Brook McCarthy started her first business in 2007 and now describes herself as "happily unemployable"
Her business Hustle and Heart equips and empowers business owners to build highly creative, ethical, and mutually-flourishing businesses that become a model for others to emulate.
Brook loves talking to women in business about money and demystifying money and sales. She believes how much you earn is a feminist issue and she's keen to change the stats!
In this episode she tells us: "anger is my superpower" and then puts this into context as she gives us examples of how "I get a fire in my belly and that gives me the power to make changes"
Brook talks about boundary setting and energy vampires and how helps women charge premium price for their valuable service and much more

Salle Huber is a movement teacher with more than 15 years experienced. She is trained and fully certified in Stott Pilates as well as The MELT Method, which is a simple and innovative self-care treatment for our connective-tissue system.
In May 2021 Salle started her own business after deciding that she could no longer work for anyone else.
She says "No-one believed in what I was doing (with my clients) as much as I did and so I decided that I would create my own studio where I could provide a highly personal service for people with a variety of abilities"
If you've listened to other episodes you know I ask "What would you do differently?" and Salle's immediate response was "I was I'd started much sooner"
This is such a common response from business owners - wishing they had started sooner
If you are thinking of starting your own business, this podcast is a terrific resource with stories from a variety of business owners - mostly personal service businesses

In this episode we meet Cheryl Burgess.
Cheryl and her husband Adrian now run a multi business operation. This is a business started in 2012 when they wanted to buy a Pilates reformer for personal use at home.
Finding a supplier overseas was easy EXCEPT! instead of buying 1 reformer - the minimum order was for 10 reformers !!
And that’s how it started. They pre sold the other 9 Pilates reformers before they even arrived in Sydney.
The first growth step was to include commercial use Pilates equipment – something they wish they had moved into earlier than they did!
Haven’t we heard this in previous episodes “We wish we’d jumped in sooner/ earlier… trusted that we were on the right track”
They now run a multi business operation, with a large team of people – including family members and locals - and are deeply steeped in the industry and they truly understand what their customers need – from lived experience
This episode is not really about Pilates - although super helpful if you are interested in Pilates or other fitness or allied health
This episode showcases what happens in business “you stay in your lane” as Cheryl says
The integrated businesses work together to support their chosen industry

What happens when a hair stylist says "Enough! of this"
... and decides to become a Feng Shui consultant?
That’s exactly what Candice Berlanger did and for a whole lot of reasons – start8ing with more freedom and flexibility to spend more time with her family
Feng Shui is often thought of as the art of placement, where we put things in the house or the office
The REAL practice of Feng Shui is one of the oldest in the world and has a fascinating history!
Candice gives a little of the Feng Shui history and background as she takes us through her journey from hair stylist to Feng Shui consultant
We answer all the regular startup questions in this conversation and Candice dishes out some solid wisdom for anyone thinking about getting started:
"It takes longer than you think it will" AND “just start with what you’ve got at the time”
I love this!

Buy The Book: So You Want to Start a Business
This book Business 101 and can answer pretty much all your business questions. It is your step by step guide to build your viable and robust business - smarter and faster.
“So You Want to Start a Business” where ever you buy your books - from independent bookseller or online
Dr Artika Tyner is an amazing woman, a human rights lawyer, book publisher and book store owner! Planting People Growing Justice
She lives by the credo: When you see a problem, find a solution.
She tells us that she realised that "a reader is more likely to find a black dog on the cover of a book than a black person" and set about to find a solution. She started publishing books
Her first book stores were pop-ups - at festivals and markets, offering the early books she published.
In 2017 Planting People Growing Justice was named as small business champion which was extremely fortuitous as this gave them access to business training and a mentor.
She says having this mentor as well as others has been indispensable to their success. And successful they indeed are.
She talks honestly about in the beginning she dreamt of "buying a building for her book store" and then didn't have step 2 ... no pricing plan, no overall strategy for financial viability - which is why the mentors were so important.
Dr Artika realised "I had to reconcile in my mind: this is a business, this is not a hobby. For this to last for the generations to come meant that we had to have a very sound strategy in place from the outset!"
She tells us some pretty disturbing data from the US:
"1 in 4 children are not reading at grade level by 4th grade
If you're not reading at grade level by 4th grade you are 4 times more likely to drop out of school
And if you drop out of school you are 3 and half times more likely to enter into the tangled web of incarceration and be arrested
Planting People Growing Justice is NOT just about selling books alone it’s about increasing literacy and engagement"
Dr Artika is truly on a mission and when you listen to this conversation I believe you will be as inspired and uplifted as she is to bring about change in real time.
In recognition of her leadership and service, she is the recipient of more than two dozen awards that include: Women in Business, American Small Business Champion, International Educator Citizen, and American Bar Association Difference Makers.
She has been featured in a variety of media outlets.
She is a prolific, award-winning author of adult and children’s books that includes: Amazing Africa: A to Z and The Inclusive Leader: Taking Intentional Action for Justice and Equity.
She serves as a global citizen by supporting education, entrepreneurship, and women’s leadership initiatives in Africa. In furtherance of her philanthropic efforts, she created Planting People Growing Justice Leadership Institute, a nonprofit organization committed to promoting literacy and diversity in books.

