    RECAST: Champagne and Post-It Notes

    This week I have consciously chosen to recast one of my favourite and most popular episodes of 2022 all about Champagne and post-it notes. You’ve recently seen me launch the Champagne Lounge, which was born out of what I’ve been doing for the last decade around setting goals and celebrating my successes with post-it notes on bottles of champagne in the fridge.  The joy of my success and the reason I’m where I am now is that I put my goals in front of me every single day. Every time I open the fridge, I’m reminded of what I want to achieve. And when I smash those goals, I get to drink champagne in celebration! As business owners and entrepreneurs, we are so busy constantly striving for our goals, we forget that we need to give ourselves permission to stop and celebrate. In this episode, I share the ritual that reminds me to stop and smell the roses when I achieve one of my goals. Every year I buy at least six bottles of champagne, stick my goals written on post-it notes onto each bottle, store them in the fridge and pop one whenever I reach that goal!  My champagne of choice is Veuve Clicquot, and I share with you the history of this brand and why it gives me all the feels! My challenge to you is - how will you celebrate your successes? How will your goals and dreams be at the forefront of your mind so that you can make them a reality? From publishing books, gaining clients and hiring new staff to doubling profit and buying a country house, all of these amazing goals are absolutely achievable. So, stock up on some post-it notes and champagne bottles, and get ready to celebrate your success when those goals are smashed. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Are you asking for the help YOU need?

    Asking for help, for a lot of people, is one of the most difficult things we can do. The last few years have been challenging for us all, and for many business owners, the stress and pressure have taken their toll.  A lot of people are struggling right now so in today’s short and sweet episode, my encouragement to you all is to ask for help where you need it. You don’t have to struggle alone. There are people out there who will have your back, support you and encourage you through the tough times and celebrate the wins… all you need to do is ask.  If you’re stuck in your own head and keeping your challenges and thought processes to yourself, you’re missing out on a wide variety of ideas and ways of doing things that might help your situation.  We’re not meant to do life alone. There is a tribe out there just for you, which is exactly why I started The Champagne Lounge. Come join in and meet like minded people who are open to having those higher level conversations about life, business and everything in between. What area of your life or business are you struggling with right now?  I encourage you to be bold today and ask for the help that you need.  LINKS:   Get access to The Champagne Lounge Book a Power Hour Session Invite me to Speak   Connect with Rebecca:   Website: https://www.rebeccasaunders.com/ Instagram: @therebeccasaunders See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Rules were made to be broken with the unstoppable Em Gee

    In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Mrs Unstoppable herself, Em Gee. Em is a marketing and mindset coach for female entrepreneurs and bestselling author of her book Uncertain to Unstoppable. In her book, Em shares her life journey moving through uncertainty and trauma to becoming unstoppable. This transformation was made possible by letting go of what people thought of her, adopting forgiveness and embracing personal development.  Often we all have trouble finding ways to stand out and face roadblocks when trying to step out of our comfort zone so I’ve brought Em here to help!  Mrs. Unstoppable became an avatar of Em’s, a little superhero in a pink costume who embodies who she wants to be and allows her to show up at a certain level in her business. She encourages all of her Unstoppables to do the same and asks them three questions to get them to dive deeper into who they want to be:  What does that version of me believe? What does that version of me think? How would that version of me like to feel? By working through these three questions, Em helps her clients lean into the wobbles along the way and start showing up differently in their businesses.  In this episode Em talks about her own journey to becoming unstoppable, how to move through the valleys and peaks in business, setting boundaries and finding space, and the three biggest rules she has broken and the benefits that have resulted from them.  Em encourages all entrepreneurs who are worried about what people are going to think to think about these four questions:  What's the worst that can happen?  What can you do to prevent the worst from happening? What you can do if the worst happens?  What's the best that can happen? Tune in to hear all of Em’s unstoppable advice and experience to start breaking rules in your own business journey and become the version of you that you’ve always wanted.   LINKS:   Get access to The Champagne Lounge   Join Business Uncorked - Exclusive Mudgee Dinner Series   Book a Power Hour Session   Invite me to Speak   Connect with Em Gee: Website: https://www.bethinkdocoaching.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thereal_emgee/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bethinkdocoaching Book: https://www.amazon.com.au/Uncertain-Unstoppable-re-writing-yourself-possible/dp/0646852280   Connect with Rebecca: Website: https://www.rebeccasaunders.com/ Instagram: @therebeccasaunders See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Getting your voice heard with PR Expert Jaimie Abbott

