• 317: How to Lead with Emotional Awareness and Build a Valuable (and VALUED) Team with Karine Rayson

  What does the superyachting industry have to do with your leadership style?  Turns out, a whole lot. In this episode, I’m joined by Karine Rayson, an expert in leadership and mental health within the superyacht industry – where teams are required to live and work together 24/7 out at sea. And in that intense environment… leadership matters. And it’s no different for your business. These leadership and communication skills are foundational for any business, even if you’re on dry land. Here’s What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  The metric that sets high-performing teams apart from the rest, and why authoritative leadership is a recipe for ego issues and disengagement. The parallels between life on a superyacht and running a small business – and why it all boils down to leadership and strong team communication. The (so often overlooked!) layers of communication that build trust. How to spot the small, physical signs that signal something’s wrong before it’s too late. Why slipping work, a lack of eye contact, or mismatched energy might actually be a silent plea for support from your team (and what you can do to turn things around). Karine’s psychology-backed tips to make your team feel seen and valued – and why success all starts at onboarding. What emotional literacy really means (and what it DOESN’T!), and why self-awareness is the foundation of leading others well. The most uncomfortable, but essential, thing you can do as a leader to grow your emotional intelligence and improve your team’s ability to work well together. Why shifting from an authoritative leader to a facilitator actually creates a more connected, motivated, and purpose-driven team. Karine’s leadership non-negotiables to create a psychologically safe space, lead people in the same direction towards your ultimate goal, And so, so much more… Mentioned in This Episode: The HerBusiness Network Flung Ceramics with Michelle Cox Michelle Cox’s Podcast - One Question

• 315: How to Become the Leader YOU and Your Team Need (Part 1)

  The success of your business doesn’t just depend on WHO you hire… but on HOW you lead them.  So, how can you ensure that you are being the leader you are meant to be – in order to have a TEAM that shines in their roles, without you getting involved in daily tasks?  Today, we are diving into Part 1 of a 2-part series all about the kind of leadership that transforms businesses from the inside out. This episode is about “Leadership of TEAM” and “Leadership of SELF” – the internal aspects of how you lead in business. What You’ll Learn in Today’s Episode:  What to do when you feel like you’re the only one who truly CARES for your business How to STOP chasing your team for updates, redoing work, and hand-holding Create a team that FREES up your time, rather than creating more work and stress The three types of leadership every woman in business needs to understand – and which should come first Why the shift from doer to director is SO important… but feels so uncomfortable How to create clarity and empowerment with your team (no matter the size) and create a thriving team culture The subtle but crucial difference between managing and LEADING (& how to balance the two!) What “Leadership of Self” actually means… and why it is the foundation of not just your business, but your ability to move confidently through life How to redefine what leadership is ‘supposed’ to mean, let go of the fear and self-doubt, and understand what YOU need in order to lead.   Whether you have no team at all, you’re managing a microbusiness, or you’re evolving how you show up as the leader of an established business… … this episode is about YOU stepping into your power, voice, and ability. And, be sure to join us next week for Part 2 of this series. Mentioned in This Episode: Join the HerBusiness Network HerBusiness Trailblazers Experience

• 314: The Hidden Emotions Behind Your Pricing Decisions (Let’s Pull the Curtain Back)

  “What am I to charge this much?”  “Who do I think I am?”  “No one is going to pay for this!” Many women business owners have had the same doubts — and these doubts can stop us from realising the success that we want. The hidden emotions behind our pricing strategy need to be addressed – because they do nothing but keep you stuck and prevent your ideal clients from receiving the transformation you offer. In this episode, we are talking about why your pricing isn’t the actual problem, how to uncover and manage the emotions that are influencing your decisions, and the pricing mistakes that most people make – that YOU can avoid. Here’s What You’ll Learn in the Episode:  -> Why competitor-based pricing and following the market can keep you stuck and undervalued (even though it’s what we’re “taught” to do!) -> The 2 BIGGEST pricing mistakes I see women business owners making over and over again -> How fear and guilt can disguise themselves as other, more logical or compassionate emotions -> The clear signs that it is time to raise your prices (if you’ve clicked on this episode, it’s likely past time ) -> How to build a ladder of access for your ideal clients (and how to serve more people without undercharging) -> The 7 steps to building a healthier, more confident relationship with your pricing and finances -> How to move from “Will they pay this??” to “Will the right people see this?” -> And so, so much more.

• 313: What If You Followed That Hunch? The Power of Pursuing Curiosity in Business with Valerie Khoo

  In business, we are so often told to stick to a pre-designed path – to stay focused, stick to the formula, and ignore the distractions. But what if curiosity is actually the key to creating a business that both puts money in your pocket and brings fulfilment to your life? That’s what our guest, CEO and Founder of the Australian Writers’ Centre, Valerie Khoo, is all about. She believes that following your curiosity and leaning into your creativity can actually lead you somewhere you never imagined yourself – to the benefit of your business and personal life. Here’s What You’ll Learn in the Episode:  -> How following your curiosity leads to incredible breakthroughs in your business – boosting both your bottom line and your attitude. -> Why embracing a culture of curiosity is essential for both your business and soul (and how to cultivate one!) -> What curiosity really looks like in business, and why following strict formulas and structures might mute the internal voice that guides you. -> The risks of blindly following strategies that don’t align with you – and how to spot when it’s time to reorient yourself. -> How to distinguish between a “bright shiny object” and a curiosity thread that is worth exploring (and why sometimes, it’s OKAY to go down the “rabbit hole”). -> The major discoveries Valarie has made when she decided to embrace curiosity and see where stray interests could lead her. -> How a week at the gym inspired Valerie to scale the Australian Writers’ Centre all across Australia. -> Why getting out of your bubble and learning from people outside your industry can lead to extraordinary ideas and new inspiration. -> How a reality TV show ended up inspiring a course that has changed the lives of veterans and first responders – one of Valerie's most successful courses to this day. -> Why we think of change in binary terms: stay OR pivot. And how you can embrace the in-between space rather than choosing between the two. -> How to begin building a Curiosity Culture – and why it starts with giving yourself permission FIRST.
