Passionate & Prosperous with Stacey Brass-Russell

It's time to cozy up with a cup of your favorite holiday tea (mine is chocolate mint!) because I’ve got an episode of PASSIONATE & PROSPEROUS that's perfect for this time of year!And you know how I know? Because it’s one of YOUR favorite episodes! For the last few weeks of 2023, I decided to highlight some of our “most listened to” episodes - the ones that you emailed me about, commented on and basically told me you loved.For those of us listening in real-time (and in the throes of the Holiday Season), there may be a lot coming up for you around this time of year when it comes to setting limits and creating containers (with your inner circle of loved ones, friendships, social lives, client relationships, colleagues and even YOURSELVES). In “The Secret To Setting Boundaries (And What They’re For!)” Stacey talks to us about the timely topic of managing your experience of life and business by taking control of your time and energy. Although the Holidays are a particularly relevant moment to delve into this thought-provoking subject, no matter when you hear this, Stacey fervently believes boundaries are the overall essential to managing your life. Settle in as Stacey tells us the importance these frontiers hold to help us make empowering, proactive choices and create the success you want in every aspect of your P &P Life and Business (because how we do one thing, is how we do everything!)Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups, and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

I am so excited to have a special guest today, my friend – Nicole Crone.  Nicole is a co-active coach and trained NLP practitioner. She runs a successful coaching business and hosts a podcast called My Aligned Purpose with her partner Kaila Pilecki that provides coaching and education for female entrepreneurs who desire connection, collaboration, and community. We are so aligned in the work that we do that I simply couldn’t wait to bring Nicole on the show so that we could have a juicy conversation about our shared soulful approach to doing biz in a way that combines a balance of strategy, systems, mindset, spirituality and a healthy dose of fun.Follow Nicole on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/myalignedpurposeOr visit her website:https://www.myalignedpurpose.comGet Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups, and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

If you’re a solopreneur out there on your own, struggling to create clients and feeling the temptation to ask everyone and their mother what to do to get your business going then listen in because this episode is going to be a game changer for you. I am here to tell you that throwing out questions about how to find clients and run your business to a smattering of random people in a Facebook group  (even if they are all your peers!) is probably not the BEST idea you ever had. In “Where & How To Ask Questions When You Need Biz Help” we’re taking a look at what happens when you encounter a moment of “not knowing” in your biz (especially not knowing how to attract clients) and what the best course of action is in order to get the most helpful and useful answers to your questions so that you can go out there and take the best action for you in your Passionate & Prosperous business.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

One thing I know for a fact about business is that the path to success in your meaningful work is not linear. It ebbs and flows, has its ups and downs and behaves like the living, breathing organism that it is --which frankly doesn’t always feel so good! If you are a heart-centered business owner, coach, or teacher struggling with the feeling that the strategies you have used in the past for client attraction are no longer working, that you’re in a bubble all alone or that your business is going under, then listen in to this transformative “reframing” episode right away! I am here to tell you that all is not lost, you are not a failure, and you should most definitely not quit or shut down your business! In “What To Do When It Feels Like Nothing Is Working Anymore” I’m here to help you keep on keeping on when you are faced with a slow down or lull in creating new clients and feel like you are losing momentum in your Biz.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

If you are a coach, wellness professional or creative who feels like you are shying away from being visible and fading into the background for fear of being vocal about yourself and the amazing work that you do, then this episode is for you! I am coming on the show to remind you why it’s a non-negotiable for your growth and the evolution of your P&P Biz to be able to say how awesome you truly are and teach you how to take the actions needed to market yourself in a way that makes a distinction between you and the other people who do the same thing as you. Settle in for a game-changing episode where I reveal my 3 major ways to transform your messaging, promote yourself with the right kind of words, and attract the people that are meant to work with you -- without making you feel uncomfortable, braggy or like you are sounding sales-y.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups, and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

If there’s one thing I know, it’s that heart-centered, service-based coaches, creatives and entrepreneurs struggle with sales conversations and selling their services.  You might even think that client attraction is your #1 biggest problem but I’m here to tell you that you only need to talk to one single person to create a client.  And yet, if you’ve got “issues” when it comes to offering and selling your services, that could be the very thing getting in the way of you making money doing what you love!  It's time to settle in for some real talk about the hot topic of sales as I uncover an empowering new perspective on your relationship to sales and money (making it and spending it!) that will allow you to have conversations, make offers, be visible, and tell people what’s available to them while still feeling like a heart-centered business owner running a human-centric Biz.Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast

If there’s one thing I talk about a lot on this show it’s that being human is not easy. Join me for a special episode where we take a look at the conundrum we face when it comes to the fact that our nervous systems were not designed to take in all of the suffering of the world and yet, we try. In “When Life Is Hard, What Can We Do About It?” we’re exploring what I call the “simultaneousness” of things and how it’s okay (and necessary) to find resilience, forward momentum and even happiness in the most challenging times.  Get Full Show Notes, Event Sign Ups and More Information Here:http://www.staceybrassrussell.com/podcast
