#21: Healing from Within: How to Embrace your Authentic Self with Ayódele O Kolade
We all experience periods of self-doubt, uncertainty, and even depression. For some, these feelings are fleeting, while for others, they can become a persistent struggle. Regardless of where you fall on this spectrum, it's essential to recognize that overcoming these challenges is possible and that you have the power to transform your life through self-discovery and self-acceptance. Ayódele, is an inspiring individual who shares her journey towards self-discovery, overcoming clinical depression, and unlocking her personal potential. Through this conversation, we learn about the importance of consistency and self-belief in achieving success in self-employment, as well as the transformative power of forgiveness and acceptance. Identifying and Accepting Personal Problems One of the first steps towards self-discovery and overcoming personal challenges is identifying and accepting that there may be a problem. As Ayódele explains, this is a subjective and individual process. Ask yourself if the way you're showing up in your life is negatively impacting any area, and if the version of yourself you present to the world is the true version you want to be. If the answer is yes, it may be time to do some inner work and start digging deeper into understanding who you are and what you can change. The Power of Forgiveness and Acceptance Forgiveness is a crucial component of healing and moving forward in life. It requires acceptance of the things we've done, the ways we want to change, and the desire to show up differently for ourselves and others. As Ayódele emphasizes, diving deeply into self-discovery and getting to know yourself at a profound level is essential for making positive changes in your life. Consistency and Self-Belief in Self-Employment When pursuing self-employment, it's crucial to maintain consistency and believe in yourself and your abilities. As Ayódele, there is often a misconception of 'overnight success' when, in reality, achieving success can take years of hard work and dedication. Believing in your unique gifts and what you bring to the table will propel you forward and help you stay committed to your goals. Embracing the journey of self-discovery and overcoming personal challenges, such as depression, can be transformative and empowering. By identifying and accepting the areas in which we need to improve, practicing forgiveness, and maintaining consistency and self-belief in our pursuits, we can unlock our personal potential and create a life that truly reflects who we are and what we have to offer the world.

#20: Timing is Everything: Why Good Advice Alone is Not Enough for Business Success with Wayne Mullins

#20: Timing is Everything: Why Good Advice Alone is Not Enough for Business Success with Wayne Mullins
In today's world, entrepreneurs are bombarded with advice from all directions. From podcasts and YouTube channels to business books and seminars, there is no shortage of guidance for those seeking to create their own success. However, as Wayne, a highly successful entrepreneur and marketing consultant, explains in this podcast episode, simply copying the strategies of others can lead to disappointment if not executed correctly and at the right time. Instead, Wayne shares his insights on the importance of timing and staying true to your own entrepreneurial path for ultimate success. The Importance of Timing One of the key takeaways from Wayne's story is the impact of timing on the entrepreneurial journey. He explains that good advice applied at the wrong time can actually be bad advice, and that understanding the right moment to implement a strategy is crucial for success. Wayne's own journey began with leaving a corporate sales job to start a lawn and landscape company, which he grew into one of the largest in his region. However, this growth was not without its challenges and setbacks. Wayne attributes much of his success to being mindful of the timing of when he applied advice from other successful entrepreneurs and tailoring it to his own unique situation. Authenticity in Business Another key component of entrepreneurial success, according to Wayne, is staying true to yourself and your goals. This means resisting the temptation to simply copy the strategies of others who may be further along in their journey. Instead, focus on understanding your clients' pain points, frustrations, desires, and goals, and create a plan that aligns with your values and strengths. One tool that Wayne recommends for this process is the "Magic Journal Exercise." This exercise involves imagining your ideal client's daily journal entry, complete with their emotional state, pain points, and desires. By understanding your clients on a deeper level, you can create more authentic and effective marketing strategies that truly resonate with them. Distinguishing Assets from Actions A common pitfall for many entrepreneurs is the "shiny object syndrome," or the tendency to jump from one idea to another without fully investing in any of them. Wayne suggests that one way to combat this is by distinguishing assets from actions. Instead of simply copying the actions of others, focus on building similar assets that align with your strengths and abilities. For example, if a successful entrepreneur is using video marketing to build a loyal following, consider whether your own strengths lie in video, writing, or graphic design. By focusing on building the same type of asset in a way that aligns with your skills, you can avoid the trap of simply copying actions without understanding the true value behind them. The key to unlocking entrepreneurial success lies in mastering the art of timing and authenticity. By being mindful of when to apply advice, staying true to your own path, and focusing on building assets that align with your strengths, you can create a thriving business that stands out from the competition. For more insights and wisdom from Wayne, check out his marketing agency, Ugly Mug Marketing, or his book, Full Circle Marketing. And remember, the journey to entrepreneurial success is not a linear path – but with the right approach and mindset, you can achieve your goals and create the life and business you've always dreamed of.

In this episode of the Self-Employed Success podcast, we were joined by Tony Kitchens, a seasoned entrepreneur with over 32 years of experience in the industry. Tony shared his insights on what it means to be an entrepreneur, the difference between a business owner and an entrepreneur, and the mindset and attitude required to succeed as an entrepreneur. Tony Kitchens began by discussing the roles that are most important to him - being a husband and father. He then went on to explain that his passion lies in being an entrepreneur, constantly looking for ways to make improvements and take a path that others haven't taken. For Tony, being an entrepreneur means having the drive to make a substantial change in people's lives. According to Tony, success comes in many different flavors, including success in life, relationships, health, and career or business. To achieve success, Tony emphasized the importance of having the right mindset and attitude. Tony pointed out that when you work for someone else, you are helping them fulfill their goals and dreams, whereas when you are an entrepreneur, you are working toward your own goals and dreams. While being an entrepreneur may require more time and less freedom than working for someone else, Tony believes that these are positive aspects because you have the opportunity to work as much as you want toward your goals. When faced with challenges, Tony suggests keeping your eye on your goals and dreams to make it easier to work through the difficulties. He also emphasized the importance of having a "first win" as an entrepreneur, which validates all the hard work and effort that has been put into the business.

#14 Young & Successful: The Story of a 22-Year-Old CEO with Guest: Sean Si

#14 Young & Successful: The Story of a 22-Year-Old CEO with Guest: Sean Si
In this episode of the Self-Employed Success Podcast, Sean Si, shares his story of how he built his business from scratch. When he started, Sean had a small, cramped office, and he was freelancing while trying to sell SEO. At the time, many people in the Philippines didn't know what SEO was, but Sean stumbled upon it accidentally while trying to increase the readership of his blog about his faith. He learned the ins and outs of SEO and eventually started his own business, which grew and grew until he needed to hire more people and rent a bigger office. Despite his success, Sean admits that he felt like an imposter at first. He had no managerial experience and didn't know how to lead or sell. However, when he saw that he could fulfill the promises he made to his clients, he gained more confidence and began to see himself as a professional. One of the key takeaways from Sean's story is the importance of perseverance. Even when things were tough, Sean didn't give up. He continued to learn, experiment, and adapt until he found a strategy that worked. Another takeaway is the power of faith. Sean credits his success to a series of divine interventions that led him to SEO and ultimately to his business. Sean's story is an inspiring example of what can happen when you combine hard work, perseverance, and a little bit of luck. It's a reminder that success doesn't always come easy, but it's always possible if you're willing to put in the effort.
