168: Finding Inspiration When You’re Bored and Overwhelmed
07/24/23 • 38 min
Us entrepreneurs are tired, burnt out, and bored. We don’t want the same old thing when it comes to the tools we use and how we run our businesses. We want to put more of an emphasis on making deep connections and friendships in an online space rather than just making a sale.
But, here’s the thing... not all boredom is created equal. Some types of boredom can be destructive, but some types of boredom might even be necessary for our growth.
In this episode, I share how the new social media platform from Meta, Threads led to the epiphany that inspired this episode, how boredom with the traditional marketing and sales strategies is fueling my desire to pivot how I do things in my own business, responses I received when I asked other business owners what they do when they’re feeling bored in their business or disconnected from their purpose, the types of boredom that are necessary for our growth, and more.

167: Amplifying Your Message through Facebook Ads with Ashley Braswell
Regardless of how you feel about Facebook and Facebook ads, I truly believe you’re really going to enjoy my conversation with our guest.
Today, I want to introduce you to my friend, and apparently my doppelgänger, Ashley Braswell. Not only do Ashley and I look startling alike, we also have a shared outlook on how we want to run our business and serve the world. I especially wanted to bring Ashley on the show today because she is an expert when it comes to running Facebook ads.
I know many of us have what we might call and ambivalent relationship with Facebook in general, with ads in general, and with Facebook ads specifically. Yet, I know that when used properly, Facebook ads can really help us grow our business. In fact, I personally experienced that inside Coach with Clarity®.
I’ve brought Ashley on today to specifically talk about the role of Facebook ads, how she approaches it, best practices for coaches who are thinking about using ads to grow their business, how to run ads on a platform we have mixed feelings about, and how to almost hack the system in order to share our message and see more of what we want.

169: How to Work with an Online Business Manager with Robyn Blanton
This week we have a very special guest on the podcast. It’s none other than my Operations Manager, Robyn Blanton. Robyn is also the force behind Kismet Virtual Services.
Robyn and I have been working together for almost three years, but it feels like longer. In fact, it’s hard for me to remember a time in business when Robyn hasn’t been there supporting me because she has become such an essential part of Coach with Clarity©.
In this episode, we allow how we originally connected to inform our conversation around what coaches need to know if they’re looking to hire support in their business.
So, if you’re looking to hire a virtual assistant, an online business manager, a social media manager, or really anyone to help with some of the operations activities of your business, I think you’ll find this conversation particularly enlightening.
