Defeating Sally the Self-Saboteur with Elaine Turso
Elaine Turso built her business on giving other businesses a makeover — brand, website, and CRM, all pulled into alignment for next-level growth. But before any of that works, you have to actually be visible, and Elaine says the thing standing in the way is rarely strategy. It's self-sabotage. In this episode, she introduces us to "Sally" (yes, her self-sabotage has a name and a very specific parking spot), breaks down how one piece of content can fuel weeks of platform-specific posts without ever feeling repetitive, and shares why chasing likes is a trap most of us fall into anyway.About Elaine Turso Elaine Turso gives your business a makeover, focused on brand, website & CRM, all aligned for next-level growth. She's a Business Makeover Specialist and CRM Collaboration Partner.🔑 Key TakeawaysSelf-sabotage is often the real reason people avoid visibility — Elaine names hers "Sally" and has a physical trick (mentally putting her in the trunk of the car) for not letting her drive.One piece of content — a video or blog post — can become the foundation for weeks or months of platform-specific posts, because each platform has a different purpose and deserves different framing.Use AI as an assistant, not a replacement: feed it a transcript for ideas, then rewrite everything in your own voice.Give any new visibility effort a "good college try" — six months minimum — and take a snapshot of your starting numbers so you have something real to measure against.Stop chasing vanity metrics. Comments and shares matter more than likes, because engaging with people who comment pushes your content back out to more people.Every piece of content needs an intention and a clear call to action — posting without one means you won't get a return on it.✔️ Connect With Elaine TursoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/elaine.tursoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elaineturso/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elaineturso/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@elainetursoFree gift — The One with the Follow-Up Strategy (video + worksheet): https://www.elaineturso.com/follow-up✔️ Connect With Host Andrea StenbergWebsite: https://www.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreastenberg/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreastenberg/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/andreastenberg?sub_confirmation=1Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBabyBoomerEntrepreneurFree Courage to Be Visible class: https://my.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/courage-to-be-visible-training💖💖 Love the show?

The Voice Behind the Voices You Trust
For 30+ years, Erik K. Johnson has coached radio hosts and podcasters on the one thing most of us skip when we're trying to be visible: being ourselves, out loud, on purpose.In this episode, Erik shares why people don't come back for your six steps to success — they come back for you — and breaks down exactly which stories to tell, how many you actually need, and how to turn a podcast guest spot into real relationships (and real clients). If you've ever felt like you have to "get to the meat" and skip the personal stuff, this conversation will change how you think about your content completely.About Erik K. JohnsonThe Voice Behind the Voices You Trust – Erik K. Johnson is a nationally recognized talent coach, on-air personality, and radio program director. With a career spanning over three decades, Erik has been at the forefront of radio and podcasting, helping professionals transform their content into compelling narratives so they become someone worth listening to. He has guided countless leaders and presenters to elevate their presence, refine their messaging, and build lasting relationships with listeners.🔑 Key TakeawaysIt's not about your content, it's about the context. People come for your six steps to success — they stay and come back for you.There's a difference between personal and private information. Share the story that shaped who you are; you don't have to hand over your whole life.You only need five or six core stories — not fifty — and it's totally fine to repeat them across different podcasts and stages. Different audience, different context, same story.If you're a podcast guest, don't just pitch your show or your book — get listeners onto your email list with a quick, specific lead magnet, or you'll never be able to reach them again."People don't trust perfection." When you try to be who you think you're supposed to be, people can feel it — and it costs you connection.We don't lack information, we lack implementation. Your story is what makes someone believe transformation is possible for them too.✔️ Connect With Erik K.

Are you accidentally pitch-slapping your LinkedIn connections? with Mary Wu
If you've ever sent a connection request and gotten silence back — or been on the receiving end of a sales pitch three seconds after someone accepted your invite — this episode is for you.Andrea sits down with LinkedIn speaker and strategy trainer Mary Wu to talk about what actually works on LinkedIn in 2026: how to DM without being icky, why getting personal on LinkedIn (yes, even about your wedding anniversary) can be your highest-performing content, and how to become the person everyone thinks of when they need an introduction.Mary also shares her rules for video on LinkedIn and why "giving away the farm" might be the smartest business move you make this year.About Mary WuMary Wu is a LinkedIn speaker and strategy trainer. She thinks in lyrics, curates connections, and plays with plushies.🔑 Key TakeawaysDon't "pitch slap" — never pitch someone in your first or second DM. Start by getting curious about them instead.LinkedIn rewards personal content in small doses — one well-placed post (like a wedding anniversary or a grandkid announcement) can outperform everything else you post all year, as long as it's not the only thing you talk about.The DMs are underused. When someone comments on your post, that's your invitation to take the conversation deeper.Before reaching out to someone, check their activity — if they haven't posted or commented in months, they're unlikely to respond.Post 3x a week, and don't skip weekends — informal, relaxed posts on Saturday/Sunday can outperform weekday content.Give more than you pitch (aim for roughly 80/20). The people who give the most tend to get the most back — referrals, credibility, and eventually, clients.✔️ Connect With Mary WuWebsite: www.marywuva.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/maryawuInstagram: instagram.com/mary_wu_mavenFree Monthly Workshops: marywuva.com/work-with-mary/workshops✔️ Connect With Host Andrea StenbergWebsite: thebabyboomerentrepreneur.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/andreastenbergInstagram: instagram.com/andreastenbergYouTube: youtube.com/andreastenbergFacebook: facebook.com/TheBabyBoomerEntrepreneurFree gift: Story Videos💖💖 Love the show?

