Episode 6: Making the Leap

Welcome to Season 2 of Creative Reboot, the podcast for creative souls, small business owners, side hustlers and dream chasers!
We're over halfway through the season! This week we thought we’d have a good dive into making the leap – it’s an emotive and sometimes frustrating expression, but it’s something we all go through, so we thought we’d tackle it. We talk about that icky feeling you sometimes get right before taking a leap of faith, as well as the joy and pleasure of doing it. And just about everything else in between. Listen in for Carla's bizarre analogy about "the snake" and our tips and strategies if you're on the cusp of taking your own leap in the near future.

Welcome to Season 2 of Creative Reboot, the podcast for creative souls, small business owners, side hustlers and dream chasers!
This week's episode is a beautiful conversation with the very lovely Louise Livingstone. Louise talks to her heart, leads her business with her heart, and is the founder of the Heart Sense Research Institute.
She tells us about looking at the world differently, and experiencing awareness of the world through more than just her body and mind – with her heart. You definitely want to listen to this one even if you normally just skim the show notes – there is SO much good stuff in here!
Trigger warning – there is mention of dark thoughts and suicide in the first ten minutes of this podcast.

Episode 4: Professionalism

Welcome to Season 2 of Creative Reboot, the podcast for creative souls, small business owners, side hustlers and dream chasers!
This week it’s a bit of a ranty episode. Because we believe you can be professional by being yourself, even though the colour, swearing and personality we infuse into our respective businesses are actively discouraged in the working worlds we’ve left behind!
You should know, we have absolutely no issue or judgement on how anyone at all chooses to dress or express themselves. But we’re not keen on people who want to be a bit more dramatic being forced to be subdued, or vice versa.
We share a whole bunch of stuff in this episode about our own experiences and we'd love to hear yours too! Come and join us in our Facebook group (search for 'Creative Reboot Group') and tell us about your own experiences of professionalism!

Episode 16: An Interview with Megan Andersen from Rogue Bookkeeping

Welcome to Ep. 16 of Creative Reboot, the podcast for creative souls, small business owners, side hustlers and dream chasers.
We've got another great guest on for this episode. The awesome Megan Andersen from Rogue Bookkeeping rocked up to talk to us about all things money and numbers. And boy does this woman love her numbers! It might seem like an odd topic for a creative podcast, but we thought it was one worth finding out more about. We don't know about you, but as creatives we are more than a little bit afraid of numbers at times, even though we know we shouldn't be! It's an awesome episode, probably more sweary than usual but definitely full of awesome chat as always!

Episode 15: Creative Confidence

Welcome to Ep. 15 of Creative Reboot, the podcast for creative souls, small business owners, side hustlers and dream chasers.
We thought it was about time that we went back to our roots and talked about something specifically related to creativity! In this episode, we talk all about creative confidence - what we think that is, whether we have it, how to develop it and, as always, we talk about the times we haven't had it. It turned into quite the lengthy discussion so do grab yourself a lovely hot cuppa and curl up with this one. Then head on over to the website and let us know what you thought!

And we've got a bunch of awesome resources for you to have a look at after the episode is finished. Dive in, have a listen and come and join our communities. We'd love to chat with you :-)