Hello and welcome to Episode 177
Recently I found myself saying to a friend "I feel like I've lost my voice"
I hadn't written a newsletter in a while and there was a gap in my podcast episodes and I was mostly off social media .... I told my friend "I don't know what to say"
She said: "We procrastinate as a response to fear - we develop the habit of procrastinating to protect ourselves"
Wow!! That was a lightbulb moment
I hadn't realised that this is procrastination!!
What am I frightened of?
In this solo and very personal episode I share with you how I dealt with it - and it is NOT about having more willpower
We are in business - we have tons of willpower
This calls for something much deeper - and totally different
In this short (less than 15 minute) episode I walk you through the steps I took
Am I completely "cured" ... time will tell
I'm guessing it could happen again AND next time I'll be ready!!
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode

Like many business owners Angela Ficken reached a point where she was burning the candle at both ends. She took the plunge to start private practice … and thought she would “hang out her shingle” and that’s all she needed to do.
It didn’t work out that way and in this episode Angela tells us how she overcame the “hustle of being in business which is a constant grind”
She says that she learned very fast that: “Your pay check is as much as you hustle”
Angela has built her business Progress Welness into a worldwide brand. She offers online products that take her expertise out into the world for a wide range of clients. She tells us that creating the brand allowed the creativity side of her personality.
In this episode Angela walks us through the process she used to build her brand and the entire suit of online products – so helpful for every business person.
Angela Ficken, LICSW is a full-time psychotherapist in private practice. She specializes in OCD, eating disorders, and anxiety-related concerns.
She started her career at McLean Hospital, which is one of the top-ranking psychiatric hospitals in the country and affiliated with Harvard University. She was the head social worker on an inpatient unit that focuses on anxiety and depression.
During her time at McLean, she trained in exposure therapy and became certified in CBT and DBT. Shortly thereafter, she worked at Harvard University as a primary therapist for undergraduate and graduate students.
During her time there, she taught students CBT and DBT skills to help them manage a range of challenging emotions that young adults face daily.
Angela has focused her attention on working with young adults and entrepreneurs primarily after noticing that both groups struggled with anxiety disorders and stress-related issues due to life transitions and the uncertainty of what was coming next in their lives. The struggle, as they say, is "real".
She has spent years fine-tuning her practice and building her business into something more than a standard full-time private practice.
In this conversation she tells us how she has achieved this - with practical and actionable steps we can all implement.
She began writing for Huffington Post as an expert, which then catapulted her into writing for other major online sources which include Marriage.com where she is a verified expert, YourTango.com, ThriveGlobal.com, and has been quoted in Oprah Magazine, and on Fastcompany.com, Inc.com, Forbes.com, MSN.com, Bustle.com, Popsugar.com, Buzzfeed.com, Nylon magazine, Getstigma.com, and Justluxe.com. She has also been a guest on Onward Nation with Stephen Woessner where she talked about OCD and intrusive thoughts, as well as on the radio in Chicago and Reno speaking about stress and anxiety.
Through her writing and hearing from her clients how difficult it was finding an understanding therapist—one who could actually teach coping strategies to manage difficult emotions—she decided to create the Worried to Well-Balanced: Practical Skills to Deal With Everyday Stressors: Worried to Well-balanced course to reach more people other than those she could meet within her office.
The course is designed to help those who have significant stress in their lives and struggle to find ways of coping and managing their emotions.

