  • #105. Can Astrology Actually Help You Build Your Ideal Practice? A Conversation With Taylor Shuler
    May 21 2024

    Today we're going to talk about something a little different … Astrology.

    I know some of you will roll your eyes at this. 🙄 And some of you will absolutely lean in (Hello there, Pices!). 🤩 But I encourage ALL of you to listen because there is so much more to this topic than checking a horoscope in the newspaper.

    Today I’m talking to Taylor Shuler, a Certified Professional Astrologer. Taylor helps entrepreneurs find and fulfill their purpose by using a range of tools, including astrology.

    In her own words, Taylor wants to help you ….

    Find, validate, and fulfill your soul’s purpose, to give you the clarity to really feel good about what you’re doing and the direction that you’re following.

    Well, that sure sounds like something we should all do!

    Taylor explains that astrology is a language that can help us to understand ourselves and the events around us.

    For example, why are some people ‘big picture thinkers’ while others revel in the details?

    The answer probably lies in our birth charts.

    And think about this …

    Why does it feel so hard to make progress sometimes? Despite how hard we work or how much we want to achieve something, We. Just. Feel. Stuck.

    Well, astrology says that maybe it’s just not the right time. Maybe you’re right where you’re meant to be, but now is a time for resting and planning, BEFORE the time comes to launch and grow. 🌱

    It's an interesting perspective…🤔

    In this episode, you’ll also learn:

    1. The different gifts, talents, tendencies, and energy that each star sign has.
    2. Why we are drawn to certain professions.
    3. How to work with the ebb and flow of energy – for yourself AND your business.
    4. Why some signs work well together - and others, not so much!
    5. Why one business model might suit you better than others.

    There are many different tools and techniques that we can use to better understand ourselves and how we behave (for example, the Enneagram, which we discussed back in Episode 33). And, far from being just a trivial, ‘woo woo’ topic, astrology can also be a valuable addition to your toolbox.

    This can help you to better understand your strengths, your weaknesses, and even your ideal timing to act (or not!).

    Armed with this knowledge, it can also help you to design a business that is genuinely exciting, fulfilling, and in perfect alignment with who YOU are.

    And isn’t that the very definition of an Ideal Practice?! 🥰

    Worth thinking about. :)

  • #104. The True Cost of a Non-Ideal Client: What You Need to Know
    May 14 2024

    You have a big heart, and I know you feel like you could help almost anyone in your private practice.

    But that idea, as lofty as it is, just isn’t true.

    The truth? There is a cost to working with those who aren’t a good fit for you. And in this episode, we’re talking directly about what that cost actually is.

    You’ll learn about 4 areas where you may experience a disconnection with your clients, and what that means for you AND for them.

    But we’ll also talk about how to remedy each situation.

    Sometimes, there are steps you can take in your practice to turn things around, or maybe, even to prevent those disconnections altogether.

    Being careful to cultivate a caseload of clients you are truly suited to serve is one of the keys to a successful, sustainable private practice.

    Give this a listen.

  • #102. Pay Attention to Your Money - and Watch It Grow: A Conversation with Jacquette M. Timmons
    Apr 30 2024

    We’ve talked a lot about money stories here on the Ideal Practice© podcast. But today, I want you to dive a little deeper into your own money story. I want you to think about how your money makes you feel.

    For example: Do you feel energized when you think about your finances? 🤩

    OR…do you feel stressed, heavy, and anxious about your financial situation? 😵‍💫

    Your answer says something about your relationship with money.

    Is it healthy, or toxic?

    Today, you'll hear a fascinating conversation with Jacquette M. Timmons, a speaker, author, and financial behaviorist. Jacquette works with smart, driven, and curious high-earners to help them take back their money story and create their future financial success.

    How cool is that?

    And if there’s one thing Jacquette wants you to know, it’s this;

    Financial success doesn't start in your wallet. Because there are a whole bunch of choices that you need to make before you even go there.

    Jacquette talks about the importance of paying attention to your behavior with money, which really means paying attention to the emotions that you bring to that.

    She wants us to start with our feelings around money, and what our relationship with money looks like. Because, just like in any relationship, how you behave determines everything.

    Healthy relationships – financial relationships included – don’t happen all by themselves.

    So in this episode, we’re going to explore:

    • How you can build a healthy relationship with your money.
    • The 3 key ways to build wealth.
    • How to know when you’re wealthy. (What???)
    • The difference between being rich and being wealthy.
    • How to identify your blind spots around money.

    Here’s the thing, folks …

    You are allowed to make money. It's okay. You are allowed to have nice things, and you are allowed to experience luxury, however you define that.

    Isn’t it time to change your money story and start earning what you deserve?

    I think so.

    Here’s to writing a new script!
