About Laterpreneur: Being you first, before business
Are you in the middle of a later-in-life pivot and you have wondered if it's time to do an online business? Is your mind overwhelmed with trying to clarify your niche, your avatar, let alone all the techy stuff? And are you asking yourself – “Do I really have to market on social media and have a lead magnet? What if I'm not an expert on anything? And how can I just be myself?" These are just some of the questions that Christine Blain gets curious about in her experiment of crafting a calm, intentional, authentic business that is based on you being you FIRST, before business. Let's go! ✨
Modern technology encourages us to do rather than to be. Even when queuing up at the supermarket, we answer emails. And while waiting for a taxi, we check the news or mindlessly scroll through Instagram. When was the last time you paused in the midst of doing something important? And what did you notice when you paused? Did you feel relief and peaceful? Or, was it the uncomfortable feeling of being alone, cast adrift with nothing to do?
In Today’s Episode we’ll explore the difference between BEING and DOING and how that impacts us as humans and especially as Laterpreneurs.
What You’ll Learn:
the key differences between Doing and Being
how to focus on Being while Doing
a simple visualisation exercise to help you get in touch with your own “doing” mode and “being“ mode

Why Words Matter
It’s a New Year and with that often comes a frenzy of crafting a process to figure out your “Word for the Year”. Maybe you have yours all figured out by now and are off and running into all your carefully-laid goals and plans for the year. Well, I’m not there yet! And I’ve decided that is OK too.
In light of this annual focus on words, I thought I’d share my thoughts on why words can be so powerful in crafting a life you want.
In Today’s Episode we’ll look at why words matter and what they can evoke in a person emotionally.
What you’ll learn:
how a university has created an annual list of Banished Words
the top 10 words to avoid in 2023
other words of note that have been chronically overused in recent years
