Sarah shared that the transition was anxiety-inducing, but she found hope when she received three job offers within the first month. They discussed the possibility of Sarah working as a subcontractor through her own business.

Sarah shared her personal growth journey, expressing regret over not letting go of other people's opinions earlier. Amy highlighted the significance of genuine connections and finding community. They also discussed the impact of self-care on physical health and its role in emotional healing. Sarah shared a homemade face cream recipe made from organic cocoa butter and coconut oil, emphasizing its benefits as a gentle cleanser and moisturizer.

        <![CDATA[<p>Listen to the fascinating journey Queen Nikki, the Sales Maven, took from working with ALL men in tech sales in the 90s, to leaning into her real gifts &amp; sharing them with other women. Who knew sales could actually be fun &amp; easy? Sales isn't what we think it is, and Nikki gives us the 5 step process to the stareway to heaven with sales. </p><p>🎙️ Podcast Episode with Nikki Rausch<br>Amy and Nikki caught up on personal matters and discussed potential business trips and podcasts. They also had a detailed conversation about sales and the importance of acknowledging and leveraging one's strengths. They discussed the five-step process of sales, the concept of 'the curse of knowledge', and the importance of communication in sales. The conversation ended with Nikki offering a free mini-training called 'Mastering the Sales Conversation'.</p><p><br>👩‍💼 Women in Sales: Nikki Rausch's Journey and Mission<br>Nikki Rausch discussed her journey into sales and her mission to help women improve their sales skills. She shared her experience working in a male-dominated industry and how she used her sales skills to improve her personal relationships. After years of successful sales in a corporate setting, she transitioned to help women in sales, recognizing that many struggled with it. She found that she could offer valuable lessons to these women, which allowed her to continue working in sales while also networking with women, which she found fulfilling. The conversation also touched on the idea of self-doubt in sales and the tendency to undervalue skills that come naturally.</p><p>💪 Strengths, Sales, and the Curse of Knowledge<br>Nikki Rausch and Amy Singleton discussed the importance of acknowledging and leveraging one's strengths, and how it can positively impact others. They also touched upon the concept of 'the curse of knowledge', where experts in a field often underestimate the difficulty others may face in understanding their knowledge. Nikki shared her belief in the crucial role of sales skills in personal and professional success, and introduced her 5-step 'Selling Staircase' framework for effective sales conversations. The first step in this framework is the introduction, aimed at creating a powerful first impression.</p><p>🔍 Sales Curiosity and Discovery Process<br>Nikki Rausch discussed the five-step process of sales, emphasizing the importance of creating curiosity in the second step. She noted that many entrepreneurs overlook this crucial aspect, making it difficult to earn a potential client's business. Nikki explained that curiosity involves sparking interest in the client to want to know more about the product or service. She also highlighted the importance of the discovery step, where the salesperson seeks to understand the client's needs and whether their product or service can meet them. Finally, Nikki stressed the need for a clear close in the final step, where the salesperson asks for the business.</p><p>📢 Communication Strategies in Sales<br>Nikki Rausch and Amy Singleton had a discussion about the importance of communication in sales. Nikki emphasized the need to approach conversations with potential clients like calling a cat, rather than a dog. She advocated for creating curiosity in the client by using intriguing statements or responses, known as "here, Kitty, Kitty" responses. She suggested that this approach would encourage clients to ask follow-up questions, leading to more in-depth conversations about the product or service being offered. Amy agreed and seemed to understand the importance of these strategies.</p><p>🔑 Curiosity and Engagement in Conversations<br>Nikki Rausch advised Amy Singleton on the use of "here Kitty, Kitty" responses to create curiosity and engagement in conversations. Nikki emphasized that these responses could be used in various contexts and could lead to buying signals, indicating interest. She also outlined a five-step process for handling business conversations, noting that the steps could be completed in one conversation or spread out over several. The conversation ended with Amy acknowledging the usefulness of Nikki's advice.</p><p>💼 Sales Conversation Strategies<br>Amy and Nikki discussed the importance of initiating conversations in sales. They emphasized the need to actively engage with potential clients, rather than passively waiting for them to come. They also highlighted the role of curiosity and questions in prompting dialogue and keeping conversations engaging. Nikki stressed the significance of being comfortable and skilled in sales conversations to foster a sense of comfort and credibility in clients. They also touched upon the necessity of being able to identify potential clients from those who are not suited to their offer.</p><p>🤝 Client Selection and Professionalism<br>Amy Singleton and Nikki Rausch discussed the importance of identifying the right clients for their services and the confidence to turn away clients who are not a good fit. Nikki suggested using the "bless and release" technique when dealing with clients who are not ready for their services. They also discussed the importance of maintaining professionalism and respect when ending conversations with clients who are not a good fit.</p><p>🎯 Coaching Roles and Client Guidance<br>Nikki Rausch and Amy Singleton discussed their coaching roles and the importance of staying in their respective lanes. They also talked about the necessity of being straightforward with clients, especially when it comes to pricing. Nikki stressed the importance of stating prices confidently and using "close language" to guide clients towards decisions. This approach was illustrated when Nikki suggested the phrase "Is that something you'd like to get signed up for?" as a tool to encourage clients to make decisions.</p><p>💼 Sales Strategies and Client Communication<br>Amy and Nikki discussed strategies for closing sales and maintaining communication with potential clients. Nikki emphasized the importance of scheduling a follow-up call or meeting to answer any additional questions and discuss next steps. This approach ensures efficient use of time and makes it easier for the potential client.

Amy agreed with Connie's points, highlighting the importance of active listening in improving communication quality and closing deals.</p><p>🔍 Client-Centric Solutions: Tailoring to Needs<br>Amy and Connie discussed the importance of customizing solutions for clients based on their specific needs and problems, rather than focusing solely on the features of the product.

Connie suggested viewing the solution as a collaborative process, where the client's input is valued and incorporated into the final plan. They also highlighted the importance of addressing immediate needs before considering long-term goals, and the potential for this approach to build trust and loyalty with clients.</p><p>🌟 New Communication Framework Development<br>Amy and Connie discussed the development of a new communication framework.

