Avsnitt

  • In this cheeky little podcast episode of ours, we have a good old chinwag about the pearls of wisdom Siobhan Fisher dropped on us about of what sets apart building a gaggle of followers from nurturing a proper community for those plucky small businesses.

    We're having a chat about how a community is all about getting stuck in and having a proper back-and-forth, while an audience is more about sitting back and soaking it all in, using social media as an example. And blimey, do we get into a spirited debate about the need to create a cosy nook where all sorts of views can have a exchange ideas. We're also taking a trip down memory lane, sharing our own little love stories with brands – like Pippa's soft spot for Lucy & Yak.

  • In this podcast episode, Pippa talks with Kathleen Oh, an integration coach who works with individuals in integrating different parts of themselves, often through the use of psychedelic drugs and internal family systems (IFS). Kathleen talks about her journey and how she got into this field of work. She also discusses how her own personal experience of failure led her to question the mindset narrative that is often used in the coaching industry. Kathleen believes that the coaching industry tends to place too much emphasis on mindset without acknowledging the systemic factors that can impact an individual's success. She emphasises the need to question the rules and challenge the existing mindset narrative.

    About Kathleen
    Kathleen Oh (she/her) is a Coach, writer, and safe drug use advocate and educator specialising in psychedelic integration. She offers coaching services focusing on the continued care and well-being of clients from high-stress, high-performance careers as the center of their work. She practices trauma-informed and integrative, positive psychology, solution-focused coaching and Internal Family Systems Informed approaches informed by an anti-oppressive framework. Kathleen openly practices as a learner and student of cultic studies. She is continuing to decondition and recover from systems of cultic indoctrination. This combination of skills is uncommon in coaching communities.

  • This week Lucy flies solo (we know 😬 deep breath folks) and discusses some of the things that folks wished they knew when they started their podcasts. We asked our community for help with this one so a big thank you to everyone who contributed their stories and lessons they'd learned journeying into this weird and wonderful world.

    Lucy references a lot of things in this episode so be sure to check out Episode 34 and Episode 35 before diving in to this episode if you haven't already. They also mention Launching a Whole-Ass Podcast which you can get free here and is packed with some really handy information about...you guessed it, launching a podcast.

    On top of all that Lucy waxes lyrical about their deep love of Descript, the editing software we use to edit our own podcast. You can find out more about Descript and grab it here (full disclosure it is our affiliate link but if you've listened to any of our recent episodes you'll know how much we really flipping love it).

  • On this week's episode we talk hero content, content pyramids, AI, Indiana Jones, robot uprisings and raindrops - it wouldn't be a Disobedient Business Podcast episode without a few segues in there now would it?

    Furthering our conversation last week about alllllll the reasons why you might want to start a podcast, we look at how that podcast can help your content strategy and potentially make life a whole lot easier. You can see a handy graphic beautifully made by someone who is not us here.

    We then go one further and discuss how AI tools such as Chat GPT can make that content repurposing piece even easier!

  • In this episode Lucy and Pippa pontificate on podcasts; do you want one, "should" you want one, why might you want one?

    It nicely brings together in a warm and embracing hug a lot of the topics we've discussed recently including; being yourself to attract your 'ideal client', thought leadership, politics, having a voice and how you like to show up in your business and engage with your audience.

    Is starting a podcast on your 2023 vision board? Is podcasting something you've been curious about but terrified of? Well, hopefully this episode goes some way to helping you edge ever closer to making that move.

  • Pippa talks to Deanna Seymour about fixed grids, 9 grids, 12 grids, grid magazines... we're still not sure exactly what to call them.

    This year, we at The Disobedient Business® Co. finally got our fixed grid up and running as well as reorganising our Highlights on Instagram and we are loving it!

    WTF is a fixed grid? It's where you generally archive all your old IG grid posts and in their place put a gorgeous 3x3 or 3x4 grid that is a catchy and eye grabbing story about who you are, what you do and how you work with people.

    It's certainly not for everyone, artists might like to regularly post new works for example. But if your services stay pretty similar and you find creating for your content each week an absolute hassle then this could be 'the way'. (Yes, it might be a Mandalorian reference because yes, we are definitely on the Pedro Pascal side of TikTok 😬).

    It was an absolute treat to talk with Deanna and we hope you love the episode! Let us and Deanna know your thoughts by sneaking on in to the ol' DMs.

