76: Expanding Your Courage Boundary by Franziska Iseli

Today, we continue the conversation with someone shifting the landscape of what it is to be a woman in business.  We loved her on the show last year and now she is back!  Transcending her “Marketing Mentoring” Agency Basic Bananas, based out of Sydney, Australia, Franziska Iseli is creating movements like “Moments of Humanity” and writing books like “The Courage Map” exalted by the world’s most well-known adventurer Sir Richard Branson! In a sneak peak into this guide to Courage, she writes “Courage is your best ally in helping you live your life fully. Courage supports you as you face meaningful challenges in life, make better decisions, and stay true to yourself when you’re tempted to give in.” She goes on to specify: “Everyone has plenty of ideas and dreams to live an exceptional life. What some of us lack is the courage to turn those ideas into reality and pursue our dreams with gusto.” This is why her book details how to EXPAND YOUR COURAGE BOUNDARIES!You can see why we brought her back to the show – she clearly has a story to share and lessons to bestow on us all.Franziska…as promised, here we are on Take 2 of having you light us up on the show…The Goods on Franziska:Franziska is a maverick entrepreneur, leading marketing strategist, mad adventurer, author and the co-founder BasicBananas.com, Oceanlovers.com, MomentsofHumanity.com, TheBusinessHood.com and SaltyLipsBand.comIn 2013 Franziska was awarded the NSW Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award recognising her innovation, creativity and philanthropic involvement.A Swiss born Australian (or Swaussie) and a true visionary, no challenge seems to be too big for Franziska.