    Even with access to the world at our fingertips, getting your voice heard as a business owner, a creative or an entrepreneur can be tough going. Algorithms don’t always work in our favour and are ads really worth it? If you’ve got a message that you want to get out there but you’re afraid of what people might think, worried about not being seen or just don’t know where to get started, I’ve got PR expert, Jaimie Abbott here to help. Jaimie is an award-winning media professional and international keynote speaker and has spent two decades in the industry working as a Radio and TV Journalist, Political Media Adviser, Managing Director of her own public speaking and media training company and a Communications Adviser for the Royal Australian Air Force. Needless to say, she has loads of experience when it comes to media, public speaking and presenting a message to the world.  In this conversation, Jaimie and I discuss some of the common areas people fall short when it comes to presenting, from speaking on a stage to Instagram lives. Jaimie talks about rehearsing, and how even the most experienced public speakers still do this. We talk about how to conquer your fears by being really solid on a few key points and why we shouldn’t ever be worried about putting the same message out there over and over again.  We’re all human, and we’re all going to make mistakes. But that can be part of the experience for whoever’s listening. We talk about embracing the human element and not giving air time to the negative comments that might come when you put yourself out there.

    Customer Service: VIP or RIP?

    I have a meaty one for you today as I dive into my view on the culture of customer service today. Quite frankly, in the majority of businesses that I have interactions with, customer service as far as I'm concerned, is dead. So I’m broaching the topic today to talk about what we as business owners and consumers can do to create the VIP experience and change the culture of customer service.  In recent years, I believe that we have all become extremely complacent with the way we are treated, particularly by big business. Yes, covid made an impact. But that’s no excuse to not smile at your customers when they walk in the door, respond in a timely manner to queries or ensure that customers are getting the services that they paid good money for. We can do better. You, your customers and your community deserve better. In this episode, without going on too much of a rant, I share a few examples of customer service experiences that I’ve had recently that have left me cancelling subscriptions left, right and centre.  For me and my business, the VIP experience is a huge focus. I am consciously putting measures in place to create the VIP experience for myself and my clients every single day. I also share some examples of businesses that are doing an incredible job at treating their customers with the genuine care and service they deserve. I talk about how we can begin looking at our own lives and businesses to stand out in our industries, all the way down to the micro decisions.  As small business owners, we want to create raving fans, not resentful customers. I hope this episode inspires you to ponder on the level of customer service that you’ve been accepting as the norm and where, as a business owner, you can start leveling up to create an incredible VIP experience for your customers.    LINKS:   Get access to The Champagne Lounge Join Business Uncorked - Exclusive Mudgee Dinner Series Book a Power Hour Session Invite me to Speak Connect with Rebecca:   Website: https://www.rebeccasaunders.com/ Instagram: @therebeccasaunders See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Community over competition

    I love community. I love bringing people together and seeing other business owners collaborate, connect and support each other. It’s what I’m all about, but I know that some people still struggle with the idea of competition. So today I’m talking about community over competition and why this mindset is an absolute superpower.    I live in a small rural town and the joy of the community feel is a truly wonderful thing. In this episode, I’m having a conversation around building community and how it’s become somewhat of a lost art. I talk about why we need to be intentional about looking outward and supporting each other, not driven by a fear of lack. There are always more than enough projects and money to go around!    When I first started my business, I said yes to everything. After a while, I realised that there were certain projects I didn’t want to do so I niched down to focus on what truly lights me up. Now, I am continually referring business to other people, never in fear that I’ll run out of projects. It’s this mindset of collaboration, connection and support that we as business owners need to have.    Ponder on how you are showing up in your community. How are you supporting others around you and building up a network of likeminded people? Do you promote other businesses and help them thrive? Or do you say yes to every project, fearing that clients may not come back to you?   Whatever industry you’re in, I know that when you hold a mindset of community over competition, good things will flow back to you tenfold. So today, think about how you can be more intentional about building community. When you do business this way, there is no end to the joy, connection and support you will attract.    LINKS: Get access to The Champagne Lounge Join Business Uncorked - Exclusive Mudgee Dinner Series Book a Power Hour Session Invite me to Speak Connect with Rebecca: Website: https://www.rebeccasaunders.com/ Instagram: @therebeccasaunders See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Bouncing back from discombobulation!

