Spotting Trends Before They Become the Norm show art Spotting Trends Before They Become the Norm

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

Some business owners have a knack for spotting trends before everyone else catches on. And it’s not luck, but a skill. The ability to see what’s shifting in your industry, what people are craving, and what’s quietly changing before it becomes mainstream can completely change how you position yourself and your business. But here’s the truth: trend-spotting isn’t about chasing every new thing. It’s about listening differently, paying attention to frustration, and being curious enough to notice the patterns that others overlook.  In this episode, I’m sharing how to develop that...

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

If you’ve ever looked around your industry and thought, “Everyone’s offering the same thing,” you’re not imagining it. Every market has noise, and standing out isn’t about shouting louder. It’s about showing up differently. Being unique doesn’t always mean inventing something brand new. Often, it’s about reimagining what already exists and delivering it in a way that feels distinctly you.  In this episode, I’m sharing how to uncover the magic within your existing offers and turn it into something people remember, connect with, and keep coming back for. How to Stand Out...

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

When you create for a living, inspiration can sometimes feel like a moving target. Whether it’s for podcasts, courses, or client projects, there’s this quiet pressure to keep showing up with fresh ideas. But inspiration isn’t magic; it’s consistency.

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

When we think of innovators, we often picture the big names: the ones who build rockets, create tech empires, or disrupt entire industries. But innovation isn’t limited to billion-dollar ideas or global platforms. True innovation happens in the everyday. When you see things differently, experiment with new approaches, and turn challenges into opportunities. It’s about bringing fresh thinking into familiar spaces and consistently showing up with ideas that move things forward. The good news? You don’t have to be loud or flashy to be seen as an innovator. You just have to be intentional,...

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

When most people hear the word creative, they picture designers, artists, or the ones with colour palettes, clever fonts, and mood boards. But creativity in business goes far beyond visuals. It’s about how we approach challenges, how we spot opportunities, and how we keep our business evolving. Creativity is a skill every business owner can build. And when you strengthen it, you unlock new ways to solve problems, connect with customers, and stay ahead of change. In this episode, we’ll explore how creative thinking shows up in everyday business and how you can start flexing your own...

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

Have you ever had one of those lightbulb moments sparked by something completely unrelated to your field? Maybe a café’s reward system gave you an idea for keeping clients engaged, or a podcast on a totally different topic triggered a clever improvement in your business.

How I Come Up With Content Ideas show art How I Come Up With Content Ideas

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

If I had 5 cents for every time someone asked me how I come up with content ideas, I'd have an income stream all of its own. The truth is, the most powerful content isn't created by sitting at your desk trying to produce something perfect. It comes from being curious about what's already happening in your business and in your customers' lives each day.

Talk with Linda Reed-Enever

Business doesn’t come with a rulebook, but oh, how I wish it did sometimes. In this episode, I’m opening up and sharing four lessons I really wish I’d learned earlier in my business journey. These aren’t the glossy textbook tips. These are the kind that come with late nights, tough calls, and a lot of hindsight.
