Speaking with Confidence with Cat Matson Impactful Presenters

Chenae Carey is an Intuitive Business Mentor bridging the gap between practical strategy and intuitive guidance for her clients. In this episode we have a frank and honest conversation about being authentic, the perils and ‘ick-factor’ of ‘bro-marketing’ and how to use intuition and practical strategy to create a business (or career) you love. 
 
Listen in to hear Chenae’s thoughts on: 
 
How to discern what is intuition and what is not 
How our subconscious beliefs can lead to self-sabotage, and how we can change our patterns 
Why it’s so important to combine practical strategy with intuition 
How stepping out of your comfort zone is so important to creating magic in your life

How do you impact 100,000 small business owners from a farm in regional NSW? That’s the question that drove Jenn Donovan of Social Media & Marketing to start speaking, first through her podcast and then from stages. 
 
Now she’s working towards impacting one million small business owners through her no-nonsense, fluff-free marketing advice. 
 
In this conversation Jenn and I discuss: 
The importance of NOT underestimating your ability to make a massive impact, even if you’re ‘just’ working from home 
Why marketing should be a priority for small business owners 
How speaking can be a POWERFUL marketing tool and how it can help you reach a larger audience 
Why, as a speaker, you only need to be a couple of steps ahead of your audience, and not the THE expert in your field 
Comparisonitis, and how Jenn has learned to focus on her own journey instead of comparing herself to others