Why Visibility Feels So Hard (And How to Stop Sabotaging Yourself)
In this episode of Courage to Be Visible, I'm joined by Giorgia G, a mindset coach and self-sabotage expert who helps high-achievers stop overworking, overthinking, and overpleasing their way out of the success they're capable of.We trace visibility struggles all the way back to childhood conditioning — the quiet messages so many of us absorbed about not standing out — and dig into the two self-sabotage patterns Giorgia sees most often in entrepreneurs: control and people-pleasing. We also talk about the difference between fear, worry, and misalignment, and why celebrating your wins might be the missing piece in finally feeling the progress you're actually making.If you've ever known exactly what to do but still found yourself freezing the moment the camera turns on, this conversation will help you understand why — and what to do about it.About Giorgia GGiorgia G is a mindset coach specialising in self-sabotage, a multi-passionate entrepreneur, and host of the Unleash Your Freedom podcast.

She now empowers high-achievers to get out of their own way, so they can stop overworking, overthinking, and overpleasing — and build success without sacrificing themselves or their relationships.🔑 Key TakeawaysVisibility struggles often trace back to childhood conditioning to fit in and not stand outSelf-sabotage shows up most often as control (doing it all yourself) or people-pleasingNot every block is fear — learning to tell fear, worry, and misalignment apart changes how you move through itYour brain won't register progress unless you stop to celebrate itYou don't have to build your business alone — community and mentorship speed everything up✔️ Connect With Giorgia GLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/giorgia-guazzarotti/Website: https://www.thetreasureswithin.netBook a free Strategy Call — identify your sabotaging pattern and create a plan to overcome it: https://tidycal.com/giorgia1/success-without-sabotage✔️ Connect With Host Andrea StenbergWebsite: https://www.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreastenberg/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreastenberg/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/andreastenberg?sub_confirmation=1Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheBabyBoomerEntrepreneurGrab a copy of Turn Your Everyday Stories Into Videos That Make People Say "That's Me": https://my.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/story-videos💖💖 Love the show?

She Reads, She Leads: How One Book a Month Can Transform Your Business, Confidence, and Financial Future with Jen Kornoely
What if the fastest way to grow your business wasn’t another course… but one powerful book and a room full of women willing to talk about it? In this episode, I sit down with Jennifer Kornoely, founder of She Reads, She Leads, to explore how one book a month is helping women build financial confidence, sharpen business skills, and create real momentum. We talk about money mindset, connection, implementation, and why reading alone isn’t enough. If you’ve ever thought, “I should know more about this by now,” this conversation might be exactly the nudge you need.About Jen KornoelyWhen Jen Kornoely left corporate and started her own business in 2015, she didn’t know what she didn’t know. She was a skilled photographer, but finances, marketing, confidence, and business growth? Not so much.After years of slowly building her business through personal development books and masterminds, Jen realized there had to be a faster and more accessible way to gain the skills and confidence women entrepreneurs need. She created She Reads, She Leads—a membership-based book club where women learn business and personal development skills together, implement what they learn, and build meaningful connections along the way.Key TakeawaysWhy reading alone only gets you 10–20% retention—and what dramatically increases implementationHow discussing a book helps you apply ideas instead of just highlighting themThe mindset shift women need when it comes to money and abundanceWhy one book a month is enough to create real, measurable changeHow community accelerates confidence, networking, and business growthThe surprising power of books you don’t likeHow connection and storytelling often lead to opportunity✔️Connect With Jen KornoelyWebsite https://www.shereadssheleads.com/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jenniferkornoely,LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifersharpkornoely/✔️Connect With Host Andrea StenbergWebsite: https://www.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreastenberg/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/andreastenberg/YouTube https://www.youtube.com/andreastenberg?sub_confirmation=1Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheBabyBoomerEntrepreneurGrab a copy of 7 Essential Videos for Explosive Growthhttps://my.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/7videosLove the show?

