In today’s episode, give a round of applause to your own damn self. It’s often easier to clap for others than to clap for ourselves. That’s why it’s essential that we sit in building our own self-esteem as business owners. You need to be able to champion yourself and show up with confidence day in, day out to stay in it for the long haul. We’re talking about how you can strengthen those self-esteem muscles. Christine and Alana (@alanaruoso) also discuss mindset hacks to keep that nasty imposter syndrome at bay and ways to double down on trusting your own gut. Plus, you’ll get 3 ways to ensure you’re actually building your own dreams and not someone else’s.
Alana Ruoso is a Success Coach for Designers, Creatives and Entrepreneurs who deep down know that they can do better, but keep falling short of where they want to go. With over 20 years of experience working at top design studios and owning her own businesses, Alana has been there, done that, bought the T-shirt and re-designed it so it looks much better with your favourite jeans. Radiating humour and honesty, Alana shows clients how to ditch struggle, own their value and move their career from vanilla success to spectacular triumph.

It is posted as an aid to understanding the episode for those who may be hard of hearing or those looking for additional resources. Not to start off on a daunting note, but some days it’s an accomplishment to just get out of bed. Typically the path of entrepreneurship has come because like myself and many listeners here, they knew there was something more and better that would motivate them to get out of bed in the morning. But there may be something in their way. What are the 3 S’ and the importance of this in our own lives and business?Imposter syndrome is REAL. How many of you have thought about starting that business, launching that podcast finally, or dreaming big and pitching that client once and for all? That voice creeps in and we shoot for small so that it’s within our realm of comfort and realistic expectations. Mindset is so powerful. How can I identify when it’s fear talking or if it’s actually real facts to think twice?The art of storytelling is extremely powerful. Sometimes to the point where we even doubt ourselves and question the choices we make. What are your top 3 tips to building a new path to success that feels doable and fulfilling?Vivian Kaye, another fellow branding expert had said that, “Consistency is harder when no one is clapping for you. That’s why I’m clapping for my own damn self.” And you know that here on the Brand Party Podcast, we are all about celebration! Celebrating every win no matter how small or big it may seem to you in this very moment. On the days that we just need a pick-me-up and clap for ourselves, what is your no-fail strategy?
