Let’s talk about you.

Your uniqueness, your story, your life, your opinions, your values… All of the stuff that makes you so, so, so different from anybody else out there.

That’s what we’re addressing in this week’s episode of Your Biz, Your Rules (the third instalment of my mini-series with the fabulous Alex Rudnicka). How can you reconnect to your inner badass and unleash it on your business?

Don’t worry, we’re about to tell you.

Listen here:

The key takeaways:

💛  Badass rule #1: own and recognise your value.

💛  Badass rule #2: take pride in your work and spend some time getting clear on just how good you are at what you do, and how you transform lives.

💛 Just because you decide to be unfiltered, doesn’t mean that you have to be rude and use swear words left, right and centre. Just as being authentic doesn’t mean you have to go live in your PJs. It’s all about the thought, intention and values you want to communicate in your marketing. (Note from Daire: However, I will continue to swear and go live in my PJs, ok?)

💛  The need to blend in, especially for women, usually comes from a place of fear. STOP THAT NOW.

💛  You need to figure out not only what you stand for, but what you stand against.

The quotables:

On surviving long term in business: it’s kind of time that you get over yourself and you embrace this marketing thing.

I’m always about work ethic. I’m not saying you have to do hundreds of hours, but you don’t get to skip the steps.

That’s true badassery for me, to really own your craft, and be really, really good at what you do… and then charging accordingly.

Are you not doing something because you’re telling yourself you’re an introvert, or are you not doing something because you refuse to learn the skill?