From “Too Much/Not Enough” to Fully Seen with Jen Vertanen
If you grew up hearing you’re “too much” or “not enough,” visibility can feel like standing under a spotlight with no script. In this energizing chat, transformation coach Jen Vertanen shares how she reverse-engineered her future 80-year-old, fully alive self; and used that vision to show up now.We talk death-by-a-thousand-paper-cuts conditioning, why authenticity beats polish, and tiny, doable actions that get you visible without being precious, perfect, or burnt out.What we coverWhy visibility is non-negotiable for coaches, healers, and heart-centered entrepreneurs (and why buyers are craving real over slick).“Too much / not enough” programming and how it quietly blocks your voice…and your marketing.The 80-year-old self exercise: reverse-engineering the qualities, values, and behaviors of your future self so you can embody them today (hello pink hair and fuchsia Docs).Authenticity > perfection: why stumbling, laughing, and being “charmingly awkward” creates trust and connection.Baby-step bravery: the small, safe actions (record to yourself, practice reps on mic/camera) that build confidence fast.The repel era: attracting right-fit clients by being unapologetically you—and letting the wrong ones self-select out.Mindset flip: from “look at me” to “let the right clients find me.” Your work matters more than a flawless delivery.Style as signal: color, clothing, and “you on a good day” visuals as authentic brand cues (not vanity).Quick takeawaysYou don’t need to be “ready”—you need to start (tiny, repeatable reps beat perfect plans).Being visibly imperfect makes you relatable, not risky.Define success from the inside out (identity → action → results).Boundaries are a visibility tool: magnetize your people, repel the rest—on purpose.Connect with JenWebsite: bedarecreate.com Facebook facebook.com/jennifervertanenInstagram instagram.com/jenvertanenLinkedIn linkedin.com/in/jenvertanenYouTube youtube.com/jenvertanenConnect With Andrea Stenbergwebsite: https://www.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreastenberg/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/andreastenberg/YouTube https://www.youtube.com/andreastenberg?sub_confirmation=1Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/TheBabyBoomerEntrepreneurLove the show?

In this episode I chat with Chris Dyer — a multi-dimensional heart-to-soul health coach helping busy business owners reclaim their health and well-being.What we get intoWhy visibility is more than “showing your face”—and how written and in-person touchpoints count.The confidence muscle: why consistency (not perfection) builds credibility and sales.Mindset + marketing: marrying left-brain strategy with right-brain self-trust.How to stop “convincing” and start serving—so your best-fit clients self-select.Practical ways to practice visibility safely (even if you’re new and nervous).Why it can take 12–20 touchpoints (or ~3 hours of your content) before a buyer is ready—and what to do about it.Highlights“If you don’t have an audience, you don’t have a business—visibility is a necessary skill.”“Every time you speak, you’re selling an idea—even if no money changes hands.”“No today doesn’t mean no six months from now. Stay present, stay consistent.”“The sweet spot is the middle: heart-centered transformation and solid transaction systems.”Connect with ChrisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chris.dyer.creates/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisdyerheart2soul/Website: https://www.ConnectwithChrisDyer.com Connect with AndreaWebsite: https://www.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreastenberg/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/andreastenberg/ YouTube https://www.youtube.com/andreastenberg?sub_confirmation=1 Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/TheBabyBoomerEntrepreneur If you’re ready to show up online, grab a copy of Andrea’s 7 Essential Videos for Explosive Growth https://my.thebabyboomerentrepreneur.com/7videos If this helped:Share the episode with a friend, follow the show, and leave a quick rating/review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify—it really helps more good humans find us.

We collect evidence to support our fears - with Yvonne McCoy
Episode summary: When the world flipped in 2020, Yvonne realized her business had become a “cluttered junk drawer” of programs with no clear focus. That wake-up call led her to design the Client’s Trust Journey—a simple path that helps prospects find you, trust you, and hire you. In this conversation, Yvonne shares why perfection kills relevance, how authenticity outperforms “broadcast voice,” and why you don’t need to be fixed—you need to be found.You’ll learn:Relevance beats perfection: if you polish forever, the problem you’re solving changes—and you’re no longer useful.Be you, on purpose: how sounding “too professional” can erase your real voice (and repel perfect-fit clients).Visibility ≠ only video: ways to be found through 1:1 connections, networking, and channels that light you up.Own your odd: your “odd duck” strengths are often the magnet your clients are seeking.Evidence audit: stop collecting proof it’s unsafe to be seen; start sharing the stories that serve.From junk drawer to journey: align brand, offers, and systems so every touchpoint builds trust.Try this today: Pick one channel (video, networking, or 1:1 outreach) and share one relevant story in your true voice—no over-polishing. Ask for a next step: “Want the checklist? DM me ‘TRUST’.”About Yvonne:Yvonne helps entrepreneurs struggling with sporadic sales attract and convert the right clients by transforming interactions into lasting relationships.
