We made it! Reprogramming turns ONE YEAR OLD this week. When we launched on May 31st, 2023-- I had no idea the rollercoaster of emotion this little podcast would have me on: -excitement -overwhelm -frustration -gratitude -pinch-me bliss -empowerment ...the works. On today's episode, I reflect on what I've learned-- including tips and tricks for getting a podcast off the ground, what it really takes to keep it afloat, where I could have personally done better, and where I'm taking this thing in the future. (Spoiler alert: a change is gonna come!) For all my guests and listeners who made this dream possible over the past year, THANK YOU. If it's ever touched or entertained you in some way, I'd be honored if you share it with your network. Here's to another year of REPROGRAMMING the status quo!

If you’re an entrepreneur or business owner, chances are you’ve heard of or have even practiced the concept of “CEO days.” I’ll admit, when I first launched my business, I took this to mean a day or long weekend at a lavish hotel, noshing on room service, taking yourself out for a massage and cocktail, and getting creative about the next phase of your business. SOOOO SEXY, RIGHT? Well, that’s amazing, but I quickly realized in life with 2 young kids, those types of CEO days would be far and few between. For a while, I kind of gave up on the idea of it all together. Enter today’s guest, who shares the *truth* about CEO days, along with what it was like to be raised by successful entrepreneurs, how she stays blissfully booked out, and this novel idea that as a business owner, you “don’t have to be stressed out.” Mind blowing, right? It’s a great conversation. Rachel Meltzer is a freelance writing coach (and a freelance writer, of course). She's coached over 100 freelance writers on launching their businesses and getting clients.

If there’s one thing I have had a nonstop passion for since the moment I became a professional, it’s the idea that the corporate workspace as we know it is archaic and outdated. From inflexible scheduling to being forced to work in-office, the established corporate expectation no longer makes sense for the majority of employees. Back when I started my career, the thought of working remotely and on a personalized schedule was but a dream, but after the pandemic, we were shown that business could, in fact get done from wherever, and whenever it made the most sense. This new sense of possibility opened up opportunities for so many employees who thrive with a “outside the corporate box” setup. Yet, many corporate entities are ignoring these facts and attempting to have everyone settle back into the old way, causing large quantities of employees to quit that lifestyle and venture out on their own. (Spoiler alert: not the “risky” decision society might make you want to believe it is!) On today’s Reprogramming, I speak with a copywriter who realized her health and wellbeing mattered much more than fitting into a corporate mold. We discuss why many white-collar jobs are still stuck in this old way of doing business, and what life looks like on the other side, as a freelancer and small business owner. Lisa Kissane is a freelance copywriter on a mission to make well-being services more accessible for everyone. Through her business, Silvertongue Copywriting, she supports wellbeing practitioners and organizations, specializing in sales-focused writing such as websites and emails. But, without the ick of traditional marketing methods. CONNECT WITH LISA: silvertonguecopywriting.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-kissane-💚-2b36571a9/

What if we viewed life and business through a wider lens? What if instead of shooting out a few sales emails to a new list subscriber or pushing for the $100k launch, we looked at the bigger picture, or the full lifecycle? On today's episode of Reprogramming, Shlesha Pandey teaches us about how email lifecycles can teach us something about life and business as a whole, and how it all factors into the practice of ethical marketing. You may have a big, satisfying "aha moment" at the end of the conversation, like I did! Shlesha Pandey is a seasoned strategist in lifecycle and retention marketing, with a talent for crafting campaigns that not only capture attention but also drive customer loyalty and sales. She has worked on the art of integrating strategic insight with creativity, significantly boosting revenue for numerous brands through effective lifecycle marketing. At her core, Shlesha is a storyteller and a thinker, adept at turning every email into a compelling narrative that resonates with audiences and fosters lasting customer relationships.

Is balance real? If you’re a parent with young kids and a full time job, you may have come to the realization that balance is a magical, flying unicorn you may meet one day, in some other chapter of life. Or maybe there’s a better way to approach it all- whether you have kids or not. We’ve had plenty of incredible moms on the show, but today’s guest gives us our deepest dose of reality yet. Ashley Fabry is a wife, mom of two, and founder of Ashley Rose Branding, LLC. After nearly ten years in corporate marketing including roles in healthcare, consumer goods, and B2B; she founded her business to make a greater impact on her community. She shares her approach to planning not one, but two very different maternity leaves while running a thriving business, plus priceless nuggets about reprogramming your expectations, tapping into your most *valuable resource* (hint- you already have it), and the phrase about balance that’s stuck with me ever since. If you’re a business owner, this episode will shift the way you think about work/life balance and what’s possible. You don’t want to miss it.

Are you a little woo-woo? Or maybe you're a little woo-hesitant. (Understandable!) Either way, you may be curious about how using it to make small shifts in your daily routine can make a noticeable difference in your life and business-- without going way off into lala land. On today’s episode of Reprogramming, I chat with Polly Clover, a former teacher- now SEO strategist and copywriter on how *ahem* reprogramming her habits and mindset with woo helped change her entire perspective. We talk about what’s just the right amount of woo vs. what’s too much… and how the online space may have taken it all a little too far. Polly Clover is an SEO Writer and Consultant. She started her business five years ago after experiencing teacher burnout. Polly helps businesses that inspire the good things in life, including wellness and travel brands and like-minded service providers, increase their organic website traffic.

I was sorely mistaken when I wrote the intro for this episode of Reprogramming. When I learned I'd interview a "productivity mentor", I assumed we'd all get a needed schooling on how to make better use of our time, and maybe even some reprogramming on how we think about time. What we uncovered today is SO MUCH BETTER. This is a mindfulness discussion. This is all about presence. It's about reprogramming to what you TRULY WANT. And when all is said and done, you'll learn the REAL secret to implementation in your life and business- and it's not what you think. Join me for this incredible episode that will change the way you think about productivity and implementation forever.

She partners with coaches, consultants and community-builders who have a big, exciting vision, helping them land their ideas in reality, reach more people and make a bigger impact, whilst taking care of everything they’re juggling day-to-day and being kind to themselves along the way. Louise is a productivity mentor, the founder of Make It Happen Club and host of the Unfrazzle podcast. Described by her clients as a soothing balm and a magician, her experience of work-related stress and anxiety led her to develop a slower, more mindful approach to productivity, which she uses to help her clients get the important things done.

If I could give any advice in 2024, it would be to make the time and space to remember who you are. Remember why it is you do what you do. Why did you go into your field? What lights you up about it? What are you supremely and uniquely talented at? Digging deeper is what will set you apart. Knowing who you are will elevate you. Your personal brand is the foundation that will support you through good times and bad. On today's solo episode of Reprogramming, I share what happened when I hit my own rock bottom last year and how having a solid personal brand lifted me out of my hole of despair and into the realm of possibilities. I'll also share why it's essential to embrace pivots and evolution in your business or career. The best part about this episode? You'll be inspired to get to the bottom of who *you* are and celebrate everything you are right now.
