Here's the episode of the Tech Talks series that I've been most excited for! If anyone ever sells you the dream that business is all rainbows and sunshine then you can go ahead and send them this podcast episode 💀 Take it from me, it's not been easy AT ALL.

Burning down one business and starting a new one - it's certainly not the easiest thing in the world, and so this episode of the Tech Talks series is breaking down the pivot.

In this episode, I'm sharing with you: How I changed my mentorship offers to allow Azura to grow The differences for me between 20...

I have a sneaky little suspicion that this episode will be the most listened to of the series 🤭 Yes, it's the one you all wanted - the details behind Azura's launch and how I managed to make it such a success. This was such a fun episode for me to record as a psych girlie and strategist at my core because I leveraged so many of the sales psychology tactics that you've heard me talk about before. And guess what? They actually work (ofc) so I just know you'll want to hear all about them. I'm goin...

We’ve discussed it before on the podcast - so many people think that sales are down, but what I think is really happening is that what you’re selling just isn’t quite right. If your offer is too overwhelming, too wishy-washy and open-ended or just not what people are looking for, they aren’t going to buy! That’s why it’s so important to refine your modules, define an actionable result for your client and stop packing your programs and courses with damn Q&A calls - I said it. 🫢 I love bringi...

Sharing money wins - you either love them or hate them! Some people find them super tacky and icky, but I find when they’re shared with integrity, passion and strategy, it helps to build your credibility and authority, attracts the driver buyer and helps to redefine others’ money mindsets. In today’s episode, I’m going DEEP into why sharing money wins in your business is a hill I will die on - as long as it’s done in an ethical way! To help you do this, I’m sharing my favorite technique (which c...

If you’re currently going through a situation with an unhappy client, the first thing you should know is that you’re not alone! Literally every business owner has experienced it at some point (and if they haven’t yet, they will!). It’s honestly just part of doing business, girly pop. However, that doesn’t mean we have permission to handle the situation badly! Through my mentoring and my own business experiences, I’ve picked up my top five favorite tips (and some goodies for you 👀) that I’m goin...

Girlypop, you’re in for a surprise today! I’ve been keeping a verrry big secret from you and I’m finally ready to share it in this podcast episode. I’ve said it to a few people behind the scenes, but never openly so I’m pretty nervous! I don’t want to spoil anything here, but you should know that it surrounds why my students all say they feel like they’ve never taken a program like mine before and they feel like my mentorship rocks their world. I’m always one to say we should be leading the toug...

When I look back at myself before I broke the barriers and jumped into this different level and perspective on life, on money, on potential in business - I couldn’t fathom how other entrepreneurs and business owners were making crazy amounts of money, like my entire government yearly salary in a day or even in some cases a few minutes and it felt so heavy for me. I knew I wanted what they had but didn’t know how to get there. Now I’ve come through that and succeeded in the same way they did, I c...

Is everyone ready for a spiiicy 🌶️ episode today? Recently, I’ve seen some discussions in the online space around what it means to be “self-led” and honestly, they’ve totally rubbed me the wrong way, as in my experience, what these people have been saying is wrong!

I’m so humbled and honored to be able to say that this year in particular, I’ve mentored so many millionaires and multimillionaires. It’s been so beautiful and I’ve learned a lot, which has led me to compile a list of the top things I’ve noticed about the way they behave, their mindset, how they move in their business and even in their personal lives. So I thought, why not let you into this world and let you know these 10 habits and tips so you can start to shift your perspective and help you ju...

As you can tell from this sales series so far, I LOVE sales and I’m obsessed with geeking out over sales psychology. In today’s episode, I want to take you inside my brain and hopefully open up a new perspective on sales and why you need to work more on sales psychology. If you’re feeling that things just aren’t hitting right now and your buyers aren’t connecting with you, infusing psychology into your marketing and sales techniques is probably exactly what you need to start boosting your income...

I don’t know how it happened, but somehow $10k months became the gold standard in online businesses and is basically everyone’s goal when they started their business. But why? Why girl? Why are you limiting yourself like that?! I can tell you right now that six figure months (not five) are my norm now - and that’s cash, too. It took a lot for me to shift perspective away from glamorizing those $10k months and starting to dream bigger (and then earn bigger too!) and in this episode I want you to ...

We’re back with another sales series episode! Today we’re jumping into modern, new age selling and marketing. If we had a word chosen to describe our marketing, “Icky” is NOT the one we’d want it to be. Sadly, I’ve seen a tonnnn of icky tactics over the last few years and I’m OVER IT. I’m going to be sharing my top 5 icks in this episode, which are things ranging from super coachy, bro marketing tactics, to people just not quite realizing that what they’re doing is putting their buyers off. As s...

I’m thrilled to bring you this mini-series all on SALES! If you know me, I am a sales girlie and sales psychology is my ride or die topic to speak on. I’ve seen the narrative currently floating around online that people are clutching their wallets not wanting to spend money - I’m just not buying it! I made over half a million in sales and over $300k cash in Q1 and let me tell you, it’s not that I’m some unicorn in the industry. I’m not an exception, and nor are my clients who are smashing it out...
