Boost Your Creativity, Productivity, and Satisfaction 134
Welcome to our Podcast episode dedicated to exploring the fascinating concept of 'flow' - a state of deep contentment and absorption in activities that stimulates your creativity and fuels productivity. Your host, Elizabeth Johnston, a seasoned creativity and story coach, as well as a certified autobiography guide, will guide you on a transformative journey as she discusses her personal experiences and shares insights from the work of acclaimed psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. Discover the extraordinary correlation between wealth, happiness, and this elusive state of 'flow', and learn the profound impact it has on your personal and business life. Understand how incorporating story into your business can serve as an appealing draw for the right clients. This podcast promises an enlightening conversation, which will encourage you to reassess conventional business models and reevaluate the role of happiness and 'flow' in realizing your goals. With her profound insights, bolstered with real-life anecdotes, inspiring research and intriguing activities, our host offers a compelling route to enhanced clarity, vision, and a deeper understanding of your life and business narrative. This is about unlocking your own path to elevated productivity, creativity, and overall satisfaction in your life and business journey. Finding Happiness in Work: Utilising 'Flow' for Increased Productivity and Satisfaction Dive into the unique methodology of tracking everyday activities and gauging the joy or dissatisfaction derived from each, a worthwhile tool for time management and augmenting daily contentment. You will discover the need to delegate tasks that hold you back and obstruct your ability to experience pleasure and achieve the flow state. The episode also provides valuable insights into societal structures that often result in unforeseen stress due to uneven task distribution, particularly within families and relationships. Understand the importance of reevaluating roles in order to attain happiness and abolish actions that foster contempt. Get acquainted with the role of social approval, and how doing things out of obligation rather than choice, primarily to appease others or save face, can lead to loss of personal satisfaction and 'flow'. The episode culminates with an invitation to the free Story Circle writing workshop, where participants can explore the power of writing about their lives and discovering personal narratives. The ultimate goal is to learn to consciously organize your life around activities and tasks that bring joy and keep you in the flow state. Don’t let your days be overthrown by activities that dampen your spirit. Choose to live in a state of constant flow and make the most of each day.

Boosting Business Potential through the Power of Storytelling 132
In this episode, your dependable story and creativity coach, Elizabeth Johnston, discusses the crucial role that storytelling plays in boosting your business. She pays particular attention to demonstrating that storytelling doesn’t just enhance our personal and social lives but also has a profound effect on the perceived value of products and services, potentially increasing it by an astounding 2,706%, and in some cases, more. Elizabeth stresses the importance of authenticity and truth when using personal stories in your business. According to research that she cites, a hormonal change occurs when we listen to a story. This enhances our sense of connection, increases affinity towards a product or service, and ultimately influences how much we're willing to pay for it. To further underline the power of storytelling in business, Elizabeth introduces the upcoming Storytelling Superpowers MicroSummit that she is hosting. This five-day event involves various speakers and covers numerous compelling topics, including how to heal your writer's block and harness the power of storytelling in email marketing. While some parts of the summit will be pre-recorded, there will also be live sessions, and all parts will be recorded for future reference. Apart from providing you with valuable insights and knowledge, the summit also includes contests with attractive prizes, VIP access, and bonus features. Whether you're just starting out or trying to upscale your enterprise, this episode is a must-listen for business-savvy individuals interested in exploiting storytelling's massive potential to boost their business' perceived value.

Outsourcing your creativity 110
As a writer and professor, I’ve struggled with the concept of AI. I know it’s the new wave of the future and there is little to stop it. But as other people’s agendas make the adoption of AI pretty much inevitable, we can still be conscious and aware of its effect and limitations. In this episode, I talk about Nick Cave, the artistic process, and why online entrepreneurs need to own, honour, and cultivate their creativity -- if they are going to create a business that is in alignment with their vision and authentically create their Know, Like & Trust factor. If you want help in unearthing your personal stories to use in your business, join us for my one-day virtual retreat, Tell Your Stories, for visionary entrepreneurs. Find out more by clicking here.
