15 - Spot Your Money Blocks: Practical Ideas to Heal Your Relationship with Money & Make More of It with Joanna Doiban
The Align and Inspire Podcast
06/24/24 • 38 min
We talk a lot about sales and marketing as entrepreneurs, but could YOUR relationship with money be what’s holding you back in your business?
In this episode, we’re joined by Joanna Doiban, a wife, mom of 3 boys, and entrepreneur at heart. Joanna is driven by her mission to educate women on wealth activation and money growth, before it's too late. She teaches three pillars of wealth - wealth mindset, money organization and easy-bake-oven “investing” - to busy women and moms, revolutionizing this male-dominated industry from telling you what to do to educating you on how to utilize money intentionality. Joanna was able to leave a high-paying yet toxic business partnership because she started mastering her money in her teenage years and had a nest egg big enough to bridge the gap to her current career. She hopes to instill the urgency of money mastery to all young women so they will always be supported by money throughout their lives.
In this episode, Joanna shares insightful mindset hacks to help you transform and heal your relationship with money, grow your income and minimize limiting patterns and self-beliefs getting in our way. We’ll discuss the energetic nature of money, channeling your intuition and common mistakes that entrepreneurs make when it comes to your money. We even dive into science-backed visualization techniques, selective attention and the power of our reticular activating system!

Creating systems in your online programs can sometimes feel transactional or overwhelming. You might be worried you won't get an ROI on all the energy you're spending setting them up, or how you can possibly charge someone when you're not directly helping them!

11 - 1 Invisible Ingredient to Creating an Offer that Sells with Ease
The Align and Inspire Podcast
05/27/24 • 16 min
A lot of coaches emphasize the need to sell the transformation to our potential clients by sharing topics or deliverables. Even though that is important, your clients might be left wondering how you’ll get them there and whether it’s actually possible for them to achieve that result! If we focus too much on the transformation, our potential clients may feel doubtful they can achieve what they set out to do. That’s why it’s so important for coaches and online experts to be able to succinctly describe HOW they’re going to get their clients results, not just WHAT those results are!
In this episode, we’ll discuss the missing ingredient that could be costing you sales and faster, stronger client results. This shift had a massive impact for me and my own coaching business, as well as my clients and their businesses!
I would love for you to join my brand new workshop called Offer Suites That Sell: How Online Experts Can Map Out Their Programs and Offers the Right Way so They Can Sell With Ease. UPDATE: This will be NOW offered on June 18th, 2024 at 11 am PST (2 pm EST). We’ll discuss how you can create offer suites that sell for you, even if you don’t feel comfortable selling! Register here: http://www.laurenmonique.com/offersuitesworkshop