        <![CDATA[<p>Tune in to hear Queen Diane talk about the most common pitfalls brand new business owners can avoid &amp; how they can truly set themseves up for success in the freedom they were seeking when they started out.</p><p>👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Legacy and Career Impact<br>Diane shared their journey into business advising and training, inspired by their father's successful sales career and their own experiences in small business management and leadership. They revealed that a pivotal moment was the death of their father, which led them to consider a career with more impact. Diane also highlighted the influence of the Dale Carnegie course on their sales skills. The conversation emphasized the significance of personal experiences and family legacy in career choices and the impact of loss on career transitions.</p><p>🧭 Diane's Career as a Business Advisor<br>Diane and Amy discussed Diane's potential career as a life coach or business advisor. Diane shared their realization that they were already providing advice, input, and ideas to businesses, which they couldn't implement on their own. Diane identified the most common problems businesses face as disliking sales or having a lack of time due to not having systems in place. Amy noted that these issues were similar to those in counseling. The conversation concluded with Diane identifying the need for systems and structures in businesses.</p><p>📊 Processes and Systems in Businesses<br>Diane and Amy discussed the importance of developing processes and systems for businesses. Diane defined a process as a series of steps to accomplish a task, which should be recorded for continuity. Amy suggested using a phone's voice recorder to document steps. They also touched on the concept of systems, which involves stepping back to analyze a business's efficiency, avoid waste, and potentially automate tasks. The importance of starting these processes early in a business's lifecycle was emphasized, with the understanding that they can evolve and change over time.</p><p>🚀 Leadership, Trust, and Teamwork<br>Amy and Diane discussed the importance of leadership in process improvement and the value of listening to team members. They highlighted the struggles that small business owners often encounter when trying to let go of control and trust their team members. They emphasized the importance of trust, recognition, communication skills, and integrity in effective leadership. They also addressed the challenges of maintaining a healthy ego and acknowledging mistakes. Lastly, they underscored the role of leaders as stewards of their team members, with a responsibility to lead by example.</p><p>🤝 Redefining Sales: From Persuasion to Curiosity<br>Diane and Amy discussed the concept of sales and the fear associated with it among business owners and salespeople. Diane shared their experience of explaining to their son the importance of civility and politeness towards strangers. They delved into the idea of redefining sales, moving away from the traditional concept of always closing and being persuasive, and instead emphasizing curiosity and focusing on the other person. They agreed that the traditional concept of sales is flawed and needs to be redefined, especially in the context of the internet era where consumers are well-informed.</p><p>🧠 Sales-to-Empathy Mindset Shift Discussed<br>Diane and Amy discussed the importance of shifting from a sales-focused mindset to one that is more curious and empathetic. They emphasized the value of understanding potential clients beyond just their ability to pay, including their values and whether they are a good fit. They also highlighted the potential benefits of this approach, such as building trust and respect, even if they don't end up working with the client.</p><p>📈 Selling, Small Businesses, Leadership Training<br>Diane and Amy discussed the importance of not appearing desperate when selling, emphasizing that customers want to make purchases when they need it, not due to persuasion. Diane shared their preference for working with small businesses, particularly in leadership positions, and expressed a passion for training lower and mid-level leaders who lack necessary skills. They also touched upon the challenges Diane faced in balancing their business with raising young children.</p><p>🔄 Business Pivot and Focus for 2024<br>Diane shared their experiences with a problematic partnership and the challenges their business faced due to the Covid-19 pandemic, such as the shift from in-person to online training. They mentioned that their business almost became extinct due to the pandemic but they managed to pivot and create online training. Diane also shared their word for 2024, 'focus', and their plan to develop relationships with companies for more control over their training engagements. Amy agreed with Diane's focus and emphasized the importance of avoiding distractions.</p><p>⚖️ Small Business Work-Life Balance Struggles<br>Diane and Amy discussed a client who owned a small business and struggled with work-life balance, often failing to return phone calls and emails, and have difficulties in scheduling clients. Diane started working with the client a few years ago, gradually introducing new systems and delegating responsibilities to trusted contractors. The client was initially hesitant but eventually became more open to change. They even managed to take a vacation and maternity leave without disrupting the business. The client is now more receptive to suggestions and looking to further improve the business. Diane also mentioned their podcast where they interviews experts to share knowledge and strategies for accelerating business growth.</p><p>📚 Networking Ebook and Business Plans<br>Amy and Diane discussed a new ebook about networking that Diane had prepared. They agreed it would be a useful resource, especially for in-person networking. Diane shared their plans for the year, aiming to secure more clients independently and increase their business activity. They expressed their desire to do more public speaking and the usefulness of podcasts for reaching a wider audience. Diane acknowledged some lead work that needs to be done and plans to join Shirb. Amy offered their company's help with marketing, SEO, and generating leads through Facebook ads or social media marketing. They agreed to keep in touch and share information.</p><p>Next steps:<br>• Business owners should start developing processes and systems from the beginning of their business. They can record their steps using a voice recorder and transcribe it later.<br>• Leaders should trust their team members and consider their ideas for process improvement.<br>• Business owners should understand that they are stewards of their team and have a responsibility to lead by example.<br>• When selling, business owners should be curious and think about the other person, rather than being in "sales mode".<br>• Diane will work on generating leads for her business, including joining Shirb and doing more public speaking.</p><p>🌐 Links:</p><p>Website: helbigenterprises.com<br>LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dhelbig/<br>Facebook: facebook.com/SeizeThisGrowth/<br>Instagram: instagram.com/seizethisgrowth/<br>YouTube: youtube.com/@Seizethisgrowth/featured<br>Ebook: Networking Ebook 🌟 Rate &amp; Review: Enjoyed this episode?

The importance of starting these processes early in a business's lifecycle was emphasized, with the understanding that they can evolve and change over time.</p><p>🚀 Leadership, Trust, and Teamwork<br>Amy and Diane discussed the importance of leadership in process improvement and the value of listening to team members. They highlighted the struggles that small business owners often encounter when trying to let go of control and trust their team members. They emphasized the importance of trust, recognition, communication skills, and integrity in effective leadership. They also addressed the challenges of maintaining a healthy ego and acknowledging mistakes. Lastly, they underscored the role of leaders as stewards of their team members, with a responsibility to lead by example.</p><p>🤝 Redefining Sales: From Persuasion to Curiosity<br>Diane and Amy discussed the concept of sales and the fear associated with it among business owners and salespeople. Diane shared their experience of explaining to their son the importance of civility and politeness towards strangers. They delved into the idea of redefining sales, moving away from the traditional concept of always closing and being persuasive, and instead emphasizing curiosity and focusing on the other person. They agreed that the traditional concept of sales is flawed and needs to be redefined, especially in the context of the internet era where consumers are well-informed.</p><p>🧠 Sales-to-Empathy Mindset Shift Discussed<br>Diane and Amy discussed the importance of shifting from a sales-focused mindset to one that is more curious and empathetic. They emphasized the value of understanding potential clients beyond just their ability to pay, including their values and whether they are a good fit. They also highlighted the potential benefits of this approach, such as building trust and respect, even if they don't end up working with the client.</p><p>📈 Selling, Small Businesses, Leadership Training<br>Diane and Amy discussed the importance of not appearing desperate when selling, emphasizing that customers want to make purchases when they need it, not due to persuasion. Diane shared their preference for working with small businesses, particularly in leadership positions, and expressed a passion for training lower and mid-level leaders who lack necessary skills. They also touched upon the challenges Diane faced in balancing their business with raising young children.</p><p>🔄 Business Pivot and Focus for 2024<br>Diane shared their experiences with a problematic partnership and the challenges their business faced due to the Covid-19 pandemic, such as the shift from in-person to online training. They mentioned that their business almost became extinct due to the pandemic but they managed to pivot and create online training. Diane also shared their word for 2024, 'focus', and their plan to develop relationships with companies for more control over their training engagements. Amy agreed with Diane's focus and emphasized the importance of avoiding distractions.</p><p>⚖️ Small Business Work-Life Balance Struggles<br>Diane and Amy discussed a client who owned a small business and struggled with work-life balance, often failing to return phone calls and emails, and have difficulties in scheduling clients. Diane started working with the client a few years ago, gradually introducing new systems and delegating responsibilities to trusted contractors. The client was initially hesitant but eventually became more open to change. They even managed to take a vacation and maternity leave without disrupting the business. The client is now more receptive to suggestions and looking to further improve the business. Diane also mentioned their podcast where they interviews experts to share knowledge and strategies for accelerating business growth.</p><p>📚 Networking Ebook and Business Plans<br>Amy and Diane discussed a new ebook about networking that Diane had prepared. They agreed it would be a useful resource, especially for in-person networking. Diane shared their plans for the year, aiming to secure more clients independently and increase their business activity. They expressed their desire to do more public speaking and the usefulness of podcasts for reaching a wider audience. Diane acknowledged some lead work that needs to be done and plans to join Shirb. Amy offered their company's help with marketing, SEO, and generating leads through Facebook ads or social media marketing. They agreed to keep in touch and share information.</p><p>Next steps:<br>• Business owners should start developing processes and systems from the beginning of their business. They can record their steps using a voice recorder and transcribe it later.<br>• Leaders should trust their team members and consider their ideas for process improvement.<br>• Business owners should understand that they are stewards of their team and have a responsibility to lead by example.<br>• When selling, business owners should be curious and think about the other person, rather than being in "sales mode".<br>• Diane will work on generating leads for her business, including joining Shirb and doing more public speaking.</p><p>🌐 Links:</p><p>Website: helbigenterprises.com<br>LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dhelbig/<br>Facebook: facebook.com/SeizeThisGrowth/<br>Instagram: instagram.com/seizethisgrowth/<br>YouTube: youtube.com/@Seizethisgrowth/featured<br>Ebook: Networking Ebook 🌟 Rate &amp; Review: Enjoyed this episode?

