This week we are trying a Sunday morning podcast, no wine, just hot caffeinated drinks to keep us going! Helen introduces the podcast and what its all about in the most long winded way possible but its ok because girls are the best and girls rule! We may have bickered before going live, but will we carry it on with the cameras rolling!? Will we need a divorce lawyer?! They say you spend the most amount of time with people at work and we find that makes it easier to appreciate each others day and feelings towards whats happened. Whilst we are very different in many different ways personally and professionally this does allow us to see things in work and our personal lives differently. We’ve changed up the mics this week but Helen doesn’t like them, do they sound better to you with the covers on? So its been another crazy week in the Butler house hold but we are still going. We’ve had some epiphanies during our roller coaster ride as we’ve been busy planning the future of our businesses with a very well respected business coach. We discus how we find it best to plan for day to day life and business. It is through making lists? For our business planning for the future we discuss how we’ve made Flight paths as this is something we haven't done for a couple of years and we are back on it. With the thanks to Mike Allen. Chris may have kissed some frogs and toads but now he’s ready for his princess!!! It's a hard job finding a good match not only for a wife or husband but also a business coach. You have to trust, respect and admire them, same but different! Having someone to hold you accountable is what we feel we both need more, we know how to sweet talk each other out of certain deadlines and it needs to stop! We’ve gone back to basics to re focus on our marketing plan and our ideal customers and where we want to be in the future. Helen shares how she got emotional when meeting with Mike about the businesses future, and is passionate about people expressing emotions as this is something that hasn’t been taken on board in some of her previous roles. To get our flight path and future goals listed out we actually took a day off away from work to work on the future of our businesses and personal life goals with thanks to our great team allowing us to as they ran the production for us. Is vigour a word for excited? Chris uses it anyway as he’s reducing his swearing! Talking of words, our son a few years ago when he was about 5 was upset after someone at school called him a swear word, “The S word….. “Stupid!" In our flight plan we looked at what we want for retirement and how to get there. We reflected how we feel old at work when some of the team are nearly half our age. Why does everyone younger than yourself on TV look 12, not 25, or 18….12!? Is it too early for us to both make any sense!? We start to sing so maybe! Helen has another brain fart as its too early to talk business and make sense clearly. Will her singing guide us through her answers sounding more professional saying noooo nooo and yeahhhh yeahhh every time!? Will they loose the plot and stop getting the giggles!? Getting back to business, we discuss how time blocking is great and works really well for Helen on paper, but did she us it? 4th time lucky will Helen answer?! Chris keeps life simple making lists in priority order each day. Our shout out this week isn’t only to Mike Allen from Business Doctors as he’s been heavily involved in our week but also for a footwear company Chris used for the first time randomly online who have 3 stores called Elevate Your Sole. And what a great reason for Helen to buy some new shoes too! We hope our giggles along this weeks podcast haven't stopped you from taking something useful from todays listen!
