    How to Be Yourself in Your Business

    How to Be Yourself in Your Business

    What’s holding you back from being yourself in your business? Is it fear that no one will want to work with you? Or that you’ll have to please everyone in order to make any money? It can be hard to truly be yourself, but it is so necessary.

    The first step is understanding what’s holding you back from being yourself and then letting that go. Your business cannot grow the way you want it to if you are not showing up as your authentic self. You need to be yourself!

    When you step into who you are meant to be, the passion and confidence for your business will start to shine. It allows the ideas to flow through and clarity will come to you around the direction you need to take. But it all starts with being yourself.

    It has been ONE year of content for the podcast and in this episode, I’m sharing how you can step into becoming your most authentic self in your business. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this!

    3 Ways to Improve Your Financial Situation

    3 Ways to Improve Your Financial Situation

    Are you struggling to pay off debt? Or maybe you have financial goals that you want to hit but they just seem so far away from reality? Perhaps you have tried cutting your spending or even picked up a side job, but still have fallen short with getting ahead of your bills. If so my friend, I want to encourage you that YOU are on the right track to improve your financial situation.

    You may be surprised to know that fixing your financial situation is as simple as 3 methods: decrease your expenses, increase your income, or do both. But before you close out this page, follow me, because HOW you apply each method is where the magic resides. 

    And if you decide to do any of these, it’s important for you to know how to apply them strategically to your financial situation. I know - because I’m speaking from personal (and professional) experience.

    You see, I was fortunate to learn at a young age that simply making more money or cutting back on spending would not automatically pull anyone out of debt. It wasn’t until I started tracking my own spending that I knew exactly what I needed to do to fix my financial situation.

    “The more money you make, the more money you spend.” - Laura Royer

    In this week’s podcast, I walk you through these three methods and discuss specifically HOW you can use each to improve your financial situation. I share the importance and necessity of tracking your spending before and during your financial journey.

    If you have tried it all, but nothing has worked, trust me friend, give this episode a listen. I’ve seen a lot in my professional career, and if the strategies I share on this episode worked for me and thousands of others, I know they will work for you too. 

    Here’s a sneak peek of the convo:

    • [2:10] Why tracking your spending is the first thing you need to do before you try to fix any financial situation.

    • [11:26] How to strategically determine what expenses need to be cut and which ones need to be stretched. 

    • [20:18 ] The ONE tool that has been a financial game-changer for Laura and 1000s of her clients. 

    • [24:09] When increasing your income, how to know how much money you need to make to fix your financial situation.

    6 Money Affirmations to Shift Your Financial Situation

    6 Money Affirmations to Shift Your Financial Situation

    Do you have money mantras? Money mantras are short and powerful statements that are created and stated aloud in order to attract abundance in your life. Money mantras, or affirmations, are used to shift your financial situation.

    I have definitely had my share of money mantras in my lifetime. However, in the past 10 years or so, I started to shift from “mantras” to declarations - because life and death IS in the power of the tongue.

    Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. - Proverbs 18:21

    So now I speak LIFE using God’s word into my life - especially my money and business transactions. This is why I am so excited about this week’s Catch Your Money podcast episode because I am sharing with you some money affirmations that have legit shifted my financial situation.

I mean, after all, this whole podcast show is about being kingdom-minded with your business and with your money so that you can give to the causes that are near and dear to your heart.

    So let's go ahead and dive right on in because I can't wait to share with you all of them.

    Here’s a sneak peek of the convo:

    • [01:44] This affirmation was straight from the Holy Spirit to me and has been an ultimate game-changer with both my money and business transactions.

    • [09:26] If being debt-free is important to you, then this affirmation will set you up for being free from debt for good and start being what God’s word says to be with money.

    Do you need a way to stay focused so you can manifest the goals you’ve set for yourself this year? Or maybe you desire to level up more into the person God is calling you to be? Well, you can do it easily by choosing a word of the year that will guide you to make that happen.

    For the past seven years, I have chosen a word of the year. I have experienced growth within myself and have developed a closer relationship with God. I have seen the success that I honestly thought was just a dream become my reality.

    Having a word of the year was a game-changer for my life, business and money. – Laura Royer

    Your word of the year can be a game-changer for you as well! Being intentional, with a vision for your year can help you choose the right word for motivation, focus and help you go “next level” in becoming the person God created you to be.

    In this week’s episode, I walk you through the exact process I use to select my word. This process is not difficult, but you will need to find some quiet time for reflection and meditation. By the end of this process, you are sure to have your word for the year.

    Grab a notebook and pencil to jot down some notes for this episode. Also, check out the resources I’ve included below to help you get well on your way.

    What’s the Story You Want to Tell about 2021?

    What’s the Story You Want to Tell about 2021?

