This week, we're revisiting this sweeping conversation with TEDWomen curator Pat Mitchell, where Close shares the inspiration behind the advocacy group she founded to combat the crisis, underscoring the transformative power of community and the critical need for comprehensive mental health care systems.

0:00 Do you ever feel compelled to rush throughout your day to get more stuff done? What about hustling when you know you don't even need to do that? If you've experienced either of these, you're gonna want to lean in and turn up the volume on today's episode because our guest, Savanna Schiavo is going to help us ditch the hustle and reprogram the rush. 1:09 About Savanna Schiavo 2:25 Savanna’s life before becoming a life and confidence coach. 5:55 Why hustle and rush often creep into our lives and how conditioning, culture, and our internal desires inform these activities. “Hustle and rush are coming from a place of fear, and a place of lack. It's us acting out of fear of not-enoughness essentially.” - Savanna Schiavo 11:06 The correlation between fear of lack and confidence. 11:59 “When we're taking actions from the place of hustle and rush, it's blocking our confidence. It's blocking our creativity, our energy, our ability to flow, our ability to relax and tap into our gifts." - Savanna Schiavo 13:18 “To access more confidence in our business, we have to solve for the fear that's been driving our business. We need to look at the fear that is keeping us from feeling competent.” - Savanna Schiavo 14:45 How business owners can tap into and reprogram fear so it works for us and it becomes something positive versus staying stuck in that negative emotion. 15:32 What do you believe is keeping you going all the time? What are the beliefs that have been driving this behavior for me? 16:10 Common beliefs we don’t even notice that we think are true. 17:19 Question 2: Is this true? 19:30 Question 3: If you didn't believe this, what would be different about you? What you're doing is showing yourself, your subconscious mind, what would be available to you, if you decided to let go of this optional belief, and practice and open up to new beliefs. 22:02 How do we share ourselves, share our messages and attract the right people into our businesses using social media as a tool rather than a place to feel bad about ourselves? 23:11 On attracting the right people by being magnetic. 26:05 Savana’s favorite way to create content 27:10 “I let myself be the really imperfect human I am so people really get to see me. I think that's what is so powerful.” - Savanna Schiavo 29:06 Connect with Savanna 30:36 Grab Savanna’s journaling prompts inside the Arena of Awesome Group and share your biggest takeaways. ---------------------------- Ready to unearth the GOLD in your content?

0:00 Have you ever been scrolling through your newsfeed and you saw a post that made you literally stop your scroll? This happened to me recently, and I wanted to share why I stopped my scroll and why I decided to share the story with you on the podcast today. 1:23 Why Yong has been embracing the good, the bad, and the ugly in business and sharing it with you here on the podcast. 2:15 How learning her Human Design helped Yong share her real self more openly and authentically, even though the fear still rises. 2:55 The lesson Yong continues to lean-into and practice even after 20+ years as an entreprenener. 3:42 Why a recent zoom call with a prospective client didn’t turn out as planned. 5:08 The phrase that was the beginning of the end 6:11 The reason behind why Yong used that particular phrase on a live Q&A turned podcast episode 7:24 Yong’s evidence that proved the opposite of the conclusions of the prospective client 8:28 The reason Yong got defensive on the call and stopped listening to her gut. 9:24 Listen to the first podcast that came about as a result of this conversation at www.yongpratt.com/340 9:46 The post caused Yong to stop her scroll 10:25 Here is what Deb’s post read: "Stop trying to convince people to work with you. Instead, create content that attracts them to you." 11:19 The reason why Yong was trying to convince this client to work with her 11:46 Yong’s former people-pleasing ways 12:09 “It's okay just to be you. In being you, the right people are going to be attracted to you. And the reality is that not everyone will like you.” - Yong Pratt 13:03 “At the end of the day, it's our job to show up authentically, and create content that speaks to those that we want to serve and that also serves us in return. In this life, it's our obligation to speak our truth, to be our real selves, and to amplify everything that makes us awesome even if that means we don't get hired.” - Yong Pratt 13:39 “Those people that need convincing will never become a client of yours, or mine.” - Yong Pratt 14:05 The absolute Yong believes we all need to abolish 15:02 “Convincing someone to do something or invest in someone they don't believe in is a game that you can't win. Focus instead on serving, sharing your gifts and amplifying your awesome, even if not everyone will see or appreciate your awesomeness.” - Yong Pratt 15:40 “In this digital economy, there's no room for hiding. There's no room for being wishy washy. There's no room for accommodating others if that means you have to be someone else to make that happen.” - Yong Pratt 15:58 Just be you. 16:12 “It's time for the world to see you in all your awesome glory. It's time to embrace your you-ness 100%. It's time to appreciate your own gifts, your superpowers, your weird, so that you can truly and authentically Amplify Your Awesome™!” - Yong Pratt 16:34 Yong’s invitation to be a guest on the podcast and who she’s looking to interview. 17:29 If you’d like to be a guest on the podcast, head to www.YongPratt.com/interview 18:16 “Don't forget, it's not your job to convince people to work with you.

