    The #1 Soft Skill That Makes You Unforgettable in Business | with Eric Poris

    What makes someone memorable in business? Sometimes, it starts with something as simple as remembering their name. In this episode of The Coffee o'Clock Podcast, Burcu Onaranel Erten sits down with Eric Poris — dad, Founder & CEO of Easyworld Academy, author, and speaker — to explore the power of soft skills, human connection, and turning life's challenges into strengths. Eric's mission is to help non-native English speakers thrive in business, but his approach to communication goes far beyond language. Growing up without a father, having a disabled brother, and being raised by a caring, hard-working mother shaped Eric's empathy and his ability to recognize people's needs and strengths. Today, those experiences influence how he leads, connects with clients, and builds his business. In this conversation, Eric also shares one simple but powerful skill you can use at your next networking event, conference, or business meeting: remembering people's names. In this episode, we talk about: • How to remember people's names and make stronger connections • Why soft skills matter in business and networking • Turning personal challenges into professional strengths • The role of empathy in entrepreneurship and leadership • Communicating confidently as a non-native English speaker • Building meaningful relationships in business • How our life experiences can shape the way we lead and serve others Whether you're an entrepreneur, speaker, leader, or professional looking to become a better communicator, this conversation is a reminder that people may not remember everything you say — but they will remember how you made them feel. 🌟 CONNECT WITH ERIC PORIS Website: https://www.easyworldacademy.com Easyworld Academy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/easyworld_academy/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericporis/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eric_poris/ 🌟 CONNECT WITH BURCU ONARANEL ERTEN Website: https://www.joyyburcu.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joyyburcu/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joyyburcu/ 🎧 Follow The Coffee o'clock Podcast for more conversations about entrepreneurship, authentic branding, personal growth, leadership, and building a business and life that truly reflect who you are.

    The 8/8 Lionsgate Portal for Entrepreneurs: What You Should Do

    What if building a successful business isn't only about having the right strategy—but also about understanding who you are, how you naturally operate, and who you are becoming? Recorded at the iconic New York Café in Budapest and released for the 8/8 Lionsgate Portal, this special conversation brings together two different—but deeply connected—approaches to entrepreneurship. Burcu Onaranel Erten, International Speaker, Branding & Business Growth Strategist, joins Kübra Özgüvenç, Sustainable Income Coach and founder of Unison Temple, to explore what happens when branding, business strategy, nervous system awareness, alignment, and self-discovery come together. Because every business has a brand. And every business has a nervous system. Are you building yours in alignment with who you actually are? In This Episode We explore: • Why knowing who you are is the foundation of a sustainable personal brand • The connection between your identity, nervous system, and business decisions • Why strategy without alignment can lead to burnout—and alignment without structure can become an "expensive hobby" • How Burcu's A.U.T.H.E.N.T.I.C.ity™ Code begins with Alignment • Using your birth chart as a tool for self-discovery • Finding a speaking, content, and visibility strategy that works for YOU • Why you don't need thousands of followers to build a profitable business • Why quality over quantity matters when building authority • How to create a brand and business model you can actually sustain Burcu brings the strategy, positioning, branding, authority, and roadmap. Kübra brings alignment, nervous system awareness, astrology, and understanding your individual nature. Together, we ask: How do you build a business that not only makes money—but also works for the person running it? ✨ Our Message for This 8/8 You don't need to do everything or be everywhere. And you definitely don't need to build your business exactly like somebody else built theirs. Know who you are.Release what no longer belongs to you.Embody who you are becoming.Build the right structure.Create your own roadmap.And allow your business—and your next version—to grow in alignment with you. 🦁 Your 8/8 Practice: Release, Embody & Build ✨ STEP 1 — Kübra: Release & Embody Listen to Kübra's Drumming Meditation once a day for 28 days.

    The YOUpreneur Mindset with Chris Ducker | Build a Brand That Grows Your Business

    In this episode of The Coffee o'clock Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with keynote speaker, bestselling author, entrepreneur, and business coach Chris Ducker. Chris is known for helping entrepreneurs and industry leaders grow their influence, income, and impact without sacrificing themselves in the process. Right before this conversation, I finished reading his book YOUpreneur, and one idea especially stayed with me: A successful business should not cost us our identity, freedom, health, or joy. We live in a world where so many people try to copy what already exists instead of fully embracing who they truly are. That's why this conversation felt so important and refreshing. Together, we talked about: • building a personal brand that genuinely reflects who you are • creating a business without burnout • balancing ambition and well-being • the power of authenticity in entrepreneurship • Chris's books Rise of the YOUpreneur and The Long-Haul Leader • and the exciting launch of Authority Collective for authors and experts This episode is full of honest insights, practical wisdom, and powerful reminders for entrepreneurs, speakers, coaches, and anyone building a business around who they are. And hopefully… one day soon we'll also see Chris speaking in Hungary or Turkey. 😊 Learn more about Chris: https://chrisducker.com

