      <title>S7 EP 9 Series Wrap Up</title>

      <description>The Big Lessons And The Secret Sauce

It’s here the season wrap-up, your fast guide to burst your next opportunity wide open and become the person you most want to be. 

In this episode...
We will explore the big lessons that have come from this series on how to have fun at work and the secret sauce to become the person you most want to be. 

On a personal note...
I was inspired to do this series when I was feeling stuck. Last summer, I was trying to decide on the theme and for some reason I was struggling to focus and get to work. Luckily, I was invited to a great values workshop run by Carola Baratella at Freelance Camp Italia in the beautiful Ravenna beach resort in northern Italy.  

You may have already guessed that the biggest value that came up for me was FUN. 

It was like a lightning bolt for my motivation.  
All I had to do was focus on FUN in this series and make this not another thing I had to do but something I get to do.

But that didn’t stop me doubting myself. As I was writing questions, I'd start to think...

 “What am I doing?

 Am I really going to ask people about their darkest moments? 

Their most embarrassing times at work, and even what their animal battle companion would be?” 

I recognised for every fear that came up, that I was holding myself back with false beliefs of what I thought a business podcast should be. Instead by allowing myself to pivot and grow, I got to discover what my podcast could be. 
I’m glad to say, I’ve had more fun, engagement, positive feedback and opportunities open up than from any other series.

Discover Mental Fitness
Each month, I train myself and my clients to build mental fitness' using the Positive Intelligence framework. 
The PQ program’s tools continually build and strengthen a Growth Mindset. 
Strengthening your growth mindset, allows you to take bigger risks so that you continue to learn, grow and win the moments that matter. 
If you’d like to learn more about Positive Intelligence and what building mental fitness can do for you, check out S5 EP5 We Are Value Centric. 

Ready to become the person you most want to be this year? 
Then jump in and join the Waitlist for Vincita’s Mental Fitness Program for Leaders. 
Details will be announced to everyone on this list in May ready for a new start date in early June 2024.  

I hope you enjoy this episode and you dig deeper into the inspiring stories within this series. 
Finally, a special thanks to all my GENIUS guests, my series sponsor Magic Mind and to you for listening. 
To your success!
Caroline

      <title>S7 EP8: David Allison - How to make fast friends you value</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/podcast</link>
      <description>Ever feel like it’s hard to find and make deep and valuable connections? 
What would happen if you stopped playing it safe, and started to boldly share your feelings, ideas and dreams? 
In today’s episode of Snippets of Genius, David Allison, a human values expert, global researcher, and two-time best-selling author comes on the show to share our story of becoming fast friends, his big life lessons and the heart breaking moments that have shaped what he values most. 
Tune in and you’ll learn 

The fastest way to make strong connections

The 2 questions you need to ask yourself to know if you’re doing the right thing in your career and business right now.

What to focus on when making significant changes.

The best way to build connections, and embrace opportunities that align with personal fulfilment. 

How to re-frame “no” to be your second best answer for anything.


This episode is packed full of humour, vulnerability and deep reflection. It is my hope that you also take away the insights to embrace your own authenticity and individuality and be unapologetically true to who you are, just like David.
Keep listening to the end where David reveals his humorous playful side. Possibly, my favourite answer of the show so far to the question: ‘what’s the creepiest thing you could say to someone you just met?’
Now it’s your turn. Let’s look closer at the “what can make time stand still for you”.
For example, mine is ‘Speaking’. I get a huge burst of energy when I know I am about to walk on stage. I can move myself into the biggest version of myself and I love being that version. What about you?
Which of these do you catch yourself losing track of time with most? 
Speaking 
Writing 
Designing 
Creating 
Drawing 
Reading 
Networking 
Hosting 
Organising 
Mentoring 
Coaching 
Teaching 
Write 1–2 sentences about why you lose track of time. Now ask yourself: would you do this until you were a 103? Does it feel like something you can turn into the biggest part of your day? What is holding you back? 
What’s something you could do (or stop doing) to have more fun at work?
Share your thoughts and questions with me at hello@carolinekay.co and take the first step to “becoming” the person you most want to be.
To your success

      <title>S7 EP7: Chris Lund - How to embrace your insatiable curiosity and make it your superpower</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/podcast/</link>
      <description>Creatively curious people have a deep desire to explore and follow a path until the very end. When in actual fact killing a dream, a project, an idea, is in fact, the very thing that will help you get to the next level of your success. 

In this episode, you’ll learn the critical importance of know when to: 

Let go. 
Bet big on yourself (even take a 97% pay cut) and not do what’s expected of you
Recognise when you’re on to something versus when you’re not. 
Find the strength in your creative muscles to unlock your biggest potential. 
Dance harder on the fine line between what’s acceptable and not and have more fun!  


As you’ll hear on today’s episodes of The Snippets of Genius Podcast, it’s his insatiable curiosity that has allowed Chris Lund to evolve into a the youngest ever CMO of banking in the US, an award wining creative agency owner, and now a brand builder within an agile innovation hub with a license to kill.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your curiosity really matters, or worse assumed this was some kind of procrastination, listen to this episode now! 

The stories and wisdom that Chris shares from his 35+ years in high performing roles will show you how to lean into your curiosity and love of story telling to become the person you most want to be.

You’ll also learn: 

Why being small gives you a competitive edge
How to flip a category on its head 
What’s needed to accelerate an idea down the brand superhighway and secure 2.5M customer in 14months. 
How to create a new market and opportunity
Why you’re unlikely to change people’s habits and rituals and where to focus instead
Why Yoga at work can be a bad idea
The best way to have fun at a funeral and when not too.
How to deal with frightening stalkers and body crushing Pythons!

Once you’ve had a chance to listen, Chris and I would love to hear from you. 

1. What’s the biggest insight you’re taking away?
2. What’s something you could do today that would bring you one step closer to embracing your curiosity?  


It’s my hope you take these lessons and insights to heart and most of all stay curious. 

To your success!

      <title>S7 EP6: Izzy Francke – How To Forge Your Own Path Having Fun</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/podcast</link>
      <description>Have you ever NOT asked a question in a meeting as you don’t want to come across as stupid?
 
Do you sometimes bite your tongue because you don’t want to come across as entitled or needy?
 
My hand is raised.
 
Looking back, I can see how much I devalued my talent and expertise due to FEAR of not fitting in or worse not being valued.
 
The consequences of stepping out of the bounds of what is considered acceptable within different groups can hit your confidence hard.
 
Today, I’m talking to Trainee Counselling Psychologist, Stand up Comic and Media Entertainment specialist, Izzy Francke.
 
Not only have I have proudly worked with Izzy to navigate a serious case of culture shock, in this episode she shares her big cringe, dark and hugely embarrassing moments on both sides of the camera.
Izzy’s story is one of leaning into her curiosity and her gifts to express herself creatively again, and again. Going viral on YouTube (12M views and counting), testing boundaries, facing fears head on and accepting the faux pars. 

It's only through experimentation you will find your tribe and your ability to truly sparkle.
 
Take it from Izzy: “you gotta find the fun in the now”

In this empowering conversation we invite you to reflect on and explore
 

What is considered too much or too far in your environment?

How to use failure as fuel to build wisdom and sparkle brightly

Why you need to stop trying to fit in and play to your strengths.

Why taking care of yourself will give you fierce focus to do your best work.

 
As you will hear from Izzy, forging your own path was and is still not easy. The feelings of isolation, loneliness and being seen as different are sadly still an everyday fact of life. However, we can all help to make the world a kinder, more equitable place. Let’s support one another with compassion — yes, when we succeed, but especially when we fail.
 
You will hear stories on this podcast that shock and amaze. To emphasise this, I have listed some of the topics below, which I urge you to consider before listening.
 
What are your beliefs and boundaries?
What is socially and culturally acceptable for you?

Let’s begin:
 

First date conversation around your vibrator?

Hunting someone down and publicly shaming them for having a pooh

Asking noisy people to leave a theatre versus laughing in a theatre and being asked to leave

Protrusive nipples

Hairy legs

Taking an afternoon nap in the office on a Monday.

Yelling at your wardrobe

Taking to yourself and sometimes having a full blown fight with yourself.

  
Now Izzy and I would love to hear from you. Which part of our conversation resonated most with you and why?
 
What can you do to reclaim your sparkle right now?

