The Co-Working Club Jessica Berry

Ever wondered whether you can run a business without Instagram?!

I’m joined by a returning guest for this week’s podcast episode, the wonderful Caroline Inspired! A yoga teacher based here in Nottingham.

Last time Caroline was on the podcast at the beginning of this year we chatted all about creating healthy habits with social media through establishing boundaries, being more intentional with the time you spend online and taking regular digital detoxes 📱

But back in May, Caroline announced to her community that she would be leaving Instagram…

The reaction she received was overwhelmingly supportive with so many fellow business owners sharing that they wished they could do the same but felt like they had no choice but to keep showing up and creating content for the platform.

I was SO keen to catch up with Caroline again to hear about what her life and business looks like post Instagram, in this episode we chat all about….

✨ The reasons that ultimately led her to making the decision to leave Instagram

✨ Whether leaving Instagram has had any tangible impact on her business and sales

✨ Why creating content for YouTube feels like a better fit and how she is building a community on the platform

✨ As well as the BIG question on everyone’s lips, will she ever return to Instagram again in the future…

This was SUCH an interesting conversation that I really hope you'll take a lot from, enjoy!

Ever thought about launching a membership?

In this week's episode I'm chatting to founder of The Manifestation Collective, Victoria Jackson! If you don't know her already, Victoria is a Certified Mindset Coach, EFT Practitioner and manifestation guide. She helps women who feel unfulfilled and out of alignment to transform into a new season of life through subconscious reprogramming, mindset coaching and guiding them through her signature manifestation teachings.

The Manifestation Collective is made up of 1-1 coaching, group programmes, a podcast and she's even written a book but in today's episode we're going to be honing in and focusing on just one area of her business and the realities of building and running a membership!

In the episode I chat to Victoria all about:

✨ How she organically grew a Facebook group to thousands of members and what led to her deciding to switch to a membership model instead

✨ How she found stepping into the role as a community manager 

✨ How she overcame limiting beliefs and fears during the launch of The Collective Membership

✨ How she learnt not to let members cancelling affect her self worth

✨ As well as her words of wisdom for anyone thinking about creating and launching a membership

I hope you enjoy the episode!

Are you finding running a business tough at the moment?

If so then today's podcast episode is for you!

My guest needs no introduction as I’m sure you all know who she is, but today I’m going to be chatting with teacher turned content creator turned Educator, Vix Meldrew!

It’s safe to say that there have been a fair few changes in the online world during 2022, from Instagram algorithm updates to the changes in the way people are spending time online to the shift in people’s spending habits

And all of this can combined can create a lot of worry for business owners, especially those who have built their communities online.

So I wanted to get Vix on the podcast today to provide some much needed reassurance to any listeners who are currently feeling disheartened or exhausted by running a business right now.

In the episode I chat to Vix all about:

✨ The shifts that she’s seen happening in the online business space over the past twelve months and what she thinks has caused such huge changes in people’s behaviour

✨ What we as business owners can focus on when it comes to creating content and reaching our audiences

✨ How to build a business based on ease and why that isn't a bad thing

✨ As well as how she is approaching content creation right now and her top tips to help you enjoy the process of showing up on social media again

As both Vix and I mention throughout the episode, we don’t have all of the answers but I really hope that our conversation helps to show you that you’re not alone in this - we are all navigating the same struggles and challenges as business owners right now, but we WILL get through them if we pull together!

I hope you enjoy the episode!

Hello! After a seven month unexpected hiatus from the podcast, I'm back with a new episode!

Lots has happened since I last spoke to you including renovating and launching The Co-Working Clubhouse, Nottingham's first female-only co-working space so I'm excited to get you up to speed in this real and raw business update episode.

From now until the end of the year, I'll be releasing weekly episodes and there will be lots of interviews with some exciting guests to share.

I hope you're as excited as I am that the podcast is back again!

Yes you read that right, I'm officially opening Nottingham's FIRST female-only co-working space!!

If you know the story of how The Co-Working Club was originally created then you'll know that it was born out of my own struggles navigating self-employment for the first time and the thing that really changed the game for me was connecting with fellow business owners and building a community around me 👭

With more of us than ever before setting up businesses and working from home, having a space that allows likeminded women to connect and collaborate with one another is absolutely invaluable and I'm beyond excited to be able to bring this opportunity to the Nottingham business scene ✨

The support I've received so far has been absolutely incredible and I feel ridiculously grateful to have the most amazing community of women cheering me on as I undertake this exciting (and let's be honest slightly scary) project 🥰

So now the word is out there, I guess the real hard work starts here...

Wish me luck!!

Do you find yourself picking up your phone without knowing exactly why?

Do you regularly fall into a scroll hole on Instagram and end up loosing hours of your day?

Do you often find yourself feeling down after looking at social media?

If you found yourself answering yes to any of those questions then today's conversation with my lovely guest, Caroline Inspired is EXACTLY what you're looking for.

Caroline is a yoga teacher based here in Nottingham who helps souls surf the waves of life through a yoga inspired lifestyle 🌊

Through implementing strict boundaries and taking a more intentional approach, Caroline has been able to create a healthier relationship with social media and she is passionate about educating others to do the same.

In today's episode I chat to Caroline all about:

✨How to take back control when it comes to utilising social media as business owners and how to use apps more mindfully

✨Why viewing social media as an energy exchange is such a powerful mindset switch

✨ How to take time away from social media without feeling guilty about it

✨As well as some boundaries to help you manage how much time you spend on social media AND more importantly how to stick to them!

I absolutely LOVED getting to chat to Caroline about this topic which I know for me anyway feels SO relevant right now and hopefully if you're ready to create healthier habits with social media in 2022, this conversation has been a great starting point for you taking action!
