Create Your Purpose

Jess Ekstrom is an entrepreneur I hugely admire, not just for her successes but for *HOW* she runs her business with so much integrity... and joy! Listen to hear how her purpose has evolved, from founding Headbands of Hope to give children with cancer confidence to her new ventures helping women share & tell their story on stage and through writing.

It's story time! Snuggle up, brew a cuppa, and get cozy because today I’m going to tell you the story of how I became an entrepreneur. I hope my story inspires you to reflect on your own, because as Steve Jobs said, "We can't connect the dots looking forward. We can only connect them looking backwards." But when we do, we can better draw the dots that will lead us into the future we envision... on purpose.

In this episode, I’m chatting with Sophie Bujold, the Queen of Community @ Cliqueworthy, where she consults on community design for creative businesses. Sophie was a driving force behind my Create Your Purpose Collective community strategy way before it even existed in 2018! Listen to learn why an audience and a community are different, how to avoid common community-building pitfalls, and tactical tips to build your own community!

Meet Kira Lamb, a Classical Pilates Teacher, former professional dancer. She is also a Black woman who - as she put it - had a "cult-like" upbringing. In our conversation, she reveals the pivotal moment she chose to leave and the audacity that has led her to create her purpose - in and out of her business - ever since. This is a woman I admire and a conversation you don't want to miss!
