Staffing stress? You’re not on your Pat Malone! Many of you have recently brought on your first staff members, and I hear you. YOU. ARE. STRESSED. Building a team can be a truly exciting and rewarding time in any business, but it often comes with traumatic growth on the part of the business owner. This isn’t because you’re a bad leader or a bad bus…

Why exactly am I so excited? Well some of it is a secret for now, but here’s what I can tell you … EXCITING NEWS! In addition to new online courses (announcement coming next week), I’m putting together a series of in-person events in Melbourne! It’s been such an incredibly long time since I’ve been able to run workshops, and I can’t wait to get bac…

This week I’ve been speaking about this with my Like A Boss members (in BIG detail) and also introduced the concept to my No Quarter members. The key issues everyone is weighed down by seem to be: (i) A need to work “smarter-not-harder” after our past brutal couple of years; (ii) The need for several changes to how their businesses function in orde…

What’s it like to be a member of Like A Boss? Well, for starters the retreats are just magic - so much work ON your business, so much support, so much problem solving! This is Day Two of our current retreat, and this one’s a hybrid with some members on-site and some members zooming in. And it’s still magic! I’m only admitting ONE more member to thi…

You already know what works to put you into a better frame of mind. Do more of that. And if you can’t find motivation, override it and take opposite action. * Don’t feel like walking? Go anyway. * Not in the mood to talk to anyone? Call a friend. * Feeling miserable? Watch a movie that always makes you laugh. You get the idea. You know what works f…

One of the main stressors in modern life is not having enough hours in the day. Trying to juggle working from home and remote learning for those of us in lockdown magnifies the problem. It stirs up the background noise of stress around getting things done at all (let alone on time). How’s your email inbox looking? What about your bills? How are you…

“Why am I so tired all the time?” This is a question I hear all the time at the moment … and one I often ask myself! You might have seen media articles talking about ‘fatigue’ and ‘languishing’, but what’s it all about? And why can’t we just “pick ourselves up by the bootstraps” and soldier on like we used to? Well, let’s stop for a minute and thin…

We all need to feel seen and heard, especially when times are tough. We need to know that when we’re struggling, others see our pain. This provides validation that what we are experiencing is real. We also need to know that our reaction to difficult times is not “crazy”, but a normal response that anyone in the same situation would also experience.…

One of the easiest things we can do to improve the moment we are in (which can have the added benefit of refreshing our mood) is to grab a reset minute. What’s that? Something super simple that creates a pattern-interrupt when you’re in a bit of a mood fug. Even something as simple as changing your posture or vocalising can do it. * If you’ve been …

October is mental health awareness month. I’ve decided to bring some of my top tips for maintaining good mental health. A bit like cleaning your teeth to avoid decay, there are little things we can do each day to reset, refresh, and manage our moods. Today’s tip is GROUNDING … What does this mean? If we think of how our emotions have the occasional…

Neighbours, clients, referrers, and staff … these are all relationships that contribute to the viability of your business. Look after them.

MONEY... We all drop the ball sometimes! This time of year gets us laser focussed on what’s been coming into our businesses, and more confrontingly, what’s been going out. We are forced to pay close attention to some truths about our businesses that we might not like. Perhaps we’ve been a bit stuck in a comfort zone with regards revenue streams. Or…

PERFORMANCE … When talking performance indicators, most people assume Key Performance Indicators - and then link these to punitive measures to curb underperformance. I’d like you instead to think of two types of performance indicators: Key Performance Indicators and CUSTOMER Performance Indicators. Key Performance Indicators can be things like: - N…

Have you avoided marketing this past financial year? Too busy? Like, literally TOO BUSY? Scared it’s going to cost you time and money? I’m here to tell you all that is nonsense. Many business owners tell me they don’t want to engage in marketing because they’re scared to have to turn business away. What does this tell us? They need to recruit, righ…

“What if I fail? What if I don’t have all my shit together? I’m the boss, I should have all the answers!” … And other nonsense we tell ourselves. I was interviewed today by my buddy, Gerda Muller, and we got talking about business failures and how this relates to adopting a CEO Mindset. What I said to her might surprise you.…

Huge thanks to the more than 60 people who completed my survey (it’s still open if your keen). Key issues for most people: Time Management Staffing Marketing (this was very telling!) Delegation Revenue Streams So what am I doing about it? Luckily I’d already started putting together my CEO Mindset training program, which covers all these issues, an…

Today I launched my CEO Mindset training, which will run in July (2021). What is a CEO mindset though? Here's a snippet from a video I recorded in 2019 where I explain the CEO mindset concept. Since this was filmed, I've moved to Melbourne, sold one of my practices, started a third business, and employed more people to help me grow in each of my bu…

I was asked a great question this morning from someone launching a new practice. In summary the question was this: “How do I know when to set my fees at the same rate as others?” There are so many factors that go into fee setting, but the first thing you need to factor in is your own money baggage. Do you feel “worthy” to charge the same as your co…

You’ve already got all the training, knowledge, and skills you need. All you need to do is trust in that, and share it! We all worry about “getting it wrong” sometimes. But the reality is you have conversations within your area of expertise every day. So why is it so hard to do the exact same thing with an audience? Scared of embarrassing yourself?…

Being outspoken does not make you wrong. Being opinionated does not make you a bad person. Having a voice does not make you unprofessional. Expressing dissent does not make you difficult. Not even if you’re a woman! #businesswoman #outspoken #difficultwoman #entrepreneur #psychologist

