The Embodied CEO

S2 Ep 12: How to Make an Impact in Your Business at Any Age with Aislinn McKenna

I’m always blown away by young people who have tremendous self-confidence and aren’t afraid to go after what they want in business. It helps to have supportive mentors along the way to guide you, but you also have to have the chutzpah to pull it off.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Aislinn McKenna, an intuitive business coach and former wedding photographer, who started her business when she was only 16 years old. Aislinn shares how she attracted the right clientele, how she focused her pricing on the value that she brings to the table, and what it means to be an intuitive business coach.
What’s in this episode:
[04:41] I’m so impressed by Aislinn’s self-confidence and how she started her wedding photography business while she was still in high school(!)
[16:08] How Aislinn made the jump to photographing luxury weddings by intuitively attracting the right clientele and focusing her pricing on value

S2 Ep 11: Authenticity, Passion, and Online Boundaries with Elisabeth Scott

So many business owners focus on the wrong thing when it comes to social media. It’s truly not about how many followers you have, it’s about showing up as your authentic self for your audience. 
In todays’ episode, I’m chatting with Elisabeth Scott, a runner and running coach who has grown her audience tremendously over the past few years. Elisabeth shares why you should focus on providing the best, most impactful information you can with your followers, why you shouldn’t be afraid to repeat yourself, and how to keep your online presence separate from your personal life.
What’s in this episode:
[03:16] Elisabeth shares how her business came from a desire to get healthy and why she felt compelled to start her running Instagram account during the pandemic

S2 Ep 10: A Big Dose of Manifestor Energy with Lauren Sharpe

It’s probably not a surprise to anyone who listens to this podcast, but not everyone understands the entrepreneur life. Gasp! They don’t realize that it’s a much freer, but also nonlinear path to achieving your dreams, especially if you have faith in yourself and a big dose of manifestor energy.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Lauren Sharpe, a registered dietitian and business coach with whom I have a lot in common, even though I’m 20 years older. Lauren shares her nontraditional path to becoming an entrepreneur, the valuable support she received from her parents who modeled a healthy work/life balance during her childhood, and how coming from a place of lack gave her the drive to succeed no matter what. 
What’s in this episode:
[01:49] Lauren and I bond on our connections to Florida and also our nonlinear paths to becoming registered dietitians
[07:32] The advantage of having people in your life who understand what being an entrepreneur entails and how it vastly differs from a traditional 9 to 5
[11:31] How coming from a place of lack and necessity sparks your entrepreneurial drive
[12:46] Why having trust in yourself is more important than having “proof” of a certain business outcome
[13:43] The freedom that being an entrepreneur can provide in terms of work/life balance and how modeling that for future generations is beneficial
[16:56] How Lauren started her entrepreneur journey as a dietitian but also fell in love with business coaching
[19:36] The power of manifestor energy and being certain of what you want to do in business

S2 Ep 9: The Energetics of It All with Emma Tynan

Intuition. Feminine Energy. Spirituality. These are not usually the first words you think of when you think of being a business owner—and that needs to change. To build a business that is yours (and not a copy of someone else’s), to do the thing you are meant to do (yes, we all have something we’re meant to do) … You have to get clear on your soul expression.
In today’s episode, I’m talking with Emma Tynan, spiritual leader and coach and someone who I deeply respect and connect with, and she’s sharing the importance of knowing who you are at your core and getting to the heart of your soul’s work, and how those things can help you build the business you truly want and are meant to have. 
What’s in this episode:
[04:06] How Emma and I bonded as business owners who are also parents doing parent things, and the importance of building your business sustainably when you have a family
[10:04] Emma’s work as a spiritual leader teaching people how to understand their energetics, and how your business is an extension of who you are at your core
[18:45] How emulating others doesn’t allow you to discover your definition of success, and why it’s difficult to answer the call of your own soul expression
[24:30] Why people struggle with trusting in something when they don’t have “proof”
[29:39] Why Emma (and me, too) is leading women to build more wealth in a feminine and intuitive way (f*ck that masculine energy all the time)

