For Women Who Love The F-Word

139: DoNation By Laurus Enterprises Interviews Genecia Alluora

Today's episode is a really special one because I was part of a fundraiser, a charity event in the Philippines. But it's virtual. It's organized by Laura's Enterprises with the support of the world's largest event organizer who brings in Tony Robbins, T Haf Ecker, Robert Kiyosaki Success Resources Private Limited of Singapore. So this event is called Do Nation. Let's do it for the nation. There is a virtual charity learning event and aim to fundraise for front liners and event liners. I'm really blessed to be a part of this. So I hope you enjoy this interview and let me know if you love this episode.

Genecia Alluora’s Story of Bullying

(09:43-11:24) I had to support myself at a very young age since I was 14 years old, and I wasn't able to kind of really build up my self-esteem well. So in school, I wasn't able to buy new clothes, new shoes, and therefore, I was often bullied in school because of my look. Imagine me with really short hair, maybe as short as yours. Rich, you have hair. Okay. So almost very short. And I have very dark eye circles, really bushy eyebrows, very tomboyish because of the way I was being brought up to defend myself, to defend for myself, and not with a lot of money in my pocket. I wasn't able to present myself well, I didn't have a lot of confidence, so I was always the spot where people would bully me. The girls have cornered me at the basketball court. I remember one time, and then they pull over my PE shirt, exposing my bra, and then one of them will actually say, oh, you're wearing the same bra. And I felt totally humiliated. Humiliated. So throughout my years, I was consistently being bullied because of my background, and I lost my self-esteem. In fact, there was one other incident that shook me up that I didn't even want to think about joining a beauty pageant because totally, I lost myself completely. There were times that they took my bag. My bag has holes in them, and they threw it across the classroom floor. And all my books were strewn all across the floor. And at that moment in time, I wanted to commit suicide. I just wanted to die.

Her Journey Towards Joining Beauty Pageant

(11:27-11:50) My self-esteem continued to go downhill. But you see, we are the average of the five people we hang with the most. And sometimes when we don't have coverage, we don't have bravery. We lost ourselves. It's the people around us who will support us and give us that support. And my friends believed in me. My friends saw the potential in me and say Genecia, you should just join a beauty pageant. Just go for it.

(12:03-12:07) And my friends, eventually they enrolled me to join Miss Singapore.

(12:11-12:24) And the best part was, I wasn't groomed. I didn't have a lot of money to buy a pair of heels. In fact, I could only afford one pair of black color heels. But in any beauty pageant, you need to have one black and one silver. And you have to have clothes for multiple events.

(12:35-12:44) So I went to knock on doors, and eventually, I found someone who was willing to give me a sponsorship to teach me how to do public speaking.

(12:46-13:18) Her name was Rebecca. And she gave me all the DVDs, CDs, her notes, and everything possible. She gave it to me. And then she said, can you give me your wallet, your bank? And I was a little bit blurred and naive at the time. Okay. I just passed you my bag, and she took out my wallet, unzip my wallet and pour all the money I have in my wallet. And I'm like, Rebecca, why are you taking all my money? That's all that I have. $60 is all that I have for the month for my food and transport and everything else.

(13:36-13:56) And I told myself since you took all my money, I have no money. Right.

So I better study hard and make sure I do well in my pageant. Right. So eventually I scored really well, and I won Miss Singapore International in 2006 because of Rebecca's teachings,

public speaking, learn how to groom myself. All because I took the first step to commit to my success.

Concept of Value Exchange Pushed her to do well in Pageantry

(16:24-16:57) I think I never really understood the power of value exchange until much later in life. But definitely, when I looked back, I finally understood why she took that $60. There may be very little to some of you, the listeners, audience who's watching this right now, but for me, it was a lot back in those days. So we talked about the value, the proportion of the value that you have right now in your pocket when you give, whether it's 100 pesos or how much you're giving. It's not how much you give, but how much you have that you're actually giving.

Her Message to People who are Struggling.

(20:46-21:21) Don't think that you are alone because there's someone else out there. I totally get you. If you have depression and anxiety, it's time and possible for the journey. Just know that someone has gone before you and someone has overcome before you. So be an Overcomer. Learn to Ask for Help don't feel like you're being judged if you ask for help or if I ask for help means I'm weak, means I'm lousy, means I'm no good. But if I hadn't asked for help, I hadn't had friends who gave me that support. I will not be here today and be able to do more with my life.

(21:23-21:36)So I want to encourage you to really step out of your comfort zone and really ask for help. Don't feel that someone else is judging you. Always know that there is a brighter, lighter hit at the end of the tunnel.

Does and Don'ts in Starting a Business

Don't be an Automatic Expert on Certain Things.

(28:21-28:41) So to really do a cafe business, you need to don't become like a chef, you try to start a restaurant. You hold a camera, you think you're a photographer, you hold an iPhone, you think you're a blogger, you have a website, you think you are a blogger or something like that along the line. So don't think that you know how to be a barista. You can make a cafe.

Don't Do Retail Business in this Covid-19 Season

(28:50-29:14) I would say in this Covid-19 season, don't really start a retail business anymore. I will recommend you to reinvent the idea into a kiosk and then do takeaways, something that is duplicatable, something that is easy. Similar concept to bubble tea. Do something that is easy for people to take away with. I think that would be a better choice.

Get a Franchise

(30:21-30:36)If you were to do a cafe, get a franchise, that is the easiest way to get started, even though it could be a little more pricey. But that investment that you put upfront guarantees you that you have a system and process that's proven and you can make money immediately.

(30:49-30:57) Why? Because the brand is really known in the market and it's easy for people to trust you and know that your coffee is good.

(31:07-31:13) Other than that, the brand actually has a trust factor involved. So definitely that will work in itself.

Build a Team

(31:24-31:44) I think one thing that I found success in the cafe business and I've learned is by having a team, we could put our skillset and strengths together and we are not functioning alone. And because we're not alone, we could easily put the processes together and eventually create something that's worthy of selling.

How did Genecia Maximize her time?

(40:38-41:11) Maximizing my time really means really sticking to my schedule as if I am doing the business as I would do before and after Covid. I think that in itself is a state of mindset where you can't tell yourself, oh, because it's Covid, therefore, I am not going to function the way I am. I'm going to sleep in a little bit more. I'm going to lazy around a little bit more. I mean, you could do exactly just that. But what is your vision? What is your big why? I think that is the question I want to keep reminding myself.

(42:31-43:15) When I maximize my time, I want to always keep my vision in mind, keep that idea of why am I doing what I'm doing? Maximizing time also involves using management tools. I would highly recommend you to check Asana. Asana is a project management tool that is super useful. I have a team of 21 in the Philippines and they are all in Davao and I manage them all on my tools via Skype and Asana. And maximizing my time also means delegating 80% of my to-do list to them. So I only do 20% of my to-do list functioning in my zone of genius.

Why Delegation is Very Important in Maximizing Time?

(48:45-49:35) All you need is just to have $50 for a task that you completely hate to do. Like for example, bookkeeping like, for example, posting on your social media, getting things scheduled and posting things out, things like that can be easily outsourced and delegated for just $50 a week or $50 a month. It doesn't have to be, oh, I have to hire a full-time employee. It can be just a task or two, three tasks bundled together. As long as the person gets things done for you, you can go bit by bit. The two of the biggest mindset blocks for all the entrepreneurs I see, female entrepreneurs alike, is that they have this mindset of I can do better than the virtual assistant, I can do better than my employees.

(49:39-49:44)But the thing is you're forgetting that you could maximize and function in your zone of genius.

(50:04-50:10) And number two, the other block that a lot of entrepreneurs have is that they need to spend a lot of money to do delegating.

Why Investing in Yourself Matters?

(54:07-55:17) I will invest in myself, go for a program that will change and transform either my skill set and then also my mindset. I think the skill set is something that I've learned that nobody can take away from me. I started when I was 14 years old, had to support myself through school as yoga, aerobics, and line dancing instructor because I started when I was 14 teaching classes, being able to move a class of 100, to move a group in a Stadium of 1000, that gave me the skill set, to be able to give instructions whether it's in a small group or big group at a very young age. And that was why I was given the opportunity to work with politicians, CEOs and celebrities. Because of that, I had the advantage over other people when I was doing my business when I was an image consultant and doing my business, and I looked at the whole course on its own. So if I were to only have $1,000, I would do the same. Invest in myself, look at the skill set that is the future that people want.

Why Action is Needed to Reach Your Goals?

(55:26-56:33) One of the greatest swimmers of all time in Singapore, his name is Joseph Schooling. He won an Olympic gold, our very first Singapore Olympic gold just a few years ago. For Joseph Schooling to win an Olympic goal, he had to hire a coach to coach him how to swim in the pool. But did the coach need to jump in the pool to swim? For Joseph Schooling on the day of the Olympics, the answer is no. Joseph Schooling will wake up five to 06:00 a.m. Every single day and swim and worked his ass off to eventually winning the Olympic goals. So even if you invest in yourself to find a skill set that eventually will pay your bills, you must take action to jump into the pool and swim to achieve your Olympic goal. Like Joseph Schooling, the coach and mentor of the course can only guide you through, give you the system, the process that you can take you there because it's proven, but it takes you all your energy, 100% to swim through, to end, to finish line.

Why Genecia’s Mother is the Greatest Woman for her?

(00:59:27-01:00:31) I look at my life now where I am, if not for her, I would not be where I am today. Like, set up pawning her goal to send me for instructor certifications, which I hated her for. Like, why do I need to work at a young age? Why do I need to do this to want to share with you my depression, my committing suicide, going through different relationships in life. And my mom has always been there, even though sometimes as a daughter, we are rebellious, we are running, going through our own course in life. So for me, I think I'm just being human and looking at my mom, I want to honour her. Even up to now, I would say my mom is still the greatest person ever. And I will say whatever I'm doing now is role modelling after her because she's also a leader in the community. She guides other women. She teaches other women how to live a confident, fulfilling, healthy life. And I'm exactly doing the same. Just an online version.

Tips to Embrace our Mothers and Honour Them.

Philosophy and Principles

(01:03:10-01:03:24) I totally disagree with her most of the time. But over the years, I invested myself a lot in personal development, inner healing work. I do so much of that that I realized that choose to be happy, then choose to be right.

Embrace her Indifferences.

(01:03:29-01:04:09) She has gone through her own journey and education and her life experiences. So when she says certain things about you, about your work, about your life, just let her say because she has gone through her journey to be what she is today, there is definitely a generation difference to where we are now. So just be open-hearted and love her and embrace who she is. And that is one thing, one of the biggest lessons that I've learnt, embracing my mother and our differences. And I no longer think that I need to be right. I always choose to be happy and I just listen to her and just smile and not my head, even though I disagree

What drove Her to build the Sole Rich Woman?

(01:05:57-01:06:08) I was trapped in the nine to five red race for about a year because I was already making more working part-time and as an instructor. And I decided that I think nine to five isn't for me.

(01:06:23-01:06:58) I feel that my life has been called for. So I went into image consultancy because my pageant winning Miss Singapore has really opened doors for me. And getting that specification as an image consultant did help me to pass ways to get to know more. I would say more influential people like your network goes to your net worth. So I think that really has helped me tremendously. But I was trading time for money. By work, I get paid, I work, I get paid, I don't work, I don't get paid. So that in itself I struggled and I was looking for a way out to go from offline to online, to bring my business online.

How Mentoring Helps her in Building Soul Rich Woman

(01:06:59-01:07:39) And how can I really make my first million? And that was just what I was thinking. I have never made my million before. I gotta do it myself. How can I get there? I invested in a mentor eventually. And his name is James Wee. He's also my partner in the cafe retail chain. He's also now the partner and the man behind So Rich Woman. So, yes, even though I run Soul Rich Woman, I'm the founder, but he's the man behind looking at all the different strategies and how we are charting out the cash flow and all these things. So it's very important.

What is the Vision of a Soul Rich Woman?

(01:07:40-01:08:22) I went online knowing that I can empower and equip more women to shortcut their success, to own and love the effort, be fabulous, have freedom, financial independence, and above all, family. I don't want women to start going round and round in circles because I feel that there's just so much time wasted when you're just going round and round in circles. There is definitely a way to shortcut your success, to reach your goal in a shorter period of time if you have the right mentor and the right community. Because when a woman changes her life, her entire community benefits. And alone, you are strong. But together we are unstoppable.

What is the Most Important Lesson she learned in Life? How will she Influence people through it?

(01:09:34-01:10:10) One of the biggest lessons I learned in life is never to give up. And if I were to win Miss Universe, I would actually use this motivational skill set that I have to actually get everyone who's been in touch with me one light at a time to tell them that the sky's the limit and there's no storm that you cannot conquer Never give up only as you're willing to step out of your comfort zone no dream that you cannot achieve in your life because alone we are strong together we are unstoppable.

What advice would you give to youngsters?

(01:16:46-01:16:51) Believe in yourself. Be confident. Stay true to your soul, to your heart.

What advice would you give to people struggling with this Pandemic?

(01:21:40-01:21:54) Remember, quit thinking, start doing and never give up on your dreams. Even Covid-19 has happened. Life definitely must go on. Find a mentor and stay connected.

(01:22:12-01:22:43) People are having issues, and they feel that they're alone. So don't feel that you're alone. I just want to just call out to you right now if you're feeling alone, just know that we have resources available for you. And as we do this as a nation together to support our front liners in the Philippines, we also would like you to lend your hand, hundred pesos to get started, to make a donation so that we can do more with our effort together because alone we are strong, together we are unstoppable.

Key Takeaways:

It's not how much you give, but how much actually give.
Be an Overcomer.
Learn to ask for help.
Never give up.
Believe in yourself.

138: How To Use My 3 Best Money Affirmations To Change Your Life

Now, today I want to talk about how to use my three best money affirmations to change your life. I know that money affirmations can get a little bit iffy for some of you, but you know that I absolutely love a good affirmation because I think they really have a powerful impact on your life and business, and it can be as powerful as reading a book or taking a course.

How does affirmation work?

(01:54-02:13) Affirmations are a huge part of how I have manifested my life and business, and I always recommend them as a great starting point if you are looking to upgrade your life or to have more belief in yourself, to own and love the F word.

(02:51-03:13) There are specific affirmations for specific situations. Okay, so there are three best affirmations that I have that can help you shift you from feeling negative and frustrated to feeling really good about yourself. Abundant and deserving really quickly.

How Can Affirmations Impact Your Money Mindset?

(03:15-03:38) Let's do it. So how Affirmations Can Impact Your Money Mindset? First and foremost, affirmations are positive brain training statements that help you shift your focus from the negative, where a lot of us spend our time and shift it to the positive.

(03:45-04:03) Scientifically activate our reticular activating system in our brain that's like a light tower shining brightly, showing a signal outwards so that the good stuff will come to you that you want.

(05:24-05:55) If you don't pattern interrupt these negative thoughts patterns, you will probably create a downward spiral that manifests more frustration, lack, and negativity. When you're feeling absolutely crap about yourself or feeling absolutely lousy, you often miss out on opportunities. You talk yourself out of taking action, and then you get stuck in the same position of procrastination.

(06:03-06:14) Negative self-talk is one of the biggest sabotaging patterns I've seen—people who aren't living their ideal life the life of the F word.

My signature affirmation

(06:38-07:06) So my signature affirmation is that if you use an affirmation like my signature affirmation, you will say, "I love myself, and I set myself free." "This is my time, and I'm ready for the next step." This immediately gives your brain something really positive to focus on instead of those annoying, stupid negative patterns.

(07:07-07:22) Now, this particular affirmation sends the message that you are ready even before you are really ready. And that is only the step that needs to happen. So it becomes less scary.

(07:54-08:32) So when you train your brain to look for the positive, you automatically start to feel better and act in different ways. You might feel more motivated to take action, even a small one. And it has a knock-on effect to create positive outcomes too. So if you use affirmations. Whenever you notice the negative thoughts come into play, you successfully patent interrupt the downward spiral of your mood, of your thoughts before it causes drama in your life.

Affirmation 1: My face is my fortune

(09:09-09:27) This is for you. Entrepreneurs out there or budding entrepreneurs. Okay, aspiring entrepreneurs. Whether you're thinking about starting a bakery, starting your own site, hustle, even though you're not the five employees, or even though you're in a full-time business, hey, it's for you.

(09:28-09:35) Don't hide. For your customers to connect with you, you need to be seen.

(09:54-10:21) So, the way to differentiate yourself in a crowded marketplace is to be you unapologetically. Yes, Darling, yes. Even at your current weight, current size, current skin, current colour. Even though you think you're not ready. And even if you worry you're not good enough.

(11:03-11:13) So six of my favourite ways to get visible. Get some new photoshoots done before you're ready.

(11:24-11:38) Number two, use your face on your branding. Even if you're a product business or live stream business, eCommerce business, give yourself permission to be seen as a real-life model of what you do.

(11:52-11:59) Number three, if you make things, show the behind-the-scenes of your workspace and how you create your work.

(12:07-12:19) Number four, this also helps you to charge well for what you do because your audience starts to appreciate the work that goes into your product.

(12:20-12:34) Number five, be brave to show a mix of photos, the glam up ones versus the real-life ones. You’ll be surprised what your audience or the people resonate with.

(12:55-13:11) Lastly, get on the camera either with live streaming interviews or prerecorded videos so that your audience can connect with you. Do what feels comfortable, Darling, but basically show up and show yourself.

Affirmation 2: I serve. I deserve.

(13:41-13:50) The word deserve means that when you serve through your programs, your products or your services, you deserve to be rich.

(13:59-14:08) So when I first started using this affirmation, it completely changed the way I felt about my impact on the world and my ability to receive abundance in return. I used to feel really horrible and terrible that I couldn't help everyone and would constantly feel guilty.

(15:44-16:04) The truth is that when you have a business, you could work 24/7 and still not feel like you are doing enough. There's no off time or clock off time for most of us. So how do you deal with it now? Think of all the ways you serve people.

(18:28-18:37) You deserve to be rich when you serve, or you make an impact on people's lives or add value to other people's lives.

(18:39-19:12) This affirmation will remind you of all the ways to help people, but it also helps you to remember that you don't have to serve in all ways or be everything to everyone you already served. Use this affirmation as your reminder that it's okay to receive good things doing what you do. You are entitled to receive abundance in your life from serving people, including money.

(19:17-19:28) So remember this. I serve. I deserve. I deserve to be rich when I add value to other people's lives.

Affirmation 3: This is what a soul rich woman looks like!

(19:50-20:06) Now, this one will change your life. When you think about the stereotypical rich woman wealthy person, what do you think they will look like, sound like or dress like?

(20:26-20:57) Surely a rich woman has to have a mess. Chanel and all the big fancy brands and fancy outfits all the time, right? Go look in the mirror and say this affirmation to yourself. Point to your face and say this. “This is what a soul rich woman looks like.!”

(22:56-23:24) Then you will interrupt the pattern and remind yourself that you can be as a soul rich woman, as rich as you want to be, as much so rich as you want to be, as you love to be, as much wealthy as you want to be. And you can be as wealthy as you like, you start to believe that it's possible for you to be exactly how you are now.

Which affirmation will you use today?

(23:06-24:00) So which affirmation will you use today? Using Affirmations takes a bit of effort to remember. But if you can get into the habit, you'll see huge results in a very short time. Remember, you get what you focus on. So training your brain to focus on the positive really boost your manifesting efforts. Now, if you need some help starting to work on your money mindset, I have a ton of resources to help you. I have helped thousands of entrepreneurs break through their F-Word.

Key Takeaways:

Affirmations are a huge part of how I have manifested my life and business.
Negative self-talk is one of the biggest sabotaging patterns for yourself.
Don't hide - Your customer needs to see you.
You deserve to be rich when you serve.
A soul rich woman has to have a mess.

The Shadow Effect: Illuminating the Hidden Power of Your True Self
In this groundbreaking exploration, three New York Times bestselling authors—Debbie Ford (The Dark Side of the Light Chasers, Why Good People Do Bad Things), Marianne Williamson (The Age of Miracles, A Return to Love), and Deepak Chopra (Jesus: A Story of Enlightenment)—deliver a comprehensive and practical guide to harnessing the power of our dark side.

Deepak Chopra, Debbie Ford, and Marianne Williamson —New York Times bestselling authors and internationally acclaimed teachers—have joined together to share their knowledge on one of the most crucial obstacles to happiness we face—the shadow. These three luminaries, each with a signature approach, bring to light the parts of ourselves we deny but that still direct our life. For it is only when we embrace our shadow that we discover the gifts of our authentic nature.

The shadow exists within all of us. It is a part of us and yet we spend most of our life running from it. But far from being scary, our dark side holds the promise of a better, more fulfilling life. Our shadow makes itself known every day. It is the reason we get furious over a friend showing up ten minutes late, yell at our parents or kids when they have done nothing wrong, and sabotage our own success at the worst possible time. Until we are able to embrace our dualistic nature, we will continue to hurt ourselves and those closest to us and fall short of our potential.

Combining the wisdom of three experts, The Shadow Effect is a practical and profound guide to discovering the gifts of our shadow. These three authors powerfully pierce the veil of our unclaimed self, releasing us from the past and propelling us on a journey to wholeness. No longer living a half life, we are capable of achieving our dreams and reclaiming the happiness that is our birthright.

132: Keep What You Earn

(01:08-1:46) Now on this episode, I have completed an interview with Shannon Winston of Keep What You Earn podcast show, and I would like to share with you the interview done because in this show I talked about secrets of manifesting money quickly. Creating abundance in your life is not just the only ingredient to your financial success or to own your effort. You too, need another secret ingredient to own that level of success.

Turning Mess into Message
(04:29-04:54) I told my mom about all the different bullying situations that happened to me in school, and she told me this, turn your mess into your message now, even though I don't really get it at that point in time. But my tenacity and grit and determination grew because my mother was my source of mental and wellness and emotional support. And I persevered. And that's how I move forward.

Entrepreneur Rat Race
(05:48-06:38) But you see, it came to a point where I couldn't move anymore because I was stuck. I don't want to be a trainer of my life in terms of, like, I get paid, I work, I get paid, I don't work, I don't get paid. So I kind of have a quarter-life crisis at that point and ask myself this question, what am I going to do with my life? Am I going to be a slave to entrepreneurship? Now? I coined this term. A lot of people say it's the Rat Race. I call this the Entrepreneur Rat Race, which means you thought that you're an entrepreneur. You don't value your own time. You expect to be paid when you're a full-time job. But when you become an entrepreneur, you don't expect to be paid. You don't value your time. How do you spend your time every single day?

Key Driver’s to Mindset Shift
(07:34-07:48) The key thing that shifted my mindset was the desire to change and the awareness of it. So having the awareness and desire to change, I put myself through causes. I think skill set is something that it cannot be removed from us.

Gratification that most Woman Have
Rewarding Yourself
(09:18-09:44) A lot of women said I want financial freedom. I want financial independence. And, yes, we can give you the sense. That's why we give you the help. And it's done. Once they hit their 10K month or 20K month and then scaling upwards, I'm like, hey, what do you do with your money? Oh, I bought a Chanel bag. I bought this brand. I bought the wallet I've been eyeing for a long time. It's a childhood dream.

(09:48-10:07) It's wonderful to reward yourself versus when you make the money and then you are not managing the money. You achieve that financial independence you achieve to a certain extent. You are just getting started. But if you're not managing it your financial independence could be entirely lost.

Spending For Family
(10:42-11:11) Family is important, but that bloodline. Or I call it the cash flow of business. It is that flow that keeps the entire business going. What if a client delays paying you? What if you needed extra emergency funds for whatever purposes, extra marketing dollars to get a few. Just maybe two more clients to get that going. So I think that will be delay gratification.

How to protect your Financial Independence?
(10:08-10:27) So this is one thing that I always advise women to do. Always pay yourself first. I think that's very important and use whatever that has been. I would say segmented out to pay yourself first and then use that to apportion out whatever you want to buy eventually delay gratification.

(11:13-11:37) Something I will feel very practical is if you really want something that badly for yourself or for your family, why not get two more clients? I always suggest to my coaching clients would be like, find two more person who will pay for that. So you keep a base set of clients for the retainer fee or whatever that you've made. Invest back and then maybe get two more so that you can extra buffer for the item that you always wanted.

Build a Team
(12:28-12:46) Find a peer group like a Mastermind 3,4,5 of you. It doesn't have to be big, like a community. No, just a small group where you stay accountable, where you are supportive of each other. And there's no judgment in that group.

Tips on Money Management.
Hire a CFO or Chief financial officer.
(13:44-13:53) you're not a person who can keep the money, hire CFO, and that was exactly what I did. I hire somebody and control my money to take care and handle for me.

Get a Mentor
(13:55-14:00) Really get a mentor who really guides you. What to do?

Repeat one and two
(14:06:14:25) Because we are entrepreneurs, we don't really listen. We have our own opinions. We have our own mindset, how we should spend our money. I would say, if you want to hire somebody, engage somebody, believe in them, fully empower them fully. And really, I would say, don't be the bottleneck of your business.

Put your Goals in front of You
(15:03-15:26) Put your goals in front of you because out of sight, out of mind. So that's how I work with my clients and myself. I put my goals. Let's say something we want to buy or we want to hire somebody. At this rate, we put our goals down very clearly and on the board so that we will not when we have the budget.

What does Being Online Really Mean?

(18:17-18:47) What online and really being there and present really means will be how are you showing up for your clients and people you serve every single day? Now there's a difference if you only serve a client by showing up once a week versus someone who is newer than you in the marketing game or online game who's showing up two to three times a day every single day for the next 365 days.

(19:05-19:18) If you're going to put in only 4 hours a week versus someone who puts in 16 hours a day hustling to get things off the ground and make sure they are seen and heard, then that will make a lot of difference.

How to Create your Personal Brand and Stand Out?

(20:52-21:37) Create your own. I would say your own ocean your own area instead of going to a space and be number two, be rather your own category. King of category Queen. I think that would be key. Like for myself as sole rich women's founder, I'm not just a female entrepreneur network that does the usual business stuff. We are very call focused on helping women to go from offline to online to own the F-word. Now how do we do that's later on. But the messaging out there to the world is such so niche that when people think about I want to go online, I will think about Soul Rich Women,

(21:47-22:08) So be very distinct on how you're serving your people. And that would be the question you need to ask yourself, which is what is the one problem that I can solve for my customers immediately right now so that in future and moving forward, they will pay me for my advice and for my service.

Missing Out is part of Making Progress

(22:35-23:40) The formal factor, the fear of missing out is huge. And I acknowledge that I will not say, oh, it's not there. It is. There. So the way in one key way I always get them to overcome is think about like an octopus. I don't know if you know, octopus. Octopus has eight Lakes. So think about you are building your business like an octopus. First, build one Lake until the Lake is successful most of the second Lake and then the third Lake, and then the fourth League. If I put it into a sports metaphor, it will be the golf go to a golf course. You need to hit the first, then a second, and then your third, and then to the last hole right there is a progression in everything. So don't deny the fear of missing out. Accept it. Acknowledge it. Say thank you very much for being there for me. And I just want you to get out of the door right now because I want to establish my key foundation so strong. My first Lake, my first hole, and I'm going to move through it until I'm so good at it.

Message to Entrepreneurs Struggling to See their Worth.

(24:33-24:50) Find five people who say and think that you are good in whatever area that you have probably helped them before because we lose confidence in ourselves. In the midst of all this online mayhem, we lose ourselves all the shiny star syndrome.

(25:05-25:32) So find five friends or five businesses. I would say peer to peer support in the community that you are in and get them to say something and recognize something that is good in you or you're really good with from. Establish a confidence once again in that specific area because they don't get paid by saying what's good about you or what you have shown up for them. Right? So, hey, that's something to get started with.

Switching Negative to Positive.

(26:25-26:27) We often as female entrepreneurs. We beat ourselves over little things that happen, clients not paying you on time, and then you bling or something. Am I that bad? And then when clients say something, am I really so lousy? There's nothing positive that you turn around? It's always the first instinct of the negative. So I think that reading something positive or have people around you who gave you the positive environment really will help you through. Remember, alone. You are strong together. We are unstoppable.

Delegation as the New Success.

(27:45-28:52) In fact, it was during my cafe chain business because even though I had the money, I had the business, I had everything that I have, I didn't feel as contented. I felt that something was missing. I was not doing what I was called for. And therefore, when I exited the business with my partners, I was like, oh, we've got to exit the public listed company. Right. So we exited the I say, hey, this is it. We're going to do something about it. So that was something that I wanted to move and to shortcut women's success. I would say that to help them to get the opportunities that they would have never thought of, to have it easier than me because I lend them my giant platform my giant shoulders and let them leap off to the next phase of your life. Because success is never about glorious wins. Like you said, never about the ego, never about the wins. But it's about how you can take a step back and let other people shine as well.

Key Takeaways:

Desire to change and the awareness of it
Turning Mess into Message
Delegation as the New Success
Find a peer group
Get a Mentor

131: 10X Your Financial Independence by Building A Business and Brand That YOU LOVE

Today, I'm going to share with you how we launch 1000 episodes for our clients to achieve listeners in 60 countries combined and go from local to international in just five months, how our clients generated leads and sales of five figures of podcasting and how I built a six-figure podcasting business in just six months as an additional source of income to my business

Three Secrets to Succeed in Personal Branding

(01:41-01:51) 1. Discover how to turn your passion to serve to position yourself as an expert, including my simple tips to test to see if it will work.

(01:54-02:02) 2. Learn the key ingredients in my secret sauce that takes your personal brand from overlooked to overbooked and help my clients to earn five-figure and six-figures without running any

(02:10-02:29) 3. Look at how we built our business and brand using podcasting with an exact system so we can get leads and clients even when you are asleep and how you too can do it even if you aren't a tech expert or hate being saucy or pushy.

Take the Right Step on the First Day

(05:23-05:54) Practice makes perfect, but if you touch your heart, you practice the wrong thing. You make the wrong thing perfect. And that's not the result that we want for you. The result we want for you tonight is to take the right step the first day, so make the success habits the first step and then you go over it and then you own it. When you bring your business online the right way, that is going to make a huge impact on your life.

Be Authentic, Be Yourself

(06:02-06:23) To be successful. You don't have to change to be who you are. You have to be more of who you are so that people can notice you because you're authentic because you're real because you are you because nobody can replace you. Turn your talent into your business. Turn your passion into a paycheck by being you by being you and only you.

Five Key Mindset to be a Podcaster.

(14:31-14:45) Having a podcast show is not just calling yourself, okay, I'm a podcaster, and that's it. It's how your mindset towards being a podcaster is or having a podcast is that will transform your business and build a brand around podcasting.

(14:46-15:04) So number one, it instantly changes your status. Number two, it makes you an instant authority. Number three, it gets you speaking engagements. Number four, it has a high perceived value. Number five, you can build trust before selling.

(15:04-15:36) So these are the five key mindset pieces that you must have if you are looking to build a brand and business around podcasting, because if you don't have a belief that it instantly changes your status, that it instantly makes you an authority, that it gets you or possibly speaking engagements is high perceived value, or you can build trust before selling. That in itself will make a huge difference in how you approach matters on hand.