      <title>S7 EP5: Danny Matthews - How to avoid founder burnout</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/podcast</link>
      <description>Are you passionate about solving big problems but wondering how you can? 
Then this episode is for you.
Just imagine waking up one day and securing 3.5 Billion in funding.
Then imagine the weight of that responsibility.
Let that sink in for a minute.
Because, as you’re about to learn, moving too fast and too intensely can change your life in ways you may not be lucky enough to walk away from.
My GENIUS guest, Danny Matthews, Founder of Short Story Ventures and director at Founder institute London, shares the year of stress both personal and work related that led up to his burnout; leaving him temporarily paralysed and even caused him to lose his speech.
His story of finding his passions and the importance of perspective when it comes to money, connection and the confidence to LET GO.

Let go of expectations
Let go of the data
Let go of the logic.
Let go of everything BUT the FUN.

Danny is living proof, that when you let go and lean into your passions you can come back stronger than ever.
Tune in a learn

– Why focusing on what you love to do will save you from burnout

– How Danny had no formal qualifications and still found a way to thrive

– The truth about ‘being unemployable’ and ‘knowing what you want’.

– The best way to build up credibility and awareness to make that impact you want to make

– How the power of your passion is far greater than cash or connections

      <title>S7 EP4: Maisie Nicholls - How To Bring Yourself Back To The Joy</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/podcast</link>
      <description>This is a wonderful conversation about how you can learn what is invisibly holding you back from becoming all you can be.
And even, righting the wrongs of your past.
Interested? I am. 
So I asked, Maisie Nicholls - an EMDR Therapist - to tell us everything she knows about trauma, big and small, and the practices that can truly support you to step into your light. 
Ever wondered what it would be like to tell your bad boss what you REALLY think of them? Then listen in, for a story that had my eyes out on stalks!!
Perhaps, (like me and 1000’s of other content creators, business owners, entrepreneurs and leaders out there) you are starting to hate Instagram? Maisie explains why you might feel this way and how she ditched it then went viral on TikTok… 
Even better, these ballsy moves and breakthroughs are not reserved for people who have coaches, psychologist or therapists (although having one sure does make the journey a heck of a lot easier). Today you will discover the simple practices anyone can make to feel dramatically different, less stressed more confident to make the most of the big opportunities life has to offer you.  
And that’s not all..
I highly recommend making time to listen all the way through to understand:

The #1 thing anyone can do to build joy into every day starting now.

The 3 ingredients to have fun at work

The spectrum of trauma and the triggers 

What feeder memories are and how they stop you in your tracks 

Why “The glimmer moment” is about to change your life.  

How calm, joy, happiness, fun, and relaxation can be had everyday and is a fundamental part of therapy and your route to success. 

Trypophobia (trip-uh-FOE-bee-uh) a phobia not many people know about and how to know if you suffer.


This conversation is jam packed with practical tips you need to know to feel amazing for as long as possible. 
So tune in and learn the techniques to take care of yourself, you deserve it.

      <title>S7 EP2: Simona Barbieri: How to Redefine Networking with Fun and Energy.</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/2024/02/22/simona-barbieri-redefine-networking/</link>
      <description>In 2019, I was touched by alchemy. Riding a train from London to York. Sharing a challenge with strangers was when I first learned about the energising, uplifting, international community of HubDot; and the Italian born force of nature that is Simona Barbieri. 
Little did I know that this connection would soon become an important part of my journey in entrepreneurship. 
Simona Barbieri, Founder of HubDot, and I met in London and immediately, I knew I’d found both a special concept and a kindred spirit. 
As I learned about her own journey from Naples to London and her passion about the transformative power of networking. And, her relentless work ethic to create a global movement and change lives. It was clear we had magic to create through the power of storytelling.
In this episode you’ll learn: 

How she turned her childhood dreams and scars into an empowering part of who she is

Why the negative feedback from a recruiter fuelled her to write 240 letters and the life changing moment she encountered. 

The value of YOUR own story to inspire and mobilise teams

How she wisely sees labels, job titles and differences as something we need to breakthrough to create a belonging in any space or place. 

Why she refuses to be labelled or put in a box and how important it is to be human!


Simona is a talent, creating transformations from the stage through stories and songs. I think you’ll really appreciate her invitation to honour who you are and give yourself permission to be the person you most want to be. 
While Simona is a jazz musician, a mum, an entrepreneur, and a proud Neapolitan, the conversation about rejection, perseverance and owning your story are relevant no matter what walk of life, country or industry you’re from. 
And, if you love hearing stories and connecting with passionate individuals as much as I do; join one of HubDots Free Online Piazza’s the last Tuesday of every month. 
To your success!

      <title>S7 EP 1: Have fun at work with Filippo Spreafico: Provoke, jolt, and keep it fresh.</title>
      <link>https://carolinekay.co/podcast/</link>
      <description>Have you ever felt so angry with a client or customer you wanted to say something, but you bit your tongue? 
Do you sometimes see things that make you re-evaluate your place in the world but you do nothing?
We are sometimes unaware how much we make ourselves small. Devalue our power and gifts doing what we think we should rather than what we want to do. 
Having what it takes to step into the light and become the superstar you were born to be doesn’t require you push yourself to the limits. It requires you to follow the fun. 
Today, I’m talking with Filippo Spreafico. Someone who is regularly under the spotlight on the comedy circuit across Europe. He appears on the biggest TV shows and Comedy Festivals out there, plus he’s a personal fave of mine. 
In this episode, Filippo shares how he forged his own path by overcoming the fear of judgements, projections and the voices in his head by delighting in the forbidden. From managing emotions and outbursts to keeping perspective. 
This is a masterclass on the mindset work and communication you need to find the way to express that thing that you have in you, which you know belongs to other people. 
Join us for this empowering conversation and learn: 

How to be an artist, channel your vision and stay grounded. 

What you’ll need to prepare for to chase down your dream

Why separating your public and personal life is essential 

Why it’s critical to get a hold of yourself and your emotions. 

Social sharing: The fine line between private, personal and being pointless. 

How to make the distinction between the real you and what you do


Now, I’d love to hear from you!
What’s the single biggest insight you’re taking away from this conversation, and why?
Come on over to the LinkedIn Snippets of Genius Fan Page and share as much detail as possible in your reply. 
What you have to say may just be what someone else needs to have a major breakthrough.
Thank you for listening. 
P.S. If you found this valuable, inspiring and worthy of your time, please share it. I can’t think of any better conversation for creative performers around the world to listen to.
To your success!

      <link>https://www.carolinekayco/podcast</link>
      <description>Do you ever feel disappointed or disillusioned with work?
You’re ambitious and have the energy and aptitude to make anything happen. But, sometimes you still question.. Am I in the right place to do it?
You want to make a positive difference to the world and do work that you actually care about! That’s why I’m beyond excited to introduce you to today’s guest, Natalie Pearce.
Natalie is a GENIUS at designing and creating kinder, fairer, better designed employee experiences for every stage of company growth so that you can finally feel you’re in the right place. Building better teams and a culture that supports making your dreams happen.
Natalie spent her career putting people first, from developing end-to-end employee experiences to crafting growth-proof team cultures. She’s led projects for Insights, Amnesty International, BP, MasterCard, DVSA, Fidelity, HSBC, ITV and Pizza Hut.
In today’s Snippets of Genius, we go deep on:

How to get your team’s spark back for the company you’re building

Why rituals design are critical to effective communication

What even are cultural norms?

How to get intentional so that you live and breathe your values and purpose

Why Patagonia are pioneering when it comes to unlocking the power of values

How to articulate your best company story

What gets in the way of living your best culture and how to solve it


You’ll also hear how Natalie got alignment with her co-founder, plus an encounter with burnout that helped her stop hustling and start doing less but better.
If you want to be part of a thriving culture, have a fulfilling business or career - and make a positive difference to the world - watch this episode on YouTube or listen now.

      <title>S6 EP4: I don’t dance now, I make money moves with Ian Truscott</title>
      <link>https://www.carolinekayco/podcast</link>
      <description>Ever wondered what it really takes to rise up through the ranks and master your craft?
To realise your full potential and lead others to do the same?
Ian Truscott, popularly known as the RockstarCMO, is on Snippets of Genius today to share the people strategies that’ll will enable you to achieve your career aspirations!
Ian had his career wake-up call while listening to a colleague talk with such swagger, passion and confidence; it inspired him to figure out how to become the very best marketeer. From that day, Ian knew what he needed to do, “to be a constant learner and get on top of everything”
He had to find a way to master his craft. And he did. More importantly, YOU can too.
Ian used what he learned about marketing and invested wisely in the people around him. His personalised approach to team development has effectively led global teams to overachieve against all KPIs and double metrics year-on-year. Three years later, he is the CMO of Spotler Group, a trusted advisor for two growing marketing technology companies and the founder of a strategic market advisory that creates ART (Awareness, Revenue and Trust). Today he’s sharing his secrets with you.
In this episode, you’ll learn:

What you need to explore and have and know the answers to, to master your craft

The tech and process for managing remote teams (and making other big life goals happen).

