Natalie Sisson's Quest For Freedom - Experiments In Personal, Financial, Physical, Business, Relationship And Financial Freed

This week is all about CELEBRATION! My book, The Freedom Plan, is two years old, and I couldn’t be prouder. The book was actually created off the back of a best-selling online course. Why? Let’s take a look:What if I told you that you can create your own Freedom Plan? So that you can earn more, work less, and be free? Does that sound too good to be true? Well, it ain’t! There are hundreds of thousands of people out there who’ve gone off and figured out their own route in business and in life, based on what they already know, the skills they already have and more importantly, the lifestyle they desire.I’ve spent years researching this and discovering how different people can achieve these goals. And then I wrote a book about it! So, that’s what we’re looking at today on the UNTAPPED podcast.Before we dive in, it’s important to tell you about a moment in my life that I’ll never forget. I’d developed knowledge about social media in a tech start-up that I’d created. And I realised that I could take all the k

Do you believe that you can manifest miracles? Or are you feeling lost, tired, and not loving the life that you’ve built? I believe you can manifest miracles in your everyday life. Yes, you, you gorgeous thing! That’s what tapping into your full potential is all about. I know if you stay connected to your vision and start taking action from that place, you can’t help but create your dream reality. I am a huge fan of envisioning your life and business dreams in vivid detail, and seeing and feeling them so vividly, that they become real to you, and actually happen.Over the years I’ve done this in winning a Bodysculping Championship as a complete novice, writing and publishing my first ever Bestselling Book, getting to speak on a TEDx stage, having a six-figure launch, meeting my dream man, and more - all through the power of manifesting.That’s why I know you’ll love my kindred spirit Lana Shlafer, who knows exactly how to manifest miracles. Her story and the wisdom she shares with us in this episode are tr

Here’s something I never thought I’d say: you can absolutely go from entrepreneur to a millionaire CEO in four steps. And they’re four pretty easy steps. They just take a lot of YOU to get them done. But YOU are awesome. So, let’s smash this.What is the difference between being a lifestyle entrepreneur and being a 7-figure CEO? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.At least, there doesn’t have to be. A lifestyle entrepreneur is defined as “an individual who creates a business for the purpose of changing their lifestyle instead of making profits.” But we are not definitions in a dictionary, are we? Hell, no. As someone who spent nine years as a lifestyle entrepreneur, I’ll say it again: HELL NO to that.And I say it in my UNTAPPED podcast this week too.Here’s why: there is no reason why you can’t have your cake, and eat it. Yes, you can focus on your lifestyle, work 20-25 hours a week, and spend the rest of your time exploring the city you’re in. But you can also make a (BIG) profit if you operate a great business, and you’r

Do you consider yourself a leader even if you’re just starting out in your business?I believe the moment you choose to follow your own path and show up in what you are truly believe in and are skilled at, is the moment you become a leader.You don’t have to be famous, an expert or have 10,000 Instagram followers to be a true leader. It’s about being committed to your goals, being a lifelong learner, and truly being intentional about what action you’re taking.That’s why I’ve brought in  internationally recognized leadership coach, Katie Anderson, on the UNTAPPED podcast to discuss what it means to be a leader. Katie went from a traditional corporate background in academia and healthcare operations, before becoming a leadership coach and consultant on her own terms. She is well versed in leadership internationally, as she has lived in 6 countries herself, and is getting ready to pack her bags again to live in Mexico with her family.Katie’s biggest lessons in leadership came from her time living in

Having an aligned purpose in life is something everyone wants, but not everyone understands. In fact finding your purpose in life can feel like a bit of a puzzle, especially if you’re feeling stuck in life.You might be wondering where to even begin to find your purpose.I think your authenticity is where your purpose really lies. But I know, if you’re looking for your life purpose, authenticity can feel just as far out there to really tap into.In this week’s episode of UNTAPPED, I’m sitting down with celebrity manifestation and business coach Shanna Lee, to talk about how to find your purpose in life.I think the number one mistake people make when looking for their life’s purpose, is that they mistake purpose for a life that looks good on the outside. Because of that, people spend so much time searching for purpose outside of themselves and they miss what’s been under their nose this entire time.Our guest today understands that crossroad. Shanna went from being a very successful real estate agent to a soul ali

Do you feel that you have given away all of your best work for free? Let’s put a stop to that immediately! It’s time to charge what you are worth and be a profitable business owner!When I first started The Suitcase Entrepreneur, I spent 6 months giving away stuff for free. In a way it was great! I had an audience that absolutely loved my content, they eagerly awaited my next share. They were always grateful for everything I was giving them. I can honestly say that they knew me, they liked me, and they absolutely trusted me.The only problem was, I had a goal to build a profitable business that sustained the life of freedom I wanted and I had no paid offers, I didn’t even have a list at this time! Free does not equal profit… no matter what way you spin it.I knew I had to change this and start charging in order to reach my goal. So I worked hard creating my first paid offer, and when I launched it, I realized something… I built an audience that expects everything for nothing.Tune into this week’s solo episo

Where am I settling and where do I want to expand?Which le

 What if you could step out onto the stage of life, into the full spotlight of your gifts, and profoundly impact your ideal audience every time by finding your powerful voice?Finding your powerful voice as an entrepreneur is often one of the most difficult challenges that we face.But is it difficult because we have hidden our ability to access our powerful feminine power voice, and given way to an inner patriarchal model that causes us fear and self-doubt?Can an inner exploration of our feminine talents and qualities improve not only our life and business but also change the world around us in a truly meaningful way?Don't worry; I am not going to leave you hanging with these tantalizing open-ended questions.My lovely guest, Emma Back, is here to share some of her insights on this fascinating subject.

Scaling you and your revenue, without scaling the amount of work you do is the power of online courses, and the ultimate dream for most entrepreneurs. You get to teach what you know and love, make an impact in lots of people’s lives, while earning an income that isn’t 100% reliant on you showing up live and doing the work.Picture yourself sitting in any location your heart desires, sipping on whatever drink you fancy, while your business makes money for you-pretty cool, right?Now you might be thinking that everyone and their dog are launching an online course right now, but the good news is that there’s always room for you.You have something to teach, that others will find valuable, and pay you for.

Have you ever wanted to change an industry that you love from the inside out?Do you want to be the change that you want to see in the world?

Do you believe that you can build your dream team, one that cares as much about your business as you do?And that maybe just maybe you can hire people who do the things that you think you do best, better than you? It's been a goal of mine for several years to build my dream team. You know the type of high-performing, high trust team that will help me on my aim to build a million dollar revenue business by the end of 2023.Yet the biggest mindset shift for me to do this, has been to get out of the way, and relinquish control, surrender to trusting people I bring into my business and their skills.I'm pretty sure I'm not the only entrepreneur who struggles with letting go, and handing your baby over!The other thing you need to know, before you start hiring team members, is your best return on investment and your superpowers. Ask yourself:What do I do best, that only I can do?What can I give up and delegate?What needs to change in order to scale?Do I need these people in-house or can I outsource