How do these Five Mindset Change the way you handle Social Media?

(16:56-17:13) Remember, the five key beliefs that you must have instantly changed the status it can get you speaking engagements is high perceived value. It can build trust before selling and instantly changes your status and instant authority. So when you have these in mind, then you approach social media differently

Be The Star in your Podcast Show

(16:13-16:55) So when you have a podcast, how do you approach this? You must become the star of your show. You cannot just hide and think that okay, I'm a podcaster. I hide behind that episode cover. I hide behind in that name. No, you got to get out there. So overall, this is what we call this Soul rich women blueprints. And I use this podcasting blueprint technique called Soul Rich Woman Blueprint to help my clients to be seen and to be heard online. Now, when you are the star, you can build your norm-like-trust core. Now, norm-like-trust core is very important, especially when you have a podcast.

Consistency is a Must in Podcasting

(17:28-17:53) The key thing of why we are successful and how our clients got five-figure sales and being seen as a leader was because they were really over consistent

Now consistency seems very elusive when you're looking at stuff. I want to share with you this when you look at consistency, it's not a one-day thing. It's not one day, two days, three weeks.

(21:31-21:45) So three things you must have a schedule of consistency. Number two, you really need to engage with your audience when they comment, you must reply to them. Last, but not least really have a targeted message to talk to them.

Secrets in Podcasting Effectively.

1. Consistency and Batching.

(22:18-22:28) In our platform, we help our podcasters to do four days of recording and to launch one year's worth of content. You can actually do four days of recording to develop one year of content, and we have a template for that.

(22:45-22:47) We have a template. We have a process for that to help them to achieve that

2. Glowing and Leading

Glowing with your Podcast

(22:50-23:18)Look into how you're glowing and leading. Now I want to share with you two beautiful main dream characters or Chinese characters. Now, a lot of people when they start a podcast, will think I'm a leader, right? But I would like to think of it as you are glowing with your podcast shows. The glow, the essence that attracts people to you will be your title, your podcast cover, which later on I will share with you a little bit more.

(25:26-25:36) So just by a slight tweak in the imaging in the way, who you want to target, who you want to speak to and how you want to be memorable to the people that you're talking to will determine how you will look on your podcast cover how you approach your podcasting so if you want to look at this by map.

Be the Leader in your content

(23:19- 23:28) Being a leader in your content. What exactly are you speaking about? So you need to be a charismatic leader. You need to find your own mastery.

(25:42- 25:56) When you have a belief that you can be the instant authority, you can be the leader, you change your status, you have hyper seal value, it can develop into a business. And that is what exactly we did for our podcasters.

3. Find Your Niche

(23:52-24:15)What exactly are you talking to? Who are you targeting? And how can you be memorable to your audience? And this is key, so just a quick few before and after to help you. Dr. John Tan is the Executive care director of Care Singapore and he's also the President of the Youth Work Association. So that was the podcast cover before the image that he was using. But because he speaks to youth when he launches the podcast, he wants to talk to youth. So choosing the right image that speaks to the target audience is important.

4. Building Small Agreements

(26:28-26:33) You must have small agreements. Don't think in just one podcast episode it will close sales.

(26:59-27:29) Just by building up her podcasting on her social media and posting on a fixed schedule, being consistent out there and then engaging with the audience. We also helped Joanne to build her digital products as well. And because people listen to a podcast show, people sign up for her five-figure program as well without any ads. And this was within months as well, within a month. Okay. So if she can do it, so can you.

5. Being Memorable

(34:45-35:20) Set aside time. Two days, four days is all you need. If you're doing micro podcasting to batch on entire years of content, the second secret is all about being memorable. Being memorable. If you are not memorable, you are forgettable. People, it takes only 7 seconds to remember you online, 7 seconds. And then if you are not memorable, your podcast cover is ugly. You are not catchy. You're not personable. People will forget you because in the online space people you just want people to stop the finger.

6. Do More with Less

(35:50-36:25) Do more with less, work on leverage. Now, leverage is important because if you have to believe and you know for sure that your podcast is going to be amazing, really see it and market. A lot of people are what we call they are just holding back. How am I going to say this? It's like you're just oh, I got a podcast, but nobody knows they have a podcast if you don't market it right. Marketing is really key and it's really essential, and you're ready to position yourself there.

Key Takeaways:

Be the star of your podcast show.
Be more of who you are.
Find your own mastery.
Building Small Agreements.
Do More with Less.

130: Build A Business And Life You Love

In today's sharing, I have an interview that was done with the Philippines, the CEO of VIP International, Richard Paredes. So he has interviewed me and I love to share with you this season of this episode. I think there are a lot of great nuggets for you to pick up on the stuff that matters to you the most.

Why do we need to value our clients?

(09:02-09:21) Every single Wednesday at 09:00 p.m. Sharp, I show up consistently rain or shine. So by doing so, I built up from zero, nobody attended my webinar. I have crickets, cockroaches and butterflies attending my webinar, right? Nobody else was there.

(09:46-09:51) I think it's all about giving value and being consistent to show that you are there.

(10:04- 10:45) So value is something that people don't really get it. They think by just going on a Facebook life, they just share and sell something on intellectual. I mean, that's great. But what is real value is that someone takes away something. If I can give you one or two AHA moments on the show, that is value. And that is why when I'm now launching my Make It Happen campaign for my book and my podcast show, I'm giving value to anyone today who wants to get onto my show three to five minutes. I'm going to promote you.

Why is giving value is important?

(11:01- 11:15) So what is value? So if you really want to help somebody, you know what? Don't sell, give value first. If they know, like, and trust you, they'll love you, they'll respect you.

(11:38- 11:49) So giving value, Rich, is just like what you're doing, really providing them know, like, trust goal so that they build a relationship with you.

(12:24-12:43)So I'm letting people tap onto our big giant shoulders to leap off, at least have an opportunity. You see, success is not about glorious wins, it's never about that. It's about taking a step back and letting other people shine as well.

Don’t Be Afraid to Start from Zero

(15:21-16;05) But if you think about it, yeah. Before, Gary Vaynerchuk him, Gary Vaynerchuk. He started wine TV, wine library or wine TV. And that has nobody watching it. Robert Kiyosaki started somewhere. Nobody even know about him until he started teaching and doing the board game. Right. So we all started from zero. And when we look at the successes of people, like, when people look at you, Rich people are like, oh, Rich is so amazing. You do your own show, you got this, we got that. And then they're. They're like, oh, but I can never be like Rich. But you know what? You just need to take a baby step.

The 3 P’s by Genecia

Prioritize

(16:12-16;30) Where is your dream? What is your goal? prioritize. If your dream is to be seen and to be heard as a leader, you want to be a leader in the agency, in your organization, on the online platform, whatever that may be, you have to prioritize.

Push Yourself

(16:34-16:46) Get yourself with a network of like-minded, people, right? because like, attract like-minded people and then you get support and then people push you along, cheerleading you.

Prepare to Launch

(16:53-17:24) Too many of you prepare but never launch. How many of you think about launching that podcast that Facebook live, that business that you want to do, the early-stage entrepreneurship that you always wanted to start to make money online. You're thinking you're always preparing, researching and preparing. Hope that one day when the time is right, TADA, you think that the fairy godmother is going to come down and bring a magic one and wave a magic one like Cinderella.

(17:45-17:47) Don't just prepare, prepare and launch it.

The power is in our hands.

(19:07-19:37) We have the power in our hands. And if you get out of the comfort zone, stop being a victim. Blaming the COVID, blaming the lockdown, blaming another person. If you take that power again, you know what? You can dream. You can make money online. You can have a side hustle that you always wanted to do. That's right, because it's never about the resources, it's always about the resourcefulness.

(30:01-30:50) If you are thinking, oh, life sucks. Life is lousy. That person's fault, and you stay in that box and you choose to stay in that box. Every single day, we talk about 21 days to build an amazing habit. Can you imagine it's only 21 days and you can't even keep doing it? And you have done the years of your life, 20 years of your life, 30 years of your life, 40 years of your life complaining. How are the 21 days going to transform into it 30 years, 20 years and 40 years of your life? Unless you choose to when you choose, you know what? You don't have to change who you are. But you must be willing to learn and grow your mindset.

Take a Different Perspective

(35:48-38:58) If you are not doing very well in this time of covid or having a lockdown, take a different perspective. What do your clients or potential audience need?

(34:39-34:47) So I've got this image consultant-client she's charging about. She's shown to sell a $3,000 package to engineers.

(35:26-35:06) Most engineers are behind the scenes behind-the-scenes. And the fact is, she couldn't sell her packages at all through the sum of the crickets literally zero. So when she came to me and I told her, I said, Why don't you consider changing a perspective, taking another perspective of what your audience needs? So after much brainstorming, I said, why not you sell them or promote to them how to look good on dates? Because most engineers are really nerdy. I'm just saying, generally they are nerds, but I believe they're really handsome engineers out there as well.

(36:11-36:22) But they don't have time for dates. Why don't you teach them how to look good on a first date? How do you do your social etiquette for the first date or the subsequent date?

(36:23-36:36) With the same pricing, she took a different perspective of their package. We looked at the client they're targeting, and guess what? She sold like hotcakes. The package is sold like hotcakes.

Importance of Knowing Your Market

(39:43-40:36)

Sell to everybody. Sell to nobody. Speak to one. Speak to many. So if you think about it, if I could give you a hard moment today about who your target market should be, then I want you to hop on the movement of making it happen because helping you to see a perspective overcoming a challenge of identifying your fishes is important for me, especially now when everyone is going online and the funny part is Rich, they are thinking I want a salmon head, a body of a shark, a tail of a dolphin. It's not possible. The fish is dead. The fish is already dead. By the time you chop them up and then put the jigsaw puzzle together.

(41:24-42:03) You have to just keep changing and moulding yourself into your customer's needs. Why not just be who you are. Be who you really are. Be authentic and tell yourself, who do you want to serve and then go to the next. Love your customers more than you love your product.

Take all Excuses out and Ask For Help

(54:52-55:15) But first, you need to get all of your excuses out of the sofa, of excuses, out of the couch of excuses. I went out to look for people who could help me ask for help. We agents are so unwilling to ask for help. Do we look weak when we ask for help? Well, to a lot of people, we look weak. But I want to encourage you today. Take courage to ask for help.

Take Courage to Be Who you are

(55:46-56:19) Take courage. I really want those of you who are watching this right now. You're not here by chance. Especially now. It's life. You're not here by chance. You have this intuition that you are here today supporting Rich on VIP TV to be here on this show. There must be a reason why you need to hear this right now. Remember, you don't have to change who you are. You can go from stuck to unstoppable without changing who you are and allowing that diamond to shine.

The Art of Delegation

(01:02:56-01:03:53) You need to learn the art of delegation. My mentor told me that if you want to scale your business or grow your business, you can't be a solo premiere all the time. I don't want to be a bottleneck of my own business. So when he highlighted to me that if I want to be the bottleneck, then I can just do everything myself because I am the best at doing everything myself and the best person I can finish doing the task in the shortest possible time and then I have no time, no freedom and I work as a slave myself. I really am a slave to my business. I mean, what is the reason you guys are out there doing entrepreneurship or making money online? What are the purpose and reason? Right. But you must be willing to work hard in the beginning and then find some ways to outsource 5 hours of your time just a week or a month.

(01:03:59-01:04:30) Ask someone else to do it for you, even for the women out there. Even babysitting, give yourself time for yourself. It's also outsourcing and delegating through. So by having this mindset of being able to let go and empower someone to do the work, even though they may not do as well as you. But think about it. With the extra 5 hours of your time, you could be making more money and this is a rich person mindset. A rich mindset.

The ASC Method in Communication

(01:09:43-01:10:37) Social media marketing. There are so many different parts to it. And whether is it Facebook, Facebook Page, your profile. Is it for Instagram? There are so many different ways to do that same thing called social media marketing. So I think we really need to be specific in our communication. And I always will use the ASC method, which accelerates your communication. Be authentic, C for clarifying without hesitation. So apply the ASC format. Okay. Really consistently clarify, clarify and clarify without hesitation. We'll help you to communicate better with your team and build your business and make money online without reinventing the wheel over and over again.

(01:13:44-01:14:20) Opportunity presents itself. But of course, like what we always see when the student is ready, the master will appear. Not the master has appeared. But will you be the student tonight? Today, tomorrow? By clicking on the link by submitting your voice recording three to five minutes to be on a podcast show. That it's international. That's going to bring your business, your brand, your leadership up one notch. Ten knots. Are you willing to take a step forward to make money online?

(01:17:22-01:17:34) But are you willing to take the step, or do you want to continue to be where you are now, but to be where you are now, to where you want to need to start

(01:17:35-01:18:04 Because every day, if you do a 1% improvement to be a different version of you, the other word I never say better. I say different. 1% just 1%. It's all you need every single day. And imagine that 1% is just three to five minutes. By the end of 365 days, you will have 365% of a different version of yourself, which means you go to the next.

Key Takeaways:

Be Resourceful.
It’s OK to start from Zero.
Take a Different Perspective.
Sell to everybody, Sell to nobody.
Prioritize, Push Yourself, Prepare to Launch.

Episode129: Money And Me

Hello, gorgeous. Welcome to this episode. Now, this was a presentation that I did and I shared about money and me, money and you and I would like you to transform your business and your life with these few concepts that I'm about to share in the presentation.

Value your time, you value yourself.

(03:50-04:18) How much is your time worth per hour? How much is your time worth per hour? Now, that's very important, because if you view the value of money, sometimes it's tight to your time, how you value your time and what you're doing every single 24 hours a day. So the way you spend your time is the way you value yourself. And it's the way that you can grow your abundance and manifest more money or abundance into your life.

What is Soul Rich Woman’s vision?

(08:26-09:21) Life was more than just making money. Life was more than just whatever that I'm doing right now because I have no business background and I moved into building a legacy business that I call Soul Rich Woman. So this Soul Rich Woman, let me just share with you why I call it Soul Rich Woman. I believe that women or people and generally for myself, I feel that women should have the soul. They have a soul, once you have the soul, you have a soul, you can develop abundance in any way you want. So with the soul, that's how you develop and you evolve as a person and bear for the fruits of whatever they are doing. And that is the definition of Soul Rich Woman. And it ties in with the F word, fabulous, freedom, financial independence and happy family. And that defines not a person but how you value, at which point in your life.

Beliefs that help Genecia break through hardships in life.
1. You deserve to be rich when you give value to others.

(10:21- 10:41) You deserve to be rich because you provide value to other people's lives. So that is the first belief that transform my life because I also wanted to do free. I want to help those people who are poor, but I must make myself rich first. I must make myself successful first before I could give more to other people.
2. Be an excellent receiver.

(11:27-11:54) So as I'm giving, I must learn to receive. So when people ask me, oh, can I help you with your business? Can I get you or can I help you with this project? I say no, I can do it myself because I grew up at 14 years old fighting for my rice bowl. So I'm very independent. So I opened my heart to learn to receive, to be an excellent receiver. That's how the abundance walks through the doors.
3. Be grateful for everything you received.

(12:00-12:27) Become more and more grateful for every single penny and every single cent that comes in and goes out by having a gratitude mindset and saying thank you for every single sentence and writing down to the $0.05. I learned that by saying that appreciating every single cent gave me a lot more, 100 times more by being grateful for every single one that I have.
4. Practice this powerful mantra.

(13:02-14:24) All you need to do is just raise your right hand and put your right hand onto your heart. And then in three, two, one, let's speak this together. Three, two, “I love myself and I set myself free. This is my time, I'm ready for the next step.” Now pause and breathe in and breathe out. Notice how you feel at this current moment. Be at peace and notice the feeling about taking the next step and relaxing. So that is my journey about money and with money. And notice how we've transitioned and being at peace and aligned with our heart. That's when the soul is truly happy.

Key Takeaways:

Give value to others
Do something you love.
Be an Excellent Receiver.
There is hope and light at the end of the tunnel.
Invest in Self-Healing and Personal Development.

Episode 128: 7 Signs You Need To Work On Your Mindset

Hey, gorgeous and welcome to today's episode. I'm your host, Genecia Alluora. Now today, I want to share the seven signs you need to work on your mindset. Now, when it comes to money, sooner or later, there will be a wake-up call that happens for each of us. Maybe the last year has been a massive wake up call for you.

1. When you know it's your time but something holding you back.

(04:38- 05:34) Finally, each year you set big goals thinking that this will be the year that your dreams come true. You might even have a book that is sitting on your computer 90% done or a program or course that's ready to launch, but something's just stopping you. Every day you wake up and you think now it's the time, it's the right time. But the moment your income doesn't match up with your intelligence or with your degree or potential and the gifts you offer up to the world, you are tired and you are tired of waiting for someone else to choose you or you deem that you are ready to earn more. I'm sure you're frustrated in yourself that you haven't done it yet, but maybe today is today and you know that it's now or never.

2. When you’ve been practising personal development yet your money handling behaviour doesn't change.

(05:43-06:32) You love personal development, but the money hasn't shown up yet. Well, you could be feeling like a fraud or flaky person right now because you're doing everything right, but it's just not working. I bet you have a dream board, a vision board, or you journal your goals regularly. And you are a very positive person. You probably read every book that talks about making money abundance under the sun, but you feel like there's still a missing puzzle

It feels unfair if you're honest with yourself. You know that you've been sabotaging money behaviours that are working against you, but you can't change them.

3. When you don't earn what you are worth but you are aware of that.

(06:36-06:52) You don't earn what you are worth and you suspect that you're worth a lot more. The charge what you are worthing gets a really bad reputation, especially when we talk about it here in soul rich woman, you need to charge your worth, do less.

(07:00-07:34) It's because women don't see that they are worth the amount, and they're always using that excuse or that sentence. Women should just help women. Why should I charge or get someone to pay me for my products or services? I mean, you can't put a price tag on yourself as a human being. You're priceless, but guess what your business isn't. You have to name a price.

4. When you want to live a life worth living but you're compromising it.

(08:39-08:50) You want to live a first-class, amazing life, but you're stuck in the rut, you're stuck in your cupboard.

(08:53-09:41) You are sick of compromising areas in your life, like where you stay, what you eat, how you are treating your family because we're talking about owning and loving the F-word. So being fabulous, freedom, financial independence, and a happy family. So you're kind of sick of compromising all these four F-Words in your life, where you live, how you dress, or how you travel. It's exhausting, super tiring to have to justify every single dollar, every single cent. Think about it. Wouldn't it be nice and cool to have peace of mind that you can always make more money? You're seeing other women rapidly increasing their income and you are kind of jealous? It's okay to admit it.

5. When you're aware of your money handling capability but do not seek any help.

(09:57-10:01) You already know that you need a money mindset makeover.

(10:06-10:21) You might even have gone through situations when you think I've got to sort this out.

(10:22-10:50) For example, when you start to perspire when you talk to an accountant or anyone official or officially about money, or you sit and procrastinate like sending out invoices people send me their confessions all the time and say that they are so scared about money, in particular, talking about it and asking for it, you might even think you are really bad with money.

(11:08-11:16) It's about taking a practical inventory of your past experiences and examining it with all your beliefs and habits around money.

6. When you feel like you repel money.

(11:27-11:56) You know how to manifest money quickly when you need to, but it's not predictable or it comes at a great personal cost. Like, for example, you're stressed out or burned out. When you have a good month, you often attract unexpected bills or fines that will wipe it all out. So you're always going like two steps forward and one steps back, ten steps forward and three steps back. And that can be so frustrating.

7. When you want to make more money, but you're also scared.

(12:04-12:21) Some people are surprised to learn that even millionaires are scared. Making more money doesn't make the fear go away. Same for me, even at the stage where I'm at, making money is scary sometimes.

(13:05-13:31) You worry about losing your privacy or safety. You worry, you get scammed. You worry about friends and family asking you for more money. You worry that it's going to be a hugely negative experience and you can see where I'm going. This is common and you can see these conflicting things and how much they could be holding you back.

Embracing the money blocks

(13:38-14:01) Everyone has their flavour of money blocks, and I'm here to help you identify yours and clear it.

(14:37-15:13) Remember, Money blocks don’t have to derail you. You can embrace them and move on to creating the life that you want, the F-Word that you want for yourself, family, financial independence, being fabulous, having freedom, but it all starts with your awareness. Once you know your block, you then can stop sabotaging behaviours that you can stop them, that they will not come and haunt you. And then you can move on to the next level. That's when you can make money, no matter what.

Key Takeaways:

Know your worth.
We all can have it all.
Create a money mindset reset.
You're priceless, but your business isn't.
Money blocks don’t have to derail you.

Episode 127: 3 Money Goals To Set For 2022

Hey, gorgeous. Welcome to today's episode. I'm your host, Genecia Alluora. Now in this episode, I want to share with you three money goals you could set for yourself for a great year ahead. Now, don't resist it because goal setting is free and I'm here to help.

Three money goals to set for yourself.

Set a Savings Goal.

(02:36-02:48) Actually opening up a savings account and making a savings goal is a great sign to the universe that you're ready for more money to show up. And it takes a huge mindset shift to allow yourself to have access to money.

(04:26-04:44) So set a savings goal and take action today. Start by saving just $5 a week on an automatic gyro or automatic debit system and if you have already saved money, increase your weekly amount, you won't even miss it.

2. Set a Goal to be Debt-free.

(04:49-05:08) Now, debt is another area that we sabotage ourselves with, or we sabotage easily with ourselves with it keeps you trapped. Maybe in a job that you don't like or obligated to work with clients you don't like either.

(05:49-06:12) When you make the decision to get out of debt, it can mean choosing a corresponding rise in your rates and income, which often brings out some of your fears and blocks and sometimes the worst devil that is within you. It takes commitment and guts to make a plan to get rid of debt and then follow through with it.

Tip: Get really honest with how much debt you actually have or already have.

3. Set an Income Goal.

(07:34-07:52) Set an Income goal but not just your overall goal, like a million dollars. Okay, I want you to set goals around different income streams in your business. In particular, set a total revenue goal and a passive income goal.

Closing Message:

(08:44-08:55) Create momentum in the things that you are doing. It's never just waiting for the next big thing. It's about doing the small little things and taking small steps forward to the bigger goal.

Key Takeaways:

Set a savings goal.
Set a goal to be debt-free.
Set an income goal.
Don't procrastinate plan.
Repetition is key.

Episode125: THE END OF YEAR RITUAL TO FINISH THE YEAR WITH A BANG

Hey, gorgeous. Welcome to today's episode. I'm your host, Genecia Alloura, founder of Soul Rich Woman and creator of the Soul Rich Woman blueprint. In today's episode, I want to talk about the end of year ritual to finish the year with a bang.

Recognize the good things you’ve accomplished.

(04:09-04:48) So it's best to do this with someone who understands you, who sees you, for you and your accomplishments, and who will draw out of you, who will draw out all these lists of things that you are proud of this year. So take turns asking each other what you're proud of. Start with, I'm proud of and list things out.

(04:52-05:09) Then you can move through business accomplishments. Then you can move through tricky situations that you've dealt with, boundaries you have enforced, goals that you have achieved, personal accomplishments, awards that you have won, anything that you want to acknowledge yourself for. Don't be shy or modest. It's time to shine your light on everything you have done because you deserve to shine.

Why it is very important to recognize all wins?

(07:44-08:15) Keep asking and don't give up. Recognizing everything you've achieved in this phase of adversity is so good for you. It's awesome to remember everything. It's also great to manifest and to acknowledge all your wins, both big and small so that you can attract even more luck and abundance into the new year. Work on a mix of business and personal. As long as you get at least 30 to 50 good things.

Always have this phrase in mind “what else”.

(06:43-07:19) Don't give up the list of accomplishments and things you're proud of is important. But the question, what else is extremely important too? You probably get stuck at about the fifth or the sixth thing you're proud of because you just don't want to brag. You don't want to talk about accomplishments. You discount who you discount your achievements or simply just forgotten or what I call kind of like denial. You just live life and then just sweep it under the carpet and you don't think that's necessarily an important thing.

Key Takeaways:

Shine your light
Acknowledge all your wins.
Write it down all your achievements
Read your accomplishments.
Manifest your wins.

124: 5 TIPS TO GET THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS WITHOUT TRIGGERING YOUR MONEY BLOCKS (TOO MUCH)

Hello gorgeous and welcome to today's episode. I'm your host, Genecia Alloura. Today I want to share with you the five tips to get through the holidays without triggering your money blocks or triggering too much of your money blocks.

Five things to do to make sure your money blocks aren't triggered.

1. Have a kind response

(02:22-03:27) A go-to response. When your family asks you about potentially triggering topics. This can apply to questions about your business, so it pays to be prepared a hit of the time. Now you might have someone in your family who constantly ask you, how is your business doing right now or what are you doing for business again? Or do you mean you change another business? Are you qualified to even do this and they make you feel like shit? Here's the thing, you don't have to tell them about the ins and out of your business. You don't have to tell them how many clients you have, how much they pay you. You don't have to tell them anything if you don't want to. Here's a really simple go-to response. It can be something like, hey, it's doing great. Thanks so much for asking. Well, there's a lot of things happening. I'm very excited. Thanks so much for your concern. As simple as that.
2. Change the subject

(05:29-05:37) Get really good at changing subjects. Now, this is what we call in NLP called a pattern interrupt. (05:57-06:34)

Instead of answering all the business questions, all your money or your bankruptcy or your debt or anything at all that makes you feel stressed. You know what? Get good at changing subjects and you can say, oh, I love this Steamboat that you have just made. What's in it? Yeah, I love this so bad. What ingredients do you use? Completely bypass what they have just asked you or yeah, it's doing great. What about you? What's new about you? New on your side? What's going on with you?
3. Be clear about what you want.
(07:29-08:03) If presence triggers you, then there are a couple of ways around it. You could just freak out, ask people, what do you want for your present or tell people what exactly you want for your present. Direct them. Don't just assume and don't make it a test of their love or their love language, and then blame them later. Okay, well, if they love me, my parents will finally get me the present I love. No, no, don't test them. Just tell them what you want. Don't worry about if people don't buy you the right stuff, just tell them.
4. Don't keep presents you don't like.(09:16-09:45) If you get presents you don't like and it does trigger all memories, you don't have to keep them. You can say thank you graciously, but you do not have to keep them. You can go straight from your house and drop it off at the charity store. Someone else is going to love that. If you get presents a bit before the holiday season or festive season and you open them and you don't like it, you rewrap them and donate to charity.
5. EFT, Emotional Freedom Technique or tapping.

(11:30-12:08) This was a technique I learned in 2000 and I think 2008, and I love it so much. It's like my secret weapon when I'm going through emotional trenches and emotional laws. So if you are in your family house and you're getting triggered, go into the bathroom and do a little bit of tapping. Okay, now I would know that you will say even though I have these feelings, even though my family are annoying, even though nobody loves me and buys me presents that I like, I deeply and completely love and I set you myself. So say that to yourself.

Key Takeaways:

Have a kind response.
Change the subject.
Be clear about what you want.
Don't keep presents you don't like.
Emotional Freedom Technique

You Can Heal Your Life Audiobook (Full) By Louise Hay

Episode 123: Lead To Greatness With Genecia Alluora

Hello, Hello, and welcome to today's episode. I've completed an interview with the Lead to Greatness podcast and with this host, Cedric Francis. I loved this episode so much and I would love to share this interview with you. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Turn your mess into your message.

(9:45-10:14) I think it's all about not being a victim of my circumstances, my mental, social, emotional circumstances. My mum encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and go towards the dreams I've always wanted to achieve because the sky is the limit and there's no storm that we cannot conquer. My mom keeps reminding me that adversity is just a past, something that doesn't hold us ransom. I applied this tremendously in my life, and I believe that our past does not equal our future.

What drives Genecia to empower women to go after what they want and their biggest dream?

(11:12-12:03) The three things would be I wanted to create a legacy and help women to have this A, B and C. Of course, A being awareness, having the awareness that they can have the F-Word, that it is possible for them, and B have the belief that they can have the courage to fly to wherever they want to go, C having the consistency to pursue and hammer at the constant goal that they want to go for. So the ABC is going to, even though it looks so simple, it's not

Complicated. It's very easy. You just need to focus on ABC and help them have the awareness, allowing me to connect with them.

How has failure shaped her entrepreneurship journey?

(14:53-14:57) Failure has given me perspective. I think it's not just failure. These are just lessons.

(15:20-16:10) I had joined a partnership with my friends. And that was one of the reasons I went into the six-figure debt. They left me hanging we started a business together. There was no contract. There was nothing black and white. And it was just, okay, we are friends. So let's do something together and we join forces and we do a dating agency of sorts. But it didn't work out. And because I was a major shareholder, nothing was done. I lost a major amount of money. Right? And that left a scar in me. So typically, if I had not taken failure positively as a lesson learned, like, don't do business with friends? Because first and foremost, let me put it into context for you. It's about the value of money.

(18:11-18:18) So where do you stand in terms of your failure? How do you view it? How will you turn it around for yourself? Remember my mother said, turn your mess into a message.

How did she build one of the leading women support groups in Southeast Asia?

(20:43-21:10) Have an open heart. Think of yourself as a big tree. I think that's one you must be willing to give. I think to have a sustainable business model and help others in a way that allows them to take on the opportunity as well. So we run on a subscription-based business model.

(21:35-22:06) So we always allow the women to ease into growth, whether it's an entrepreneurship journey or to acquire whichever effort their dream allows them to. So from $12, we move up to the next and then we move up to the different mentoring programs and stuff like that. So that progression is something that allows women to dip their fingers and toes into something that they want to do. And that's how we grow the network.

How did she successfully manage a fully digital company, working with remote employees from different parts of the world?

(22:56-23:56) I think first and foremost, you must have a project management tool. I use Asana. I do that, A-S-A-N-A, Asana. And then I use Skype for daily communications. And last but not least, we have a common place like Google and Dropbox, Google Drive and Dropbox to share files and things like that. I think that allows me to work with remote employees. I think there are three things I learned. I was never being able to let go of the task that I was doing work that was doing. I find that I became the bottleneck in my business. But if I were to grow a business scale business, I think the growth strategy is to learn how to delegate.

How to delegate?

(26:18-27:12) The mindset shift was to sit down and be diligently writing out the task of all the things that I want that I'm doing right now that I could potentially outsource and get someone else to do it. So that sitting my ass down was one of the hardest parts because you are doing it day in, day out. It's so simple and so straightforward for you. So it's so easy and has so much flow. But to sit down and list it out logically with clarity. It's something that requires a lot of effort and discipline and to tell yourself that if you write it down, then you can hand it over. When you write it down, then you can delegate. And that's how I come up with this workbook to teach people how to delegate 80% of their Todo list so that they can make money online.

Final Thoughts

(28:42-29:02) Step out of their comfort zone, quit thinking and start doing because what is life truly mean to you? Is it fear or is it the fabulous, the freedom, the financial independence and the happy family? Really? the sky is the limit and there's no storm you cannot conquer.

(29:27-29:35) Don't lose sight of your goals. Sometimes the shit hits the fence, pick yourself up and keep going forward.

Key Takeaways:

Be willing to give.
Learn how to delegate.
Take failure as a lesson
Know the value of money.
Turn your mess into your message.