    Today's episode is for everyone who can get stuck feeling discombobulated and it then derails their entire day, week or year. Now, I absolutely love the word discombobulated. I try to work it into so many conversations because I just love the way it sounds but what does it mean? Discombobulated is when you’re a little bit confused, a little bit disconcerted, don’t know whether you're coming or going, and are generally feeling like a little bit of a mess.  Right now, I’m recording this in the midst of our renovation on our beautiful heritage listed house where I don’t currently have a dedicated workspace so I’m shifting around the space each day to get all of my work done. So I don’t have my amazing camera set up with my bright background or my professional podcast microphone or headphones and everything feels like a bit of a mess. It would be so easy to let it utterly derail me and not record content until everything has settled down and I’m perfectly organised again but I’m not going to let that happen.  It’s all about mindset and this year is all about doing everything with ease and grace. So I’m going to plan for the things I have control over and schedule everything when I have the space to do it. I try not to worry or stress about the things that I can’t do anything about.  There is always a way of working it around and take a moment to consider, “How can I solve it?” or rejigging your work week to fit around what’s throwing it out of whack.  I know we don’t have the time or energy to feel discombobulated in our lives or businesses so in this episode I’m sharing with you my strategy to refocus, restructure and get back on track to get everything done and find joy every day.    LINKS: Get access to The Champagne Lounge Join Business Uncorked - Exclusive Mudgee Dinner Series Book a Power Hour Session Invite me to Speak   Connect with Rebecca: Website: https://www.rebeccasaunders.com/ Instagram: @therebeccasaunders See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Learn to love yourself with body confidence coach J.Go

    Today I’m excited to dive into an amazing topic with an amazing guest - J.Go (Jordan Gomez), a Body Positive Life Coach who helps women lose weight, gain muscle and feel confident in their skin! J.Go takes us through her fitness background and how she quickly realised that the focus and pressure on always trying to get smaller and punishing yourself was not the way she wanted to approach exercise. There had to be another way. J.Go explains how a focus on getting stronger and what food made her feel good, helped break the connection between her self-worth and size. Gym-timidation is real. J.Go explains how walking into a gym can often feel like a big step out of people’s comfort zone. She gives us some tips on how to start out on a fitness journey, and how to give yourself some grace on the journey. J.Go doesn’t just do exercise, she helps with food as well. How to eat your ice cream with no side of guilt. She explains how to navigate food when approaches to cooking and mindset are so entrenched in our upbringing. J.Go helps her clients break up with the ‘shoulds’. She takes them through an audit of how they speak around their bodies to release the guilt around food. We discuss the difference between saying ‘should’ and ‘could’ and how a shift in language can be really powerful. She helps her clients learn the power of words and the power of mindset.  Conversations with ourselves are hugely important. J.Go gives us some habits and rituals that will help on your journey towards confidence and feeling happy in your own skin. I know you’re going to love J.Go’s focus on self-love and body positivity as the ideal way to create long-term lifestyle change!   LINKS:   Get access to The Champagne Lounge   Join Business Uncorked - Exclusive Mudgee Dinner Series   Book a Power Hour Session   Invite me to Speak Connect with J.Go:   Website: https://www.jgofitlife.com/about Podcast: Confidently Uncomfortable with J.Go   Connect with Rebecca:   Website: https://www.rebeccasaunders.com/ Instagram: @therebeccasaunders See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
