Michelle lives in Richmond, Virginia with her husband Zane. In her down time, she's a Peloton fanatic and she's obsessed with her new spring loaded dance floors. Here's what we covered on the episode: Michelle's Current Business Model + Implementing SEO We originally met Michelle in episode 32 of The Design Business Show  Michelle shares that 2020 for her was all about getting more clear and focused, which made it her highest revenue generating year Now, Michelle is staying focused and trying to get clear on the next journey and says it's not about building a ton of websites because she's honestly only building one this year, but maintaining and doing stuff with clients Michelle has been doing a lot of what she calls rescue work where people have hired designers but need a fresh perspective from someone and shares that she helps give them direction which they can then pass on to their designer Michelle explains that a third of her business is affiliate business and that she's been focusing on her newsletter, which is very story-driven and explains that she makes sure she's selling within it and not just writing for the sake of writing How Michelle has been focused on working smarter and explains some of the things she's implemented in her business to do that When Michelle first started her business, there were a lot of things she avoided like e-commerce and SEO but says now when she blogs it is very SEO intentional and she helps teach her audiences how to use SEO to help them stand out Michelle suggests getting some knowledge on SEO and testing it out on your stuff first as a designer, because it is important and can help you be more effective, and says you should use multiple different channels for SEO During the year Michelle offers mentorships with designers and shares she really enjoys helping people build personal brands and has started to develop a program for how to build a memorable brand online If designers can focus on specialties, having certain aesthetics and learn the systems people use, along with some of the back-end work, Michelle says those designers will become so flexible and be able to charge premium rates Michelle's Journey When Michelle first started her business she met with a business coach who gave her the first 6 clients she worked with and says she would hand code 3 website designs for them to pick from and said she was only charging around $1,800 for the whole process How Michelle taught herself WordPress around 2008 and started doing WordPress websites for the yoga community—with each project she would bump up her price $100-200 and slowly she got around $3,500 and shares she really started to burnout in 2010/11 Michelle shares that she started to phase out the web design work she was doing because she was also working with a company that would pay her $5,000 - $10,000 to create comps of maps for universities Why Michelle has never been able to rely on one source of revenue and why you shouldn't either, because if they go away, you're screwed In 2011, Michelle took Marie Forleo's B-School, where she learned about marketing and all the things she had been avoiding and says Marie noticed her in the comments and put her in a video, which led to 70 people calling Michelle in one day After B-School, Michelle went to Marie's live event and was in her mastermind group where Marie told her that she could consult and that she should triple her rates, which she did eventually Michelle wants other designers to know that you have to make your own name for yourself whether that's through publicity, your credit line, co-teaching with your clients, because all of those things will help give you confidence which will help you on your sales calls, it will help you close deals, etc Working With Clients + Networking Michelle explains how she knows if a client will be a good fit for her, red flags she looks for and how she keeps her prices pretty solid so she doesn't get taken advantage of and shares a story of someone who tried to get services for free because they were a celebrity The majority of people Michelle works with have an expertise, they just might not have it in an online capacity or they might not know how to package it up to sell, but they know what they're talking about If a project is not going well, make sure you have a plan to get out as soon as you can; get paid upfront and make incentives for you to show up and for your client to show up We talk about having strict guidelines to help ourselves out with clients and share stories of times our work has been taken by someone else One thing Michelle wishes she would have not given so much time to is caring what other people thought about her How building your network is so important, so talk to other designers who you can collaborate with and who can send you clients Michelle's advice is to spend time where it matters by connecting with other designers, groups, people working in different industries that can share you with others and don't compare yourself to other people you see online because there's a lot of stuff they aren't showing Connect with Michelle on her website, where she has a lot of different free opt-ins, check out her design mentorship program and get on her email list to hear more updates about her personal branding courses   Links mentioned: Michelle's Website - Minima Designs The Design Business Show - Episode 32 Marie Forleo's B-School Michelle's Free Opt-ins Michelle's Design Mentorship Program Join Michelle's List   Like what you heard?