Kim Kiyosaki: Invest In Yourself And Get To Financial Freedom with Rich Woman

In this episode we have a very special guest is none other than Kim Kiyosaki. She is an Internationally renowned speaker, best-selling author of “Rich Woman” and “Good Deal, Bad Deal”, Radio Show Host, Entrepreneur and Real Estate Investor. She is also the founder of the Rich Woman organisation. Kim realised early on in her career that she didn’t want to be an employee. In search of something more, she worked to develop her skills and made her first real estate purchase. She now controls millions of dollars of investment property and is committed to helping women achieve financial freedom through investing and taking control of their financial futures.

Rich woman book

Kim Kiyosaki wrote the book entitled “Rich Woman”. Here she shared the inspiration behind the birth of the book:

(3:45)The reason Genecia I wrote Rich Woman was because Robert and I, we travel the world teaching the Rich Dad philosophy taking two big groups and I will get up on stage and I will speak to the women for just a few minutes and at every event whether it's Singapore or we're London, Tokyo, Johannesburg wherever it was at the end of the event I’d always be surrounded by women and they had the same questions and the same issues and the biggest thing I realized is there's a huge huge huge demand for women to be educated about money and actually,we women, not only have we not been expected to know much about money but we’ve actually been taught to depend upon somebody else for our financial well-being.

Financial Literacy

Financial independence is not based on gender. It happens through education. This is Kim’s encouragement for women to be financially secured:

(4:52)So my whole message is we need to be in control of our finances we need to step-up and be financially literate and ideally it's up to each one of us to be financially secured

(5:07)Nobody’s gonna do that for us

(5:09)No financial advisor no financial planner it's up to us. And it's not rocket science anybody can do it but it takes time and it takes education
She added that to be financially stable requires a process:

(6:17)Actually starting to take control of your finances starts very simple. You start small and take baby steps we don’t go for the big deals we stick with the small deals. And the most important thing is that understand there’s no secret sauce, there’s no magic pill

(6:49)It’s a process and it’s a process of education, it’s a process of experience but it’s not difficult.

(06:58)it’s just a matter of committing

Risk taking in Business

You don’t have to have it all figured out to start a business. Oftentimes you don’t have anything but risk. Here’s how Kim started from nothing:

(7:41)I started with nothing and I’m gonna tell you that the best thing of all is that I didn’t have the money, Robert and I did not have the money.

(8:10)Probably for the first 10-12 real estate deals I did, I did not have the money now what that forces you to do is get very very very creative

For Kim, she chose real estate as an avenue to invest:

(8:22)Once you see the property or whatever investment it is you’re interested in. Once you see it , and touch it and feel it then put your mind to work on how can I now get the money, how can I create the money in order to get the investment.

(9:54)What you want to do is create positive cash flow. My investment of choice is real estate there’s many other ways to gather cash flow whatever works for you.

(10:05)But we had 10 thousand dollars a month cash flow from our rental properties. But we only had 3 thousand dollars a month in living expenses. So at that point $10,000 coming in and $3,000 going out we were financially free.

Achieving financial freedom

Financial freedom may seem difficult at first but it is not impossible. As Kim ventured into Real Estate this is what they experienced:

(10:39)Number 1 I did not have to worry about money anymore and number 2 it gave me the luxury to ask myself what I really want to do with my life. So it’s all about financial freedom.

(10:50)It’s about freedom, not so much about the money but freedom is that having choices to live the life you want to live. That’s what it’s about.

Filling up the gap in your cash flow

There’s no one way to fill the gap, but the key is education and being fearless. Here is Kim’s encouragement:

(11:57)I made a ton of mistakes, a ton. I mean that’s the key to success, I’m gonna tell you right now, that the key to success is making mistakes everybody is still afraid of making a mistake, the only way we learn is by making a mistake.

(12:24)The key is you gotta got into action I will always say get some education get some education get some financial education on the asset class you like and then once you have some education start very small take baby steps put a little money down because as soon as you put so many down my interest goes way up.

(12:57)One thing I recommend for women especially is to go out and buy a 1 ounce silver coin. it’s been across 20 dollars US today. But what that does because you know got this asset this gold or silver coin all of the sudden your interest will go up will look at the prices of silver every single day, what’s it doing. Why is it up, why is it down? And because you’ve just parted with 20 dollars US you become this quasi expert on silver.

(13:31)I’m a big believer in you’ve gotta put some money down, get into the game and then that’s where the real learning happens. You gotta go out and do the real thing.

Raising kids and being married while building your wealth

Your family, most importantly your kids should not be a reason for you not to seek for financial stability. Although Kim and Robert don’t have kids, she shared a very good example here:

(14:09)Robert and I do not have kids, really by choice.

(14:19)But my girlfriends for example Lisa Lannon, she’s a Rich Dad advisor, she and her husband Josh, they have very successful businesses they have 2 kids they involve their kids in their business, they involve their kids in their investing so when they go out and lock at a property they bring the children along so they educate the kids as well as educate themselves. So for women, especially with the internet there’s so much opportunity offer in the internet for business and things like that I think the parent of course can be the best teacher. So why not include the kids. It amazes me how young kids get interested in money. They know about money. When their very very young. So why not educate them while your educating yourself.

(15:14)I don’t think it has to be one or the other. I think you can do it together.

(15:21)and same with the relationship same with couples I’m not advocating for the woman to go out there she’s married and she has a life partner then she goes out there and do this all by herself and separate from her spouse this is ideally investing it’s something you want to do together as a couple because you grow together you learn together.

Invest in yourselfBeing a woman is not an excuse to remain financially dependent on someone else. Be encouraged with Kim’s words:

(20:00)Most important investment is to invest in yourself and to invest in your education. And for me, it’s about your financial education.

(20:12)At some point you gotta put yourself first. As a woman we tend to put everybody else first, we put our husbands, our family, our kids, everybody else first . There comes a time you gotta say “hey! I gotta put myself first”

(21:05)Oftentimes, too many of us women find ourselves in a financial crisis and they’re not educated about money. They have no idea.

(21:27)Especially if you are a mom, I think you owe it to yourself to get financially educated to take care of your kids in case something happens.

(21:53)When people say “I’ll try to get there” “I’ll try to be there” “I’ll try to make it” If you’re saying I’ll try, you’re already saying “I’m not gonna do it” . Cause try doesn’t even exist.

(22:22)So just be honest with yourself

The secret of Success

There’s no such thing as a secret to success, according to Kim it’s all about personal development and letting go of fear:

(28:07)Well there’s really no secret except we work on ourselves we work on this because this is what holds us back the fear the doubt the all of the things that get in our way that’s what holds us back from success.

(28:29)For somebody who is just starting out. If you’re just starting out in investment, in real estate, in a business, it’s scary because it’s an unknown. You haven’t done this before we got this horrible fear of making mistakes. So when we come up against obstacles and things like that oftentimes this is the biggest obstacle. So if we can keep clearing our thoughts, our beliefs, our ideas especially around money, that can free us up to move forward with a lot of energy.

Women Empowerment

This is the perfect moment for women to stand out and stand up. Gone are the days of taking the back seat. Here is Kim’s call to all women:

(38:11)For women right now I’m saying women we need to go for it the world is really messed up right now it’s messed up financially, economically, morally, ethically and I think it’s up to the women to turn things around because we deal with different energy, we deal with different spirit we bring a whole different personality to the world.

38:42-39:05 Right now it’s up to women to stand up to start being role models start being leaders in their families in their communities in their cities in their countries and that’s more why I speak or why I educate it’s not just about you getting financial security it’s really about women stepping up in taking leadership roles and really changing the world.

Transformation

Financial situations that hinder us from being secure can only be changed with real transformation. Here is Kim’s explanation based on Neuroscience:

(39:51)If you’re in that situation you gotta ask yourself if I keep doing what I’m doing every single day am I gonna get the outcome I want?

(40:10) If they keep doing what they’re doing is that gonna change that situation or not and if it’s not then they have to ask themselves what do I need to do in order to change it? So, for real change to happen, real transformation to happen it's a four step project, a four step process. One, you gotta get information. Two, you gotta take action so if somebody’s in that situation and they’re not doing anything different nothing’s gonna change so you got to take action that’s different. the 3rd step is what’s called feedback so for every action we take, every single action we take there’s feedback.

(41:28)The fourth step is called incubation where you take time being yourself and really incorporate what you’ve learned into your body of knowledge.

Key Takeaways :

Have a proper allocation of your scarce resources to satisfy needs and wants
Educate yourself first before anything else.
Change your money mindset.
Make it your goal to be financially secured.
Don’t be afraid to take risks and invest.

Be a woman in power with Elena Cardone Grant Cardone Empire AUTHOR | PUBLIC SPEAKER

In this episode, we’ll be empowered through the words of wisdom of our special guest. She is the Queen of her Empire, she has designed, constructed and protected a life outside of the ordinary. She has inspired a legion of followers to create their own empires – lives that are truly fulfilling and beyond the average. She counts her current job as her most important one – Chief Family Officer, where she is a loving mother, fierce wife and loyal friend.

Overcoming roadblocks

Elena’s life is quite challenging because she experienced a lot of struggles at a young age. She witnessed a fire across their house and killed two people despite their efforts to put out the fire.

(4:47)“At 14 years old not having anything so traumatic occur in my life I just wasn’t skilled enough at my age to deal with something like that and my father had fought in World War II and he was a military person and we’re just very conservative family. So it wasn’t like there was any time to really to cope it was life must go on.”

Despite all this roadblock she pushed her way to move and step forward which led her to become the independent woman that she is now.

Passion and desire

(5:55) “So at 17 I decided I’ve got to get out of here I’m going to Los Angeles I’m gonna be something I’m gonna become an actress.”

Indeed, because of her passion and desire she got her 2 and half month contract in Tokyo as a model and actress and became somewhat successful. She did modeling, acting and commercials as well.

Independent woman

(6:21)“When I met Grant the first five years of our marriage I was still doing this woman independent thing like we were married and I thought marriage is monogamy. I thought it was only about that. I didn’t realize that if I’ll partner up with someone it strengthens the numbers.”

(7:23) “When economic collapse occurred that’s when I decided to trade in my acting career which I was terrified to do because it was what I depended on for my survival since I moved to Los Angeles by myself at 17.”

Getting used to being independent as a teenager it was a challenge for Elena to see how a husband can contribute to her success as a woman.

“We had a power struggle because I am super independent and I don’t want anyone to control me”

Financial Freedom

(8:29) “ We wanted to take that power in our own hands, so I have this idea about this empire, okay if he is the king and I am the queen and this is our empire what do I want it to look like? Who do I want to surround ourselves with? Do we hang out with the people with drugs and alcohol?”

So, Elena and her husband cleaned up their lives because it’s part of being a positive influence. They focused on building their empire, foregoing all luxuries they enjoyed before to pool all their resources towards their business, until they become successful and gained financial freedom.
(9:18) “Now that we have created so much success in our lives financially we do have financial freedom not just financial independence.”

Tips on How to work with a partner(9:46)“A few little adjustments to get you both operating on the same page so that you can really utilize each other’s horsepower to push yourself instead of without even realizing it working against each other or you might go like this or you must like go straight down. But if you actually know how to work together and know each other’s roles, strengths and weaknesses and how you can build together, like push yourself on. Just eliminate the few incorrect pieces of datum because as they say “knowledge is power”.

(10:22)“If you get rid of bad key elements and then tweak and get on the same page it so much easier than you think. There’s still gonna be work, there’s still gonna be sacrifice, it’s still gonna take time but you will be able to exponentially up the rocket faster”

Solving Problem

(11:02)“Stop thinking so much unless it’s a broad picture of possibility.”
Start looking for the possibilities, start looking for the opportunities sometimes your biggest problem can be your biggest solution. If you are having that problem you figure out how to solve it, chances are if you solve that for other people you can scale that business out.

(11:45)“If you need to have help, if you need to, hire somebody while you figure this out don’t feel like you are a superhero and do everything yourself at some point maybe ask your friend to help you until you can afford to pay someone to help you but you just have to go out and do something. Take action, stop thinking and do and you can do even if your knees are trembling, even if you think it’s not going to work and you feel ridiculous.”

Equipping women’s confidenceWomen's are powerful. As Elena stated:

26:27 I wanna equip women with the confidence.

(26:36) I want women to mind their own goals who are they, not only a brand but as their contribution and not with hold that from the world like if we all lived up to our potential or try to fight for the greatness how could that impact the world. We could make a big difference wouldn’t just be a fairytale idea in my head like there would be real transformation. If people actually deliver their gifts and I want women to expose that and give it to the world and stop with holding and stop thinking their not good enough. And stop thinking they have nothing to contribute. It’s so selfish women are so powerful, and so dynamic and there so aesthetic just imaging if the world operated that aesthetic wavelength you know how difference just that could be.

Key Takeaways:

Sharing control does not diminish your worth.
Sacrifices are important to pursue life’s priorities.
If you have to, ask for help until you can stand back on your own feet.
A mindset shift is important to achieve success.
It’s never too late to learn something new.

Be authentic with Sue B. Zimmerman

In this episode, we have a very special guest. She built her career empowering entrepreneurs and marketing professionals to utilize the power of Instagram to get tangible business results. In short, she is an Instagram expert. Our guest that will enlighten our minds and encourage us is no other than Sue B. Zimmerman

How is the power of influence being manifested?

Sue B. shared about the power of influence and how she influences others. According to her:
(2:43)“The power of influence is when other people talk about you so you don’t have to talk about yourself. It’s the amplification and broadcast from other people sharing your knowledge.”

Being authentic

Sharing posts on Instagram is valuable.
(3:23)“Meaning you educate, empower, or inspire in some way where someone scrolls to your feed and stops their thumb from scrolling, it’s a thumb-stopping content and they look at it and it changes something in their mind”

You must be careful in the posts that you will share on Instagram because there’s a lot of people who can see it and it can affect you a lot. After all not all you see on Instagram is true.

Sphere of influence

Being influential is quite challenging because you can’t please everyone. No matter what you are doing people can always comment on your act whether it’s good or bad. Sue stated that:
(3:46)“ I think that that’s influential I think that, that is opportunistic, I think, that is a way to attract other people that you’re meant to be serving and to your point growing your business, growing your leads and sphere of influence.”

Don’t believe everything you’re looking at

Sometimes what we see is not always true. Because we are being played by some people.
(7:30) “You’ve got to be showing yourself consistently over time and the space that you want to influence. Because there are many people who want to make money on Instagram like I want a hundred thousand followers so I can get paid to be an influencer” well number 1 is: Do not ever ever ever ever buy followers 2. Not every follower is equal it’s more important to be attracting the perfect follower who will ultimately buy your products or services or believe you when you endorse another product or service because they like you they like your brand and they like your business and they trust you.

Key takeaways:

Being influential means to be authentic.
Scrutinize IG posts before believing them.
You cannot please everybody no matter what you do.
Aim for organic leads.
Reach out to the correct audience.

FWEP112 Why anyone can be successful online and be a person of influence with Neil Patel, New York Times Best-Selling Author

In this episode, we have a very special guest. He is a New York Times best-selling author. The Wall Street Journal calls him a top influencer on the web, Forbes says he is one of the top 10 marketers, and Entrepreneur Magazine says he created one of the 100 most brilliant companies. He was recognized as a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 30 by President Obama and a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 35 by the United Nations. He is Neil Patel.

Online success

No matter the platform passion is the starting point of success. Work on what you are passionate about.

(2:35) If you want to succeed online what you need to do is go and find something you are passionate about and go on and do that. So, that’s the first, if you don’t know what you’re gonna do as an entrepreneur you’re not gonna succeed online. You have to do something. You can’t just go with the vision of “I want to make money” that doesn’t work find something you’re passionate and solve a problem and make your solution ideally affordable and easy to use.

Content creation

Choose content that you are most comfortable with. Not because it worked for others it can work for you. Find your expertise and work from there.

(3:17 )The strategy for creating a lot of content is to find content that you create the easiest. Some people are gonna write, some people are gonna audio some people are better at the video. So find what you are naturally good at and do more of that content.

(3:32) The second thing is, create a content calendar, which will help you map out when to write the content, when to release the content, which will help you do content in quality.

Journey towards success

We can’t escape the fact of experiencing the ups and downs in life. But most important how do we find a solution for the problem that we have.

(4:20) A lot of ups and downs but the key is if you love what you’re doing you’ll continue pushing forward and you’re gonna make mistakes and learn from them and then just avoid making the same ones over and over again. And eventually, you’ll get to where you want to be.

Inspiration for content

You will always make time for what stirs you up.

(4:37) I love what I’m creating and if you are passionate it’s easy to create but if you are not passionate it’s like pulling teeth, it’s hard.

(5:05) You’ll find the time if you are truly passionate

Two heads are better than one

It is said that two heads are better than one and man can’t live alone. So in the business world, we need to look for someone who can help us in our business.

(5:40) When you are a solo entrepreneur the best thing you can do is try to find a business partner. So, think of a marriage having two people is easier than one to raise kids and a family.

With a business, you want to find someone else who is a business partner who has different skills than you.

(5:59) Find someone who complements you, who does different stuff that will help you grow faster.

Person of influence

Being a person of influence is quite challenging. But the question is how do we use our influence? We must always remember not to take advantage of the influence we have over others.

(6:10) My influence lies in entrepreneurs and marketers and I grew my influence by just helping people.

Key Takeaways:

Look for something you are passionate about.
Find out what you are naturally good at.
Grow your influence by helping others.
Find someone who compliments you.
Push forward, despite the obstacles.

FWEP00111: Win your money mindset with Denise Duffield Thomas The Lucky Bitch

In this episode, we are talking about a woman of influence. We have a very special guest, a money mentor for the new wave of online entrepreneurs who wants to make money and change the world. She helps women charge premium prices, release the fear of money and create First Class Lives.

Knowing the Power of influence

Knowing influence will serve you as a leader in your family, community, and friends to the people that surround you. Being influential can be learned as Denise stated about the influence.

(2:30) “You could learn how to influence, you could learn how to be more charismatic and you could learn how to be a leader. You could persuade people, you could influence people to behave in a way that you actually want them to behave. But that would feel really good for them as well. And that’s when I got the concept of being a leader and leadership.”

A woman of influence is a challenging role because you must be careful with the way you act and speak.

Common Myths about the power of influence

Sometimes we can’t escape the fact of being scared of something. (4:04)“So,one thing that I found a lot of women is scared about. They are actually scared of their own innate ability to be a leader and to influence others. Because they’re worried that it’s kinda bit manipulative. And they’re worried that they might use that power to do not-so-good things rather than do good things.”

A lot of people want to be influential but they don’t have the courage or sometimes they are too weak to withstand others that they are often taken advantage of. But most women want to become influential to touch and change lives.

(4:31) “A lot of women, want to influence people so they can help them transform their lives, they want influence people so they can encourage to do something good for themselves. But I think that's the misconception that people think or worry. That if they really enhance that power in themselves that will be very manipulative.”

Maximizing Women of Influence

An empowered woman can do great things with her influence and touch many lives in wonderful ways.

(10:12) “It has massive opportunities for women to have their own business to make their own money, empower other women, hire other women to inspire other women to do the same, that’s what the world needs at the moment to make the smoothest shift to shape the world in ways that would benefit a lot of people.”

How do you measure influence?

(10:51) “Influence to some people means power. It means being on top, being the winner making and earning money; beating everyone else. For women, we can use our power for good so everyone thrive not just a few people and it’s not about beating other people. That’s why people shy away from this feeling of wanting to be influential, because we feel like, one person can do it.”

The downside of being influential

(13:05) I don’t want to be political and controversial.

I don’t want people to think badly about me.

(13:43)You have to consider your words a little bit more.

Key Takeaways:

Influence is not about power but the ability to change other people’s lives.
Don’t shy away from wanting to be influential for fear of being hated.
Use your influence to make people’s lives better.
A woman of influence can help shape the world.
An influential person screens her words and actions.

110: Veronica Tan The Woman behind the 100 million dollar personal development business

In this episode we have a very special guest she is Veronica Tan. She was recently awarded the 2017 Global Women Inspiration Woman award in London. The award recognizes the contributions of women towards the Advancement of personal growth and championing the development of business Women globally.

Realizing the dream

Our life’s calling will come to us as we do our best in what we are currently working on. Like Veronica, the foundation for Success Resources came to her and her partner as she was attending seminars while still employed.

(1:15) So I stumble on personal development and realize there’s more to life, more to what we do and be better and bigger.

(1:25) So I started to attend seminars and then, of course, over time because of the program, events that I do, we go, we meet the team of people, like my partner, Richard today, and my other business partner Patrick Liew.

(1:55)When you love what you do just go into 27 years.

Be mindful of the company that you keep

As we go along this life we will meet a lot of people, we will encounter different personalities and characters. So we need to make sure that the person or people we hang around are reliable and can build us up. In Veronica’s words, she said:
(2:08) I was fortunate because, Then I was only an employee and I do go and attend a lot of enrichment program and then through the enrichment program I meet a lot of people and is really like what we say today, it is about "who are you surrounded with?” Because the people you hang around within this area of learning and growing so that's how I chance upon it.

(2:34)So I think it’s very important that you know who you hang around with.

(2:39)You are the average of the 6 people you hang around with the most

(2:49)Most of the time I hang around with my husband which is my business partner now Richard Tan, the other partner Patrick Liew was really very instrumental to train me to expose me to the area of public speaking and meeting people. Other than that person that I’m very influenced by is my family members and then the speakers that I hang around with. So, in the early days, it was people really like Robert and Kim Kiyosaki whom we started with until today is actually 20 years of partnership that we become good friends. Through Robert and Kim, we really got to understand the power of personal growth and business development, financial investment.

(03:44) The last person is Tony Robins these are the people who have influenced us in what we do today in the area of our business ethics, work ethics, and the way we treat people.

We must be wise in choosing who we call friends or partners in life.

Business Ethics and Principles

In this life, we do have different business ethics and principles. How we grow our business will affect how we treat people that surround us. Veronica and her husband are strong believers in treating people well.

(4:21) Number 1. Love people- Everybody has greatness in them. So look at everybody you’ll see their greatness, you’ll see their goodness that nobody’s born to be a bad person “Always look at the greatness of somebody” and ask yourself what can I do to bring out the best in this person. So it’s people's development.

(4:49) We believe in people and we value people we look at people big and small.

(5:05) From the non-successful ones we call them small people and then we coach, build them bring the best out of them and that they become great. So we believe in people.

(5:18) The second one is about honesty and trust. We cannot do things alone if you don’t trust your team, you don’t trust people, you don’t trust your partners, you don’t trust the speaker then nothing will happen. Then you’ll be so careful and so cautious then you will fall into the scarcity mindset. Because you don’t trust so you start with trusting people first.

(5:42) and then you control risk. I think things can go sour, go bad, So what? So Most important is you know it’s a controlled risk, you have to trust the process, trust the universe that all would be great.

From nothing to Something

We all start from scratch, most of us started small before we become great and successful.

(6:42) We evolve from starting as a small team and grow along the way definitely we faced challenges in the area of people. Recruiting people, finding the wrong people. In the end whom you trust did not turn out the way you wanted. And of course, some consequences but they happen but again so what?

Making Mistakes

We will make mistakes, we should not dwell on them but use them as a learning experience.

(7:23)We made mistakes in the area of working with the wrong people and then we also made mistakes in the area of finding the wrong speakers sometimes we are not perfect.

(8:09)So in the end, I do have struggles with speakers I picked wrongly but again so what?

Having Faith

Running a business is never easy, it is not a walk in the park. But according to Veronica with faith, your business will grow. Here are more of her words of wisdom:

(8:55) I know I have faith and have a God. If you are obedient, you are faithful I believe God will take care of us. So if you do the right thing again, the universe will take care of us.

(9:14)You’re doing the right thing the universe will bless you, will open doors for you so there is an element of certainty and trust in yourself first. Now can I make mistakes? Of course. That’s why I said so what because it’s an experience that makes me a better person.

Work-Life Balance

Part of being truly successful in managing all areas of your life.

(10:05) My favorite line is that it’s true, you can’t have two persons at one time in managing. I call it value or rules. Richard, I make him the head of the business, head of the family I just stay as a neck. So, you know the neck actually controls the head.

But yet you give him you want to be the head.

(10:35) And you just stay as a neck to manage them. And tell them to turn left, turn right turn up, look down so because of these so-called values and principles I have with my husband, so we don’t clash, we don’t fight as much, as you hear other people can’t work with their spouse. Because there’s always conflicting values and conflicting instructions so we are quite clear with that and that’s what kept us working happily for 27 years.

Managing a team

Handling a group of people can sometimes be a challenge. Here is a nugget of truth that Veronica wants to share.

(11:34) Everything is by agreement, so I have a prearranged agreement with my team, my husband.

(11:47) We are a team, we need each other. You are great at doing this, I’m great at doing this so let’s not cross boundaries, then coupled with respect.

(11:59) Respect the agreement, that okay you do your thing and I will do mine. We welcome feedback. We make mistakes, if there’s feedback don’t get upset and learn.

(12:17) Be open to learning

Lessons for start-ups

Starting a business takes a lot of courage, these are some of Veronica’s advice:

(24:21) First, learn to be self-aware of who you are.

(26:45) Sometimes you have self-doubt then we say am I trusting the right person or not? Am I making the right decision or not. Definitely, these things happen but if you have fear you have to act in spite of fear and just do it. Of course, we all pray that we make the right decision, but if we make the wrong decision you won’t die

(27:22) You can’t afford to lose but the better attitude is whatever I lost I must know how to find it back and get it back. That means I made a mistake, then the next thing I do I must be better. So much better than I can make up for my past

Being a queen of inspiration

Passion for what you do makes all the difference.

(28:17)What I do is a way of life it's part of my life, I do this every day so I’m not looking at it as a job or as a work. So I just live my life, it might sound monotonous but getting upcoming to work, helping the team, inspiring people, running events I’ll still do the same. Because I know there’s still a lot of people out there who have not been exposed to personal development so I think there’s so much more work for Success Resources to do. Not just Singapore but worldwide.

Key Takeaways:

Don’t stop learning. Learning is a lifelong process
Always find the best in every person.
Surround yourself with the right people.
Get up and make things better if you make mistakes.
Dream and fight for it!

109: 21 Lessons On Launching An International Platform And Make It Profitable Part 2

Welcome to today’s episode! The part 2 of 21 Lessons from launching Soul Rich Woman and many other launches.

(1:25-11:44) Number 11. Now, LAUNCH RESISTANCE IS REAL. Now, everyone experiences it so the fact that if you have resistance, people have resistance signing up for your programs, products, or your services doesn’t mean that you’re not meant to launch.

(1:54-2:09) There are a lot of resistance. People ask questions, funny questions, weird questions, interesting questions, you know. Don’t take it as a sign to stop. Just keep going even though people are resisting.

(2:40-3:03) Number 12. REFUNDS WILL HAPPEN. They are a business right of passage and are inevitable. Do not stress about it. Doesn’t mean when people ask for a refund, you are not good or you are lousy because everyone get refund request all the time.

(3:41-3:49) So celebrate the wins and focus on that rather than celebrating and focusing on the negative, right?

(3:50-4:03) 13. PEOPLE WILL STEAL YOUR STUFF. Now don’t stress too much about protecting all your IP. I mean, some people will join, competitors will join, and steal your stuff

(4:07-4:26) I mean get legal on them if you need to put Terms & Conditions in place. Don’t hide for fear that this will happen. Now, this is pretty rare and lots of people will miss out on your goodness if you let the fear of all these copycats stop you from launching.

(4:27-4:30) Number 14. PEOPLE WILL UNSUBSCRIBE.

(4:33-4:35) Unsubscribes will go up during a launch.

(4:47-4:53) And when I launch Soul Rich Woman there were unsubscribes because maybe it’s not relevant to them.

(4:55-5:13) That’s okay because we can’t just hold on to the people forever. I mean people’s needs and people’s seasons will change, right? It’s nothing personal. Just turn off those unsubscribe notifications and celebrate for those who stay on your list.

(5:18-5:30) Number 15. PEOPLE WILL GET PISSED OFF BY WHAT YOU’RE SELLING. Now people will get irrationally angry that you’re selling something even if you’re giving away 90% of your stuff for free.

(5:31-5:56) I am a true-blue experiencer for that. That’s why I have to tell you this. It sucks, okay? And it hurts. I already did 3,000 episodes of Facebook live- FREE, content that I teach and share my knowledge. And then people get angry about the stuff that we are selling, right? But you know what? It’s okay for you to make money from your business. If people don’t like it, they don’t buy it, that’s okay.

(6:03-6:22) Number 16. PLAN BUT NOT TOO MUCH. Don’t get caught up in creating the perfect planning spreadsheet or that perfect launch spreadsheet. You know what? A simple google document to-do list will do just fine. Action beats perfect planning every time.

(6:38-6:41) Number 17. YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT EVERYTHING.

(6:42-6:46) What is on the paper and what is in your head sometimes, don’t get translated out to reality.

(6:48-6:56) You can just keep a file of ideas for next time. Okay? You won’t be able to implement everything this time but it’s handy to keep it in one place so you remember.

(7:28-7:38) Even though you won’t be able to implement everything now, you will still be able to implement something especially after more experiences accumulated.

(7:38-7:47) Number 18. INCENTIVIZE AND SUPPORT YOUR AFFILIATES. I’m a true believer of affiliates or what we called associates partners

(7:50-8:04) Because they will help you to sell more because you are also leveraging on their audience. But it takes work to support them. Like you need to increase your customer service capabilities because your affiliates will have a lot of questions.

(8:38-8:56) I don’t assume that they know how to become an affiliate of Soul Rich Woman or an associate partner of Soul Rich Woman and EduPac. You have to spell it out, literally. Like how to log in, how to use your affiliate links, how to market well, how to even talk about your program.

(9:14-9:19) You will also attract different types of affiliates depending on the price of your program.

(9:32-9:37) And people love competitions so have a sales or a leads competition.

(9:56-9:58) Launching- don’t do it alone.

(10:02-10:18) Number 19. MINDSET, MINDSET, MINDSET. I worked through so many blocks during the launch. Book in with your mentor to smash through the blocks. Talk to your mastermind everything you need to keep your vibration high.

(10:18-10:33) 20. MISTAKES ARE INEVITABLE AND VERY VERY VALUABLE. You are going to make mistakes, I confirm and I guarantee that. And that’s fine because each time you launch you’re going to get better and better. Each time you launch you’re going to build on the next level of success.

(10:34-10:37) Number 21. DON’T COMPARE. Everyone starts from zero.

(10:56-11:03) We all start somewhere, alright? Don’t assume that everyone has seen your stuff. Launch it again!

(11:05-11:10) I hope that you are ready for your next step. I really admit that.

Key Takeaways:

Just keep going.
Action beats perfect planning every time.
Launching- don’t do it alone.
Don’t compare
Plan but not too much.

108: 21 Lessons On Launching An International Platform And Make It Profitable Part 1

Today I want to talk about the 21 Lessons from launching Soul Rich Woman, doing our membership programs, and I would love to share them with you.

