I’m so excited to chat with DEI Consultant, Simone McNish. Her take on joy and courage in business is so refreshing and approachable. I love how our episode wraps with the concept of always benefiting from taking action and that even if you fail along the way, you are not a failure.
In this episode, we chat through:
- Staying flexible and adaptable over the years
- Shift from startups and tech marketing to DEI consulting
- Having the courage to start her business in the first place and exploring DEI to find her most successful offers
- Aligning with a vision that brings joy in the long term, including rest and relaxation
- Finding and creating community
- Checking in with yourself to inspire action
- Taking baby steps consistently to sustainably hit her goals
- Playlists for moods, simply because it’s fun
- Silencing that voice of doubt in your head (or from others) that makes you want to play small and stay in your lane
- How it serves us and the collective to avoid pricing as low as possible
- The idea that time is going to pass anyway, so you might as well take action
