The Motivated Mompreneur Podcast - Passion into Profit

Today I share my thoughts and experience on keeping God at the center of business and showing up as authentically as you can with your faith. Make sure to catch up on Episode 1 - This Way To A Fulfilled Life if you need more information about how knowing your values can help you take the leap to share your faith more freely in your business. Follow me on Instagram - @TheMotivatedMompreneur and let me know what you thought of the episode.

Are you dreaming about leaving corporate and becoming your own boss? I've been there and today I'm sharing my story of how I went from corporate drone to a motivated mompreneur.  No corporate dropout story is the same but it's critical that we share the REAL story and not the dolled-up version many put out there for the world to hear. I'm sharing the good, the bad and the ugly... - How I financially prepared to leave corporate - What happened when I gave up and tried to go back - How long it took to find freedom, flexibility and fulfillment I want to know more about you and your story so shoot me a message over on Instagram @TheMotivatedMompreneur and tell me where you are in your corporate dropout journey.

One day, when the time comes and you look back on your life, what do you want the highlight reel to show?  If that day was tomorrow would you be happy with what you see? Our core values are principles we choose to live our life by - they are the things that matter most to us.  But it is so easy to get swept away by the rat race of working mom life and without even being aware you're living a life dictated by someone else's values.  Ain't no mama got time for that!   In this episode I break down: - What values actually are? - What it feels like when we don't know our values or we're not living by them? - Why it's important to live your life in alignment with your values (especially when you're leaving your 9-5 to build a business) - How I'm going through my own 30 day values challenge to see if all this is really true!!

Season 2 of the Motivated Mompreneur Podcast is right around the corner.  Here's what you can look forward to... How knowing your values can make or break your entrepreneurial dreams My personal corporate drop-out story (and those from others like us) Keeping God at the center of an entrepreneurial life How to find your voice and use it! Nicheing down - why?!?! Stop wasting your time and start your biz already! Healing from corporate trauma Getting ready for failure And much more! Make sure to subscribe to this podcast and click here to follow Hillary Bennett, The Motivated Mompreneur on Instagram.

The key to unlocking fulfillment isn't more money, or being more productive, or getting more sleep (although yeah...that could help!) Understanding your values is the foundation of fulfillment, joy and building a business that you love.  Give this episode a listen to learn more about why and click this ->link

**Trigger warning: this podcast includes discussion about the experience of rape victims.  Please use care if you are working through healing from a similar trauma** Today I sit down with author, podcaster and intuitive business coach Sarah Walton to talk about what it means to cultivate self-trust and how it can be a game changer for your business.  Questions to ask yourself: 1. What are my talents? 2. What is my expertise? (we are all experts in something!) 3. What are my experiences? You are enough mama - and we need you to share your gifts with the world!!

People often ask me "How can I get started with email marketing when I don't really have extra capacity or free time?" and I always say that all you need to get started is the minimum viable email marketing plan.  In other words, the bare minimum to get the benefits of email marketing for your business. Without email marketing your are left fighting the algorithm to build know, like and trust with your clients and battling with a system that makes it hard for your ideal client to leave the platform to buy from you.  Without email marking it's just harder to grow your business and turn passive scrollers into buyers. We'll talk about:  - Whether or not you actually need a website - The bare minimum you need to get all the benefits of email marketing - Smart strategies regarding lead magnets, opt in forms, welcome sequences and newsletters.
