Being an Introvert in an Extrovert Marketing World

Today, we're diving into a topic that's near and dear to my heart: Introverts vs. Extroverts. As most of you know, I'm an introvert myself, so this episode is for all of you who might feel like you're navigating an extroverted marketing world.
First off, let's clear up some misconceptions. When people think of introverts, they often picture someone who's shy, meek, or submissive. For extroverts, it's often outgoing, steamrolling, or abrasive. But honestly, these are just stereotypes I found on the internet. The real difference? It’s all about how we get our energy:
Introverts recharge by spending time alone or in quiet, low-stimulus environments.
Extroverts gain energy from being around other people, especially in lively, dynamic settings.
How to Know Where You Stand
If you’re not sure whether you’re an introvert or extrovert (or maybe somewhere in between), I highly recommend taking the Myers-Briggs 16 Personalities test. It’s free and super insightful. You might discover you're an INTJ like me, which means you're an introvert who loves strategic thinking and planning.
Being an Introvert in an Extroverted Marketing World
So, how can you thrive as an introvert in a world that often feels like it's made for extroverts? Here what we talk about in the episode:
How to leverage your deep thinking in strategy and connecting ideas.
When your observation skills can help you understand your audience better.
Find your strengths and shining where you excel.
Tips on outreach that would suit your introversion better.
What to consider when stretching your skills.
Remember, being an introvert is a superpower – you have a quiet power and thoughtfulness that can make a huge impact. So, lean into that, sharpen your skills, and don’t be afraid to show up for your business in your own unique way.
Thanks for tuning in, and I can’t wait to hear how you’re thriving as an introvert in an extrovert’s world!

5 Reminders to Ignore People's Opinions

Today's podcast topic comes directly from one of our listeners, Jess, who reached out with a powerful question: how to ignore other people's opinions. This is a topic that resonates deeply, especially for those in the early stages of business or anyone putting themselves out there in a vulnerable way.
We often find ourselves weighed down by the expectations and judgments of others, which can be paralyzing and detract from our growth and goals. Having worked with thousands of women entrepreneurs, I understand the struggle of overcoming these external pressures.
In this episode, we will explore five essential reminders to help you rise above the noise of other people's opinions and reclaim your path with renewed self-confidence.

A Not-So-Average Life

When you think about 'most people', most people are living an average life doing a bit more than the bare minimum. Going beyond that can feel daunting or out of reach. IT'S NOT. This episode will give you a new frame of reference. Minna shares with you statistics of the average people and here's the big conclusion: the average person is NOT great at taking care of themselves. If you do that: pour into yourself and you are already above average. It's all about starting here and seeing your progress.

How to Create a Template Week

Minna delves into the concept of a 'plug and play' week, a refreshing twist on the traditional 'ideal week'. Minna encourages you to craft a customizable baseline week that serves as a foundation for productivity and enjoyment as you operate week-to-week in your business and life.
She shares her personal weekly themes, from 'assessing mode' on Mondays to 'elimination mode' on Fridays, each tailored to suit her current priorities and lifestyle. Drawing from her experiences as a solopreneur and mother, Minna emphasizes the importance of adapting these themes to individual needs and seasons of life.
Throughout the episode, Minna offers insights into her workflow, including the transition from assessing and planning on Mondays to deep work and innovation on Thursdays. She also highlights the significance of carving out dedicated time for family and personal pursuits, such as her cherished 'Mama-daughter date' on Tuesdays.
As Minna guides you through her plug and play week, she underscores the value of flexibility and intentionality in shaping a week that aligns with personal and professional goals.