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk. You'll recognize yourself in these true-life stories from women who are walking their lives while their lives walk them and the lasting difference their journeys have made. I'm your host, Diane Wyzga.Today my guest is my long-time dear friend, storyteller and international business executive Michelle Desreux who is joining us from Victoria on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.Once upon a time I was teaching story in university. Michelle missed our first class but came dashing in to the second having just gotten off a plane from an international business trip. She introduced herself to the class and then I asked who was ready to tell a story based on the homework. No one moved. Michelle raised her hand, said, “I'll give it a go!” And stood up.What happened next was an invitation into a long-ago summer night on Gull Lake, Alberta when a young girl tried sneaking out of the family's cottage to join the other kids for a bonfire at the lake. I can still see and hear Michelle count down the steps, skip the ones that creaked, getting caught and sent back to bed after a fib about needing the outhouse, and starting all over again until she escaped! We were mesmerized.Yes! Michelle's extensive CV covers global business executive positions, business strategist, speaker, and educator who has devoted her career to helping people find relevant, timely solutions to a variety of business challenges. I expect we'll  hear about that as well as how a savvy international businesswoman succeeded because she knows how story can help people at all levels of organizations build their knowledge, skill and capacity to grow their business and their careers.I've invited Michele to join us so we could cover some of that ground as well as learning how to shift from illustrious career to living not retired…but ReFired! Welcome to the podcast, Michele!Minute 37:3300 to 3:03     Intro3:03 to 8:25     An Experience About What Drives StoryReminiscing about the place we began with storyDiverse group of storytellers learning togetherYou never know where stories will take youCohesion from beginning semester to master class to StoryWerx with performancesRecalling Michelle's story: can still see and hear it, the images, the sensations and feelings which is  evidence of masterful telling: the teller goes awayWhen we tap into the stories of our own lives we tap into the stories of others; it's a form of memoryCottage life and part of Michelle's growing upThe listener enters the story and repeats and enjoys the story all over againIt's a wonderful form of memory making even as a listenerWhat happens when we hear,”Once upon a time” there's an exchange: the teller and listener each become someone elseThe essence of the memory is what connects us - the images remind them of something in their life; that's the power!Difference between an anecdote and a story: something happens, something changes, something happensSomething was, something happens, something changesEmotional connection: What happens next?Stories eventually became a deep part of Michelle's workThe Back Story: We All Have One.8:30 to 18:10     And Then the Phone Rang; "Sure, I'll Give it a Go!"So we have some context for the life story you've been walking, I understand that 3 phone calls determined your destiny. Would you briefly share how the woman who wanted to work with elephants ended up cleared for take-off.Michelle was absolutely lunatic passionate to have a horse when she was a child and realized that dream living a child's country lifePhone Call #1: A friend called asking if Michelle would be interested in working in reservations in a Canadian start-up airline (Ward Air) and she said, “Sure! I'll give it a go!”This was supposed to be a part-time university gig until Michelle graduated so she could be the next Jane Goodall with elephantsThis path was not for her but discovered a leaning toward psychology and businessGraduated and now what?From there Ward Air executive offered her a job from Calgary to Toronto and Michelle said, “Sure! Let's give it a go!”4 weeks later arrived in Toronto wondering, “What have I done?”5 wonderful years followed of teaching others and travel!Phone Call #2: Would you come and comment on this new travel start-up which became a job opening back in Vancouver although Michelle knew nothing about company's mission: franchising and travel agenciesSure! Let's give it a go!”Began consulting in sales, marketing and operations with 1 travel agency franchise30 years later the start-up went global which allowed Michelle to globally experience the world of travel and franchise businessPhone Call #3: Surgical service business wants operations specialist so Michelle said, “Sure! Let's give it a go!”Super-sophisticated business, fell on her face, learned fast,  and made improvements to the company before it was abruptly bought-outNow begins the latest "Tweenior" chapter of creating webinars and learning how to have self-time care and fun18:10 to 22:11     Over-Arching Life Guiding ThemesWhat have been the three over-arching themes that have guided you as you moved from one opportunity to the next to the next ("I don't know but why not give it a go!"). Q: Do you happen to recall what brought you alive as you were taking those chances and what were some of the unexpected insights?  With each new opportunity there is terror and possibilityThere's no right and wrong, there's no win and lose; there's only win and learnExploit the idea, the risk: at the very least I'll learn something and how bad can it get?Perspective: “Give it a go!” is a sense of optimism because rare that you can't re-wind, re-direct, change courseDidn't know her exact career path so it meant that the field was wide open to possibilitiesThe joy of discovery and working without a net; although friends and family are the netWorked with people and helping them do what they needed to do better aligns with her: teach, help, encourage, inspire, do best workWatching the light bulb turn on is a joy! When people get ideas and actions they can own and absorbIt's a matter of magic and imaginationComing to Story and the Process of Helping Others22:11 to 28:05     Authentic Narrative and BusinessI'd like to shift a bit to story, narrative, and how it shows up in the business. You are recognized for helping people at all levels of organizations build their knowledge, skill and capacity to grow their businesses and their careers. Would you share with us how you came to storytelling and how that led you to actively invite story into your speaking and training portfolio.Michelle came to story when she was transferred from Canada to Orange County, California where she joined a band and was singing/song-writingMichelle knew it would be beneficial to balance out the left-brain logical work with fun and encountered the host's storytelling course.Decided to give it a go!Why Michelle stood up that night and told her story was a way to get the party started!Surprised because she didn't expect to learn the power, strategy, and reality of well-crafted stories and where it would fit in livesPowerful concept: "The stories that you tell others about your life are also the stories you tell yourself about your life; choose you words wisely."That is a powerful concept because this informs your own sense of who you are in the worldWhen you tell your stories you can make yourself a hero or the bad guy in the black hatThis idea became the foundation for Michelle learning to tell stories in marketing: seeing how something might be a solution to a uniquely human problemHow? Relate to the story elementsToday story is a key component of marketingLearning how to craft an excellent, compelling, evocative,  emotional connected story gets to the heart of what folks believe and what they believe is how they behave28:05 to 35:33     The Benefits of Authentic StoryBenefits of authentic narrative goes hand-in-glove with conscious marketing instead of story as silver bullet, market to sell. It's the connection that matters. As Dr. Carmel Finnan calls it, “Story Dialogue” which is the telling of the story, the listening to the story and the listening to the responses. There has been a real shift between the ways story was conscripted to behave on the part of business and how it is being recognized today as real, organic, authentic, and relationship-based. Q: What shifts did you see taking place over the decades professionally?Personally experienced what it means to craft story well: executive management involves giving feedback which is not about speaking but asking questions which the host taught as inviting the story out of the teller by well-crafted questionsMichelle relied on her former story experience to coach with generosity in her professional lifeRecalls how host coached her and other tellers to examine the story themselves, to find the right refinements and edits to polish their story to be even more compellingThis methodology of approaching feedback carried on in her career; other professionals modeled Michelle and her skill setThe more you do these skills the better you get at themHost: Sometimes we take things for granted and fail to regard the influence on others with the skill set we bring to the table“Charles in Charge” upbringing takes personal discipline to reverse, to back off, to find the “what” and “how” question  How to offer feedback35:33 to  37:33     Your Own Story Voice     For those of us who are not going to become certified coaches this notion of finding the question that listens the story out of the teller, that's the direction you want to go in.  In this way you are helping someone develop their own story voice. Q: What is your own story voice?     Here we are, at the end of the road but not the journey. Thank you for listening to Part 1 of this episode of Stories From Women Who Walk with your host Diane Wyzga and my guest Michelle Desreux.

