  • This week on the podcast, I’m sharing one of my favorite topics, 8 great reasons to start a podcast. While this episode is a solocast, I’ve shared this information in various other formats: webinars, as a guest instructor in other courses, and in my own podcasting class, Jump Start Your Podcast. And, I think it’s a great perspective for anyone who is considering starting your own show, especially if you are a a service provider of any type (coach, doctor, VA, or someone who works supporting others)⠀ ⠀ I’ve found that there are a handful of reasons that you should start a podcast if you are considering it.⠀ ⠀ Head over to my site to see all of the 8 reasons, and to tune in to the whole episode⠀ ⠀ You can find the link in my profile. Plus, get a free downloadable cheat sheet for you to start your own show.⠀ ⠀ #startapodcast #podcast #solocast #howtopodcast #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #smallbiz #socialmediamarketing #business #entrepreneur #entreprenuers #training#onlinecourses #microbiz #microbusiness #lifecoachmarketing #marketing101 #businesstipsforwomen #businesstipsforcreatives #marketingforcreatives #womeninbusiness #womenentrepreneurs #womenbiz #learntopodcast #jumpstartyourjoy #podcastersofinstagram
  • Our lives are a puzzle and we are collecting the pieces⠀ ⠀ It’s a simple, and revolutionary way in how we think.⠀ ⠀ Instead of amassing accolades or recognition with your life’s work,, what if you’re uncovering pieces of your purpose? ⠀ What if you’re permitted to be curious about your world and your work? And dig around looking for what fits?⠀ ⠀ I don’t know about you, but the idea that we’re on a hunt for the puzzle pieces of our life feels a whole lot more free and spacious … and authentic than the rat race mentality.⠀ ⠀ How does it feel to you?⠀ ⠀ Thank you for joining me, @violetanedkova⠀ ⠀ To join us for the whole discussion, you can follow the link in my bio, or look for Jump Start Your Joy on any podcasting app and subscribe.⠀ #rebel #creativerebel #rebelreset #entrepreneurlife #lifesjourney #creativelifehappylife #creativebusiness #creativepreneur #makersgonnamake #makersupportingmakers #makersmovement #violetanedkova #jumpstartyourjoy #podcast #podcasts#podcasting #podcaster #itunes #trypod #podcastersofinstagram #smallbusiness #artislife

  • “What you really need is self love”⠀ Setting boundaries can be hard and confusing if you are new to it - and, let's be honest, setting boundaries gets a bad rap. As Andrea Owen and I discuss in this week's episode, society seems to tell us that "only bitches set boundaries." Here's the thing, that's just not true. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Healthy people with a good sense of self worth and self love set boundaries. People who love themselves and value themselves set boundaries, and it can be done in love. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Want to learn how? Tune in this week, and learn about 13 other habits and behaviors that are holding you back. And, go pick up Andrea's book, "Stop Feeling Like Shit." It's so good. <3⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ You can listen in and subscribe to @jumpstartyourjoy in the Apple podcast app, Stitcher app, Google Play, on @iheartradio or via the link in my bio!⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Thank you @yourkickasslife for being on the show this week!⠀⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy #yourkickasslife#stopfeelinglikeshit #findyourjoy#newbooksmell #andreaowen#podcastersofinstagram #podcast#selfhelp
  • "Joy is in the little moments."⠀⠀ When we're looking for joy, sometimes it feels like it's the big moments - the life defining moments where joy presents itself. While it's true that weddings, births, proms, proposals, the big moments often fill us with joy and make everything feel more sparkly, it's the little moments that are where the day to day joy is found.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ It's stopping to notice bubbles in a street.⠀⠀ It's noticing how your puppy's feet stick out at an adorable angle and that they make you laugh.⠀⠀ It's seeing a set of clouds on the horizon and thinking about how they look like art.⠀⠀ It's holding the hand of another person and realizing just how much they mean to you.⠀⠀ It's feeling the swell of togetherness when sitting in a congregation, family gathering, or with your group of friends⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ What little moments have brought you joy?⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ You can listen in and subscribe to @jumpstartyourjoy in the Apple podcast app, Stitcher app, Google Play, on @iheartradio or via the link in my bio!⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Thank you @yourkickasslife for being on the show this week!⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy #yourkickasslife#stopfeelinglikeshit #findyourjoy#newbooksmell #andreaowen#podcastersofinstagram #podcast#selfhelp