Why you must have trust AND empathy with your team to grow at pace.

The “one size fits all” trap that’ll crush your teams’ potential, if you let it.

How to stay one step ahead of Chat GTP with category defining marketing best practice.

The books everyone must read to build the habits and strategies that will change your life.

Why ‘the work’ is not the main thing and where you need ‘to focus’ when running your own business. 


Watch now and let the RockstarCMO drown out your excuses and show you exactly how to set yourself up — for life — no matter what your ambition.
Now it’s your turn.
All the people strategies in the world are useless until YOU put them to use!
So get this career insight into action ASAP. And have fun with it! Because as Ian reminds us:
“Our relationship with work is becoming increasingly personal, you need to engage with your employees becauseone size doesn’t fit all”

      <title>S6 EP3: Banish Conformity with William Arruda</title>
      <link>https://www.carolinekayco/podcast</link>
      <description>A Personal Branding Masterclass: How To Shine Online
If any part of you wants to show up in a magnetising and mesmerising way online then this is a must listen!
It’s a treasure map to unleash your strongest, most brilliant, most self aware YOU! And our guide is non other than William Arruda, the man who has been named a Global Guru and the World's #1 Branding Expert in 2022 and 2023. He’s a bestselling author of Digital YOU, Career Distinction, and Ditch. Dare. Do! William has turned the concept of personal branding into a global industry and now he’s here to share his biggest lessons and tips with you.
Here’s just a sampling of the gems you’re about to discover:

The 2 most important steps to successful personal branding

How you can make your brand shine online

The 1 thing you need to pay attention to when you build your personal brand

What personal branding is not and why 'how' someone introduces you is key!

Plus, how to know whether or not you’re building the personal brand you want right now


If you have ever had the pleasure of seeing William speak or read one of his Forbes Articles (17 million views and counting) pay extra attention around the 17-minute mark.
Because, William was generous enough to give the 2 very key pieces of advice that will quite literally change the game on how you show up and stand out online.
As William says “We get by in the world on our own while we excel in the world with others”
We’re all capable of achieving much higher things. We all have incredible strengths to share. My hope is that today’s show fuels you to take (or continue on) your journey to becoming all you can be.
Now, William and I would love to hear from you. What’s the single biggest insight you’re taking away from this rich conversation, and why? Yes, more than one insight is allowed – but I’m truly curious as to what hit home for you the most.
Email me at hello@carolinekay.co or come on over to the community on LinkedIn to inspire other listeners and share your insights.
What you have to say may just be what someone else needs to have a major breakthrough.
Thank you so very much for listening, commenting and sharing.

P.S. If you found this valuable, inspiring and worthy of your time, please share it. I can’t think of any better conversation for current and future leaders around the world to listen to. Huge thanks!

How to get a competitive advantage for your business

What you need to do to have consistent green quarters

Why embracing autonomy and individual Workstyles will boost wellbeing and results

Their 2 big lessons in building a business

Why wordmoji’s are the next thing we can all geek out on.

The environment needed to get people to deliver their best work.

What it means to lead from the centre.

      <description>So you want to be your own boss, build a business and be successful. Chances are you have more ideas than you can shake a stick at but NOT the experience to build a business that is sustainable and profitable.

Luckily, I brought Liana Fricker, fondly known as the "Inspirer-In-Chief" of Inspiration Space. A community of mentors and guides to founders of the future to go beyond what they think is possible. 

In order to do that, Liana had to dive in, figure out her superpowers and go on a wild ride of her own. Fast forward to today, Liana is more than just an ally for Founders. She is an indispensable figure for business growth and the creation of a brighter, more sustainable future that we all strive for. 

In this premier episode of the Snippets of Genius Build Better Series, Liana shares the 5 key stages of entrepreneurship. The best technology to supercharge a company of one. And the secrets to stop wasting time and money and start creating sustainable lasting impact.

Liana Says,  “building better is about that balance between where you are now and where you want to be and cultivating like a farmer”.

This means patience, consistency and sustainability. And that’s exactly what we dig into in this episode. Prepare to go out there and win any battle you choose whatever size you are at.

Tune in and learn: 

The Key Stages Of Entrepreneurship

Why You Will Continually Re-Imagining Your Business

Your Expectations Versus Reality In Business Building

      <itunes:subtitle>The Journey of Entrepreneurship: Nurturing a Healthy Business and Contributing to a Sustainable World</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>So you want to be your own boss, build a business and be successful. Chances are you have more ideas than you can shake a stick at but NOT the experience to build a business that is sustainable and profitable.

Luckily, I brought Liana Fricker, fondly known as the "Inspirer-In-Chief" of Inspiration Space. A community of mentors and guides to founders of the future to go beyond what they think is possible. 

In order to do that, Liana had to dive in, figure out her superpowers and go on a wild ride of her own. Fast forward to today, Liana is more than just an ally for Founders. She is an indispensable figure for business growth and the creation of a brighter, more sustainable future that we all strive for. 

In this premier episode of the Snippets of Genius Build Better Series, Liana shares the 5 key stages of entrepreneurship. The best technology to supercharge a company of one. And the secrets to stop wasting time and money and start creating sustainable lasting impact.

Liana Says,  “building better is about that balance between where you are now and where you want to be and cultivating like a farmer”.

This means patience, consistency and sustainability. And that’s exactly what we dig into in this episode. Prepare to go out there and win any battle you choose whatever size you are at.

      <title>S5 EP8: We Are Value Centric</title>
      <link>https://www.carolinekayco/podcast</link>
      <description>In today’s solo show, I introduce you to an inspiring chap: Shirzad Chamine, who transformed my broken relationships so much, I had to jump in and bare all.

Shirzad Chamine is the author of Positive Intelligence. Lecturer at Stamford University, the trainer and coach to most managers within Fortune 500 companies. Today I share an introduction to his extraordinary tools, which created a positive change in my darkest moments. His book Positive Intelligence, which I highly advocate you read, is the first step to understanding how you identify your self-sabotaging behaviour and create a path toward sustainable, positive change.

If you want to achieve your fullest potential and become one of the elite this is a short introduction into how you can convert any challenge into an opportunity and bounce back positively:

Tune in and learn:
- The big shift I’ve seen in how employees feel about work
- What gets in the way of us performing at our best
- Finding the gift in life’s biggest challenges
- The saboteurs that live in all of us, and the biggest one, you have.
- The 5 powers to help you move forward positively.
- Peak success + Peak performance = Happiness

As promised in the show, here is a link to understand how much you mind is serving versus sabotaging you right now.
PQ base line assessment: https://assessment.positiveintelligence.com/pq/overview
I invite you to contact me at hello@carolinekay.co, if you’d like to to go deeper into this work and become the person you most want to be.

      <title>S5 EP3: The German And The Brazilian with Federico Grom</title>
      <link>https://www.carolinekayco/podcast</link>
      <description>Today's show gives the inside scoop behind GROM, the multi-million company, the TV spots and world coverage!
Federico Grom shares how he and co-founder Giulio built up a company that re-imagined an industry dating back thousands of years. How they burst open 67 stores around the world with queues around the block and over 1,000 employees before capturing the interest of Unilever, to become a multi-million company. 
Plus the high’s and the incredible lows faced and overcome by Federico and Giulio, who took a giant leap of faith to build their own modern Italian Gelato experience.
We dig into the big lessons, rock solid support, and unwavering attitude required to go fully global and create success.

Tune in and learn how to:


Start: Investing every penny, re-imagining a mature market and learning how to be a retailer


Launch: Radical innovation in Turin


WOW: Quality over quantity – the Investment that got ALL the New Yorkers talking and queuing for over 2 hours!


Survive: Overcoming environmental disasters, near death experiences and finding the strength to do everything alone.


Build: a business that made Unilever come knocking – only to send them away the first time.


Find out what it took for the multi-national to get a yes from Guilio and Federico and a double helping more:

Why ignorance can spark your Genius

How to create an experience everyone wants to be part of

The most interesting ROI in communication ever

Following the opportunities with nose, feeling and opportunity.

The secret to the GROM success: Fantasy and Rigour, Emotion and Mathematics.

