    Focus Of The Week - Moving On

    Phoebe is tackling the last design project chez Cairncross – Irving’s bookshelves – and Judith’s taken up her coloured pencils again for some holiday adult colouring. #entrepreneurs #businessskills #youngpeople #TwinsthenewTrend #JamieFoxx #SamHarris #truth #investments #TheWeek

    Focus Of The Week - Young Entrepreneurs

    Nicola tackles Brenda’s challenge about engaging teenagers and young people to develop and business and digital skills, recommending profiling, a few excellent resources in people and books, getting the teams to think about selling either their own products and services or somebody else’s and documenting their journey with video so that they can create a course teaching other schools how to do the same thing in future.

    Words Of The Week

    Judith chooses Truth and Nicola picks Investments.

    Project Updates

    Judith’s Wednesday got away with her and so we didn’t have any progress to report this week, whereas Nicola has recorded the first of a new series of podcasts with Poker Pete which they are calling “Poke It! How Businesses Work”.

    Who Or What's Impressed

    Nicola has enjoyed a Netflix film called Project Power starring Jamie Foxx, and Sam Harris’ podcast called Making Sense. Judith is impressed that TwinsthenewTrend have gone global and their success has been reported in lots of big newspapers even in the business column as they monetise their output with merchandise and Patreon.

  • Sarah Johnston says: ““Being brave. Getting in your own way by being scared to be out there! Twitter / other platforms can be hostile, lots of people following to unfollow - tactics and approaches that make me want to go more into myself..."

    In The Show

    Nicola and Judith discuss a question from a listener about being brave, especially on social media platforms which can feel hostile.

    Nicola and her family have enjoyed a family BBQ at her Dad’s to celebrate her niece’s birthday and given that everyone was on furlough, they could do it on a Tuesday lunchtime. Judith has struggled to keep both her visiting cat and the garden alive during ferocious heat. She was only successful with one it appears, but the right one. #brave #heatwave #maths #fans #RobertBreedlove #5DayChallenge #assets #investments #PompPodcast

    What's Fuelled Their Fire?

    Nicola and her VA are back in the swing of creating the v-zine with a week in hand, and Judith’s enjoyed a wonderful exchange with a client about how her partner has worked out how good he is at maths and how to enjoy it again after a dreadful experience at school.

    Focus Of The Week - Being Brave in Business

    Sarah Johnston says: ““Being brave. Getting in your own way by being scared to be out there! Twitter / other platforms can be hostile, lots of people following to unfollow - tactics and approaches that make me want to go more into myself. I used to always think of myself as an extrovert but having my daughter with additional support needs has rocked all the ground beneath me.”

    N&J explore to what extent they feel we need to be brave in business and what has happened to make them so.

    Words Of The Week

    Judith chooses Maths and Nicola picks Fans.

    Project Updates

    Judith rebelled in the heat against moving her project forward this week, too hot to sit at her desk, and Nicola is getting organised for her next 5-Day Challenge by getting all her ducks in a neat and tidy row.

    Who Or What's Impressed

    Judith was proud that the maths client and partner spotted the error of their ways and got back on track on their property project, guided by the maths, and Nicola recommends Robert Breedlove on Bitcoin. An Open Letter to Ray Dalio.

    In The Show

    Judith and Nicola answer a question from a listener about investing in time off from work and feeling good about it as opposed to guilty as if you were caught slacking off.

    Nicola has enjoyed her usual weekly round of tea with Heather, sundowners on the roof with the kids, and poker with Pete but unusually she and Nelson had a row (about a cardboard box!). Judith has had an epic fail on her first attempt in her unexpectedly heroic quest for the perfect compostable coffee pod. #Nespresso #Recycling #HelloFresh #SusanAnnHills #Everywoman #5DayChallenge #TimeOff #SelfCare #HarvardBusinessReview

    What's Fuelled Their Fire?

