In this episode I am wondering out loud what advances in technology might mean for us - for the way we share and create and for the way we work and collaborate with each other. I know there is a lot of anxiety and uncertainty in the air around how AI might impact creatives, so if you want to make some space to explore your own thoughts I really hope this episode will offer you some space to do just that.  I don't think it's all doom &amp; gloom at all, but I think it's important that we are active agents who shape tech culture rather than passive consumers who just hand over all their data to big tech.  As always, thank you for listening!

#99 Five steps to creating a beautiful brand for your business

We're nearing a hundred episodes! In this one I am sharing why I think it's so important to intentionally look for evidence of your resilience, creativity and success. In a world that is endlessly distracting and competitive it can be way to easy to feel too slow or not good enough, but when we shift our attention we can also shift that feeling of always being behind.  I hope listening will make you feel warm, fuzzy and good about yourself.  Here is the Create &amp; Launch program I mentioned: https://pinkwellstudio.com/create-launch/ Love, Yarrow

This episode was an absolute joy to record - I spoke to the wonderful Anna of Studio Gently, who recently took my picture. Having this conversation and working with Anna as a brand photographer has really changed the way I feel about being seen and telling stories with my work. I feel more proud and excited about what I do and I am so grateful for Anna's incredibly ability to make people comfortable. Here is some of what we talked about:  Getting comfortable with being seen Building a business that supports your mental health Navigating times of stress while gently staying in touch with our creativity Preparing for a photoshoot  Anna is an Edinburgh-based brand photographer working with creative kin across the UK. She loves helping even the shyest clients feel comfortable on camera, and when she's not shooting, you'll probably find her cosied up under a blanket with a fave magazine. https://studiogently.com/ The Create &amp; Launch program I mentioned: https://pinkwellstudio.com/create-launch/ Thank you for listening!

#29 Eight tips for working through imposter syndrome

Caroline Wood

Hey everyone,thank you so much for joining me for another episode - this time I spoke to Caroline Wood about what it's like to build a business as an introvert. I think there can be a lot of pressure to do things a certain way and it's easy to feel pressured into sharing beyond what we're comfortable with. I always love talking to other small business owners who do things differently, so I hope you find this conversation interesting too. Here is what we talked about:- Managing our introvert energy to build our businesses- Create marketing plans that don't require us to be "out there" all the time- Coming to a sustainable pricing model - Overcoming self-doubt in our businesses- Knowing our needs and having good boundariesCaroline Wood is an introvert who supports other introverts to build successful businesses that honour their introversion. She does this through helping them put in place great systems and set prices to thrive. Caroline is a corporate escapee having spent 20 years working as a chartered accountant working for large businesses and not for profits. She has wound her way around world working in Australia (her home country), the UK, Namibia and Laos.Website: carolinemwood.com/Instagram: www.instagram.com/quietlycaroline/Facebook: www.facebook.com/QuietlyCaroline/:: About me and the DIY Small Business podcast ::I am a web designer, small business mentor and tech fairy who helps people start and run small businesses that are fun to work in and make enough money for things that matter.The DIY Business Podcast is supporting people in creating honest, more sustainable and feminist businesses that redefine success and center community through interviews with like minded folk, how to guides and exploratory shares.If you’d to stay in touch you can sign up for my newsletter over here: yarrowdigital.com/sign-up-for-my-newsletter/ – I am usually sending them once or twice a month when I have new episodes, resources or interesting stories to share.If you like the show you might also love the DIY Business Collective, a low cost program that includes a ten module online course, monthly group coaching, weekly journaling prompts, monthly themed workshops and quarterly business planning workshops for $22/month.

#14 Working With Mistakes And Contractions In Business

Eli Trier

Hey appreciated listeners,l am sorry it's been a little while since you received the last episode. I moved houses and countries, left social media, wrote a zine and enjoyed summer. Thanks for your patience!Now that I am all set and unpacked I am really excited to started sharing more episodes since one of my main aims with leaving social media was to be able to create more long form media and have more in-depth conversations.This one with Eli Trier stayed with me for a long time and gave me a whole bunch of ideas that I have already implemented. I am honestly so grateful I met Eli and got this little glimpse behind the scenes of how she does things. It's magic! Here is what we talked about:- How to reach out to others as an introvert- Overcoming social anxiety and creating working conditions that truly work for us in a sustainable, regenerative way- The magic of creating community projects that go much deeper than your average telesummit or weekend gathering- Why bringing people together around a shared passion is so much more powerful than shouting random stuff from the rooftops- Redefining our ideas of success and "adulthood" - Rehumanising business relationships and investing in transparency, kindness and connectionEli Trier lives in the wonderful city of Copenhagen, Denmark and is a community builder for Quiet Revolutionaries. She helps introverts with big dreams to get connected and build thriving, engaged communities around their businesses, so that they can make a massive impact, find their dream clients, and make their corner of the world a better place. A long-time business owner, Eli knows first-hand the power of human connection to build a business, and her unique approach got her featured in The FT Guide to Business Networking. She specialises in creating powerful, strategic online community projects and loves every minute of her work (even the boring bits). When she's not working you can find her curled up with a book, painting, or hanging out with her fiance Lars.The video message service Eli mentioned is called Bonjoro - www.bonjoro.com/And her love&gt;numbers group programme can be found here - elitriercommunities.com/lovenumbersEmail: eli@elitrier.comWebsite:elitriercommunities.comInstagram: @elitriercommunities:: About me and the DIY Small Business podcast ::I am a web designer, small business mentor and tech fairy who helps people start and run small businesses that are fun to work in and make enough money for things that matter.The DIY Business Podcast is supporting people in creating regenerative, sustainable and feminist businesses that redefine success and center community through interviews with like minded folk, how to guides and exploratory shares.I am not on social media anymore because I want to focus on creating indy media like my podcasts, compare myself less and spent little time on my phone.

I want to say that this is definitely not the only way to do things and also that I hope you don't feel any pressure to make free stuff available too. We're all in different spaces and my intention is just to share what works for me. Here is the sign up for the Business Planning for 2019 workshop I mentioned: <a href="http://yarrowdigital.com/free-webinars/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">yarrowdigital.com/free-webinars/</a> :: About me and the DIY Small Business podcast :: I am a web designer, small business mentor and tech fairy who helps people start and run small businesses that are fun to work in and make enough money for things that matter. The DIY Business Podcast is supporting people in creating regenerative, sustainable and feminist businesses that redefine success and center community through interviews with like minded folk, how to guides and exploratory shares. I am not on social media anymore because I want to focus on creating indy media like my podcasts, compare myself less and spent little time on my phone. This means I have more energy to nurture my communities and make cool things for you!

#5 Generosity and Boundaries in Business

As you might have seen/heard I left social media, which is kind of a wild decision for a small business owner to make. The pressure to put shiny, bite sized content out there regularly to beat the algorithm is huge, but I am ready to see what else is out there!In this solo episode I am sharing the reasons for my decision, what I have observed over the years, what I am planning to grow my business instead of being on social media and what it all feels like.I would love to hear what you think - are you enjoying your social media life? How much time are you spending on your phone? What would you miss if you left?Let me know in the comments over at YarrowDigital.com:: About me and the DIY Small Business podcast ::I am a web designer, small business mentor and tech fairy who helps people start and run small businesses that are fun to work in and make enough money for things that matter.The DIY Business Podcast is supporting people in creating regenerative, sustainable and feminist businesses that redefine success and center community through interviews with like minded folk, how to guides and exploratory shares.I am not on social media anymore because I want to focus on creating indy media like my podcasts, compare myself less and spent little time on my phone.
