Ep84: Building a Freedom-Based Business Model with John Warrillow

Many people enter into entrepreneurship with the intention of creating more freedom in their lives. Freedom to choose their own schedule, create their own services and products, express themselves as they wish and earn the income they desire. And yet... we often get stuck in a time-for-money business model that deprives us of the freedom we seek.

Ep83: An Introduction to Mind Hacking with Sir John Hargrave

Before I started The Introvert Entrepreneur, I called my coaching business “Intentional Talk.” It was my way of saying “empowering language” which is basically about choosing our words – especially in our self-talk – carefully. So instead of “I should” we say “I want” or instead of “I’m no good at that,” we say “I’m learning to become better.” Our words have power, and nowhere is that more true than the words that originate in our minds. In this episode, we dive a bit deeper into how to shift th...

Ep82: Playing to Your Introvert Strengths with Casey Lightbody

If you've been a listener or blog reader for a while, you might know that I'm not a fan of all this "step outside your comfort zone" stuff. At least, here's what I'm not a fan of: shaming our comfort zones and acting as if they are hotbeds of laziness and stagnation. So that's why I love this conversation with Casey Lightbody of Cloud Marketing Services and the Empowered Women Revolution. She talks about our comfort zone as a place to operate out of, to let our strengths become even stronger. We...

Ep81: The Power of Perserverance: A Conversation with Pat Willmot of Great Pretenders

It’s not every day I get to talk to the leader of a company that has a growing global presence and is in the midst of lots of organizational change. So when Pat Willmot reached out to me about Great Pretenders, I was immediately interested in her story. We talk about the evolution of her journey with Great Pretenders, what it was like in those early years when they had big dreams and little experience, and how they've grown into a company that serves customers worldwide. And of course, we spend ...

Ep80: Yes, And and Beyond: A Conversation with Improv Pioneer Bob Kulhan

Stand up in front of a group. No script. No prep. No rules. This is improv in a way. Its not quite as scary as that, even though that set-up is likely to send many an introvert running in the opposite direction. And in fact, what looks like a completely spontaneous improv situation actually DOES have rules, and there are ways to prepare yourself. Sure, theres no script, but life doesnt have a script, so who needs one? Ive spoken several times over the years about the power of improv and how it c...

Ep79: Keys to a Successful Product Launch with Betsy Talbot

How does a solitude-loving introvert launch a new product? And what if that product is in a new-to-her category that requires vulnerability and high creativity? That's the place Betsy Talbot found herself when she accepted the challenge to write her first romance novel. She committed to not only writing the first novel, but quickly found that she had a series on her hands! I met Betsy about five years ago, just before she left Seattle with her husband to embark on a world traveling adventure. Ev...
