Doing Business Gently: Business Clarity and Personal Branding for Women with Online Service Based Businesses

Business Clarity, Alignment & Personal Branding for Women. ** Do you ever wonder if there is a different way to do business?  ** Have you ever felt like something was wrong with you because your business feels so hard? ** Or have you ever asked yourself, shouldn’t I know what I want to be when I grow up by now? Maybe you’re a massive introvert, shy, or considered an HSP, a highly sensitive person, or maybe you feel like you’ve never really fit into what and who the standard online business coaching says you need to be in your business. Does any of this sound familiar? I’m raising my hand as a founding member of that club. Welcome fellow misfit. Hey there. I’m Marta Goertzen, host of the Doing Business Gently podcast. If your business feels hard and nowhere near gentle, I’m glad you are here. This is a safe place where we will be talking about: ** Life business integration, and we approach that idea of integration through creating an aligned business that fits you, your values and priorities, your personality, and the current season of life you are currently in. ** We also do that by talking about finding business clarity so that you’re not constantly second guessing every decision that you make in your business. ** And maybe even more importantly, we are going to talk about working from a habit and a place of rest. ** From time to time, we’re also going to ask the question, where does our faith fit into our entrepreneurial journey as we are creating a gentle business? If you are ready for tips, ideas, resources, and engaging conversations on developing healthy business habits and routines to help you uncover, or maybe remember your entrepreneurial identity,  build a strong personal brand that grows with you and how to build a business based on your values and priorities, you are in the right place.  The goal of this podcast is to help women just like you develop online businesses that honors your need for rest, create a flexible and agile business that fits the current season of life you are in and the space to figure it all out.

A Few Thoughts About Why You Don't Need to Start the New Year with a Blank Slate
As we close out the year, many of us are bombarded with the message of a fresh start, start over, or start the New Year with a blank slate. 
But do you really need to wipe away everything you've learned and all the hard fought lessons we've fought in the previous year? 
In this week's podcast episode, "You Don't Need to Start the New Year with a Blank Slate," I’m sharing a few thoughts about this and why starting over isn't always the best approach.
I’m sharing why I’m not wiping the slate clean and taking the lessons I learned forward with me. 
We look at three compelling reasons why starting with a clean slate isn't the answer. 
I’ve learned hard lessons, good lessons, growing lessons in the previous year. 
I don’t want to create and explore new, I want to go all in on what I learned this year
Starting over takes way too much mental, physical and emotional energy. 
What to do instead? 
I’m sharing two simple steps we can take instead and share a practical and gentle approach for moving into the new year with intention and gratitude.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by the idea of starting over and eager to approach the new year with a sense of continuity and growth, this episode is for you.
Listen to the full episode on The Selah Entrepreneur Podcast to discover why starting the new year with a blank slate might not be the best approach and how important it is to acknowledge your progress and lessons learned in 2023.

In this episode, here are five keys you'll learn:
The benefits of choosing a word of the year as a gentler and softer approach.
How your word of the year gives added dimension to your business clarity journey.
Why your word of the year can become a foundational pillar for goal setting.

Have you ever stopped to consider what your boundaries and non-negotiables are in your business? In today’s episode, I’m sharing about setting healthy boundaries and non-negotiables to create a sustainable business that fits you well.
In my own entrepreneurial journey, it took time, but I learned to first establish healthy boundaries and then enforce them in my business. Needed changes for my business as I was close to burnout.  
These healthy boundaries lead me to understanding what my non-negotiables were and setting aside time for them. My list included deep thinking about the business and time for faith, family, and friends.
How do we keep these healthy boundaries and non-negotiables in place? 
Give yourself a break: Don’t try to catch-up. Be okay with days here and there that just don’t go the way we want. 
Let go of the expectations of others: We glorify busy. We fill our schedule, our work with many activities with things we are told that we should do in our business.
Schedule it: Get it on your calendar, block out that time, and honor that commitment to you.
Evaluate Often: And then we also need to evaluate these often.
If you struggle to define your own boundaries and non-negotiables, I invite you to consider your core values and how they can help in shaping these essential aspects of your business. 
Listen to the full episode on The Selah Entrepreneur podcast to gain valuable insights into establishing healthy boundaries and non-negotiables that will help you build a sustainable and fulfilling business.