        <![CDATA[<p>Listen to Queen Sera &amp; Amy dive into why we eat the way we do and talk about what therapies actually WORK when it comes to changing your mindset around food &amp; other mental health struggles. </p><p>💼 Integrating Hypnosis and EMDR: A Therapist's Journey<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle, Ph.D., the owner of New York Health Hypnosis and Integrative Therapy, shared insights into their work and that of their colleagues, which involves integrating hypnosis into therapy. They mentioned the creation of a second practice dedicated to EMDR therapy. Additionally, Dr. Sera Lavelle introduced an AI-based app called "Be a Better Eating," which uses mindfulness to help individuals rewire their thinking around food, especially in cases of eating disorders. The discussion delved into Dr. Sera Lavelle's passion for psychology and the distinction between psychologists and psychiatrists. Collaboration between healthcare professionals for patient well-being was also emphasized.</p><p>🍔 Disordered Eating and Emotional Eating<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle and Amy discussed disordered eating and eating disorders. Dr. Sera Lavelle suggested that many struggles with food are differences of degree rather than categorical differences. They also addressed the prevalence of emotional eating and the use of food for comfort. The conversation revolved around exaggerated beliefs about the happiness food can bring, drawing parallels with Plato's concept of form and the pursuit of perfection.</p><p>🌱 Holistic Therapy for Weight Loss Discussed<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle and Amy explored ineffective methods for weight loss and the emerging belief in holistic therapy. They discussed potential links between childhood experiences and weight loss struggles, especially regarding parents' approaches to dieting and controlling food. Mindful eating, hypnotherapy, and motivational interviewing were proposed as effective methods, with a caution against daily weigh-ins. Both agreed on the social preoccupation with weighing oneself.</p><p>🧘 Self-Awareness and Fitness Tracker Use<br>The importance of self-awareness in determining health was discussed. Dr. Sera Lavelle cautioned against excessive reliance on external devices like fitness trackers, which can lead to neglecting physical and mental cues. The conversation included Amy's personal experience with fitness trackers and the potential usefulness of such devices for baseline data, particularly for individuals sensitive to blood sugar fluctuations.</p><p>🌀 Hypnosis and Alternative States of Consciousness in Therapy<br>Amy and Dr. Sera Lavelle engaged in a discussion about the use of hypnosis and alternative states of consciousness in therapy. Dr. Sera Lavelle explained the use of hypnosis in the initial patient session and differentiated between stage hypnosis and therapeutic hypnosis. They also discussed a machine called the theta machine, which induces the Theta wave state but is not FDA approved. The discussion concluded with consideration of natural methods to alter states of consciousness.</p><p>🌅 Lupus, Mental Health, and Career Growth<br>Amy shared their journey with Lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, highlighting how mental and physical self-care has reduced their medication intake. They emphasized the importance of shifting one's mindset for improved health. Dr. Sera Lavelle discussed the complex relationship between depression and Lupus and the benefits of hypnosis and EMDR therapy. Dr. Sera Lavelle, who has undergone EMDR therapy themselves and trains others in it, shared their career trajectory from therapist to a leader inspiring others to reach their potential.</p><p>🧠 Trauma Storage, EMDR, and AI-Based App Development<br>The concept of trauma storage in the body and the therapeutic benefits of recalling traumatic memories were explored. Dr. Sera Lavelle elaborated on the EMDR technique, which helps individuals move past traumatic experiences. Amy shared their positive experience with EMDR therapy. Dr. Sera Lavelle introduced the concept of remote EMDR technology and their AI-based app 'Bea,' designed to promote healthy eating habits. The app is in beta testing and scheduled for an upcoming launch.</p><p>🍏 Healthy Eating AI App Discussion<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle discussed their AI-based app designed to help users develop healthy eating habits. The app offers knowledge, motivation, and meditation paths, along with guided scripts for users to retrain their thinking about food. Amy inquired about the app's availability and pricing, and Dr. Sera Lavelle confirmed that the app would be accessible for free, with an upgrade fee for full functionality.</p><p>🍽 Mindful Eating and Exercise Choices<br>Amy and Dr. Sera Lavelle emphasized the importance of listening to one's body and making conscious choices regarding eating and exercise. They discussed the satisfaction that comes from intentional choices rather than indulgence and guilt. Dr. Sera Lavelle mentioned their team of clinical psychologists matching clients with suitable therapists based on specific needs and the link between trauma and a lack of body awareness.</p><p>🌟 Amy's Self-Discovery and BEA App Launch<br>Amy shared their personal journey of self-discovery and self-improvement, overcoming drug addiction and weight issues. They highlighted the value of awareness and its positive impact on their life. Amy also mentioned the upcoming launch of the BEA app, scheduled for April 10th, designed to help people become more aware.</p><p>🌐 Links:</p><p>Website: www.nyhealthhypnosis.com<br>LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/seralavelle/<br>Facebook: www.facebook.com/nyhealthhypnosis<br>Instagram: www.instagram.com/nyhealthhypnosis<br>🌟 Rate &amp; Review: Enjoyed this episode?

