilliamsco.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-williams-a148588/E-mail: lisa@lisawilliamsco.com