Getting aligned with your work and your personality is crucial for finding balance, harmony and happiness while still achieving your goals. Hear insights about: How Michelle got her start in and discovered her love of real estate through a part-time job at the young age of 13 How Michelle’s insider view of the real estate business and entrepreneurialism initially scared her, and how she learned to push through her fears Why Michelle realized that doing things her own way and aligning her work with her introverted personality made a big difference in her success and happiness Why Michelle made big changes to her life and career to pursue her “trifecta” of freedom, fulfillment and financial success through new levels of alignment Why true success comes from loving what you do, and why it is important to avoid the trap of “comparisonitis” How Michelle’s “ABCs of Alignment” (awareness, belief system, clarity) can help you truly understand yourself and what steps to take to become more aligned How neuroscience shows us that we can reprogram our minds even before we truly believe in our decisions How our brains are wired to keep us safe rather than allow us to achieve success, and why overriding our fears and having faith are vital skills to learn Why you have to be “committed” to your decisions rather than merely being “interested” in the outcomes Why staying true to what you find fulfilling and listening to your heart opens new doors to success that you might not have even imagined Getting Aligned Michelle Risi doesn’t fit the mold of what many of us have been led to believe is the “successful real estate agent”. She isn’t an aggressive, extroverted sales master who schmoozes her way toward closing deals. But Michlle was named one of the Top 50 Women in Canadian Real Estate, according to Real Estate Professionals Magazine. She’s a broker/owner, a thriving entrepreneur, thought leader, and CEO of The Aligned Agent Academy where she teaches other real estate agents the power of getting aligned. How has she achieved so much in her career while still staying true to herself? For Michelle, alignment is everything. It’s about aligning your work with your passions and your personality, and finding the right balance that works for you — even if it runs contrary to everything you were taught! Michelle joined me for a powerful conversation in this week’s episode of the Pursuing Freedom podcast, where she shared how achieving alignment starts with the ABCs of Alignment — Awareness, Beliefs, and Clarity. Getting Aligned with the “ABCs of Alignment” Michelle teaches that getting aligned starts with Awareness; understanding yourself, how you’re operating, how you make decisions, and how those decisions do (or don’t!) align with your goals. Once you understand yourself and where you are now, the next step is to look at your Beliefs. Do the things you truly believe resonate with your goals? Or do you listen to the tiny inner voice of self-doubt and fear? What do you believe about ‘success’ and what it looks like? What work can you do to “reprogram” your beliefs and conquer your inner critic that too often holds you back? The last step is Clarity; it’s about creating a clear and uncompromising vision for where you want to go. Your brain needs that clarity as a roadmap to help steer you to the right decisions that will bring you closer to your destination. It takes time, intentionality, dedication and hard work to reprogram your brain and learn to see success through a new lens. But the results are more than worth the effort! You really can have the life you want, if you’re ready to do the work of getting aligned with your dreams.

