Does personal branding have a place in the manufacturing space? It might be something you associate more with marketing or creative industries, but this week's guest has seen her personal branding efforts open doors to new and exciting opportunities. Nikki Gonzales, the Head of Partnerships at Quotebeam and Co-Host of the Automation Ladies podcast (amongst many other projects) joins this episode to talk about personal branding and the importance of trust. Trust is a key theme in this episode, and personal branding can go a long way in building it within your network. But it also comes up when we chat about why companies are sometimes hesitant for employees to work on their personal brands. For Nikki, it's important that companies trust their employees, like Quotebeam did for her. We dive into how Nikki has built her brand and network and the benefits she and Quotebeam have experienced as a result. We also talk about Nikki's background, having moved from Iceland to the UK to Texas, where she learned about the world of tech sales and the importance of networking.In this episode, find out:What Nikki learned growing up in Iceland, moving to the UK and eventually to Houston Nikki shares the story of her first sale at her dad's companyWhy Nikki made the jump to software based on the kind of lifestyle she wantedHow a long networking relationship led to Nikki getting her role at Quotebeam Why Nikki decided to focus more on her personal branding How Nikki's personal branding efforts are also benefitting QuotebeamWhy companies are hesitant to trust employees working on a personal brandNikki shares how she came to start and co-host the Automation Ladies podcast Nikki explains the work Quotebeam does and teases some new developments in the future Enjoying the show?

You can go out on your own and do all kinds of stuff.

When you look back on your career trajectory, what do you notice? Do you see an even trajectory in your career path? Or has your career taken some hard curves outside of the expected norms? What can seem like a setback in our planned career path can sometimes lead us to experiences that we would never have pursued - opening us up to ideas and possibilities that we would never have imagined.It is moments like these that can often help us break free from the machine of proving, striving, and grinding and actually reconnect to who we truly are and what we really want to contribute with our lives.  Of course it's true that setbacks in our professional plans can be costly, painful, and downright scary. Some of the pain of setbacks can take a toll on our confidence and well-being and finances. But the time between paths, as we hop off the hamster wheels of shoulds to figure out who we are and what we want to do, isn't wasted.Today's guest has moved through deep disappointment when the job she had been working towards suddenly fell through. And she has also co-founded a female-led tech business with a commitment to mental well-being with her staff by cultivating an environment where everyone feels valued, heard, and motivated to contribute their unique skills and perspectives. Martha Bitar is the CEO of Flodesk, a visually stunning and user-friendly platform that helps creators sell online and design emails people love to get. Martha is known for her passion for people, design, and helping small business owners succeed.Listen to the full episode to hear:How Martha conflated her worthiness with professional accomplishment, and the moment she finally paused to ask herself what she really wantedHow reconnecting with her body and her physical reactions helped steer Martha towards work that actually excited herWhy Martha is so passionate about helping small businesses make the most of email marketingThe values that Martha and her co-founder deliberately infused into Flodesk from the beginningWhy Martha says that Flodesk does not have a culture and how it impacts their hiring practicesHow Flodesk strives to support the true wellbeing of their team membersLearn more about Martha Bitar:FlodeskInstagram: @flodeskLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:The Baddies, Julia Donaldson and Axel SchefflerForrest Gump

It's the last episode of 2022! And the New Year is a time when many of us think about goals for the coming year. But have you ever set parenting goals?Learn what parenting goals are and how to use them to pivot behavior and teach your kids new skills and values.What are parenting goals?A parenting goal is a goal that you set for your kids based on something that you see as a gap that they need to learn. There are a LOT of things that kids need to learn between the time they're little all the way until the time that they're grown. Kids need to have skills like time management, social competency, conflict resolution, personal hygiene, understanding money, how to cook clean, how to pack for a trip and (eventually) how to drive. You also have values that are important to you as a parent. You might want your child to learn values like kindness, generosity, gratitude, self reliance or work ethic. It can be overwhelming when you look at all these different areas and see where your kid isn't meeting the standards you envision in the long term.Rather than judge yourself or your kids for these gaps in knowledge, you can think about where your kid is now in a certain area, where you want them to be and set a goal to help them get there. And we can't tackle them all at once. The goal setting process allows you to identify what is most important to you that your child learns now.How to set your parenting goalsSelecting one or two parenting goals at a time will help you be intentional and strategic. And the more intentional we are about our children and what they need to learn, the more likely we'll reach each parenting goal.Step 1: Name your parenting goalWhen you look at your child right now, what specific skill or value would you like to help them learn?Think about where their behavior seems off-track or problematic. Then fill in the blank: If my child had _______ skill/value, they wouldn't act like this. Often when I talk about limits, I say that when a behavior is driving you crazy, it's time for a limit. This is also a great clue to your parenting goals. It probably means your child is missing a skill or hasn't had enough practice with a value that is important to you.Step 2: Create a planWhat limits do you need to put into place to reach the specific goal that you have in mind?What will happen if they don't follow through on their part of the plan or hold your limit?Step 3: Follow throughWe set limits in order to create a container for our kids to pivot a behavior or learn a new skill. And they have to be allowed to fail until they realize they don't want to mess up anymore.Remember, when your kid experiences the impact of their behavior, they learn from it and the behavior will change faster. Sometimes, we need to bring those impacts into our family because we can't always wait for natural consequences to take place. Doing this isn't mean. And we can do it without criticizing, lecturing or comparing them to others. You'll Learn:What to do when the goal you set isn't having the result you wantedHow to use parenting goals to help your kids learn the skills and values that will serve them (and your whole family) long termWhich goals you should focus on firstHow to create a goal plan - with super detailed examplesCTAInside my new parenting class, Raise Emotionally Healthy Kids, you'll set and work toward your own parenting goals using my Calm Mama Process.And when you aren't sure what goal to set or how to get there, you don't have to do this work all by yourself. You can come to a live coaching call or ask your questions in...