As someone that used to help other business owners create copious amounts of content to share on social media, I've learned that hiring out this task without having what I'm going to share with you today on the podcast, is a complete waste of money. 1:22 The inspiration for today’s episode 2:14 Yong’s cautionary tale of outsourcing and how it cost her a ton of time and money 2:59 What most service-based providers don’t do and how it’s a sign to look elsewhere 4:53 How not knowing what you don’t know could cost you more time and money in the long-run 5:12 The FIRST, and most important thing to look for when hiring out social media 6:58 If potential companies or individuals don’t provide THIS, run the other way 8:14 Why Yong doesn’t rely on social media and what she does instead 9:27 Don’t let social media managers talk you into THIS and what always gets overlooked 10:13 Offloading tasks like social media quickly is tempting + how the Myth of More derails so many 11:15 Yong’s 2 recommendations when hiring + how taking back your social media narrative is key to its success 13:12 Recap of the 2 Things you must do before delegating your social media 14:51 If you’re ready to unearth your own Content Goldmine and turn your content into endless supplies of social media content and cash, schedule a complimentary call with her now. 15:28 The 3-Step Framework Yong shared last week is a good starting point or hop on a call with Yong to talk about your content 16:45 “Don't get so wrapped up in offloading your social media that you forget about the vision of your business.” 18:26 Wanna D.I.G. into your own content and turn it into cash and endless content for social media?

0:03 As a transformation maker - a coach, a consultant, a course creator - you're creating an awful lot of content. Let me ask you a very candid question. Does all of that content equal cash for you? 0:23 Until fairly recently, Yong didn’t have a process for monetizing her content. Because she had so much content out there, there was not a lot of reason for people to actually hire her to help them do the things that I was teaching because they could go figure it all out for free. 1:21 What Yong did instead of Gary Vee Style Content Repurposing and how it turned into her signature 3-Step Framework to Turn Content into Cash 3:16 Today's episode topic: Yong’s three-step framework to turn your content [yep, that content you have already created] into cash. 4:14 Things you could do with all that extra cash, especially with summer right around the corner 4:55 Today’s topic isn’t one that’s talked about often which is exactly why you need to tune in and listen or watch the video version inside the Arena of Awesome 5:15 If you haven't listened to the Myth of More [#333] or Content Gold Mining versus the traditional Gary Vee style content repurposing [#334] be sure to do so as they lay the foundation for today’s episode 5:40 How Yong’s Nevada roots influenced and helped shape the idea of Content Gold Mining | The Low-Hanging Fruit for most content creators that has them flocking to Gary Vee Style Content Repurposing 7:36 One of the downfalls of the Gary Vee Content Repurposing Method 9:26 Surface level versus underground gold mining 10:53 The good news for you as a content gold miner 11:41 In order to turn your content into cash, all you have to do is D. I. G.. If you can remember that simple phrase, you literally have a way to monetize your content. 12:21 When you try out this framework in your business, be sure to share your questions, successes, and more with Yong at www.Yong Pratt.com/335 or inside the Arena of Awesome 13:17 Step 1 in the D.I.G. Framework: D = Discover + How to enlist the help of the kids in your life to help you complete this step 13:47 Need ideas on where to find kids and questions to ask to delegate the Discovery Process? Head to www.Yong Pratt.com/335 and ask Yong 14:49 One of the many benefits of joining Yong inside the Arena of Awesome 15:15 What the Discover phase entails | a simple tool you can use for yourself and Yong’s examples “The Discover Phase of the D.I.G. Framework allows you to see ALL your content gathered in one singular place. It’s often the first time my clients have seen just how much content they’ve actually created and it’s often an emotional experience in the best of ways.” - Yong Pratt 18:30 What you’ll likely notice during the Discovery Process 19:21 The reaction Yong’s clients have every.single.time. She takes them through this Discovery Process 20:56 An everyday example of what the Discovery Process is like 21:14 Step 1 in the D.I.G. Framework: I = Ideate and why it’s so exciting 22:15 How Yong used the Ideate Process to publish her first book 24:40 The focus of Yong’s first book 25:54 “I want to simplify the process, because that's one of my superpowers - Simplify the complicated.” - Yong Pratt 27:49 “In the ideation phase of the D.I.G Framework, there's no right or wrong. There's no one size fits all. You are unique. Your content is unique. And when you ideate and use your imagination to create, the possibilities are absolutely endless.” - Yong Pratt 28:22 Two additional ways Yong has used the Ideate Process herself and how you may be able to use it as well 29:27 “Because creation is not linear, you can take content that was once free and turn it into a paid offer that’s organized and delivered in a succinct way to get maximum results for your client.” - Yong Pratt 30:44 Inside Yong’s signature experience, Your Content Goldmine™, her six-month mentorship program coming up soon, you'll see bits and pieces of how she’s been able to ideate on her content.

