Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Bethany Meadows, on air from January 24th

For business owners who also are also called mom, finding both success and striking the right balance can be challenging. In this episode, we will dive into the insights of an experienced mompreneur and find out the secrets she uses to find success without compromising her focus on family.

Bethany Meadows has been a mompreneur for almost 20 years and understands firsthand about the “juggle” of running a business and raising a family.

In 2008, after going through a divorce and wanting to continue homeschooling her five children, starting her own business seemed like the answer. Using her previous experience as a corporate marketing executive, Bethany founded Vertical Solutions Media, a full-service brand and marketing agency that helps businesses grow and succeed.

Her first book, Getting A Grip: Build A Custom Parenting Plan That Actually Works was published in 2017. In Getting A Grip, Bethany shares her insights on intentional parenting objectives and creating a framework for meeting them.

Now, she is a on mission to help mompreneurs find success and balance in both their business and family. Her newest title The Juggle is REAL! Finding success and balance as a mompreneur gives the reader the benefit of 30 years of brand and marketing experience to help them grow their business. At the same time, she explores how to strike the right balance, remove friction, build a tribe and find parenting success.

Bethany Meadows started Vertical Solutions Media in June of 2008. At the time it was a financial solution for a homeschooling single mom of five children. Relying on her extensive marketing background, Bethany continued to grow the company and today, Vertical Solutions Media is a full-service marketing agency based in Birmingham, Alabama. For over 14 years they have provided marketing consulting and services to dozens of companies in a vast array of industries.

The company’s mission has always been Reinventing Success. This is an acknowledgement that every business owner’s path to success will look different. 

Time to Thrive was created out of a desire to serve those small businesses who find themselves unsure how to take their business to the next level. Becoming stagnant in your business is not an option. It’s your choice whether or not you will THRIVE.

As part of that mission, Bethany launched TimeToThriveMembership.com as a way of helping small business owners level up their sales and marketing skills.

MH23-04. Neville Starick, Sail toward a brighter future.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Neville Starick, on air from January 24th

Cynosure Counselling & Coaching

Helping stressed out professionals get back on an even keel.?Burnout overcomer?Reflective Practitioner?Counselling Therapist?Adult Third Culture Kid.

How do you deal with change?
Does it depend on whether it’s a change you’re contemplating, a change imposed by circumstance, or a change you have chosen?

Regardless, you probably know from experience that not all changes are equal and that some are more challenging than others.

As a Third Culture Kid (TCK), I have experienced significant change from an early age as my family transitioned between and within cultures.
This background has heightened my awareness of not only cultural difference but also my curiosity about the commonality of human experience.
It has also shaped how I see myself and the world, my patterns of response within relationships and systems, and the beliefs and values that guide my decisions as an adult – and how I tend to navigate the changes that I initiate and encounter in both personal and professional life.
The journey of self-awareness development has been an evolving process that has included education, counselling, self-reflection and community support.
As I have grown in my understanding of myself and in making sense of my own life experience, my capacity to empathise with and understand others experiencing significant change has similarly grown.

What does all this have to do with YOUR process of dealing with change?

Significant change can be overwhelming to contemplate and to experience.
It can challenge you to deepen your self-awareness and to grow beyond the things you have understood life to be.
As a qualified and experienced educator, counselling therapist and reflective practitioner, I can offer you the space to look at where you are (personally, professionally or both) and the influences of where you’ve come from in order to navigate effectively towards the future that you would prefer.

BB23-03. Carla Caswell on Emotional Intelligence.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Carla Caswell, on air from January 17th

In a world where the next generation has access to more information than ever before, and the pressure to succeed is ever increasing, how do we adequately prepare them for the dynamics of their upcoming professional journey?

I am passionate about helping students to find meaning in their work by cultivating healthy habits that enable them to build self-awareness, manage expectations and perfectionism, establish boundaries, and create healthy success within their professional environment.

These are skills that I wish I’d been taught before I was thrown into the deep end of corporate life, and without the tools to manage those experiences, I ended up in burn out. And there are countless stories just like mine.

Change starts at the source, so let’s send out emotionally equipped graduates that will thrive in their careers for years to come.

The focus on building the emotional intelligence skills to thrive in your professional life is severely lacking, and the pressure on the youth to lead perfect lives is ever-increasing.

Building a strong foundation of emotional intelligence will pave the way for healthier professional (and personal) engagements, allowing more people to lead purpose-driven lives with passion, integrity, and authenticity. By building self-awareness, creating healthy boundaries, feeling confident to express one’s opinions, embracing failure, and managing internal and external expectations, one can thrive in life, rather than just survive.

The above fundamentals are a key foundation to creating a happy life and preventing burnout.

BB22.52. Anish Majumdar, are you a WAGE-SLAVE?

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Anish Majumdar, on air from December 20th

My why is to free as many deserving people from the quiet hell known as “finding a job” for the rest of their lives. It doesn’t matter what your current job is, or how much you make, or what company you work for: if I took away your job today and you are unable to quickly find something better ON YOUR TERMS…you are not free. You’re just a paid wage slave. And this goes on all the way to the top. 

This is personal for me because years before I became a career coach, i was hustling for my own abundance (and that of my family). And I saw firsthand that what you accomplish or achieve makes LITTLE TO NO difference if the only way for you to get paid is to impress a fear-based recruiter or gatekeeper. 

There is a COMPLETELY different way to do all of this which we were never taught about. 

And once you learn it, you will have the power to stand on your own two feet, write your own professional destiny, and take intelligent risks without fearing the judgment of those who simply do not get you.