        <![CDATA[<p>Listen to Queen Sera &amp; Amy dive into why we eat the way we do and talk about what therapies actually WORK when it comes to changing your mindset around food &amp; other mental health struggles. </p><p>💼 Integrating Hypnosis and EMDR: A Therapist's Journey<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle, Ph.D., the owner of New York Health Hypnosis and Integrative Therapy, shared insights into their work and that of their colleagues, which involves integrating hypnosis into therapy. They mentioned the creation of a second practice dedicated to EMDR therapy. Additionally, Dr. Sera Lavelle introduced an AI-based app called "Be a Better Eating," which uses mindfulness to help individuals rewire their thinking around food, especially in cases of eating disorders. The discussion delved into Dr. Sera Lavelle's passion for psychology and the distinction between psychologists and psychiatrists. Collaboration between healthcare professionals for patient well-being was also emphasized.</p><p>🍔 Disordered Eating and Emotional Eating<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle and Amy discussed disordered eating and eating disorders. Dr. Sera Lavelle suggested that many struggles with food are differences of degree rather than categorical differences. They also addressed the prevalence of emotional eating and the use of food for comfort. The conversation revolved around exaggerated beliefs about the happiness food can bring, drawing parallels with Plato's concept of form and the pursuit of perfection.</p><p>🌱 Holistic Therapy for Weight Loss Discussed<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle and Amy explored ineffective methods for weight loss and the emerging belief in holistic therapy. They discussed potential links between childhood experiences and weight loss struggles, especially regarding parents' approaches to dieting and controlling food. Mindful eating, hypnotherapy, and motivational interviewing were proposed as effective methods, with a caution against daily weigh-ins. Both agreed on the social preoccupation with weighing oneself.</p><p>🧘 Self-Awareness and Fitness Tracker Use<br>The importance of self-awareness in determining health was discussed. Dr. Sera Lavelle cautioned against excessive reliance on external devices like fitness trackers, which can lead to neglecting physical and mental cues. The conversation included Amy's personal experience with fitness trackers and the potential usefulness of such devices for baseline data, particularly for individuals sensitive to blood sugar fluctuations.</p><p>🌀 Hypnosis and Alternative States of Consciousness in Therapy<br>Amy and Dr. Sera Lavelle engaged in a discussion about the use of hypnosis and alternative states of consciousness in therapy. Dr. Sera Lavelle explained the use of hypnosis in the initial patient session and differentiated between stage hypnosis and therapeutic hypnosis. They also discussed a machine called the theta machine, which induces the Theta wave state but is not FDA approved. The discussion concluded with consideration of natural methods to alter states of consciousness.</p><p>🌅 Lupus, Mental Health, and Career Growth<br>Amy shared their journey with Lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, highlighting how mental and physical self-care has reduced their medication intake. They emphasized the importance of shifting one's mindset for improved health. Dr. Sera Lavelle discussed the complex relationship between depression and Lupus and the benefits of hypnosis and EMDR therapy. Dr. Sera Lavelle, who has undergone EMDR therapy themselves and trains others in it, shared their career trajectory from therapist to a leader inspiring others to reach their potential.</p><p>🧠 Trauma Storage, EMDR, and AI-Based App Development<br>The concept of trauma storage in the body and the therapeutic benefits of recalling traumatic memories were explored. Dr. Sera Lavelle elaborated on the EMDR technique, which helps individuals move past traumatic experiences. Amy shared their positive experience with EMDR therapy. Dr. Sera Lavelle introduced the concept of remote EMDR technology and their AI-based app 'Bea,' designed to promote healthy eating habits. The app is in beta testing and scheduled for an upcoming launch.</p><p>🍏 Healthy Eating AI App Discussion<br>Dr. Sera Lavelle discussed their AI-based app designed to help users develop healthy eating habits. The app offers knowledge, motivation, and meditation paths, along with guided scripts for users to retrain their thinking about food. Amy inquired about the app's availability and pricing, and Dr. Sera Lavelle confirmed that the app would be accessible for free, with an upgrade fee for full functionality.</p><p>🍽 Mindful Eating and Exercise Choices<br>Amy and Dr. Sera Lavelle emphasized the importance of listening to one's body and making conscious choices regarding eating and exercise. They discussed the satisfaction that comes from intentional choices rather than indulgence and guilt. Dr. Sera Lavelle mentioned their team of clinical psychologists matching clients with suitable therapists based on specific needs and the link between trauma and a lack of body awareness.</p><p>🌟 Amy's Self-Discovery and BEA App Launch<br>Amy shared their personal journey of self-discovery and self-improvement, overcoming drug addiction and weight issues. They highlighted the value of awareness and its positive impact on their life. Amy also mentioned the upcoming launch of the BEA app, scheduled for April 10th, designed to help people become more aware.</p><p>🌐 Links:</p><p>Website: www.nyhealthhypnosis.com<br>LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/seralavelle/<br>Facebook: www.facebook.com/nyhealthhypnosis<br>Instagram: www.instagram.com/nyhealthhypnosis<br>🌟 Rate &amp; Review: Enjoyed this episode?

        <![CDATA[<p>Tune in to hear Queen Linda tell us the BIGGEST things standing in our way as leaders. There really IS an "I" in TEAM, and that's something most leaders miss. Boldly leading means doing things that are hard, like having the hard conversations and truly listening to your intuition.</p><p>Linda and Amy engaged in a wide-ranging discussion during their podcast meeting. Their conversation covered various topics, including podcast preparation, leadership, courage in decision-making, diversity in the corporate world, personal branding, professional relationships, the impact of Covid, and even Linda's journey with belly dancing. Here's a concise summary of their discussion:</p><p>💬 Review and Rating Request for Podcast<br>Amy Singleton initiated the conversation by requesting listeners to take a moment to review and rate the podcast episode. She emphasized the importance of these reviews and ratings for the podcast's reach and influence.</p><p>🎙 Podcast Guest Preparation and Episode Format<br>The conversation began with Linda expressing her excitement about being a guest on Amy's podcast. They discussed Linda's past speaking experiences and shared mutual admiration for each other. Amy outlined the format for Linda's upcoming episode, emphasizing a conversational style and a duration of around 20-30 minutes. They also touched on Linda's recent haircut mishap and her interest in discussing topics such as feral leadership and being autistic in the business world. Amy mentioned that Linda would receive a Google Drive folder containing graphics and reels for their episode, scheduled for release on April 3rd.</p><p>🍃 Feral Leadership: A Return to Nature<br>Linda and Amy delved into the concept of "feral" leadership, a term Linda has been passionate about. They defined "feral" as a return to wildness, breaking free from constraints, and rediscovering natural instincts. They explored how this concept could apply to leadership, fostering innovation, critical thinking, and effective decision-making. They also discussed the growing need for human connection and a return to basic nature in a world heavily reliant on online interaction.</p><p>🌈 Autism and Corporate Diversity: Linda's Story<br>Linda shared their personal experience with autism and discussed their observations of the corporate environment. They opened up about their career struggles, including a late autism diagnosis, sensory issues, and the importance of embracing individuality and creativity. Both Linda and Amy criticized the trend towards uniformity and perfectionism in the workplace and advocated for greater appreciation of diversity and unique contributions.</p><p>⭐ Importance of Exceptions and HR Support<br>Linda shared an anecdote about seeking an exception to a policy for a former colleague with a DUI. They highlighted the significance of considering the human aspect of exceptions and the role of HR in supporting employees through challenges. Amy agreed with Linda's points regarding the importance of facing difficult conversations and HR's role in employee support.</p><p>🌟 Courage, Growth, and Fairness in Decision Making<br>The conversation shifted towards the importance of courage in decision-making. Linda shared their personal journey of choosing comfort over courage and how this transition led to personal growth. Amy echoed these sentiments, emphasizing the significance of moving forward despite fear and doubts. They also discussed Linda's recent move to North Carolina, emphasizing the importance of fairness in work arrangements and questioning the fairness of employers paying for employees to live in expensive cities like San Francisco.</p><p>💇 Pompadour Fade Personal Brand Experience<br>Linda shared their personal experiences related to their unique hair style, a pompadour fade, which has become their personal brand. They humorously recounted a mishap at an old-school barber shop and an incident where a barber refused to cut their hair due to gender issues. The conversation ended on a light-hearted note.</p><p>👥 Leadership, Culture, and Professional Growth<br>Linda shared their experiences in non-traditional workplaces, such as the oil field and the car business. They emphasized the importance of supportive leaders who invest in their team's development, citing an instance where a general manager invested in their training despite a costly mistake. Both Linda and Amy discussed the benefits of helping others in their professional circles, likening it to sending an elevator back down to help others ascend. They highlighted the increased opportunities for success in the business world, especially for entrepreneurs. Effective communication and respect within team dynamics were also emphasized.</p><p>🤝 Professional Relationships With Former Employees<br>Amy and Linda discussed the need to maintain professional relationships with former employees and not treat them poorly. They emphasized the importance of creating a community of alumni, even when employees move on to other companies. Leadership was identified as playing a key role in setting the tone for such relationships.</p><p>🌐 Professionalism, Authenticity, and Covid Impacts<br>Linda and Amy stressed the importance of professionalism and authenticity.

