Welcome to the very first Gutsy Podcast Exclusive featuring Marcus Lemonis from CNBC's The Profit!

What Marcus loves most about small businesses
The key thing you should be focused on when starting a business
Being yourself as a leader: where to draw the "bright line"
Why branding should be a complementary process as opposed to a primary objective
A new way to look at failure as part of your success
What Gutsy means to Marcus

Humble beginnings have led to Marcus’s business success – as a serial entrepreneur and CEO, he’s dedicated his life to helping other small businesses revive and thrive. You’re probably most familiar with Marcus from CNBC’s The Profit where he invests time, care, and money into helping entrepreneurs save their dream and get a clear plan of action to maintain it.

His focus is on authentic relationships and purpose-driven commerce. Known for his down to earth, brutally honest approach, Marcus has become a beacon of information and hope to small businesses throughout the world.

Powerback 73: Delegate one task to achieve success Sep 17, 2020

Show notes

Delegation is one of the most glorious options - and also the most underutilized. You started the business, probably bootstrapping most of your tasks. You learned marketing, accounting, content writing, communicating, scheduling - you're doing IT ALL.
You get to a point where you outgrow these tasks - or realize areas that you're simply not awesome (which is OK!). However, letting go is often one of the most difficult things for entrepreneurs. Why? It's in the mindset that "no one can do it as good as I can."
Remember... Just because you CAN doesn't mean you SHOULD.
Take your Powerback™ this week by delegating at least ONE of your tasks to free up more time and creative freedom for the things you're amazing at.

73: The Art of Delegation with Susan Epstein Sep 15, 2020

Show notes

Delegation... it seems fantastic, right? There's people around you to help, taking things off of your plate. The HARDEST part is are you WILLING and READY to let it go? Today, we're talking about the art of delegation and how that contributes to your success in both life and business with my beautiful guest, Susan Epstein.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Creating consistent action, eliminating distraction, and focusing on your ONE THING
How to make more money by focusing on your one thing
How to evaluate if a task should be delegated or not
How to LET GO so you can effectively delegate
WHO to delegate to - do you hire an employee or a subcontractor

After a 25-year career as a psychotherapist in private practice, Susan launched her first coaching business in 2005.
In 2015 Susan pivoted and launched her newest business, Highly Profitable Practice. She is a business coach and strategist working with coaches, therapists and healers to fill their practices and then leverage their time.

Susan coaches her clients to follow her model by focusing on taking consistent action, eliminating distraction, finding their ONE THING.
Since then, she has scaled her business and has a team of coaches who deliver programming and a team of admins who do all the 'tech and back end detail work.' With this shift, Susan is able to help more coaches achieve their dreams of having a real and profitable business.

Powerback 72: Show up where you feel unqualified Sep 03, 2020

Show notes

There are so many areas of your life and your business where you STOP right before things get going because you start thinking...

I probably shouldn't
I probably can't
What are THEY going to think?

It's in those pauses before stepping into what you've been working so hard for that you unintentionally start to convince yourself out and away from it.
This week, I encourage you to take your Powerback™ by showing up in a place where you previously felt unqualified for:

Applying for a position
Applying to be a speaker
Taking control of your finances
Launching an Instagram show
Creating a Facebook business group
Becoming a leader in a specific area or topic

Powerback 70: Reclaim one area of your business that you've given away Aug 06, 2020

Show notes

Your bullshit stories not only show up in your personal life, but they leak into your business life as well. I was looking for other people to tell me that I was enough so that I could convince MYSELF that I was enough. I didn’t need them to tell me that I was worthy – but I didn’t believe it for myself, so I believed it through them.

How do you know where you're giving your power away?
Are you working a billion hours a day?
Are you on every board in every organization within your area?
Are you taking on every single client because you think you have to?
Are you working your ass off but your bank account isn’t reflecting it.

You can’t change everything over night, but you can start by making one at a time. Before you know it, your tolerance for bullshit will be non-existent and you’ll ask yourself “Why in the actual fuck didn’t I do this sooner??”
This week, I encourage you to take your Powerback by recognizing one area of your business that you're giving away your power and begin to reclaim it by doing the necessary inner work.

Powerback 69: Commit to Your Change Jul 23, 2020

Show notes

Making a change, whether it’s a little tiny movement, or you’re rerouting your entire life, requires a certain level of energy. I know how hard it can be to convince yourself to invest that already spent energy into something new.
But remember, if nothing changes, nothing changes – to get to where you want to be requires your commitment to making the necessary changes that it takes to get there.
This week you can take your Powerback by committing to change.

Where are you spending energy that you shouldn’t?
What could I do that brings me a little bit more joy each day?
What’s one thing you could do to get you closer to your goal?

When you’re doing more of the things that you love, your energy naturally follows.