Big brand lessons when you shift from an entrepreneur to a multinational company


All this plus this productivity tweetable is worth it’s weight in gold:
“If you can’t solve a problem you can’t sell it, so forget it”.Federico Grom

      <title>S5 EP2: Six Vice President And A Box Of Donuts With David Allison </title>
      <link>https://www.carolinekayco/podcast</link>
      <description>If I told you there was one thing you could do that would skyrocket the purpose and profits of your business….
Would you do it?
David Allison – Human Values Expert, Global Researcher, and Founder of the Valuegraphics Project – is here to show us what that is. The rest is up to you.
Listen to our conversation to learn:

How to sell with more effectiveness in any market

Where you can find the common ground that will motivate, your customers, team and stakeholders

Why our values drive us subconsciously to make choices

Why frustrations and failures are the breeding ground for your next GENIUS ideas

When demographics matter and when they don’t

How to create a great workplace culture

What not to do when defining your company values.

The secret to attract and keep great talent -HINT: it is not pay them more!

How to overcome the slog and motivate your team to perform at their best.


In today’s Snippet of Genius David reminds us that nothing good comes from reinforcing our differences. If we want to move forward and get better we need to find the common ground.
He confesses that normally he gets paid the big bucks by doing big research projects for big companies.
Luckily for us, in his newest book: The Death of Demographics, David’s leveling the playing field.
He’s giving you access to his tools that will allow you to connect with people, deep inside their hearts like a trusted friend, and create value driven solutions that will resonate deeply.
Stay tuned to the end to learn how and in the comments below, let us know:
What insights from the conversation meant the most to you and why?

Thanks for tuning in and if you have a friend, client or colleague who could use this knowledge right now, please share this episode.

      <title>S5 EP1: Hearts In Mouths: Marketing, Menopause and Men with Jo McEwan</title>
      <link>https://www.carolinekay.co</link>
      <description>The confusion and misunderstanding of the Menopause creates a huge negative impact and it cannot go on. Over half the population suffer from this. 1 in 4 have a challenging time. 2 in 4 have symptoms of varying degrees. 1 in 4 are the sailors and are absolutely fine. That being said, internally hearts, bones, minds... everything is effected. There is no extensive training for Doctors. It’s misdiagnosed and it can lead to some very negative experiences from leaving great jobs to suicidal thoughts. That’s why I am so thrilled to bring on the premier episode of series 5 my genius guest, Jo McEwan from Positive Pause, to talk about the positive effects of Menopause and bust some myths along the way.
Headphones are recommended if you have little-ones close by, as nothing is off the table in this show. Prepare to hear us talking about experiences in Richmond Theatre to Arsenal Football Club. Live recordings on masturbation, rampant sex drives, self care routines and well-being at work!
Tune in and learn:

What are the positive effects of menopause.

What to expect in yourself, your partner, or loved ones when Menopause arrives and when it can happen.

3 of the most interesting positive effects of Menopause and why it's really not all doom and gloom.

One of the best places to invest in your marketing to bring in inbound inquiries

How a personal revelation can turn into a trending business.


The high and low’s are all covered in Jo’s amazing journey to become the co-founder of Positive Pause with her partner Ann Stephens.
Fast forward to today, 1 in 10 companies are now focusing on creating the right tools and knowledge to create real change in the work place. Jo and Ann are curating the menu of options to help women of all levels in the workplace continue to be successful at work.
For a serious dose of inspiration, on what it takes to turn small acorns in a great business, this is not one to miss.
Finally, my ask to you. As menopause will happen to every woman in your life, please share this episode. It's so important to let the women in your life of any age know that it's not all doom and gloom and that there is support when they need it.

      <title>S4 Ep9: The Anatomy of Action: A handy action set for everyday purposeful living</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8089912</link>
      <description>Today we are going to talk about the anatomy of ACTION 

The reason I do a podcast is I get to dig into the things that matter to my clients. So naturally, the topic of taking ACTION is something I knew I would get into eventually.

One of my favourite parts of my job is helping my clients to stay motivated, focused and to get our of their own way.

The truth is most people give up being an entrepreneur. It can be hard and frustrating not having a rule book, a framework, or (for those without a coach) a guide. 

That’s why creating positive habits is key to set yourself up for success. Join me as I unpack the 4 DRIVERS that will help you stay on track when building a business and life you desire. 

Have your pen and paper ready as inside this episode I share the tools and exercises to help you figure out what brings you to life. You'll hear the techniques that reveal where to focus your efforts to deliver real results, build momentum and grow. 

Tune in and learn 
- The 4 DRIVERS behind taking action 
- Why getting honest with yourself will reveal the secrets to your future success
- How to figure out where to focus your energy
- 3 things to avoid that will destroy your confidence
- How to get some wins and start building momentum 

What's more, my wonderful guests from this series (and a special cameo from Chloe Markham) all share a snippet that drives each point home. If you like their style and energy be sure to listen to their amazing stories in their show. You'll hear the pitfalls, lessons, and revelations, to help you build a business you love. 

If you have any questions about today's show or would like some help with any of the tools and techniques I share, please get in touch at hello@carolinekay.co. I'd be happy to have a chat and share more great resources to support you on your journey.

To your success! 
Caroline

      <title>S4 Ep8: Why Great Entrepreneurs Pick The Blindingly Obvious And Go For It: With Ben Collins</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8086191</link>
      <description>Ever thought you’re not “techie” enough to start a SaaS start up? Think again. Creative marketeer, Ben Collins goes to show that when you pick the blindingly obvious and lean into your strengths you can build anything you put your mind to.



You’ll have no doubt heard it said that entrepreneurship isn’t easy but the reality of what you will inevitably encounter seems to be a well kept secret.



Well friends, this week you’re going to get the real deal. The real, raw and the blindingly obvious.



In this week’s episode, Ben Collins returns. (See Episode 1 Series 1 for Ben’s debut on the show where he shares the big moves he made to start his first company Devilishly Handsome Productions). Now 3 years on he’s back to share his experience co-founding and building his tech startup 'Thingdom' during the pandemic. 



We cover




Realising the opportunity and later securing big client’s like Dreamwork’s 

Developing the MVP and building a success story and relevant results 

Gaining a government grant (and becoming their golden child)

The challenges of servicing while building, like sleepless nights and the wake up calls you don’t expect

Pivoting the tech from service focused to a SaaS Product

Getting future ready – building for the Metaverse and beyond.


I had the pleasure of being in the back seat for his incredible journey during the pandemic. While many of us reeled in shock to the changing world around us, Ben saw opportunities, and in true Ben fashion he ‘went for it!!’ That’s why I’m thrilled to share his genius to help you create any business, anytime, anywhere.



Listen to this episode and you’ll learn:




That you have everything you need to start when you apply your strengths

Why the blindingly obvious opportunity is your next business idea and how you can set up for success

The one thing you need to get started on the funding trail: beyond a good idea

Why getting it wrong will help you get it right when building any business

Want a dream client? Why learning on the job and sharing your vision, will bring you opportunities (most of us only dream about).


Stay tuned to the end for Ben’s top tips to maintain a long and healthy client list from his 15 years in business.



Ben’s journey goes to show that you can change your approach and even your offer, but never the goal; this is the secret to do great things and deliver great work.




Ben’s Top Resources




Daily inspiration and knowledge to level up in a blink

The book that turbocharged Ben’s productivity recommended by yours truly. 

The productivity tool Ben can’t be without. 

Get Ben’s latest Headphones (They are fancy!)

The music track for the more mature entrepreneurs to get you in flow 

The best track to feed your soul and set you up for the day. 


To connect with Ben and ask questions, come and join him and all my genius guests from this series over in our Snippets of Genius LinkedIn Community. 

Meanwhile, learn more about Ben's fast growing business Thingdom:
A metaverse for product activations, press launches &amp; unique brand experiences: https://www.truegroup.agency/thingdom 

Got an idea? I’d love to hear it. Why not drop me a line to see how you can build a business you love at pace.

      <title>S4 Ep7: How to fail without regret and carve out a strong future with Andres Korin</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8081963</link>
      <description>Many things need to go right for your business to succeed, that’s why even when your start- up fails, that doesn’t mean you do.



We’ve all read the horrific stats that 90% of start-ups fail, but what happens to those people who risked it all to become the CEO and Co-founder?



This week’s Genius Guest has over a decade of Finance expertise and openly shares his own start-up experience, from launch to close.

This is the entrepreneurial journey of Andres Korin, now Co-founder &amp; CFO at Debite, previously CEO and Co-founder of StorkCard and Start Up Consultant to Founders in tech.



After the first couple of years building the idea and concept and finding the 'Tech' to match his 'Fin', he had the tough call to leave his comfortable job and go all in. We dive into the hard decisions like this, that he wrestled with and learned from. Right up to the fateful day, one year later, when he made the announcement that the team and he had decided to close down the business.