The Biggest Lessons

(1:31-1:49) Here are some of the biggest lessons from our biggest launch ever. Number 1, Life happens so get prepared- Life always happens. During the month we launch Soul Rich Woman we have lots of stuff going.

(2:00-2:03) It’s really helpful to do at least some stuff in advance

(2:05-2:16) Because let’s face it, life doesn’t stop just because you are launching your business or launching a podcast. Don’t leave everything to the last minute.

(2:16-2:21) Number 2, Get support. Now, you don’t really have to do it all by yourself.

(2:25-2:43) I mean whether it’s your podcast or your book or your business, whether it’s a product-based business or a service-based business, I want to tell you this: Outsource as much as possible because it will multiply your output.

(2:51-3:08) You can get people from Fiverr or Elance if you don’t have a big budget because there are so many… so much moving pieces to launch a business or podcasts or everything or otherwise go check out https://www.instanttribeleader.com/

(3:35-3:36) Number three,

(3:37-3:40) Sales pages take forever!

(3:42-3:51) When you build a sales page to launch either your business, your podcasts, your products, or your services, sometimes it will take 10x or a hundred times longer than you will think.

(4:02-4:07) Even with an existing sales page, making tweaks take so much longer than you think.

(4:15-4:33) Good sales page can take hours and hours of your time. So do it early and take some time to sometimes take a breathe off and away from your sales page so that you can come back with a different perspective and continue working on them. So never ever do it last minute.

(4:33-4:38) Number 4. Email cannot be your only marketing channel

(4:39-4:57) Don’t assume that everyone reads your emails. And honestly, deliverability over the years since I started going online since 2013 has gone down because of stronger spam filters, promotional folders, and email fatigue.

(4:58-5:11) You have to promote on all your marketing channels. From your podcast to your Facebook, to your LinkedIn, to your Instagram, to your Tiktok, to your emails, to Facebook ads, wherever.

(5:31-5:41) It is important that email can’t be your only marketing channel. And also people are often decluttering their inbox and even their FB feeds with apps.

(6:39-6:46) Number 5. Spell stuff out for your customers. You see people don’t always read too closely.

(7:03-7:18) We have so much problems with people who just don’t read at all even though they’re provided step-by-step instructions like arrows pointing here, arrows pointing there, to tell them the really obvious stuff.

(7:38-7:43) Sometimes, no matter how many times you say it, you’ll still get emails or WhatsApp.

(7:54-8:09) When actually, everything is done automated. All you need to do is just fill up the form for the Make It Happen micro podcast show and record on the phone itself. Just submit a voice note or voice recording of 3 to 5 minutes recording using your phone.

(8:11-8:12) You don’t need a fancy microphone.

(8:15-8:18) People are just busy. They don’t read at all.

(8:19-8:23) Number six. Pretty doesn’t necessarily sell.

(8:40-8:58) To be frank, don’t try and get too cute with design in your materials logo, no problem. But honestly, sales page can be really simple. Don’t let your Buy Now button or Sign up now button get lost in the crowd of beautiful images.

(8:59-9:00) Number seven. Track your conversions.

(9:05-9:15) Now if you don’t understand that 1 to 2% of people will buy over time the statistics will play out. Unless you are doing more high-touch selling, then YES you can convert higher.

(9:16-9:20) Number 8. Book in self-care. Take care of yourself. Have self-love.

(10:04-10:14) So really, it’s important to put them together and put yourself together so that you can care for yourself while building and launching your business.

(10:31-10:36) Number 9. Track and celebrate every success.

(10:56-11:04) Number 10. Deadlines, bonuses, and incentives work. You really need to build up your deadlines, your bonuses, and incentives.

(11:10-11:16) Humans need scarcity and deadlines to motivate them. So get it done.

Key Takeaways:

Life happens so get prepared.
Get support.
Track your conversions.
Have self-love.
Track and celebrate every success.

107: Power Of Self-Love

Welcome to today’s episode. I’m your host, Genecia Alluora. Today I want to talk about a huge lesson in self-love. The power of self-love is key to a lot of women’s success.

A lot of women are extremely nurturing and loving to everyone except themselves. Some psychologists say is because from an early age girls are taught to be helpful, selfless, and no to trouble anyone. I think it causes some women to feel guilty as if they are not worth spending time or money on or even asking for help. This attitude has a direct impact on our weight, health, relationships, sex, and success and holds back so much potential that could make a huge difference in the world to own and love the F-word.

Take care of yourself

(2:21-2:25) Now, I have to admit being one of the worst in self-love.

(2:29-2:42) I was on the ground with several jobs on the go. As a waitress, I was teaching yoga, aerobics, line dancing and not giving myself physical care or even rest.

(2:44-2:59) Now, I remember a really bad time in my life when my self-care was at an all-time low. Now, it serves as a powerful reminder that I am in control of how I feel about myself.

(4:12-4:30) Of course today, I am much better now. But I have to remind myself that I’m allowed to take care of myself lovingly and I deserve a great relationship. That even though It’s something that I still need to work on, at least I’ve come a long way since that day.

Self-love is important

(4:31-4:54) So why is self-love so important? Now, there are some women who seem effortlessly, confidently, beautiful and things just magically happen for them. They might not be the smartest, the nicest, or the most attractive, but there’s something indefinable that makes them stand out like a star.

(4:55-5:38) And usually, these women get what they want because they ask for it and they feel like they deserve it. It’s just as simple as that. They think nothing of treating themselves as they would a special friend or someone they love. This is not selfish. This is a form of self-love and acceptance. Now self-love and self-care is not just about buying yourself flowers, going to the hairdresser, going for massage, but treating yourself how you would treat others. This includes forgiving yourself for mistakes in any area of your life. It’s about being kind to yourself.

What makes you feel special and loved?

(7:02-7:20) For me, I love spending time alone in solitude. Sitting in my beautiful space, either at home or in a park, or just listening to podcasts and enjoying the beauty around me along East coast park.

(7:21-7:32) When I’m busy, fun things go out of the window. And when we are busy, fun things go out of the window because we think we don’t have time.

(7:33-7:51) When money is tight, we feel guilty about spending money on non-essential experiences. The reason why it’s so important is that when we laugh and have fun - we feel lighter and happier. And this affects how we treat our bodies as well.

(8:04-8:13) Don’t let budget issues hold you back from self-care. It’s usually a reflection of how you treat yourself on the inside

(8:36-8:47) Now there are plenty of things you can do that don’t cause too very much money to have very good self-care and therefore power of self-love is unleashed.

Key takeaways:

Treat yourself the way you would treat others.
You are in control of how you feel about yourself.
Don’t feel guilty
You deserve more.
Forgive yourself.

106: You're Totally Worth It And Confidently Beautiful - Here's Why

Today I’m doing to share with you that You are totally worth it and confidently beautiful like Miss Universe and Mister Manhunt, or a clean shirt, or a new notebook, or fabulous hair, whatever that you are totally worthy of or confidently beautiful of. Fabulous, Freedom, Financial Independence- whatever that may be to you. It’s entirely up to you.

You Matter

(1:49-2:13) Recently, I read something that Oprah said that struck me. Apparently, rich people will still smell their workout shirts to see if they can wear them again. She realized that she was doing it one day and said to herself, “I deserve to wear a fresh, clean shirt, and I’m worth it.”

(2:48-3:12) Now I told this story at my recent workshop, Soul Rich Woman Blueprint because I utterly believe that great success comes down to self-worth. You show other people how to treat you by the way you treat yourself. But also you will need to send a very strong message to the Universe that you deserve more and are ready for more.

(3:31-3:39) I just wanna say this, you are worth it, and you deserve whatever you want to create in this world. You matter.

(3:43-3:51) I totally believe in not being wasteful, but many women take the whole self-sacrificing way too far.

(4:41-4:46) I told myself that I really deserve to have an easy life.

(5:01-5:10) So I just wanna tell you that there are some clues that you might be treating yourself like a poor thing or poor person. It’s like a poor mindset.

(5:41-5:55) Like for example, you are only shopping in thrift stores or what we call like the second-hand stores when other people in your family get newer and nicer clothes or because you feel bad about spending money.

(6:03-6:15) Or sometimes you have this thing like you try to do everything yourself, to do something yourself. For example, dyeing your own hair, or tinting your own eyelashes or eyebrows with disastrous results.

(6:54-6:59) But you know it just makes you feel different.

(7:01-7:11) Perhaps you are already widely successful in one area of your life so you would feel guilty if you were great at any… everything.

(7:34-7:59) Well, a lot of women think that when they become the little Miss perfect, they are being arrogant. They think they’re bossy. They think that they become unrelatable so they don’t go all out. They just choose to function in one F-word for example- Fabulous- and they are poor in Financial Independence. Their marriage is not very amazing as well.

(8:00-8:14) But I wanna tell you here, you can have it all. No guilt, no sacrifice required. Just decide that you are worth living an amazing life to be confidently beautiful because you are worth it.

(8:15-8:30) However, this starts with you. The Universe isn’t going to treat you like a VIP until you do. So celebrate and anchor positive experiences.

(8:37-8:49) So really, you see measurable results in the real world when you show self-nourishing action. This is a sign to the Universe that you are ready.

(8:58-9:12) Remember it’s how it makes you feel. FEEL- the feeling is very important. Remember, good feelings attract good feelings and that’s how the law of attraction works.

(9:14-9:39) And like I said if you do this you might just attract the new opportunity that will push you to the new path. Well, it’s not going to happen outside yourself. In fact, the first step is deciding whether you’re worth it, whether you decide to own your F-word, whether you are confidently beautiful and then you’ll be proved right every time.

Key Takeaways:

You are worth it.
You matter.
It starts with you.
Feelings are very important
Success comes down to self-worth.

105: What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up? It’s Never Too Late To Find Your Dream Job

I’m Genecia Alluora the author of two best-selling books; Make it happen and Personal branding secrets. Former Ms. Singapore, international Cafe Retail chain owner. Southeast Asia Woman of excellence 2010 and International Progressive Woman 2019. I am also the founder of Soul Rich Woman.

Today in this episode, I wanna talk about what you want to be when you grow up, and it’s never too late to find your dream job.

Everyone loves to ask our children that question. Mainly because they will say very interesting things, like a doctor, astronaut, maybe a ballerina, a veterinarian. Of course, children aren’t so bothered by the fact that they’ll one day need a job that pays the bills or need to have skills that will pay the bills or care about making sensible decisions and choices. They just want to do what makes them happy.

What was your burning desire as a child?

(3:16-3:31) Most people have a secret dream of what they want to be and to do with their lives. Some are already living it - either as a career or as a hobby. Other’s are too scared to even articulate what they want.

How do you discover your dream job or your purpose in life?

(3:39-3:47) Look for clues. Now, finding your ideal job or purpose is really obvious when you connect the dots when you look back.

(3:54-4:14) It’s really been a dream for a really long time, or it just fits perfectly with your innate skills and talents. People who find their passion in life say that “Everything just came together.” or “All of my experiences in life has led me to this.”

(4:23-4:27) Clues can be found in childhood as well.

(4:53-5:08) If you have no idea but you know for sure that you’re not doing it because anything about what I’m doing now isn’t specific enough for the universe to manifest the right opportunities, people, and resources to help you along the way.

(5:15-5:50) First, “What do you love to do?”. Two, “What have you always dreamt about doing with your life?”. Three, “What do other people tell you that you are fantastic and fabulous at?”. Number 4, “What dream courses do you think about taking all the time?”. Number 5, “If you didn’t have to worry about taking a pay cut, what about other people thought about you doing with your life? What would you do?”.

(5:56-6:04) These are the questions sometimes I ask and talk about on my lectures as well as in my coaching with my clients.

(6:05-6:42) So I would say take the first steps and do it afraid anyway because once you have an inkling and idea of your passion like a light bulb of AHA moments, then you can take some steps towards changing your career or living in your purpose. For example, volunteering, shadowing someone in your chosen field, being an apprentice of Soul Rich Woman, taking it on a side hobby, or completing a course like a Soul Rich Woman Blueprint to get new qualifications. It doesn’t matter how old or young are you- time is gonna pass by anyway.

(7:13-7:14) Life is really short.

(7:17-7:18) You only live once.

(8:28-8:51) So I would say, make the change. I know that making drastic changes can be scary, I get it. But it’s also liberating. Quitting a horrible job is awesome. Applying for your new dream job is a great step in the right direction, but you have to do something. Otherwise, you’ll stay exactly where you are now.

(8:53-9:45) And if you can’t afford to make the change, then start to plan how you could ease into a new career without completely derailing your life or cause yourself so much stress. Put aside a bit of money for your program, start changing your spending habits now to anticipate a drop in income, or spare some time outside your current job to move towards your dreams- #Sidehustle. Now, you might be working late nights and weekends for a while, but I guaranty, it will pay off eventually and you will enjoy because it will be entirely for you. Remember this is about you. It’s never about me. You investing in yourself is not gonna change my life one bit.

(9:55-10:02) Even just indulging in your passion as a hobby that will make big changes in your life, do it.

What are you doing or going to do to make a change in your life?

(10:52-11:04) My answer to you? OWN IT. As you make the transition into your new life you have to start seeing yourself in a new way before other people will.

(11:38-11:41) What you say becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

(12:45-12:54) Now, if you feel uncomfortable telling people your dream, then get out there and get some experience. Everyone has to start somewhere.

(12:59-3:10) Don’t be embarrassed, okay, if you have to start at the bottom. And sometimes with purpose and passion fueling you? You won’t be there for long.

(13:32-14:07) When you grow outside of your limitations, fears, and self-doubts. When you grow out of the need of needing other people’s approval. When you grow out of living up to the expectations of others. When you grow out of those neigh slayers and dream slayers giving you co-blanket. When you finally give yourself permission to dream and be happy. I love to hear about how you’re making your dream a reality one step at a time.

Key takeaways:

My passion is important.
Own it.
Life is really short.
You only live once.
Everyone has to start somewhere.

What You Can Do When The Law Of Attraction Is Not Working For You

Welcome to today’s episode with Genecia Alluora. Author of two best-selling books, Make It happen and Personal Branding Secrets. Former Ms. Singapore, cafe retail chain owner, Southeast Asia Woman of Excellence 2010, and International Progressive Woman 2019. She is also the founder of Soul Rich Woman.

“In today’s episode, I wanna talk about what to do when the law of attraction isn’t working for you.”

Law of Attraction

(1:25-1:33) When I first came across the law of attraction very much earlier in my career, it’s really very very exciting.

(1:40-1:52) So you think,” Oh my god! How could this be possibly true? Can I just really ask for something and get it, Genecia? This is amazing.”

(1:53-1:56) You see you can set goals, make a dream board, and wait.

(1:58-2:20) And you feel like you’ve done everything right because you pasted all the photos, the images, the car you want, the house you want, the husband you want, the money you want. And so you get really pissed off because nothing happens, right? So you said to the universe, ” Hello, why Universe, you’re not giving me, where’s all the things I asked for on my dream board?”

(2:23- 2:31) I had someone ask me for advice recently, and she was confused about how this works. She love following our podcast show.

(2:38-2:54) And she was incredibly frustrated. She’s like, “Genecia, I’m really panicking. I have no money in my bank account right now and I’ve got three big bills to pay this month. What am I supposed to do?”

(2:55-3:15) So I say, “To start with, stop feeling bad and scared about it. It will only make it worse. So even though you’re worried, start by, first, affirming that everything will be okay. Two, visualizing you paying the bills easily. Three, feel the feeling of being so taken care of by the Universe.”

(3:16-3:34) And she said, “ You don’t understand what I’m saying. How am I supposed to do that when no money in my bank account? It’s true! Everything that you’re saying is lovely, Genecia. But in reality, there is nothing there in my bank account.”

(3:36-3:46) So you see, negative affirmations are just as powerful as the positive ones. When you say, “I have no money, I’m broke.”

(3:55-4:07) You will only perpetuate the feelings of fear and anxiety. Which will probably attract even more bills and unexpected expenditure.

(4:08-4:15) And the funny part about the situation was that she couldn’t see the pattern. Of course, I mean because I am the mentor, right?

(4:19-4:29) But then again, after communicating with her, she still couldn’t see it. So she was constantly experiencing this feeling of having no money.

(4:35-4:45) And she was unwilling to look inside and change. I told her to stay positive and to affirm that something would come up.

(4:47-4:55) And it did. Someone eventually did give her money out of the blue, and she was saved that very month.

(4:57-5:16) Then the horror story came. The next month she wrote to me again and said, “Genecia, I did another Law of attraction experiment like you said and asked for $2000 to show up today, and it didn’t. Why?”

(5:44-5:53) But you know what, there is a process here. It’s not always going to show up instantly if you’re not willing to do the inner work involved.

(5:55-6:16) It’s really so much fun when things manifest instantly. But most of the time, there is a time lag, and there’s no way of knowing how long. Why? Because imagine between us and our dream and the things we want to manifest, there’s so many blocks in between.

(6:20-6:38) The faster you want to manifest something, it only makes sense if you clear or de-trash your garbage, the clutter, in your life. Especially in your mind. Because we are not truly aligned to what we want and we have to do some emotional or physical decluttering. It can be symbolic.

(6:43-7:01) To let the Universe do its job. We may have to look at self-beliefs that we have around money or take stock of some of our bad habits. Most people can’t be bothered and they just wanted instant solution and find a magical fairy.

(7:05-7:17) And not do any work towards it or change their behavior in any way. And to make matters worse, they will keep complaining and whining and they love to blame people.

(7:19-7:27) Because you know what? My law of attraction method didn’t work for her. The Soul Rich Woman blueprint didn’t work for her because she’s complaining, she’s not willing to do the inner work.

(7:29-7:33) “It’s somebody else’s fault!” And they are always blaming someone else.

(7:34-8:06) If you have done some emotional decluttering. They are very clear, and you’re very clear on your goals and you are taking some actions every day, then your desire, your dream, your goals will show up eventually. However, it is incredibly important during the time length to remain totally aligned to the feeling of the outcome. It will be hard to be open to new opportunities and possibilities if you are worried and stressed.

(8:11-8:25) You have to feel it before you have it. And that can be very tough for some people. When you allow doubt and resistance to come in, you will actually block your natural flow and ease to receive abundance.

(8:40-8:53) Trust me. You can learn to be lucky, to be able to attract the F-word into your life- Fabulous, Freedom, Financial Independence, and happily; easily and effortlessly.

(8:54-9:04) The trick is to master the Soul Rich Woman Blueprint, to stay positive even when your reality is temporarily something totally different.

(10:19-10:27) I just wanna say this, “Believe it before you see it, I guarantee it. Your stuff is on its way”.

Key Takeaways:
1. You have to feel it before you have it.

Believe it before you see it.
Be clear on your goals.
Stay positive.
Don’t perpetuate the feelings of fear.

103: Your 1st Step In Becoming A Millionaire Starts Today

In today’s episode, I wanna talk about your 1st step in becoming a millionaire starting today. I work with women who have big dreams. I’m not just talking about 7 figures, I’m talking about game-changing status. To those women who have a tremendous vision for their lives. I know that they are going to make it happen. So stay tuned!

(1:45-1:59) Now one of the first steps when working with a new client is typically, “Tell me about your dream day exercise.” You know the exercise where you share your million-dollar lifestyle.

(2:15-2:37) So after my client is done dreaming, I ask “How can you start living that millionaire lifestyle now? Like right now?”. 99% of the time, my client would usually tell me “Huh? What do you mean? I do have money now, you know. That’s why I’m hiring you as my mentor and coach to guide me, right?”.

(2:40-3:16) Then I ask again “How can you start living your millionaire lifestyle right now?” I insist that you, and also my clients, to make room right now for what’s to come. Because if your mind is completely clotted you must declutter in order for you to be able to receive. If you don’t seed right before you can achieve it, then how are you going to visualize it and eventually achieve it.

(3:19-3:50) So I just wanna tell you something that will blow your mind. The psychological reason why making space for a million-dollar lifestyle right now is so important because if you act as if and if you see it before you achieve it, it allows you to manifest your dreams because you are taking a leap of faith. You act on faith. It requires you to expect things to come to you as if you already had what do you want.

(3:51-3:56) But I just wanna tell you this, “Money does not make people happier”.

(4:05-4:19) Now psychologists can measure the levels of people’s happiness through instruments such as inventories and assessments. Here are some more complex statistics that from the research I think that drives the point home.

(4:20-4:31) The key thing here is there is no difference in the levels of happiness between a person that makes 50 thousand dollars and 50 million dollars.

(4:56-5:12) Your happiness levels don’t change, no matter how high your income climbs. So that extra money you make isn’t going to bring extra happiness. I mean the key to happiness is really finding happiness right now.

(5:26-5:41) Happiness is about how you can bring the joy into the present moment. So it’s time to step into the joy of what your future lifestyle will afford you because you can have a piece of it right now.

(5:45-6:02) You don’t have to wait. So here’s your assignment, how can you start living your million-dollar lifestyle right now? Pick one in your life that becomes a non-negotiable expense or a non-negotiable gift.

(6:03-6:21) For example, want to travel monthly? Well, start by saving so you can have a trip at least once a year. Imagine driving a really fancy car? Well, rent one from a luxury dealership or car dealer for the weekend.

(6:25-6:55) Start to strategize how you can delegate tasks to an assistant to give you more time freedom. And go to the resource https://www.instanttribeleader.com/ . Now, I want you to go there to grab the project kits and the workbooks that can help you to be delegating out like 80% to your to-do list to give out to your assistant so that you can make money online and function in your zone of genius.

(7:01-7:16) This is really very important. If you want only to work 20 hours a week, go to https://www.instanttribeleader.com/. As always, figure out which task you can delegate, automate, and eliminate to work more with less.

Key Takeaways:

Declutter your mind
Money does not make people happier.
Live that million-dollar lifestyle.
The key to happiness is really finding happiness right now.
Delegate tasks to an assistant to give you more time freedom.

102: 10 Ways You're Showing The Universe You're Not Confident And Not Worthy Of Living An Abundant Life

In today’s episode, I wanna share with you 10 ways you’re showing the universe you’re not worthy of living an abundant life. Now, do you feel like you’re not worthy of having an abundance or happy life? Are there ways you’re showing the universe that you’re not confident, and unworthy?

Make-do Solution

(1:25-1:31) Just over the weekend, something happened to my studio. There were a lot of flies in the studio.

(1:50-2:01) And they were all flying around in the room. It’s those very small flies and these are the flies that we find in the toilet. So we tried to clean it ourselves.

(2:12-2:21) There were so many things that we did ourselves. And after the cleaning, it did not get better.

(2:38-2:56) So it can get really quite scary. And finally, after many days of staring at those flies, I finally called a cleaning company or a pest company who specialize in getting rid of pests to help us.

(3:06-3:34) And they came around with their giant machine and it took less than 15 minutes and they cleared everything and that cost us $200. Now, $200 to solve the problem. In fact, remove the problem immediately and completely thus saving me the torture of having flies flying around me during my recordings.

(3:40-3:49) But I have to admit, I was first reluctant to pay it because I thought that I could do it myself and get my partner to do it myself.

(3:50-4:01) As I was coaching with clients this week, I told this story repeatedly because as women entrepreneurs we often look for the Make-Do Solution.

(4:04-4:09) We feel like we should know how to do it alone.

(4:13-4:49) We not only try to do the thing ourselves and we try to do it for good measure. Now, these might be trivial things, everyday things- trivial, small, tiny. But trust me, If every time you choose the cheaper option or what we call the economy class option rather than the VIP version, you’re telling the universe that you’re not ready for more. That you’re not confident to receive more. You’re just trying to find ways, so-called for value or trying to save your money.

(5:12-5:31) So we try to make things difficult for ourselves because we are reluctant to pay the money for the right solution that can solve in minutes. And we think that we should do it ourselves or deep down we don’t believe that we deserve the very best yet.

10 Examples

(5:50-6:03) In your business and career, try to do everything yourself from websites to PR, paying bits and pieces of money for piecemealing solutions together that don’t quite work.

(6:05-6:14) Being reluctant to higher help or outsource or delegate, because we’re just too busy and besides nobody can do it like me.

(6:16-6:26) Sticking with the web designer or graphic designer that doesn’t work for you anymore because you feel bad about leaving or asking for what do you really want.

(6:29-6:56) Waiting to get a new laptop, iPad, iPhone because you can’t justify the expenses yet or you don’t feel ready for the best equipment. Or maybe someone is telling you you shouldn’t spend your money on an iMac 2020 latest version because the earlier version just before the new version is released is going to be way much cheaper.

(6:58-7:13) Having sub-standard hate shots, business cards, websites, and being too embarrassed to send them to potential clients. Not having a dedicated space for your business for the fear of inconveniencing other people.

(7:15-7:34) Using a very lousy chair that doesn’t help you with your posture. Doesn’t allow you to sit longer hours in comfort and then pay and spend a fortune in going to chiropractic or going for Tui Na or Tie ta.

(7:36-7:49) Life in general. Skipping lunch or feeding yourself with leftovers. Feeling terrible as a mother for putting your kids in Daycare just to get some “me time” to work on your business.

(7:50-8:06) Feeling guilty about getting a babysitter or a part-time cleaner in, but getting frustrated with the messy house and spending your Saturday’s and Sunday’s cleaning or fighting with your partner about whose turn is it to clean the toilet.

(8:08-8:14) Being loyal to a hair or beauty person even if you aren’t happy with the service anymore.

(8:16-8:24) Resenting your partner because they always seem to buy new clothes, new shoes, when they need them without feeling guilty about it.

(8:25-8:42) Putting off Health maintenance like dental, optical because you’re scared of the cost. Wearing outdated clothes or glasses or feel like laser is something that other people do, but not you.

(8:45-9:34) So all these things I’ve just mentioned, where in your life and business are you trying or are you at today honestly? I mean the good news is every time you choose the VIP option, every time you choose to honor yourself, to love yourself, to take care of yourself first, and you take care of your time first, and let’s face it, your mental health. The universe rewards you. Sometimes that costs money, sometimes it’s inconvenient, and yes sometimes you will feel guilty. But you know what my dear? Take action. Pick one thing in your day-to-day life that is causing you unnecessary waste of energy and immediately upgrade it.

(10:07-10:25) I know that I love myself, and I set myself free. And this is my time and I’m ready for the next step. And for you, if you’re feeling tired, you’re feeling frustrated with your not enough time, not enough freedom, book in the Virtual Assistant. Delegate. Outsource.

(10:36-10:51) Go to https://www.instanttribeleader.com/ . Go grab those project kits on how to hire a virtual assistant. What is the systems and process you can set up, what are the things you can do with your VA. All the project kits and workbooks are there ready for you.

(11:02-11:14) And for you who has not even thinking about updating your branding shots, you just want to save money. You know what? Lock in the new date for those headshots. Go for it.

(11:15-11:42) Go through your closet, and really put away or give away those things that is really economy. Then it will have a huge impact in your manifesting ability, your ability to receive because you are subconsciously telling yourself that, “Yes! This is my time and I’m ready for the next step.” And you are showing the universe that you are worth more than that and you will be rewarded for it.

(11:45-11:57) We all have a part to play in this. This is your time and you are ready for the next step. The more you take action in a consistent way the faster you build momentum and really grow your business.

Key Takeaways:

Try to do everything yourself.
Delegate.
Outsource.
Choose to love yourself first.
Upgrade and take action.

101: What Else? The Powerful Question To Attract Even More Luck And Abundance

We all go through stages of feeling bad about ourselves. Do you have those days when you are convinced that everything you do is crap? And you are never going to make it anyway so why bother anyway?

(2:25-2:38) Start with “I’m proud of” and all the important question is “What else?”. Now you have to keep asking yourself that question until you have 50 success.

(2:43-2:56) Or something that you can talk about positively and celebrate it. I would say something like wins, having big wins. So you can do this exercise at any time.

(3:21-3:30) The list of, I would say, wins is important. But the question “What else?” is extremely important.

(4:26-4:27) Keep celebrating.

(4:40-4:44) Keep asking and keep asking and don’t give up.

(4:46-5:07) I would say bragging, celebrating your success, celebrating small wins, is good for you. It’s emotional health, my dear. It’s awesome to remember everything. It’s great for manifesting to acknowledge your wins. Big and small so that you can attract.

(5:12-5:47) Work on a mix of business and personal. As long as you get 30 to 50 good things. Now if you do this by yourself, eventually you’ll run out of steam or you just get distracted by your handphone notifications and move on to something else. For best results, you need me to be with you. Book a coaching call with me http://www.soulrichwoman.com/clarity-callor you need a partner to hold the space to gently ask you “What else?”.

(6:14-6:16) Now here are just some of mine:

(6:17-6:26) Number 1, we have created our program that is funded by our government, what we called Skills Future Credit.

(6:38-6:46) Two, our podcast has now listeners and followers in 56 countries within a single year.

(7:17-7:28) Share it with me, okay? I will love to hear them. And next time when you’re having a bad day, have a read over everything that’s awesome that you’ve accomplished.

(7:31-7:39) Imagine me right now saying to you this “What else?” every time you get stuck.

(7:46-8:12) Money blocks and being a Soul Rich Woman blueprint are just an important topic for female entrepreneurs and women leaders and we all have a responsibility to clear them and not just for ourselves but for the rest of our communities as well. We all have a part to play in this. This is your time and you are ready for the next step. The more you take action in a consistent way, the faster you build momentum and really grow your business.

Key Takeaways:

Keep asking yourself “What else?”
List up to 50 successes you’ve accomplished.
Keep celebrating your success.
Don’t give up.
Take action.

100: MMS Mindset Success At Different Stages Of Your Business

Welcome to today’s show with Genecia Alluora- author of Make It Happen, Speaker, and the founder of Soul Rich Woman. In today’s episode, she will talk about mindset issues and different stages of your business. Stay tuned as she will share with you the 5 stages of your business and the mindset issues that you might face.

Stage 1

(1:45-1:47) Courage to own what did you do

(1:52-2:11) So action will be to put your job title or your desired title on your email signature. You will start to see it every day and to start to believe it in yourself. Now, this is coming from a space where you feel like a fraud, you feel like an impostor. So I want to help you.

(2:14-2:33) Maybe you are still in a job so it’s tough to juggle everything. Stressing about getting your first client or charging people. Making the transition from free to paid can be tricky but just pick a number and try it out.

(2:34-2:50) Procrasti branding- that means you add procrastination and branding. That means you keep getting stuck thinking you need a website to get started or get business cards. Just focus on getting your first client.

(2:51-3:08) Procrasti funnels- that means you have procrastination about building your funnels and you’re thinking what is the funnels that you need to build to get started or to launch your first landing page. You know what? Just focus on getting your first client.

(3:09-3:30) You might be still thinking of being your practice business. That’s okay, that means you’re practicing. It’s all good practice and it all counts. Be confident that your previous work experience or your practice, even though it failed in your businesses as all experiences count.

(3:32-3:38) The roller coaster of terror of having no income from the start.

(3:54-4:06) Say yes to everything. It’s all expensive. Throw everything at the wall and see if it sticks. So just try, go out there, never just filter everything.

Stage 2

(4:21-4:27) Here are some of the mindset issues that you might face in stage 2.

(4:29-4:30) Fear of being visible.

