Becoming the Leader of Your Business - with Janic Gorayeb

Just because you may be a small business owner, it doesn't mean that you need to play small. In fact, if you own and run a business (regardless of its size) you're the boss, the big cheese, the head honcho! But do you consider yourself a leader?

In today's episode, I am joined with a leader in her own right (and business), Janic Gorayeb. Janic is the founder of Ripple Effect Leadership. She helps entrepreneurs and organizations create collaborative and kick-ass teams so they can rock their purpose and grow their business from the inside out

She started Ripple Effect Leadership because many times during her career , she didn’t feel like a leader because she didn’t have a “traditional leadership title”. Can you relate? She now helps others shift their mindset about their leadership abilities for their business and teams.

Lessons from Ted Lasso for the Small Business Owner

It's no secret - I love Ted Lasso and am still hurting that the series has come to an end. It's a beautiful thing when a piece of pop culture can leave a lasting impression on you, and that is exactly what Ted Lasso did for me.

In this episode, I am sharing five quotes from the show that resonate when it comes to building and growing a small business. I hope that these quotes offers a lesson of encouragement, even when you're feeling down or struggling.

My top favourite quotes are:

"Taking a challenge is a lot like riding a horse. If you're comfortable while you're doing it, you're probably doing it wrong."

"Be curious, not judgemental."

"It's funny to think of all the things in one's life that can happen just 'cause a fella's shoelace came undine."

"Success is not about the wins and losses. It's about helping these young fellas be the best versions of themselves, on and off the field."

And my personal favourite...

"You know what the happiest animal on earth is? It's a goldfish. You know why? Got a 10-second memory. Be a goldfish, Sam."

What's your favourite show that has taught you lessons in humility, grace, gratitude and forgiveness? Ted Lass is a tough one to beat!

Digital Marketing Roadmap: Are Master Resell Rights (MRR)Worth the Hype?

In this episode, I discuss a digital marketing roadmap that has been gaining attention lately. And it all comes down to the concept if Master Resell rights (MRR). What are master resell rights? MRR is an opportunity that allows you to purchase a digital program (a course, ebook, digital file etc) and have a license to sell it to your own audience and keep 100% of the profits.

However, I have some reservations about this opportunity. I share my skepticism about the over-saturation of the program, lack of control over the product, and the potential impact on building a personal brand. I encourage viewers to do their own research and trust their instincts before making any decisions and investing in MRR.

Give Yourself Permission - From Social Media Breaks to Starting a Passion Project

In this episode, I am delving into a topic close to every entrepreneur's heart: giving yourself permission. Perhaps it's taking breaks from social media (it was for me) or embarking on new passion projects. We often get wrapped up in the overwhelm of social media and sometimes need to give ourselves the permission to pivot.

Here are a few things to remember:

1. The Significance of Taking Breaks from Social Media

Social media is a powerful tool, but it's equally important to disconnect and recharge. Sometimes, by stepping away from the virtual world, we allow ourselves to regain focus and clarity.

2. Exploring New Passion Projects: Igniting Confidence

Venturing into a new passion project can be intimidating, but it's a journey that often leads to building confidence. I think that it is important to allow yourself to explore creative avenues beyond your main business.

3. Empowerment Through Permission: Boosting Confidence

Giving yourself permission is a catalyst for nurturing self-assurance in your small business decisions and can really help you boost your own confidence.
