  • Building Your Dream Business Team
    Jun 4 2025
    Every successful business is built on the strength of its people. But how do you assemble a team that not only delivers results but also grows with your business? It all starts with clarity, knowing exactly what your business does, where it’s going, and the kind of people who will help you get there. In this episode, Business Strategist Clive Enever breaks down what it takes to build a dream team that doesn't just look good on paper but thrives in action. From hiring based on values to fostering a culture of leadership and letting go with grace, Clive outlines a practical, human approach to team building that strengthens both your business and your reputation. Key takeaways from the episode - Hire for attitude, confirm skills. Even when technical abilities are necessary, a values-aligned attitude is what makes someone a lasting part of your team. - Know your goals before hiring. A clear roadmap of your business objectives helps you define roles and attract the right people. - Look for value alignment. Dream teams are made of people who believe in your mission and want to contribute to it with a genuine purpose. - Leadership includes letting go. If a team member outgrows the role or business, supporting their next steps can enhance your culture and credibility. - Dream teams are built and nurtured. They don’t form by accident. Strong leadership and mutual respect are essential for long-term success. Assembling your dream team for business success Building a dream team is entirely possible, but it’s intentional work. From the initial job post to parting ways on good terms, every step counts. When your team feels connected to your purpose and inspired to lead, they’ll show up not just for the job, but for the vision. As Clive reminds us, dream teams aren’t born. They’re built, led, and most importantly, valued.

  • Crafting Intentional Content for Your Audience
    May 27 2025
    Crafting Intentional Content for Your Audience Creating content is more than just pressing record or typing out a blog post, it's about intentionally showing up for the audience you're speaking to. In this episode, Ideas, Impact and Marketing Strategist Linda Reed-Enever shares her proven approach for making sure your content is focused, purposeful, and created with your target audience in mind. Linda explores how repurposing content can sometimes dilute your message when not done with intention, and instead encourages content creators to stay present and purposeful in their creation process. Key Takeaways - Start With the Audience in Mind: Don’t just batch content for the sake of efficiency. Think first about who you're creating for and what they need. Structure your videos, blogs, or webinars to serve that specific audience. - Avoid Overwhelm: Trying to create long-form, short-form, and everything in between all at once can be overwhelming. - Script Strategically: Use a bullet-point format to outline your key talking points before recording. This allows for flexibility while keeping the message clear and focused. - Record With Purpose: Don’t just extract snippets from a long-form piece. Consider purposely recording separate short-form content that directly addresses quick tips or smaller angles on the topic. - Batch for Efficiency: Record in blocks, whether it's half a day or a full day, to generate a suite of content in the same theme. - Leverage Tools: Tools like Descript can help turn your recordings into transcripts, which you can use as the base for blog posts or show notes with the help of ChatGPT or other writing aids. Actions You Can Take - Script your content with your audience’s needs at the centre. - Record intentionally, focus on one type of content at a time. - After recording, decide what can be repurposed and how, without losing message clarity. - Block out time for batch recording sessions. - Use transcription and AI tools to turn your videos into written content. Your Content Creation Challenge Look at your upcoming content plan and choose one main piece to create intentionally for your core audience. Then explore how that piece can be used as the foundation for smaller snippets or support content.

  • Unbusy Living - Strategies for Work from Home Moms with Alyssa Wolf
    May 20 2025
    In this episode of The Business Owners Podcast, Linda Reed-Enever is joined by productivity and mindset mentor Alyssa Wolf, mother of five, homeschooler, and business owner, who is redefining what it means to thrive as a work from home parent. With Clive away this week, Linda and Alyssa dive into the real rhythms and strategies behind running a business, homeschooling, and prioritising self-care without burning out. From time blocking and realistic planning to embracing slow living, Alyssa brings a calm, considered approach that suits busy business owners with multiple hats to wear. If you’re balancing client work, family responsibilities and the pursuit of a little peace and quiet, this episode is packed with down to earth advice to help you reset and realign. Key Takeaways from This Episode: Productivity Without the Pressure Alyssa’s three productivity pillars are: scheduling, mindset, and delegation. She uses time blocks, embraces imperfection, and shares age-appropriate responsibilities with her kids, reminding us that we truly don’t have to do it all. Deep Work in 90-Minute Sessions Rather than jumping from task to task, Alyssa sets aside focused time for deep work in 90-minute blocks. It's a practice that supports quality thinking and leaves room for proper breaks. Homeschooling + Business Can Co-Exist Alyssa shows how homeschooling and business ownership can work together with thoughtful planning and flexible routines. Her method honours both focus and connection, with zero guilt. Time Blocks Aren’t Just for Work A well-rounded schedule includes housework, rest, and margin. Alyssa’s approach includes buffer time to allow for the unexpected and avoid overcommitting. Real Self-Care is Essential Alyssa makes time for genuine rest, not just mindless scrolling. She builds two to three hours of daily downtime into her schedule and helps her kids develop the habit too. Booking Calendars are a Game-Changer Whether it’s Acuity or TidyCal, using an automated calendar reduces the back-and-forth and protects your time. As Alyssa says, “It is what it is, what you can find is what you can find.” Micro Action from Alyssa: Feeling overwhelmed? Do a brain dump. Get it all out of your head and onto paper (or into a Google Doc), then ask yourself: what actually has to happen this week? Let go of the rest, and tackle one step at a time. Whether you’re a parent, solopreneur, or leading a growing team from home, this episode is your reminder that rest is productive and doing less can often help you achieve more.

