Collaborations are gaining in popularity lately and it’s easy to get caught in the trap of doing them just to do them. But what you need to keep in mind is whether or not collaborations make sense for you and your business as a marketing strategy.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing what collaborations are, why they sometimes don’t work, and how to determine if they are right for you. Plus, collaborations are not one size fits all, so try a few different ones and see how it feels.

As the leader of your business, it’s important to keep investing in yourself personally and professionally. Your business is going to evolve and you have to evolve with it. There are always seasons in life that will impact your priorities and it’s OK to be open to change.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Sam Abbott, a registered dietitian nutritionist, about how her business has shifted as she navigated moving her brick and mortar practice completely online, recovering from long COVID, and being diagnosed with ADHD.

The topic of business success keeps coming up lately and I had to record this episode to address what I’m seeing and how to reframe it. So many business owners focus too much on the timeline of reaching certain business milestones and not enough on what’s already been accomplished.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing how to redefine what business success really means, how to celebrate what you’ve achieved, and how to stop comparing your business to someone else’s.

Not feeling aligned in your business can lead to feelings of frustration and imposter syndrome. Listening to what other people think you should do in your business is not going to fulfill you. You need to discover what lights you up.
In today’s episode, I’m talking with Lindsey Lopez Horwitz, founder of Virtually Lindsey and a former client of mine, about how she embraced alignment in her business and made the mindset shifts to get her there. Lindsey shares how being coachable, finding the things that lit her up, and reframing how she presented herself online led her to become unapologetically bold in her business.

Selling is something we’ve all struggled with at some point or another. We’ve seen the icky practices online and want to avoid it at all costs. I get it. I’ve been there, too. There’s a lot of pressure when it comes to sales and it’s even worse when you don’t have the confidence you need to sell like a CEO.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing how you can build that confidence and shift your mindset when it comes to sales. It’s a pep talk from the heart with advice on how to approach sales as a connection. Remember: not closing a sale isn’t failure. It’s practice and research that you can use to build more opportunities in your business.

When you started your business, did you have trouble stepping into the CEO role? Perhaps your people-pleasing tendencies or insecurities had you asking other people for advice and permission instead of leading the way. These barriers are normal and can be overcome by shifting your mindset in your business.
In today’s episode, I’m talking with Marissa Miluk on how she’s fully embraced being the CEO of her business by infusing it with her unique personality and continually investing in herself. By doing so, she’s fostered a deeper sense of community with her audience and grown her social following by leaps and bounds.

This is a story about how I learned to bake sourdough bread from scratch, after being intimidated by it for quite some time. But it’s really a story about how imposter syndrome can seep into every part of your life, and how you can fight it.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing what exactly imposter syndrome is, how it shows up in our lives (no matter who you are), and my advice on how to change your mindset and move past your limiting beliefs. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there and try something new. Even if the outcome isn’t what you expected, it doesn’t mean you failed.

When you come up with an idea for a business, and even when you’re well into owning and running a business, imposter syndrome can hit hard. It can be easy to think that you’re not capable or that you have to try something completely different. But if you take a beat and follow your intuition, you’ll see that you don’t have to ditch your business or start all over with a new idea.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Amy Nielson about how she has grown her business making printables for teachers to a multi-million dollar business operating on a membership model. She’s talking about how important it is to do something that you love, how to reframe entrepreneurial challenges as opportunities, and the importance of collaboration.

Summer is coming, and I know we all want to soak up the sunshine with family or friends or even have some extra time to ourselves. That’s a big part of why we became entrepreneurs, right? To prioritize time off to recharge.
In today’s episode, I’m talking about why it is so important to prioritize the life that you want to live. I’m sharing three things I want you to do, right now, to make time for yourself.
Whether it’s shorter work days in the summer, taking off the entire month of December, or 3-day weekends, make yourself a priority. Your business should support your lifestyle and not the other way around.

