How do you achieve work-life balance as a mom with 2 baby boys under 5? The answer is simple: 

I DON’T.

Personally, I believe balance is bullshit. 

Instead, I create systems and structures that allow the “orchestra” of all the “sections” of my life - work, kids, love, hobbies, personal time, friends - to harmonize.

And just like any orchestra…

Sure, sometimes some sections might be a little out of tune. 

That’s why this episode is a tune-up to generate more harmony and alignment in your life as you work 2 full-time jobs: being a business owner and being a mama.

If you’re a working mom or mompreneur and have struggled with work-life balance too, or if you’ve felt the deep-seated pangs of mom-guilt stirring in you as you battle to achieve this state of “balance” then, Queen, this episode is for you.

How to Be a GREAT Guest on a Podcast

If you’re going to be a guest on a podcast, then decide to be a GREAT one! Because the ripple effect one podcast interview can have on your business can be transformative. 

Why be a guest on a podcast? Well, after appearing on over 150+ episodes as a guest on other people’s podcasts, I've found guesting on podcasting to be one of the most powerful + profitable sources of lead generation for a business. And my Communication Queens students have as well!

Being a great guest on a podcast doesn’t require tons of prep or work on your part, but in order to be a good guest on a podcast, whether you’re recording virtually, remotely, or collaborating in person, there are a few things you need to know to have an epic interview.

(And no, I don’t just mean having the right podcast microphone.)

In this video, I show you the 3 things you need to do in podcast interviews and to have your interview stand out to be as great as...

Preparing for a Podcast Interview

(What You MUST Know as a Guest!)

Have you ever felt unprepared going on someone else’s podcast as a podcast guest? Maybe you’ve prepared for a podcast interview, but then when it came to the interview you felt like you got stuck in your head with all your preparation.

In this video, I show you how to be a great guest on a podcast, so that your podcast interview stands out and serves the podcaster’s audience best. 

After appearing on over 150+ episodes as a podcast guest on other people’s podcasts and after having done over 80+ podcast interviews, I break down the best interview preparation in this podcast tutorial, so that you feel prepared for your podcast interview, showcase your brand in the best light, and are a good podcast guest on someone else’s podcast so you get referred to do even MORE podcast interviews!!

That is the power of using guesting on other people’s podcasts as a lead generation strategy...

I’ll be honest. I hate it when people waste my time. 

Back in my showbiz days, when an actor would show up on set, not knowing his lines…or sometimes what scene we were shooting…it was sooooo annoying, not to mention, unprofessional and downright.

Here’s the thing I’ve noticed having coached leaders for the past 5 years…

Successful leaders, whether you’re an actor, influencer, professional speaker, a doctor, an entrepreneur, or an author, they don’t just “wing it.” 

They prepare and they practice. 

And even when they say they “wing it,” or “just show up” I guarantee that there is a process that either they practice or their team has in place that makes them appear to be “winging it,” when really…

They’ve spent countless hours practicing their craft, so much so that how they do what they do is completely unconscious to them.

They’ve reached the stage of...

I’ll admit, it’s been a while since I’ve been in proper traffic. Sure, Aussies complain that they have traffic…ha!! 

It’s nothing compared to being bumper to bumper on the 405 backed up for MILES because of a traffic accident in Los Angeles. 

Most people, when stuck in traffic resort to complaining, vegging out to a podcast, or, if you’re in the La La Land movie ensemble, dancing on top of your hoods…I joke…I wish!

After spending 20 minutes barely inching ahead on the 5 on the drive home, there’s that human desire to look at what caused the delay.

Whether you’re one of those who likes to look for bodies (it’s okay, you probably also like murder podcasts…we’re not judging)…

Or your the sympathetic soul saying the Hail Mary as you pass the ambulance…

What I’ve noticed after over 30 years of living in Los Angeles and seeing hundreds of traffic accidents, including one I saw...