She is the Broker/Owner of Royal Lepage Connect Realty, a brokerage in Durham and Toronto with 6 locations and approx 300 agents and staff, a published author for Forbes and an active member of the Forbes Real Estate Council.

Michelle Cordeiro Grant is the founder & CEO of LIVELY is a community and brand that inspires women to live passionately and purposefully through experiences and products like bras, bralettes, undies, and so much more. Michelle grew up with immigrant parents, thinking she wanted to become a doctor or a lawyer, but her true passion lay in working with products and building brands. At the end of a long and extremely successful career at brands like Victoria’s Secret, Michelle came to the realization that the $13 billion lingerie category was being dominated by a single brand and had a very narrow point of view.This led her to go out on her own and create LIVELY with the goal of being a brand that strived to reflect real, authentic, everyday women like herself, who craved the feeling of being confident and comfortable. Michelle launched LIVELY in 2016 and has since opened four stores and fostered a network of over 140,000 brand ambassadors. She grew the business from its concept stage to a recent $100 million acquisition in just three years, beating the odds that many female-founded companies face. In this episode, you’ll hear from Michelle as she describes the tactical steps she took to leave her career and build a company that she was passionate about, what it takes to build a brand from concept to acquisition, how she built a community of 140,000 ambassadors, and what it takes to live her mission of creating an inclusive product and brand that speaks to and is inspired by “women with wild hearts and boss minds.” In this episode, we’ll talk to Michelle about:* Learn more about Michelle’s childhood in an immigrant family in rural Pennsylvania.

Things are so revolved around us being told to choose the expression of ourselves in our brand, especially with our color and this conversation is to totally contradict that.”4:05 Michelle’s pre-business life in Hollywood5:22 The two sides to Hollywood, negativity, and believing the voices around us7:46 Why and how Michelle stopped listening to the voices outside herself that were dragging her down and shattering the Glass Dome “I believe we've built a dome around ourselves with other people's thoughts, opinions, and negative statements. You really have to have the bravery to break down that dome and build something from the ground up. It's not going to be easy. It's about having the inner confidence to not care anymore what other people have to say or what their opinion of you is because you not only value yourself but your health too much.”10:20 Working with her hubby and behind the scenes on how they met11:17 How business owners can embrace color and the psychology behind color to help us stand out and be more visible“I think that color is such an important part, if not one of the most important parts of the visual brand.”“Color psychology is a really powerful strategy so that you can attract the right people.”12:52 Returning to her film degree background, and natural medicine, and color frequency“What helped me understand color was having a brand that wasn't working and knowing that I had good things to offer. So it had to be something in the branding or in the marketing strategy.”“We have this delusion that our brand color is about us. It's supposed to be about the ideal client.”14:40 Why Michelle chose blue as her primary brand color and why you may want to as well16:56 The psychology of yellow (the new primary brand color here at Amplify Your Awesome™) and how Yong’s 14-year old created a mood board to reflect the new colors19:31 What’s your perfect color?

Have you ever been able to put a word to the motivations and philosophies that drive your behavior? There are plenty of people out there in the world of business and entrepreneurship that embody preeminence - and in recognizing and embracing the principles behind that word in their everyday lives, these people have the power to sound their impact across the globe.   Michelle Abraham serves as not only the director of the Abraham Group, but also a founding partner and the chief strategy officer of The Four Cups, an operation focused on connecting those without a voice of their own to the resources they need. As part of her expansive and diverse mission in life, Michelle is also a participant in the 1008 challenge, which has her seeking certifications in 1008 endeavors.   On this episode of Preeminence Unleashed, Nic, Jeff and Michelle break down Michelle’s unconventional and eclectic start with the Abraham Group, what operating with preeminence means to the organization and to her, getting to the heart of how actual value is exchanged (within a business and without), and the growing culture of contributing without expectations. Listen in for wisdom from a driving force behind one of the world’s truly legendary names. What You’ll Learn: What building a legacy looks like to people in various positions, and the mindset that shapes each person’s perception of the legacy they want to leave How the organizations that Michelle engages with go about the business of leaving a positive mark on the entire world Why Michelle’s dog is one of her best tools for observing and interpreting people’s behavior And much more! Favorite Quote: “It's the name of your show, it’s preeminence. But it's preeminence in the fact that they realize they're exchanging energy for a result. And then, you know, most everyone that we work with has to have a desire to produce a value that outweighs what they're receiving. And there's building trust and being an advocate for your clients, your industry, creating the standards of which the rest of the industry should adhere to. And that's above and beyond. We preach it, we live it. You know, sometimes we all mess up, and we might miss the mark a little bit. But the essence is not when you mess up, it's what you do when you mess up.”   Michelle Abraham   Horse for Sale: Abraham University How to Get Involved: Nic Peterson and Jeff Moore are endlessly fascinated with the mindsets and practices that make smart, successful people tick - and they work closely with other entrepreneurs, business owners and service providers to put those habits and perspectives into action, making preeminence the cornerstone of every move forward.   You can connect with Nic at nicpeterson.com and masterymode.com, and you can find Jeff on LinkedIn.

