IDEA Track

Conquer Your Fears With Hypnotic Confidence

A self-made entrepreneur can face many situations where he or she may face taking calculated risks and uncertainty. Mastering one's mindset and learning to leverage mental toughness, resiliency, and fearlessness is crucial on the path of the entrepreneur. In this session, we will explore new ways of overcoming fears and lack of confidence using principles of NLP and Self Hypnosis. Participants will learn mindset strategies to overcome limiting beliefs and negative thought patterns that they can immediately implement, and that will allow their entrepreneurial journey to blossom and flourish.

How to Create a Hell Yes! Offer that Sells Itself

The strength of your offer determines the success of your business. If you’re someone who wants to make plenty of money serving clients that you love and have whitespace for downtime – you need a strong offer. During this session we’re going to break down our proven system to help you create your HELL YES! offer and show you how to make it more appealing so it calls in your ideal clients, streamlines the delivery, and sells itself so you can easily scale and optimize your business.

Power of Storytelling to Connect with Your Customer

As an entrepreneur, it's vital to connect with your customer beyond your product or service offering. Most customers would choose a product or service if they feel connected with the vision of the company or the values of the founders. Until you create a consumer brand, your story will connect your customers to your product or service. This session will have a live exercise with participants to write their stories and improve their story telling aspect of it.

Powerful Decisions + Long Game Results

As an entrepreneur, you are being called to constantly move through discomfort, in order to grow your entrepreneurial self-concept and your business. You are also called to overcome indecision, doubt, judgment, fear, and the spiral that your human brain loves to remain stuck in. You don't have time to keep rolling around in the muck. You are going to get clear, feel confident, and show up convicted when you are plugged back into the power of inspired, empowered decision-making. When you access the tangible and intangible business coaching tools, you will be propelled into actions that yield prosperous outcomes; emotional and financial wealth, freedom, and joy.

Public Speaking: The Business Game-Changer

What does it take to become a thought leader? To be seen as the expert or the authority in your field? What will it take to get your business to the next level? Often, nothing more than the willingness to speak up and share your thoughts and experiences in public. In this session we will teach you:

- Why public speaking is so important, how to brand yourself for speaking and how to find and secure gigs. You'll also learn why comfort with public speaking is so important (and how to get comfortable, even if you usually get nervous.) 

- Understand why women are at a disadvantage when it comes to securing speaking opportunities and how to work around those obstacles. 

- Discover how to brand yourself for public speaking
- Find out how to identify speaking opportunities and secure the gig 

- Learn how to leverage your speaking for career and business benefits

Set Your Surroundings Up for Success

Come learn about the ways your environment influences you and your financial potential. You’ll get a new empowering perspective of the space you’re in and how it influences your success and financial potential. You’ll leave inspired to be more intentional about your home and work spaces, and making sure they are set up to help you succeed and prosper in life and business.

Building a Brand That Will Last: Embracing DEI from the Start

DEI has been a hot topic over the last couple of years and many businesses have made the change to be more inclusive. What happened if brands didn’t wait until it was the “right thing to do” to promote diversity and inclusion? What if it was intentional from the beginning?

The goal of this session is to introduce new ways of weaving DEI initiatives into the core strategy of the business long before entrepreneurs launch their brands. Kristie Raymond, owner of HumanKind Casting, will teach attendees ways their brand can show up to the world more authentically and make everyone feel welcome and connected along the way.

Increase Your Visibility and Connect with New Audiences

Have you ever been called “The best-kept secret?” It might seem like a compliment, but it’s not the best growth strategy! If people who need your message, products, and services can’t find you, how can they work with you? You have a gift! People need what you offer and it's time to be seen. Enter visibility. As professionals, and business owners, we hear a lot about the importance of “visibility.” It keeps you top-of-mind and connects you to collaborators and potential clients. In a nutshell, visibility can change your life and business. In this workshop, we will touch on four out-of-the-box ways to increase your visibility and connect with new audiences! We'll bust some of the myths of visibility and help you choose where you feel best showing up and getting visible. This workshop is ideal for brick-and-mortar business owners, entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, coaches, and consultants who are ready to get their message out effectively across multiple platforms.

During this breakout session, social entrepreneurs and service providers will learn how to connect the dots in their business with a distinct and disruptive strategy that transcends traditional marketing tactics, turning them into transformational thought leaders.

Sales for People Who Hate Selling

Do you love what you do but hate selling? Perhaps you get to the end of your workday and literally everything else is done other than the sales calls you *promised* yourself you’d get to today. If this sounds like you, I am here to help! The hard facts are that unless people are swarming to buy from you or you have the luxury of outsourcing, in order to succeed in business you need to be able to sell. This session will focus not just on reframing selling in a way where it becomes positive for you, but also brings you practical tips and tricks to help you take consistent action and make those sales calls. As a business coach and former sales and marketing director of the software company I co-founded, I’ve had to help others (and myself!) successfully work through call reluctance issues and I look forward to sharing what I’ve learned to support you!
