EP 64 Hard Love: Why Your Business isn't Growing
In this episode… Hard Love: Why Your Business isn't Growing Women’s Growth + Success coach, Debbie Shadid, is getting real today with some hard love on what’s causing your business growth to falter. Too many of you are missing such a big piece in your business. You've started a business or have been in business for a long time. You've taken all the classes, paid for education to be certified, watched all the webinars, absorbed all the YouTube videos. You're advancing your skill and that feels good! You know the more knowledgeable you are the more value you can bring your clients - so you continue to sign up for all the classes. But you’re not growing the way you thought you would. What’s the deal? Hear me on this - the classes and the webinars and the freebies aren’t what get you hired. You get hired when you keep putting yourself out there over and over. When you’re getting in front of people by opening conversations, planning your content, and managing your business like a CEO. If you’re doing nothing but soaking up education, no one knows who you are! So many people think they can turn their passion into a business and “if you build it, they will come” and that simply isn’t true in this day and age. A logo and an LLC isn’t enough. You need an actual plan to get your business out there in front of people AND have all of the business-y stuff set up. Hear me - there is too much competition out there to not address all of the business pieces. You can have a cute little side hustle or a full fledged business. Neither is bad - but it’s up to YOU to decide which you want and make your efforts match that goal. If you're feeling a little sick right now as I say this- you need help. If you have a question about any of this: stop now and pick a time to talk to me. Don't go a year or 5 years waiting and wondering what you're doing wrong. Whatever is going on in your business is not new to me, it can be fixed Now so you can have the business work- bringing in inquiries, where you know what to say, where you know your price is right.

Fear is the big looming obstacle that keeps most people from reaching their goals, dreams, potential - their ideal life.

We’re scared of how we’ll look.We’re scared of others' reactions.We’re scared of not meeting others' expectations.We’re scared of being discovered as a fraud. And what’s the result? We don’t put ourselves out there. We don’t be ourselves around other people.We don’t offer the services we want for fear of failing. We hide. Can you relate? Are you tired of being passive and letting your life pass by? Are you ready to learn how to move THROUGH fear instead of being held back by it?

Ep 58 - Quitting on Your Dreams
In this episode… Quitting on Your Dreams Women’s Growth + Success Coach, Debbie Shadid, talks to you about how we can sometimes be quitting on ourselves. You have dreams. I know you do - you're here. I think we were born with a vision for ourselves, and we spend our lives trying to change our minds about it. Our beautiful creative mind can come up with so many brilliant ideas. We are born with ideas to generate hundreds of thousands of dollars. But what do we do about it? Coming up with an idea and not following through is quitting. Sometimes quitting is not so obvious. Quitting can be a bunch of tiny actions that eventually lead to failure, which causes most people to quit. Would you quit your dream?Have you quit on your dream? I think we all have, and we all do. Most of us keep going even when we are allowing small unconscious quits. We don't recognize what we sometimes do that slows our journey to living out our dreams. The truth is, your brain is designed to keep you safe. It's so sneaky. How many times do you have a great idea, and then before you even start - you tell yourself what a dumb idea it is? One minute it's a million-dollar idea, and the next, it's a bad idea, and you move on. That's your primitive brain keeping you safe, keeping you in the cave. I hope that today, I've caused you to think about how you are quitting on yourself.Building a business is about building your mind.

Ep 57 - Redefining Success on Your Terms
In this episode… Redefining Success on Your Terms Women's Growth + Success coach Debbie Shadid talks to you about redefining your success by exploring five areas of your life to see how to set your own standard for what success is for you. The business world is driven by numbers, and truthfully, numbers matter in business. It's important to know how to be profitable, to track all of the essential items to keep your business moving in a positive direction. But for most of us the numbers just don’t do it in terms of “success.” We’re generally looking for something deeper than just a six figure goal. What should success look like to you? Women tend to look at our life as a whole with various aspects needing to balance out. We need to find harmony in our business, household, relationships, and selves in order to feel like we’re succeeding in life. For each one of us, this looks different - we may be more dedicated to our business and self-growth, and keep our household responsibilities to a minimum. And these change with the seasons of our lives. We may need to lower our business responsibilities to take care of more personal matters. The point is, success looks different for each of us and can fluidly change throughout our lives. So let’s take some time to redefine what success looks like to you, right now. Here are some questions to ask:What does personal success look like to me? (i.e. your personal growth, wellness, fitness, learning, and how would you measure it)What does business success look like to me? (i.e. profit, total sales, number of bookings, number of followers, the amount in the bank?) What does relationship success look like to me? (i.e. focus on your significant other, finding a significant other, focusing on yourself, etc.) What about your family, your kids, your other family members? (i.e. being at home with kids, caring for elderly parents, etc.)Then there is the everything else bucket. (i.e. friendships, your job, your religion, volunteering, etc.)Your success plan should be specific, measurable, and based on time. You need to have realistic expectations for yourself. YES, I want you to grow - now more than ever - but do it in a way that allows for you to have some kind of freedom with your schedule.
