The Value of Exceptional Service with Laura Macleod
This week’s guest is multi-award winning hairdresser and highly acclaimed national educator, Laura Macleod. Just over four years ago, Laura exited her successful, seven-figure business to pursue her true love - educating, mentoring and training salon owners and their teams.
Laura is a champion for her industry and is her clients’ biggest cheerleader. With emphasis in the digital space on “building a community”, Laura has built hers without a digital platform. The secret ingredient? Providing exceptional service. She is heavily invested in her community and they love her for it. Seriously, their loyalty to her is akin to Tay Tay’s Swifties.
In our chat, we talked about the value and importance of service, how she supported her community through the horror show that has been the last 2 years, how important it is for the helpers to have helpers and much more.

Be The Example
As business owners, it is natural for us to look externally for examples of ways of doing things better or differently. If there is something new we want to do, we look for examples around us of people who are doing what we want to do.
When I have conversations with women around boundaries or getting support in their businesses, their blocks come from the fact that they don’t have those examples of what is possible.
Did you know there are people watching you right now that you don’t even know are watching you?
In today’s podcast, I talk about being the example. About showing the women around us that success doesn’t have to mean burnout, late nights and a strung-out version of you.
We can be the circuit breakers and show others that there is other, better, more sustainable ways to live our lives.

Leading Generously with Sharon Williams
One of the qualities that I most admire in women who are at the top of their game is generosity.
Usually, I find it's the women who had to work really, really hard to get to where they are who tend to retain their generous spirit when they reach the top. It’s like they never forget where they came from, no matter how big their teams and their bank accounts become.
Today’s guest is one of those generous leaders.
Sharon Williams is CEO and founder of Taurus Marketing. She is an international marketer, PR strategist, speaker, entrepreneur and media commentator.
Sharon is passionate about empowering, educating, educating and inspiring others.
She created her mentoring program TaurusAcademy© for interns, graduates and members of her team. The support that she provides people through this program, even after they leave her employ, is next level.
I love sharing business success stories and I hope that you will be inspired by Sharon’s.

Retreat for One
Today, I talk about the importance of scheduling in circuit breakers - making space to remove ourselves from our regular responsibilities and surroundings. How restorative this time is and how it inspires limitless, blue-sky thinking.
I have just returned from the most wonderful circuit breaker - my Business Retreat for One.
This is a non-negotiable practice that I have been doing each quarter since I started my business. It’s looked different over that time depending on the season of life, business, budget, lockdowns, etc.
You can do this too. I’m sharing how I make it work in my life and what I do while I’m away so you can identify elements to bring into your own life.

How To Do Marketing with Jane Hillsdon
We get told as we are building our businesses that “those who market well win”. Sadly, there are way too many talented service providers struggling to grow their businesses as they are not born marketers.
If you are someone who finds doing marketing activity overwhelming or put it in the Too Hard Basket, you are going to enjoy today’s action packed episode.
My guest, Jane Hillsdon, is the founder of Dragonfly Marketing and The How To Do Marketing Academy. She has supported hundreds of small business owners make good marketing decisions to ensure it delivers a healthy return on investment for their business.
What I love so much about Jane is her realistic and authentic approach to devising simple marketing strategies - strategies that identify and leverage opportunities, and most importantly, help achieve business goals. Because that is where all the activity should stem from - the goals of the business, not what all the cool kids are doing on social media.
Jane’s positivity and energy is infectious and you are going to walk away from our chat with bucket loads of tips to make marketing easy and do-able so make sure you have your notebook ready.

Customer Reviews
Thank you so much
This is the best podcast in the world, my life has flipped into greatness I feel more happy and organized with my business and life now, you have changed my life, thank you so much xxx❤️❤️
Everyone needs Michelle in their life!
I’m really fortunate that I do actually have Michelle in my life but that’s not why I love her podcast. She is as genuine, fabulous and capable as she seems on air but she also intuitively knows what busy women need. I prioritise her podcast every week because it’s always relevant and it’s also short and to the point. I get something useful every time but I’m never made to feel like I ‘should’ be doing more. Thank you beautiful Michelle.
Practical and Actionable!
Love the tips, tricks and systems Michelle provides, as well as the inspirational guests. There’s something practical and easy to implement in every episode.
