Dealing with Change: How to Move Forward in Life and Business Change is inevitable. Your response changes everything.

<p>Paul kicks things off by exploring the different types of change we experience—both the changes we choose and those forced upon us. </p><p><br></p><p>Together, he and Lindsey discuss why dealing with change isn&#39;t always easy, how fear influences our decisions, and what we can do to move forward with greater confidence in both life and business.</p><p>Paul uses AI for its perspective on change, adding another interesting dimension to the conversation. And Lindsey shares a brilliant example of a client embracing AI.</p><p>Together, Lindsey and Paul explore the emotions that accompany uncertainty and the fear change can create, a topic inspired by Lindsey, who is navigating significant change at home.  </p><p><strong>Together, they discuss:</strong></p><p>➡️ Why we get to choose how we respond to change and what that looks like for us.<br>➡️ Why fear of change is normal and how our brains are wired to protect us.<br>➡️ How understanding the mind can help us make better decisions.<br>➡️ Why a simple SWOT analysis is still one of the most effective business tools.<br>➡️ How we can work incredibly hard to stand still, using energy that could fuel growth.<br>➡️ Why changes like Making Tax Digital aren&#39;t just another challenge: they&#39;re an opportunity to improve and adapt.</p><p>Having experienced plenty of change over the years, Lindsey and Paul recognise it has become easier to embrace. At the same time, they openly admit that being on the other side of 50 can sometimes make change feel daunting.</p><p>Change will happen whether we like it or not. The real question is whether we&#39;ll let it happen to us or choose to make it work for us.</p><p>This episode will help you see change not as something to fear, but as an opportunity to grow—both personally and professionally. And remember, you don&#39;t have to navigate change alone.

Who has control over your business? Because when the world gets wobbly, the answer matters more than ever

<p>After a short break, Lindsey and Paul are back and ready to go for another season — having used the time to reset and catch their breath.</p><p>To kick things off, Lindsey had thought this episode should revisit what success looks like. But Paul had other ideas, bringing the question: </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Who has control over your business?</strong></p><p><br></p><p>It&#39;s an important one — especially with the world feeling a little wobbly again.</p><p>Because so often, sometimes without even realising it, we abdicate responsibility, blaming everything and everyone for what isn&#39;t happening in our businesses.</p><p><strong>Together, Lindsey and Paul explore:</strong></p><p>➡️ The influence news has over us — if we allow it to.<br>➡️ Stimulus and response — deciding how you feel.<br>➡️ Self-fulfilling prophecy — proving the thought you already had.<br>➡️ It&#39;s not easy, but it&#39;s not complicated — so why do we make it so?<br>➡️ Falling back into old habits and the opportunity to strengthen the mindset muscle.<br>➡️ What to do when you&#39;restuck in the &#39;what else do I need to fix?&#39; loop.</p><p>Bad news doesn&#39;t mean bad business. Lindsey and Paul have been here before and know they&#39;ll be here again — and because they&#39;ve been around the block a few times,they find the present wobble a little easier to navigate. The good news? So can you. </p><p>Give it a listen!</p><p>As they bring the episode to a close, they remind you of the importance of your community, your network, and who you choose to listen to.</p><p>➡️ Enjoyed this episode?</p><p>Subscribe, leave a review, or drop us a message — we&#39;d love to hear what resonated with you.</p><p><strong>Want to connect with us?</strong></p><p><strong>Paul Snell </strong>uses neuroscience to help business leaders unlock success through apeople-first lens.<br>🌐 <a href="https://www.dnaneuroanalytics.com/" target="_new">https://www.dnaneuroanalytics.com/</a><br>🔗 <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulksnell/" target="_new">https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulksnell/</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Lindsey Burden </strong>empowers business owners to shape a business that works for them — sustainably,confidently, and on their terms.<br>🌐 <a href="https://lindseyburden.com/" target="_new">https://lindseyburden.com/</a><br>🔗 <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/lindsey-burden/" target="_new">https://www.linkedin.com/in/lindsey-burden/</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>ABOUT THEPODCAST</strong></p><p><strong>C</strong><strong>hallenging the Norm: His and Hers Look at Life and Business</strong> is for solopreneurs, entrepreneurs, andbusiness owners who want to grow a successful business without burnout or blindly following the latest trend.</p><p>If you’re overwhelmed by information overload, losing sight of your priorities, or stuck on the hamster wheel of “do more,” this show is for you.</p><p>With 50+ years of combined experience, <strong>Lindsey Burden</strong> and <strong>PaulSnell </strong>bring real talk, practical insight, and thoughtful challenge — helping you cut through the noise and build a business that truly works for you.</p><p><strong>Business doesn’t have to be louder, faster, or harder to be successful.</strong></p><p>______________________________</p><p> </p><p>#ChallengingTheNorm #SuccessOnYourTerms#RealBusinessTalk #SustainableSuccess #BusinessMindset #SolopreneurLife#BusinessWithoutBurnout #SmallBusinessOwner</p><p>#BusinessResilience #MindsetMatters #TakeControl #Accountability</p><p></p>

Stop Trying to Fit In—Start Paying Attention

<p>From identity to boundaries… and everything in between.</p><p>In this episode of Challenging the Norm, Lindsey shares an honest rant about not quite fitting right now. Whether it’s age, energy, running a business that doesn’t fit the “lifestyle” mould, or being the main earner, she’s asking the question many avoid:</p><p>Where do you fit… and do you even need to?</p><p>Paul relates, reflecting on a time when not smoking meant missing out on conversations, decisions, and opportunities—because the real networking happened in the smoking area. He also admits he doesn’t like golf… and would appreciate you keeping that quiet.</p><p><br /></p><p>Together, Lindsey and Paul explore:</p><p>➡️ What identity really means in business—and how social media shapes it</p><p>➡️ Comfort zones, and why growth often sits just beyond them</p><p>➡️ The warning signs that show up when you’ve crossed your own boundaries</p><p>➡️ Why trying harder to “fit in” usually pulls you further away from yourself</p><p>➡️ Grounding yourself when things feel uncertain and learning to trust your body’s signals</p><p>➡️ The power of connection and finding the right rooms, not just more rooms</p><p>As they hit episode 60, they also reflect on breaking podcast “rules” and expectations, proving that consistency, honesty, and showing up as you are count for far more than stats.</p><p>Because sometimes, the moment you stop trying to fit in… is the moment things start to click.</p><p>➡️ Enjoyed this episode?
