Working Through The Tangles with Marija Dobratic
EToday, we’re re-airing episode 125, when I sat down with my client, Marija Dobratic. She runs a program called Untangle, designed to help her clients work through the tangles of life. In this episode, we talk about Untangle. At that time, it was geared toward college students. She then went on to focus on imposter syndrome. And she’s currently focusing on body image with a specific point of concern: belly shame. And we’re sharing it with you today because Marija has absolutely flourished in SellingU! Witnessing her transformation has been such a beautiful experience. In the last year, Marija has gone from absolutely hating the concept of sales and being wildly uncomfortable talking about her business (not to mention the fear and shame around accepting monetary compensation for her work) to someone who regularly attends networking events, is deeply engaging with her social media followers in the comments of her content, and is experimenting with ads to get her Belly Quiz in front of more women who need it. (Which, by the way, is right here: https://7x8bq2l3ozc.typeform.com/bellyquiz?typeform-source=www.marijadobratic.com) Sign up for SellingU at bit.ly/SellingU Check out Marija’s work at MarijaDobratic.com

She’s a woman of many hats and has over 3 years of experience as a virtual assistant and untold years in myriad other supportive roles, working with businesses and entrepreneurs to keep everything running smoothly.

And we’re sharing it with you because Nicolassa is one of your experts in the SellingU Biz In A Box one-day virtual summit!

116. Scarcity, Sufficiency, and Abundance: A Conversation with Rachelle Siebke - Money Coach
EIn this episode, Keli chats with Money Coach Rachelle Siebke about abundance, sufficiency, and scarcity and how Rachelle has taken to thinking of these as positive, neutral, and negative – not in terms of good/bad, just on a spectrum, instead of an ON/OFF switch. They talk about avoidance of scarcity and abundance as an ascension of “enoughness” as well as how we’ve been taught that false scarcity is the way to abundance. But, what if instead we were taught to trust our own sufficiency, to look at sufficiency as okayness, to use it as a ladder thought/bridge to the abundance side of the dial? Why were we not taught that? Sufficiency is where we mostly live. Who actually benefits from “traditional” financial advice – “Money doesn’t grow on trees”, “Save for a rainy day”, or “Don’t spend it all in one place”? Rachelle works with women who want to be smart with their money. Women who want someone to show them how to manage their finances so that they can make confident decisions based on how they want their life to look and feel — not just a number in the bank. She shows them how to get more of what they want while doing more of what they love. She says her business is feminist AF because “I’m literally building my life right now, exactly the way that I want it to be. I work with the coolest women and have met women from all over the world, who do deep, meaningful change work. It’s incredible. We’ve created our own job titles. I get to take all my unique interests and skill sets and offer them up to other women, women just like me who are heart-centered and purpose-driven and have a unique set of skills and do good in the world. When they are able to combine their unique skill sets + set up money habits + routines that serve them in their homes and in their businesses, their work becomes more sustainable. It’s my mission to create well-resourced women, women who have the time, money, energy, information, and decision-making muscles to live, love, or leave without restriction.” Find Rachelle on Instagram @rachellesiebke.moneycoach, on Facebook @RachelleSiebke.MoneyCoach, and her website: rachellesiebke.com