Michelle's earliest memories from childhood all relate to money. And yet, the stories and lessons learned from different branches of her family tree couldn't be more dichotomous! Michelle has used the money lessons from her life to rethink how financial advisors and their clients have traditionally worked together. Rather than thinking of her role as a gatekeeper of portfolios, she sees real value in being a gateway to personal financial freedom. To support her clients on their unique wealth journeys, Michelle is a technician of financial planning, investment, and wealth management. But what differentiates Michelle from other financial advisors is that she has spent the last two-plus decades studying the unconventional, non-financial aspects of life satisfaction, financial therapy (it's a thing), behavioral bias, choice, and decision advising. She believes we all need to examine the money stories, scripts, and lessons that affect our financial psychology so that we can rethink what we know about money to have more of it. Michelle lives in Wyckoff, NJ with her husband, Mike and sons, Alex and Nick. She is an avid photographer – her sons are her favorite subject! What you will learn in this episode: How Michelle received what she calls “a familial education in the emotional side of money”, and what lessons she learned growing up with wealthy but spendthrift parents How Michelle had a pivotal moment when her father bought a yacht but told her he couldn't afford to pay for her college education, and what lasting impact this experience had on her life How Michelle experienced a deep sense of “money shame” dealing with the fact that her parents were spendthrifts What key fears people are experiencing related to money, scarcity and emotional health during the pandemic Why our experience of the passage of time is both accelerating and slowing down due to the pandemic and the dramatic life changes we are forced to make to adapt Why Michelle believes that people who are feeling a heightened sense of urgency should consider if things are really that urgent and should instead try to slow things down Why social distancing provides an opportunity to slow things down and truly consider your goals and the next steps you need to take to get there How Michelle recommends parents who are dealing with financial crises speak to their kids about unexpected changes How the global COVID-19 pandemic is creating a generational change moment that will leave permanent lasting changes What “financial therapy” is and how it can help people better understand their emotional and mental connection to money Resources: Website: https://michelleab.com/ LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/michellearpinbeginacfp/ Additional Resources: Website: sharonspano.com Book: thetimemoneybook.com Events: sharonspano.com/workshops Contact: sharon@sharonspano.com Twitter: @SharonSpano

How to Manage What You Cannot SeeWelcome to Toptal’s Rise of Remote podcast series. In just a few short weeks, the shift to remote work catapulted forward 10 years. The pandemic forced companies around the world to suddenly go remote, not out of a desire to experiment with a new way of working, but out of a necessity to keep their businesses afloat.Prior to the pandemic, we sat down for a conversation with Toptal’s VP of People, Michelle Labbe.

We discuss her experience transitioning to a fully distributed organization, how a remote environment can allow for more personal connections within the team, and we deep dive into Toptal’s culture. Michelle says, “at Toptal, your life and your location fit into your work, and not vice versa - your work doesn’t dictate where you live or how you live your life.”Some questions asked:How do you help people think about trust as they move from a traditional to a remote environment?What advice do you offer to companies that are not remote-first but want to help their business implement remote policies?What are the key tenets of Toptal’s culture and how does the culture root the organization into accomplishing the mission?How, in your experience, is coaching and employee development different in a fully distributed model?In this episode, you will learn:Why Michelle made the choice to work remotely and why Toptal.About the tools that can help organizations structure a successful, collaborative, and productive remote environment.How to identify when things aren’t working.How organizations without robust remote programs can get started.Connect with MichelleLinkedInEmail: michelle@toptal.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Paleo f(x)™ is one of the first, biggest, and most successful conferences in the health and wellness space — so, if you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’ve already heard of or been to it. But how much do you know about the Paleo f(x)™ co-founders, Keith and Michelle Norris, and their incredible story? Unfortunately, as is too often the case, this story begins with a tragedy, when their daughter Brittani was killed in a car accident just days before her 23rd birthday. But in that short time, Brittani managed to transform countless lives. And at her memorial service, hundreds of people grieved with Keith and Michelle and shared the profound ways that Brittani had touched their lives.  It was at that moment that Keith and Michelle knew they had to carry on her legacy by giving back and helping others transform their lives for the better. And, seven years after the first Paleo f(x)™ conference, I think it’s clear that they’re off to a great start.  This episode is also a great starting point for anyone who is confused about what Paleo is or has struggled to bring aspects of the ancestral lifestyle into their daily lives. Plus, we get a glimpse at Keith and Michelle’s huge plans for the future and how they plan to change more lives — and the world — for the better.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: The psychotic break that birthed Paleo f(x)™ Why f(x)™? What does that mean? Keith and Michelle are OGs in the Paleo community, first changing their lifestyles in the mid-‘00s Why Michelle started the Paleo diet kicking and screaming — and the incredible transformation that occurred What exactly the Paleo diet and lifestyle are & aren’t The surprising number of similarities between the Paleo diet and a vegetarian diet A model for both environmental sustainability and sustainable human health The problem with Paleo right now What holistic, regenerative farming practices look like How EPIC Bars is changing General Mills, not the other way around Living in a human zoo of our own design The seven pillars of health that you have to focus on if you want to be a fully capable and flourishing human Small steps you can make to become more aware of your body The world of Paleo psychotherapy What we’ve created, as a species, through plant medicine How plant medicine saved their marriage How Paleo f(x)™ hires using Human Design   More about this episode.