0:01 I fell for it. Hook, line, and sinker. I was once drawn into the world where MORE became my motto. I wore it like a badge of honor. I was always striving to be more, do more and create more. I stopped listening to the many signs my body was telling me to slow down on my quest for more. Ignoring those signals, landed me in the hospital for test after test, and ultimately being sent home, hooked to a heart monitor for days. The allure of more is a strong force, and few make it out unscathed. In today's episode, I'm going to share how I've made it to the other side of more, and how I can help you do the same...but only if you're ready to embrace a world where less is the new norm? 1:44 Here at Amplify Your Awesome™, we help course creators and coaches ditch content overwhelm, tap into endless supplies of social media content, and make money from the content they've already created. 2:22 Today we're diving into Content Gold Mining versus "Gary Vee" style content repurposing. It's a question I've been getting a lot of lately, so I wanted to, well, set the record straight. 2:37 If you haven't already listened to the last episode number 333. The Myth of More, I highly recommend you press pause and take a listen to that tale before continuing with this episode at www.yongpratt.com/333 2:56 That time when Yong stood firmly in the belief that repurposing content was THE marketing strategy everyone needed to use… 3:21 How Yong used 3 content repurposing automation tools to replace her full-time Virtual Assistant 3:42 When I talk about content repurposing, or the traditional "Gary Vee" style content repurposing the way it's talked about these days, here's what I mean. “Traditional, “Gary Vee” Style Content Repurposing the act of taking a large piece of content and extracting smaller chunks which you can then share.” - Yong Pratt 4:18 Reason #1 for “Gary Vee” Style Content Repurposing Number one: it looks like you're everywhere. And number two: one can more easily establish their expertise by having more of these smaller pieces of content. 5:02 The reason why traditional “Gary Vee” style content repurposing is costing you money. 5:33 What you need in place to get hundreds of pieces of content 6:12 Opportunity #1 Yong experienced by promoting and advocating for the use of 3 content repurposing tools 6:33 Opportunity #2 Yong experienced by promoting and advocating for the use of 3 content repurposing tools 7:10 That time when things started to crumble before Yong’s eyes 7:31 Some reasons why traditional “Gary Vee” style content repurposing didn’t work for my clients 8:15 The Two Myths Yong uses to describe traditional "Gary Vee" style content repurposing 8:41 The weight of Yong’s 1000s upon 1000s of pieces of content and its opportunity cost 9:42 The lesson Yong learned from training Freebie seekers and the money it cost 10:21 That time when Yong has months and months of social media posts pre-scheduled turned into social media dormancy 10:59 What Yong discovered during that social media dormancy 11:50 The tool Yong used to FINALLY be able to see all her beautiful content 12:45 What Yong recommends you do today with all YOUR awesome content 13:26 The patterns that emerged and the questions Yong began to ponder regarding her discovery 14:28 “Instead of focusing on transforming one piece of content into hundreds using the “Gary Vee” method of content repurposing, Content Gold Mining™ offers you many ways to monetize all your beautiful content.” - Yong Pratt 15:05 “Right now, at this moment, you have endless gifts you could offer to the world and get paid for doing so.” - Yong Pratt 15:24 Questions to ponder and experiment with starting today… 15:32 What have you stopped creating content today? For a week? Or even a month? 15:38 What if you reinvested some of that creation time into unearthing the gold from your own content goldmine? 15:47 What if you could turn your massive amounts of content into endless streams of income? 15:55 What if you could tap into that Gold Mine every time you wanted or needed to: Take a family vacation Hire a virtual assistant to help you put systems in place so that you could sell all the content that you want unearth. Hire someone to clean your house, do yard work, prep your meals and so much more so that you could free up time to spend with those you love? What about retire your parents or spouse? And this is just the tip of the iceberg of what you could experience by mining for the gold in your content. 16:25 A testimonial Yong got after a Content Gold Mining Session with 1:1 Client, Susan" "Wow, just wow. Yong certainly knows her stuff and the potency of content, namely your content. She quickly and effortlessly walks you through the value of your current content. She offers amazing options on delivering your hard work and talent found in your content and monetizing them as you offer your prospects irresistible offers. It's an emotional moment, when you realize your content can be massaged into other platforms to help others you must work with Yong." 17:42 “Monetizing content is where traditional style or "Gary Vee" style content repurposing really misses the mark. Its real focus has been on visibility and exposure, neither of which is a guarantee for sales.” - Yong Pratt 18:42 Wouldn't your time be better spent monetizing the content you already have? 18:48 What if it didn't have to be either-or? 18:52 If you could create endless content for social media, and endless streams of income from the content you already have, without the overwhelm? Would you want to know how to do it? 19:06 You my friend absolutely deserve to have both! And the time to make it happen is now. The doors to Your Content Gold Mine™, my six-month mentorship will be opening up soon, and I'd love to be your guide on this amazing adventure. 19:22 What’s included inside Yong’s 6-Month Mentorship 19:46 So my friend… If creating less content appeals to you… If monetizing the content you already have appeals to you… If having documented systems and processes to mine for the gold in your content appeals to you...

