I hired all the wrong people in my business in the first few years. I learnt the hard way what to do and what not to do. The truth is - leading people can be hard in the constructs of a business that wasn’t created for you. And when we take these principles, the ones we’ve known in another career, we just get more of what we don’t want. When you realise that your own business is a different environment born from your own vision - you see that the possibility of building a dream team is real. It all starts with the vision you have for your business. It’s the WHO not the HOW that makes the vision come to life. But how do you even start? In this episode of the podcast we explore this and map out a step by step plan to creating a team that truly supports you in your business.

Ep 102: Taking The Leap and Hiring Your First Team Member

Hiring your first employee can be a terrifying endeavor. All types of questions come up. Imposter syndrome might rear its ugly head. Questions about leadership and finances and time and priorities and ... all the things can come into question. But hiring and building you team is the key to gaining back the freedom in your business. It's a stepping back to spring forward. Training and going slower in training, in order to never have to do that task again. Woop woop! Walking us through the 101 of hiring today is leading expert Jessica Pierce. Jessica is the CEO and Founder of Career Connectors. A NFP linking job seekers with resources and hiring companies - to help them shorten the hiring window and step into their dream job role.

What does it mean to be a mumstyle CEO? A ‘lifestyle’ CEO conjures up images of laptops on the beach, or by the pool. For most of us though, that’s fun for a week - but not for a year - or forever. Especially with families, and other ambitions outside of work and family life. So no - lifestyle CEO is not the goal. We’re going after what we want #mumstyle. Let’s do it! Tune into this week’s episode of the podcast.

What do you feel when I say the words 'creativity' and 'business'? Personally, in the past when I heard about creativity being used in business, it felt like 2 things that were incompatible. My frame of reference was the industry I worked in, vocational education compliance, and the 2 seemed like oil and water. I was wrong. And more and more, as I've built my own business, I've realised how vital a skill creativity actually is. In a space where we can have a business FB page up and running in about 2 mins flat, creativity is not a luxury. We need to stand out. To shine. To be seen and innovate and to give our clients a beautiful experience. None of that happens without creativity. Not only that, but as the world moves towards more AI, creativity is a human element that cannot be replaced. So how can we cultivate creativity? How do we then hone that skill? In this episode of the Mumstyle Business Show 'Creative Power' I interviewed Jo Simpson. Join us for a deep conversation about creativity, discipline, and getting still.
