(Pulled from show transcript — please excuse any typos )

1. Make sure you have your PR speaking kit ready on one spot.

What is actually a PR...

Would you believe me if I told you that if you showed up perfectly for your audience, you’d actually turn them off? 

No one is perfect. Deep down we know this and yet we continue to chase an ideal to the point that we are unwilling to take action until we find the ‘right’ way to get the outcome we want.

But this perfection trap is precisely the thing keeping you from connecting with your audience.

Learn WHY and what to do instead when you show up on stages or other areas in your business where perfection keeps you stuck in this episode.

I just wrapped a 75 day mental toughness challenge and I’m sharing with you what motivated me to complete one of the most intense challenges on the internet— 75 Hard, TWICE.

For 75 days I worked out 2x a day for 45 minutes each, (one of which was outdoors regardless of weather), drank 1 gallon of water, read at least 10 pages from a non fiction book, took a daily progress photo, ate super clean (with no cheats, no dairy and no alcohol)…

All while having my highest podcast download month, signed my largest 1:1 client contract, spoke on my first live stage of the year, and had the biggest ever launch for my program.

I believe that your...

Have you ever felt super motivated to create a plan for your business, but a week later when it’s time to do the work you ghost on your scheduled lives, abandon your content batching blocks and end up in front of Netflix with all the snacks?

It’s confusing because sometimes you’re on FIRE and in flow, then the crash of the entrepreneurial roller coaster has you questioning EVERYTHING.

We feel these highs and lows. And you might be thinking this is just all part of our journey as an entrepreneur.

What if I told you that you could amplify your results, creativity and magnetism by making one simple change?

What is it? It’s your sleep.

Think about it.  When was the last time you woke up feeling rested?

Like really well rested.

Not ‘slam the snooze, feel like you got hit by a freight train (aka your toddler’s midnight kick boxing) start the day guzzling coffee’ morning.

The kind where you wake up and feel clear, energized… good.

Many say that building a business takes sacrifice— but for women who don’t want that sacrifice to come at their family’s expense, they cut back on their “me time”.

Except they didn’t really have “me” time, so they cut back on sleep time.

Sound familiar?

If you’ve felt the pull to share your story in a bigger way from stages, the question is when is the right time to get serious about it?

If you’re like most business owners, you have a list, a mile long filled with competing priorities– many of which are on the “do it now” list, so “speaking on stages” just doesn’t feel urgent.

But what if I told you that speaking on stages is something that can happen much sooner than you think? And what if I told you that the #1 regret my private clients have is not preparing for big stage moments sooner? What if I told you that by taking steps now to speak on stages, you would actually improve other areas of your business?

This is what we’re going to explore in today’s episode. I’ll share when to start getting serious with pursuing stages.Spoiler – the sooner you START, the sooner you'll get good at it.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear from Speak Up to Level Up member, Serena Shoup, a CPA running a virtual bookkeeping business dedicated to helping course creators.