    Nicola is pleased with her decision to try out Hello Fresh, four dinners for £17 and a 50% discount voucher for first timers. Judith has enjoyed a conversation on Facebook about the importance of creative people making time to do nothing,

    Focus Of The Week - Time Off Is Never Wasted

    Sea Painter Jo Payne invites Judith and Nicola to talk about the importance of self-care. Jo describes herself as “now religiously fitting in yoga, Pilates, meditation, breathing exercises, walking outside, lying on prickly mats listening to gongs into my daily life, it’s a wonder I have time to actually paint. But if I don’t do these things, it all goes horribly wrong eventually and then I can’t".

    Nicola recommends the Harvard Business Review article called How to Forget About Work When You’re Not working.

  • Confident and successful Aussie listener and former listener guest, Kerryn, asked J&N to address this age-old challenge, and it brought up selling your stuff for the right price, giving away only what you want to and more.

    In The Show

    Judith and Nicola answer a question from a listener who considers she still struggles with knowing her worth.

    Nicola and her sisters have been to visit their Dad who has announced his intention to return to New Zealand; she’s got a new iPhone 11+ Pro and digital pen. Poker with Pete was replaced this week with a drink and dinner in lieu. Judith tells Nicola the story of an ex who left her £300k in debt in the late eighties – he’s dead now, she’s discovered online. #TheNueCo #GaryVee #iPhone11 #hose #mice #5DayChallenge #KnowingYourWorth #MorningPages #Ancestry

    What's Fuelled Their Fire?

    Nicola is planning another Clicks and Leads 5 Day Challenge for 7th September and twelve pieces of content to promote it, following her own playbook. Judith’s done some very valuable coaching calls with writer clients this week and has found a new Morning Pages app instead of 750words.com

    Focus Of The Week - Knowing Your Worth

    Confident and successful Aussie listener and former listener guest, Kerryn, asked J&N to address this age-old challenge, and it brought up selling your stuff for the right price, giving away only what you want to, asking for testimonials and noting what people appreciate about you, quoting for work on a value billing basis and asking for a brief and a budget before accepting work which might turn out not to reflect your true worth.

    Words Of The Week

    Judith chooses Hose and Nicola picks Mice.

    Project Updates

    Nicola has created a white paper called Survive & Thrive to 2030 and started a WhatsApp Group which she is proposing to migrate to Discord. Judith has completed her third out of the final eight goals in the self-authoring suite Future module and wonders whether she needs to do anymore since #3 seems to reflect her entire future in one. She will because she is a completist and a good girl!

    Who Or What's Impressed

    Nicola has responded to a request from Gary Vee in favour of a family member and enjoyed a good warm feeling about it, and Judith is impressed by the combo of her ex’s cousin and Ancestry.com which is how and where she was able to find out everything about his death, and by TheNueCo.com and their products and packaging, specifically their Functional Fragrance.

  • Artist Helen Elliott says “There’s something about being self-employed and always being very, very tempted to say yes to everything, mainly because of the excitement of new projects, but also because of the need to constantly build and have income.

    In The Show

    Judith and Nicola answer a question from a listener who wants to say yes to everything and yet earn a great living and enjoy some work life balance.

    Nicola’s son Nelson has astro turfed their roof and Facebook closed down her ad account again. Not to worry, she’s successfully appealed. Judith’s enjoyed another lovely visit with a free lunch, she’s exploring Amazon Prime Now, falling back in love with 750Words and struggling again with hoses and their sun-baked connectors. #FBAds #SayingYes #FredSirieix #RupertMurdoch #HughGrant #Hectoring #Validated #Creator #Scanner #Thinkific

    Nicola is uploading content to Thinkific and is impressed by client Kate Cocker who pivoted from presenter coach to podcast producer. Judith admires the team at Back to 60 for their fortitude in fighting for the WASPI women born in the Fifties who had their pensions stolen by the UK government. There was a second appeal this week against the government, result as yet unknown.