Stacey Hylen is my guest today in this short Stand out episode because what she has to say about how to overcome the pricing barrier earns its own episode!
Stacey started her first business when she was in third grade and then started an even more successful business when she was 11 years old.
She describes herself as a “natural optimiser” and you can listen to her talking about this if you scroll back to episode 171.
Stacey says: "In business the pricing barrier is not usually between ourselves and a client or customer – the pricing barrier is usually between our ears …" all about mindset
She gives us a terrific pricing example from her own business and also a general example of resources vs resourcefulness - and especially when it comes to mindset and profit.
In this Standout she mentions her "Raise your Rates Masterclass" and you can register for the next one here:

My guest today is Keli Spanier and more than 12 years ago she started making funny and creative cards – for a whole bunch of reasons
In this episode she tells us all about how she has grown Colette Paperie from those first cards into a global company
As Keli says: "After spending several years at a corporate job I began Colette Paperie in 2009 to solve two problems: lose the soul-sucking job, and create funny cards."
It became her goal to revive snail mail in a way that made it impossible to resist - by creating cards that you simply have to send.
Her cards are located in over 500 stores worldwide after a decade of hard work, dedication + grit to making this thing work and she tells us the highs and the lows in this episode.
Her cards are in floral shops, boutiques, museum shops, salons, and even restaurants.
The best feature of the cards (aside from their irreverent sayings) is the brightly covered envelope sure to stand out in anyone's mailbox.
Keli does it all herself: draws, prints, cuts, folds + packages all of her cards, stickers, notepads + keychains all in her Cincinnati studio. Keli says "It's pretty ridiculous."
Personally I think it is amazing! as is she!
I love cards and I think you will love Keli's cards and really find this episode extremely enlightening about how to take a create pursuit and enjoy a viable business.

Stacey Hylen is my guest today and she started her first business when she was in third grade and then an even more successful business when she was 11 years old.
Stacey says: "Many people feel they are getting paid well, just not enough to reflect their brilliance at what they do and the kind of results and support they create for their clients. I help people Raise their Rates"
In this conversation she talks about how she works with clients to help them Raise their Rates.
She describes herself as a “natural optimiser” and all the way through our conversation you can hear how she optimises!!
No matter what business you are in – Stacey has a message for you.
She started her business when she and her husband moved to Quebec in Canada from the US.
Her husband used to joke that "If it doesn't work out you could always go work at the local hot dog stand" and Stacey says "There is NO WAY that was going to happen"
So she made it work. How often are we inspired to make something work because some one tells us it won't work!!
The French expression she used is “Casse-croûte literally translates to 'break-crust' but it's really a snack.”
Stacey has a recently released book "Hidden Profit: more clients & cash" and she mentioned her "Raise your Rates Masterclass" and you can register for the next one here:

Suzanne is a mindset coach for music-preneurs and creatives and she says it is time to #RedesigntheHustle!
Combining her 18+ years in the music industry with a Master's in Psychology she now helps creatives reach their goals.
This is more than time management solutions – this is growth mindset meets getting clarity on the next steps.
There’s a reason the business is Rock/ Star
The solidity with grounding like a rock while reaching for the stars!
Suzanne says “Things will always get messy, and that’s OK. Get through the mess!”
She says she wishes she had realised earlier that “Anything is monetizable” and she explains how not knowing this held her back in the early days.
Suzanne gives us practical ways to bootstrap – the various ways she had to in the first 3-4 years.
She talks about the importance of not just understanding the difference between charging by the hour and the value created for her clients. It was when she absolutely believed in the value she creates she was able to “take the steps and not get in my own way” – this was thanks to the support of a money mindset coach.
Suzanne believes that everything comes back to mindset and how we think and what we believe.
There is so much to love about this episode and conversation with Suzanne.

Destini Copp says "You may feel like no-one is watching, no-one is seeing what you are doing. Keep on going, keep moving forward. People are watching. People are seeing what you are doing. You are building your future. Believe in what you are doing and keep going."
When Destini started her business, she started big and was looking to scale and grow quickly. Then she cycled around and went to work 1:1 with clients - and she wishes she had done this earlier.
So many business owners want to "go big and grow fast"
Destini talks to us about how important the 1:1 work is in building the foundations.
She talks about pricing and the process she has used to reach the pricing models she has today.
Dr Destini Copp is a college marketing professor turned online entrepreneur.
This is a rich conversation with a smart business woman with years of experience across a number of different industries.

Brooke Lively says that she came to realise that most business owners are a little intimidated by their numbers, they don’t know what they're saying and they don’t know how to use them.