We unpack the watch outs, the opportunities, and the enablers to carve out a strong future no matter what life throws at you, plus how to navigate




Finding co-founders

Securing funding and getting to the Final interview stages of Y-Combinator and Techstars.

Making the decision to close your startup in the right way.


Join us as Andres relives the pivotal moments that allowed him to learn and grow and use his expertise to create a positive impact in the world.



Tune in and learn:




How to have a conversation with the future you and get comfortable with risk

The reasons you need to forgive yourself – when you get it wrong

Why your applications and interviews for funding will help you in more ways than you think

What to expect if your going to a Y-Combinator interview and how Tech Stars differs

The most important things to focus on when winding down your start up to investors.

How to channel your energy in the most productive way to be a success

What you need to focus on when gearing up for Series – what you need to know (and importantly what you don’t)


You can do more than what your current job description defines, you have the opportunity to bring all your brilliance to the table and show up everyday in a big way. This is living. This is is how you become the person you were born to be.



Follow these simple practical steps to think bigger, act bigger and start living your way.



Need an extra boost of motivation? Ponders these words:



You tend to regret the things you don’t do, rather than the things you do”


What are you waiting for? Let’s go!

      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8073111</link>
      <description>Meet Franka Grubisic, who has one hell of a catalyst story, that brought out the entrepreneur within her.



In this extended episode we go back to the start of the global pandemic in March 2020. Where an Earthquake that magnified to 5.5. on the Richter scale, hit Zagreb in Croatia where Franka lives. 



Like many of us during the pandemic, Franka found comfort by exploring her creative side. You will hear how she started to follow her deepest desires and curiosity to reveal a great opportunity to her hidden entrepreneur. Learn how she made the switch from being a management consultant to become an entrepreneur leading other female creatives. 



In this episode, we discover more about her brilliant public funded new business concept Oaza. (Pronounced Oasis in English). A Croatian entrepreneurship incubator designed to rise up female creatives. Plus we unpack the catalysts and strategies to find the energy, team, and funds to build Franka’s idea into a business; in less than 3 days.



Tune in and learn




Why when you lean into your strengths, you can make anything happen fast.

How there are clues in everything you’ve done and do to help you discover your purpose

When you break down false beliefs and find your own truths, you can ignite the fire inside you

Why you’re more at risk of burnout in your own company and how to prevent this.

The truth about finding your success formula

2 hard truths about becoming a founder in the early days


Stay tuned to the end for Franka’s productivity hacks for all of you who have suspicions you may have a touch or even a full blown case of ADHD; prepare to refill your rocket-ships!

      <title>S4 Ep4: The knowledge you need to grow smarter with Norris Koppel </title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8070124</link>
      <description>Ever heard the analogy ‘A drop of water can break a stone'? 

The meaning behind this is to keep going no matter what… and I get it, heck I even champion it, but surely there is a smarter way? After all were are not going to live a million years. We want to make an impact in our lifetime.



That’s why I am delighted to bring you a CEO and founder of one of the fastest growing Fintech in the start up world today. Introducing Monese. The mobile money app which is for the rapidly scaling untraditional workforce.



With Norris at the wheel he’s found the smart ways to grow. Monese has raised around $90m in its latest funding push, taking its total raised to $162m in 8 short years.



In this episode we unpack the 3 things that have helped him scale: People, Perseverance and Prudence.



Tune in and discover how Norris started, kept going and how he is planning to push down the accelerator in 2022: 




What to look for to identify your A players who will 10X your business

How you can start from scratch and build up your network from one contact

Why as you grow, it will take longer for you to get a yes or no from investors

The moment you will question your own sanity and how to keep going

Why Hiring, Clarity and Communication are top of the agenda in 2022

      <title>S4 Ep2: How to find people who will help you build your tech start up - with Dom Ivison</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8062107</link>
      <description>Ever had a product idea and thought, why hasn’t anyone made that? 

You could be sitting on the next big thing! 

No joke. 

I hear you now, saying yeah right… where do I even begin? 

Today on Snippets of Genius Dom Ivision shares that the people, agencies, investors and clients who will take your idea into orbit are closer than you think. 

Dom has spent the last four years building his tech start-up from the seed of an idea to million pound accounts with This That; the World’s first fun survey. 

Today, Dom shares his founder secrets, we cover: 

- The investment journey  - Getting seed capital with side hustles, savings, accelerators and angels. 
- Your first step to getting an investor 
- The best way to spend your first funds 
- Where smart money can be found and what it is 
- Overcoming the knowledge gap when going into entrepreneurship 
- The magic ingredients to persuade people to follow you anywhere -
-  plus the best hiring story I have heard!
- Starting out, winning a £300 project and scaling to multi-million pound deals. 


When it comes to taking the leap and navigating the start-up world, taking people on the journey with you is critical, it means a huge dollop of self-belief, taking risks and persuading others to bet on you too. 

Tune in now and learn 
- What the single most effective thing you can do is to get the ball rolling 
- What will take the biggest part of your budget when you’re starting a tech firm 
- How to respond when you’re asked to do a case study for free by big brands 
- What to look for in your co-founder - the perfect mix 
- How you can address diversity in the workplace and the benefits it brings 
- What to do when you lose because of the negative way a team member comes across


If you’ve been curious what it takes to bring a new fun idea to life and gain million pound client accounts, this conversation is a must listen.

      <title>S4 Ep1: 5 tips when speaking to investors to make your proposition land with Zitah McMillan, Co Founder &amp; CEO Predictive Black</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/8056219</link>
      <description>My guest Zitah McMillan CEO and Co Founder of Predictive Black, shares her experience navigating the start up landscape to build a complex SaaS business in the world of FinTech.

A staggering, 83% of all FinTech executives are male, so unsurprisingly this has left Zitah sometimes questioning if she is in the right place.

Join us to learn how Zitah has built up her own resilience, connected with like-minded people, developed frameworks to operate within and constantly stayed curious to maintain a growth mindset.

We unpack the steps to take your products to market. You’ll get a sneak peak at the conversations had inside the pitch rooms and the inside scoop on holding your nerve, making your case and the non-stop iterations you will face to make your value proposition land.

Tune in and learn: 
- How to understand feedback and the steps to move forward quickly
- Where the value is within negative feedback
- How to navigate the difficult questions
- When to bite and when not to
- How to assess the right investor for your business
- When you will need a strategic investor versus dumb money
- What to do when you’re triggered to make a wrong move and how to recover.

Zitah’s work in progress attitude takes us on a journey to accept that you might not end up where you first thought and that you don’t necessarily want a faster horse in these interesting times we now live in, and that’s ok.

We’d love to know your biggest takeaway from this episode and which tips help you the most to re calibrate your approach to funding or simply avoid the early day pitfalls. Come over to the Snippets of Genius Community, on LinkedIn and share your thoughts with us!

      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7982055</link>
      <description>Did you know 30% of start ups fail due to the emotional state of a founders wellbeing? 

Taking steps to support both your physical and mental health, put simply, makes good business sense. However, asking for help takes strength and sharing your feelings and emotions takes courage. 

It is my hope that sharing my personal story will be a small contribution to normalise the conversation around mental health and help you take action too.

Fear, anger, disbelief, denial, sadness all hit me hard after a traumatic holiday experience that left me reeling. 

Listen out for the prompts that made me check-in, dig deeper, and speak more openly…

Tune in and learn:  
- The simple methods to combat denial and release fear and anger
- Why seeking support in many forms helps to recover faster
- How to be kind to yourself and deal with your emotions  


Your ability to control, manage and support your emotional state is critical to your success. 

Stay tuned to the end where I reveal the best support I received and now champion.

      <title>S3 Ep7: The secrets to be more creative, compassionate, and connected with Jennifer Tarjanyi </title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7972904</link>
      <description>Do you love learning but can easily recall some fairly crap experiences? 

Have you been on a company training program that did nothing for you?

Did a dreaded role play and experienced no lasting benefits? 

Does all this leave you wondering how you can train your staff and build your company to be more connected, compassionate, and creative? 

Then you’re in the right place. 

In this episode we unpack how you and your team can get on the fast track to growth and building a better business by Unlearning. 


This week’s Genius guest is Jennifer Tarjanyi, who had a profound personal journey in the form of a pilgrimage to the end of the world, that inspired her coaching consultancy; Fisterra. 

Jennifer revelations, off the back of a 15 year career in learning and development, meant the time had come for the rest of the world to catch up. 
 
So, if you are longing for things to be different, it’s time to put an end to the weird corporate world we’re all in and build one you love.  

