The Jasmine Star Show

If you followed along with our Crypto Curious series in February and March 2022, you know that me and my favorite crypto-savvy co host Daniel Di Venere *love* nerding out about NFTs. And since we closed out the series just a few weeks ago, there are plenty of things we’d like to update you on… which is why Daniel and I decided to break out our podcasting mics for this off-the-cuff bonus episode! T...

I’m just going to say it: I believe that self awareness is the fuel your business needs to be successful. Without self awareness, you won’t be able to reach the goals you’ve set, impact the amount of lives you want to, or make the amount of money you want to. That’s why I’m excited to share with you a conversation I had on the Callie Ammons Show about this topic, because I truly believe it’s impor...

Have you ever worried about staying relevant in your industry? I’ve been there. Sometimes as business owners, we get into routines in our content creation and our marketing. It’s “just the way we do it,” and we don’t consider changing… but friend, that is DETRIMENTAL to our business, even if it feels safe. In order to stay relevant and continue making the max amount of sales for your business, you...

Every life-changing adventure, decision, or opportunity I’ve had started off with a side hustle. In case you’re unfamiliar with that term, a side hustle is a small business that is *usually* not your main source of income while you get it off the ground. Side hustles are not guaranteed to be a full-time career, but you’ll be lucky if it becomes one. It could take 2 months, 2 years, or 20 years…but...

Does Instagram REALLY matter? I was thinking about this topic the other day because let me deal it to you straight: many business owners have personal opinions around specific platforms and it’s affecting their decision-making when it comes to using social media for their business. Our objective as business owners is to make decisions that benefit our business… personal feelings aside. We have to...

What most people don’t know is that when you start a business, you have to make the conscious decision to become a marketer. Because as much as you love what you do (whether it be painting, copywriting, cooking, photography, business coaching or anything else), the reality is that without marketing, you won’t ever get to do it! Not as a business, anyway. That’s why you have to make the conscious d...

Oftentimes as business owners, we’re afraid to try something new. But isn’t that what entrepreneurship is all about? Trying new things, making mistakes, learning from them, then trying again? I’d argue it is. >>I truly believe that you need to try something new in order to determine what’s right for your business.<< That being said, I know it can be difficult to determine exactly what...

One of my favorite parts of hosting the Jasmine Star Show is that I get to speak to some of the most inspiring, brilliant entrepreneurs in all different industries all over the world. Today, you’re about to hear from one of those entrepreneurs: CEO of Bomba Curls , Lulu Cordero, who recently became the first EVER female owned Afro-Dominican hair care brand to be sold at Target! In this conversatio...

Pat Flynn (Founder of SmartPassiveIncome & SwitchPod) once told me, “Riches are in niches,” and he couldn’t be more right. Let’s dig a little deeper into what this means for you…  >>If you speak to everyone, you’re actually speaking to no one.<<  That’s why I tell every business owner (yes, you too!) to identify their Ideal Client , and speak specifically to them… and that might ev...

“What should I do if the biggest person who critiques my work is my spouse?” “How do I respond when my mom challenges my goals?” “What should I say when my loved ones don’t support my dreams?” Ouch. These questions may sting to read, and they’re sadly very common for many business owners to ask themselves. What SHOULD you do when your loved ones don’t support your dreams? I have a lot of opinions...

I feel so passionate about healing yourself from the inside out in order to transform your business that I’m being extra vulnerable today… because my guest is my former therapist! >>Mark Howerton has over fifteen years of experience working in the field of counseling.<< In his own life, a life-threatening car accident gave Mark first-hand experience in overcoming trauma, and motivated...

Do you have someone in your life who, whenever you see them, spend time with them, and speak with them, you feel completely fulfilled and happy they’re in your life? For me, that person is James Wedmore. I’ve spoken about him on the podcast plenty of times, so I won’t bore you with the details of how we met in his mastermind, and how he has become an incredible mentor and friend to me over the yea...

I can almost guarantee that every new business owner asked the question, “Where do I even START?” at the beginning of their journey and wished they had a roadmap to follow. I know I did when I first started my photography business 15 years ago! >>With a decade of entrepreneurial experience under my belt and having made plenty of mistakes along the way, I feel confident in saying I know how t...