        <![CDATA[<p>Listen to Queen Danielle teach us all about what it takes to manage our time &amp; become MORE efficient in what we're doing day-to-day. </p><p>In this engaging conversation, Amy Singleton met with Danielle from Bailett Consulting to discuss a wide range of topics, including company culture change, time management, productivity, and personal well-being. Here's a concise summary of their discussion:</p><p>🌟 Review and Rating Request for Queen Leaders' Impact<br>Before diving into the meeting summary, Amy Singleton kindly requested that listeners take a moment to review and rate the podcast episode. She emphasized that these reviews and ratings are crucial for expanding the reach and impact of the podcast, particularly among aspiring queen leaders.</p><p>🏢 Onboarding New Employee and Training Materials<br>Danielle shared an unexpected task they had to undertake: onboarding a new employee for one of their clients. This task was unusual for them and related to an effort to change the company's culture. Danielle recommended Debbie Davis, a local leadership coach, to Amy, who expressed interest in meeting Debbie and accessing her training materials. They explored the possibility of accessing these materials through a sub-account.</p><p>🔄 Bailett Consulting's Name Change and Time Management<br>Danielle discussed the origin of their business, Baileyt Consulting, including the name change from "Bailey's Consulting" due to similarities with another business. They also touched upon their experiences growing up with entrepreneur parents and a recent talk they gave about their background and time management skills. Danielle highlighted the importance of consistency, preparation, and time management in achieving personal and professional goals.</p><p>🧭 Time Management and Goal-Setting Reflection<br>Reflecting on their shared experiences growing up in family businesses, Danielle and Amy explored the critical aspects of time management, goal-setting, and prioritization. Danielle emphasized the significance of consistency, preparation, and time management in achieving goals, and suggested that awareness of time usage is essential for making necessary adjustments. The conversation delved into the challenges posed by excessive phone usage and strategies to address it.</p><p>📱 Technology Addiction and Productivity<br>Amy and Danielle discussed the importance of intentional phone usage and the potential for technology addiction. Danielle shared insights into the impact of technology on productivity and her own strategies for managing phone and email usage. They also mentioned a recently launched masterclass on time blocking, designed to help individuals track their time usage and manage interruptions. The discussion highlighted the need to manage technology usage effectively for improved productivity.</p><p>🪂 Time Management Program for Women Launched<br>Danielle introduced a program aimed at helping individuals, particularly women who often struggle with prioritization, structure their time more effectively. The program consists of four modules covering topics such as time management and prioritization. Danielle emphasized the importance of focusing on important tasks over urgent ones, using tools like the Eisenhower priority matrix. The program is available on-demand, with consulting clients having access to it. Amy inquired about the program's duration and cost, with Danielle providing details on its four-week duration and $99 price, along with a special discount code for podcast listeners.</p><p>🔄 Prioritization and Time Management Strategies<br>Both Amy and Danielle acknowledged the challenges of balancing new leads with established clients while maintaining high standards. Danielle suggested implementing time blocking throughout the day to handle different tasks and setting clear timelines to manage expectations. They also discussed the disruptions that can occur when an urgent matter interferes with scheduled time blocks, emphasizing the importance of uninterrupted work periods.</p><p>🌟 Productivity and Consistency in Work and Life<br>The conversation revolved around the significance of focusing on productive work during designated time blocks and avoiding distractions. Danielle emphasized the use of urgency triggers, like revenue and reputation, to prioritize tasks and respond promptly to urgent matters. They also mentioned their consulting firm's "consistency boot camp," designed to help individuals and businesses establish consistent habits. The discussion highlighted that it takes an average of 66 days to form a new habit.</p><p>🕓 Productivity Techniques and Focus Work Days<br>Danielle and Amy underscored the importance of identifying the right activities for success and standardizing measurements for success. Danielle shared insights into their monthly focus work days and the benefits of establishing boundaries. They discussed productivity techniques such as 'body doubling' and the importance of prioritizing tasks and tracking progress. Amy shared her own experiences using similar techniques in her business and the importance of self-motivation.</p><p>⏰ Procrastination, Deadlines, and Rewards<br>Danielle and Amy engaged in a discussion about procrastination, with Danielle suggesting that it often serves as an avoidance mechanism rather than a lack of motivation. They discussed the idea of creating personal deadlines and rewarding oneself with enjoyable activities upon their completion. Both agreed that this approach can help overcome procrastination and minimize the allure of drama. The conversation also touched on external deadlines set by clients as potential motivators.</p><p>🍽 New Diet, Leg Pain, Sleep Challenges<br>Danielle shared details about her new meal plan, which excludes specific foods to address inflammation and improve her leg condition. However, she mentioned that this diet has posed challenges in managing sleep due to leg pain, leading her to take nerve blockers. Despite the difficulties, she remains committed to the diet.</p><p>🎙 Podcast Episode Planning and Pricing Strategy<br>Amy and Danielle discussed an upcoming podcast episode that Amy plans to release on March 20th. Danielle revealed that she is working on a code that she intends to activate, along with planning a pricing strategy that involves incremental price increases for a product.