Tune in and learn: 
- What it means to deprogram yourself 
- The antidote to the avocado affect in corporate decision making 
- How to become present aware, and deliberate to smash through barriers and excel in your role 
- Why the up and to the right mentality is not the be all and end all when it comes to transformational coaching. Introducing Thick data and Thin data 

I hope you enjoy this episode, but most of all I hope you take action from it. Start by asking yourself some hard questions and be honest with yourself: 

- Do you thrive or despair in a culture where you have to win at any costs?
- Do you feel comfortable or uncomfortable with polite dishonesty
- Does office gossip make you smile or cringe? 

Being true to yourself is the fastest track to happiness…and building a culture where your people will thrive.  Let us know what resonated most with you in this episode or share your next step to change the status quo and build more value led, human business.

      <title>S3 Ep5: Don't Stop Believing with Mills Gray </title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7964442</link>
      <description>Do you dream of a life less ordinary, one where you can create standout memories and achieve freedom in your life? 

Tune in for today’s special guest, Mills Gray, as she reveals the secrets to staying the course. The opportunities, the defining moments that have kept her the hell away from a corporate setting and supercharged 13 happy years doing what she loves. 

Naturally there are highs and lows inside any entrepreneurial journey but Mills’ brings the weird and wonderful to the table; from a Granny’s living room to the MGM Arena in Vegas, no less!

If you’ve ever felt out of step or out of place with those around you, you’re not alone. Mills shares the challenges she felt being in any kind of institution, and the freedom she had found through her entrepreneurial endeavors. 

This episode is the perfect companion for when you hear the inner critic…telling you, “you’re not clever enough to do this” or worse planting the seed of doubt with questions like “but what will people think?” Get ready to silence those voices and bust those false beliefs wide open. 

Tune in and learn 
- How to not give a f**k what other people think with practical steps to achieve anything you want to do. 
- Why Investing in yourself is and forever will be the best money you ever spend. 
- Why it’s important to get help quickly and what to focus on 
- The special ingredients to boost your business 
- How to free yourself from the feeling of not doing enough by working with your energy

I hope you enjoy today’s episode and that you will take inspired action to find your way to build a business and life you love. 

Need a quick motivational boost to get you going? Why not press play on Mills' favourite belter from The Greatest Showman:

      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7955793</link>
      <description>Welcome back for the second installment in this mini series of Kate Bradley Chernis’ entrepreneurial journey. In this episode we peak behind the veneer of a business on the up, winning portfolio work, and entering into spaces most tech start ups only dream of, to discover the harsh reality of playing the venture game.



We start with the unusual thinking Kate delivered for the American retail giant, Walmart. How her genius sparked the imagination of, her now co-founder, Steve and catapulted her into the ring with all manner of investors.



From the moment she stepped in to the pitch contests Kate openly shares her struggles and the pitfalls you need to watch out for.



We dive into:




How a 98% sales Conversion and 240% Growth in a global pandemic can equate to no money in the bank.

How Kate’s tenacity has secured her place working with the biggest names in the industry, including Jason Calacanis, legendary Silicon Valley angel investor’s accelerator and the world leading marketing expert Gary V, but her company still had no money.




All this plus the juicy insider knowledge you need to know if you want to survive…anything the world throws at you.



Tune in and learn




The signs that you’re not being taking seriously by investors

Kate’s definition of the golden ticket.

How Kate’s team response to Covid

Why Kate thinks women VC’s are worse than men and why.

The stages of raising and the jargon you’ll need to learn:
Product market fit

Go to market fit

Growth in moat – crossing the chasm

Term sheets

The money dance








We are back next week with the final part of Kate’s roller coaster ride to learn her biggest challenges to date plus how the story ends with the women investors.

In this episode we peak behind the veneer of a business on the up, winning portfolio work, and entering into spaces most tech start ups only dream of, to discover the harsh reality of playing the venture game.<br>
<br>


We start with the unusual thinking Kate delivered for the American retail giant, Walmart. How her genius sparked the imagination of, her now co-founder, Steve and catapulted her into the ring with all manner of investors.<br>

<br>


We dive into:<br>
<br>


<ul>
<li>How a 98% sales Conversion and 240% Growth in a global pandemic can equate to no money in the bank.</li>
<li>How Kate’s tenacity has secured her place working with the biggest names in the industry, including Jason Calacanis, legendary Silicon Valley angel investor’s accelerator and the world leading marketing expert Gary V, but her company still had no money.</li>
</ul>
<br>

All this plus the juicy insider knowledge you need to know if you want to survive…anything the world throws at you.<br>

      <title>S3 Ep2: The secrets, the changes and the catalysts to Kate Bradley Chernis’ entrepreneurial journey</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7951588</link>
      <description>How much do you think you’ll change over the next 10 years? How much to think you have changed in the last decade? What do you predict will happen? Can you imagine? 

Imagining your own is hard, Kate’s is unbelievable! This could be an epic movie, a binge worthy TV series.. Kate even jokes the book will be good. 

Introducing the first of three roller-coaster snippets, here's a glimpse of what’s in this episode:

*Truly unfair life events have taken their toll to the point she couldn't see her way out. 
*The lawless world of Radio; what seemed a glamorous career on the surface and the dark reality underneath.
*The moment Kate lost the ability to use her hands and any keyboard ever again and what she did next. 
*An unusual job requires usual talents and family support that helped pave the way for her first agency and now business Lately.ai.

Kate shares the secrets to her success and the catalysts that changed her world and created her future self that we know today.

Tune in and learn:
*Why you need to be open to the change and the catalysts to watch out for
*Why having a glass half empty can be useful for CEO
*The power of your gut and why you must listen
*Why you must doll your asks out carefully as a leader 
*How you can turn around your life and the lives of those closest to you with small changes
*The negative talk that's keeping you stuck
*The secret to earning the salary you always wanted

Tune in for the second part of Kate's entrepreneurial journey next week where the roller-coaster takes a turn and goes up…followed very fast by another pull back down.

      <title>S3 Ep1: The proven ways to create FOMO; help, share, collaborate and get everybody talking #E1S3 May King Tsang</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7946907</link>
      <description>To kick us off this series, I have the amazing May King Tsang, who is known for her ability to create FOMO. 

May King has built her reputation and her authority in the world of making tea and making mistakes; as all us humans do. In this episode she shares with us her energy, optimism and bravery to find her path to success. 

The contents is revealing!

The time honored strategy to help, share, and collaborate to achieve momentum and make the journey that much more fun has allowed May King’s to raise her, and her clients profiles. 

One stunt, attracted new business in under 20mins from activation. Join us to learn her industry secrets and dive deep into the challenges of crippling self doubt, and the inevitable rise of the negative Nellie!



May King is now a top 50 recommended speaker in the world of tea. A legend in the twitter sphere for creating FOMO. And a multi-passionate entrepreneur bursting with creative ideas.



Tune in and you’ll learn:




Why we all need to stop being so British if we want to stand out online.

How to lean into your gifts and get clients seeking you out

What Muhammad Ali said the helped May King get out of her own way.

How to move the needle on your creative ideas by building up your self belief, confidence and prioritising self care

The deadly trap of comparisonitus and the simple truth to remember to overcome it

Why a Jim Carrey’s 90s movie can tell you everything you need to know about creating FOMO; and how you too can do it well.




This show is a laugh a minute with raw honesty, vulnerability and a good dose of the life and business lessons. The secret ingredients to rise to the top, create FOMO and stay a good human.

      <title>S2 Ep9: How to set goals the right way; to regain your balance and make your dreams happen </title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7884278</link>
      <description>Have you let waiting become a habit? 


Are you waiting for the right time, better circumstances or maybe waiting until you’ve made more money? 


I’m sorry to be the one that breaks it to you, but life waits for no one. You’ve got to grab life by the balls and I recommend growing a pair of your own.


I know you have big ambitions and you’re not here to play it small. So break the habit and don’t let your seemingly never ending to do list keep you waiting for success to come your way. 


Before I was an entrepreneur, I was working in agency land, which for those in the know, you'll be well aware this is not a 9-5. This is late night pitches, early starts, late finishes; whatever it takes to get the job done. I’m not afraid of hard work, I actually quite enjoy getting stuck in but it was sucking the life out of me. 


Which, I know, makes me sound dramatic, but here is what I mean... 


You know, when your heart and soul is telling you to be brave and to do something that would radically change your circumstances? And yet you ignore it? Or you just keep pushing it to one side because you're busy? This IS your waiting habit.


You become so busy doing the ‘have tos you have no time to do the want tos’.


