Welcome to the Pregnancy and Postnatal Entrepreneurs Collective Podcast, hosted by Niamh Cassidy. In this episode, we dive into one of the most transformative lessons from The NEST Programme: Mastering Your Mindset.

What We Cover in This Episode:

• Why mindset matters: Tackling mindset blocks is the foundation for business growth. Without this work, strategies like pricing or marketing often hit a wall.
• Temporary Thought Patterns (TTPs): Learn how to identify and challenge fleeting, negative thoughts that can derail your confidence, such as imposter syndrome and self-doubt.
• Real-life breakthroughs: Hear inspiring stories from NEST participants who overcame mindset blocks related to pricing, self-worth, and transitioning from volunteer to professional roles.
• Practical mindset exercises: Join Niamh in uncovering your core positive beliefs and challenging limiting beliefs that might be holding you back.

Key Takeaways:

1. Mindset work starts here: Identifying and addressing temporary thought patterns is essential to building sustainable, thriving businesses.
2. Positive reframing: Learn how to reframe limiting beliefs like "I can't charge for this" or "I don't have time" into empowering statements that support growth.
3. The power of visualisation: Niamh guides listeners through a short, impactful visualisation to imagine their future success and reflect on what steps they need to take.
