Description

We’ve all seen the advertisements for how to get to a 10K month by doing XYZ. Sounds great, doesn't it? First, we are NOT those people. We are here to bring a true community for female entrepreneurs to a very real place. We don’t promise to have all the answers. We do promise to bring together real women with real struggles, being honest about those struggles. Join us for these stories of women in entrepreneurship; the successes, failures, laughter through tears, and everything in between.

EP 25: The “M” Word: Money - The Real Elephant In The Room with Guest Lynda Sunshine West
00:54:32


Lynda is the Founder & CEO of Action Takers Publishing, a Speaker, 22 time #1 International Bestselling Author, Executive Film Producer, Red Carpet Interviewer, and Philanthropist. She ran away at 5 years old and was gone an entire week. She came home riddled with fears and, in turn, became a people-pleaser. At age 51, she decided to face one fear every day for an entire year. In doing so, she gained an exorbitant amount of confidence and now uses what she learned to fulfill her mission of empowering 5 million women and men to write their stories.

During our chat with Lynda, we talked about her journey to leave corporate to follow her dreams and passions after 36 years (and 49 jobs) in corporate, how she jumped, without a net, to become an entrepreneur, her decision to break through one fear every day for an entire year in 2015 (at age 51), the scariest fear she broke through, the pros and cons of jumping without a net, and mentorship (and how to find the right one for you).

EP 24: Shut Out The Noise And Tune Into What Works For You With Guest Amy Flo-Yo Flores-Young
00:54:24

Amy Flores-Young (Flo-Yo) is the founder of FloYo Travel and the creator of the IMPACT Retreat Roadmap. Amy ensures her clients, soul-centered coaches, consultants and speakers, experience joyful travel as they go to and from events and conferences to grow their businesses. Amy also helps her clients create in-person events and retreats that result in deeper connection with their communities, a larger reach and impact for their unique methodology/body of work, and a profitable event. As a former facilitator herself, she knows how difficult it is to manage the endless logistics while being the “face” of the room. Amy has perfected the art of weaving together the ultimate location and itinerary that both engages and energizes your guests.

During our chat with Amy, we talked about why she chose to do things differently (against the grain), why she is "ok" with NOT having a big change-the-world mission, how she learned why many in-person retreat events fail (or aren't truly profitable), and how she learned to cut out the noise and shiny objects to tune into what works for her.

EP 22: The Journey from Employee to Entrepreneur with Guest Terrie Hanscom
00:36:19

Terrie is the owner and practitioner of Positive Vybes and hails from Beverly, Massachusetts. Terrie graduated from the nursing program at North Shore Community College in 1988 and has truly found it to be a joy working and `raising’ some of the most talented surgeons in the country, including Dr. Atul Gawande, over the last 30 years. During that time, she also observed patients coming into the Operating Room full of anxiety, fearful, and a little to a lot stressed. Then, about 15 years ago she took a workshop on preoperative meditations and liked the premise so much, she started implementing it at her institution and ran the program until she retired in August 2022.

Over the years she’s taken classes, done the research, and finally developed her own program: The +VYBES (Visualize Your Best Elective Surgery) program. This program incorporates clinical meditation and imagery along with energetic body work, assisting patients in balancing their body physically as well as emotionally.

Among many other certifications, she is certified as a Usui Reiki Master Teacher.

During our episode with Terrie we talked about the challenges she faced going from corporate to entrepreneur, the money mindset hurdle for what to charge, and the importance of learning the basic foundational business strategies. Terrie is offering our Listener’s 10% off their first session of Meditation For Surgery. She is also offering a Free Meditation Class On March 7th, as well as a Free Meditation Video Download.

EP 18: The Gift In Every Challenge with Guest Stacey Uhrig
01:07:32

Angelic met Stacey at a book club in January of last year and they hit it off and decided to connect outside of the book club. The rest is history. Stacey is a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach and has been pivotal in Angelic's recovery from past trauma. She educates on what developmental trauma is and how it shows up in adulthood (keeping you stuck!). She helps people understand narcissism and how intergenerational trauma plays a role in our lives, identifies patterns and core beliefs developed in childhood, and teaches them how to FLIP those beliefs as adults leading to more peace, joy, and connection. Stacey also hosts her own podcast, This Meaningful Life, based on the concept that "Everyone has a story. It's your unique, personal story that makes your life meaningful."

During our episode with Stacey, we talked about why she became a trauma coach, what trauma is, the gift in every challenge and purpose in all pain, going back and finding her authenticity, and why she believes that our experiences are divinely designed for us. She also offered a FREE 75-Minute Coaching Session!

EP 014: Here’s Your Sign with Lora and Angelic
00:44:03

In this week’s episode, we discussed the following topics:

  • We tend to burn ourselves out and need to remind ourselves we are in control of our life.
  • Our purpose is where our passions lie.
  • Boundaries and open communication

One topic that keeps coming up pretty regularly is overwhelm and burnout. This temptation or tendency we have of allowing ourselves to get overwhelmed and burned out. So, here’s your sign, ultimately, the bottom line is we are the ones calling the shots.

