Am I invoking fear or panic? Am I an expert in this subject?

If you want to talk about putting in the work to make your dreams happen, you have to talk to my friend, Jamie Kern Lima. You might be wearing one of her products from IT Cosmetics right now… But before the billion dollar brand was even a thing, she was a TV news anchor struggling with sensitive skin who could never find a product that worked for her. She created a cosmetics brand that would go on to be more than just products, but an inspired community of millions of women who share their stories of overcoming their struggles with confidence and self-worth.Jamie is a powerhouse business woman, an inspiring speaker, and warm spirit who is on the Goal Digger Podcast to talk all about how she built her brand from the ground up. I can’t wait for you to hear the scrappy moves she pulled in her early days, all the way to the biggest lesson she learned when her vision was challenged.GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: https://jennakutcherblog.com/itcosmetics/Love the show?

358: Can Money Buy Happiness? An Unscripted Conversation with my Business Coach
Dean Graziosi is my business coach, and he and I are very different. We approach almost all aspects of business and life differently, but sitting down with people who aren’t like you is exactly how you grow. We have this friendly banter as an odd couple in business, and I love learning from him.I’ve shared conversations with Dean before on the Goal Digger Podcast, but I hope you don’t mind me opening up my little vault of content to share with you a conversation we recorded together with a vision of launching our own podcast together. The files have been hanging out, waiting for a plan, and I thought now was a perfect time to let you listen in on a different chat with my coach.We broach the often controversial topic of money and happiness, and Dean shares his views on how the two are connected. I talk about my transition from corporate life to entrepreneurship, and why you might not ever get the permission you’re seeking to make a big jump in your life.

357: Steal My Pinterest Strategy Secrets for 1 Million Viewers
With social media, there’s one constant we can count on -- Change. Doesn’t it seem that just as we’ve got it all figured out, the powers-at-be switch it up again?But never fear because my team and I get to work breaking down new strategies to share with you, so you can get on top of the changes faster. The most recent change we’ve been navigating? Pinterest. A few months ago we received embargoed information from Pinterest in partnership with Tailwind that stated the way the algorithm prioritized and distributed content was changing. We’ve been in contact with them behind-the-scenes, working through the changes, and have been testing strategies over the last several months to be able to share them with you!The good news? We have seen incredible growth in our stats (like, numbers in the millions). So what does it mean for YOU and what key things can you incorporate into your Pinterest strategy for the updated algorithm?

356: These 5 Thoughts Are Holding You Back
Have you ever talked yourself out of something even though you really *really* wanted to do it? When I’ve had this inner back and forth of should I, shouldn’t I, it’s because I know deep down what I WANT to do, but I’ve heard other voices in my head telling me why I shouldn’t or why I’m not qualified or why I’ll fail…We ALL have these voices that come at us in the form of external messaging and then internal reminders, again and again and again. But we can learn to recognize our limiting beliefs, and decide to move past them in a healthy way so we can fulfill the great things we’re meant to do in this world. It is CHALLENGING work but also the most rewarding work. I want to walk you through 5 of the most common limiting beliefs that women encounter and how to move past them.GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: https://jennakutcherblog.com/5thoughts/Love the show?

No regrets… But hindsight is usually 20-20. It’s funny looking back at life and realizing just how many things we could’ve done better, streamlined sooner or simply made smarter decisions about. I’m not an advocate of living with any regrets, but I do think looking at our past is a valuable way to see just how far we’ve come and what we can do better going forward.This is about pinpointing the things I’ve learned to share with you and *hopefully* save you from potential regrets or heartache or frustration.

353: A One Product Business Can Be Successful, Here's Proof
Question: How can you draw a straight line from yourself to the cash? Answer: It’s as simple as ONE product. You only need one product, and one strategy to turn a profit. And that’s how Danielle Leslie built her business.Now she teaches her students a system for creating and launching an online course that proves complexity isn’t necessary. It’s about leaning into the systems that WORK.This stuff is my JAM and I’m excited to nerd out with another course creator right now. Honestly, her approach to course creation and launching is so different from mine, that if the concept hasn’t landed for you before, and you still feel unsure about the course world, I promise this interview will make you think differently.GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: https://jennakutcherblog.com/danielleleslie/Love the show?

I watched everyone’s jaw drop to the floor when I told my team what this woman has accomplished.At 15-years old Keiana Cave was researching the BP oil spill and inventing new ways of detecting toxins in seawater after spills.
