Welcome to this week's episode of the Ambitious Introvert. Something I’ve learnt in my own personal development and self discovery journey is that there are so many different ways that we can understand ourselves. The more awareness and understanding that we heave helps us to better understand ourselves and give ourselves permission to be exactly who we are. With this said, I am a big fan and proponent of using numerology in life and business. So when I came across Jo Soley, owner of Bizology, I knew that I had to have her on the podcast. Today she’ll be sharing more about the practice and doing a live reading of my own numbers, enjoy!Jo and I discuss:How learning numerology helped Jo understand herself better and ignite her passion to help others A live session of my numerology reading and how I’m living in alignmentThe history of numerology and how it can show us who we are on a deeper levelHaving the confidence to own your woo, especially with those who don’t understandThe non-monetary results and changes Jo’s clients have seenVisit this episode's blog post here: https://emmalouiseparkes.com/numerology-for-business-success-with-jo-soley Connect with Emma-Louise on Instagram: @emmalouparkesConnect with Jo on Instagram: @josoleybizologyCONNECT WITH EMMA-LOUISE:Website: https://theambitiousintrovert.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emmalouparkes/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/emmalouparkesSign up to receive my monthly Introverts Only digest, delivering all the best introvert-friendly resources straight to your inbox, minus the scroll here.PREMIUM SUPPORT: Interested in working with me 1:1?

Welcome to this solo episode of the Ambitious Introvert. Back in April I interviewed Gemma Went for the podcast - I had just signed up for Gemma's Conscious Consultant Certification. So today, I’m taking this opportunity to give you an insight really into what the last six months has been like for me on that journey, what I have learned from it, why I decided to do it, how it's changed my business, and whether it's something that I would recommend to people or not. You know I like to be transparent about what my investments are and whether they have been of good value or not, so let’s dive in.

On this week's episode of the podcast, I’m chatting to another epically successful ambitious introvert, Sabrina Philipp. Sabrina is one of the people that comes to mind when I think about what it means to have a ‘bulletproof mindset’ - and you’ll see why after hearing this conversation. Sabrina is sharing how owning her introversion has led to success, the importance of separating yourself from your business, and why balance is the key. Sabrina and I discuss:How separating yourself from your business and social media can help youWhy you have to spend time and effort with your team members to gain successWhen Sabrina decided to become a coach and how she scaled to six figuresBeing proactive in taking care of yourself and focusing on your zone of geniusThe reminder that you’re completely in control of your lifeThe common thread that Sabrina sees in your most successful clientsVisit this episode's blog post here: https://emmalouiseparkes.com/creating-balance-as-a-7-figure-introvert-with-sabrina-philipp/ Connect with Emma-Louise on Instagram: @emmalouparkesConnect with Sabrina on Instagram: @sabrinaphilippCONNECT WITH EMMA-LOUISE:Website: https://theambitiousintrovert.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emmalouparkes/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/emmalouparkesSign up to receive my monthly Introverts Only digest, delivering all the best introvert-friendly resources straight to your inbox, minus the scroll here.PREMIUM SUPPORT: Interested in working with me 1:1?

Today I’m going to talk less about business and more about the nervous system. Back in 2012 I was diagnosed with an auto-immune response to many different foods, so I began to look into different practices to help balance my nervous system. A friend mentioned that I should share a bit about this since many people don’t realise these tools exist - physical and mental things that you can use to improve your daily life, and entrepreneurship in general. I hope they help you as much as they’ve helped me!
