The Lisa Bean Podcast

In order to grow your business as an entrepreneur, you must have a clear answer for these three questions: What are you doing to reach into new markets? How are you build a strong reputation for providing value in those new markets? How are you inviting people to buy? Finding the answer to these questions is a lot about experimentation in the beginning. You begin with a hypothesis, which says: “I think that if I turn up here, in this way, and offer this service, people will buy”. This is not only about making informed decisions between multiple options, it’s about going out and testing...

The Lisa Bean Podcast

A few weeks ago I did something I’ve never done before. I put on my first ever theatre-style business show: Laugh or You’ll Cry. A full script. Lighting cues. Sound cues. Slide timing. Jokes I had to actually write and rehearse. For someone whose speaking style is usually “a few bullet points and make the rest up as you go along”, this pushed me right to the edge of my ability. But what surprised me the most wasn’t the logistics of putting on a show… it was what it did to my nervous system. In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of the experience and sharing a huge...

Being in business is hard. It's full on. It's busy. This is especially true when you're winning clients and working hard to deliver behind the scenes. For all those reasons, the balance of creating content and delivering what you've promised to clients is a hard one to maintain. Personally, I've found producing content daily impossible. It's a different energy, and it takes a while to get things set up. That's why we don't do it! We create a lot of our content in key filming days, where we get everything set up, plan our content, and film 4/5 videos in one day! It's effective. It's...

Competence is the result you get when you something hard, over and over, until (a) you learn how to get the hard result; and / or, (b) it becomes part of who you are.

Competence isn’t an empty sales promise. It’s an unshakable skill no-one can take from you and people want to buy from you!

Here’s the truth:

No one’s coming to your door to stop you making sales.
No one’s blocking your progress.

Business rewards the entrepreneur who build this kind of competence by pushing themselves beyond what they know to be comfortable, by taking a risk, by practicing a new skill until they own it.

In this live talk, I share the raw, funny, and (often!) humbling stories that taught me the true meaning of competence, which became the foundation of every business I went on to build.

💡 In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What competence really means, and how you can become unshakable no matter what happens.
  • The difference between knowledge and wisdom: How true thought leadership is born from lived experience, not theory.
  • The role of repetition in mastery: The hidden power of showing up weekly, refining your craft, and building real evidence of skill.
  • Why social media has sold you a lie: The myth of “easy business” and what it actually takes to build success from scratch.
  • How to turn experience into leadership: Using your journey, insights, and failures to create value and impact in your industry.

🧠 Key insights from the episode:

“Competence comes from practising a skill that is difficult and getting so good at it that it doesn’t matter what happens — you’re still competent.”

“You’re not an entrepreneur until you’re on the journey of developing competence.”

“When you’ve lived it, you can speak the truth. That’s what people feel – that’s wisdom.”

“Business isn’t easy. You’re making up an idea and trying to convince people to buy it. That’s the hardest and most beautiful thing in the world.”
