The Classy Career Girl Podcast

Day 3 has arrived. You got this! What are you looking forward to after this quarantine is over? Today is day 3 of our Quarantine Productivity Challenge! We are focusing today on your vision and moving forward with your plan. Our world has been flipped upside down. Our dreams seem so very far away. I know COVID-19 ruined a lot of your plans and it feels impossible to get back on track. So do you have to give up on your dreams and goals? How do you move forward now? Here's what you need to know during this uncertain time. Plans can change. Dreams don't. You cannot give up on your dreams. We may just need to pivot a bit and change your plan. This is what I recommend doing every 90 days anyways. So it's perfect time to re-evaluate your vision and your annual plan right now.  

How many things are on your to-do list today? I am going to take you behind the scenes and share twelve things you can do for success and happiness every day. Note, Disclaimer: I rarely do all 12 of these things. It is difficult to do one of these things every day! But I try, and that is what is important. Some are better than none and I always have a better day when I do some of these. I created my daily habits list after my second daughter was born in  2018. I do not have the quiet or alone time that I used to have. But I try to get as many of things as I can. The days that I get to as many of these habits as possible I am happier. I know doing these things was part of what led to the success of our business and I feel like I am able to balance motherhood better too. If I had not been trying to do these habits, I don’t think I would have been in the right place mentally to actually make my goals happen. So, I believe great daily habits are going to help you reach your goals.

I'm excited to share my career journey with you and take you behind the scenes of how my life and business changed drastically in 2016 after a decision I made. I'll be sharing things I have never shared before and you'll discover how you can go from stressed and struggling to profitable business too!

I know there are a lot of people struggling with finances and their small businesses right now.  I've been there. Not enough cash in the bank. Struggling to pay your bills.  But in 2016, I did something that turned everything around. I did something that allowed me to generate income every single month.  I did something that allowed me to take a 3 month maternity leave from my business without losing a penny. I did something that has allowed me to keep a steady stream of income flowing (and even growing) even during COVID-19. I am so thankful that in 2016, I decided to start a membership site.  Your income doesn't have to suffer right now. You can generate more income this year than ever before.

Finding meaning is the #1 reason that people recently had changed or would like to change their careers. Meaning is being passionate about what you do. Meaning gives you an ability to set priorities to satisfy your needs and desires. Every person may have a different meaning. The first principle of your ideal career fit is purpose and passion. Having a purpose gives you a reason to get out of bed every morning and go to work. It’s the reason you and I are both still alive. If you are unhappy in your work life currently, there is probably something about your purpose that needs to be evaluated either with the purpose of the work you do or the purpose of the company or industry that you are currently in. Once you determine your purpose, use it to help you make an impact and difference in the world, generate your mission statement and find that career you were born to do that no one else on this earth can do but you. This is what will set you apart from the competition. Download the FREE Purpose Guide at classy

Money and your career go hand in hand. If you don’t have loans and a ton of bills, you can make career choices that make you happy. When we got out of debt, then I COULD go part-time.  Then, I could quit my day job because I had 6 months of savings. I could volunteer my time. Today, I can volunteer. You can do the work you were designed to do. The work you were created for. Your calling and purpose. But you CAN’T figure out your ideal career path when you are worried about money and the student loans are out the door. When you aren’t worried about money, you can do things you are happy about.

Today’s episode took me two months to figure out. A little break because 2020 is such a huge year for our business. It’s our 10 year anniversary in March. So we are doing a ton of reflecting and thinking about the next ten years internally. Personally here’s what I’ve been up to I started just being a mom again. I started reading again. One day a week at my parents. One day a week volunteering in my daughter’s school. I started doing all the things I “said” I was going to do when I was so busy last year.  A lot of what got us here won’t get us there. QUESTION: Where were you 10 years ago? Where are we going now?

Today I'm here to tell you when things get hard as an entrepreneur, there is one thing that will keep you going and I'm gonna tell you what that one thing is. I definitely had my share of struggles and difficulties and issues. Starting a business is not super easy to grow business like not everyone can do it right. There's a lot of times work. It's overwhelming. It gets frustrating. Things happen. But there was one thing that just kept me from quitting and that's what I'm going to share in this episode.

Today we're covering how to know what your client really wants. This is something that I think we overlook a little bit of really diving into our client's head in their mind what they're thinking, what keeps them up at night. And we tend to create these posts. This is totally what I used to know. I created these courses that I was excited to create, and I created, you know, these guides and means ebooks and everything that all this knowledge I had in my head. But it wasn't necessarily something that people really needed. So what we want to do today is take a step back of all this stuff, this content creation and everything that we're creating and building and our products and services. But think of the client. We want to, like, put ourselves in the client's shoes today and just really try and get to know them as much as possible. So I'm gonna give you five ways today to know what your claim really wants. I obviously suggest you do all of these.

And if you've ever felt like a fake if you've ever felt like you're not qualified for something. Make sure to listen to this podcast.