0:00 Have you ever been told that in order to get more followers, more subscribers, make more money, or establish your expertise is to create more content and be on more platforms?

I'll be sure to link up a trailer on today's show notes at www.YongPratt.com/333. 2:32 Once upon a time, there was an overwhelmed business owner that stumbled into the magical world of content repurposing and the allure of omnipresence 3:19 What the overwhelmed business owner saw when she looked around in the magical world and revealing her secrets to others 3:47 “In this magical world of content repurposing, messages were multiplied. Content was more than plentiful, and everyone's cup runneth over. And the allure of more was all-consuming.” - Yong Pratt 4:01 Leaving the magical world...just for a little while 4:15 How the MORE-NESS she’d magicked did not fill her money bags as she was lured into believing 4:47 Feeling distraught, she began to wonder where she went wrong. 4:53 How following the rules and creating MORE ultimately led to LESS 5:22 How retreating back into her pre-content repurposing world, helped the overwhelmed business owner discover her real self once again 5:44 The shocking discovery the overwhelmed business owner made 6:20 How the overwhelmed business owner left overwhelmed behind and how she uses the lessons she’s learned to help others overcome their quest for MORE. 8:27 The Brave New World where business owners stand shoulder to shoulder embracing the power of LESS 8:58 A happily ever after that can be yours, too. 9:09 The Myth of More does not have to be your reality. You, too, can embrace a world where doing less and creating less is the true measure of success. 9:22 If you're ready to enter into this brave new world with me and tap into the goldmine, that is your content, I invite you to book a call with me at www.YongPratt.com/333 9:49 Cheers to busting the Myth of More...together!

0:00 Do you ever wish you could pack up your suitcase, travel the world, and run your business from anywhere? Well, that's exactly what our guest today did with her family. Jessica Klasnick was living the American dream. However, she wanted more time with her family. So they sold everything, downsized, and traveled in a teeny, tiny RV as a family of five.