Dr. Michelle Boland joins the show today to dive into coach’s education, models, rigid mindsets, movement, and, of course, programming. Right off the bat, Michelle and I get into her background, talk about our mutual grad school experiences, and get a look into why Michelle left collegiate strength and conditioning to join the private world. From there, Michelle and I spend our time talking about education and how ridiculous it is that people keep trying to have “right vs. wrong” conversations. As opposed to thinking critically, learning as much as you can, and asking meaningful questions like “why do the athletes need to do these things?” I will mention that if you are squatting on a physioball, though, then you are wrong. OH SO WRONG. So please stop. To wrap things up, we get into programming for gen pop clients vs. high-level collegiate athletes and share our two cents on our deepest desire for strength and conditioning as a field to please move past Powerlifting as the “gold standard.” All in all, it’s an hour chock full of actionable takeaways, and hopefully, you leave realizing that if you are still straight bar back squatting your athletes, you should stop. Unless your athlete is competing in Powerlifting, of course.

When your job requires you to get right up close and personal to a patient’s mouth, you need to really get on top of your cleanliness game—especially before you graduate and start your career as a hygienist. So, to that end, we’ve brought on three veterans of the dental industry who specialize in keeping the hygienist’s workspace as healthy as possible for patient and professional alike. Emily Boge, RDH, is the dental administrative chair at Hawkeye Community College and a product innovator with American Eagle Instruments. Joy Void-Holmes is also a dental hygienist and serves part-time on the faculty of Fortis College. Michelle Lee is the executive director of the Organization for Safety, Asepsis and Prevention (OSAP), a body that advocates for safe and clean oral healthcare. In this episode, our guests discuss which bad sanitary habits you need to ditch before entering the workforce, explain how you can become certified in infection control, and examine what holds dental offices back from maintaining good sanitation. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: Interview starts: 3:02 - What our guests feel is the most important lessons dental hygiene students learn from the get-go. - Their advice for which bad habits students absolutely need to get rid of and why they need to get on top of their mask game. - Why Michelle believes social media is playing an important role in educating everybody about infection control. - What steps you can take to get yourself certified in infection prevention. - The reason students and newly employed hygienists might be reluctant to speak up about infection control issues, even if they have the proper knowledge. - The importance of fostering a more honest environment in a dental office where people with sanitation concerns can speak up without fear of reprisal. - Why you’ll need to sacrifice some of your personal style if you wish to keep your office free from infection. - What questions you should ask about infection control, and what you should be on the lookout for, when job hunting.   QUOTES: “If you’re working in a high-aerosol environment with a Level One mask, you’re not getting the adequate protection you need.” “This is how we practice safe dentistry in our office, and you need to go through this training.” “Unfortunately sometimes we have to require things for them to get done.” “They think they’re saving money, but what they’re really gonna end up being is sick.” “These folks that are very, very infection control-conscious, they get kind of a bad rap in the office and that makes me sad.” “We’re protecting ourselves and the patient, and no job is worth your safety and security.” “If you want your students to behave a certain way then you have to emulate that behavior.” LINKS: Emily’s email: emily@thinkbigdental.com Joy on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/drjoyrdh/ Joy on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/drjoyrdh/ Joy on Twitter - https://twitter.com/DrJoyRDH Joy’s email: info@drjoyrdh.com    OSAP homepage - https://www.osap.org/ Michelle’s email: mlee@osap.org   Thank you to Paradise Dental Technologies aka PDT for providing sponsorship for this episode!