    Focus Of The Week - Saying Yes to Everything

    Artist Helen Elliott says “There’s something about being self-employed and always being very, very tempted to say yes to everything, mainly because of the excitement of new projects, but also because of the need to constantly build and have income. This, balanced by the need to not burn out, focus on and finish projects, and of course relax and enjoy life outside business.” Discuss!

    Words Of The Week

    Judith chooses Hectoring and Nicola picks Validated.

    Project Updates

    Nicola felt the pull to re-start her vzine, and Judith continues her work towards completing the self-authoring project designed by Jordan Peterson. She’s at 75% of the final module. Progress in this part is slow but steady as it is quite demanding.

  • Nicola has been listening to former mentor Rich Schefren again, and Tracy Goss, and thinking about leadership, creativity, her USP and a cause...

    In The Show

    Nicola has been in a funk, realising she’s not ready to retire or limit herself only to introvert activities. Judith’s enjoyed a lovely peaceful bank holiday week although her infestation difficulties persist. #LiveStreaming #Restreamio #EcammLive #Streamyard #RichSchefren #DollyParton #Dave #Dollywood #JonRichardson #UKTVPlay

    What's Fuelled Their Fire?

    Nicola is excited by the prospect of streaming to multiple platforms simultaneously using such things as Restream.io or Ecamm Live or Streamyard. A client asked Judith how she would describe herself and her current way of working which turns out to be on point for this week’s Focus too.

    Focus Of The Week - Bigger Than Yourself

    Nicola has been listening to former mentor Rich Schefren again, and Tracy Goss, and thinking about leadership, creativity, her USP and a cause bigger than herself. She feels inspired to write a new book. She feels she has so much to give and is frustrated that right now she hasn’t been doing enough to speak to a larger audience during lockdown and given the difficulties with Facebook. The restreaming apps and a new book will help her reach a wider audience with what she knows which is of use to many more listeners and readers than she feels she’s been able to reach recently.

    Words Of The Week

    Judith chooses Solitude and Nicola picks Noise.

    Project Updates

    Judith reports in on her progress with her study with Jordan Peterson’s audio book 12 Rules for Life (she’s at rule #8), and also his self-authoring online writing program where she’s completed the first module (Past) proving his point that life is tough. Nicola’s handed off the entirety of her Financial Intelligence 101 project to her VA in the Philippines.

    Who Or What's Impressed

    N and J have discovered the free UKTV Play app this week, Judith because she wanted to watch Jon Richardson and Lucy Beaumont on Dave. Nicola tells Judith of Dolly Parton’s wonderful work in reducing the school dropout rate in her home town and state, and how she sends books to any child in the world from infancy until they go to school. Both are impressed by these wonderful initiatives.

    Words Of The Week

    Judith chooses Chutzpah and Nicola goes with Flexibility.

    Project Updates

    Nicola’s found a good way to chunk down her content of the Money Gym book into 101 bite-sized pieces for those who don’t want email. It involves a daily bot with a link to a password protected page on her website where you can listen to or read the content.

    Who Or What's Impressed

    Nicola and family have concluded their binge fest of all nine Star Wars movies in one week and are moving onto the two spin-offs – Solo and Rogue One.

  • Feeling wistful at Phoebe’s 25th, Nicola suggests to Judith that the two of them might come up with and share some thoughts and tips about things...

    In The Show

    Nicola’s week has been about daughter Phoebe’s 25th birthday, a new bed, an electric screwdriver and a pasta-making machine. Judith’s enjoyed a wonderful sunny week in which she busted domestic tolerations, and completed her business accounts for the year. #Birthdays #Tolerations #Accounts #25Again #Lockdown #Wisdom

    What's Fuelled Their Fire?

    Here’s a link to the k d lang song Miss Chatelaine which Judith mentions.

    Project Updates

    Who Or What's Impressed

    Judith puts in a vote for The Rev. Danny Jones of the Northlake Baptist Church, Gainseville, GA who summarises the entirety of the covid situation precisely and concisely with dates, chapter and verse. Ignore the God bits if that’s not your bag! And Nicola recommends a 4-way show of Joe Rogan’s podcast.