Our goals in life change constantly depending on our circumstances. Maybe you recently started a family, or you want to spend more time practicing your hobby, or you long to travel. For today’s guest, she realized that teaching required valuable energy that meant she was too tired and overwhelmed to pour into her own child. That was the wake up call she needed to make a change.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Arianna Vernier, a teacher turned work-from-home mom who coaches other moms and former teachers on how to start their own virtual assistant businesses. She herself started out as a VA after leaving her teaching job, and the transition to mentor and coach has allowed her even more flexibility and freedom.

In today’s episode, I’m talking about types of monthly recurring revenue (MRR), how to think about MRR in an outside the box way, the benefits of building on clients that you already have, and tapping into your strengths to take your offers to the next level to sustain customers longer term.

Investing in yourself is never something you’ll regret. No matter the outcome, you’re going to learn something valuable about yourself and what you want (or don’t want) for your business.
In this episode, I’m chatting with Lisa McHargue about her experience in my Consulting Framework Accelerator program. She’s sharing how she got into the online space and why joined CFA and how it has benefited both practical applications and growth mindset within her business.

Today, I’m talking with my guest and dear friend Natalie Gingrich of the Ops Authority all about core values.
The hard truth is that you can’t make the best business decisions and attract the right clients without clear, defined core values. You have to define, refine, and incorporate your core values and let them create the foundation for your business before you can do the work that is most aligned for you.
In this episode, Natalie shares how she defined her core values, her experiences with making business decisions that weren’t aligned with her values, and how you can make creating your core values a priority right now.

So many women I speak with want to move their business to the next level, but they just feel… stuck when it comes to getting to the next step. These aren’t women lacking in skill or expertise or even ambition.
No, what they’re missing is the confidence they need to believe in their own strengths and strategic abilities. And so often, they’re lacking confidence because they don’t know themselves.
In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to get to know yourself, why knowing yourself allows you to be confident in your decisions and skills, and how that confidence can transform your business, by allowing you to step into roles where you can share your strategic brilliance, instead of relegating yourself to an implementation role for others.
If you’re ready to unlock the key to business growth with ease, keep listening. This episode will get you started on that path.

You have poured your heart and soul into your business, making sure that it’s aligned with who you are and what you want to offer … and now you need a brand that fits. And not just a logo and color palette but also visual messaging that speaks to your target audience and also what your business represents.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Abbey McGrew of Wayfarer Design Studio about building a brand with a heart-led strategic approach, starting with baby steps when you don’t know what you want, common mistakes to avoid, and the benefits of working with a brand professional.
Whether your business is brand new or getting a revamp, your brand is an important part of relaying who you are to your potential customers. And while you technically can DIY it, working with a professional saves you time and gives you invaluable expertise for landing on a brand that feels truly aligned.

Embracing your CEO role on a deeper level is so important. If you have listened to this podcast before, you know how strongly I feel about personal leadership development. If you’re not already doing it, I want to encourage you to find what works for you to explore who you are at your core, what drives you, and how you best operate within your business.
In today’s episode, I’m talking about my three favorite tools—The Kolbe A Index, Enneagram, and Human Design—and how I use each of them in embracing my role as CEO, building teams, navigating projects, and more.
We are not all designed the same way. Even within each of these tools, there are many different ways to be and function and thrive and move through the world. Take some time to dig deep and embrace who you are on a deeper level.
Do you want to get to know your own personalized energetic blueprint? Click here to download your FREE human design chart. To go even further, I’m offering a day of Voxer where we can dive deeper into your chart and how you can show up as a more empowered version of your CEO self.

Leaving the 9-5 world to become an entrepreneur comes with a lot of flexibility. However, if you don’t set boundaries—and stick to them—you won’t be able to achieve the balance that you desire. It’s easy to trade freedom for burnout if you’re not careful.
In today’s episode, I’m talking about why entrepreneurs get burnt out, the importance of sticking to the boundaries that you set, and how to have difficult conversations around boundaries.
The more you know who you are, the easier it is to identify boundaries that work for you. Asking questions of yourself and taking steps to implement your boundaries will keep you aligned in your business.

Learning to trust yourself is an ongoing journey toward alignment as the CEO of your business, but it can change everything!
