About 10 years ago, I was truly growing to dislike the career I chosen for myself. I wanted more out of life. I wanted to do something different. I wanted to be geographically independent. That’s when I started my research to jumpstart my next big adventure in life. And then I found it. I stumbled upon the word “Virtual Assistant.” It was a legit thing and not a get-rich-quick work from home scheme. It was hard for me to believe at first that I could create a business revolving around the office skills I already knew. The biggest resource I turned to back then was today’s guest, Tawnya Sutherland. Tawnya is the pioneer in the VA ecosystem with over two decades of experience in virtual assistance bringing to light the concept of virtual assistants. Not only is Tawnya a six-figure virtual assistant, but she is also creator of the VirtualAssistantCareer.com training system. Since 2003, Tawnya has taught thousands of people worldwide to start their own virtual assistance businesses—nobody’s been doing this longer. Tawnya has been featured across many popular media outlets, including Dr. Phil, Reader’s Digest, Chatelaine, Entrepreneur and Redbook. Now, the idea of working remotely isn’t so foreign as it once was. The realization that long-term virtual work is much more obtainable. Tawnya’s forward thinking has paved the way for thousands of people on their journey to living full through fun work. Continue the conversation.

Her love for knowledge led her to start her career in education and she went onto become one of the founders of a $20M startup.

Today’s guest to the Live Full Work Fun podcast is someone who is a nature lover like me and left the corporate world in pursuit of creating a lifestyle where she could be geographically independent. Chelsea Brinkley believes you can do great work from anywhere and that your life doesn’t have to revolve around an office building. This idea has made her a coach to remote workers and a hired gun for entrepreneurs who want to create a more efficient business by getting their systems and processes on track or bringing on a remote team member to delegate some work to. Before having her own business, Chelsea worked for several years as the Executive Assistant to the Chief Digital Officer of a successful multi-million dollar company near Nashville, TN. Nowadays you’ll find her traveling with her husband, son, and pup, looking for the next mountain to hike, and occasionally sipping an old fashioned on the deck of her Colorado cabin— all while coaching, serving clients, and blogging about this life she gets to live after breaking free from the corporate world.

Doing what you love can turn into a fulfilling career. Today’s guest to the Live Full Work Fun Podcast loved being a musician in his young life. But when it came time to make a career decision right out of high school, being from the Midwest, he was convinced it wasn’t likely that he could make a living as a performing artist. Paul Siebert chose a career in as a manufacturing engineer. After marriage and 3 children, he still couldn’t shake the feeling that music was his passion. When his youngest daughter was in high school, he took the leap to make a huge career shift to follow his musical passion. He started his solo touring full time in 2004 with the release of his first solo album “Echoes of an Era”, accompanied by the re-release of an earlier album “Reason to Play” where Paul had been the lead guitarist and vocalist for the band by the same name. Also promoting a wedding music CD, a Christmas CD, and a live version of the “Echoes” album. His interests had changed over the years. He was now a fully acoustic solo show using up to as many as 8 different acoustic instruments and as little electrical support as possible, making his live performance his home. His songwriting abilities, musicianship and knowledge of pop music of all genres has brought his music into the lives and homes of the broadest audiences of any regional performer the Midwest has ever known. In this episode, Paul shares his ups and downs when it comes to building a business of live performances. Even through a time where live events were shut down, Paul perseveres and shapes his business to stay true to himself, his values, and the lifestyle he’s created for himself.

Maintaining a consistent production schedule can be hard if you don’t have your systems down. In this episode, I share my 7-phase implementation process when it comes to podcast production. Chunking down a big project like producing a podcast is important in order to move forward. Chunking down the podcast production project must be drilled down to one step at a time, one episode at a time. You must keep your “why” you want to be a podcaster in your line of sight because implementation is hard, but with the right systems, it doesn't have to be. Here’s the 7-phases of implementation that my team and I go through for each podcast episode for this show as well as for our clients shows. Listen to the episode for a deeper explanation of each phase as it pertains to podcast production. Phase 1: Plan Phase 2: Create Phase 3: Edit Phase 4: Design Phase 5: Schedule Phase 6: Verify Phase 7: Report You may do every single phase yourself or delegate some pieces.

Intellectual property is a heavy subject. IP attorney, Steven Thrasher, joins the show and breaks this complicated subject down in an easy-to-understand way. He's known for helping create his client’s intellectual property fortress. Steven is an engineer, inventor, entrepreneur, and attorney. When he was in college, he had a cool idea for an invention and had a terrible experience when it came to figuring out the patent process. The way I see it, he was scammed for a whole lot of money and his invention still wasn’t protected. Because of this experience, he was bound and determined to help other budding entrepreneurs avoid feeling the way he did about his intellectual property… lost and unprotected. He went to law school to learn more about the nuances of IP law and has created his own system helping small businesses with protecting their inventions and intellectual property. He stops competitors from stealing your customers and keeps your online business from being the victim of a take-down notice or copyright troll attack. He does this while running marathons, hiking up mountains on remote continents, and building his own online businesses and information products. If you see him on a laptop at the rim of the Grand Canyon, he just might be in the middle of working on all of these. My conversation with Steven was full of great info of not only what we should be aware of when it comes to intellectual property, but also a peek behind the scenes of why he chose to leave a big law firm in lieu of creating his own firm. In this episode you’ll learn: What the differences are between trademarks, copyrights, and intellectual property The two important buckets of consideration when it comes to intellectual property The biggest mistake most people make when it comes to protecting their intellectual property Continue the conversation.
