The Leanne Shelton Podcast

On a scale from 1 to 10, how confident are you? If it's on the lower end of the scale, you're not alone. Maybe it's the result of comparing yourself to others on social media, or from flicking through those glossy re-touched magazines, or from past trauma from your school years. But let me just say this - confidence doesn't just happen. Trust me. This bubbly, energetic woman you hear on this podcast once struggled with her own self-esteem demons. But you have a choice. You can listen to that voice saying you can't - or prove to yourself that you can. Or you can book yourself in for a glamour photoshoot and leave the room with a renewed air of confidence. Today on the Marketing & Me podcast, I'm chatting with Catherine Leung from HeavenlyImage Photography. Catherine is determined to help women find their confidence both inside and out by creating images that reflect their very best self. I loved our conversation and I'm sure you will too.

Do you put yourself first in life? Or do you feel selfish even contemplating that question? In reality, it's actually very important to respect yourself enough to take care of your own needs first. Because only then can you be happy and thrive in your own life. It also allows you to be fully present for others and avoid burnout - which doesn't just have a negative impact on you, but also those around you. Yes, even your loved ones - who you thought you were helping by making them your number 1 priority in the first place! In today's episode, I'm chatting with Sarah Erwin from High Esteem Coaching, who enforces the importance of charging our own batteries, putting on our own breathing mask first, and all those other metaphors to ensure we're being kind to ourselves and maintaining a strong sense of self. Let's jump into the episode!

So here we are - at the end of 2020. What a year, huh? While it hasn't been a full year since I started this podcast - as that's another month away - I thought this was the perfect time of year to reflect on my podcasting journey. Yes, I thought I was so knowledgeable back in April 2020 when I recorded Episode 17 - How to Start a Podcast. And I guess I did know some stuff back then. But 56 episodes in, I've learnt heaps more, which I thought I'd share with you now. I'll throw in some highlights from past guests as well. Let's get into it!

Have you ever wished you could duplicate yourself - or add more hours to your day - just so you could get everything done? Or are you sick of doing all those little annoying, yet important, admin tasks, like bookkeeping, answering emails, or creating social media posts? If you answered yes to either question, or maybe both, then outsourcing to an offshore VA is something you might want to consider. Today, I'm chatting with Clayton Navarro from VA World Outsourcing about how you can create freedom in your day by employing a part time or full time virtual assistant. I'm personally just days away from experiencing that freedom - and I'm so excited to welcome my new part time virtual marketing assistant to the team. Yes, I'm actually developing a team now! So if you've considered going down the same path - and ever wondered what's involved in the process - you're gonna love this episode. Let's get started!

Do you find yourself regularly sneaking to the pantry to help yourself to yet another chocolate? Or maybe you're always craving salty snacks? Either way - are you grabbing them because you're hungry? Or are you actually seeking comfort? During stressful and uncertain times, many people resort to comfort eating. Which results in guilt and shame. Which can then have a negative impact on their mindset and how they perceive food. In today's episode of Marketing and Me, I'm chatting with Estelle Coombe-Heath about triggers and signs to look out for. Because breaking the comfort eating habit IS possible. So put that chocolate biscuit away - yes I'm talking to you - step out into the fresh air, and enjoy this episode!

Do you ever find yourself forgetting things? Or maybe you've noticed your partner, parent, or grandparent has started repeating themself or showing other signs of potential memory loss or dementia. In society, a dementia diagnosis is often seen as the beginning of the end. A hopeless situation that will just lead to a person slowly declining in health and memory more and more, before the person they once were has completely disappeared. But what if I told you these memory issues could actually be dealt with? And that maybe it's not dementia at all - but a B12 deficiency? Today, I'm chatting with Louise Hallinan from the Smart Brain Health Centre who has some very interesting insight to share about improving our brain health. Some of this information will surprise you. Let's jump into this mind-opening episode.

How often do you detox? Or how often do you think about detoxing...and then don't? As someone with food intolerances, who also has a full-on lifestyle of work, family, and self-care, it's something I personally need to do. But it just never happens. But after my interview with Lynda Dyer from Mind Power Global, I am determined to give this detoxing thing a real crack.
