Every now and again on the podcast, Naomi Nic and Mandy feature one of the members from the Gentle Business Mastermind. They have so much wisdom to share themselves so we didn’t want to hide them from you.
In this episode, we’re excited to introduce you to Terri Connellan from quietwriting.com Terri is a writer and life coach living in Sydney, Australia. Her business Quiet Writing is all about journeying deep into wholehearted stories, working through self and leadership strategies such as writing, personality type, Tarot and reading as a creative influence.
We had a great time chatting with Terri about how knowing your personality type can assist you in growing your business gently, in moving gently through transition periods and having fun on social media, on self leadership tips and so much more as well.
WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE:
- Transitioning from a leadership role in a corporate/education space to working for self
- Managing chronic uncertainty
- Finding ways to work for self
- The tools and frameworks Terri loves to use to understand more about herself
- How she’s found ways to work gently as someone who’s very driven
- How understanding more about self and your personality type can support you to embrace your strengths and expand into some of the traits that don’t come naturally to you.
- Getting out in nature and moving the body and how to build these practices into your life when you LOVE your work
- Her self-leadership practices such as morning pages, being cognisant of the seasons in her business and life, working with cycles and rhythms on a daily basis, block scheduling time (time for admin, time for focussed work, etc)

- How your personality type can be a powerful tool for transition
