The Self-Employed Life

As I like to say, you can't stop a moving train. In business, I have often seen people try to fight off technology transformation…to no avail. This resistance can be a detriment to small businesses, but I get it – change can be hard, and feelings of being left behind or finding yourself suddenly irrelevant are understandably fear-inducing. Yet, change is inevitable…which is why Steve Prentice joins us in this episode today. In this illuminating conversation, Steve and I talk about managing technological change, a topic I believe is truly essential to small businesses and self-employed entrepreneurs. We discuss technological transformation, its impact on the future of work and how it can help (or hinder) our feeling 'in control,' as well as managing fear and accepting change. Steve Prentice is a specialist in organizational psychology, focusing on the junction where people and technology interact. He helps people and organizations understand each other, the technologies they use, and the changes that these present. He is a speaker, writer, journalist, and university lecturer who focuses on human acceptance of cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, blockchain and the future of work. His fourth book is entitled The Future of Workplace Fear – How Human Reflex Stands in the Way of Digital Transformation (Apress, May 9, 2022) and it focuses on this one key fact: humans are driven by fear, and its roots are much deeper than they appear — anyone who seeks to deploy digital transformation successfully must understand this.

What do we tend to center our business goals around? Revenue, right? In this episode, find out why that might not be the best idea…and what to do differently. As my guest, Eleanor Beaton, says, "the hunt for immediate revenue can hold us back from making long-term decisions that actually create sustainable, long-term wealth." In this fascinating conversation, Eleanor and I talk about the need for long-term thinking, the downsides of constant urgency, and the power of building a business ecosystem. Through building an ecosystem of scalable processes, revenue-generation can simply become a natural by-product of the ecosystem you've built. Eleanor Beaton is the founder of SafiMedia, an education & coaching company for women entrepreneurs. SafiMedia is committed to advancing global gender equity one woman-owned business at a time. Together with her colleagues, Eleanor is on a mission is to double the number of women entrepreneurs who scale past $1M in revenue by 2030. Eleanor hosts the Power + Presence + Position podcast, a top-ranked podcast for female founders with over 1.7 million downloads to date.

Saving for your later years is the ultimate in making sure your hard work pays off. Yet oftentimes, the personal traits that make us great entrepreneurs are also traits which can make it difficult for us to save for retirement. In today's conversation with guest Tara Nolan, we discuss retirement for the self-employed — perhaps not the sexiest of topics, but highly necessary! In this hopeful and judgement-free conversation, Tara and I talk about how we, as self-employed entrepreneurs, need to think about retirement and how to plan for it. We discuss topics including the importance of articulating your goals, having a vision vs. executing on that vision, managing shame about money management, and working with money management professionals. Tara also walks us through her 3-Step financial planning framework. As Tara says, "Where your money lives is more important than how much you have." Tara Nolan is a money strategist who supports women entrepreneurs and professionals (who have limited time due to business and family demands!) achieve and retain the lifestyles they want. Since starting her company, she has been obsessed with helping people feel good about their finances. Tara combines finance, her background in strategic military planning, and a focus personal development to create transformational financial plans. She shares her philosophy and approach to money in her book, Money Moves: Change Where Your Money Lives, Change How Your Financial World Grows.

What does it mean to be truly fulfilled? And how does that differ from being happy? In this episode, featuring guest Tony Martignetti, we explore the notion of fulfillment. According to Tony, fulfillment is a mindset. As he says in his book, "Happiness and fulfillment are a place to come from, not a place to go to." A pattern I've been noticing, especially post-pandemic and in the midst of the so-called "Great Resignation," is people's overarching desire to do substantial work. The desire to do substantial work ties directly to the desire to be fulfilled. Listen as Tony and I explore these topics in the context of our current environment. Tony Martignetti is a trusted advisor, coach, author, podcast host, and speaker. He brings together over 25 years of business and management experience to elevate leaders and equip them to navigate through change and unlock their true potential. He loves guiding people to find clarity in their lives, so they are energized, fully present, and fulfilled. When leaders unlock their potential and lead from a place of inspired purpose, they impact and inspire everyone around them. Before becoming the founder and Chief Inspiration Officer of Inspired Purpose Coaching, he was a finance and strategy executive with experience working with some of the world's leading life sciences companies. He's the host of The Virtual Campfire podcast and the author of Climbing the Right Mountain: Navigating the Journey to An Inspired Life.