And so I would say the biggest tip, and this is a challenge is to figure out what you want, decide that you want it, and then not worry how you're going to get it. But start taking one step in the direction of that, that that dream or that desire. And just really give up on having to have that control of how do I get there.” 33:27 “Don't let being uncomfortable, be the reason you don't make a change.” 34:49 Wanna watch the VIDEO version of this episode and ask Jessica your questions?

0:00 Discover the reasons behind our color rebrand and why it’s happening inside my Facebook Community, Arena of Awesome 2:10 Meet today’s guest, Visibility and Publicity Expert, Michelle Lewis. 2:53 The surprising results from digging into color psychology inside my FB Group 3:22 “I don't think color psychology is focused on enough in our industry. Things are so revolved around us being told to choose the expression of ourselves in our brand, especially with our color and this conversation is to totally contradict that.” 4:05 Michelle’s pre-business life in Hollywood 5:22 The two sides to Hollywood, negativity, and believing the voices around us 7:46 Why and how Michelle stopped listening to the voices outside herself that were dragging her down and shattering the Glass Dome “I believe we've built a dome around ourselves with other people's thoughts, opinions, and negative statements. You really have to have the bravery to break down that dome and build something from the ground up. It's not going to be easy. It's about having the inner confidence to not care anymore what other people have to say or what their opinion of you is because you not only value yourself but your health too much.” 10:20 Working with her hubby and behind the scenes on how they met 11:17 How business owners can embrace color and the psychology behind color to help us stand out and be more visible “I think that color is such an important part, if not one of the most important parts of the visual brand.” “Color psychology is a really powerful strategy so that you can attract the right people.” 12:52 Returning to her film degree background, and natural medicine, and color frequency “What helped me understand color was having a brand that wasn't working and knowing that I had good things to offer. So it had to be something in the branding or in the marketing strategy.” “We have this delusion that our brand color is about us. It's supposed to be about the ideal client.” 14:40 Why Michelle chose blue as her primary brand color and why you may want to as well 16:56 The psychology of yellow (the new primary brand color here at Amplify Your Awesome™) and how Yong’s 14-year old created a mood board to reflect the new colors 19:31 What’s your perfect color?

I don't have to follow the rules. When I break the rules and do things my own way and show up as my goofy, weird self, it's actually better because people get to see the real me” 7:00 How Yong’s self-doubt nearly ended her entrepreneurial dreams “One of my greatest gifts to all of you is to make you look good.” 8:31 About the Arena of Awesome “As business owners, we need to be confident enough to stand in that center stage. In the spotlight, sharing our gifts. Sharing our weirdness, so that people who need us are going to be able to find us when they are looking. It's about that exchange of energy. About knowing that you're putting your best foot forward and that we can move forward together.” 9:47 The explosion of podcasting and why having your own can be a gift for others 10:09 Reasons why Yong loves podcasting “What if you and your business are able to provide the opportunity for other people to binge listen to you to help them move closer to working with you.

It's a powerful tool to get your message out to the masses, especially because it is portable.” 12:50 How Leaving breaking your long content into little nuggets, breadcrumbs [aka repurposing] can help more people discover your awesomeness 13:41 Business owners are literally sitting on a goldmine of content. I'm here, as the Chief Amplifier of Awesomeness, to help you mine for the gold in your content through systems, through automation, through repurposing.” “If we can spin and transform our content into other assets, it gives people diverse ways to learn from us and that’s a win-win in my book for sure.” 15:38 How acres of diamonds are like your content goldmine “You literally are sitting on this goldmine of content. All you need is to create a system and a path for you and your business to mine for that gold in a way that's going to support you and your clients.” 16:24 Why the idea of mining for the gold in your content is so near and dear to Yong “You have this huge mountain of content. It's massive. It's not just one piece, it's your literal body of work in your business. It’s time to mine for the gold that already exists in your content.” 19:00 “For me, 2021 is all about helping YOU mine for the gold in YOUR content.” 20:18 A special gift for you coming on St. Patty’s day and why that day is significant to its release 21:12 “Human Design has impacted my business in really profound ways. In ways I've never considered, like using it to work with my clients.” 21:56 “Human Design helps us understand our innate gifts so that when we're mining for the gold in our content, we can use our strengths to really amplify all of our awesomeness.” 25:09 “Season 5 of the podcast exists to showcase the myriad of ways you can build your business. It’s not about building your business following someone else’s blueprint, following someone else’s path to success. It’s about hearing stories from and being inspired by entrepreneurs across the globe building businesses around everything that makes them awesome.” 26:58 Come over to the Arena of Awesome and tell me how I can support you as you take to center stage to Amplify Your Awesome™!

