What really happened after I sold my business after 4 years away

Welcome to the very first episode of the brand NEW Inside Out Entrepreneur® Podcast. This episode has been a VERY long time coming due to me taking 4 years on 'sabbatical' after I sold my last business. During those 4 years, so many people reached out to ask me if I was ok, when I was returning, if I would bring the old podcast back or start a new one and what was happening in my world, that it felt only right to bring you all up to speed with what REALLY happened when I took a long break.

This episode is a little longer than most future episodes (those will mostly be under 30 mins) because I go deep into the reasons behind my break, what has changed, why I have changed and why the future will be different for me.

I am super nervous to share all of this but I am doing so because it felt right. And because I genuinely believe that by sharing, I can help other female entrepreneurs who might find themselves in the same position, or who might find that something in my life connects to something in yours.  

So, if you are curious about what really happened and how things will change going forward for those who follow me, my podcasts and my programs, then don't miss this episode! 

Episode Summary

  • The backstory to why I sold my business after 10 years as a pioneer and leader in my industry.
  • Why I KNEW I had to sell that business. 
  • What I realised only AFTER I had sold that business and why this realisation changed absolutely everything. 
  • What I learnt about female leaders, entrepreneurship and self leadership
  • The role of conditioning for most females including leaders, high achievers and entrepreneurs. 
  • What is coming in the future and how this will help you as a female entrepreneur, leader, high achiever or business owner. 

If you want to improve your life and your business from the inside out®, you don't want to miss this episode. I dive deep into areas I have never spoken about before so you can see the full picture and better understand why I knew things had to change. You might specifically be interested in this episode if: 

  • You often find yourself overachieving or overworking in your business. 
  • You have noticed you are a bit of a controller in your life, business, or family. 
  • You are really hard on yourself and push yourself to the absolute max.
  • Your are constantly trying to keep other people happy and you aren't sure why or how to stop. 
  • You are just super curious about why I disappeared off the face of the earth!  
  • You are ready to step up to the next level in your business and how you run things. 
  • You believe in women supporting women to rise. 

During this episode I talk about my discovery of something I call Emotional Survival Patterns®. These are patterns I recognised as parts of my entrepreneurial and day to day life. If you are curious about whether you might have ESPs and which they might be, you can take my quiz below.