S2 Ep 8: Money & Spouses: A Raw Conversation About Entrepreneur Life

This is a big day, you guys. I talk about my husband, Christian, on the podcast a lot, and today he is here with me, and we’re talking about potentially the most contentious relationship topic: money. As many of you know, we are both entrepreneurs, both together and separately, and yet we have very different approaches towards money—which is why we have put in the work to find a middle ground that benefits us and our family.
In this episode, we’re talking about how our upbringings influenced our relationship to money and risk-taking, how we’ve learned to work together over the years (hint: honesty, trust, and communication), and why we both see intentional risk-taking as an investment in yourself. And we’re giving a little G-rated sneak peek into our relationship.
What’s in this episode:
[05:52] How different Christian’s upbringing was from mine when it came to money, jobs, and stability
[13:37] How our childhoods and parents influenced our career trajectories as adults, and how we’ve found a middle ground as business (and life) partners
[20:04] Why calculated risk-taking is important, and how to view it as a big picture investment that benefits your personal and professional life
[25:44] The importance of trust in a marriage when it comes to financial and entrepreneurial decisions, and what Christian thought when I decided to go all in on my coaching business
[32:38] Christian’s favorite and least favorite things about my personality, and my favorite and least favorite things about his
[36:38] My upcoming offerings

S2 Ep 7: Motivation Level Zero

I didn’t want to record this podcast today. I am tired, I didn’t sleep well, and I’ve already had way too many annoyances happen in my business. In short, I have absolutely no motivation to do this. But I’m here showing up, recording for you today, because sometimes things suck and we have to get shit done anyway.
This episode isn’t a call for you to hustle your way out of a slump. No, it’s the opposite. This is an encouragement for you, that for every single one of us as entrepreneurs, no matter how much money we make, no matter how much help we get, we’re still going to have shitty days. 
And getting through those days where we have no energy and no motivation is about giving ourselves grace, taking a break, and then still finding a way to finish what we need to get done.
What’s in this episode:
[00:54] The disastrous morning I had before recording this episode
[05:57] Why making more money is great… but it doesn’t change the fact that life is just life sometimes
[09:42] Why we can’t use other’s social media highlight reels to set goals for our life and business
[12:42] Why you have to figure out why your motivation is waning: is it because you're actually not passionate anymore or are you just tired from life?
[15:34] How I unintentionally put myself in a situation that sapped my motivation
[23:09] Why we’re always going to have to navigate those days where we have no motivation, no matter where we are in our business
[25:05] How to take a short break, regroup, and then show up and get shit done in your business anyway
[28:11] My current and upcoming offerings

S2 Ep 6: Permission to Burn It Down and Reignite Your Passion In Your Business with Olivia Glosser

Being an entrepreneur means constant pivoting. Ups and downs. Lack of stability. And even though most of us were raised to do life in a certain way, in a certain order, and following certain rules … Entrepreneurship doesn’t work that way.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Olivia Glosser, who is a dear friend, more or less my mini-me, and also a badass business coach. She’s sharing how she started her business when she was in college, why she approaches everything from a place of passion, and the importance of following your intuition.
Our paths are quite similar, and we want you to know that trusting yourself and having the confidence to shift in your business toward greater alignment and passion will be the best decision you ever make.
What’s in this episode:
[02:42] How Olivia and I met and how we each felt in the mastermind we were in together
[08:32] Olivia’s story of how she started her business as a fitness coach and then a business coach, and how she followed her passion even when others doubted her path
[14:54] How Olivia moves within her business from a place of passion, why she’s okay with having multiple passions, and following your intuition instead of the “rules”
[22:35] Creating your own path as an entrepreneur, having the self-trust and confidence to pivot, and how alignment in your business often means that money comes easier (and it means less burn out)