        <![CDATA[<p>Tune in to hear Constance tell the incredible tale of starting a business with 10K in the bank and 25K in credit card debt. She is a visionary who couldn't unsee the struggle in the eyes of migrant farm workers and immigrants who deserve a fair shake at real citizenship. With multiple offices across the US &amp; several more businesses to run, this absolute Queen Leader has so much wisdom to offer us.</p><p>In this captivating interview, Amy Singleton spoke with Constance Wannamaker, a highly successful CEO and entrepreneur based in El Paso, Texas, covering an array of topics ranging from entrepreneurship, legal advocacy, company growth, and team building. Here's a concise summary of their conversation:</p><p>🎙 Podcast Connection Resolved for March 13th Release<br>Amy and Constance initially faced technical difficulties with their audio connection, which were eventually resolved. They verified various links and social media platforms related to Constance's businesses. Amy confirmed that Constance's episode would be released on March 13th and clarified that the reels provided in the media package would not include captions for aesthetic reasons. The conversation commenced with Amy's enthusiastic introduction to share Constance's remarkable journey with the audience.</p><p>💼 From Debt to 8-Figure Business: Constance's Journey<br>Constance Wannamaker, CEO of a law firm and several other businesses, divulged her incredible journey from financial struggles to substantial success. She recounted her prior struggles with significant credit card debt and then detailed how she overcame these challenges. Constance transitioned from working in nonprofit organizations to establishing her immigration law practice, leveraging her savings and a portion of her nonprofit salary. She underscored the paramount significance of qualities like hustle, mindset, and mentorship in her journey. Constance's current business is thriving, boasting an impressive eight-figure revenue and employing over 150 individuals worldwide.</p><p>🤝 Women Entrepreneurs' Support Systems<br>Amy and Constance delved into the vital topic of support systems, particularly for women entrepreneurs. Constance shared her experience with a group of women law firm owners who convene biannually to provide mutual support. She stressed the importance of embracing failures as learning opportunities and creating a safe environment for team members to make and learn from mistakes. Amy expressed her eagerness to connect some of her female attorney friends with Constance's network for additional support.</p><p>🌍 Immigration Law and Advocacy Discussion<br>A significant portion of the conversation revolved around Constance's work in immigration law. She recounted her personal journey and the experiences that led her to this field, shedding light on the challenges faced by her clients, especially those lacking legal status. Constance and Amy engaged in a spirited discussion regarding the importance of advocating for individuals in need and the necessity of employing creative and assertive legal strategies to help them secure residency. Amy expressed her wholehearted agreement with Constance's approach.</p><p>🌟 Immigration Legal Services Impact Discussed<br>Constance and Amy explored the profound, life-changing impact of providing legal services to immigrants. They emphasized the transformative effects of gaining legal status, including feelings of peace, security, and the potential for a better life, which can span generations. The conversation also touched on the difficulties faced by immigrants in navigating the complex legal system, with references to restrictions on status adjustments, protracted visa wait times, and challenges in sponsoring family members. Both criticized the intricacies of immigration law and the lengthy wait times that may deter people from pursuing legal immigration.</p><p>📋 Importance of Lawyer and Training in Rapid Growth Business<br>Constance underscored the critical role of hiring a lawyer, particularly for intricate government processes, due to the elevated risk of errors and denials. She detailed how her business, established in May 2019, rapidly expanded to employ 50 individuals by effectively utilizing offshore talent, thereby achieving cost-effectiveness and avoiding the need for extensive US office space. Constance also highlighted the importance of continuous training and oversight for her sales team to ensure they provide accurate and ethical advice to clients. The strategy of having a sales team in Mexico has proven to be effective, driving sales and necessitating the hiring of additional employees to meet growing work demands.</p><p>🏢 Team Growth and Company Culture<br>Constance shared insights into the remarkable growth of her team and the necessity for larger office space. She described the process of renovating the building, which included renting out certain floors to other tenants. Constance stressed the importance of cultivating a robust company culture from the outset, especially when the company is experiencing rapid scaling. She acknowledged that she had not been as deliberate about hiring for culture in the past, which led to some employee turnover. The discussion also delved into the challenges of managing a hybrid work environment, where some employees work remotely and others work in the office, and how they are working to ensure that all employees are included in company activities. Amy concurred with Constance's points, emphasizing the importance of shared values in maintaining a cohesive team environment.</p><p>🤝 Team Building and Inclusion Strategies<br>Constance elaborated on her strategies for team building and fostering inclusion within her company. She shared her experiences visiting different teams in Buenos Aires, Bogota, and Atlanta, where she organized a range of team activities, including cooking classes, training sessions, and farm tours. She highlighted the crucial role of these visits in forging connections among team members who might not otherwise interact and in making them feel more integrated within the company. Amy expressed her agreement with the effectiveness of these team visits and video meetings, underscoring that they also provide opportunities for team members to connect with one another.</p><p>🚀 Constance's Career Transition and Future Vision<br>Amy and Constance discussed Constance's transition from practicing law to overseeing her company. Constance revealed that she no longer focuses extensively on practicing law but still enjoys pushing legal boundaries. She pointed out that her company currently lacks a high-level managing attorney, which she considers the most significant gap that needs to be filled. Constance shared her ambitious vision for the future, including plans to expand her law firm's offices across the country, offer community services, and empower the immigrant community.</p><p>🧠 Imposter Syndrome and Migrant Worker Rights<br>The conversation took a detour to explore imposter syndrome and the imperative of continuous learning and personal growth. Constance also mentioned her role as an immigration lawyer and her involvement in a radio show, with plans to adapt it into a podcast. She voiced concerns over the potential exploitation of migrant farm workers, particularly within Oklahoma's burgeoning medical marijuana industry.