Last episode, I told the story of how Steve and I started Worst of All Design and how it evolved into the No BS Agency model.Today, I want to share one more reason why that model is so valuable.When you're running an agency, the hustle is constant. Constantly trying to fill your pipeline, constantly pitching, constantly chasing and closing clients, then all the work for those clients you landed. Plus communications, various fires that always need putting out, meetings…People build these agencies because they love creative work and because they want to help clients, but they build it in a model that inherently makes work-life balance almost impossible. The truth is the agency life is hard. Which is one reason why Steve and I had to create another way forward.Tune into this episode to hear:How the intensives model gives us the freedom and flexibility we always wantedHow we use chunk and stack to manage our scheduleHow intensives eliminate client anxiety and give you back your personal lifeHow intensives let you make upfront investments in time, money and audience for building passive income productsLearn more about Pia: No BS Agency Owners Free Facebook GroupThe Show Your Business Who's Boss Crash Course Start reading the first chapter of my bookPiasilva.com

Subscribe: iTunes | Android | RSS Pierre Couvillion is a rare expert in Sanskrit, mantras and using sound to pierce the veils of your mind, body and soul. Most of us do not know how to use our own voice to express what we honestly feel. Even fewer of us know how to use sounds to heal, relax and fuel personal growth. With over two decades of live experience in Sanskrit, Pierre takes this ancient mystical knowledge and makes it easy to understand and easy to benefit from in modern living. He offers clear practices and techniques for accessing the power found in mantras. Sanskrit mantras are encoded with specific vibrational frequencies. When you use a particular mantra correctly you can tune into its specific energy and its power. Mantras can be used to gain higher perspective, calm the nerves, steady the mind, and clear dullness, to active the body, connect to your soul, for holistic healing and many more real world applications. Sanskrit has no traceable history and is considered the oldest recorded language on Earth. The power of Sanskrit is in allowing the individual a personal journey through sound from the inside out. This journey creates an opportunity to discover your own voice; to reclaim the power of your own sound. Sanskrit is a technology where words are organized based on how the palette strikes the brain. The meter and tones used in Sanskrit are designed to help you learn sounds which already are inside you. This is stored energy most of us are not using. We are literally missing out on resources already at our disposal. The use of mantras becomes the activator for this stored energy, stimulating its flow in our life. Pierre shows us how to produce sounds which match the vibrations of what generates authentic fulfillment. His expert voice guides the practice of cultivating your own sound using the underlying current of frequencies and the ancient wisdom of Sanskrit. When using this technology the powers a mantra contains become available to you. Pierre offers a practice to awaken your native spiritual energy and have it flow with ease. Traditionally mantras are thought to be a key part of stimulating higher levels of consciousness. They help deepen self understanding and the connection to all life. Sanskrit teaches using language to become more aware. Sound opens the doors to life around us leading to ultimate living and fulfillment. Pierre believes you need to go try it for yourself and not take his word for it. Listen in with Pierre as he pulls back the esoteric veil of Sanskrit, mantras and reveals the keys to using this ancestral technology in your own life…Here’s What Else You Will Get From Pierre’s InterviewThe windows of language and how to look through themHow to step into a culture in its true manifestationAn easy to follow mantra for removing your own inner obstaclesWhy singing is important to lifeWhy you should be singing no matter how you think you soundThe five mouth positions and how sounds affects the brainWhat happens when you have achieved everything you have ever wantedHow to wake up your inner child and why it’s so important to do soWhat are the gardening traditions and how you can benefit from themWhy tones in Sanskrit carry more meaning and powerTools to disconnect from thinking and connect with what you are feelingMantras you can start with and what vibrations they carryThe first steps to activating your own true voiceWhat steps you can take to connect to the greatness of your personal lineageThe real reason why every person should know the Sanskrit alphabetA great tip for yoga teachers to apply in classA map for your own inner experience with soundWhat is the true language of sacred spellsRealizing the importance of elders on your pathUsing sound meditation to invoke the best process for your lifeWhy different sounds come from different parts of the paletteThe first three basic mouth positions for any mantraHow you can better understand the subtleties and nuances of mantrasDiscover the tool of sound to help invoke health and wealth for your business and familyWhy deers shake after near death encounters and what this has to do with human lifeHow to go beyond limits to be truly happyAnd much, much more…Books, Links, Movies and Other Resources Mentioned In This Episode:www.ayurveda.comAwaken (Movie about Yogananda’s Life)Books by Vasant Lad
