• One thing you need to prioritize in your business for your mental health
    2025/02/07
    Building Community Resilience

    Caring for our mental health is not a solo game; it’s actually a team sport!

    In this episode of The Weeniecast, we’re exploring the importance of seeking joy and engaging in group activities to boost our mental well-being.

    Hi, I'm Katie McManus, and I'm here to talk about how we’ve been sold this idea that self-care is all about meditating alone or having a quiet cup of herbal tea, but let’s be real about this - while those things are very nice, they’re not the whole picture.

    We need to soak up joy with others, whether it’s through a fun book club, artsy get-togethers, or even just sharing a laugh over a ridiculously complicated puzzle.

    So let’s chat about how we can sprinkle a little more fun into our lives for the sake of our mental health!

  • Here's Why You Don’t Need a Partner to Start Your Business
    2025/01/24
    Going Solo: Strategies for Independent Business Owners

    There’s something absolutely terrifying about trying to start a business on your own.

    The loneliness creeps in, and the self-doubt roars like a hungry lion.

    You might even think, "Do I need a business partner to be taken seriously?"

    Trust me, I’ve been there.

    In fact, I tried working with multiple business partners when I started.

    I thought I needed someone to boost my credibility and shield me from rejection.

    But then, something unexpected happened. I discovered a few key things that completely shifted my perspective on going solo in business. And, let me tell you, it freed me up to soar beyond my wildest dreams.

    In this episode, I share why you don’t actually need a business partner to succeed.

  • 2025 - The 12 Week Year
    2025/01/17
    Master Your Goals in 2025: The Power of the 12 Week Year

    There’s nothing like the satisfaction of completing a challenging sprint and crossing that finish line with a sense of accomplishment...

    You feel that rush of adrenaline, the pride of having met your goal in a short, intense burst of effort. That feeling is the motivation behind the approach I'm diving into today.

    Imagine transforming your entire year into a series of these successful sprints, focusing intensely on just a few key goals at a time.

    You might be someone who, like me, has a small addiction to buying planners, crafting elaborate year-long plans, only to have them fall by the wayside by February.

    I've been there, stuck in a cycle of setting big goals and not reaching them because life happens.

    If you're tired of feeling overwhelmed by your to-do list and frustrated by unmet goals, then it's time to change the game.

    In this episode, I share a revolutionary strategy designed for people who thrive on short bursts of focus and energy - perfect for those of us with ADHD or anyone who's struggled with traditional planning methods.

    By listening to this episode, you’ll discover how to set realistic, impactful goals that you can achieve within 12 weeks - a method that's already changing my life and could change yours too.

  • Privilege Pitfalls: Tim Ferriss & Steven Bartlett's Advice Won't Help Your Business
    2025/01/10

    Imagine this: you're scrolling through the latest business advice from the top names in the industry, Tim Ferriss and Steven Bartlett, and feeling an overwhelming sense of inadequacy.

    You think, "If Tim could do it with four hours a week and Steven could do it living in a crowded New York apartment, why can't I?"

    But here's the thing - what you're not seeing is the privilege laid out beneath their stories.

    In this episode of The Weeniecast, I'm explaining why following the advice of privileged figures won't necessarily help you build your business.

    I'll reveal the hidden layers of privilege these stories don't discuss, and how you might be setting yourself up for failure by trying to mimic their journeys.

    Listen in to discover how acknowledging your unique circumstances and challenges can be a game-changer in developing a business strategy that works for you.

    Once you understand that you don't need to fit into someone else's mold, you'll unlock the freedom to craft your own authentic path to success.

    And that is a feeling worth chasing.

  • Successful 2025? Here's the approach you'll need to change!
    2025/01/03

    There’s nothing quite like the moment you realize your business is thriving, even exceeding your wildest expectations.

    You’re reflecting on your journey, on those initial nerve-wracking days of stepping into the unknown, and you can’t help but smile.

    But here's the thing - it's not all rainbows and butterflies.

    Far from it.

    There have been more failures, more ‘wrong turns,’ and more doubts than you could ever count.

    That’s the reality that many business owners, especially those with ADHD, face every single day. The drive, the passion, the creative energy - all get stifled by the crippling fear of failure.

    That’s why I’m here to tell you about a fundamental shift you need to make right now to ensure that 2025 isn't just another year of missed goals and abandoned projects.

    If you’re tired of setting ambitious plans only to walk away when things don’t go perfectly, or if you find yourself avoiding the next big step out of fear of failing, then you can’t afford to miss this.

    This episode will arm you with the mindset changes necessary to have a massively improved year in business in 2025.

    Imagine waking up every day with confidence and enthusiasm, knowing that even your worst days are stepping stones to something greater.

    Imagine the freedom in letting go of that paralyzing perfectionism and embracing a healthier, more resilient approach to your entrepreneurial journey.

    Start living that reality. It’s possible, and it starts here, with this episode.

    [Listen in at 00:06:52 to get straight to the heart of the episode - the point where we dive into real-life examples and actionable insights that could change your entire approach to business.]

  • Mastering Your Sales Conversations The IKEA Way - (ADKOFL)
    2024/12/20
    Tackle Sales Like an IKEA Pro: The Essential ADKOFL Method

    There’s nothing like that feeling when you get off a sales call knowing you've nailed it.

    Imagine, you’re buzzing from the conversation, feeling confident that you've expressed your expertise just right. You send the follow-up email, and the reply you get is enthusiastic and positive.

    Deep down, this is why you started your business.

    So you could connect deeply with clients who truly understand and value what you offer.

    But let's face it, every sale isn't like this.

    Sometimes, no matter how skilled you are, landing the client feels like climbing a mountain - and it’s not just any mountain, it’s Everest.

    Trust me, you're not alone.

    Every day I encounter clients who, despite having a solid sales background, find it challenging to sell their own services.

    Why?

    Because selling an object and selling your own expertise are worlds apart.

    If you've been feeling this disconnect in your sales process, it's time for a change.

    You shouldn't feel like you're pitching your soul every time you interact with a potential client.

    In this episode, I’m going to reveal one framework that can transform your sales conversations - making them smoother and more effective.

    Imagine if you could handle sales without the heavy emotional toll.

    Imagine if you had a structured yet flexible approach to follow that brings clarity and ease.

    This is what my IKEA "ADKOFL" framework is all about.

    By the end of this episode, you’ll feel more in control of your sales interactions and see an increase in your client conversions.

    Short on time? To discover the five most crucial shifts you need to adopt right away, fast forward to 00:02:33.

    This could be the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for.

    Listen in and let’s make your sales process as streamlined and satisfying as putting together a perfect piece of IKEA furniture.