Discover the 6 Tools You Need to Design a Business That Fits You!
Are you ready for a business that fits you, your personality, and the season of life you are in?
In this episode of The Selah Entrepreneur Podcast, I’m sharing the 6 essential tools you need to design a business that truly fits you. I understand the struggle of trying to figure out what you want to be when your business grows up.
Finding clarity is a journey of discovery. So is growing a business that works for you instead of you being the worker bee for it. When you take the clarity journey you gain the confidence to take the action steps you need to create a business you love and make an impact in the lives of those you serve. 
This clarity journey also helps you develop a solid set of tools you need to keep an eye on your business and how you are doing in it. These same tools will help you and your business grow and change as needed to continue to fit you as life, health, family, and your business changes. 
Do you have what you need to guide you on your business clarity and entrepreneurial journey? 
Here is a quick overview of the 6 tools: 
Get Clear About You and Your Business: Clarity doesn't happen in an instant; it's a journey of self-discovery and intentional work to understand and hear the calling on your heart.
Business Clarity Map: Chart out all that you know to be true about you and your business today, including core values, personality type, ideal clients, problem solving methods, and more.
Review Your Business Often: Conduct regular reviews to collect data and make informed decisions about your business.
Pray for Your Business: Incorporate prayer into your business planning and clarity journey.
Develop Restful Routines: Find ways to recharge mentally, physically, and creatively to do the work you're called to do.
Give Yourself a Break: Too often we get in our own way and often are our own worst critic!!
These 6 tools will become an invaluable part of your business and entrepreneurial life. But they need to be collected, developed, and then nurtured along the way and should not be ignored. 
Remember, creating a business that truly fits you is a journey, not a destination. Embrace the process and allow yourself the grace to grow and evolve along the way.

Let’s talk about the Importance of Selecting the Right Partners and Influencers for Your Business
How are you navigating all the information and opinions that come at you every day? Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of emails and social media posts vying for your attention, especially right now during the height of the 2023 Q4 selling season? 
In today’s episode, we are taking a look at the different partners and influences we allow into our business, and how important it is to choose the right ones. 
Coaches, teachers, mentors, and influencers can all have an impact on your business and personal life. In fact, in a very real sense, they become partners in your business. So it is essential that you be intentional about who you allow into your business world.
I’m sharing some of my own experiences and the struggles that I’ve faced in allowing too many voices to partner with me in my business and the loss of confidence and identity that came as a result.
We are looking at 3 criteria we all need to consider as we evaluate potential partners in our business. Things like: 
Do they have a business you even like? 
What about their core values and belief systems? 
Do they have a business style that grabs your attention or does it stress you out? 
At the end I’m issuing a challenge to start calming the noise coming at you from email and your social media feed. Listen in to hear and accept the challenge. (Don’t worry the episode will not self-destruct in 10-seconds after you listen in ;)!)
Join me as we define what a partner is and why we need to create our own decision filter to make sure we are letting in the right influence and opinions into our businesses.

When was the last time you were asked, “How are you doing? Really”?
And how did you answer? 
Running a business, no matter the type, is not a straightforward road. It's an adventure filled with highs and lows, moments of focus and distraction, and unexpected twists and turns. Just like in any personal development program, our clarity journey involves layers of discovery and answers that gradually unfold as we take action.
Your Business Clarity Journey is Your Own 
Do you ever find yourself comparing our journey to others? We need to remember that each business and individual experience is unique. We all face different challenges, be it health issues, familial responsibilities, mental health struggles, or the daily hurdles of entrepreneurship. 
As a result, we often find ourselves comparing our progress to someone else's highlight reel on social media. We must remember that everyone's journey is different, and there's no fixed timeline for growth and success.
Our business journeys are unique, filled with twists and turns. It's not a straight line, and that's OKAY! We need to stop comparing ourselves to others and embrace the adventure of our own path.
Comparison leads to self-doubt and discounting our own achievements. We need to STOP belittling what we're going through and acknowledge the hard work and dedication it took to get where we are today. 
Social media can be deceiving. Remember that what people show online is often a polished version of reality. Don't compare your chapter 2 or 3 to someone else's chapter 10. Your progress is valid, no matter the pace. 
It's essential to recognize and respect our own experiences without belittling or discounting what we're going through.
Clarity in business takes time. It's not an instant revelation but a journey of self-discovery and growth. Be patient with yourself and trust the process. Each step forward, no matter how small, is progress.
Next time you catch yourself comparing, ask yourself why and take a moment to reflect on how you're really doing. Embrace your unique journey, stop discounting your achievements, and celebrate the progress you've made.
Embrace your uniqueness, stay focused on your goals, and trust that clarity will come in due time.
As always, I’m here to support you in your entrepreneurial journey. If you have any questions, need guidance, or simply want to connect with like-minded individuals, don't hesitate to reach out. Together, we can navigate the ups and downs and create a thriving business that brings joy and fulfillment.