“If your intuition tells you it’s a fit…” That phrase is the extent to which my guest today, Jess Lively, sells her services… Yet she is an extremely successful entrepreneur. So how did she get to a point in her life and business where she feels comfortable encouraging her clients to work with her if it “feels” right?  That’s exactly what you’re about to hear today… and how you can use her free-fl...

I’ll be honest, dear podcast listener… I need to come correct. Last week, I released a podcast episode titled The Secret to Dealing with Social Media Haters , and I didn’t serve you or the rest of the Jasmine Star Show podcast community right. >>In last week’s podcast, I discussed how to let the comments from social media haters fall off your back… but I didn’t give you tactical tips on what...

Since you started taking action on what you’ve learned throughout the Crypto Curious series, you’re aaaaalmost an NFT pro now. But there are just a few more terms to be familiar with, and then we’ll close out this series with how you can make money by creating NFTs! Want to learn about which businesses should create NFTs, how to mint your own, as well as Daniel’s predictions for the future of NFTs...

Though I’ve never been a trend-setter, I’ve always been a trend-watcher… and when it comes to Instagram, I have an eagle eye. After all, keeping up with the trends plays a vital role in getting our accounts discovered! >>I want to help you get more eyes on your account and more money in your business.<< So if you’re ready to learn about the 3 trends business owners should be exploring...

If you’d like to make money in the NFT space, you’ll have to sell them eventually. >>NFT purchases can 10x or even 100x in value! So why wouldn’t you want to cash in on that kind of growth?<< That being said, this episode is the 4th part of our Crypto Curious series, and it covers how and when to sell an NFT, and we also answer listener questions such as what an “airdrop” and “delayed...

Haters. Like every household has dirty laundry, we’ve all got ‘em. And just like the hamper of overflowing laundry that remains ignored in my closet, I also choose to turn the other cheek when haters troll me on the Internet! >>It’s not because I think I’m cool… It's because I don’t have time to worry about the opinions of someone who is not paying my bills.<< So not only do I ign...

By now, you probably know that me and Daniel (Software Developer for Social Curator) are fascinated by the massively powerful world of cryptocurrency. >>We believe that cryptocurrency is the way of doing business in the future, and this series was created to educate you on the topic, as well as help you make an informed decision on the place these digital assets will have in the next iterati...

Do you wish you had more money? You and me both! That’s why I decided to invite Derrick Kinney, top financial advisor and CEO of Good Money Framework, onto the Jasmine Star Show.  He has applied his proven principles around wealth with thousands of clients, and who most recently sold his multimillion-dollar business to teach these success steps to you. >>Derrick’s goal is to inspire you to m...

Gary Vaynerchuk recently equated the development of NFTs with the discovery of fire … and stated that ALL of us will own them one day. The question I have for you is: will you continue to sit on the sidelines or choose to spend time educating yourself on this groundbreaking technology? If you’re interested in the latter, it’s time to purchase your first NFT, and this episode (Part 2 of my Crypto C...

One of my favorite parts of what I do is getting to coach Social Curator users in all different industries all over the world. And this coaching session is no exception! I loved getting to know Karen, Celeste, Sarah, and Chrystal, and empowering them to make bold decisions to push them outside of their comfort zones and onto the path to success. In this episode, you’ll hear my raw answers to the f...

“The best time to start was yesterday. The next best time is now.” -Unknown This quote is the only way I could think of to open up my brand new 5-part Crypto Curious series, because so many of us feel like we’re already behind when it comes to NFTs. >>However, only 16% of Americans own cryptocurrencies , and only 360,000 people in the entire world own at least 1 NFT .<< Those numbers a...

A few weeks ago, our family went to Las Vegas, Nevada. As I walked through Caesar’s Palace with my daughter, I had a distinct memory of my grandmother from when I was a little girl. I turned to JD and asked, “Do you think we knew how special the moments with grandma were?” >>I felt like every moment with her was a golden nugget, and I suddenly realized that though we had the golden nuggets,...
