063 - Should you offend people?
28/11/2017 Duration: 19minTanya loves to swear and tell dirty jokes and our podcast, and when she's interacting in her business. This brings up the question of how much we should censor ourselves in our business, in our marketing, and on social media. In this episode we dive into this issue and come to the conclusion that for the most part, the censor button should be shut off. People want to connect with people, so be yourself. Hear Tanya talk about how her business started to really shift in the right direction as soon as she stopped behaving herself.

061 - Stop Hiding and Get Visible
14/11/2017 Duration: 24minIt is so easy to stay hidden, but obscurity is the killer of businesses. You need to get out there, you need to get visible.

048 - The UNIVERSE has your BACK
18/07/2017 Duration: 17minWhat does that mean, the Universe has your back? We discuss what this means, and how it applies to business, and life. The Universe is a concept that can go by a few different names, but the idea is to not dwell on that which we cannot control. Spend your time focusing on what you can control - the present. Take daily action with focus and integrity, and have faith that if you do that, the rest will sort itself out. As the saying goes, "everything happens for a reason." You cannot change yesterday, and you cannot control tomorrow, so focus on today, and watch the Universe take care of you.