(4:36-4:55) You post on social media, you write on the Instagram you’ll get haters. Or if you do videos, people will criticize you. Now the fear stops when you’re doing more things in your business, well anyway, the reality is it probably won’t happen for a while anyway.

(4:56-5:02) You might struggle being consistent in your marketing because you are still figuring out your target market.

(5:16-5;36)Just tweak as you go along. Quit thinking and start doing. Just keep going and pay attention to what resonates with you and get a mentor to kick your ass as well. Now if you do nothing, to be honest, you will not be able to figure out what your audience really wants.

(5:38-5:44) Boundaries might start to be a problem with clients because you’re so excited to even have them.

(6:02-6:11) Anyway, this is priceless learning for you. When you are going through this journey and learning to set boundaries and when to say no.

(6:14-6:27) Procrastination and fear of creating passive income products even though you know that you should. Because you’re starting to see the limitations of doing one on one work.

(6:47-6:49) Less time, less freedom.

(6:53-6:59) You’re still learning everything yourself. So you’re thinking you could start to delegate some stuff out.

(7:07-7:21) You start to invest in yourself more maybe with a coach or masterminds. Start to say maybe to everything. Think about if it fits into your business before you say yes to opportunities.

Stage 3

(7:37-7:45) CEO is not Chief Executive Officer. In this stage 3, it’s called Chief Everything Officer.

(7:46-7:56) You want to not become Chief Everything Officer. You want to be the Chief Executive Officer, and that is key.

(7:57-8:13) You’re also gaining momentum. Time to raise your prices to make sure you have the right clients. Boundaries with clients make you realize you need to tighten up some of your legal processes. Now is the time to make sure you have your contracts sorted out.

(8:16-8:23) You’ll learn this by trial and error. Maybe through nightmare clients. Then again these are priceless lessons.

(8:25-8:27) Start outsourcing things that stress you out.

(8:38-8:49) You start to tighten up the costing, the cost center of your business. Maybe you get a little bit too excited about earning money that you get crazy spending on personal development.

(8:51-8:53) Now it’s time to start paying yourself salary in Stage 3.

(8:12-9:19) Start to say NO to things that aren’t in your zone of genius or things that don’t work for your business anymore.

Stage 4

(9:24-9:37) Loneliness. At this stage, it might be hard to find the right groups or masterminds for you. You need to be upgrading and make sure that you’re surrounding yourself with people with similar energy and vision of mindset with you.

(9:39-9:51) Copycats might be a problem at this stage 4. Well, people are noticing what you’re doing and then you’ll get people flat or accidentally copying you including all or current clients.

(9:53-9:57) Either don’t take it personally or get legal.

(10:16-10:22) Fame and popularity. You might get fangirls who love and adore you.

(10:31-10:52) Burnout. Now, some people get super burned out at this stage and wonder how they’ll keep going at this pace forever. And that is why I wanna tell you that you must build your freedom lifestyle. F-word, being fabulous, having freedom, financial independence, and a happy family. Work towards that.

Stage 5

(10:56-11:09) Embracing your role as a leader and being willing to take on the role in your communities. Be willing to hold the space for people. Set rules in your business in how you want to interact with people.

(10:31-11:37) You start to get more brutal with your time and evaluate opportunities with more business.

(11:50-12:10) You’ll learn how to manage your money better with financial advisers or accountant, learning to be a rich person. Some people look to retirement. What’s next? Maybe you don’t hustle as much. The momentum is hard to switch off here if you have been consistent for many years.

Epilogue

(12:17-12:25) Earlier on I’ve just mentioned to you the 5 different stages that really reflect the mindset issues that can pop up for you.

(12:49-13:01) We all have a part to play in this. This is your time and you are ready for the next step. The more you take action in a consistent way the faster you built your momentum and really grow your business.

Key Takeaways:

All experiences count.
Quit thinking and start doing.
Learn to set boundaries.
Learn to say NO.
Start outsourcing things that stress you out.

98: Tell Your Story That Creates A Movement That Will Change Lives With Dr. John Tan

We are very happy to have Dr. John Tan here today to share his journey with us about why he did podcasting. I have known Dr. John for the last 20 years and he is great.

Podcasting

(2:02-2:22) It opens itself up to different people. So firstly it would be the people who want to listen to your story, and there are these curious people out there that you do not know yet. Right? So I think the possibility is more of ourselves to believe that we have.

(2:24-3:17) Genecia first approached me I was like “Woah! Podcasting”. What was the medium all about? And I say “wow! There’s a lot of things to work”. Prepare technically and they keep telling me, “No it’s not. You have a story and the story needs to be heard. It’s just a method of like in this morning going through, how you structure the story and how you present it, and then later the technical aspects that come with all the other details. But the important thing is that you have something that you wanted to share.” so for me, it’s more like, at this stage of my life, it’s about living a legacy of knowledge and information and lessons I’ve learned. Primarily from mistakes, from errors, and all that.

(4:32-4:43) The best thing to do is just to take the leap first and try and then put it out there. Put the message out there, like a test bait, then you could just adjust accordingly.

(5:02-5:12) It has been a fantastic journey. Yes, you have to put in the work and the effort. You have to put in that kind of focus.

How many episodes have you recorded? And where can I access these?

(6:23-6:55) Over the cost of few days concentrated, I had set aside some time. And so I think it took me about 3 to 4 days of recording and the whole journey was I think 55 episodes if I’m not mistaken, or 56. And then after that, it’s launched. So the whole idea then is you get into a group rather than spacing it out.

How Dr. John breakthrough his mindset

(8:05-8:11) A lot of it has to do with a certain sense of how perfect you want it - Perfection.

(8:22-8:24) The thing is to just let it go.

(8:27-8:33) Do not be worried about errors and then I realized maybe I should have a script.

(8:42-8:57) To in order to do that you need like x number, like 10,000 words. So can you make it if you write the script for everyone it’s gonna be a long time. So I did that for like about three episodes. It took a lot of effort.

(9:13-9:16) So for the next, 4th episode, well I just told my story.

(9:31-9:36) So here’s the thing. When you have that flow, very relaxed, wow!

(9:41-9:43) And before you know it you have your episodes.

(9:51-10:08) Go for excellence, yes, but not to the point of error-free perfection, it’s not gonna happen. Secondly, you have your story, let your story come up, and then from there it just flows, right? And do in batches because it does help it.

Focusing on one specific content

(11:00-11:04) I think it’s more of bearing in mind who the audience is.

(11:31-11:33) So it comes out very naturally.

(11:38-11:43) You have that person in mind at first, and then from that, you develop.

(12:28-12:38) The question would be firstly, “Why?”. And my answer was very simple, rather in a form of another question, another question is, “Why not?”

(12:41-12:46) There’s not so much agenda as getting the job done.

(12:49-12:52) And I believe Genecia and the team has done it very very well.

How do you feel when you launched 55 episodes?

(13:53-13:57) Number 1, I felt very fulfilled and accomplished that this portion is done.

(14:06-14:18) The responses that came back, it was slowly. And when the full episodes came on and five came out and it was posted in more and more platforms.

(14:24-14:26) And then the world starts spreading and sharing.

(15:15-15:18) When you want to do it, then you have to put your heart and mind to it.

What are the struggles or objections you have before doing the podcast?

(16:11-16:31) Number one, I don’t have enough things to say. Number 2, my voice don’t go enough. Number three, will people listen? And all these were just anxieties.

How are you going to find time to really work on your Season 2?

(18:31-18:42 ) I think I’m looking forward to getting those equipment in, and then find a way possible of doing it from my own computer with support.

(18:45-19:04) Number 2, of course, I’m listening to what the needs are. And they have shifted a little bit particularly because of this covid pandemic. There are certain sets of anxieties and certain fears that people may have that can be addressed in messaging as well.

(19:07-19:18) The issue then will be of prioritizing and putting the scheduling done correctly and then having the equipment support.

When there’s so much thing to share, how do you do it in 10 minutes?

(20:35-20:51) Actually what I’ve found is that the topics, you just need to split up. And the only thing there is about having a few parts to the same topics but with different aspects. And having a story and a lesson to it is already 10 minutes.

(20:53-21:01) I also know that you need to bunch it so that it is just nice for consumption. It’s not too long, maybe boring.

(21:04-21:18) This is where I said if you have the life experiences, and I think you guys have, then it’s a method of looking into content and maybe draw the appropriate diagram.

(21:24-21:33) That’s where when the coaches come in. and to ask you questions about what can be flashed out deeper more according to your audience.

(21:35-21:58) For me, in ten minutes, just one point. The point is enriched with a story, with a lesson, and then a call to action or possibly what can be in the next episode. And so before you know you have about 4 or 5 episodes because you’ll do a wrap-up at the end as well.

How was the responses from your family? And did they have any objections when you shared with them that you’re gonna do the podcast?

(23:14-23:24) No objections at all. Basically, they see it as an extension of my work and my sharing. I’ve been devoting all these years to helping.

(23:27-23:39) I think one of the things that’s still not done yet which is getting a book out. So the next best thing to getting a book out is that you’re getting you’re podcast out.

(23:59-24:03) To me, it has been an encouraging journey.

Season 2

(24:40) Think of going deeper and I’ll show thinking more about what’s happening and this Covid experience for many people and how are they dealing with uncertainty and the inner changes.

(25:29-25:40) I think I will grapple the depth. And half issues to talk about it. Bite-sized again. That can be applied the moment you hear the podcast.

What is the most rewarding path of your podcast journey?

(25:51-26:00) It’s the ability to have my messaging or my message that I want to share.

(26:02-26:17) Coach or audiences that I didn’t even expect. So one of the heads I’m running is actually a volunteer with the commonwealth… commonwealth group of nations but on the youth work aspect.

(26:45-27:04) So for me, the rewarding part is like “Wow!” the impact… the potential of the impact is even beyond your imagination. So my intended audience were these. But then now is spread into a much broader audience. So you have a story that has to be told.

(27:43-27:56) Other than that the point is that your messages has a potential of going out and touching more lives than you ever can think about. So that’s been pretty exciting for me.

(28:46-28:58) So that potential, I mean if I were to look the other way, if I didn’t do it then the opportunity will have never come. So you’ll never know. So just take the leap and do it.

What is your next milestone in your legacy?

(29:42-29:47) If getting through on Season 2, and then looking.

(29:51-30:06) “How was your ebook?”. “How does the ebook get, you know, conceptualize? Though even be part of my legacy.” So I think that’s probably the things that I’m looking out for now.

Key Takeaways:

Just take the leap and do it.
Your messages have a potential of touching more lives.
When you want to do it, then you have to put your heart and mind into it.
Always believe.
If I didn’t do it, an opportunity will never come.

FWEP00097- Untold Story of The World's Greatest Women With Genecia Alluora

Today’s woman grew up with little money and was supporting herself by the age of 14. During her teenage years, she was bullied and her self-esteem struggled. However along the way she was introduced to modeling and the world of beauty. She entered pageants and began winning. Her self-confidence grew as she won Ms. Singapore and was one of the Top 3 finalists in the Ms. Universe pageant. She dug deep into entrepreneur endeavors with Image consulting and a Cafe retail chain. There were partnerships along the way that worked and some that didn’t. But through it all, she never gave up on women and her ability to elevate them. Today through her Soul Rich Women brand, she mentors thousands of women to bring their business and leadership brands online. It is my pleasure to introduce you to Genecia Alluora.

Turn your mess into your message

(3:14-3:30) My first intuition and instinct was to resist because what my mother said sounds like “neggy” and a net to me. But when that got into my heart, that was when I started to see light at the end of the tunnel.

(3:36-3:40) Being the youngest instructor in Singapore, many people laughed at me.

(3:45-4:29) I had to work doubly hard as a young person. And keeping in mind that even though we have passed, gone through the journey of not having enough and how can I turn this courage around to become something that I can share along, to my class students and also the people that surround me. So turning your mess into your message did not start at the right footing, it was only through self-reflection and knowing what upholds my mother’s values that helped me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Because I truly believe that when we have a diamond that is within us, we all deserve to shine.

Who you choose as your friends

(4:49-4:58) I think there are 3 things you wanna be looking at. Number 1, is not to look into the quantity of friends but look into the quality of friends.

(5:01-5:16) Friendships are bound to a test of time. You definitely need to know what and who to talk to and what to talk to. The easiest way for you to move into a group where friends can support you is to look for a ready community.

(5:33-5:40) Number 3, really look for people who are in a small group. That means you are doing beta testing.

(5:45-5:55) Never put all the eggs in the basket and get out there because you don’t know who to trust and that is always a question. Of course, we want to give the benefit of the doubt to people around us.

(5:57-6:05) But like I said, everything is built through the test of time. So what you can do is always start with a beta group.

(6:14-6:28) In business, when you’re moving online as a newbie and you’re bringing to … ready to build your personal brand, look for a small group of 3 to 5 people whom you can mastermind with. A Beta group, a mastermind group, where you can feel it.

(6:37-6:39) Be a giver and not just a taker.

(6:45-6:58) So you really need to look into how you can contribute as well to the group so that everyone grows together to the next level, right? Because alone you are strong, together we are unstoppable.

What did you learn that you’d want to tell other women about going into a partnership with someone?

(7:33-7:37) When you do a business with friends, you must first have rules.

(7:39-7:50) What is a “roles and responsibilities”? I think that would be one thing. That would be very clear. Secondly, you want to have the ability to have, you know, when you make money, what happens to the money.

(7:50-8:09) discuss about monetary issues. Discuss about money stuff, money ideas, money values, how can you cope with money. What if there are no customers, who's responsible for what, and how are you going to manage the cash flow of the entire business, which is the lifeline of the business. It’s not just about the profits that you are making but the cash flow.

(8:17-8:41) Last but not least, put in the effort and contribute. Be a giver and not just a taker. Do your part, play a hundred percent all out. If it doesn’t work, you will know by the end of the day. But at least you know that you’ve given your hundred and ten percent to the business, through that game, through that friendship, to that vision that you have in front of you.

(9:25-9:43) We will tend to trust women and we tend to trust more easily and we want to do more in the way that we want to contribute. In the end, sometimes, we are taken advantage of because we don’t know how to set personal boundaries and that is something that you really need to learn.

(9:54-9:58) Learn to agree to disagree

(10:01-10:02) and be okay with that.

Do you feel happy today? And what have you done differently to achieve this?

(10:15-10:25) I definitely feel so much happier today. I think being myself is one of the greatest gift that I have given myself since I have moved out from the entertainment industry.

(11:07-11:22) So really learning to accept myself and loving myself even more and be aligned with my mind, body, and soul to truly embrace that “Hey! This is who I am. Take it or leave it.”

Value Exchange

(12:46-12:58) So value exchange, to my realization and through my self-reflection, simply means what value do you put on the table when someone sponsors you. What is the benefit? What’s in it for them?

(13:12-13:48) Look into play “win-win”. Now “win-win” simply means that if they give you something, for example, they sponsor you series of trainings, they gonna get you grooming and department, and help you to present yourself beautifully and perfectly to win that title on stage or win that business. Then perhaps after you win, contribute back by being their ambassador. Let’s say for example 3 months, half a year, or even a year for X number of hours based on the value of the duties that you are, kind of, matching in with the goods that has been sponsored to you.

(13:50-13:52) As a way of Value-exchange.

(13:53-13:58) So for me, it’s definitely helped me to choose my sponsors wisely.

(14:05-4:10) First and foremost, I choose based on a few criteria. First, your values must be aligned with mine.

(14:18-14:19) Number two, who is your target audience?

(14:25-14:30) Are there people whom I hope to reach that I wasn’t able to and you are able to do that?

(14:31) Number three,

(14:33-14:50) How am I going to help you to spread your message of the awareness of brand message to my audience as well, and to my followers as well. So when you have these questions in your mind, it becomes a win-win situation. And that is my understanding of value exchange.

What’s the first thing businesswomen need to do if they want their business to go from offline to online?

(15:42-15:43) Find a coach.

(15:48-16:01) For me, I will take this path and I would tell myself I can go from this path the earliest and the fastest. I think that to me would shortcut my success even at a younger age, or earlier age.

(16:07-16:14) I’m very happy of my life at this moment. So, I’ve already done my mentorship. So the first step will be “Find a mentor, find a coach”.

(17:15-17:18) See it as an investment to triple, to quadruple your growth.

(17:25-17:28) Well if you don’t put in the effort, nothing’s gonna work.

(18:00-18:05) If you want to succeed you have to make things work. You have to take the power into your hands.

(18:07-18:28) Find a way to do one thing. I think that’s something that a lot of people cannot do because they are like, fear of missing out. The FOMO effect.

(19:20-19:30) So, when you look into moving online, pick a better ground where you know you can be victorious in. That you can play to win.

(19:39-19:50) Look around you. Everyone that is successful online is only doing one thing and they’re known for that one thing before branching out into other things.

(20:27-20:41) So to be successful in the online space, start with one. Pick one and get started and that would be my advice for you. Last but not the least, go back to the community and that is why I built Soul Rich Woman.

(21:30-21:47) If you choose to evolve as a phoenix and be rebirth in a different version of yourself, that is when you will grow and go to the next level. Have that diamond that is within you and you deserve to shine. So make it happen.

As a successful businesswoman, what role do you see a man playing in your future?

(22:08-22:12) A man, for me, is basically still a leader

(22:15-22:40) So, I mean it’s just kind of, like men and women coming together and completing that space, fulfilling a certain purpose on our planet earth. But when I made a statement that men, “I don’t need a man”, I mean in that context where I’m financially independent, I can do the things that I want to do, and I can choose the lifestyle that I want. So I make myself happy first. I love myself first.

(22:58-23:01) So it functions to me as a man, like a partnership.

(23:08-23:19) A man who comes to my life is a partner, a co-dependency. Where he love himself, he’s confident, he knows what he stands for. I know what I stand for, and we come to a common ground.

(23:34-23:49) So when we are truly aligned, that space will continue to flourish and blossom to many other circles that we are looking forward into our life. So for me having a man means a partnership. And that to me is long term.

Journey to greatness

(24:02-24:27) I really believe that success is never about glorious wins. You can see what I have now, it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Always look into deeply, what is under the tip of the iceberg. As always to let, to take a step back of whatever I built to let other women shine as well. Remember, alone you are strong, but together we are unstoppable.

(24:59-25:20) Women, we must come together and work together to revolutionize what you are thinking about. The change you want to become. The dreams that you want to achieve. We must come together in the space that we are good, the space that we’re gonna be amazing, and let’s shine together as one.

Key takeaways:

💎 Always remember quality over quantity.

💎 Be a giver, not just a taker.

💎 Always look into play “win-win”

💎 If you want to succeed, you have to make things work.

💎 When you don’t put in the effort, nothing’s gonna work.

(4:31-4:45) Season 2 was quite a journey for me. At the backend of it all, I would say I have succeeded in completing it. And despite the disruptions.

(4:47-5:18) The reason for me saying that is that we have laid up four recording days at the studio. And some of the days that we were about to record, we were interrupted to buy some renovation works that were done in the neighbors and that was a tough one because we have to time our recording around their renovation and it end up in a day where we could not record at all.

(5:21-5:32) The four days that were set aside we completed in actually 3 days minusing of that one day that was disrupted.

(5:33-5:36) So what then has taught me is that it’s possible.

(5:42-6:02) And this is particularly meaningful to me because it just reminds me that despite challenges we can overcome. As one of my favorite mentors, coaches like this, “Our problems may be tough, but remember we are always tougher.”

(6:04-6:06) I’ve managed to complete Season 2

(6:10-6:25) despite having a very busy schedule of presenting workshops and writing materials and training people. And all of that I’m so glad that I was able to accomplish

(6:27-6:41) Something that i wanted to do for quite a long bit and it has further embedded my legacy. And it has further given me the materials that are ready recorded down.

(6:44-7:05) A great sense of accomplishment that I have finished Season 2. And I’m also very very glad to be working with my new podcast coach Janet Aisyah and she has been a great help being beside me and giving me pointers.

(7:15-7:31) I believe that as the Season progress we have little episodes actually getting into a better rhythm and I think it’s all kudos to my podcast coach Janet Quek.

(7:41-7:58) There were some objections, there were some obstacles in the preparation. Well I’ve finished Season 1 and had already mixed some sort of loose plans to record Season 2.

PANDEMIC

(8:00-8:10) Along came the pandemic, The CoronaVirus Pandemic, and that meant we had to make all kinds of adjustments.

(8:18-8:27) We can plan for the timing but we could not control it and so it came at a time where I had to contemplate

(8:29-8:31) doing this whole Season online.

(8:41-8:53) This was a challenge particularly during city breakout lockdown where we couldn’t go anywhere, we couldn’t get things delivered and all of that. So it was a big challenge.

(9:02-9:13) When face to face came in, and it meant that we could move about, there was the potential possibility of going to the studio to record it.

(9:16-9:22) Then there’s a big but because the “but” came from the wife who was concerned for me going out.

(9:24-9:28) Maybe when exposing myself into the community.

(9:31-9:39) That was slowly overcome by explaining to her the steps involved, what we were doing and all that.

(9:54-10:06) Moving into the studio and booking that 4 days that we could do the recording. So it was a learning process bit by bit.

Looking forward to “What’s next?”

(10:18-10:21) I have to choose the number of episodes.

(10:24-10:28) I had more material than I needed for this Season.

(10:31-10:37) The next point coming soon, will there be a Season 3? That’s a possibility. But before that.

(10:39-10:46) I had to then choose and decide the materials that I wanted to, to keep it concise to keep the rhythm going on, not to drag.

(10:53-11:13) When you got into a rhythm then I got into a pattern. I got to be able to know how to kind of demarket. How much material goes into each episode. Right, so that’s a learning point for me as well. And which then leads to, “Will there be a Season 3?” well it is highly possible.

(11:34-11:47) In the process of working, the mind gets stood up. The mind gets launched into new areas. So now in my mind I can almost see Season 3 forming.

(12:03-12:06) Going to it by conclusion for these whole Season 2

(12:09-12:13) My feelings has been something of a great accomplishment.

(12:15-12:24) because as part of my plan to leave a legacy of my lessons learned, I have embedded it further.

(12:34-12:43) Meaning that I have forever archived my materials into resources that can benefit more people.

(12:45-12:51) I’m really really thankful and grateful to the team, instantpodcastleader.com

(12:53-13:10) And if you really really have a need or urge to have your voice heard and listened to, and like me living a legacy then I strongly encourage you to sign up for the program.

(13:16-13:23) When we raise our voices together, the words become more than just a phrase.

(13:26) It becomes a movement and that our dreams are valid.

(13:36) That on your path, you are never denied. And you can be directed but you need to let your voice be heard.

Key takeaways:

Dreams are valid.
Look forward to what’s next.
It is possible to overcome challenges
We are always tougher than our problems
Let your voice be heard

95: Turn Your Fears Into Fuel In Podcasting With Deon Teh

FWEP00095- Turn Your Fears Into Fuel In Podcasting With Deon Teh

Today's special guest is Deon Teh. She is the winner of Elite Instant Podcast Leader Award as well as Platinum Instant Podcast Leader Award. She has done two Seasons of podcast bilingual. One season in english and one season in Mandarin. So today she’s gonna share with you from being a manager director of a company to beginning her journey of podcasting. Some of the fears and thoughts that she had and eventually overcame. And even though English is something that she had problems with, she thought that she would never be able to do it and yet she did it anyway. So let her story inspire you to turn your mess into your message and turn your fears into fuel.

Conquer your fears

(2:48-03:01) I truly agree that a podcast is not only about purely online presence but most importantly it helps me sort out my thinking on my past.

(3:13-3:23) I successfully use my second language in Greece to present in my show. Something which I never thought was possible.

(3:44-4:09) One of my colleagues was curious about what I was doing and asked me what it was for. I’m proud to have my own podcast. And in Season 1, it has 55 episodes and can listen on more than 20 platforms all over the world.

(4:24-4:35) As a leader in a company, I'm concerned about how to really do business online for this modern world.

(4:37-4:56) I used to rely on books as my mentor. I was able to learn a lot from books that I read and they directed me to what I am. However, I need someone that understands the market and trends that where I am.

(5:02-5:22) At first, I joined the Soul Rich Women Blueprint. And I learned how to use modern technology to promote our product. However, I was craving for what is the next and I decided to join 4in1 group coaching. And after that I want to be more focused.

(5:28- 5:48) I want to help my company to go online. Well, undergoing mentorship, Genecia told me that in order for me to help my company, I need to build my own brand first. Then I realized that I forgot to love myself first before loving others.

(5:50-6:08) I told Genecia that I wanted to publish my own book in the near future during our mentorship and she advised me to take up the podcast, which is the fastest way to boost my authority especially as I’m a leader to my company.

(6:12-6:24) I was not clear on my life purpose and journey. Through doing the podcast, I was able to find my direction and it was also a soul-healing journey for me.

(6:35-7:01) I was camera shy and I’m unable to express myself nicely if i were to be on a live podcast or a video recording. Of course, I have many fails before doing my work. People look at me, what if I cannot take it, the comments. With the help of my podcast coach Joanne Lee, I was able to overcome my fears.

(7:02-7:22) And since Soul Rich Woman helps with 95% of the work behind the scenes, the production system by them. And I don’t have to worry about any administration task, i just concentrate to write the script and dig deeper myself.

(7:31-7:50) Genecia, being my guide, told me that I can use my past experiences. Transform it to tell people my story, and people who listen can benefit from my experiences and have a guide also, and maybe can shortcut their necessary path

(7:58-8:20) How would people react? Am I sure I want to continue? And I’m not that professional as others that are well-trained. However, after discussing with Genecia, I have confidence that the team was helpful and helped me to overcome this and I went ahead to do my podcast show.

(8:22-8:56) I was also feeling anxious and uncomfortable about sharing my story and being truthful about what I feel deep inside. But realizing that this is me and people hearing my story, they suffer real deal. I still went ahead with everything that came from my heart. Understanding that my intention is to share and inspire, and not to criticize or destroy other people's lives.

(8:58-9:02) Gave me the courage to go out and do the podcast.

(9:04-9:21) Initially, I have to convert my writing for podcast episodes into english. I got tired. And so I have to use up a lot of energy, thinking of what to say and sitting on the table to think about my past.

(9:49-10:08) Having launched the podcast, I am also anxious about what would happen next. Then by going back to understand my intention and my goal that this would be about doing something positive for me and for others especially for the working mothers.

(10:09-10:20) And by knowing that I have a strong team of Soul Rich Womans to support me, my worries are temp and controlled.

(10:33-10:41) I feel that I am also blessed to have crossed paths with Soul Rich Woman team who could help me make it possible.

(10:42-10:56) Launching the podcast gave me great happiness. There I was able to share my message so instantly to the public. And I’m the first listener to my own podcast episode every week.

(11:12-11:33) And I continued to hide under my fears, I would have not touched people's hearts and most importantly my family’s hearts. I have also proven that this is never too late to learn something new. There’s no right or wrong but this is about taking action.

Key Takeaways:

Your dreams are valid.
It is time to get your voice heard
It is never too late to learn something new.
Overcome your fears.
Touch other people’s lives.

94: Get Your Brave On and Take Some Serious Biz Building Action Using Podcast With Dr Yong Hsin Ning

FWEP00094 Get Your Brave On and Take Some Serious Biz Building Action Using Podcast With Dr Yong Hsin Ning

Today's guest, we have Dr. Yong Hsin Ning. She is my mentee. She’s completed on the season of her podcast. Podcasting is something that I highly recommend the women in our community to embark on, because it’s relatively easier to share your content without showing your face. And I know that many of you are shy of showing your face. So I’ll let her share with you her journey, her lessons learned and some of the wrap up that she has for you. Enjoy today’s episode!

Impact of Embarking on Dr. Yong Hsin Ning’s journey

(02:26-02:42) The journey started with a conversation with Genecia, my business mentor. That pretty much went like this:

“Hey! Hsin Ning, are you interested in doing a podcast?”

“Oh. yeah sure! I love to talk.”

Ok, the rest is history.

(2:57-3:17) 10 months into my journey and I was obviously way off in my expectations, in a good way. Square Apple show now is downloaded by listeners across ten countries. I also received personal notes about how people are impacted by the messages in my podcast.

(3:44-4:10) When I started to prepare for the podcast, I had some ideas in mind, what I wanted to focus on which was around my success. Organizational change and my entrepreneurship journey. But increasingly I realized that everything and anything I wrote kind of converted to a framework that I used to see and do things differently.

(4:12-4:27) So after writing 55 episodes and about 82,500 words later, I developed the Square Apple Mindset framework which is a systematic way for people to see ten times more opportunities in their careers and businesses.

(4:36-4:45) This method helps people to see opportunities that they usually miss and it gives them the courage to take action and pursue those opportunities.

(4:54) And I developed a set of frameworks that sets me apart from other business advisers or change management consultants.

(5:03-5:20) Secondly, it helps me in developing valuable assets that I can use for my teaching and my business. I have repurpose podcast content into an ebook, into prompt cards, into teaching materials and I’m in the process of creating a digital course as well.

(5:31-5:50) The third and final impact is to other people. In a way, this impact is a different side of the coin from the first impact. The first impact talks about how I got clarity. This impact is about how this clarity, then translates to helping other people do things differently.

(5:52-6:00) My passion is to help people see things in a different light from what they have been used to. Especially for business owners and entrepreneurs.

(6:16-6:27) So by telling people, “You have to think out of the box.”, is very tough because people first, they don’t even know what’s in their box and they don’t know what’s outside the box. So it really doesn’t help.

(6:29-6:40) So the consistent feedback that I have from the people that I work with is that the messages that I shared is very particle. So it’s easy for people to apply it to their careers or businesses.

(6:42) The final impact that I want to share is that the podcast has been effective in helping me become a good coach to my audience who are really fellow entrepreneurs who are on their business building adventure.

Challenges to overcome

(7:21-7:31) The first obstacle for me is finding the time to write the podcast script. The way that I prepare for the podcast is to write out the entire script.

(8:28-8:42) You know when you aim high, you may fall a little short. But if you don’t aim high, you will fall very short. So setting a tangible goal and breaking it down into baby-steps help me overcome this obstacle.

(8:44-9:01) The second obstacle is figuring out what to write. So even though I can find the time to write, it’s not that easy to just write. Sometimes I don’t even have a block of two hours and I need to squeeze it in between meetings.

(9:02-9:13) I have done two things to overcome this obstacle. The first thing is to constantly look out for things and make note of the interesting stuff that I come across and I can write about.

(9:19) The second thing that I have done is to create a very structured template for my podcast script.

(9:45-10:01) This template is a lifesaver because I can actually start writing once I hit the computer. No doubt our podcast episodes will flow exactly in the same way but atleast all the big blocks of the content are there.

(10:04-10:06) It really, really saved a lot of time.

(10:12-10:22) Podcast is a really variable option for you to consider if you want to do something meaningful for yourself and for others.

Key Takeaways:

Podcasting can be your catalyst to change your life.
Always put in effort to prepare a podcast.
Less is more.
Set a goal.
Aim high!