0:00 Turn up the volume and grab a pen. Today we’re diving into intention, energy, alignment, serendipity, and of course, Human Design. Continue the discussion at www.YongPratt.com/317 2:12 Meet Uma Girish a spiritual mentor for women who are ready to find their life purpose. She helps them to hone in on their dreams so that they can live the next chapter of life with passion, purpose, and joy. 3:23 Celebrating and planning for success in the new year Uma-style Questions to guide you: What do I want to call in this year? Who do I want to be? How do I want to show up? What's the energy with which I'm going to meet this year? 5:00 The wholeness of life. Intention versus goals and why Uma prefers the former 7:11 How to set intentions with the right energy. “The energy of fear drives away the energy that love always draws in.” - Uma Girish 9:50 Shifting energy and the miracles that can happen when you do. “I am not the brilliant coach or mentor who is saying all the wonderful things and giving all the wonderful insights. I'm just being a channel for the divine to come through me to flow through me.” 11:55 “The best thing you can is to get out of your own way and just let that universal energy pour through you.” 13:35 Working hard and struggling with deservingness verus letting go and embracing simple and easy. How do you define alignment and how do you use them. They're your intention. Your energy to get to alignment. 15:03 Alignment through Human Design “When things are flowing, when you feel lit up, when all the doors that you want open up effortlessly, and you get the thing you desire, you know, you're in alignment. You're satisfied, you're lit up, you're having fun, you're enjoying the thing you're doing”. If energy and intention are in place, alignment is a natural result, you can't go wrong.” Uma Girish 18:21 “When we are in alignment, the most amazing synchronicities and serendipities happen.” “Imagination gets a bad rap but imagination is a gift from the divine, to help us live in that space of alignment.” 23:41 Applauding her parents for their encouragement to write, speak, and tell stories 25:06 Encouraging our kids to explore and lean into their gifts Uma Girish 25:55 “I believe a lot in synchronicity and serendipity. I know when something appears three to four times in my life, I'm meant to pay attention to it.” How Uma discovered her Human Design and how it’s helped her to understand her gifts as a Projector [same as Yong]. And letting go of the shame around not being a doer and living into her role as a guide. 29:04 How being a Projector has changed the way Uma works in her business and how she serves others The way Uma now creates her social media content as a role model 35:26 Staying in your own lane and finding your Soul Purpose through Human Design “You are your purpose. You don't have to find it”. “We think if we have someone else’s map we’ll be successful. But we are failing. And the reason we are failing is that someone else’s map is not going to guarantee our success. We have our own map and that's what Human Design shows us.” 39:30 Differentiating between our conditioning versus our human design 42:01 Who are you? What makes you tick? What do you dream about? What are the longings of your heart? How do you want your life to be? You’ll find this and more in Uma’s new program, Meet Your True Self launching in January 2021 44:02 “When you own your life purpose, anything that you invest in you, you are in that seat and cultivating that seed of your purpose. So how can that ever be wrong?” “When you spend money on improving yourself, on expanding your knowledge, on expanding your energy, on learning a new skill, it will always, always, always multiply. It has a multiplier effect and it serves the world. It's not only an investment in yourself, it's an investment in everyone you touch.” 45:35 Connecting with Uma on Planet Internet https://umagirish.com https://www.instagram.com/umamentor/ https://www.facebook.com/umawrites/ 46:30 Uma’s advice on building a business based on the real you: “Everything that you are. Everything that you stand for. Everything that you believe in. Everything that matters to you, is what will impact your business. So you are a reflection of your business. So it's really important to get clear on your values.” 49:11 Come over to today’s show notes and connect with Uma, share your biggest takeaways or favorite Uma-ism at www.YongPratt.com/317 49:54 Next week, you’ll meet Renee Hribar, Yong’s personal sales coach Hosted on Acast.