  • Affirmations - A Strategic Tool for Managing Overwhelm
    May 13 2025
    In the world of business, feeling overwhelmed is more common than we’d like to admit. With endless to-do lists, mounting responsibilities, and the pressure to perform, it’s easy to find ourselves spread too thin. Clive Enever, a seasoned business strategist, offers a powerful and simple strategy to tackle this: the use of focused affirmations. In this episode, Clive discusses how affirmations—used correctly—can quiet the mind, realign our focus, and help us take back control from the chaos. Instead of succumbing to overwhelm, Clive encourages us to approach our days with intention, clarity, and gratitude. In this episode, he covers: - Overwhelm often stems from doing too much in too little time, which calls for re-evaluating what’s truly essential in your business and letting go of the rest. - Affirmations are most powerful when they focus on a valued, long-term outcome that is phrased as if it’s already been achieved. - Avoid using too many affirmations for random daily desires; this can add to the mental clutter rather than relieve it. - Carry your chosen affirmation with you—in your wallet, pocket, or purse—and read it aloud anytime you feel stressed or anxious. - Even when you're not overwhelmed, continue using your affirmation to reinforce positive habits and keep your goals in sharp focus. Finding Clarity and Making Strategic Moves During Challenging Times Affirmations are more than just positive words. They’re a grounding practice that helps business owners stay focused and emotionally balanced. As Clive points out, the right affirmation, coupled with gratitude, has the power to transform not just your mindset, but your outcomes. The key lies in consistent, mindful use, especially during moments of doubt or discomfort. Embrace the calm, visualise your success, and watch your overwhelm dissolve.

  • Growth Beyond Strategy - Getting Unstuck with Kaitlyn Cook
    Apr 8 2025
    After a long-awaited reunion, Linda Reed-Enever and Clive Enever are back behind the mic together in quite some time, and they’ve returned with a great new episode.

Key Takeaways from this Episode: - Strategy is not enough – A solid plan can fall flat without addressing the limiting beliefs, fear, and mindset challenges that arise between steps. - Risk and self-awareness go hand-in-hand – Understanding your personal tolerance for risk and learning to back yourself is crucial for making bold moves. - Feeling stuck is often emotional, not strategic – Clarity on your vision, coupled with emotional regulation, can shift the needle more than overplanning ever could. - The “why” matters more than the “how” – Staying connected to a deeper purpose helps navigate the inevitable discomfort that comes with growth and change. - You are your business – The more you grow and evolve as a person, the more your business will reflect that change and open up new opportunities. Whether you’re just starting out or already deep in your business journey, Kaitlyn’s advice is a powerful reminder that personal growth and professional momentum are inextricably linked. As Clive and Linda so aptly summarise, change is necessary, and when embraced on your terms, it can lead to an incredible transformation.

  • How Public Relations Can Boost Your Sales
    Apr 1 2025
    Public Relations (PR) is often misunderstood when it comes to sales. Many business owners assume that a single press release or media appearance will immediately translate into a spike in sales. However, PR is not a short-term sales tactic but a long-term strategy for building brand awareness, credibility, and trust. When done right, PR can significantly contribute to your business’s success by creating visibility and positioning your brand in front of the right audience. In this episode, Ideas and Marketing Strategist Linda Reed-Enever breaks down what PR really is, how it works, and which PR campaigns can have a direct impact on sales. While traditional PR doesn’t usually result in an instant sales boost, there are specific strategies that can drive consumer action and contribute to your bottom line over time. Key Takeaways - PR is about relationships, not just press releases – PR is about building strong relationships with journalists, publications, and your target audience to create credibility and awareness. - PR does not always lead to direct sales – While PR builds brand recognition, it typically does not lead to an immediate increase in sales. Instead, it strengthens your reputation, which contributes to long-term growth. - Review campaigns can drive sales – Offering your product for review in the right publications or websites exposes your brand to a trusted audience. If paired with an affiliate link, it can generate direct sales. - Competitions can generate leads and sales – Running a competition where you offer your product as a prize can expand your reach, increase brand awareness, and grow your customer database. Effective PR takes time and consistency, but when done well, it keeps your brand top-of-mind for consumers and strengthens your market presence. PR is a powerful tool that helps your brand stand out, builds trust, and ultimately supports sales over time.