And, when you get really good at it, that little voice inside you, which is telling you to do all the things you want to do, gets lost. 


Then, you blink and it’s 3 years later and everything is the same.


You’re once again finishing work exhausted. Flopping down on the sofa. Turning on Netflix. Pouring that large G&amp;T, beer, wine… whatever your go to is. Another day done. 


Then you feel so deflated because another 3 years have passed and you still haven’t done those things you really want to do. 


Like go live abroad, find that dream partner, start that dream business or build your business on your terms in a way that sets your heart on fire. 


You haven’t found that courage. 


You’ve somehow forgotten how awesome you are. 


You wish you had done more and I know this because I’ve been there and I’ve let waiting become a habit. 


Setting goals is the first step to break the habit. 


So, today I urge you to take the time to remember all the interesting things that you love, that light you up, that give you the renewed energy to take on that next big challenge. 


Because when you set goals the right way. Big things happen, life changing things that create a ripple effect and before you know it you are smashing goals left right and centre. 


I can honestly tell you this, as I’m now recording this episode from my brand new home in Italy, it’s everything I ever dreamed of and I feel very grateful that I have arrived here. 


In today’s show I’m going to share with you what I fundamentally believe was instrumental to make this happen.


Tune in and you’ll learn:  


The strategies and real life examples to hit your BHAGS



How to set goals the right way



2 tools that helped me smash my big 12 month goal for 2021 in under 6 months.



Example situations that hold you back from achieving your goals, without you realising



1 critical thing you need to do to smash a goals in 2021



The scorecard method to clarify the needle moving goals in your life and business



Simple steps to up level every area of your life






I hope that after listening, you’re feeling revved up to take on the second half of this year.


You can do anything you set your mind to, give yourself the permission to dream then start taking the right actions. 


You’ve got this!


I love to hear success stories so let me know what you took away from today’s show and most importantly how you’re going to take action and break the waiting habit. 


Make your dream life and business happen today, I’m cheering you on. 


Ciao for now! 
Caroline

        <![CDATA[Have you let waiting become a habit? 
<br>

Are you waiting for the right time, better circumstances or maybe waiting until you’ve made more money? 
<br>

I’m sorry to be the one that breaks it to you, but life waits for no one. You’ve got to grab life by the balls and I recommend growing a pair of your own.
<br>

I know you have big ambitions and you’re not here to play it small. So break the habit and don’t let your seemingly never ending to do list keep you waiting for success to come your way. 
<br>

Before I was an entrepreneur, I was working in agency land, which for those in the know, you'll be well aware this is not a 9-5. This is late night pitches, early starts, late finishes; whatever it takes to get the job done. I’m not afraid of hard work, I actually quite enjoy getting stuck in but it was sucking the life out of me. 
<br>

Which, I know, makes me sound dramatic, but here is what I mean... 
<br>

You know, when your heart and soul is telling you to be brave and to do something that would radically change your circumstances? And yet you ignore it? Or you just keep pushing it to one side because you're busy? This IS your waiting habit.
<br>

You become so busy doing the ‘have tos you have no time to do the want tos’.
<br>

And, when you get really good at it, that little voice inside you, which is telling you to do all the things you want to do, gets lost. 
<br>

Then, you blink and it’s 3 years later and everything is the same.
<br>

You’re once again finishing work exhausted. Flopping down on the sofa. Turning on Netflix. Pouring that large G&amp;T, beer, wine… whatever your go to is. Another day done. 
<br>

Then you feel so deflated because another 3 years have passed and you still haven’t done those things you really want to do. 
<br>

Like go live abroad, find that dream partner, start that dream business or build your business on your terms in a way that sets your heart on fire. 
<br>

You haven’t found that courage. 
<br>

You’ve somehow forgotten how awesome you are. 
<br>

You wish you had done more and I know this because I’ve been there and I’ve let waiting become a habit. 
<br>

Setting goals is the first step to break the habit. 
<br>

So, today I urge you to take the time to remember all the interesting things that you love, that light you up, that give you the renewed energy to take on that next big challenge. 
<br>

Because when you set goals the right way. Big things happen, life changing things that create a ripple effect and before you know it you are smashing goals left right and centre.

      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7874439</link>
      <description>Are you enjoying being an entrepreneur? 

Or do you feel tired of wearing all the hat’s, spinning a million plates and are you starting to feel like you are working way too much with too little reward? Then you are potentially missing the golden opportunities to make the entrepreneurial ride a whole lot easier and whole lot more fun! 

Lauren Armes is back to share how you can keep yourself on the right track, position for success, and get that winning feeling back every week. 

Building a business should be the best decision you ever made. 
In Lauren's own words:

 “I would never want to lull anybody into a false sense of security that entrepreneurship is going to be easy, but I approach each challenge with a sense of how can I make this easier?”
In this episode, Lauren unpacks exactly how she made it easier for herself and how you can too.

Tune in and learn:
*What is stopping you from achieving the success you know are capable of
*Why personal development is critical to achieve the next level of success
*The critical investments to build your belief system
*How to recognise when you’re keeping yourself small
*Why each failure will give you the greatest gift and what this is
*How you can adopt a mindset of ease to each challenge

Stay tuned to the end, where Lauren provides her top resources including The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks

Plus, her biggest inspiration and the best advice she ever received on her entrepreneurial journey.

And then the next week you can say there's a better way of doing things that we did the week before.

      <title>S1 Ep7:  How to achieve authentic well-being and thrive - with Nat Lipecka</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7797420</link>
      <description>Today’s guest wants you to thrive, but what does that mean? 


Nat Lipecka, Life and Performance Coach at Everwell, takes us on her own journey from a successful career that nearly broke her spirit to gaining the clarity she needed to break free, reinvent herself, and expand her potential.  Today she is thriving and helping other high performing professionals to do it too.


The right process, strategy and support is CRITICAL to achieve everything you want in life and more. Get these right and the rewards of living your life, your way, is limitless. 


In today’s episode Nat shares the moments that make the journey worth it, the signs you need to look for, and the moments to treasure. 


Tune in and you will learn: 



The start-up philosophy you need to embrace to really move the needle in your business now.  

When building the business over the weekend isn’t right and you need to take the leap

How you can show-up and do the work -  even when you’re in lockdown. 

Why finding the energy is not the hard part when starting a business 

How to figure out your business idea fast 

The key points you need to consider before taking your first client

Why your rational brain is keeping you stuck

The attributes to look for in your first clients 

The 3 questions you need to ask yourself to know if you’re on your best path to success




Make sure you listen to the end for Nat’s advice. It’s the snippet of genius she gives to her clients to speed up progress and achieve your very own version of success and thrive in work and life. 


Although, there is no straight line to success, the most important thing is you make that choice. Decide now to start living without compromise, start living authentically and be the very best you can be. 


As Nat says:  “sometimes you just gotta do what will sustain you for now, but the key is you just gotta keep looking out for it”.


Wherever you are on your journey, I hope you enjoy this episode and most importantly take action from it. 


Let me know your biggest A-ha! moments, or share with me your questions.

      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7789144</link>
      <description>Have you spent your life in one place? One city? One job? Coasting along, happy enough but never really feeling the urge to disrupt your life, until now? 


If you’re dreaming of changing it up, making a contribution, and no longer settling with how things are.....today’s guest will inspire. 


Chris Cummings, CEO of Sonas Group shares his personal story that gave him the wake-up punch he needed to step out of his portfolio career and build a business that would dial up conversations in corporate wellness, shift people’s thinking and create global change.
 
Chris is on a mission to create workplaces where employees thrive everywhere. In this episode he shares how he built a global community and scaled his teams across Australia, North America and the UK with passion, authenticity and a clear purpose.  


If you’ve ever longed for a thriving business with purpose, you’ll love this episode! 


Tune in and you’ll learn: 



Why we all need much more than simply a job that pays the rent

The 2 questions you must ask yourself to find your purpose

How to make even the most difficult conversations a positive one

The importance of visualising your success 

Why real leaders are the ones who are brave enough to share their story 

How to attract industry heavy-weights to be part of your start-up

The challenges of breaking into new markets and how to speed it up

How you can find the energy to overcome any challenge




Chris’ talk will inspire you to make the difference you were born to make. Let this be the year that you take a stand for something that you know our world needs. If you are thinking it and feeling it, 9 times out of 10 there will be someone out there in the world feeling exactly the way you do too and ready to help you!. 


Stop letting life pass you by, get in the driving seat and rev those engines and you’ll see a crowd ready to follow you anywhere.

      <title>S1 Ep5: Is it insane to start a business in the midst of the pandemic? Interview with Lucy Nelson </title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7783691</link>
      <description>Whatever life throws at us, this always brings up new customer needs or simply creates a bigger need. 