    About Deanna
    Digital Marketing Strategist and host of the podcast, Eff That: Breaking the Rules of Online Business, Deanna Seymour knows the power of creativity, fun, and lettin' your freak flag fly when it comes to marketing your business.
    Whether she’s hosting an online coworking sesh or helping a client get over their fear of being on camera, Deanna uses humor and empathy to build a community that helps people feel seen, heard, and ultimately more comfortable in their own skin so they can have more fun getting in front of their perfect-fit clients.
    When she’s not working with clients, she’s probably callin’ out sleazy marketing tactics, hangin’ with her fam, or sneaking in some crappy reality tv!

  • In this episode Pippa talks to Katie Skelton about the weird and wonderful world of LinkedIn.

    Pippa ditched LinkedIn years ago and the idea of returning gives her the tingles and not in a good way. Can what was an icky corporate bro-y platform now be used to foster connection and sales in the small biz/ 'solopreneur' space? Well, apparently so! Katie informs us there are, in fact, actual humans in their whole human-ness on LinkedIn and you can make some seriously cool connections as well as garner some new clients and sales too.

    Don't cancel your Canva subscription just yet though friend, come and dip a toe in with us and find out more (also, apparently we can still make pretty carousels in the scary shirt place too!).

    Because we love Katie so much, and she clearly knows her ish about this stuff, we've invited her to host this month's Disobedient Business® Bite on 28th March at 6pm UK time and she'll be teaching us all about how to win the game of LinkedIn life. You can find out more about this awesome workshop here.

    About Katie

  • In this episode Pippa and Peta ponder on politics (that's a lot of P's).

    Peta shares her story with us and how she has come to weave politics back into her business in a big way having started out life wanting to be Prime Minister (there's still time #VoteForPeta).

    We talk about why keeping politics firmly on the table in our businesses is a good thing and how it doesn't need to be all or nothing - do what works for you friend!

    In today's climate more and more people are driven to purchase from/ with with folks who have their values front and centre - you won't align with all the people in the world but you'll align with the ones that you're going to vibe with that's for sure so don't make it hard for them to get to know you 😎. Creating a manifesto for your business can help you share this with your community.

    About Peta

  • In this episode Pippa talks with the wonderful Keri Jarvis about running a feminist business and flying in the face of capitalist structures.

    Keri and Pippa discuss their journeys into feminism and how that developed with their businesses as well as the continuing journey of learning and unlearning and how to navigate that alongside cancel culture, self-doubt and the fear of rejection and judgement.

    Keri also shares what she's doing in her business right now to be as feminist and anti-capitalist as possible when we live in a cluster🦆 of a society.

    About Keri
    Keri Jarvis is an Intersectional Feminist, Developmental Coach and Community Activist.

    She’s been in business for 10 years, first as the Founder of Do It Like A Mother, a pregnancy and parenting business she sold in 2020, and has been teaching, mentoring and coaching small business owners for 6 years.

    She’s a Trustee and active member of All Rise Collective, a group of intersectional feminists who run Community Care Banks for people in Southend who have been impoverished by the Government.

  • In this episode Pippa talks all about thought leadership; what is it, why do it, who's doing it, why we like it.

    Often we are told to hide our voices, especially as women and people assigned female at birth and Pippa says no more! Be loud, be proud and be you because you is awesome 😍 [disclaimer; being a thought leader doesn't mean you have to be loud, just 'out loud' but more on that in the episode].

    So are you a thought leader friend? Do you think you could be? As ever we'd love to hear your thoughts so slide on into our DMs and chat on the 'gram.

  • In this episode of the Disobedient Business® Podcast, we have a little segue or detour if you will. Pippa is flying solo and sharing the 13 things that she really wants you, listeners of this podcast, to believe (and actively practice believing) to your very core.

    Why 13? Why not? We could have shared 50 or 100 but that would have been a super long episode, so these are the 13 that are front of mind from conversations with clients, in the Disobedient Business® Mastermind community, and in chats on socials recently.

    We invite you to find one thing that makes you bristle, one thing that gives you a nice hug, and one thing that puts the fire in your belly and come and share them with us on Instagram.

  • In this week's episode we explore WTAF it means to be professional in your business. Many of us business owners have hailed from some sort of big business, public sector or corporate background and have brought with us all sorts of pretty ingrained ideas of what it means to Be Professional when running our own businesses.

    The trouble is, these ideas originate from a patriarchal, capitalist system, driven by competition and comparison. Whether or not you've ever worked in a big office for The Man, many of these areas will resonate.

    Pippa and Lucy explore professionalism from the perspective of:

    your appearance and how you lookyour language and how you speakyour time management, productivity etchow you work with clients or show up for your work
