Biz Buddies Podcast #1 – We ARE Here To Make Friends

This inaugural episode of Biz Buddies Podcast is a quick introduction to why we wanted to do the podcast. Being an online entrepreneur or freelancer can be lonely. Jen Turrell and Niamh Arthur have been Biz Buddies for a year and a half, scheduling weekly calls not to instruct, coach, or formally do anything for each other, but by being genuine friends they have helped and done more for each other than coaches or employees often can. In this episode, they set their intention to pull aside the curtain and let the world in on the behind the scenes of their own online businesses, the good, the bad, the ugly and the awesome. Here they will chat, plot, plan, rant, rave and sometimes ugly cry about the ups and downs of online entrepreneurship.

Episode #110 — Travel and Learn with Alyson Kilday

Do you love the idea of educational travel, but resist plonking down the money to actually book one of those awesome sounding trips your college sponsors for alumni or that you see advertised for groups? I do too. I love the idea of traveling somewhere cool, drinking fine wines and learning about something that interests me, but I always feel like if it is just for recreation, I should spend that money on a trip that includes my kids, and if it is for my own edification, then I should invest in a conference or something that will move me forward in my career or help me add income to my finances. Which is exactly why I am so excited to introduce you to Alyson Kilday and her company Damesly. Alyson combines the best of these two worlds by offering career focused learning opportunities for women in fantastic locations around the country and around the world.

Alyson says of herself and her partner Kelly, “We believe that investing in yourself returns exponential dividends and that for women especially, connecting with peers and mentors is more important than ever. We’re not your typical “tour” company, we bring together workshops and learning opportunities from amazing women in the field with people who share a similar passion or interest. We just happen to do it in epic locations, because what better way to form lasting friendships and connections than by sharing an adventure together?”

Episode #108 – Musings of an Earth Angel with Suzanne Adams

 

What would happen if you turned off the world and looked inward? Today on Financial Fluency, my guest is best-selling author Suzanne Adams. Suzanne is a speaker, life purpose consult, and the author of Musings of an Earth Angel. On the show, Suzanne speaks about learning to love yourself, how to flip negativity into positivity, and how to connect with a greater power.

Early on, Suzanne lived the life she thought she was supposed to live. She called this “surface-level happiness” on the show. Suzanne said it was like putting on a front pretending to be happy. She didn’t understand true fulfillment, and it felt like she was going through the motions.

This way of life got to a point where she felt a pit in her stomach and was constantly saying there has to be more. Suzanne shared that during this time, she was chasing fulfillment through her career, shopping, and other’s opinions. Suzanne realized she couldn’t pretend everything was ok anymore. She didn’t want to numb the pain anymore.

That tumultuous period forced Suzanne to take inventory of the important things in her life. This mindset catapulted her to her mission. Suzanne allowed her body to heal and it brought her into alignment with her purpose. Suzanne says “My life purpose is to teach people how to reach their highest level of potential.”

Suzanne’s book, Musings of an Earth Angel, is about understanding divine communication and self-love. In a way, the book mirrors the struggles she faced when experiencing her spiritual awakening. Suzanne mentions the intention of her book is to awaken people to a higher meaning and deeper purpose with a story that’s relatable.

Self-Love Explained by Suzanne

  • The first step to self-love is to look at your thoughts and think about the things you tell yourself every single day. Everything is energy. If you think and treat yourself negatively, that’s what you’ll attract.
  • Have boundaries for yourself. Showering yourself with love is important. Allow yourself to have non-negotiable time.
  • Cherish and create sacred rituals that put you first. These rituals will fill you up from the inside out. The way you fill your well up affects everyone around you.

Suzanne Shares Her Personal Message Here

“I teach people how to live a life of fulfillment and happiness. My top tips are to always trust your heart, do what scares you, and find like-minded people that inspire you and surround yourself with them. My big why is to help to make the planet a happier place.”