    Imagine it’s December 31, 2021 and you’re about to ring in the new year. You’re reflecting back about all the things that happened in 2021 what do you want to say happened? In other words, what’s the story you are telling to others about the year you just finished?

    Now you might be thinking, that’s a bit weird Laura. I’m still trying to forget 2020. I get it my friend which is why thinking about how you want this year to end up is more important than ever.

    If 2020 taught us anything it was that we need to have a plan that we can pivot within. And if we don’t have that plan or framework, pivoting will be much harder.

    So on this week’s episode of the Catch Your Money Podcast, I am encouraging you to start this year off right and intentionally write down now the story you want to tell about 2021.

    “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

    Mark 9:23

    So grab your pen, paper, get into a quiet place, and join me as I walk you through the power of intentionally writing that story through imagery, quotes, scriptures, and anything that you will be able to see or check in with throughout the year to be sure you are staying on track to complete that story.

    Timestamps:

    • [2:01] The #1 question to keep in front of you to help you approach 2021 differently.
    • [9:25] Laura breaks down 7 questions to ask to help intentionally create your 2021 vision.
    • [20:40] 9 categories to consider when putting together your 2021 vision board.

    Determining Your Next Move: 5 Questions from Andy Stanley

    Determining Your Next Move: 5 Questions from Andy Stanley

    Do you struggle with decision-making in your business or with money because of the pressure and uncertainty? Maybe you are scared of the outcome if you make the wrong decision, or perhaps you have made too many decisions you have regretted in the past. If determining your next move is weighing on a big decision, it is time for you to learn how to ask yourself the right questions before proceeding.

    As an entrepreneur and consultant, I face many big decisions that are extremely intimidating. The future success of my business hinges on some of these decisions, so I absolutely feel the pressure and fear that comes naturally in decision-making.

    Recently I listened to an interview with Andy Stanley on the EntreLeadership podcast which really helped me navigate through some big decisions I needed to make. In the interview, Andy laid out five critical questions that anyone can use for better decision-making and determining your next move.

    I feel so much freedom that has come through asking these questions to help me make better decisions, bring me peace and eliminating turmoil. – Laura Royer

    With these questions, you will be able to make decisions that will lead to more success and fewer regrets. You will feel less stress and pressure and be able to come to a solid decision more quickly than you usually do.

    In this week’s episode, I discuss how I am using Andy’s five questions to move past my own indecision and fear of making a decision as it relates to important decisions about my business and money in 2021 and will lay out how you can do the same.

    So if you are stuck in a rut of indecision and fearful of making the wrong move, listen in to this week’s episode. Use my experience using the five questions to lead you through determining your next move.

    Is running your business keeping you so busy that you actually struggle to enjoy your business? Many business owners often find themselves bogged down and frustrated by the number of tasks that remain undone in their businesses because there is “not enough time in the day” to complete them. Establishing systems for your business is the best way to alleviate these frustrations and allow you to reclaim your time.

She is sharing her tips on where and how to get started when establishing systems so you can get some “time back” and focus on the tasks that only YOU can do.

    Aligning Your Spiritual Gifts with Your Business with Damita McGhee

    Aligning Your Spiritual Gifts with Your Business with Damita McGhee

    A high priority for you as a Christian should be knowing the spiritual gifts given to you by God and how to use them. As an entrepreneur, it’s especially important to know how to operate your business using these gifts as well as building it off biblical principles. Aligning your spiritual gifts with your business is exactly what you need to focus on for it to be profitable and successful.

    I understand that you may struggle with understanding your gifts much less how to align them in your business. Although God provides direction for you, the noisy world we live in, often drowns His voice out.

    So the first thing you need to do is tune out all of the noise around you, deepen your faith in God and lean more into His calling for you. From there, you can take action in faith to allow alignment to happen.

    “Faith is not you just thinking about something. Faith is an action that you take.” - Damita McGhee

    This week I have a special guest who can teach and inspire you how to move more in alignment. Damita McGhee is a Certified Professional Coach who works with christian business women in aligning their spiritual gifts with their businesses. She helps entrepreneurs go from where they are to where God wants them to be.

    Are you ready to be where God wants you to be? If you cannot answer a definitive ‘yes’ to this, then tuning into this week’s episode is a must!

    My friend, it is time for you to start putting in the work God desires from you.

    Here’s a sneak peek of the convo:

    • [3:27] How Damita accidentally became an entrepreneur and eventually shifted into being a business coach and mentor.
    • [6:39] Damita shares the beauty of being on a path she never would have chosen for herself.
    • [14:09] The importance of being quiet and listening to God when we need to be redirected.
    • [19:33] What you can expect when you are actually putting in the work God desires from you.
    • [29:06] How to open up, be receptive and obedient to God’s calling when aligning your spiritual gifts with your business.
    • [36:00] Where most Christians struggle in their walk with God.
    • [42:38] Damita’s gift to you if you need help finding your spiritual gifts.