In today’s show we talk about starting not one but two businesses, which both solve a real customer pain -  mental, physical, emotional and everything in between.


My guest is Lucy Nelson, Director &amp; CEO of 2XN, A healthcare marketing and business development agency and Co-founder of The Life Plan; a bespoke online fitness, nutrition and wellness platform - launched in mid-2020. 


Lucy is a born risk taker, who by her own admission can’t sit still for long. After the pandemic rolled in and her first business had her full team put on furlough, she dove deep into her passion for sports and started her life-long-dream of a business with her bestie. 


Whether or not you're struggling to decide on your next move or next business idea, this episode is guaranteed to inspire! Lucy will give you some of the answers you’ve been hunting for, from the how to the what, when and why and how she put it all into action full throttle. 


Buckle up for her fast paced start-up journey. 


Tune in and learn 



How to take your experience and amplify it to create a business fast 

Why when you’re willing to dive deep everything you need to start is at your fingertips

When you might think you’ve failed but in fact, you’re doing better than you think

What personality traits to look for in your co-founder 

The critical steps to creating your minimal viable product (MVP) 

Why scaling back can be the best thing for your business - and sanity! 

How when you get it right, you can go from dreaming about going live to bringing in your first customer in under 2 hours. 

The best way to develop your proposition and launch with impact 

The trials and tribulations of name development and how you will know it’s the right one







There is never a perfect time to start a business, you need to go for it. Believe in yourself and that everything you've done up to now has led you to this point in your life. 


As Lucy says: 


‘Don’t be scared of change. Just because you have a plan, and you have it in your head that something needs to be done a certain way. It doesn’t matter that it changes. Change is good, at the time you might feel like you failed, but you haven’t, it’s going to help everything in the long run”.


The truth is:  You’ve got to adapt. 


Your dream business is out there waiting for you to take action. 


Make it happen!

      <title>S1 Ep4: The perfect time to start your business is now - with Tony O'Sullivan</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7777912</link>
      <description>Are you working long hours? 
Do you have little time for friends and family? 
Are you too tired in your free time to really make the most of it? 


If you're struggling to listen to your heart and start your business, today’s episode will help. 


This week's guest was struggling with the exact same issues for 5 long years. Even after an eye opening experience in Australia, giving up the successful career and finding clarity took guts, self belief, self discipline and a plan of attack. 


Fast forward from that moment and 15 months later Tony O’Sullivan is enjoying real work life balance as London’s Mobile Pet Vet; for pet enthusiasts across all walks of life, even A-list celebrities. 


How did he know, (how do any of us know) it's the right time to start?


By choosing to explore an idea and giving it the chance to grow. Tony takes us on his journey from the glow of an idea to a full on blaze. 


Join our conversation and learn: 



How to recognise when it’s time to take the plunge

Why you mustn’t fool yourself at the start and what to expect in the beginning 

How much time you really need to launch any business on your own

Why you must avoid the misguided advice from friends in the early days

The 4 things to consider when starting out 

Why you're staying where you are longer than you should

Your best tools to stay the course and what it really means when people say it’s tough at the start

Why being an entrepreneur can bring you more happiness. Fact. 

The success you can achieve very quickly if you stick to your plan! 




Now, I’d love to hear from you.  Did this episode give you the courage and confidence to take the leap? Remind you of an idea you’ve been sitting on for a while now?

James Starkey is a Digital Marketing Strategist, who was tired of agency-life and wanted to take a different approach. Now James has nearly 4 years as a creative entrepreneur under his belt and many more in his future.

Join our conversation and learn: 



How to recognise the kick-start opportunity and when it’s staring you in the face

The Killer Attack Submarine theory 

What’s needed to allow you to focus on the business

The best way to move through the fear and scale 

The real measure of success at any stage of business

      <title>S1 Ep2: How to create a revolution - with Chloe Markham</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7765979</link>
      <description>If you could go back in time and tell your younger self the words to live by what would you say? 


Studio principle and all round yoga-rockstar of The Yoga Revolution, Chloe Markham is on a mission to bring joy into everybody’s lives and enable people to feel better everyday. 


For the past 4 years, Chloe and her main-man (and co-founder) Darren Anderson have worked towards that vision. Leading the revolution with a radically different approach to Yoga, which has now achieved global reach and climbing numbers since the pandemic started. 


Chloe’s on the Snippets of Genius podcast today to share her entrepreneurial journey including all the mistakes, wrong-turns, nightmare bosses, redundancies and lock-down’s that helped get her to where she is now. 


If you know you're meant to make a difference but aren’t sure how, this conversation is a must-listen! 


You’ll learn: 

How to recognise when you’re in the wrong career 

Why the fat paycheck will never make you happy

How to recognise a business that’s the wrong fit for you and when to make the change 

How to start and stand out, even in a saturated market

Why everything in your journey has happened for a reason

Why a rapid response is the only response to a crisis - even the pandemic. 

Why good intentions aren’t enough and you need to commit, commit, commit!

Why following your heart and living by your values are your true guideposts to success 


 
Chloe walks her talk and will inspire you to make the difference you were born to make! 


As Chloe says “If you know or even think it’s the right decision, throw yourself into it fully, it’s like a rollercoaster, you just hold on bloody tight, close your eyes and then brace for impact”. 


Make sure you listen to the end to hear the advice that Chloe lives by and has been one of the key ingredients to her success - they are the words I think every man, woman and budding entrepreneur needs.

      <itunes:summary>If you could go back in time and tell your younger self the words to live by what would you say? 


Studio principle and all round yoga-rockstar of The Yoga Revolution, Chloe Markham is on a mission to bring joy into everybody’s lives and enable people to feel better everyday. 


For the past 4 years, Chloe and her main-man (and co-founder) Darren Anderson have worked towards that vision. Leading the revolution with a radically different approach to Yoga, which has now achieved global reach and climbing numbers since the pandemic started. 


Chloe’s on the Snippets of Genius podcast today to share her entrepreneurial journey including all the mistakes, wrong-turns, nightmare bosses, redundancies and lock-down’s that helped get her to where she is now. 


If you know you're meant to make a difference but aren’t sure how, this conversation is a must-listen! 


You’ll learn: 

How to recognise when you’re in the wrong career 

Why the fat paycheck will never make you happy

How to recognise a business that’s the wrong fit for you and when to make the change 

How to start and stand out, even in a saturated market

Why everything in your journey has happened for a reason

Why a rapid response is the only response to a crisis - even the pandemic. 

Why good intentions aren’t enough and you need to commit, commit, commit!

Why following your heart and living by your values are your true guideposts to success 


 
Chloe walks her talk and will inspire you to make the difference you were born to make! 


As Chloe says “If you know or even think it’s the right decision, throw yourself into it fully, it’s like a rollercoaster, you just hold on bloody tight, close your eyes and then brace for impact”. 


Make sure you listen to the end to hear the advice that Chloe lives by and has been one of the key ingredients to her success - they are the words I think every man, woman and budding entrepreneur needs.

      <title>S1 Ep1: Ben Collins' Entrepreneurial Journey</title>
      <link>https://audioboom.com/posts/7761701</link>
      <description>My premier episode is a beauty, with the devilishly handsome film director and serial entrepreneur Ben Collins.  


Over 13 years in business, Ben reflects on the moment he took the step off the proverbial career ladder and started his own thing, which meant he left the well paid job only to be paid nothing. Most people’s biggest fear, however Ben is proof this can be the best thing that can ever happen to you. 


If you’re looking for a bite size dose of inspiration and a couple of laughs along the way, this  episode will deliver. Ben’s incredible journey of passion, out-right ballsiness, and the biggest dose of self-belief I’ve ever heard, needs to be on your playlist now! 


The highlights: 



Ben’s journey from wanting to be creative to wanting to build businesses. 

The brutal reality of the London Film Scene, when you’re not known within this tight knit community and how he moved forward. 

The impromptu requests from Sky TV, that had him moving heaven and earth to win a contract, in a way you could never imagine. 

Landing a really big client, MTV no less, only to be well and truly shafted by the intermediary...what happened next still shocks Ben himself to this day. 

The big idea that withstood the knock backs and saved his first lucky buyer over half a million pounds! 







Tune in and you’ll learn:



What you need to start - (hint: it’s not what you think). 

How to find the energy and the time to build a business when working a full-time job.

How to find the right people to support you and what to look for. 

The most important things to consider when starting. 

Why you’re never too young to start

How you can always figure it out when you have to!

How a failure can actually be a good thing