S2 Ep 5: Sometimes It Just Feels Sh*tty and That’s Ok

When you step into your full embodiment as a CEO and coach, you’re going to show up in a unique way that is totally you and that can’t be imitated. That being said, the more original your messaging, the more people are going to want—and try to—copy you.
In today’s episode, I’m talking about leading with integrity, embracing the “competition,” and confidently stepping into your power and uniqueness. As a coach, there’s going to be overlap with your work and others. If you can learn how to share your expertise and figure out how to be okay with people who try to replicate it, you’ll be leading from a place of embodiment and integrity.
What’s in this episode:
[03:13] Two examples of clients who proved their capabilities above and beyond this past month
[06:18] How embodiment informs leadership, and the importance of being a CEO with integrity
[10:06] Acknowledging your impact as a coach if/when someone mimics your unique messaging, and coaching yourself through that situation
[14:57] How to be confident in your embodiment as a coach and CEO and open to sharing your knowledge with others in your industry without seeing them only as “competition,” and why it feels good to make an impact in sharing what you know with others
[20:53] How coaching is about stepping into your power, setting an example, and being fully embodied in what you believe in and showing up no matter what
[23:16] Program and mastermind information if you want to work with me

If you’re ever had a bad coaching experience that didn’t feel aligned, don’t beat yourself up. We’ve all been there (yes, even me). A bad coaching experience can help you know what you do want from a coach, and how you want to show up as a coach yourself.

S2 Ep 4: Not All Coaches Are Great - So Don’t Settle

If you’re ever had a bad coaching experience that didn’t feel aligned, don’t beat yourself up. We’ve all been there (yes, even me). A bad coaching experience can help you know what you do want from a coach, and how you want to show up as a coach yourself.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Chrissy Williams, who is an RD that works with her clients from a functional health lens. She’s sharing how a bad coaching experience informed what she wanted for her own coaching business, why you should never let fear drive your decisions, and why a good coach will empower their clients to put in the work from a place that aligns with who they are as a person.
What’s in this episode:
[02:02] How Chrissy’s personal functional healing journey led her to combine her RD experience with functional health to become a coach for women of all ages
[05:39] Chrissy’s first coaching experience (which was not great), and why nothing you do should ever be based in fear or shaming your clients
[11:11] How Chrissy took this bad coaching experience and how she has changed as a coach as a result of that experience
[15:13] The importance of making sure your coaching business and style fit with your life – not the other way around – and why a good coach tailors their approach to fit their clients’ needs and empowers them to put in the work
[22:26] How coaching has affected Chrissy’s growth as a person, and how being coachable helps you be open to that personal growth
[27:16] Chrissy’s experience working with me as a coach, and why I help my clients dig deep to feel what they need to feel and get to the root of the problem

S2 Ep 3: Letting People Connect to the Real You

Do you ever feel like you shouldn’t let people see the real you on social media? That it isn’t “professional” to curse, to be vulnerable, to state your opinions unapologetically? Don't get sucked into these outdated notions. It is important now more than ever to show up as your true self in your business.
In today’s episode, I’m talking about why you have to ditch being the perfect “golden child” you were conditioned to be and start getting real. I’m sharing how I overcame that mentality and learned to be vulnerable and create meaningful connections with my clients, and how you need to do the same to find success and alignment in your business.
What’s in this episode:
[02:41] How I grew up as the “golden child” and how that need for external validation has manifested into missing out on connections with others
[09:07] Why trying to do everything right instead of trying to form connections will backfire in your coaching business
[13:27] How my most successful relationships have happened because I let my guard down and we connected with vulnerability, and how you can (and should) do the same
[20:39] Why it is important to show up in your business as your unapologetic self and why your clients will be interested in opening up to you when you share more openly with them
[24:02] Why connecting instead of achieving (don’t get me wrong, achieving is great) is what will get you clients that keep coming back