No one will give you a participation trophy for life.

You aren’t going to get all your followers checking in on you to see how you’re doing after a devastating loss.

Sure you may get a few. Maybe even a few hundred.

But after a while, the struggles and challenges and pain you experienced will be left to be handled, solely, by you and you alone.

No matter how desperately you want to be acknowledged for what you’ve gone through.

No matter how much you want to be recognized for how far you’ve come.

Ultimately…

No one will celebrate that journey if you are not out there beating yourself own goddamn drum, praising and chanting your stories into the culture of your community to serve those who are currently going through what you have gone through.

It is 100000% up to you to use those experiences to serve.

Because through the grief of what was, your ego will pop up 10,000 times begging to be recognized for its solitary struggle.

That’s the ego’s...

Vibe of the day: I’m going to put out so much amazing good into this world, from the content I produce to the presence I bring to the people I am blessed to serve, to the connections I’m going to make, to the challenges I’m going to allow myself to rise courageously into, that I will be a beacon of love, serving the vibration of the planet to raise it into greater levels of consciousness, awareness, and peace. 

Fear doesn’t stop a war. Love does. 

With all the chaos going on in the world right now, the BEST thing you can do for your soul is focusing on how YOU can operate and show up with more love, more joy, and be of more service to others, adding more value to this world.

There are dark forces at work that want to tear humanity down to fear. 

They want you to believe you’re not powerful enough to stop something so massive.

But you are.

You are the Universe in human form.

You get to choose what you subscribe to, what messaging,...

There’s no perfect handbook anywhere for starting, running, growing your empire. This isn’t taught in schools - in fact, you’re kind of conditioned to fail at it. (But that’s another story for a different day.)

This is why, like a princess on her rise to rule and lead a country, you, as a business owner, MUST surround yourself with wise counsel.

Meaning, people who have done the thing before.
Mentors who have gone before you.
Coaches who can guide you.
Friends and colleagues who are going for the same big dreams.

Think about it, from the moment a princess or prince is born, they are being trained and groomed to rule by mentors, guides, coaches, in every area of their life.

Typically, the current monarch shares and shows them the mistakes, pitfalls, and possibilities for err along the way to train her for when she finally takes the throne.

So where’s your counsel?

The greatest gift you can give yourself as an entrepreneur is to learn from other...

DON'T Start Your Own Podcast Until You Do THIS!!!

Looking to start your own podcast in 2022 for your business? One of the biggest mistakes I’ve seen business owners make is starting a podcast for their business without the ONE thing that would make their podcast a successful and profitable tool.

Hey, I did it too! In 2019, I started my own podcast, The Princess and the B. I loved creating the content and connecting with my listeners. While having my own podcast helped deepen the relationships with my existing community, I wasn’t seeing it bring in NEW customers to my business. That’s when I realized THIS…

Whether you’re a new business owner or you’ve been an entrepreneur for a while, if looking to start a podcast and make money from that podcast, watch this video BEFORE you start your own podcast in 2022 so that when you start your podcast it will be a radical success!

Watch this video to know how to start your podcast and make money.

Have you ever wanted to start your own interview-based podcast? I did. In fact, I sat on the idea of launching The Princess and the B for…get this…2 years!! 

I didn’t have the infrastructure or team to support back in 2017. 

But by 2019, I had enough internal systems, financial revenue rolling in, and a small team of two for my private client coaching, so when it came to podcasting, I knew that I then had the support to start an interview-based podcast.

As The Princess and the B podcast grew over the next 3 months, I started to get bogged down with requests for interviews, as well as aaaaaalll the things that coincide with having a podcast - the production, distribution, marketing, booking guests. 

It gets to be a lot.

My solution: automate + delegate EVERYTHING. 

Well, everything that was NOT in my Zone of Genius.

If there is one of my skill sets as a Subconscious Strategist that is 100% in my Zone of Genius, is that I can...