That's why my business is here - to help small companies become more profitable"
Brooke Lively is Founder of Cathedral Capital which serves as bookkeeper, accountant, fractional CFO to (mostly) law firms
No matter what your business, Brooke has help for you in this episode.

Allison Jackson Fitness originally started out as FitMomsofNJ.com in 2010 when she began to realize how many of her mom-friends were either struggling to lose weight, looking for ways to incorporate exercise into their busy lives or trying to figure out how to prioritize their health while caring for their family.
Fitness is absolutely her passion. When she was in her teens, she used to read her Dad’s Muscle & Fitness magazines and attempt to lift weights and work out in their unfinished basement with a weight bench and some dumbbells.
Her mom took Allison to Jazzercise classes with her. She struggled with her weight, but it was during those early years that she caught the fitness bug.
Re: starting your own business:
"Trust in yourself and rip off the band aid. You’ll be surprised just how successful you can be"
Some of my personal highlights from this conversation:
Allison felt like the business was real when locals started saying to her "I know you, you're Allison Jackson Fitness - I've been watching your videos"
She talks about how important it is to find the right business coach. "The right business coach is going to fast track you and get you through the rough points"
She says "No matter what your goal there is a coach who can help you – go find them"
Allison explains how she went from her early days where she gave sessions to family "for free" to charging what she is worth – she has 3 different ways she reached a dollar amount:
Allison believes in 3 pillars - fun, authenticity and healthy
This conversation is all 3 of these and much more

Rebekah Campbell is a serial entrepreneur who has played a lead role in the disruption of two industries.
She's best known as the Co-Founder of Hey You, Australia's number 1 order ahead platform used by 900 000+ Aussies in cafes and quick service restaurants (QSR)
Hey You grew out of the combination of Rebekah's Posse.com and another business called Beat the Q.
She tells the story of how the 2 officially became 1 company in 2015.
Hey You is evolving the way that people order and pay at cafes and QSR.
Posse.com was founded in 2013 and was a social search engine that helped people find and recommend their favourite places and interact with storeowners. Posse at the time was used by 45,000 merchants worldwide and is backed by leaders from Google, Facebook, Twitter and E-Bay.
Prior to Posse.com Rebekah founded Scorpio Music, one of Australia's most successful music companies. Scorpio developed the careers of Evermore, George, Lisa Mitchell, Matt Corby and many others.
Rebekah also talks about writing her book - and why this was so important to her. She says "When I was writing, I just thought about one person and if I could help that one person to have the change that I have had in my life, it was worthwhile."
Sounds familiar doesn't it? When thinking about our ideal client - think of that 1 person.

Katie Chonacas is a multi disciplinary artist who utilises her voice to inspire change and transformation in people who want to make an impact on the world
Katie Chonacas is the first NFT artist to release a poem on love on blockchain. "A Lover’s Fairytale" was released on World Poetry Day and is available on Amazon.
Katie Chonacas writes for Huff Post.
Katie has appeared in many TV shows and films including Law & Order: SVU, Cols Case, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, CSI: NY.
She has a popular podcast: She’s All over the Place
When I asked Katie why she wanted to be a guest on the show she said:
"Educating and sharing over two decades of experience in entertainment and business.
How I got started, key facts and gems, books, mentors, mentality, sharing, communicating, having a team, not doing it all alone.
Being open to the unknown & the unexpected, having a blueprint to guide but allowing space so the ego and control do not ruin the vision, the hope, the dream.
Mindfulness, what, who and what we are listening to, noise pollution.
The importance of culture, travel, listening, and how to take massive action every single day. Here's to a great start. :) Thank you!"
I knew this would be a memorable conversation - and it is!

Money scares many people. But it doesn’t scare Ean Price Murphy.
She doesn’t want business owners to have to worry about their “crazy” finances anymore!
People who are nervous or confused about money work with Ean to become confident, comfortable and knowledgeable around money.
She wasn’t born a bookkeeper. She learned it slowly.
Ean graduated with a Liberal Arts degree, so it wasn’t until her 20s that she started becoming educated about money. She says: “After all, it’s just another language, and with a little guidance, you’ll be fluent”
Can runs Moxie Bookkeeping and is a Profit First professional.
If you’re wondering what is profit first then listen in.
Ean describes profit first as “a way of handling your business income in order to make sure you’re actually earning a good living from your business or freelance work. And if you’re not there yet, it is a really impactful way of working your way towards that good living in the most effective way.”