        <![CDATA[<p>Wendy will tell you like it is, SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP, one of her books, might have you yelling "heck yeah!" until you realize that the buttercup is YOU. Developing ourselves &amp; those we lead is not as easy as 1-2-3 &amp; Wendy is here to break it down.</p><p>In this engaging and insightful meeting between Amy Singleton and Wendy, the discussion covered a wide array of topics related to HR management, leadership, workplace dynamics, and more. Wendy, known as "The HR Lady," shared her wealth of experience and wisdom, derived from her HR consulting, podcasting, and training endeavors. Here's a concise summary of the key points discussed during the meeting:</p><p>🎙 Wendy's HR Consulting and Podcasting Journey<br>Wendy shared her journey as "The HR Lady," highlighting her podcast, HR management training, and conference speaking engagements. She also provides consultation services to small businesses that lack an HR department. Wendy resides in sunny Florida and operates virtually. The conversation touched on Wendy's new website, which she plans to transition to WordPress. Excitingly, Wendy's episode on Amy's podcast, "Queen's Lead Podcast," is set for release on March 6th.</p><p>🌟 Employee Prioritization and Turnover Prevention<br>Drawing from her extensive HR experience, Wendy emphasized the importance of prioritizing employees and actively working to prevent turnover. She underscored the unfortunate tendency of some businesses to neglect allocating a budget for HR and accounting, which can lead to a lack of understanding and mistreatment of employees. The discussion revolved around the significance of compensation and open communication with employees, suggesting that businesses should directly inquire about their employees' needs to ensure satisfaction and retention. Amy wholeheartedly concurred with Wendy's observations.</p><p>🗣 Communication's Impact on Workplace Responsibility<br>Wendy and Amy delved into the pivotal role of effective communication in the workplace. Wendy stressed the necessity for business owners to foster regular, open dialogues with their employees to align everyone's understanding of roles, thereby reducing errors. Amy echoed these sentiments, emphasizing that employees who feel valued and respected are more inclined to shoulder increased responsibility and ownership. Wendy also introduced the concept of "quiet quitting" as a response to inadequate communication and management from employers.</p><p>📖 Book, Leadership, and Personal Growth<br>Wendy delved into her book, "Suck it Up Buttercup," which draws inspiration from a phrase she frequently used. The book carries a powerful message about leadership and personal growth. She suggested the inclusion of individuals perceived as challenging in the workplace in the development of core values as a means of fostering personal growth.</p><p>🚀 Leadership and Team Dynamics in the Workplace<br>The conversation shifted to a discussion on leadership and team dynamics within organizations. Wendy shared examples from her book where granting employees ownership of tasks led to significant transformations. Amy emphasized the importance of affording employees opportunities to assume leadership roles. Wendy recounted an incident involving disrespectful behavior in a meeting, underscoring the need for self-awareness and recognition of diverse responses to change among team members. They agreed that a one-size-fits-all approach to employees is ineffective, and each individual's response to change and feedback should be handled uniquely.</p><p>🤝 Managerial Challenges and Training Needs<br>Wendy and Amy explored the challenges faced by managers in organizations, particularly the dearth of training and support for new managers. They noted that many younger employees are hesitant to accept promotions due to the increased responsibility and expected workload, which can result in attrition. Wendy recounted advising a friend against accepting a promotion due to the lack of training and support. The discussion also delved into the importance of feedback and management training, with Wendy emphasizing her recent focus on management training, particularly in providing feedback and understanding employment laws.</p><p>🛠 Managerial Learning and Team Building<br>Effective training and communication within a company emerged as a focal point of discussion. Wendy emphasized that managers should be willing to admit when they don't know something and be open to feedback. Amy concurred, asserting that a manager's willingness to learn and admit mistakes is pivotal. They also explored the challenges organizations face in attracting new team members, with Wendy advocating for realistic job descriptions and effective onboarding. Wendy stressed the importance of meticulous planning and preparation for interviews and the first day on the job.</p><p>💼 Recruitment, Expectations, and Leadership Balance<br>Recruitment practices came under scrutiny, with an emphasis on the need for thorough preparation and realistic expectations. The importance of aligning with potential candidates' values was stressed as a means of avoiding wasted time and effort. Wendy and Amy also highlighted the significance of retaining excellent employees, rather than exclusively focusing on those who face challenges. Wendy underscored the need for leaders to actively seek feedback and adjust their leadership style, while Amy acknowledged her own struggles with striking the balance between directness and empathy in professional settings.</p><p>🔄 Generational Differences in the Workplace<br>The conversation turned to the topic of generational differences in the workplace. Wendy noted that while most individuals seek similar elements such as respect, fair compensation, and opportunities for career growth, generational distinctions do exist. Stereotyping based on generational categories was cautioned against, with an emphasis on treating each individual as unique. Wendy also highlighted the role of technology in shaping these differences, suggesting that an understanding of an employee's comfort and familiarity with technology can aid in communication and management.</p><p>🌐 Remote Work and Travel Experience<br>Wendy shared her unique experience of living and working remotely in an RV, traversing the United States while attending conferences. She alluded to an upcoming video and booklet chronicling her travels and work. Amy, who also harbors an interest in adopting a minimalist lifestyle, appreciated Wendy's perspective on the advantages of possessing fewer possessions and enjoying enhanced freedom. Wendy committed to sharing her work with Amy by the end of the week.</p><p>Connect with Wendy (The HR Lady):</p><p>The HR Lady's Training Services<br>The HR Lady's Speaking Engagements<br>The HR Lady's Podcast<br>The HR Lady's Website<br>LinkedIn<br>Instagram<br>YouTube<br>A rich and enlightening discussion that touched upon crucial aspects of HR management, leadership, and workplace dynamics concluded with Wendy's commitment to share her work with Amy by the end of the week.</p><p>Please feel free to rate and review this podcast episode.

They noted that many younger employees are hesitant to accept promotions due to the increased responsibility and expected workload, which can result in attrition.

        <![CDATA[<p>An update from Season 1, Episode 5. This Queen is making some serious moves. Landing not ONE, but TWO TV shows after being turned down by a network, starting a coaching (she'll tell you how to win) program for realtors &amp; loving on this Oklahoma Community.</p><p>In this captivating episode of Queens Lead, Amy and Mariah delved into a wide-ranging conversation encompassing their podcast, Mariah's plans for her burgeoning real estate brokerage, her impressive hosting gigs on "Negotiators Lux" and "Make it Happen," her inspiring career journey, the launch of her coaching program, and the vital role of supportive partners. They also navigated through the complexities of balancing personal and professional life, the authenticity essential for personal branding, and the challenges of public recognition.</p><p>Episode Highlights:</p><p>🎙 Podcast Milestone and Headshots Discussion<br>Amy and Mariah enthusiastically discussed an exciting podcast milestone, which marked a significant achievement for their show. Mariah disclosed that they were slated to feature in a metropolitan magazine shoot, complete with new headshots for the occasion. Amy also mentioned that previous episodes of the podcast could be found on their website. The content of Mariah's upcoming episode was not finalized during the meeting.</p><p>🏡 Real Estate Brokerage Growth and Coaching Program Launch<br>Mariah provided insights into their ambitious plans for the growth of their real estate brokerage. With a current roster of 40 agents, including 10 on their personal team, Mariah is aiming to expand the brokerage to accommodate approximately 30 to 40 agents in 2024. They also highlighted recent key hires, including a new director of operations and a fresh addition to their inside sales team. In addition to their brokerage pursuits, Mariah excitedly shared their plans to launch a coaching program in 2024. The conversation also touched on their experience with a television show pitch that didn't initially materialize but ultimately led to an opportunity with the Reveal Network.</p><p>🌍 Mariah's Global Hosting Experience<br>Mariah recounted their remarkable journey as the global host for a new television show, "Negotiators Lux." They provided insights into their role as the primary host, responsible for introducing and transitioning between segments while real estate agents across the country filled in the narrative gaps. Furthermore, they highlighted the option for agents to appear on the streaming show and spotlight their respective communities. Mariah revealed that they are currently progressing through Episode 11 of Season 1 and are gearing up for the launch of Season 2 in February. In a delightful turn of events, another network, "Your Home TV," approached Mariah with an offer for a reality TV show titled "Make it Happen." This exciting show showcases Mariah's life and business journey and is accessible on various streaming platforms.</p><p>🏢 Mariah's Career Journey in Real Estate<br>Mariah opened up about their career journey, which began with studies in sociology, psychology, and women's studies at the University of Oklahoma. However, they soon realized that pursuing a career in their field would necessitate obtaining a PhD. A fortuitous opportunity in property management, facilitated by connections through their brother, introduced them to the real estate industry. While they found success in this role, they hit a career ceiling and felt unfulfilled. It was a real estate broker who recognized their potential and encouraged them to consider a career in real estate. Initially hesitant due to their mother's experiences in the field, Mariah eventually decided to explore this new opportunity.</p><p>💼 Mariah's Coaching Program Discussion<br>Amy and Mariah engaged in an insightful discussion regarding Mariah's journey in creating a coaching program. Mariah offered insights into their coaching approach, emphasizing a directive style that involves telling people what to do rather than merely guiding them through decision-making. The program is designed to be accessible to the public, with complimentary access for agents affiliated with their brokerage and available for purchase by others. Amy expressed excitement about Mariah's entrepreneurial venture and encouraged them to pursue their passion. The conversation also ventured into Mariah's family life, with a mention of their two young boys and their involvement in soccer.</p><p>👫 Partner Support in Business Success<br>Mariah and Amy shared heartfelt insights into the invaluable support provided by their respective partners in achieving business success. Mariah described how their partner, a retired aeronautical engineer, has played a pivotal role in their accomplishments within the real estate industry. They handle essential behind-the-scenes tasks, enabling Mariah to focus on operational aspects. Amy wholeheartedly agreed on the significance of having a supportive partner, emphasizing that their own partner is consistently available to assist them with their work. Both hosts concurred that having a supportive partner is instrumental in their work and personal lives.</p><p>🔄 Integrating Personal and Professional Life<br>Amy and Mariah candidly explored the intricacies of integrating personal and professional life, particularly in the realm of real estate. Mariah detailed their approach, which hinges on consistency and transparency across all facets of life, facilitating effective role management. They underscored that their focus varies depending on the tasks at hand, opting for a flexible approach rather than rigid time blocking. Mariah also discussed their journey of identifying their niche, ultimately recognizing their unique ability to seamlessly blend diverse roles. Amy emphasized the paramount importance of authenticity and transparency in successfully harmonizing personal and professional life.</p><p>📲 Authenticity in Personal Branding<br>Amy and Mariah delved into the crucial realm of authenticity in personal branding, particularly within the context of social media. Mariah emphasized the intrinsic value of authenticity, stressing the importance of not fixating solely on real estate but embracing the multifaceted dimensions of life beyond the realm of property transactions. Amy concurred, highlighting the contemporary craving for genuine personal connections, particularly in the context of social media interactions. They jointly concluded that establishing oneself as an authoritative figure within their field necessitates a balanced blend of personal and professional content.</p><p>📱 Social Media, Public Recognition, and Success<br>Mariah and Amy exchanged anecdotes and insights concerning their experiences with social media and public recognition. Mariah recounted an encounter at Walmart, where they received appreciation for their authenticity on social media. They also delved into the unique challenges of recognizing people in public, owing to the prevalence of filters and makeup used on social media platforms. Amy commended Mariah for their remarkable achievements in the real estate industry in Oklahoma.