    Personal Brand Essentials (Part 2): Why Clarity Turns Interest Into Trust

    In this episode, I explore a truth that quietly determines whether your personal brand builds trust — or hesitation: Clarity is not loud. It is precise. If people often ask, "So… what exactly do you do?" Or they like you, but hesitate to work with you, this conversation is for you. Confusion doesn't repel people loudly. It repels them quietly. When your message lacks clarity, people delay. They move on. Not because your work lacks value — but because it lacks direction. And this is where authenticity matters. Clarity that isn't authentic turns into performance. You start saying what sounds good instead of what is true. Authentic clarity simplifies. It communicates calmly and directly: This is what I do. This is who it's for. This is how it helps. Nothing more. Nothing less. 🌿 In this episode, we explore: • Why confusion creates hesitation • Why choosing strengthens your brand • How clarity becomes a boundary • The role authenticity plays in making clarity land • Why simplicity builds trust faster than complexity This episode is for entrepreneurs and leaders who want their message to feel grounded, aligned, and unmistakably clear. 💬 Reflection question: Can you explain what you do in a way that feels simple, calm, and true — without over-explaining? If this resonates, don't forget to leave a review 🤍   📌 Stay connected with me: 😎 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joyyburcu/ 📝 Medium: https://joyyburcu.medium.com 🖥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp_7tlE3KdlqII3Ad-8ghcA 👩🏼‍💻 Website: https://www.joyyburcu.com 🌎 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joyyburcu/

    Personal Brand Essentials (Part 1): Why Boundaries Create Authority

    In this episode, I share a truth that quietly shapes every strong personal brand — and often gets overlooked: Your personal brand is not built by what you say about yourself. It is built by what you tolerate. How people speak to you. How they value your time. How they treat your work. How they negotiate with you — or try to. Many people believe personal branding is about visibility. But visibility without boundaries doesn't create authority. It creates burnout, resentment, and confusion. This episode invites you to look deeper and ask an important question: What am I teaching people about how to treat me — through my behavior? Because people don't respect explanations. They respect standards. Every time you over-explain, over-give, or over-negotiate, you quietly set a precedent. And that precedent becomes your brand. 🌱 In this episode, we explore: • Why boundaries are the foundation of a strong personal brand • How tolerance silently shapes perception and authority • The difference between authentic boundaries and defensive ones • Why calm clarity builds trust more than confidence or motivation • How emotional regulation becomes part of your brand • Why structure and clarity signal professionalism • How money and negotiation reflect self-respect • Why explanation invites negotiation — and standards invite respect • How boundaries affect both your professional and personal life This episode is especially for entrepreneurs, speakers, leaders, and creatives who are building something meaningful — and want to do it without abandoning themselves in the process. Authentic boundaries don't come from fear. They come from clarity. They feel calm, grounded, and non-negotiable. And that calm is not weakness. That calm is authority. 💬 Reflection question: Where are you tolerating behavior that quietly undermines your value — and what would change if you set a clear standard instead? Don't forget to leave a review 🤍 It helps this podcast reach more people who value depth over noise. 📌 Stay connected with me: 😎 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joyyburcu/ 📝 Medium: https://joyyburcu.medium.com 🖥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp_7tlE3KdlqII3Ad-8ghcA 👩🏼‍💻 Website: https://www.joyyburcu.com 🌎 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joyyburcu/

    Why Motivation Isn't Enough (and What Actually Builds Momentum)

    In this episode, I share an observation that quietly changed the way I think about motivation, consistency, and momentum: Motivation is not what carries you forward — structure is. We're often told that if we want to stay consistent, we need to feel motivated. Inspired. Energized. Ready. But motivation is emotional. And emotions fluctuate. We can care deeply and still feel exhausted. We can be disciplined and still feel stuck. We can believe in what we're building and still find ourselves starting over. This episode invites you to pause and ask a deeper question: Am I relying on motivation — or am I supported by structure? Because motivation creates spikes. Structure creates steadiness. And steadiness is what builds momentum when life gets heavy. 🌱 In this episode, we explore: • Why motivation is unreliable for long-term growth • Why low motivation is not a personal failure • The start–stop–guilt–restart cycle and why it's so exhausting • What momentum actually is (and what it's not) • Why structure supports you when emotions fluctuate • How identity creates calm, sustainable follow-through • The shift from pushing harder to being supported better 💡 This episode is for you if: You're an entrepreneur, speaker, creative, leader, or high achiever who: • Cares deeply but feels tired of starting over • Wants consistency without self-pressure • Is done relying on "feeling ready" • Wants to move forward without abandoning yourself • Values sustainability over intensity Your consistency is not a motivation problem. It's a support problem. This episode helps you build momentum that doesn't depend on how you feel — but on who you are and how you're supported. 💬 Reflection question: Where are you relying on motivation instead of structure — and what would change if momentum carried you instead? Don't forget to leave a review 🤗 It helps this podcast reach more people who value depth over pressure.