I am committed to making YOU one of my many success stories! Now just three years ago, she wouldnt have been so positive as life was very different then As she says “Although I worked extremely hard in my career, I still got to the end of the month only to realise I had overspent and could nearly afford to pay my phone bill. I realised I was not equipped with the right mindset to stay motivated and make savvy financial choices, I also needed an education in how to make more money and invest my time and resources wisely. I have transitioned from a job into running my own business thinking that would solve my problems but I still didn't know what steps I needed to take to create the life I really desired. I felt confused and anxious all of the time, the hard work and little results was killing my motivation. And then just over three years ago I had a major breakthrough. I discovered the world of self development and realised that for my whole life I had been studying the wrong thing. I had been working hard at trying to earn more instead trying to be more and think differently. I can now see that all of my financial struggle and mindset battles had a purpose – because now I know the difference between what works and what doesn't when it comes to money, and I'm able to help you. And that is where we will bring her onto the show, by starting todays episode. So does she look back and think “I could have done this earlier” or did she need to go through the pain to be at the right point to make it happen? And where do people go wrong? Is it mindset or talent? Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up dots with the one and only Michelle Stonhill Show Highlights During the show we discussed such weighty topics with Michelle Stonhill such as: Why life is very much about travel today, leading to Michelle revealing how all her decisions are taken to now place her in the position to travel with her business. Michelle shares the three P's of business, and explains why the personal approach to business more often than not overlooked. Michelle shares how she struggles with what she calls “fog in her business”, and needs to separate herself from her work to gain the clarity that she needs. Michelle discusses how she creates two distinct avatars to base her whole business around. One that is the the person starting out and the second where they want to be. and lastly…. Why Michelle reflect on the two male influences in her life as in many ways holding back from the future that is now hers to savour.  

Marketing your interior design business is a business all its own. Social media marketing is essential, but so is marketing in real life, and spreading that all-important word of mouth. So on today’s podcast, we’re talking with someone who knows marketing inside and out, because she was a professional marketer before leaving her corporate job to begin her career in interior design. Darla and Natalie talk with Michelle about how her marketing career informs her interior design business, how brand marketing and direct-response marketing are different, and how she drummed up her first client with a simple marketing trick. In 2016, Michelle transitioned to interior design after spending 15 years as a marketer. Since then she’s worked on countless projects, has been featured in Design*Sponge and Room magazine. She’s also a former Roller Derby jammer, and she has her own podcast called Business Homies where she picks the brains of experts. What You’ll Hear On This Episode of Wingnut Social [2:15] Big news for the podcast [7:25] How Michelle’s marketing background has helped [9:21] Why Michelle turned to interior design [14:40] How Michelle drew from her marketing background [20:55] Why Michelle started a podcast [25:45] Managing social media marketing [28:10] The difference between brand marketing and direct response [36:18] Try not to do too many things [38:15] Whut up, Wingnut?

The marketing tip that helped Michelle get started Michelle spent years in marketing, but as she says she didn’t have a lot of experience with online marketing. However, she knew right away that she needed to put up a blog (even though she didn’t tell family about it) that attracted the type of clients that would want to work with her, and turned away potential clients that would not, in the end, jibe with her personality. That’s a hard lesson to learn for anyone starting out, but Michelle’s years in marketing helped her figure that out from day one. And knowing that, it allowed Michelle to really own her own personality, and not be afraid to be herself and share her true self as part of her business. It’s not always easy to be yourself in business, but if you’re going into business for yourself, it’s truly the only way to make yourself happy, and have an authentic connection with clients. Make Facebook groups work for marketing your interior design business Every interior designer should hear Michelle’s advice for maximizing the potential of Facebook groups. She lives outside of Toronto, and she’s a member of loads of Toronto Facebook groups, and each of those Facebook groups has rules about when you can post to promote your own business. So Michelle made a calendar for all of those Facebook groups, and she would make sure that on those days she’d go on to promote her interior design business. Michelle tailored her posts in Facebook groups to be less promotional, more sharing blog posts, etc. She wasn’t trying to be overly promotional, but she would leave information if someone wanted to schedule a consultation. And the very first time she posted in a group, she landed a consultation. Social media marketing works, people!

Shownotes and links for this episode can be found at http://sarahsantacroce.com/episode57 Marketing is a necessary part of any online business, but the approach is entirely up to you. In fact, if you want to be successful, it is important to find your own marketing voice and design a method that works with your introversion rather than against it. The ‘get known’ method of constant networking and speaking on stages isn’t for everyone, and there are countless other ways to attract clients that don’t involve collecting business cards or making hundreds of phone calls. Thank goodness! After the birth of her third child in 2012, Michelle Evans walked away from a position in global marketing strategy at Microsoft to start her own marketing consultancy. Today, she focuses on helping entrepreneurs go from ‘simply surviving to predictably SOLD OUT’ by way of marketing funnels and Facebook ads. Michelle also serves as the host of the Marketing Funnel Show podcast. On this episode of Introvert Biz Growth, Michelle shares the story of getting involved in the wrong mastermind and trying to fit the mold of the extroverted marketer. She explains how getting back to her roots and building a sales funnel turned her business around—and taught her to trust her gut. Michelle describes her strength in helping clients find their own authentic marketing voice and the tools she uses to streamline client communication. Listen in for Michelle’s insight on carving out the time to work ON your business (before taking care of clients) and learn how to define the marketing voice that works for you! *** Become a VIP of my community Be the first to know whenever I release a new podcast or host a special webinar for introverts.

