Podcasts about why are we shouting

What do you get when you mix a multi-passionate person with a bit of boredom? Coach, speaker, and businesswoman Jill Salzman. The founder of Founding Moms likes a challenge: “Can I make money from something that sounds nuts?” Jill shares with Jeanne why trusting yourself is important; why telling everyone your mistakes helps you grow; why slowing down can reap multi-faceted rewards; how she ended up starting, growing, and selling three seemingly unrelated businesses; and why you don't always need an “expert” for your business. Jill Salzman turns the mundane into inspiration and transforms the impossible into the achievable. Through defying expectations and breaking the rules, she succeeds in inspiring entrepreneurs to figure out what works for them by using meaningful action to create positive results. Jill is the author of The Best Business Book In The World* (*According To My Mom) and the Amazon best-seller, Found It: A Field Guide for Mom Entrepreneurs. She's shared the speaker stage with Richard Branson, Sheryl Sandberg, Daymond John, Marilu Henner, and Desmond Tutu among others, and professed her love of Eddie Vedder in her TEDx talk on 11/11/11. She hosted the top-rated entertaining business podcasts, Breaking Down Your Business, and then Why Are We Shouting?, a question she asks herself daily.CNNMoney called her a “mogul.” MSN Live said she's a “Cool Entrepreneur We Love.” Forbes rated her a Top 100 Champion Small Business Influencer and voted her third business, The Founding Moms, one of the Top 10 Websites For Entrepreneurs. When she's not speaking to audiences in patterned leggings or podcasting from her basement, she fruitlessly tries to convince her daughters that cassette tapes actually existed.Website: https://jillsalzman.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/jillll

Brian is our guest this episode and he transitioned his side hustle into a full-time venture 8 years ago after a company lay off. He founded Contigo Advisors to guide entrepreneurs to scale with confidence, master their finances, and build lasting wealth. In this episode, we talk about: Brian's experience watching his dad struggle with a home repair in the face of a layoff was motivation to focus on his finances. We talked about the comfort and consistency corporate life can offer and how he saw so many corporate professionals stagnating and just operating in a continuous loop. Brian talked about how the transition from employee to entrepreneur was a little smoother since he had been doing it as a side hustle for a few years prior. He talks about how the climb was not always easy. There were times of self doubt, loneliness and sacrifices that sometimes made him question if it was worth it. However, he persevered and was resilient and is enjoying success now.

Thanks for dropping by. I'm a writer, producer and communicator with over 15 years of experience in leadership roles in the media and entertainment industries. I started out as a publicist at Thomas Nelson Publishers (now HarperCollins). Then I launched a literary PR firm that, over its nine year existence, served debut novelists and New York Times best-sellers. Along the way, five of my novels were published. In this second decade of my career, I've written a few biographies and novellas, co-written and co-produced a television screenplay based on one of my novels, founded a non-profit geared to put the power of stories to positive cultural use, and then... ... launched out here solo. Today, I write, produce, and look for ways to put the power of writing toward positive means. Through it all, I value the tribe of writers and creatives within which I live and move and have authentic being.Find this week's podcast recommendation list here: https://www.earbudspodcastcollective.org/mom-entrepreneurs-podcast-recommendationsThis week's podcast picks:Why Are We Shouting?!Hear I AmRox TalksThe Support SquadStartup ParentThis week's spotlight: PlanthropologyIf you're on this planet, plants have a HUGE impact on your life.

What's In This Episode: Why do we ever explain our pricing to people? We want people to like us. And we certainly don't want to lose them if the price isn't right for them.