It Can Take Time to Find What Suits Us in Our Businesses. In business and in life, we can spend an awful lot of time faffing about with different styles trying to figure out which one works for us. We’re familiar with ‘body shape’ fashion advice, but what about the right fit for your business? Sole Trader or Company? Employee Model or SubContractor…

Don’t assume no-one’s looking at your content, and don’t underestimate the influence you’re having. It’s tempting to focus on the number of followers, likes, comments, and shares that our social media activity generates. But this only tells a very small part of the story. #businesscoach​ #psychologist​ #privatepractice​ #socialmedia​ #influence​ #e…

I’ve had a few conversations this week about delegating. What to delegate, who to delegate to, how to delegate, and all of the feelings that delegating triggers in us. What to delegate: * Takes you don’t enjoy (yes, this is allowed!) * Tasks you never seem to get to * Tasks that misuse your time * Tasks that deplete your energy Who to delegate to: …

Let’s talk about “emotional whiplash” ... If you’re in Melbourne you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. We’ve all learned to be flexible during this pandemic, but sudden changes in quick succession are exhausting. They also remind us how little we can plan at the moment, which is additionally stressful in itself. Feeling that we don’t have con…

Stepping outside your comfort zone pushes all sorts of buttons. It might be fear of judgement, fear of embarrassing yourself, fear of making a mistake. But as I told my son this morning, fear of something that hasn’t happened yet is wasted energy. My philosophy (based on years of stepping outside of my own comfort zone, and encouraging others to do…

Feeling exhausted and emotional? Me too. Maybe you need to take a moment to acknowledge all the background noise taking up your attention, energy, and memory space. And maybe a little defrag will help! #LockdownDay4 #melbournelockdown #selfcare #mentalhealth #melbourne #businesscoach #psychologist #privatepractice…

Lockdown Day 3 - How are you travelling? The return to juggling work and remote learning threw me a bit today. But interestingly, working with my business clients had me laser focussed. Naturally we were talking about fees and busting some money mindset myths. #businesscoach​ #psychologist​ #privatepractice​ #moneymindset​ #chargeyourworth​ #melbou…

Melbourne Lockdown Day 2 ... Your Mental Health. I’m focusing on simply being with my kids, but I couldn’t shake the awareness of how much anxiety I’m seeing in the community at the moment. So I’m taking a minute to share a couple of tips for coping with that anxiety. #melbournelockdown #businesscoach #psychologist #anxiety #memtalhealth #privatepr…

It’s so tempting to wallow as we enter lockdown, and believe me I’ve been tempted today (pyjamas until 1:00pm anyone?), and because I get it, I’ll be the last person to tell you to pull up your socks and crack on. Today I’m going gently. I’ve got healthy food in the fridge and plenty of snacks for later. I’ve got a coffee in hand, music in my ears,…

How Being Busy is an Addictive Trap Just caught myself telling myself off because I had 20 minutes up my sleeve and I “should” be doing something! Funny thing, I was doing something. Rest is “doing something”. #businesscoach #psychologist #crawleyhouse #crawleyclinic #privatepractice #melbourne

This morning I was ashamed of myself for yelling at my son for something he didn’t do, then swearing like a trooper because Siri wouldn’t give me the directions to where I needed to take him for his swimming carnival. Mother of the Year I was not! Whether I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, or was just exhausted after the intensity of the virtu…

I am in Lockdown in Melbourne. In contrast, Gerda is likely to see an influx of tourists in her neck of the woods in Queensland as borders there have reopened. We could not be in more contrasting circumstances if we tried at the moment! So, today Gerda and I talk about how businesses can learn from the experiences of those of us in Melbourne who ar…

It is your place to have an opinion. It is your place to express it. It is your place to stand your ground if your opinion is unpopular. It is your place to hold the line for what you believe in.

What does BRAVE mean to you? I’m regularly challenging my business coaching clients to step outside their comfort zones and put as much faith in their abilities as I do. Needless to say, I often push my own comfort boundaries too. What’s scary to you might not be scary to me, and vice versa. But it’s important to remember. WE DO SCARY THINGS! p.s. …

Be your “authentic” self. Show up in “authenticity”. What does this even mean? Too often I see professionals showing up on social media putting their best professional foot forward, but looking terrified. If you’re afraid to be you, if you’re afraid to drop the facade and just be, how will we ever get to know you? And if we can’t get to know you, h…

Steady as she goes. In the face of so much community anxiety, we need to remember our roles as “captains”. As we navigate these choppy seas, we have ways to do so safely. We might not know how long our journey will be. The navigational charts may not be clearly plotted. But we have sails to help us move forward. We have a rudder to hold us steady. …

Two years ago today I embarked on a solo journey to Las Vegas. It was a seemingly crazy decision to travel to the other side of the world for what was ultimately a three-hour event. The lead up to me taking this journey was just as powerful as what followed … and what followed was incredible. If I had not trusted my own inner voice telling me I HAD…

In this episode of The G&T Sessions, Tess and Gerda talk about the levels of fatigue and the struggles with motivation that so many are feeling at the moment. It's been getting to us too! We talk about business innovation and how isolation has challenged us all to do things differently rather than insisting on "the way things have always been done"…

When you’re used to being progress-focussed and conscientious, it takes a lot to pull your foot off the accelerator pedal. But sometimes that’s your smartest next move. In isolation, we’re all juggling. Juggling working from home and educating from home. Juggling the desire to go out with the need to stay in. Juggling the sense of overwhelm with th…

In this episode of the Crawley & Drager Sessions, Mark and I talk about how we’re all adapting to these times of isolation and social distancing, what we’re noticing others do well, and how it’s working out for our own businesses.