We got to talk with Michelle Combs, blogger at RubberShoesInHell.com, writer for Huffington Post, Scary Mommy, and others. Michelle’s hilarious and honest approach to the perils of midlife and menopause make her a welcome voice in an often depressing conversation. She talked with us about how she keeps her sense of humor in a time of absurdity. 1:17 What was the origin of “Rubber Shoes in Hell”? Michelle tells the story of needing an outlet for her writing and finding her path via an instant messaged conversation between cubicles. 2:34 How is talking openly about the absurdity of midlife a kind of release? Like many women, Michelle embraced midlife as a time to be more open and genuine about who she really is. She makes a convincing argument for why knowing we’re all going to die can be oddly freeing. 4:04 We hear it all the time from women: build your tribe. Michelle shares her thoughts on the importance of gathering around you people who “get” you and support you, no matter what. 5:45 Tribes don’t always gather in person; online communities can be every bit as powerful and important. Michelle has a robust online tribe at her blog, and tells us about the experience of “hosting” that conversation on Rubber Shoes.   8:26 Menopause is a challenging time, and our culture’s “suck it up, buttercup” approach to it isn’t particularly helpful. We asked Michelle how she manages to honor what women are experiencing while keeping the humor intact. 9:38 Finding her voice: has she? What does it sound like? What does she have left to say, and please o please, will she keep saying it? 11:00 What’s her favorite menopause story? Yeah, Michelle didn’t know she was in menopause until it was over. She tells her story of “battening the hatches” to prepare, as only she can tell it. 14:06 Why Michelle digs the aging process. Except eyebrow hairs. She really doesn’t like wiry eyebrow hairs. 15:06 Michelle gives advice to younger women – advice she admits she herself would have ignored as a 20- or 30-something. It’s perfect.  18:09 Are women supporting each other the way we should? Michelle gives her thoughts on why she’s hopeful about the future. 19:02 What’s next for Michelle? For a woman who doesn’t have plans, she’s got a lot of… plans. Hear how she’s gotten where she is and where she’s going from here. Also, writing books is hard. 21:05 How to find more Michelle: read her blog at Rubber Shoes in Hell, see her do standup at the Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop, check out her articles on Huffington Post.

Michelle Lederman would never say that she can teach you to be likable, even though she’s author of the book, “The 11 Laws of Likability.” But what she would tell you is that there are very specific things that contribute to our take away from your ability to be likable. The more you understand these things - and more importantly, understand yourself for the sake of working on your likability - the more likely it is that you will become a person others feel they can know, LIKE, and trust. I’m glad Michelle agreed to be on the show. She unpacked some of the vague terms we hear these days like authenticity, vulnerability, and more. You’ll enjoy this episode. Your level of likability will dictate your success in business relationships. You’ve probably heard the mantra floating around the business world these days - people need to know, like, and trust you in order to do business with you. My guest on this episode, Michelle Lederman believes that it’s truer than ever because the economy we’re living in is what she calls a “connection” economy. That means we’re making connections with people at a faster rate than ever before, which requires our first and ongoing impression on the people we’re connecting with all the more important. You can hear how Michelle coaches people to increase their likeability in authentic ways, on this episode of Real Relationships. Research shows that happiness comes from relationships and connection. Even in business, happiness comes from having meaningful and productive relationships. It’s a given that you have to establish trust with real people if you’re going to have any hope of success in your professional life. But my guest on this episode, Michelle Lederman told me that research has demonstrated that it’s more than success that is at stake - it’s also happiness. Find out how the relationships you have - even in the business environment - contribute to how happy you are as a person. It’s an amazing concept that shows that relationships are vital to our well-being. An authenticity hack you can apply to your to-do list. When it comes to your to-do list you likely don’t think about it in terms of relationships. But Michelle Lederman insists that if you don’t, you’ll miss one of the most powerful hacks you can do to increase your ability to be authentic. Find out how Michelle hacks her to-do list to make her dreaded meetings and appointments into things she actually enjoys and looks forward to. It’s one of the ways that authenticity can be made practical and beneficial for your work and home life. If you don’t believe in yourself, nobody else will either. Confidence matters. When it comes to being likable, Michelle Lederman says there are three “C”s that really matter. Clarity, confidence, and connection. Out of the three, she says that confidence is one of the most important simply because none of us like being around people who ooze insecurity. In the business world it’s even more important because nobody wants to do business with someone who is unsure of themselves or their company’s ability to come through on an agreement. You can hear how Michelle advises her clients to increase their personal confidence and thereby become a person who can be trusted, on this episode of Real Relationships.