FWEP00093 Quit Your 9 to 5 Job With Confidence And Invest In Yourself With Janet Aisyah Quek

Today we have a special guest. Her name is Janet Aisyah Quek. She is a corporate narrative employee with more than 25 years of experience in HR Asia-Pacific Region. And today she’s here to share with you her results and her journey of launching two years. I would say, the second year of her podcast show that has been batched because she is busy at work so we helped her to batch out her content and launch her second season of her show. So she’s here today to share with you her journey and her thoughts about the entire experience. I hope there’s something for you to think about on how you are creating your content, how you’re launching consistently, and be amazing! Remember you have a diamond that is within you and you deserve to shine.

Launching the Podcast Season 2

(02:05-3:08) Launching the Podcast Season 2 embetter my life instantly in 2020. I truly agree that our podcast is not only about building online presents but most importantly online credibility and recognition by showing up consistently. I have been “hey hunted” more than ten times directly from companies and recruiters in three months from Asia-Pacific, US, and Europe. Even in this Covid19 situation, I realized that my message has embetter more people than I ever thought it could now. We have listeners and followers in nine countries in just 3 months. After awarded platinum instant podcast leader, I have garnered more than a hundred likes in social media in one post and some friends commented that now I am like a queen and I have drawn attention to new connections who are keen to know what I am doing and how podcasts can help them.

(03:24-3:47) My children are now used to me doing my work as podcast host, though knowing that I have left my corporate job. Initially, my youngest son told me that doing podcasts is not working, but I have to explain to him how this will help me in my business. To bring my business online and also help me be seen as a leader online.

(04:07-5:13) I was given an opportunity to share a National Achiever Congress Virtual Global Platform with my Mentor Genecia and my podcast coach Joanne Lee. I have done more than 14 times facebook live in 2 months. This was not possible if I had not started my instant podcast leader show on Women Leadership. It has helped me to set a routine though I am not working and I have to do this recording from home. I get to learn about setting my mental state of mind and getting myself into the momentum to do my podcast recording. That is where I was able to complete my 2 years of podcast content in less than three months. As I keep the momentum to complete the season 2, I am able to think on the spot. Whatever topic that came to my mind and also the content is free-flow and because I have the proven structure system and process that I followed through from Season 1 to Season 2. This is possible that I am able to do it.

(5:16-5:29) When I got to start the podcast Season 2, I was not sure that this is something that I want to continue or just wait to see what results I have after launching Season 2 over a year before embarking on my Season 2.

(05:44-5:57) I realized that time flies so fast and it has been 9 months since I quit my last job. So I decided to use this time to continue Season 2 so that I will have 2 years ahead of content.

(06:06-07:01) And I saw how my Season 1 has helped me to get least inquiries and my first two sweet clients. I do not have any income since August 2019 as I left my corporate job to care for my late mom before she passed on late November 2019. I will be spending on my savings which meant to last longer should I not able to get a suitable job. And I had to cut down on other expenses during this time to continue to invest in myself and prepare myself. And then I thought that I really want to achieve my dream. Since I have been a corporate for more than 25 years, I want to achieve my dream as to be an online entrepreneur. And that is where I decided to continue to invest in myself even though I’m not working.

(07:04-7:24) When I realized that I can actually earn more the moment I have built my reputation online by showing up and having my voice heard. People will come to know who I am and what I stand for. People will start to support me, to trust me, just like Hey Hunters who approached me instead of me going to them.

(07:41-7:45) Before, I can’t even see any income coming in.

(09:03-9:18) Genecia and Joanne explained to me that they will support and guide me to do it online. I just need to follow what they need me to do. Having the whole Soul Rich Women team put me at ease knowing that I just have to focus on my script and they do the rest.

(09:29-9:42) As I’m not sure if I have enough topics to share in Season 2, my mentors, Genecia, spent time with me to draw out my experience and content and guided me to position myself with the topics I could share.

(10:04-10:26) Another issue I have was time. Even though I'm not working at the moment, I have to juggle when my helper had to go back to Manila to attend to her family due to an emergency matter. So I had to attend to my children, household, and cooking during that period of time when I was embarking on Season 2.

(11:01-11:08) On top of all those issues, I have fears on the outcome if I will be repeating myself in some of the topics.

(11:13-11:22) but because it has been my dream to reach out to my first 10,000 audience in 3 years, so I need to continue to build my content and keep me going.

(11:31-11:41) Podcast is a marketing vehicle that can be used again and again for life and it is also a legacy that I can leave for my children and grandchildren.

(11:59-12:16) Understanding that my intention is to share and inspire and not to criticize or destroy other people's lives. It gave me the courage to continue despite the hard work and for me to continue my Season 2 Podcast Recording.

(13:22-13:36) I have been getting attention on some responses that they see me as an expert in podcast leader online in Social Media and even refer someone to me to learn from me and to get to know how to do this podcast show.

(13:38-14:01) Having launched Season 2, I am also anxious about what will happen next. Somehow I’m looking forward to launching Season 3 with a new level of perspectives and new learning in the next phase. By going back to understanding my intentions and remind myself why I started, this will be about doing something positive for me and for others.

(14:09-14:38) So having your family and friends to support you in what you are doing, and giving you the understanding of your journey you wish to embark on is already a great encouragement. Not to mention that having the Soul Rich Woman Team is the Rocket Launcher. Knowing that you have people behind you who will look after your best interest and following up on you so that you don't fall to the little voices that inside your head.

(14:51-14:58) The Soul Rich Woman team makes you feel you are family and that they got your back every step of the way.

(15:25-15:39) When we raise our voices together, the world’s women power comes more than just a phrase. It becomes a movement. Know that your dreams are valid. And on your path, you are never denied and only be directed.

(15:41-15:42) Let your voice be heard! It’s time

Key Takeaways:

It is more important to do it now than doing it later.
Just keep going.
You have to stay focused.
Always remind yourself why you first started.
No matter how good you are, you need a team that will support and guide you.

FWEP00092 Building Recurring Income Streams with Dr. Yong Hsin Ning and Partner of Soul Rich Woman James Wee

Today I want to introduce a very special guest who has done this repeatedly in his numerous businesses and is very successful. He’s Mr. James Wee. He’s a serial entrepreneur who has owned numerous businesses including a packaging company, software development, coffee chain, digital marketing business, and his latest venture is Soul Rich Woman which is Southeast Asia's number one female entrepreneur network. Connecting 200,000 female women across the region. Since 2002, he has co-founded ten businesses with many crossing one million in sales in the 1st year. So you’ll hear 3 things from him. The first is how he determines whether a business is suited to generate recurring income. Secondly, what barriers that he faced and how he overcame them. Thirdly is the opportunities that this pandemic has given to SMEs to repivot their business model. So you’ll hear all this from the man himself, Mr. James Wee.

Opportunities to generate recurring revenue

Mr. James gave examples from his packaging world experience. Here’s what he said:

(7:55-8:08) so eventually, we realized that there’s a machine that can crumple. In a way that they achieved, they made it puffy. Then they can actually use it. And one big roll of, let’s say, I think 100 meters, they can crumple into, let’s say, half a container space.

(8:18-8:33) so the only way is if we can give them a machine that belongs to us. Whether use it lease or is it, give it to them for free. Depend on the volume they use. But we know that with this agreement signed they must continue to buy the raw material, paper raw material, from us.

(8:55-9:08) by doing so, we actually, so-called, can protect ourselves by not letting the competitor to come in so easily because unless they are asked willing to invest in a machine to continue to get the recurring income.

Problems encountered and how to overcome them

(11:51-12:01) Most importantly, our most difficult situation internally is investment of the machine. Externally is convincing the customer. This is something that we worked very hard.

(12:13-12:47) so these are the few things that we definitely going to face in any business. You want to do is outlay. Then the customer, convincing the customer to switch and is definitely something that a lot business owner need to look into if they were to look at change of business model in terms of time. But during my time we are just walking on trying to grow the business and want to have more stable business. That is why we are looking at all different situations and we spend for pre, half a year, 1 year, 2 years to figure it out and find out what is the possible consistent income that we can have. Then we come up with this. We call it the reoccurring income model.

Types of businesses that generate recurring revenue

Mr. James Wee said that all types of business can generate recurring income as long as you have a positive mindset.

(30:38) but I think every business wants to aspire to become one. It is not, again, I cannot really think of anything that is not possible unless, again, is your mindset. If you think it is not possible then, forever it is not possible. But if you think it is possible then you can actually do your own research, figure out more.

(31:13) I think something like that is very important that the business owner must mindset. They are willing to look into the business to find some reoccurring way of getting the business to be prepared year after year rather than just say not possible.

Strengthen business resilience in this post-pandemic world

Business owners took their businesses to the online world because of the pandemic.

(41:47-42:21) Let's say every other business, everything being equal. Those people who already have been embarking on their whole entire business into the online world meaning that getting leads online and getting things more visible online. And eventually, they’re having some software or a platform for them to be seen or being able to order their product or even introduce their thing in a video format. Everything online is important because moving forward, the retail outlets, of course, because of pandemic now has a big change. Actually, it’s just accelerating the change.

(43:20) During the pandemic, everything that is not possible now is happening.

(49:32-49:47) From my own experience, even in your services, but when you share a lot of things online, you are visible online you will be surprised that people want to do a partnership. And other countries will look for you to become your franchisee. But you must be visible online.

(50:36-) Online is already proven to be the future.

Key takeaways:

We must keep our eyes on the customer's nterest at all times.
A recurring income stream not only ensures a steady cash flow but also reduces costs.
There is no such thing as a "single move" to the end goal.
Think about all of the properties you have in your business as resources that can be monetized.
Since every business is different, you should be open-minded and always do your own research.

FWEP00091 Finding Your Why To Go From Stuck To Unstoppable With Genecia Alluora and Tina Powell

We are so honored to have Ms. Genecia Alluora. She has the most incredible origin stories. She is a former beauty queen (2006/2007 Singapore Miss Universe) and the Founder of Soul Rich Woman; South East Asia's leading network for female entrepreneurs connecting over 11,000 women and 200,000 subscribers across the region. She is also a successful business owner. She started a cafe retail chain and expanded it to three different countries with 18 franchises.

Where it all started

Things didn't seem to be as rosy as they are nowadays. Young Genecia had to support herself since she was 14 years old. Her family didn't have a good financial situation. To support her family and pay for her tuition, she teaches yoga, aerobics, and country line dancing. She was bullied by mean girls in her school. She was constantly mocked by them and it really affected her entire mindset.

(3:48-4:24) But my Mom was my pillar of support. She told me to turn my mess into my message. And to add that on, because I was the youngest instructor back in those days in Singapore and they, a lot of students, they were like, telling me “ Genecia, what can you teach us. You’re so young. You’re only 16. You’re nowhere near our age. What do you know about health and, you know, live sell?” And I couldn’t handle criticisms.

(4:40-4:47) You see this piece serves as a foundation for me because of all the trials and tribulations I have gone through.

(5:44-5:51) So from having nothing to being a winner on stage really transformed my life. So that in itself came to a point where my image consultancy business came to a standstill. I’m going to throw that away and move forward to go online.

(6:05) so I found a mentor who kind of guided me and showed me my blind spots and taught me what I do not know.

(6:24-6:44) I was literally everywhere. And to take the humble pie to say, “ okay, I don’t know what I don’t know. I have to learn. I am willing to learn”. And by this mentality, I was able to breakthrough. Look past beyond what I can’t see and was able to move effectively online.

(7:42-8:00) So I really believed that putting yourself in an environment where you could learn from the best by hiring a mentor as what I did could really shortcut your success. So eventually I started Soul Rich Women and that journey has been amazing.

Selecting A Mentor

(14:32-15:00) If you want a mentor who really wants to guide you. You have to go out there and seek for one and you must be willing to invest in yourself. Are you open to receive criticisms about your own shortcomings? And not allowing your mentor to sugarcoat words so that you feel good just because you paid him/her to be a mentor.

These are the important things to remember when selecting a mentor according to Ms. Genecia Alluora.

You must look for someone who has the results that you want.
You must be open to receive and be open to listen, not just on the superficial but really listen of a soul. What is it that they are speaking to you?
You can’t expect your mentor to swim the swim for you.

Soul Rich Women connecting from Zero to 200,000 women

(18:51-19:11) Before we hit 200,000 we were at zero. I think that’s the thing that always people look at the results but they forget how we got there, right? So I had failed in a lot of memberships that I’ve created.

By traveling to different Southeast Asia Countries for almost 2-3 years. Like three weeks in Malaysia, three weeks in Vietnam, three weeks in the Philippines, Ms. Genecia came back to Singapore and realized things.

(19:57-20:05) I discovered that women had a low earning social-economic status throughout the different countries.

(20:14-20:28) How can we support these women to own and love the F-word within their comfort range so that they could eventually progress? So we had eventually came to a number which was 12 dollars a month membership.

(20:39-21:08) And that’s when we had all the numbers. So it was not by my singular effort. It was through two main philosophies. I would say the first one was to love your customer more than you love your product. Number two is to really build your trust score because women tend to, we are a bit more skeptical and sometimes less trusting especially if it’s online and you really want to build that momentum.

(25:06-25:12) We are a Southeast Asia Female Entrepreneur Platform but we have already gone international.

Soul Rich Women

These pillar programs will help women to see different perspectives.

(26:54-27:11) I think the first one is Podcasting. The second one is Live Streaming. The third one is how do you create an online course. The fourth one is Digital Marketing. And the last one is how do you build your brand online and be confident about it.

(48:39-49:03) All these things would not have been done if not for that piece of authenticity and being real to myself. What is my true calling? So that’s Soul word comes into play. Be a Soul Rich Woman. So once you’re aligned with your soul, that’s when the richness manifests both from the inside as well as the outside.

Picking your own Platform

(54:07-54:14) You really have to remember, love your customers more than you love your product. So really identify where your customers are at.

(54:32) Define your own strategy.

(55:11-55:20) So if you decide that TikTok is not for you because “video” is not for you si be it. You don’t have to be there just because someone said you must be there.

Key Takeaways:

Success is never about glorious wins. It’s about taking one step back allowing other people to shine as well.
You have to make your own definition because you have a diamond that is within you and you truly deserve to shine.
When you want to start something, don’t feel that you are nothing. It’s ok to not be perfect for you to start.
Pick the battles where you can be victorious.
Always love your customers more than you love your products.

88: Simona Costantini Happiness Happens, Mindset and Podcasting

Simona Nicole is an Intuitive Business and Mindset Coach and host of the Happiness Happens Podcast. Simona is so passionate about helping heart-led self starters step into their magic and connect to their voice, their message and in turn their community in a significant way and grow their business. She does this by helping them find their confidence, master their mindset, get clear on their messaging, connect to their voice and build a business strategy that works so they can step out of their own way and see results.

Version 1:

05:08- 05:16 (8) I think the biggest piece to start all of it is having a desire for change and a desire for more.

05:17- 05:27 (10) If you have that desire within you that you want something different that you already have, that's the first key and first step to making any sort of change towards living a happier on purpose life.

17:04- 17:17 (13) In the beginning, it’s a lot of trial and error of what you like and what you don’t like. The biggest thing, though, that has fully helped me grow my business so much faster than I ever could was working with other coaches.

17:18- 17:25 (8) Because you see what other people do and you’ll learn what’s out there, you’ll learn what’s available to you, and you learn the tools and every resource from other people.

17:47- 17:53 (6) If you really listen to yourself and you tuned in to what you really want. What do you want?

18:02- 18:07 (5) And then for all of those different items, what I think about is ‘why?’ Why is it that I want this?

18:13- 18:18 (5) If the ‘why’ doesn’t make you excited to go into your business, I don’t think that’s the right self for you.

Quotes:

The biggest piece to start all of it is having a desire for change and a desire for more.
The biggest thing that has fully helped me grow my business was working with other coaches.
You see what other people do and you’ll learn what’s out there and you learn the tools and every resource from other people.

Deep connection to yourself is the most important relationship you can have.

87: Anik Singal Founder and CEO of Lurn Inc, Psychology Of Webinars

Version 1:

14:47-15:05 (18) Not what’s in it for them to buy your product that you’re going to sell at the end of the Webinar. What’s in it for them to stay for the presentation that you’re giving. We’ll sell later. Now, we’ll just have to convince them to stay. It’s another big thing people miss out on.

21:02- 21:12 (10) If you want to have a lasting impact on somebody, help them have three to five “Aha!” moments in your presentation and none more and none less.

23:12- 23:21 (9) If you’ve done a great job in a presentation, the person has warmed up to you, it can be a little uncomfortable to ask them for money unless you do the purpose of transition which is answer the why.

24:59- 25:07 (8) You do not get the sale on a pitch. You confirm a sale. Nobody is going to listen to your pitch unless they are already sold. Remember that.

Quotes:

You have to provide them with substance in conversation that’s relevant to them for them to remember you.
Communication with another human being, it doesn’t matter what mechanism you’re using.
If you want to have a lasting impact on somebody, help them have three to five “aha” moments in your presentation
“How much?” That’s a buying question but that’s also a value question. So, what they are really saying is not “How much”, they’re really asking is “how much is this worth to me”.

86: Sandra Bravo Manifest Your Dreams, Do Good and Be Amazing With Your Mindset

FWEP00086 Sandra Bravo Manifest Your Dreams, Do Good and Be Amazing With Your Mindset

Welcome to this amazing morning interview that we are going to do with this very super amazing lady whom I’ve met and she was a host of this virtual event that we did together, it was a success. I just felt that her energy was super amazing because when I researched about her, and I read about her, this lady is doing super amazing a lot of work.

Sandra Bravo has wealth experience including a decade managing sales teams. Fifteen years in corporate entrepreneurship and has more than 9 years speaking at international events. She is a certified master practitioner at NLP speakers training, best selling author and international keynote speaker. As a single mother of two and owner of three businesses, Sandra believes deeply in a power of female empowerment.

She has spoken in over 13 countries and trained over 15,000 students. Sandra brings a wealth of knowledge and passion for her practice. She has this very pure determination, will and super self-motivated because establishing her own business got amazing. To support like minor women, Sandra channels energy into transforming female businesses and supporting their personal enrichment through public speaking.

The Power

(4:52-5:12) And I know what I’m gonna do when I’m full of purpose. And I believe that empowering and serving others really feeds the soul. And I'm fulfilled, I'm full when I'm doing what I love. You know when you’re doing something you don’t like or you’re in a job that you despise, or anything like that, everything becomes a drag.

(5:21-5:28) and that’s a really good sign that you’re not doing what you’re supposed to be doing. That you’re not living into your life purpose.

(5:37) Life is different. You’re excited to do things. You’re excited to take care of your health, and your relationships, and your family and to help others because you’re inline with your purpose. And that’s I guess where the energy and the passion comes from.

(9:17-9:28) and it was until I got up on stage and I had the courage to finally make a public declaration saying, “This is what I wanna do. I wanna be a speaker.”. And it’s amazing, Genecia.

(10:30-10:42) This is what I wanted and it was my chance to make it happen. So the big day came when I got to present in front of Harv and all of his trainers. You know, he was very impressed.

(10:47-10:56) and out of the 67 people they chose one person to start an assistant training for Harv. And that one person was me. It was life changing.

(12:00-12:21) And I wouldn't get out of bed until I got that split second of certainty of, “I got this. I can do this.”. Because for me Genecia, I think visualizing and taking action go hand in hand. You can visualize all day long but if you don't take action it’s not gonna fall out of the sky. And you can take action all day long, which I see soft in these days with entrepreneurs,

(12:27-12:32) they don't take the time to work on their mindset. They don't take their time to become clear, “What is it that I want?”.

(12:35-12:42) “Is my action today getting me closer or farther away from my goal?”, rather than just being busy all day but I don’t know what I’m accomplishing.

(12:49-12:57) Visualize. Be clear on your goals, what you want. That’s when I became clear on what I wanted to do. And then take action. So i thought what’s the fastest way for me to get there.

(13:06-13:25) I didn’t quit my job straight away. So I started to get offers for speaking at events I was doing a lot of Asia back then. And I still have my full time job. And I always say to my women, my clients that I coach, “ You never quit your main source of income until you have replaced it.”.

(13:32-13:49) A new business, a new venture, a new anything takes time to build to get the momentum. So what happens after 3 months, you’re working on the new thing but it’s not giving you that income yet and now you become all stressed because you’re not making “ends-meet” because you left your main source of income.

(13:56-14:00) You never leave your main source of income until you’ve replaced it.

(14:47-15:03) I knew it was a short term sacrifice for a long term reward. Because I thought I can quit now, which many people do when it gets difficult and I can go back to the same and nothing will change, or I can just push through these difficult times knowing the reward will come.

(15:09-15:19) And that’s what I did. I juggle a full time job and speaking for a full year. And then eventually when I was making a lot more money speaking than my job did, then I quit my job.

Investing in Personal Development

(16:12-16:35) These days I see that the number one reason why people don’t become successful is because they keep chasing the shiny bright object. And you know they got, “Oh! That person did really well doing that. I wanna try it too.”. So I was one of those and I’m guilty of that. I tried and then I realized it’s not my personality. It’s not what I love.

(16:44-16:51) And so after, I guess, eliminating everything what’s not then I realize this is my passion. And then all the dots connected.

(17:34-17:42) Do you know what ? Ever since I was a child, whenever I had a little group of friends, a little audience, I loved teaching and speaking in public. So it makes sense.

(17:56-18:06) And that’s when I went, “Do you know what ? I'm not going into trying it anymore to see if it works. I’m going all out.”. And that’s when I eliminated all of the other distractions.

(18:20) It’s so important to make a financial commitment because then you’re putting all of you on the line, a hundred percent committed and that’s what happened for me.

(20:58-21:14) It’s a really good tool to remember what little things you accomplished in the past because that wires the thinking, the neurons in the brain to go, “Actually I am resourceful. I’m determined. When I want something, nothing is gonna get on the way.”

(21:55) As long as I can see that little next step, i’ll just take it. I’ll trust and the words will be revealed.

(22:44-23:10) And I realized, you know what, it doesn't matter what country, what cultural background you were brought up, what language you speak, I realized the common theme across the voice. This woman doesn't believe she’s good enough. And that’s the only reason why she’s being held back and not going all out. And that’s when I went, “That’s it! I’m doing women empowerment. I’ve got to protect these women and show them that they are good enough to do what they think.

(23:27-23:50) And just like a successful man has a successful woman behind, a successful woman has a group of successful women behind holding her back. Because we need each other. We’re here to uplift each other and push each other up the ladder rather than pull them back into the bucket like the crabs do,you know. So that’s when I really discovered this is what I wanna do.

Sandra talks about her Kids

(24:24_24:35) First of all for me, a big lesson was to learn the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. Coz’ a fixed mindset, this thinking you’re good enough so you should be good at everything you should know at all.

(24:45-24:56) This is a big mistake. Kids that believe they’re smart? Guess what. They cannot make mistakes coz’ it just crashes their self-esteem. They’re supposed to know it all. They’re supposed to be good.

(25:01-25:11) Ever since I changed my vocabulary and I always say to my kids, “Oh you’re very resourceful. Oh you’re very creative. Oh, you didn’t give up. You keep trying.”

Overcoming Fears

(30:14-30:21) The first one is, the more vulnerable you are the easier it is to overcome the fear.

(30:52-31:00) So the thing that you feared the most, bring it over straight away. Get over it. So guess what? I turned my weakness into my strength.

(31:23-31:36) So vulnerability, right? The thing that you’re more scared of, share it. If you mess up, if you made a big mistake, share it in public. Because that’s when people connect with you because they know you’re being authentic.

(32:41-32:48) the thing is the sooner you make a decision despite how scared you are, the sooner you’ll find out if it’s good or if it’s right or wrong.

(33:03-33:07) Talk about it. Make it public. Be vulnerable and just train your mind to believe.

(34:57-35:13) To work on yourself more than you work on your business or your job or whatever it is that you do for a living. I always say the mindset is 80% of the equation. 20% is the mechanics, the strategy of it.

(35:22-35:33) but if you don't have that 80% of the equation which is the mindset,you're gonna find a way to sabotage your success. So it’s very important that you put that 80% first, which is working on yourself.

(35:36) A really powerful strategy, Genecia, is journaling. In the mornings or at night, to release all the trapped emotions that we have from childhood and from those teenage years, especially as women, because those trapped emotions that we never released become energy blocks in the subconscious which now stopped you from attracting all the good that you want and that you deserve to have.

(39:27) It all comes from within. Working on yourself. Working on your mindset.

Sandra’s Next Big Project

(43:05) Wow! I’m really excited. I actually put it on sandybravo.com

(43:13) So basically, the creator of this is called Prosperity of Life.

(43:40-43:56) It’s amazing because whenever you think, whenever you say the word direct sales , people think multilevel marketing, which are 2 complete different things. Because multilevel marketing is you offering products which are usually lotions and supplements which I don’t do and I don’t like doing.

(43:59-44:08) Second of all, you sell something and you hardly get paid anything , ‘coz it’s another hundred people on the multi level that need to get paid. So you are working your butt off for nothing.

(44:09-44:32) So this is direct sales in the sense that the first two sells you make, whether they’re retail or business opportunities, you pass him over to your director as a thank you because she took the time to train you into the business. But after that, anything and everything you unroll yourself is for you. So you get to keep 80 to 90% of the profits.

(44:44-44:54) So that means every sale you make you get $19000 profit. $5000 or $2000 or $1900.

(46:02) I’m going all in with that because I think it’s just a complementation to my business and to what i am already doing and you can read more about it on sandybravo.com, I'm very excited about that new venture.

Soul Rich Woman

(46:35-46:52) A soul rich woman for me is a woman that is accomplished. A woman that is doing what she loves. A woman that has the freedom to be herself. There’s nothing worse than living a life of being in jail pretending to be who you’re not, trying to please everyone else.

(47:00-47:08) To get to financial freedom you’ve got to grow yourself to the level, that vibration of energy of financial freedom.

(47:09-47:24) It’s allowing you to become free in terms of your emotions, your relationships and everything else. It’s allowing you to become abundant and wealthy. So a Soul Rich Woman is a woman that leads a life in her own terms.

Favorite F-Word

(47:41-47:43) Freedom! For sure, freedom.

(47:51-47:58) If you have financial independence you have freedom of time and money. You have freedom to go wherever you want with whoever you want.

(48:07-48:12) If you have freedom you are able to spend quality time with your family.

(48:21-48:30) Freedom encompasses everything else, you know. Like I am free because I am Fabulous. Why am I Fabulous? Only because I am myself.

(49:07) If you do nothing to change right now. If you don’t take any actions, think about your life in 5-10 years from now.

(49:19-49:26) How miserable, lonely, broke you’re gonna be. Sitting on that porch, thinking, “Oh my God, I wish I had.”

(49:31-49:40) By then it’s too late. So now is the time. I mean 30 days from now you’ll be so glad you started today. In a year from now, in fact, you’ll be so glad you started today.

FWEP00085 Alex Mandossian How to Build A Business And Brand With Podcasting

We are looking forward to a great interview today because we have a really really special guest. You’re gonna meet this amazing gentleman whom I've met under event at Success Resources where he was such a dynamic host and coach as well.

He is Alex Mandossian. The founder and CEO of marketingonline.com and is best known by his little world of chief makers for teaching third world nations, first world strategies and how to prosper in these marketing strategies. He is also the best-selling author. This guy called Harvey Mackay acknowledges him as the “Warren Buffet” of digital marketing because of his unique ability to make money for his students and his strategic partners. As a virtual trainer he has done over 22,000 hours of training time and nearly 4,800 virtual interviews since 1995. Alex’s lifetime mission is to influence and train over 1,000,000 other chief makers how to transition and profitably by his 77th Birthday. His legacy and public service that teaches chief makers how to ethically influence others through the power of storytelling .

Started online marketing

(4:43-4:46) It was 1995, it was called BG (before google)

(4:51-5:14) Google wasn’t even born when I was still online and back then it was dial up. And Dial-up means that you would call on a phone and it would be a busy signal. It was called “America Online” back then. There was no Google or Facebook, or Twitter or any of the Social Media that we have today. In fact, those weren't even ideas in how fast we’ve changed in over 25 years.

(5:15-5:32) I come from the television and marketing business. Infomercials, which are 30 minute commercials. And television commercials of 1 minute and 2 minute TV commercials. Mostly in the United States but also overseas.

(5:48-6:06) In 1995 I was somehow on a website, I didn’t have my own website back then and I realized, Wow! I’ve been on this website for about half an hour. It cost the website owner nothing. And I can interact with it. It was much different than it was today. E-mail was much different than it is today.

(6:26-6:42) We could do it online directly and quickly. So I took all my television marketing skills to infomercial marketing, to ultimately into the internet marketing and I became one of the godfathers of the digital world.

(6:51-7:12) I have over 50% more women than men and I believe it’s because of storytelling. I was the first to come to Asia as an American in 2002 to teach Digital Marketing and I continue to keep coming back. I was there during lockdown and I ended up being locked down in Australia.

(7:21-7:40) I’ve been a Success Resources for 16 years and I’m very close friends with Richard and Veronica Tan. They've done much for the world but we went from being locked down for 1200 days. No more for now to virtual events and you (Genecia) were one of the shining stars in that approach.

(8:33-8:59) I was born as a Christian, and I grew up at a Christian church, except I’ve been more Buddhist in my way of being over the years. And I’ve been a big fan of the Eastern Tradition. And Lao Tzu said, “When the true leader’s job is done, all the people say we did it ourselves.”. In the United States we don’t study Chinese culture or Chinese history, but I did.

(9:07-9:49) What I noticed was that the Teacher and the Elderly are two groups of people. The teachers and the elderly, they are revered. They are considered to be wise and they are always observed to be important people. In the United States, the elderly, we put in All Folks Homes and Senior Living. And teachers we don’t honor the way they do in Asia. And so what i believe is that, “The greatest teacher is the one who turns his/her students into his/her teachers.”

(10:11-11:03) My greatest accomplishment is having very smart and irritating students who are smarter than I am and end up becoming more successful and becoming my teachers. They call it Shifu in the Chinese tradition, Sensei in the Japanese tradition, Maestro in the Italian tradition, they would call it a Lama in the Tibetan tradition, and Guru in the Indian Tradition, Mentor in the Greek tradition. It’s very very boring in the American they call it the “Coach”. In France they call it Tutor, in England they call it Guide. Whatever you call it, it’s someone who plowed the ground before you. It’s someone who has wisdom and the goal is for you to find one.

(11:06-11:12) Find a mentor because it will accelerate your path to greatness.

STORYTELLING

(11:56-12:13) If they told you stories it was very comforting. A story has beginning, a middle and an end. A story has a moral to it. So I’ll give a very quick story that I tell on stage when I want someone to buy from me. And it’s the story about becoming decisive and why it’s important to be decisive.

(13:00-13:15) With storytelling, it’s a hero's journey we’re telling. Whether it’s the movie from the Hobbits Series or Harry Potter’s Series or Star Wars, there’s a story that ensnares the attention. Captures the attention.

(13:16-13:50) Alex tells the story “The Donkey”.

(13:51-14:07) So i tell people, don’t be that ass. Which is in the bible, by the way, they don’t call it the donkey. I say, “Be decisive”. It’s either Yes or No. There is no “maybe”. And I will tell you there’s 4 ways to play the game of life. You can refuse to play.

