Description

If you are joining me today at a time where you’ve been battling with a particularly frustrating business-building mindset, the one where you have a million things you want to accomplish, are unsure of exactly where to start, and have seemingly lost the creative and / or productive capability to make it happen – I see you!
And this chat will be exactly what you need.
Our guest today is Lisa Booth, Founder of Booken Blend, a business that is all about supporting individuals in the build of their passive, sustainable home – and there’s a beautiful synergy in the concept of building something sustainably that I want you to hold in the same space as your approach to building your business.
in this chat you’ll hear about:

Following an instinct, into an idea, into a business
Developing a business that allows you to do work that can make a real impact on your own life and the lives [and wellbeing] of others
The fear you experience when you start monetizing one of your passions
Testing your ideas before over-investing in them
Nurturing and genuinely serving your biggest fans
Why practice makes perfect really is the key in building your own thing
What it really feels like to pull the pin on a secure job for the insecurity of a growing business
Shifting your known identity from one thing to another
And knowing your creative limits on the days it doesn’t flow.

Imposter syndrome is something we hear about a lot, because it can affect us all – regardless of what qualifications we have or the amount of market testing we do before creating something, there will likely still be this little voice saying “who do you think you are to do this” – if that little voice is driving you nuts and you want to put it in the bin, you’re gonna love this chat.

This weekly podcast explores what it’s like to be starting your career over, with the people who’ve done it. In conversation, we tackle the messy middle of changing your life - how it feels to drop the identity of whatever came before and step into a brand new you – with, or without a plan.  Your host is Kim Kerton (hi!) the creator behind the handmade ceramics and plant-based recipes of Good Side of the Bed, a writer, marketer, yoga teacher, sea-changer, rev-head and pug mum. Before all that, Kim spent over a decade in the commercial media business. She decided to walk away, got unemployed and afraid, and here we are. This podcast is for the brave people who want to start over but are feeling the fear - maybe putting off starting because the end isn’t clear - and for those who find themselves right in the middle of the whirlwind. Whether by choice or by push, starting over is scary, Unemployed & Afraid is your tribe on the pathway through change.
