    Ep 4: How To Harness Neurodiversity In Business

    When you’re running a business with a brain that moves fast, thinks differently and struggles with the usual rules of work, how do you actually harness that instead of fighting it? Lisa sits down with Professor Sarah Verdon (founder of NeuroBloom Speech Pathology and Professor at Charles Sturt University) to unpack what neurodiversity really means in business. From ADHD and autism to workplace flexibility, late diagnosis, productivity, outsourcing and leadership, Sarah shares how understanding your brain can help you work better, lead better and build a business that supports the way you actually function. What you’ll take away: Why neurodiversity is different wiring and why understanding it can change the way you work and lead. Why labels can help people access the support, treatment and funding they need to thrive. Why comfort, environment and small adjustments at work can have a huge impact on performance. Why business owners with fast moving brains need support, structure and someone to help ground their ideas.

    Ep 3: How Do You Find Momentum When Everything Feels Against You?

    [Trigger Warning: This episode contains honest discussions regarding mental health, hitting rock bottom and online harassment.] When everything seems to be stacked against your business, how do you find the momentum to keep going? Lisa sits down with Jared Walker (That Butcher Shop in Lockhart) to unpack what it really took to survive taking over a business just months before COVID, learning the hard truth about pricing and profit, and rebuilding the business while facing serious health and mental health challenges. From a town of 900 people to producing award winning products recognised internationally, Jared shares how community, leadership, resilience and honest conversations about mental health shaped the business and the life he wanted to build. What you’ll take away: Why many small businesses struggle with pricing and how understanding real costs can completely change your future. What nearly broke the business in the early years and the advice that helped turn the numbers around. How building a brand and moving online helped shift the trajectory of the business. The leadership approach that builds loyal staff and creates a team culture that people actually want to be part of. Why personal health and mental health cannot be separated from running a business. What success can look like when you build a business that supports your life, not the other way around.

    Ep 1: From Broke To Beloved: How A Young Café Founder Built The Press

    When you’re a young business owner, how do you get taken seriously, especially when you’re still building confidence, cash flow and credibility at the same time? Lisa sits down with Rachel Fowler (The Press café in Wagga Wagga) to unpack what it really took to open the doors, the two year lead up, the brutal first 18 months and the choices that built a loyal community and a strong team culture. What you’ll take away: Why “taken seriously” usually comes from consistency and decisions, not age. What the early years actually cost: sleep, health, money and social pressure and what makes it worth it anyway.  The hiring lesson that protects everything: making a backup plan beats hiring the wrong person.  How to think about outsourcing when you hate admin and love the work you’re actually meant to be doing.  What success can look like when it’s based on workplace happiness and life outside work.  Why Rachel’s Instagram engagement works: community as a two way relationship, not constant selling.  Links: Guest Instagram: The Press Mint Agency newsletter sign up: Podcast Newsletter  Credits: Host: Lisa Morey, Founder of Mint Agency Guest: Rachel Fowler, Founder of The Press Café (Wagga Wagga) Production: Podcast Expert Lab Music: “Country Western On” — moodmode (Pixabay) Studio partner: The Streaming Guys — thanks to their team for partnering with us and providing the soundproof podcast pod and pro recording setup
