Welcome to Episode 30 of the podcast, and our new look, feel and SOUND!

indset-focused episode, Nicky asks the 64 million dollar question question that plagues us all at some point in our lives: ‘Just what is stopping you?’

What is really stopping you right now from achieving everything that you ever thought was possible?

It's a big question. And it's one that Nicky admits not always knowing the answer to. But in this episode she invites you to start getting so much more curious about how you reach your next level, and, how you actually gain access to everything that is possible for you.

So my big question for you today is just what is stopping you? If we were to have so much fun with this, if we were to take the seriousness out of these really big questions, how would we get the answers that would actually spur us on?

What you can expect to hear in this episode of the #SSBPodcast:

If you were to have so much fun with accessing your next level what could that look like?

If we were to take the seriousness out of these really big questions, how would we get the answers that would actually spur us on to take action and move towards our goals?

How a lack of clarity can be the biggest blocker to manifesting your visions.

Walk through a gentle but powerful guided visualisation to help you manifest your goals.

Welcome to Episode 32 of the podcast, and our new look, feel and SOUND!

In this episode Nicky asks, ‘Do we ever really stop and take time to consider how far we’ve come?’

She challenges our ability to look at our own personal growth journey and fully honour, salute and luxuriously, and decadently take time to literally drink in how far we’ve come?

She explains how one of the huge HUGE ironies is we crack open a bottle of champagne so often to celebrate something - an event, an occasion and then it’s gone. It’s fleeting. But what happens when we STOP in the silence and truly celebrate?

What you can expect to hear in this episode of the #SSBPodcast:

Nicky asks ‘When did you really stop and ask yourself this question: how far have I really come?’

Do you bask in your growth? Truly acknowledge it?

Do you listen to others when they see your growth and tell you they can see how well you’re doing?

She explores ways we can all learn to stop and take a moment to truly acknowledge our own personal growth in order to achieve even more!

Welcome to Episode 31 of the podcast, and our new look, feel and SOUND!

Are you ready for adding another life and mindset tool to your bag? In this episode I declare:

What I think is a mindset superpower! And,

Am I going to be bold enough to say, you need to master this? Absolutely, yes!

Am I going to apologize for sticking my neck out? Heck no!

I'm so excited to talk to you about this today…

So this whole podcast is about what I want to call a new superpower that I have added to my own personal growth and mindset journey that I think you're going to absolutely love, once you get how it works. In fact, I'm going to stick my neck out and go as far as to say that I think it's been my best addition and personal growth tool to date.

What you can expect to hear in this episode of the #SSBPodcast:

Just what we can gain from learning to ‘notice’ more than we react

How you can find inner peace but building your mindset muscle to ‘observe’ rather than be drawn into a fraught emotional state

How being able to remain on the fringe of a highly-charged situation or conversation we protect our own emotional wellbeing

And just how we can enhance our own personal growth journey by using the ‘observing and noticing’ tools every single day.

Welcome to Episode 30 of the podcast, and our new look, feel and SOUND!

In this seasonal episode, Nicky shares her thoughts on the energy of the autumnal season and why she thinks this time of year is just as important for goals setting as New Years Resolutions.

She shares her findings from over seven years of coaching entrepreneurs and business owners and how she has notices that Autumn provides us with months when our goals REALLY seem to come alive and we actually kick into REAL action.

Welcome to Episode 29 of the SSB podcast!

Feel like you're stuck somewhere along a growth path but unsure just what is really holding you back?

In this episode, Nicola Wilkes, founder of SSB and the host of the Seriously Stylish Business Podcast, shares five things she believes are holding you back from getting what you want right now...

What you can expect to hear in this episode of the #SSBPodcast:

How boredom can literally block us from accessing our very 'best' that life and career has to offer us

Why the fear of taking that next step is your worst enemy

Turing the tables on the confidence factor

Welcome to Episode 28 of the podcast, and our new look, feel and SOUND!

Ever feel that you need to constantly be re-inventing yourself; launching something new; feel worn out by the constant pressure of having to be all things to all people, and most of all, tired from the frustration of not truly following your own dreams?

In this episode Nicola Wilkes, founder of SSB and the host of the Seriously Stylish Business Podcast, shares why the already highly acclaimed podcast has an upgraded look, and the reason behind the name change is revealed! She invites you to delve deeper as to why we constantly feel the need to reinvent ourselves and why it isn’t helping us move forward. She also shares her own thoughts and real-life experience on how to make your biggest goals a reality - even if you fear judgement and worry that without a crystal ball, you can’t make that big, bold move.

What if I could have it all? What if I gave myself permission to be and do more than I ever dreamed of? And ultimately, if yes, is the answer, WHAT is the question? What you can expect to hear in this episode of the #SSBPodcast:

Just what has been happening sharing what's been happening behind the scenes on her personal growth journey;

How you can be on the growth path with her;

Just what are we growing through at any one time?

How do we not rush these sometimes really sticky growth paths?

And just why are we talking about reinvention?

In this episode of The Empowered Business Woman Podcast I share with you how I've actually been taking a couple of days off - forced, not chosen! However, in that time I was actually inspired to pick up my headphones, press record and connect in with you because something occurred to me whilst I was taking time out and that was, as an entrepreneur with a busy lifestyle and a list of amazing things I am excited to achieve, put into action and bring to you, that I had to accept, one and for all, that I am indeed not a robot. And because I know what is personal is universal, I am guessing some of you might go through this kind of predicament too so I wanted to share it with you in real time because that's part of what this podcast is all about. It’s my way of connecting with you from such a place of honesty and realness in that moment, where I feel inspired to like say, pick up the headphones, get into this space and say, hey, does this ever occur to you or do you ever feel like this? And today was one of those moments.

So this episode very much asks the question of many entrepreneurs and business owners: ‘What do we do when we get the memo that we need to rest? What do we do when we're running busy lives, busy businesses, we're trying to do everything and not miss out on any of the opportunities yet we know we need to take a few days off to heal, recuperate and get better?’ Will everything stop? Will the world stop turning will my clients disappear? You know, I get the thoughts that might go around in your head. The supernatural they're normal. And in this episode we discuss these fears and how to move past them and perhaps still even grow our business whilst we sit back, press play on a Netflix series and wrap ourselves in a blanket!

Essentially, I share with you my thoughts on how to not let one bad day ruin your business - I hope you enjoy it.