(14:12-14:25)You can pretend to play if you’re multitasking, I know that that’s a feminine approach to being great. No, multitasking is horrible. Monotasking works because when you multitask you make mistakes. Men, women, whatever.

(14:26-14:27) You can play not to lose.

(14:33-14:52) You cannot win a game of any kind. The game of life or the game in business if you’re playing defense 100% of the time. So refusing to play, pretending to play, playing not to lose those are not the ways to play. Playing to win, that’s the way to play.

(14:59-15:08) Whatever game you’re playing there’s only two outcomes you can have if you’re playing to win. Number 1, you win. Number 2, you learn.

(15:19-15:37) So those are two quick stories, analogies, and that’s storytelling. It’s story selling when you’re on stage or at a virtual event like this one. But as you tell stories they don’t doubt you, you’re not making a claim. You’re entertaining and you’re enrolling them at the same time.

PODCASTING

(16:10-16:18) I wrote the business podcasting bible, and that was in 2005, and that was before they called it a podcast. I wrote it with a partner of mine, Paul Colligan.

(16:21-16:26) 80% of that book is no longer valid because podcasting has changed.

(16:42-17:04) I was the first to bring video online before YouTube, called Instant Video Generator. I brought audio online called Audio Generator. And the first time anyone had an opt-in page, we were the first to do that with a marketing makeover generator. We made 1.2 million US dollars in 28 minutes selling that. Now that was the first generation to many of the great platforms.

(17:14-17:28) By the way, i love pink. Pink is the color of wealth. I don’t know if you realize that, but when a man wears a pink tie that requires wealth. It is not feminine or masculine, it is a wealth color.

(17:53-18:13) So a podcast is what’s called a time-shifted content. Time shift means it's pre-recorded. So time shifting means you’re taking time, it’s not live like a webinar, and you're listening to it at a certain time. And when you subscribe, you’re not subscribing with the podcaster, you’re subscribing with the platform.

(18:19-18:27) The reason I developed my podcast is I wanted a legacy. I didn’t want to write a bunch of books. I wanted to use the spoken word.

(18:42-18:46) When you’re listening you can do what’s called, not multitasking, but background tasking.

(19:13-19:22) Podcasting is what’s called time-shifted content. And you have thousands of episodes. It is your legacy. It’s topic based.

(19:26-19:37) I chose content based and I do it once a week and I've taken all of my knowledge about 25 years of sales and marketing knowledge, put it into 25 minutes week after week.

(19:43-19:48) and it’s seeding through storytelling and that’s the news selling.

(20:15-20:27) The selling is not necessary, you don't have to be us, But storytelling is very very important because storytelling captivates the listener and the viewer.

(20:40-20:49) The audio piece, you can do it while you’re doing something else, that’s called background tasking. Not multitasking but background tasking.

(25:21-25:39) I’m developing virtual events with success resources and other event marketing companies like that. But they’re listening to it, i’ve recorded it, they’ve gotten a piece of my heart. After I give the content, I tell them what they’re about to learn. I usually have three things and my format is what, why and how.

(25:55-25:59) So what, why, how is about the head, the heart and the hands.

(40:05-40:30) I’m gonna give you feedback that I hope every man and woman, mostly woman, will take to heart and that is high intention and low attachment.It’s attachment that ruins a relationship. It’s attachment that lowers your self-esteem. It’s attachment that gets you broke and your attempting a marketing campaign that keeps failing but you’re so attached to it.

(40:40-41:12) So detach. High intention, low attachment.What that means you have a high intention,”This is what I want to do”. And then you detach from it and the results are none of your business. If the strategy doesn’t work, you change the strategy. You have a thought, you have a feeling, you take action and then you have a result. But the result doesn’t work out, you change the action. You don’t change the thought or the feeling. You don’t change your intention or your purpose. You change the strategy.

Difference between Podcasting and Virtual Events

(44:09-44:30) In doing a podcast, it’s much easier to learn from someone because it’s time shifted. A physical event like a webinar, you have to show up on time and sometimes they don’t have a replay. But with a podcast everything is a replay. It’s released on a certain day, if you do it properly.

(44:47-45:04) Just like that, you know it’s gonna come. You are there as a friend, as a trusted adviser where you’re listening or watching someone teach you something because you’ve chosen a specific topic that’s meaningful to you. So i love podcasting for that reason.

Soul Method vs. Interview Method

(45:44-46:07) The reason I did is because I'm better in -- I’m in the business many many years and with an interview. And I hope this interview is very acceptable to you. But many times the interviewee has their own agenda and they go a lot longer than you expected them to go or they go in a different direction then you wanted them to go, and so I didn’t want to deal with that.

(46:29-46:45) When you interview someone, you don’t have as much control over it. So I want to do 200 Episodes before I had interview and then I would do a second podcast every week with an interview on all selling sites. So I want to do..

(46:48-47:13) 200 content based ones, and by the time I establish that and get a following then I would go to interview . And even if they didn’t go in the direction I wanted to go, coz’ sometimes it goes too long or maybe not enough or maybe it’s not the content worthy of devotion then I’m not going to disappoint someone because I have a family member. You're gonna ask me possibly what my favorite F is. It's gonna be Family and I'll return to that when you ask me.

How do you discover a virtual events format that is suitable or successful?

(49:19-49:26) The secret to my success is I’m more willing to look bad in the public than you are.

(49:29-49:33) If I wanna double my success rate, I have to double my failure rate.

(49:46-49:52) In entrepreneurship, the more you fail the more you will hail success into the future.

(50:00-50:19) I take a lot of risks. I fail often. But I always fail forward, and so how do I find these templates by failing a lot? And you don’t see the failures. You don’t see the roots that are rotten underneath the soil. You just see the trunk, the branches, the leaves and the fruit, right? And They’re beautiful fruits.

(50:23-50:43) The reason I’m so excited in teaching you is because I failed 80% of the time to give the 20% that worked. And so I’m very excited to give you the fruit of my roots that didn’t turn into the tree that I wanted to. So It’s by failing often, that’s the secret to my success

Who do you select to work with?

(50:55-51:03) I look at the results they’ve gotten. So you know, I look at their character. I look at the type of person they are. Are they family-person?

(51:04-51:08) Many people are very good at what they do but they may not be good in other areas.

(51:18:51:23) I care about his entrepreneurship and you can say that about a lot of people.

(51:49-52:02) I look at their accomplishments. So what I look at is the results they’ve got. And if they’ve gotten the results that I want then I will want to follow them or atleast hire them or follow them as one of my mentors.

Greatest Success and Biggest Failure

(53:10) Well my biggest failure is I lost $242,000. Most of that was not my money. It came from my grandparents who were deceased.

(53:42-54:00) I was depressed and I was partially suicidal. I mean I went to take my life because I was so humiliated, embarrassed and ashamed. And those are worthless emotions but when you’re in it was very difficult, ladies, to get out of it. And if you’ve been there you’ll know exactly what I’m saying.

(55:36-55:44) So in order for this transformation to happen, I’m not thinking of it at that time. I’m thinking about taking my life because I'm so depressed. It’s my first business.

(56:06-56:13) Once you get your first opt in, other people follow. You get testimonials, endorsements, everyone comes in. You get case studies. It starts building.

(56:32-56:41) All the effort and discipline is in the beginning. It uses up all the fuel. That’s why most people don’t succeed. They’re not willing to dig deep and go for it.

(58:01-58:07) And I realized it’s not the result that we have to model. We have to model the evolution with the mentor.

(58:52-59:01) If you sell too hard they will fly away. If you don’t sell hard enough they'll walk towards you but you won’t get the beak to hand relationship.

(59:19-59:22) Women are natural gatherers. I have a bias.

(59:25-59:37) I have men upset with me ‘coz I don’t hire them. I prefer women in the sales position because I can teach them how to sell better. They listen. They’re community builders. And they believe in the F-word.

(59:43-59:49) And here’s the one thing I learned. If you win the heart, the head will follow.

(59:54-59:57) If you win the ears, the eyes will follow.

(1:00:04-1:00:27) Win their time. Capture their attention and sustain it so they’re listening to you, their money will follow. Don’t go after their money right away, go after their time. Don’t go after their eyes, go after their ears, like in a podcast. Don’t go after their head and tell them how this is gonna change their life. Go after their heart and say how it changes their identity. Everything changes. That’s what i’ve learned.

(1:01:11-1:01:25) I believe that when you look at the three M’s in business which is the Market- that’s who you’re selling to, the Message- that’s what you’re selling, and the Media- that’s how you’re selling.

(1:01:30-1:01:48) Well I believe the market needs to be replaced with something more fluid, more active. Market is a noun, i like a verb- Movement. A movement is a market. A group of people who are moving. Movement is life. Nothing happens until something moves, said Albert Einstein.

(1:02:50-1:02:53) As far as community building, I found that it comes more natural to women.

(1:03:13-1:03:27) Without those obstacles, without crawling through the tunnel of sewage, then you’re not gonna have meaning in your life. If you have two roads that you’re gonna take and you have to make a desisyon. Take the one that has more meaning for you.

(1:03:31-1:03:42) In looking at “Market vs. Movement”, pick movement first and forget about the market. Forget about who you’re selling to. Create something that creates a movement for you.

(1:04:38-1:04:44) Money doesn’t buy happiness, ok? But it makes misery a lot easier to put up with.

(1:06:57-1:07:07) You know when you talk about the soul. You know the soul is 17 grams, they say. And when someone dies the body loses 17 grams of weight.

(1:09:10-1:09:13) I would tell you if you have money issues, get over it.

Who is a Soul Rich Woman to you?

(1:10:27-1:10:47) My favorite woman of all time is Amelia Earheart. And she was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean. She died into her passion of flying in the Pacific Ocean somewhere. And you know many people believed that she learned from a lot of men around her but she took a lot of chances.

(1:10:58-1:11:07) Her mentor was Anita Snook. And even if people don’t know who Anita Snook is, it’s the mentor that really should get the credit.

(1:11:12-1:11:24) When you look up Amelia Earheart’s life and you noticed, “If i’m gonna die, I wanna die living into my passion.” And that’s the way she died when her plane went into the Pacific Ocean somewhere.

Which one is your Favorite F-word and Why?

(1:11:49-1:12:06) Family! And I'll tell you why. Because Freedom, you can be connected from it but you can be disconnected from it. And the other F’s, you can be connected and disconnected. But with family, you can only be connected. It’s there for a reason. It’s yours.

(1:12:18-1:12:43) So i believe family members are there to teach us. And if you look at your lineage and your heritage and you look from where you came from, that’s my “why”. Because I know I'm not here by accident, I’m here by divine purpose for some reason and some mission. If you find your mission as I thought I have, and mine is to teach and train a million other trainers to do the same as I'm doing right now.

(1:12:59) I have a mission that I found. Finding your mission is the key. And that’s why family for me is the most important because when things go wrong I always go back to family because I can count on them having my back. That’s the most important “F” for me.

Podcast and Seeding

(1:13:42-1:14:11) Podcast is a vehicle and a media, and Seeding is a technique. So the principle behind all of that, I believe is what I read before I go onstage, before I do my podcast, before I do my virtual Event like a webinar. I read this every single time. And it’s a quote from the Greek philosopher, Socrates. Now Socrates was the mentor to Plato. Plato was the mentor to Aristotle. Aristotle was the mentor to Alexander the Great.

(1:14:22-1:14:33) Socrates has a quote that many people don’t know. And it says, ”The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to become the person you pretend to be”.

(1:14:49-1:15:05) Be the person you pretend to be. Don’t wear the mask. If you wear the mask, the longer the mask is worn, the more your face grows to finite and you’ll lose your character. Your personality is not important to me, if I'm your friend, it’s your character. I wanna know what’s in your heart.

Key Takeaways:

A man or a woman who hates to sell can still sell.
Listening is a very powerful way to learn.
The more you fail the more you’ll succeed.
Take a lot of risks.
If you win their time, their money will follow.

Be a woman in power with Elena Cardone Grant CardoneEmpire AUTHOR | PUBLIC SPEAKER

In this episode, we’ll be empowered through the words of wisdom of our special guest. She is the Queen of her Empire, she has designed, constructed and protected a life outside of the ordinary. She has inspired a legion of followers to create their own empires – lives that are truly fulfilling and beyond the average. She counts her current job as her most important one – Chief Family Officer, where she is a loving mother, fierce wife and loyal friend.

Overcoming roadblocks

Elena’s life is quite challenging because she experienced a lot of struggles at a young age. She witnessed a fire across their house and killed two people despite their efforts to put out the fire.

(4:47)“At 14 years old not having anything so traumatic occur in my life I just wasn’t skilled enough at my age to deal with something like that and my father had fought in World War II and he was a military person and we’re just a very conservative family. So it wasn’t like there was any time to really to cope it was life must go on.”

Despite all this roadblock she pushed her way to move and step forward which led her to become the independent woman that she is now.

Passion and desire

(5:55) “So at 17 I decided I’ve got to get out of here I’m going to Los Angeles I’m gonna be something I’m gonna become an actress.”

Indeed, because of her passion and desire, she got her 2 and half month contract in Tokyo as a model and actress and became somewhat successful. She did modelling, acting and commercials as well.

Independent woman

(6:21)“When I met Grant the first five years of our marriage I was still doing this woman independent thing like we were married and I thought marriage is monogamy. I thought it was only about that. I didn’t realize that if I’ll partner up with someone it strengthens the numbers.”

(7:23) “When economic collapse occurred that’s when I decided to trade in my acting career which I was terrified to do because it was what I depended on for my survival since I moved to Los Angeles by myself at 17.”

Getting used to being independent as a teenager it was a challenge for Elena to see how a husband can contribute to her success as a woman.

“We had a power struggle because I am super independent and I don’t want anyone to control me”

Financial Freedom

(8:29) “ We wanted to take that power into our own hands, so I have this idea about this empire, okay if he is the king and I am the queen and this is our empire what do I want it to look like? Who do I want to surround ourselves with? Do we hang out with the people with drugs and alcohol?”

So, Elena and her husband cleaned up their lives because it’s part of being a positive influence. They focused on building their empire, foregoing all luxuries they enjoyed before to pool all their resources towards their business until they become successful and gained financial freedom.
(9:18) “Now that we have created so much success in our lives financially we do have financial freedom, not just financial independence.”

Tips on How to work with a partner(9:46)“A few little adjustments to get you both operating on the same page so that you can really utilize each other’s horsepower to push yourself instead of without even realizing it working against each other or you might go like this or you must like go straight down. But if you actually know how to work together and know each other’s roles, strengths and weaknesses and how you can build together, like push yourself on. Just eliminate the few incorrect pieces of datum because as they say “knowledge is power”.

(10:22)“If you get rid of bad key elements and then tweak and get on the same page it so much easier than you think. There’s still gonna be work, there’s still gonna be sacrifice, it’s still gonna take time but you will be able to exponentially up the rocket faster”

Solving Problem

(11:02)“Stop thinking so much unless it’s a broad picture of possibility.”
Start looking for the possibilities, start looking for the opportunities sometimes your biggest problem can be your biggest solution. If you are having that problem you figure out how to solve it, chances are if you solve that for other people you can scale that business out.

(11:45)“If you need to have help, if you need to, hire somebody while you figure this out don’t feel like you are a superhero and do everything yourself at some point maybe ask your friend to help you until you can afford to pay someone to help you but you just have to go out and do something. Take action, stop thinking and do and you can do even if your knees are trembling, even if you think it’s not going to work and you feel ridiculous.”

Equipping women’s confidenceWomen's are powerful. As Elena stated:

26:27 I wanna equip women with confidence.

(26:36) I want women to mind their own goals who are they, not only a brand but as their contribution and not withhold that from the world like if we all lived up to our potential or try to fight for the greatness how could that impact the world. We could make a big difference wouldn’t just be a fairytale idea in my head like there would be real transformation. If people actually deliver their gifts and I want women to expose that and give it to the world and stop withholding and stop thinking they're not good enough. And stop thinking they have nothing to contribute. It’s so selfish women are so powerful, and so dynamic and there so aesthetic just imaging if the world operated that aesthetic wavelength you know how different just that could be.

Key Takeaways:

Sharing control does not diminish your worth.
Sacrifices are important to pursue life’s priorities.
If you have to, ask for help until you can stand back on your own feet.
A mindset shift is important to achieve success.
It’s never too late to learn something new.

Have been crowned as Miss Singapore and Miss Singapore International, many are quick to think Genecia was born with a silver spoon. However, behind this beautiful face there is a hardworking and self-sacrificing woman in power. This young lady had it all, but easy. As a teenager she was forced to put herself through her education by teaching an array of wellness classes such as: yoga, aerobics and line dancing.

These years of hardship molded her and lead her to become the founder of Soul Rich Woman, where she educates and elevates women to realize their highest power.

FWEP0001 Not Everything Is As It Seems - Women in Power Singapore with Genecia Alluora

In this episode, let me encourage you as a former Miss Singapore and Southeast Asia Woman of Excellence in 2010; and founder of Soul Rich Woman, the number one female entrepreneur network in Southeast Asia that connects more than 12,000 women across the region, with presence in 7 countries, including Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia.

Self-SupportingAt an early age of 14 I have learned to face challenges and took on responsibilities due to life’s circumstances.(3:33)“A lot of people thought that when I was Ms. Singapore they think that I was born with a silver spoon. But it did not start that way I had to support myself through school since I was 14 years old, teaching Yoga, aerobics and line dancing through my school years so I put myself through college I put myself through university so it was really tough.”

Financial CrisisDue to a financial crisis, I had to step up and think of ways to support myself and my family. I had to do sacrifices to make it through in life.

(4:06)“At that time my dad lost everything due to the financial crisis.
(4:20) Because of that I had to come up and do my own stuff and I think that has really molded me through my years and then after that I became an occupational therapist.
(4:53) Back then I was the youngest instructor in Singapore and then I went on to do classes but it was not easy because when I’m seeing other girls doing things in their free time they are going to the movie, going for shopping and then I’m working after school.”

Empowering WomenWhat I experienced during my teenage years gave me a better perspective on influence and how it can be used to empower others.

(5:47) “I’ve come along way with my experiences, now it’s time to share and shortcut other woman's journey and empower others because empowered women empower others.
(6:45) After that I took on these skills, I went on to coach and mentor many women to transform their confidence from being ugly duckling to be more confident and become the better version of themselves.”

The motivation to changeAs I moved up the ladder and gained success, I realized I needed more freedom and not be bound by time and money.

(6:56)“Because I went through that transformation myself too. That movement actually gave me the confidence to do more in my life. In 2012-2013 I told myself I’m no longer going to trade time for money because as an image consultant you work you get paid when you stop working you don’t get paid. So I said I want to move this online.”

Process of growthYou need to expand and broaden your horizons to progress in life. You need to invest in yourself too.

(7:21) “So I went through a process seeking mentors, looking for coaches to coach me on the process spent hundreds and thousands of dollars looking for resources to grow my knowledge.
(7:38)I worked my way up then I took my vision of helping more women to be more confident and then I started a platform called “You are possible academy” because I launched my own book in 2013, it’s about personal branding then after that I went online.”

A heart for women

Despite the success that I attained there was still something missing, I felt like I wasn’t where I was supposed to be.

(8:25) “During this whole period my heart has always been with the women even though I was doing the retail business. It was tough, because there was a calling at the back of my head like “Genecia you gotta do this” you can’t just give up the women and just do a coffee retail chain. Move up and do more.”

Stepping stone

(11:15) “You know back then, I was bullied I was really bullied by mean girls in school. You know I was poor, I really didn’t have any money to change my bag or even to change my clothes besides my school clothes.”
I faced the roadblocks in my life. From adjusting to our family’s financial situation to being bullied at school and doing jobs while studying. These situations could have hindered me, but instead of viewing them as stumbling blocks I used them as stepping stones to reaching my dreams.

Key Takeaways:

Success is not determined by financial status.
Life’s changes should not stop you from pursuing your dreams.
Keep learning, keep growing.
Do not give up on what you are most passionate about.
Roadblocks are stepping stones.

TRANSCRIPT

INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT

Well Genecia, thank you so much for taking some time to join me today. I appreciate it.

Thank you for having me on your show, David.

Today I want to talk to you about one of your favorite words, it’s the F-word. Now you talk about owning the F-word and breaking the code of the F-word. What F-word are we talking about here today?

Well, we are talking about being fabulous, having freedom, and financial independence. Above all, family.

Okay, obviously it’s a fun way to talk about these things that are really important to you, at what point did you recognize in your own life that these were really important? Being fabulous, having freedom, financial independence, family, how did these things come about for you?

I started at a very early age. I started working when I was fourteen years old. My family, financially, we were not sound. My mom pawned gold to send me for instructive courses. I became certified in aerobics, yoga, and country line dancing certification. I was teaching that. I learned about the value of family when I was constantly bullied in school. I wasn’t able to buy new clothes, wasn’t able to buy new bags, and shoes. Constantly my things were hand-me-down. Whereas my friends and schoolmates were like, buy new stuff, the latest.

They all bullied me in school. There was one incident, they threw my bag across the classroom floor and all my books were strewn all across the floor. I felt very humiliated. Then there was another time when I was cornered in the yard, we were having basketball practice and they pulled open my P.E. t-shirt and exposing my bra strap and my bra, really hard. The girl actually mocked me and said, “Oh. You’re wearing the same bra?” Literally, I just felt I wanted to die. I just wanted to commit suicide and things like that.

When I went back home, I almost wanted to do that. My mom was awesome. She counseled me. She guided me. She showed me that the ‘why’ is bigger than the ‘how’. She taught me that if I value family, death will not solve the problem, right? Why do you bother what the cynics or the skeptics say about you? But really focusing on what’s in front of you. From then on, I learned that my mom, my family, my brother, my dad, were a bit wise of the things that I do.

Even now, that I’m running Soul Rich Woman, the premier entrepreneur network here in South East Asia. My ‘why’ is also my mom, because I see her as a leader in a community, inspiring and helping other women. I’m like, “Well okay, I want to do something like a legacy business.” This is why I’ve done Soul Rich Woman since 2015. That’s five years already. It’s going on strong and we want to do more to build the financial independence, which I had at a very young age. I wanted to have freedoms, so that I could spend time with my family, travel with my family.

Last but not least, being fabulous means you’re really confident about what you do, your soul, your purpose. Because to influence other people, you have to be aligned, right? That’s why it’s called Soul Rich Woman. The inner part of you and the outer parts of you, when it’s aligned, the money will come. Money is just a by-product of whatever that we are doing.

You have had just an incredible journey through life. You talked about at a young age needing to begin working. My mind gets blown when you talk about that you made money teaching line dancing. When was the last time you went country line dancing?

Just last year I was there. In fact, it was fun. These days, nobody really dresses up as cowboys any more. There’s more relaxed dressing like jeans and t-shirt, and stuff like that. Yeah, last year. I went back to have fun.

That’s very fun. Very cool. Not only did you do that, but then you obviously became Miss Singapore in 2006. How did you get into beauty pageants? Was that the first pageant that you enrolled in or were there others before that? Take me back.

I joined a modeling competition in 2004. Think of it as the Next Top Model. That was like the biggest thing in Singapore. I joined that first. I got into the top twenty out of one thousand candidates.

Wow.

I’ve never thought of becoming that because I was constantly bullied in school. My self-esteem definitely took a dump. Eventually I got some really good friends who encouraged me to join a beauty pageant and said, “You could just give it a go. Why not have some fun?” I said, “Okay, but I’m not rich.” I don’t have that much money to buy the clothes, get the dresses, and things like that. It was hard. Eventually I joined, and I was not trained. I don’t have money to attend a lot of courses. What I did was, I knocked on doors. I literally went around to knock on doors to look for someone to teach me in public speaking. I was literally knocking on every door and asking for sponsorship. “I could be the future Miss Singapore. I’m not there yet, but hey, maybe invest in me.”

Yeah, sure. Of course.

Eventually I met this lady, her name is Rebecca. I remember her very fondly. She’s really, very –how do I say this? Like a mom figure as well, but in the sense she’s very open, very gentle. She said, “Okay, I will sponsor you. So here are all my DVD’s, my notes, and everything you need to do public speaking. How to use your vocals and reach out and express yourself.” I said, “Okay, fine.” Then later on, she asked me for my bag. So I said, “Okay, I’ll pass you my bag.” Rebecca took my bag, and opened up the bag, and took out my wallet, and opened up my wallet, and poured out every single cent I have in my wallet. My sixty dollars, which is an entire months’ worth of pocket money that I have for my food.

I’m like, “Rebecca, why are you taking my money from my wallet?” She said, “You know what Genecia? Although I’m sponsoring you, it’s never free. I must show you what do I mean by value. Even though you are not rich to pay me, which is thousands and thousands of dollars that’s on the table right now. All the DVD’s, the CD’s, and everything else that you have and you see. I will take something in exchange so you can learn the importance of value.”

At that moment I was struck. Because, “What? You mean take away all my pocket money? And you said value.” I couldn’t understand that at that point but I still accepted it because she was willing to help me, right? Now that I look back, I definitely learned the understanding of value and I applied it in my life constantly. Later on, I went on to join Miss Universe Singapore. I won third place. Then I continued to join one more pageant which was Miss Singapore International, and I won. I represented Singapore twice and the rest is history.

As you began to walk through that process of pageants, what were some of the things that you learned? You talked about public speaking. That’s a big one. What are some of the other things that that pageant process taught you?

The pageant process taught me how to do teamwork in the shortest time possible. There was nineteen delegates, and you are put together to work together as a group, right? Within two to three weeks, and you need to do the finals. That taught me cultural differences and learn how to live with each other in that sense. Thank God my roommate was Miss Japan. So culturally we’re not that different, but language, definitely there were differences. Secondly, I learned how to present my brand. How do you present a platform? Learn how to consistently make your message consistent.

That one was also something that I picked up during the pageant. Because to shine on the international platform, you really need to know how to present yourself well. Whether it’s image, whether it’s grooming department, to the Ambassadors of the country or the high-level ranking officials, you need to know how to present yourself well. I think that’s the second one.

Of course, last but not least is learning how to put everything together. Knowing at different places you can’ t be everything to everybody but you know how to be that person who you are no matter what happens right in front of you. Be authentic. Learning to grapple with authenticity and being who you are, instead of trying to be somebody. Because there’s always somebody that you always look up to, and you think that you try to be that person. But in the pageant, for me, I learned the power of authenticity. When you’re truly you on stage and off stage, that’s when the magic is going to happen.

That’s interesting you say that, because often times if I see a pageant, and I’m definitely no expert on pageants, I click through and see something on TV. Authentic isn’t the word that would necessarily come to my mind. I would think that there’s almost like an outer, it’s a show. You know what I mean? You’re putting on your best. You’re putting your best foot forward, obviously. But you’re saying there needs to be this match of what’s going on inward with what you’re projecting outward. Why does that need to match? Why can’t you just put on an outer shell or a show? Why wouldn’t that work for you?

I think that goes in two perspectives. One is, when you put on a show on stage, like if you’re modeling and you are just putting on the show, to walk the show that the designer wants, the look and feel. That’s a separate story all together. The context that I’m putting it in for authenticity simply means that the energy, the essence that you’re putting out there. That when you are speaking on stage the message you’re sharing, the platform you’re standing on, how then do you communicate your personality there?

Then when you get offstage, do you completely become a different person? For me, I’m a trained extrovert. I’m basically an introvert. I need to know, how do I unleash the extrovert part of me on stage so that I’m able to communicate with my audience on the stage? It’s all about knowing how to be grounded as a person with a good head on your shoulders. No matter what circumstances or which state you are at, you will definitely shine through. That’s what I meant.

Once you won Miss Singapore, twice, you had some opportunities that opened up for you, I would assume. Opportunities to meet different people and take your life to new places. What are some of the greatest opportunities that you got out of that whole experience?

Definitely made a lot of good friends. So many years moving forward, a decade, I still am very good friends with Miss Hong Kong, Miss Japan, Aruba, and basically all the girlfriends around the world are still there. They’ve married and then they’ve moved on as well. I think three are super amazing. For me also other things like being able explore myself as a person, deeper level where it’s beyond just fame and material. But really seeing, how do I want to change my life?

Another very awesome experience was, I was really exposed to the power of inner healing. One of the sponsors sponsored me to go for an inner healing transformation course and that really changed my life. That really helped me saw all the old junk that we have that is holding us back. After I had gone through that for the years moving forward, I have been constantly and consistently working on myself. Through inner healing and transformation, only then then you can transform your life.

I feel that’s the best gift. Of the travel and everything is good, but I feel the biggest gift for me, when I look back now at the age that I am and the space where I’m at with Soul Rich Woman, I’m just like, “Mmm, it’s the inner healing part.” Because if not for that journey, I would not have the depth and breadth to understand and help more women. To help them to bounce back and help them to translate all this negativity into positivity.

The inner healing and that personal development, is that popular in South East Asia? Or would you say that that’s unique?

Back in 2006, it was unique. Only Tony Robbins, you see T. Harv Eker, big names like that from the U.S. You don’t really see a lot of Asian or South East Asian really working on those things. It definitely has changed over the years. I was exposed to Money and You, and also Psychology of Vision, and these two programs actually opened up my mind and heart. Now South East Asia is very popular and open to all these spiritual awareness, higher consciousness, and looking at how you can heal to be happier and more money.

Because sometimes money is equal to your inner consciousness as well, right? It’s never just about having more customers and just having a business. It’s about the balance of that spiritual self. I think this is the time where there’s a lot of spiritual awakenings. I will say this entire season a lot of them are growing and seeking above and beyond of just making money and business.

It seems like the more prosperous a culture is, the more there is, I would even say, time to be able to think about those types of issues. I know I’ve got a few friends that are in Pakistan and I have a lot of friends in India, and often times they’re so busy trying to just make a living. From even just manual labor type, whether it’s farming, or agriculture, or other service-based industries, they don’t even have time to think about things that you and I think about or talk about. It definitely is, I would say, a privileged position we are in to be able to even process at that level, you know?

Yeah, that’s right.

I know that you’ve operated multiple businesses, but there was a shift around 2012 where you went from offline, kind of brick and mortar businesses to online businesses. Talk to me about why you began to develop online businesses.

I was an image consultant after I finished Miss Singapore. I took on the image consultancy certification, a natural progression for me. Plus I had been training all my life, becoming a trainer and instructor since I was fourteen, so it was a natural progression for me to teach and help other people to look good and be fabulous. It was quite interesting because I started very early. I believe it was because I started very young. So when I was looking at my life I’m like, “I’m not going to be like my mentors, who’re still teaching at that age.”

I mean nothing wrong about teaching at that age, but I would want to not be grounded and tied down by the number of classes I have or the number of participants I have in a workshop. I do not want to be tied and pulled back by that. I want to be able to travel the world, be anywhere at any time, and still be able to run stuff. I decided to stop trading time for money. If I work, I get paid. I work, I get paid. I don’t work, I don’t get paid. I said, “No. I don’t think I want to go through that.”

