#214: Master Your Mindset: Three Essential Actions for Digital Course Creators
Not for the first time I heard an entrepreneur sharing that something was hard for them and the other person said that they thought it was easy.
That kind of comparison makes entrepreneurship hard because we start to wonder what we are missing, if we aren’t cut out for the path we’ve chosen, or even if we are smart enough to make a go of our business.
We’ve all heard the saying, “Comparison is the thief of joy.”
The truth is that when we compare ourselves to others it can steal our joy faster than a toddler can grab a fourth cupcake off the party table.
Mindset is one of the biggest factors in entrepreneurial success, in fact at one point this podcast was called the Entrepreneur Mindset Podcast. That is how important mindset is to being a successful digital course creator, but it is a lifelong journey.
#213: 3 Steps to Take Before Your Digital Course Launches (Making Money without a Following or Email List)
One of the most asked questions I receive when I’m coaching my digital course creator clients is how can I make money fast?
Often when we are at the beginning of a new piece of business or are flat out new to business there is a very real need to earn some money.
But how do we do that? The answer isn’t what you’d expect here on the Digital Course Creator Podcast, but it is the answer I give to 90% of my clients when we work together. I’ve seen it work time and again for not just adding to a bank account and creating a little buffer, but also creating so much clarity for where the business should go and where you want it to go in the future.
It will save you mis-steps and hopefully a lot of heartache as you realize what you thought you wanted and what you thought others needed wasn’t really the answer.
#212: Being a Digital Course Creator during a Natural Disaster: What do you do when you don’t have power or internet?
A lot of times we talk about having to troubleshoot a failed launch, a course that flops, or the tech issues that seem to follow us around like a pesky sibling who swears they aren’t touching us.
But what about the times when things are quite literally out of our control? What do we do then to set ourselves apart as course creators committed to our audience and our own well-being?
In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, this has been on my mind a lot and today we are going to talk about the mindset that we need during the times when we don’t have control over what happens.
I will say that this episode might be hard to listen to, I’m going to try my best to keep it focused on mindset, but I will talk about the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and how our family handled the situation to not only serve clients, but also to maintain our well-being.

#209: Minding Your Money as a Digital Course Creator
Fall is the time of year when many entrepreneurs find themselves checking their checking account balance, their running credit card balance and trying to figure out what to invest in for their business. This is especially true because so many amazing things launch in the fall months and there are some spectacular Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals that will pop up.
Unless you are one of the entrepreneurs with endless pots of money, these are things that need to be planned out. And you know from Episode 208 that I think every course creator should be buying and learning from other course creators.
This brings the inevitable question of what courses to invest in. After all, we can’t go into endless debt nor can we just continue to figure things out on our own year after year.
Today I’m going to share some insights that I’ve had over the past few years of being immersed in the entrepreneurial online course space that will help you avoid some of the same mistakes that I’ve made and instead use your money and time in a way that leads to success.
After all, it is nearly impossible to build a successful and profitable business if we are stuck in a vacuum without outside ideas, teachings, and input.
