Woman of Influence

Happy 2018! To start off the year, I wanted to touch base directly with you all 1:1. This week, it’s just me behind the mic - and I’m crazy excited to share one of my biggest secrets to growing your business as we all begin jotting down goals for the fresh year. And guess what? It doesn’t involve taking on more or saying yes to a billion things - quite the opposite actually Yep! This episode is all about how to say NO to gain more. I’m spilling my strategy on how to clear your calendar to gain results therefore growth in your business. How to pinpoint what’s actually moving the needle in terms of brand growth - and what’s simply due to FOMO or industry pressure. How to assess your current systems and build new ones - all surrounded by doing less. For real this time! 
From taking complete ownership of your precious time, you’ll be amazed at where it can leave you growth wise. Not to mention, what a better friend, mother, wife, daughter - whatever! - you can be. In 2018, I dare you to take back your life and stop being a slave to your calendar. Ready? First order of business - listening to this week’s episode!

Today’s guest is a personal friend of mine and one of the most genuine people I’ve ever had the honor of knowing. I’m beyond excited to have Sheridan Gregory (@sheridangregory) from SheridanGregory.com on the podcast today!  From motherhood moments to video tutorials that make you fall a little bit in love with the girl, Sheridan brings personality and light to her content - no matter the medium. And today, she’s unloading honest answers when it comes to algorithm changes, where she sees the industry going, and how to balance it all. I love her raw approach to keeping things real in the name of engaging content, and how she truly believes there is space for all in the influencer world - and how to stand out. Because I couldn’t agree more! Sheridan’s ‘take-action’ items and advice: Algorithms are out of our hands and will be forever changing. Instead of butting heads in frustration, accept what you're in control of and learn to engage with your amazing community. Since the market is saturated, it’s important to show your unique self so that people can connect and feel invested in your life. Don’t be afraid to show the authentic you! Consider exploring video content as a goal for 2018.   For show notes and additional information head over to www.theinfluencerpodcast.com Did you like this episode and want more of them?

On today’s very special bonus Christmas episode, I’m taking the mic solo to talk about something I’m not only thrilled to suggest, but even more excited to execute throughout the rest of the year (and hopefully beyond!).   That, my friends, is the gift of presence. Underneath the self-inflicted pressure to buy the perfect gift or spend a certain dollar amount, something much more meaningful is giving those around you your full attention. We’re talking face-to-face, in-the-moment, heart-filling, not-distracted connections! Which is so necessary in our tech-driven culture where nose down in a device is the norm. This season, and especially this weekend, close your devices and open your heart to something much more important - the people you love. This quick and heartful episode explores exactly how to do this, and the magic that can happen when you succeed. I hope you enjoy the message and that it leaves a positive outcome for the rest of 2017! Happy holidays, everyone, and thanks for listening!