In my early twenties I decided to work on going online. I invested in quite a number of courses. I spent quite a lot of money doing that. About I will say at least about fifty to hundred K on courses to find out what is online. Eventually I found a mentor who showed me the way. In 2013 I went completely online. In three months I made a hundred thousand. In a year I made one million dollars.

What was that first online business?

I was doing like selling skin care. I had different businesses. I had multiple ones. I was selling skin care. I was selling gifts. Yeah, stuff like that.

E-Commerce.

E-Commerce. I was doing E-Commerce. Back then, it was a boom. It was a boom town back then and competition was still okay. You just had to know how to manage it. I think it was really awesome to do that. Then I progressed by sharing my knowledge online. Switching on the webinar, the webcam, and then using webinar software. I was there like “bam”. Every single Wednesday I was sharing my skills and my results with people over the internet. I made my money and I was invited to invest in the cafe retail business. So it kind of progressed from offline to online, and then went offline again while the online was still running.

I started my cafe business with my partners. We have seven outlets in three countries. We had eighteen franchises and licensees in total. It was very amazing, because I was a medical student and never had business experience. So doing all these operational, retail, and marketing PR for a retail chain was out of my mind and out of my zone, but we still did it. After four years we exited this business to a public listed company. It was good. So offline to online, and then online to offline. Then during that time when I was doing my cafe business, I just felt that my soul is empty.

Even though I was good in business, I had the money, I had the fame, I had everything that I had. I just felt, I think God’s calling me but I think I’m not responding yet. That kind of thing. At that moment I knew that I need to do something else, which was why I was online sharing on the webinar. At every Wednesday at 9 PM it was called Webinar Wednesdays, so there was this like jingle to it. It grew.

This group of women started to talk to me and they followed me. My community kind of formed and that’s how Soul Rich Woman was being born while I was moonlighting for my cafe business. I was moonlighting, right? My cafe business was the full-time, and then this community thing was a part-time, side hustle. It grew, it grew. I think it was very timely when we exited to the public listed company. It was really awesome. I just cashed out and I just invest and started Soul Rich Woman.

I love that. How would describe Soul Rich Woman? If we were sitting next to each other on a plane and I said, “Soul Rich Woman, what is this? What do you do?”

I would usually say the F-word. Helping women to own and live the F-word. Being fabulous, having freedom, and financial independence, and above all, family. Sometimes I find it very difficult to explain exactly what we do. Because like for women we have so many different aspects of us. We are the healer. We are the giver. We are the creator. We are the initiator. So many parts of us. Of course in a nutshell, we help women to go from offline to online. That’s very technical, right? Helping women to get more clients online, get more recognition, being seen, being heard.

That’s part of the description technically you want to explain to somebody. But the work that we do is beyond that. I can tell you there’s a lot of emotional stuff going on. You have to help women to see and get beyond that. Imagine this, on a racetrack, a guy and a girl. You put them on a racetrack, they’re supposed to run the race. In front of the guy is just a briefcase, a table, their work, their paperwork, and maybe their boss. In front of the lady or the girl will be the kid’s homework, the school, the laundry, the washing machine, the housework, and everything else in front of the lady or the girl. That is difficult, right?

A lot of times before we could get to so-called getting our self from offline to online and seeing that thing, that fabulous, that freedom of financial independence. We have to help them to see self-care. To see that they need to put themselves first. I mean, of course we need to put our family first, right? We love our family so much. But to the point where they no longer exist in the world. Like me and self-care no longer exist in the dictionary. So we have this lady who is a ten-year stay-at-home-mom. She was the chief financial and family officer at home, but she’s done nothing for herself in the last ten years. Nothing.

All she does is household chores, cooking, and taking care of the kids. She’s got three kids. She raised the kids and that’s it. That’s what she do. Take care of the husband, right? Serve the husband and that’s all what she do. One day she decided that she wants to be more fabulous. By having that first awareness, she was able to come to us because she found us online. Go through the programs, the mentorship program for example. In two months she found her fabulous. She was able to start an online business by her own brand, which was a chili paste that she did. She made four figures in just two months.

A ten-year stay-at-home-mom transforms her life, got fabulous, got financial independence. She really don’t need the money. It means that she doesn’t need to make a million dollars. For her, having financial independence is good enough. Doesn’t need to ask husband, if I want to do my hair today, or do my eyelashes today, or do my nails today. “Hey, I don’t need to ask my husband for the money. I can make a decision of my own.” That really transformed the woman’s life. I really believe that what we do here is helping woman to change their life so that their entire community will benefit.

Yeah, wow. In America, where most of our listeners are, most of our listeners are in the US, Canada, Australia. Statistics show that a woman, even if she has a full-time job outside of the home, she still does the majority of the household duties, so to speak. In Singapore, would you say, I assume that that’s also the case? Is that true?

I think it’s not just whether it’s Singapore or not Singapore. I see two groups of women. Women who believe in adding more value and delegating, versus another group of women who just believe that they should do everything because their mothers taught them and their grandmothers taught them how to do so. I give example, my mom, she would expect me to do household chores and she would nag at me. She’d be like, “Hey girl you got to be cleaning up your room, wash the toilet, clean the floor.” And I’m like, “Mom, I think my time is more valuable than that. Why don’t I just get a helper for you, a maid for you? So that this helper can just do the things that you want her to do, while my value of my time, instead of being stuck at home trying to clean the floor like Cinderella, I will just take you out. Let’s go out. Let’s travel. Do stuff together.”

So the value of the time, what do you see of value and your worth? Then outsource and delegate. Even I do that in my business a lot; delegating and outsourcing. Then there’s another group of women who believe in the value. So one group of women who don’t believe in helpers, extra help. The other group of women who believe that they could delegate and outsource. I’ve women in the community who trains a helper to do the stuff. There’s SOP and there’s a process to everything, you know? She could go out and do the things she want to do, while raising three kids who know are in gifted schools. Then another lady in another group of women would be like grumbling, “I’m so busy. I have no time. I have to take care of my kid. I have to do the laundry. It’s so difficult. Life is very hard.”

You hear two camps in the community. I always encourage both sides to interact with each other and share with each other how to have better quality of life. I understand the meaning of quality of life. I always tell them, “Girls, when you’re in the community, help one another. Share with each other your experiences. Help each other open up and transform each other’s mindset.” If you don’t change your mindset. The thing about society, the mom, the grandmothers who taught us that women must be this, must be that. Hey, that should already be broken or starting to change. We have been in Soul Rich Woman doing this for the last five years. We really believe in alone we are strong and together we are unstoppable.

That is a powerful statement. Alone we are strong, but together we are unstoppable. So you have how many women across South East Asia that are part of your network?

Right now, we are at two hundred thousand and we would like to have a million members.

How does that work? Does somebody actually join, or do they come to an event, or are they mentored? How does somebody join the Soul Rich Woman?

It’s really very interesting. There are a couple of ways that they join. Usually there is a pattern to join Soul Rich Woman. Because we are ultimately an online platform, we only hold three events a year. But we are in South East Asia by working with partners and everything. Most of them would have joined by watching a webinar, or a Facebook Live, or listen to our podcasts. So they’ll be somewhere swimming online and then they would come through the funnels and join Soul Rich Woman.

Our membership is twelve dollars a month. This is the price number, after five years we have charged different pricing and adjusted different pricing, and eventually we decided it’s twelve dollars a month. I find that the women in South East Asia, the earnings that they are making is so different from what most of us are making. In Vietnam, a lot of them are making three hundred USD a month. In the Philippines, depending where you’re at, in Manila it can go up to five, six hundred USD a month. For Malaysia, different countries have different salary, so there’s a gap.

If you were to charge a hundred dollars USD a month membership versus a twelve dollar a month membership, and of course you must see what kind of value you give. That’s when they will be able to join. For mine, it’s only twelve dollars and two hundred thousand members. In the membership, what we do, we provide is to solve one problem every single month. We only provide two videos. Two master classes with office hours. Yeah, and women just sign up. Regardless of you pay gap, or pay that you are receiving, you can afford twelve dollars, right? That’s my logic and it worked.

It has worked so amazing. It blew our minds like, “Wow@” People are just signing up, because first of all, it’s affordable and it allows women to have accessibility. Of course, women who want to scale their business, who want to do more for their business or transform their business and life more and at a different level, then they will sign up for the two-day workshop or the digital products. Or they would do a mentorship program, or the Mastermind programs. There is different levels that we are looking at like the value ladder.

Now you’re winning in a huge way in South East Asia, but I also know you’re doing a lot of podcast interviews with people like me where my audience is primarily in the United States. I see you in other podcasts. Are you looking to expand to the United States? Do you just enjoy talking to people that have a different audience? Help me understand. What are you trying to do here?

This part of the strategy is to really get seen and be known to an audience that I’ve not touched with. I think after building South East Asia, there is a network here for your listeners, who are listening right now, that’s you. To know that if you were to travel to South East Asia, there is a network you can tap on. That’s what I want to do, to let people know on the other side of the world, that such a network exists. And it’s really huge and amazing. If you were to ever come to South East Asia, connect with us.

I love it. Let’s talk for a minute about the woman who is listening right now. Maybe she’s never had a business at all. She’s been a stay-at-home-mom. Maybe her kids are getting older and she’s thinking, “I want to have some financial independence.” I assume you would suggest that she would start some sort of online business? Why would you suggest that? And how would you suggest she would go about doing that?

I always fall back on our Soul Rich Woman blueprint, which is a magic wand. I talk about the metaphor of Cinderella and how the fairy godmother holds the magic wand and “bing”, but you must come back by twelve midnight, right? So Cinderella eventually became who she was again after coming back from the ball. As a fairy godmother, you’re holding the magic wand. The power is in your own hands. No matter what, where, or who you are, a man is not a financial plan. Number two, you can be the fairy godmother. You don’t have to wait for a fairy godmother.

The wand is a star, made up of a star, made out of the glow, and the stick is what we call the magic funnels. So the women of influence, and then the glow, and then that stick itself. When you are a stay-at-home-mom and you want to start a business, I will say to not even think about starting the online business first, but first by looking at the star. Think about it, on social media, and everywhere else now, you can have the best funnel in the world and I can build a funnel in ten minutes. But if you are not a star, a glow, having a glow of sorts, nobody will ever notice you.

First step is to build up your star. What is a star? A star means, what kind of influence? What are you talking about on social media? Even before they click the link to say, “Join Now to my free 10-day workshop,” or ” Free one-day webinar,” or whatever the case may be. If the image is not capturing attention, the words you use are not capturing attention, people will not even notice you. Step number one is always work on your star. Find somebody to extract that out from you. Find a coach, find a mentor, or sign up for David’s program, to Launch Your Life online.

Really look at it. Then look at how that works for you by building this part of the brand. Then go to the next step. A lot of mistakes that women make is they create the best website, the best social media, the best funnel, but it’s the technical stuff. People resonate with your story. A lot of the women resonate with my story, and that’s why they joined Soul Rich Woman. I was working at a very young age, and the group of women who join us also have suffered to a certain extent before they join us.

I had been in debt before. I was bankrupt. All these things to a woman is like devastating. There’s no way out. Your psychology gets stuck and you can’t even go places. When you are able to let your audience resonate with you, like doing a podcast, writing a blog, doing a Facebook Live, whatever that may be easiest for you, get started. Get there so that your star is shining, your voice is heard. That is when you can eventually start an online business. That’s when your audience is ready to buy from you. A group of raving fans, whatever that you offer they purchase from you.

How would you describe your star? You are a star in your own right. We all are stars. I hear what you’re saying, that’s beautiful. But how would you describe your star?

I would describe my star in three words. I will say my star is fabulous. I have the fabulous part of my story. I have that freedom part of my story. And I have my financial independence part of the story. And above all, family. I put all these as part of my star, so that the women can resonate and relate.

Is a man part of your plan?

Definitely, a man is part of my plan. We are not feminists, you know. I really believe in a balanced viewpoint. My partner has invested in my business. He’s now become my partner, before that he was my mentor. To me, having a man in the business to help the balance of viewpoint. In fact, we’re about to launch the men’s side, which is Soul Rich Man. So Soul Rich Woman and Soul Rich Man. It’s all about having that balance viewpoint, and that truly I believe in. Because when women come to the community, they do have sometimes husband issues or relationship issues. By having a strong support group of both men and women, like each other’s success stories and what they’ve gone through, really help one another.

Awesome. All right, so if people want to connect with you, two websites; www.geneciaalluora.com, and we’ll have that spelling in the show notes. Also www.soulrichwoman.com. Can somebody join Soul Rich Woman if they don’t live in South East Asia?

Yes, we have members not from South East Asia joining us at twelve a month, so you can join us. In fact, I have two gifts for you, who is tuning in right now. You should go and check out my Seven Secrets of Personal Branding. Go and download that. That really will help you. That’s the book that I wrote. The other one is How to Delegate 80% of Your To-Do List to Your Assistant, so you can be in your zone of genius and make more money.

Go to my website SoulRichWoman.com. Please connect with me at Genecia Alluora on Facebook, LinkedIn, or Instagram. I will love to hear your views on today’s episode.

Genecia, can I become a Soul Rich Woman?

Well, there are guys in Soul Rich Woman if you do the twelve dollars a month membership. Generally, if there are events, usually it’s women only. Unless we’re partnered with companies, like we partnered with a media company and we opened up the event to both men and women because we’re talking about getting leads and how you generate leads online. But when we talk about women empowerment stuff, where women feel safe, that’s when it’s an all-woman event

I get it. All right, I’ll stand outside the door and just kind of listen in.

You can wear a skirt if you want to.

I could wear a skirt and come in. Yes, that’s right. I could do that. Genecia, thank you so much for sharing your story, and thank you for sharing your wisdom. I’m blown away by what you’ve been able to do and what you’ll continue to do. You’ve got a long journey ahead of you. I can’t imagine how many women and men will be impacted by your work, so thank you.

Thank you.

Good, good. Good stuff. You are really kicking butt.

Sure.

I realized it wasn’t working. I think when we get to that place where we’re trying to start setting boundaries with people or we’re trying to be respected, we think that we have to act a certain way, but honestly, you can act however you are. Just show up as yourself and set boundaries. So if you are sort of like me, you can still be a boundaried person, you can still give tough love.

Of course.

You ask some people and they’re like, “Oh wow, we don’t overstep with her.” You can still be respected.

Sure.

By being this way. You don’t have to be hardcore.

Yeah, yeah. I said that about reading your book, in your book you come through as very — I never even used that word sweet. I feel awkward. I hope that doesn’t feel awkward to you.

Not at all. No, no, no, not at all.

But the book is very authentic. It comes through as sweet. But the cover is not sweet. The cover is like, “I am going to kick your butt!”

It’s so funny you said that because there’s a whole story behind the cover. I haven’t really shared it yet. If you want, I can share it with you how we got this picture.

Do it.

So the morning that we were about to go and have this cover shoot, I had a photographer flying in from Dallas. I’m so excited. I’m in my head.

Because there are no photographers in New York. You had to have somebody fly in from Dallas. What the heck?

She’s so good at book covers. She’s done so many book covers that I just had to have her.

I love it.

Yeah, I was just in my head, “How am I going to make this the best cover? How am I going to look the best?” This and that. I didn’t like my hair. Long story short, I actually went and grabbed kitchen shears and cut my hair.

You did not!

Yes. Yes. I had just gotten a haircut. It was one of those quick ones from those walk-in places because I didn’t have enough time to see my regular girl, and it just was not what I wanted. So I YouTubed how to cut your own hair, did it. It looks fine on the cover. It doesn’t look horrible.

It looks great! Yeah.

My little ones were sick. They were up the whole night before. It was just one of those days where you’re just like, “I don’t even want to do this. I feel like a mess, life’s a disaster.” Went to this cover shoot. Again, I think often we get so caught up in our heads about me, me, me. What are people going to think? What are they going to think about the cover? How are they going to perceive me? This or that. I got caught in my head that morning.

Then there was a moment during the shoot, and she was snapping me, taking these pictures. There’s a million of these pictures. I just said, “I just want to pause for a second because I need to get out of my head.” I just started to think about — it clicked. “This book is not about me. Why am I making this about me? This is ridiculous. I’m being so silly right now. This book is about all these women who need to hear what’s inside of this.”

Sure.

“So why am I making this cover pictures about me?” There was this beautiful song on the background the photographer had on, I just started to get teary. I’m not really a crier at all. I rarely cry. I started to get teary. She was like, “Stay like that. Just stay like that,” and she just snapped the pictures. I’m like, “That’s going to be the picture.” So I’m actually on the verge of tears in this picture.

Wow.

So it’s so funny because it looks like a boss kind of face, but it’s actually me just in a breakdown moment, going through a breakthrough. Just reminding myself, this is not about me. I knew because I saw the whole series of pictures and I’m like, “That’s the one. It’s right there.”

Nice. Nice, that is very fun. Yeah, well you look gorgeous, and badass, and powerful all at the same time, but the book is an embodiment of your sweetness. Let’s talk about some of the lies, because you do tackle twelve really powerful ones. Do you mind picking? Maybe we’ll just through a few here, some of your favorite lies. Maybe just talk about them for a few minutes.

Yeah.

Is there one that stands out to you?

Probably my favorite is the lie about not having enough time.

Okay, not having enough time. This is lie number nine.

Yes, because we all have the same hours in the day. Right? I think that us saying there’s not enough time, it’s really just an excuse for either, I’m scared or maybe I don’t want whatever I’m saying I don’t have enough time for. It’s about us replacing that lie of, I don’t have enough time with, I actually have more than enough time for the things that are priorities in my life, the people that are priorities in my life. I just have to figure out how to set boundaries and how to get to those places, or get these things that I’m looking for.

Again, I think that for many women, it ties into the lie of, I can’t be a good business owner and a good mom, like I think a lot of us tell ourselves. I can’t have a business and be a mom because I don’t have the time. I think we find all of these little excuses rather than just move ahead. I think it’s just, how can you stop today and evaluate your schedule, evaluate all of the priorities, and all of the commitments in your life, and just start to live your life doing what you want to do?

Not doing what you think you should do, or what you need to do, or what you have to do, and just starting asking yourself, what do I actually want? Because that’s the only way to get where you want to go, is to know what it is that you want. Now that I know what I want, how can I set the boundaries to get there? Because I think in order to get there, we have to set boundaries. We have to cut things out.

As you’re working with women, what are some of those things that you have found that your clients have to say no to in order to create that time that they need in order to start something in their life?

I think sometimes it could be something as easy as letting someone pick your brain or saying no to a relationship that maybe isn’t serving you anymore. Maybe it’s very one-sided, maybe it’s toxic, maybe it’s saying no to something as little as Netflix. My dream is very big and I want to get there, I need to say no to some of these habits or behaviors that I have that aren’t serving me anymore. Setting boundaries like saying no to driving someone to airport if maybe you don’t need to.

I think sometimes it’s hard for us to say no right away to things, so what I always like to say is, just say, “Hey, let me go check my calendar,” or “Let me get back to you.” I think we live in this day and age with Instagram DM’s and Facebook PM’s that we feel like we have to get back to people right away. We feel like we have to rush. There is no rush. We don’t owe anyone anything. It’s okay to say, “I’ll get back to you tomorrow,” or “I’ll get back to you in a few days.”

I think that when we do that, it gives the other person the expectation of, “Oh, maybe I need to look for backup.” Or, “Maybe this is not going to work out and that’s fine, so I’m going to find these other avenues to take.” So I think just starting there, sometimes just saying no or saying let me get back to you.

It seems like you’re saying we need to say no to other people possibly, but also I hear you saying that we may need to say no to ourselves.

Yeah.

I think that one’s just as hard.

Yeah.

What are some of the things? You mentioned Netflix, but what are some other things that you have coached your clients to have to say no to?

I think we allow other people’s behavior, right? So we can put a line down in the sand and say, “No you’re not crossing this.” I think often we almost play the victim of, “These people are overstepping my boundaries.” But it’s like, no, you’re actually overstepping your own boundaries, like you’re replying back right away, you’re not saying no to their request. So I think that we need to sometimes pause ourselves. I think it’s hard.

I think it’s almost harder at times to set a boundary with ourselves than with other people. I think for some people it’s just as simple as penciling things into your calendar. Like, “I’m going to take a lunch break.” Or, “I’m going to take a little bit of self-care time.” Rather than letting your schedule just overflow with these commitments, or these things that maybe really aren’t serving you or aren’t moving the needle in your life or your business.

I think another thing is that sometimes we have to say no to things that we actively want to do, because maybe they’re not the best opportunity for us right now. Or maybe we want to do it because we want to say yes out of scarcity. If I don’t say yes to this, I might miss out on this opportunity. Or if I don’t say yes to this, I may never get this opportunity again. I think if that’s your mindset, I think that you need to again, always step back and get quiet.

That’s the answer for everything. Step back, get quiet, and say, “What is it that I really want? How is this really serving me right now? Is this something that, yes, it’s a great opportunity, but maybe it’s not what I need in this moment.” I think that saying no to even great things will open up space for even better things to come in, and those opportunities may arise again in the future.

I love how you said at the beginning about our chat about this particular lie, that it’s really about determining what is your highest priority.

Yeah.

And how do you then make the decision in light of that? That is so hard. That is so hard sometimes. Especially when we’ve been doing something for so long, whatever the rut is we’re in. Choosing to help other people or whatever it might be. It’s like, “Okay, well you only have so much time.”

Yeah.

So you can spend it helping that other person as they pick your brain and that’s not going to help you with your business or whatever.

Yeah.

Or you can spend that time focused on moving your business forward. That is just so hard. So hard. So I don’t have enough time. So state that again, you said I have more than enough time. I heard you say that.

Yeah.

End of that statement though.

I have more than enough time for my priorities, for the people that I care about, for the things that I want most in life. There’s always enough time. Always enough time.

Yeah, so good. Okay, what’s another lie that’s a favorite of yours?

The hardest chapter for me to write was the motherhood chapter, chapter seven.

Okay, I can’t possibly have a successful business and be good mom. How old are your kids right now?

Fifteen months and two and a half.

And they’re both girls?

Both girls. Charlie and Annabelle, yeah.

Gosh, that’s so cute. Such cute names. Charlie, how did you come up with that name?

I always loved the name Charlie. Her real name is Charlotte, but I said I want a daughter named Charlie. Annabelle’s the first, you know how you just feel like a name is right or wrong for the baby? “I love this name. I love it, but maybe it’s not the right time,” like we just talked about. “I always loved the name Charlie, but I just felt like I don’t think this is the name for her. I’d like Annabelle for her, so we’re going to go with Annabelle.” Then for the second one I’m like, “She’s Charlie. She’s definitely my Charlie.”

What did your husband say?

Oh, he loved the name too.

Okay, and he was cool with Annabelle? He didn’t need the first child to be Charlie?

Yeah. No, no.

Glad you guys were on the same page. I wanted to name our son Remington and my wife was not up for that because we knew somebody with a dog named Remington and it just ruined the whole thing. Okay, so I can’t possibly have a successful business and be a good mom. Why did you believe that?

Yeah, so I was in a place where we didn’t have kids yet. We had a dog and I remember my husband saying to me, “Kate, all you do is talk about not having enough time. You don’t have enough time to bring him to training.” We both did our fair share of training him. “You don’t have enough time to play with him. How are you ever going to –,” and he said this out of complete love too. I just want the preface with that, he said it out of complete love. “How are you ever going to have enough time to have kids if we want to have a family some day?”

That got me thinking, “All right, I don’t actually know if I want to have a family someday. I’m not sure if that is something that I’m still going to want to do, because I really love my business.” I was in a place where it was probably an unhealthy place. I really love to work and I love the work that I do. Our pregnancy was a surprise and it was exactly what I needed. It was a gift that was handed to me. Because I really think that if I had not become a mother, I probably would not be where I am right now. My relationship with my husband probably would have gone in a different direction. I would have been a workaholic. I wouldn’t have been in a good mind space. I would not have written this book. So I think it was just such a gift.

It was something that I really had to work though. At first I felt like, “Okay, I can handle this. I think that my baby will probably take a nap, will probably sleep. I can work during those hours.” Of course, we had the baby that never napped and didn’t take a bottle, so we couldn’t even get her into daycare because she wasn’t on a bottle. I was in such a low place, just believing that I lost my businesses. That this was over and I’d have to go back to maybe a nine to five in the future. That’s actually how the book was born. I was just was in my head, just feeling like I lost everything, even though I had this beautiful baby in my arms. I just started to write my feelings down on paper. Little by little, it ended up turning into this book. Everything in this book started with that motherhood chapter.

Wow.

What I realized is that number one, moms and dads are superheroes. They can get anything done. Give something to them and they will get it done, even if they’re busy. Because they’re typically very good at boundaries. Everything that I do in life and business now, this is something that I like to ask myself is, “Do I really want to do this?” Because me going and letting someone pick my brain for an hour, that’s an hour that I’m away from my kids and away from my family. Is it really worth it? Is it really going to make that much of an impact? Am I making more of an impact on that person? Or on my family? Is there a way that I can make a bigger impact in a middle ground?

So now it’s like, “All right, maybe I can do a whole meet up and invite lots of women over for coffee.” That’s what I do actually quarterly at my house. Or can I sit down a write a blog? Can I ask that person, “Hey, what were your questions? I’m really interested to hear. I really want to help you but I think that these questions can be answered to a lot more people. I think a lot of people can get value from this, so I’m going to write a blog post about it instead.” And sit down, and maybe that forty-five minutes of writing the blog post will make such a big impact on many people.

I’ve learned to just become very good at simplifying too and just making things easy. That’s my motto. Just make it easy. Make it easy. Sometimes it just drives people crazy. Because they’re like, “Yeah, but this would be great.” I’m like, “No, just make it easy. Don’t make it hard on yourself. Just make it easy.”

So now you have a successful business and you’re a good mom.

Yeah.

How does that feel?

It feels great. Yeah, it feels great. I will say there are days where I do at times still feel like I’m failing at both, but I remind myself this is just a feeling right now, this will pass, and here’s the evidence. This is why I’m a good mom, and this is why I am good at my business, and this is how my business is succeeding. I think that with every new up-level in life and business, there’s always going to be a breakdown before the breakthrough.

You’re going to be challenged and pushed in a different way and I think that’s just growth. I think that in every new opportunity, it’s going to feel scary or you’re not going to feel equipped. Reminding yourself and showing yourself that past evidence of how you were in the past and how you can get through it again.

How would your journey have been different if you would have had this book prior to starting your therapy practice?

Oh, I love that question. I would have saved myself a lot of money.

What did you spend money on?

Just things that, again, I thought I had to have, or needed to have, or should have, like investing in copywriters too early on in my business. Investing in really nice branding too early on in my business. I say, if you’re going to start a business, just get it started. Don’t make everything perfect. Save your money for a little bit later. Once you feel like you have your target audience, you’re bringing income into your business, you really feel secure and confident, then start to invest in that stuff.

Just do it scrappy in the beginning, piece it together. Everyone has to start somewhere. There is some quote out there. I can’t remember it, I’m going to botch it. But it’s like, if you’re not embarrassed by your early beginnings, you started way too late. Yeah, it would have saved me a lot of money. I just wish this book was around back then, it would have saved me.

Here’s the other thing too, it would have made things easier, but I think sometimes we have to learn on our own. I think we have to learn through our — I don’t like to call it mistakes, but I think we need to trip and fall a little bit. I think we are ready to receive messages at different times, so this book may have been presented to me back then and I would have thought, “Oh, I don’t need this right now. I’ve got it all together.” But today if this book would have been given to me, I would have said, “Oh, I need this today.”

Well, I’m glad that the book wasn’t there for you, because now you’ve written it.

Yeah.

And it’s a great resource for everyone else. The book is available now on Amazon and it’s called Thinking Like a Boss: Uncover and Overcome the Lies Holding you Back From Success. You can swipe up on your phone and the link is in our show notes right there on your phone, or you can go to our website and you can find it there, the link to amazon. So Kate, I love, love, love this book. I love your heart.

Thank you.

It’s fun getting to know you and how you’re making a difference in the world, so thank you for writing this book.

Thank you so much. This is a great conversation.

Authenticity is when a person’s actions are aligned with their beliefs and desires. By being authentic, we can create more trusting and meaningful relationships. Although, with external pressures of our society and the media, it is difficult to stay true to yourself. It is even more difficult to be authentic online.

Being authentic online is not as easy as taking selfies, sharing articles, heart-felt quotes or having a professional profile taken. This is because the online persona can be completely different from the person you meet in person.

Authenticity is having that voice of “you” online and that same voice of “you” offline.

Use that voice to share your message, your passion, your purpose, your mission.
You are being you! You don’t need to feel the peer pressure to post because someone else posted.

67: Gary Vaynerchuk Says Regrets Will Scare You Shitless

Our special guest today is best known for his work in digital marketing and social media as the chairman of New York-based communications company, VaynerX, and as CEO of VaynerX subsidiary, VaynerMedia.Please sit back and relax while listening to Gary Vaynerchuk. In this episode, we’ll be moved and inspired on how he differentiates men and women of influence.

Embrace your Differences

Being influential can sometimes be natural or forced. It can be forced simply because people are expecting you to step up or someone is watching you. The influence that comes out naturally and willingly will be determined in the ability to adjust to individual differences. As human beings, we all have a fair shot on being influential.

Gary stated his point of view on influence by saying:

(3:03)“My viewpoints on women are exactly the same as my viewpoint with some men. They’re human beings that ran the world. I’m intrigued by the notion of the conversation of anything men, women, minorities, to me I think it’s pretty binary , I think it’s humans versus other animals so you know obviously I understand the differences I think there’s an unbelievable amount of advantages for all sexes, all races to me I’m optimistic about that.

Advantage of being different

Sometimes we are led by fear and lack of self-confidence to embrace our differences, so we shy away from being influential. We fail to realize that what makes us different can make us shine. We just don’t recognize it.
(3:42) “Embrace your differences because they’re your advantages. I don’t ever have a great answer for other than I think there’s a lot of advantages to being a woman and that you should figure those out and execute against that.”

Character matters

In life, we face different people and obstacles, but we must never let go of our values and character. They are essential foundations to the kind of influence we will have.

Gary V. clearly stated
(4:23) “I don’t think a lot of people think about influence, I think it’s natural, there’s a lot of words for it, charisma, popularity to me the thing that I’m surprised by is how many people don’t realize that your interpersonal skill set is probably the biggest variable to your happiness and success in life. One of the things I spend a lot of time thinking about is how incredibly naive it is to not be kind, to not be empathetic to not be grateful.”

Let history be your teacher

You don’t need to experience something to be good at it, sometimes what others did right or wrong can be your ticket to a better future or business that them.

(5:43) “I’m a very big fan of looking at history like all the answers have been in front of your face the whole time there are literally, very few people in the history of time that have created meaningful businesses and lasted a decade. So what I would tell people are instead of thinking you’re going to be the once in a generation person that box the trends of how much time and effort and smarts and hard work it takes to being successful Why don’t you look at the 20 plus years that took Amazon to get here and start realizing that it will take a lot of hard work and a lot of time.”

Key Takeaways:

Have confidence.
Embrace differences.
Success needs a lot of time and effort.
Either you do it now or you will regret it.
Try to communicate what you’re scared of.