Angelic and Lora shared their experiences over the holidays of being burned out without realizing it and how that presented for each of them in different ways.

Do you find yourself constantly moving and busy? If so, maybe take a moment to ask yourself why and be curious. Could it be an attempt to avoid thoughts or emotions you don't want to deal with?

EP 11: Life Is Either A Daring Adventure Or Nothing At All with Guest Jean Walters
00:39:41

The title of this week’s episode is a Helen Keller quote that Jean shared during our chat today. Jean has been teaching self-empowerment principles for 40 years. She has studied metaphysics extensively and applies universal principles to every area of her life. Her articles have appeared in major newspapers and publications and her syndicated radio show, Positive Moments was broadcast in 110 markets nationally. Jean’s passion is helping people recognize their innate power and place in the Universe, and to live fully from that knowing. Her specialties are transformational coaching, metaphysics, dream interpretation, Akashic record reading (over 35,000 given), and public speaking. Jean helped us rename our struggles challenges and begin to understand the power of our words and our mindset as it relates to manifesting abundance - both in our lives and our entrepreneurial endeavors. A few of the nuggets Jean shared were to be aware of fear, use the now to look at our challenges differently, and to ask ourselves what is this challenge trying to teach us rather than getting stuck in the moment or the negative. Jean answered these questions for us on today’s episode:

  • What is an abundance mindset?
  • What are some practical methods that help you live abundantly?
  • What does living without struggle mean?
  • What do you mean by your ability to manifest the life you want is based on your choices and how you view them?
  • What does it mean to live passionately? To do work you feel passionate about?

She also shared what it means to her to ‘stay in your lane’ when it comes to business. She also talked about the numbers. Yep, that’s right, she went there. She talked about the truth about earning six figures in her corporate career and how she earns now with her own business - and the real meaning in those numbers.

EP 9: What it means to “win” in business & break beliefs that don’t Align with Guest Rikki Smith
00:47:29

We had a great time discussing what it meant for Rikki growing up in the military with a set of ideas to let the “boys win.”  Don't be smarter or faster or be better than them in any way.  That was not a good thing to do to them. Going into business meant she had to find her voice, not worry about those teachings, and just be authentically who she was.

Talking through how not everyone is your friend just because, but to choose your friends, choosing those that are willing to disagree with you, but still willing to support you. Those are the ones that love you and all that you are.  Friends should not just be there just because you have known them forever. Being the smartest person in the room or not having anyone around you  growing isn’t good either. Being on a path of growth is the goal.

She explained that we can make excuses, for too little time, money, and energy, but it takes a real belief in ourselves to build a business.  Make sure to tune into all the wonderful nuggets of wisdom that Rikki had to offer.

Free 30 minutes discussion on your training needs. Please email Rikki to schedule at rsmith@stratustrains.com

EP 5: Working from Roam: Being a Digital Nomad with guest Jess Jorgenson
00:45:02

As a lifelong tech nerd, Jess Jorgensen has found her home as a multi business owner and Entrepreneur while traveling and exploring the USA as a digital nomad. After leaving the tech channel in corporate America, Jess continued her IT expertise by launching Blush Technology Group in the middle of a pandemic. The quality of life that technology offers people across the globe has always been a passion for Jess as she raised her 7 (now adult) children because it afforded her the ability to work from the football field, home when kids were ill, or pretty much anywhere she needed to be. As a busy mother, finding the best possible balance between work and home obligations was Jess’ priority and helping others find that peace of mind is what has kept her in the tech field for her entire career. Blush Technology Group tackles complex communication, network architecture, and cyber security challenges.

As the children all left home for their adult adventures, Jess found herself bored and wanting to travel more with her husband, Russ, and 2 dogs. She had solved their mobile internet issue by repurposing some enterprise tech for RVs. That solution is the foundation of goRoam.tech! Today, as full-time RV dwellers and digital nomads, the Jorgensen’s travel the country while helping others do the same. Jess and her team of experts deploy rugged technology to withstand the elements while simultaneously smoothing LTE/Cellular/Satellite connections into one reliable and stable stream of internet services. This technology is helping other Entrepreneurs and professionals who rely on Zoom/MS Teams/Google Workspaces to run their businesses thrive. goRoam.tech is a lifestyle brand created to help all traveling professionals enjoy a better quality of life with tech while traveling. When not working, Jess loves to snuggle her dogs, hike, kayak, read, and off-road in their Can-Am.

TOPICS:

  1. The value of technology in quality of life as a Mom & Entrepreneur
  2. Imposter Syndrome in Women Business Owners
  3. Going after your dreams even when folks think you're a bit crazy. Life is an adventure!