        <![CDATA[<p>Overwhelmed with Clutter? Tune in to hear the Declutter Queen Christina Vigil tell us how we can get out homes organized by getting our minds right! It requires LESS than you think. No fancy bins, no rainbow color asthetics- just a SYSTEM that works!</p><p>In this engaging and enlightening episode of Queens Lead, Amy had a heartwarming conversation with Christina, the owner of Declutter Queen, an organizing service in Oklahoma City. Together, they explored their upcoming project, sharing personal experiences and strategies related to organization and mental health. Christina's inspiring journey of self-discovery and transformation, particularly her battle with ADHD and her remarkable path to finding balance through organization, took center stage. Amy also shared her own experiences with depression and the profound impact of clutter on her mental well-being. The conversation illuminated the importance of setting achievable tasks, establishing routines, and fostering a lifestyle of organization and maintenance.</p><p>Episode Highlights:</p><p>🤝 Project Planning and Collaboration<br>Amy and Christina kicked off their conversation with project planning and collaboration. Amy informed Christina that her episode would be released on February 21st, along with a link to a drive folder containing graphics and reels for social media sharing. They contemplated a collaborative post, which Christina enthusiastically embraced. Christina introduced herself as the owner of Declutter Queen, an organizing service based in Oklahoma City, and shared some personal insights about her family.</p><p>🧠 Christina's ADHD Journey and Transformation<br>Christina embarked on her ADHD journey after spending over two decades in corporate America while raising a family. She candidly disclosed that she was once burdened with a staggering $150,000 in debt and felt disconnected from both her work and family life. Christina's transformation began when she read "Girl, Wash Your Face," a book that prompted her to explore her ADHD and its profound impact on her life. She also discovered the incredible power of organizing, which not only helped her regain balance but also allowed her to reconnect with her surroundings.</p><p>🏡 Organizing Journeys and Life Impacts<br>Christina shared her personal journey of learning to organize and how it radically transformed her life. She embarked on this transformative journey by undergoing therapy and reprogramming her subconscious mind. This path eventually led her to organize her own home and extended to organizing her friends' homes. In November 2022, she took the leap to start her business, aiming to help others organize their lives. However, Christina candidly admitted that she faced challenges on the business side. She emphasized her passion for helping people, particularly those grappling with ADHD, and detailed her daily practice of reading, writing, and applying the knowledge she gains.

She emphasized the importance of self-reflection, releasing negative energy, understanding one's triggers, and practicing forgiveness. Christina also stressed the necessity of identifying and letting go of habits that no longer serve one's higher self. Amy shared her experiences in working through childhood traumas and how these experiences influenced her current behaviors. Both hosts fervently agreed on the significance of self-improvement, with Christina likening it to regular exercise. She emphasized the importance of physical movement in maintaining a higher vibration and overall well-being.</p><p>💡 Mental Health and Living Conditions<br>Amy and Christina engaged in a heartfelt discussion about their personal experiences with mental health and its connection to living conditions. Amy shared her struggle with depression and illuminated how clutter can severely impact one's mental health. She emphasized the importance of support and advocated for a compassionate attitude rather than judgment. Both agreed on the need for organization and adaptability, recognizing that life circumstances are in constant flux. However, Christina cautioned against drastic changes, advocating instead for sustainable organization. She also highlighted the challenge of maintaining organization over time. Amy suggested practical solutions for those dealing with overwhelming feelings or depression, such as using disposable dishes and running the dishwasher multiple times.</p><p>📦 Organizing Home and Grocery With Dewey App<br>Amy and Christina explored their personal organization strategies. Christina shared her experience of kickstarting her journey by organizing her home, beginning with a 30-day challenge focused on her pantry. This initiative gradually extended to her closet and other areas, with Christina implementing a timer system for daily checks and adjustments. She also introduced an app called Dewey, which helped her manage groceries within her family, even involving her children in the process. Christina emphasized the importance of establishing systems, starting small, and gradually expanding them. She did acknowledge that she had to halt the Dewey system due to the overwhelming volume of groceries.</p><p>📆 Task Management and Lifestyle Organization<br>Christina and Amy discussed the significance of breaking down tasks into manageable segments to prevent feelings of overwhelm. They emphasized the importance of maintaining routines, encompassing daily, weekly, and monthly checklists. Both highlighted the significance of taking small steps and making decisions that align with individual values, rather than accumulating unnecessary possessions. The conversation underscored the notion of fostering a lifestyle rooted in organization and maintenance, rather than simply reacting to life's demands.</p><p>🏡 Teaching Self-Efficiency and Self-Reliance<br>Amy and Christina shared their experiences of teaching their children self-sufficiency, such as handling laundry.

Amy expressed concerns about oversharing, potentially distracting from the intended message. Laurie divulged her therapeutic approach, which employs examples and cognitive behavioral therapy to normalize situations, enabling clients to develop strategies for managing anxiety.