Do the people around you ask questions about something that comes easily to you? [0:17] If so, you'll definitely want to stick around as we dive into this final part of our recession-proofing your business miniseries. Today, we're talking about teaching what you know to others, and how it can quickly become a profit center in your business. [1:13] Over the past five episodes, we've been building up to today's lesson. We've been exploring ways to use what you already have to build a stronger business. While this series was created to inspire and give you tons of ways to diversify your business during the pandemic since so many of you had to do business differently, the ideas we've talked about are absolutely evergreen. [2:04] If you’ve missed any of the episodes in this series you can find them all at www.yongpratt.com/281. [2:19] What does teaching what you know really mean? [2:23] Well, at its most basic teaching what you know, really means one of two things. The first is that you can turn a mess you've had in your life into your message, as my mentor Dean grazioso, he would say, let me give you an example. [2:40] #1: Turning your mess into your message and an example of how Yong did this very thing to serve and help more parents [5:45] What mess could you turn into your message?

More examples of how Yong has used this idea in many ways during her 20+ years as an entrepreneur. [7:36] What specialized knowledge that you have that you could share with someone today? Maybe it's a special gift. Maybe it's a talent, or even a hobby. It could even be something that comes easily to you that people ask you about all ready. Come and share what you could teach at www.yongpratt.com/281 [7:57] Why this miniseries, Recession-proofing your business was created for you [9:04] Come on over to today's show notes at www.yongpratt.com/281 and share your unique gifts and talents. Let's have a conversation about what lights you up and what you could teach to others today. What's calling to you right now? What is it that you could take from inside of yourself and teach others to help them on their journeys? [9:33] Now you know what teaching what you know means and how you can start doing it today, let's dive in to the monetary reasons why you might want to explore this idea. [10:32] What online education stats and trends mean for you and your business. [11:20] Stay tuned in the coming weeks as Yong will be sharing something brand new that will help you to turn what you already know and turn your mess into a message quickly and easily, even if you're starting from scratch.

[0:00] Welcome to this bonus episode of The Amplify your awesome podcast. This episode was really inspired by a lot of conversations that I've had lately, with parents and other entrepreneurs, really getting together to brainstorm ways we can show up and serve at a higher level when people need us most. [0:21] This episode is focused on our kids, and empowering them and equipping them with skills that are really techie, nerdy a little bit, but skills nonetheless that they can start to explore these days, especially because there's an outpouring from the greater community at large, with free access to tools that students can create. [1:18] How do we empower our kids and help them to start telling their own story about what life is like for them as a kid right now? [1:33] What if our kids could start recording their own stories and documenting their reality for future generations? [1:54] Connect with Yong on IG or FB [3:02] Today we’re diving into helping our kiddos discover how to use technology in a positive way, help you out in your current business, or maybe even start to dream up a new business of your own. [5:08] Grab the Alone Together Toolkit - a list of resources for you and your family at www.yongpratt.com/alonetogether [7:56] Be sure you’re subscribed to the podcast so you get this and other bonus episodes delivered straight to you [8:35] Getting the most out of your content starts with strategy and systems [9:49] The 1x30 Content Formula [10:08] Grab the Alone Together Resources at www.yongpratt.com/alonetogether and get your kiddos started with ideas and skills they can use to help you [11:18] Starting the adventure with your kiddos begins with conversations and finding out what lights them up. [12:35 ] The backstory of how Yong’s daughters got started in her business [14:44] Examples of what Yong’s kiddos have created for her business and others’ [15:18] Since kids are digital natives, it makes sense for us to include them in those parts of our business [15:45] It’s time to raise creators - kids who can think outside the box kids who see opportunities kids who have big dreams. And we can start fostering that right now, at this time. [16:15] Wouldn't it be better if we equipped and empowered them now to start using these [digital] tools, when they have access to them? When you're there to look over their shoulder to make sure they're heading in the right direction? Wouldn't that be better than letting them watch TV mindlessly four hours a day? [17:03] Let's let our kids explore together. Let's let them create and show one another what they've discovered and what they're doing and let them step up to the role of teacher. Because how often do kids get to do that every day, when they can learn a skill, and they can show someone else how to do it, their mastery of that skill increases exponentially. And that's the best learning there is. [18:21] Let’s continue this conversation at www.yongpratt.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…
