It's time to get real with y’all … creating a successful business overnight just doesn't happen. It's unrealistic, sets terrible standards for the online business world, and overall perpetuates the idea that if you don't crush it overnight there's something wrong with you or your business. Signing your first client can take some time simply because there's a major learning curve you are trying to understand PLUS you're a new business that's trying to gain the trust of customers who have never seen you serve in the way you are serving before. So let's drop the belief that you have to become an overnight success and step into the most realistic (and fastest) way to sign your first client.
In today's episode you'll hear:
- Why people's buying process can take time
- Where Katie & Ashley spent their time at the beginning of their business
- Why focusing on this one area will actually make the sales process feel SO much easier
- Why the idea that people you know won't buy from you isn't true
- How this strategy looks in each of our businesses
Today's homework is to choose your favorite platform and reach out to 3 contacts to tell them about your services OR make a blanket post/declaration of your offer/service!

In last week’s episode, we talked about the 3 questions you need to know before you start marketing yourself and your online business and in today's episode we are building off of it because at this point - it's time to start shouting from the rooftops that you're an entrepreneur!
But wait - "I'm an entrepreneur". That feels hard to say out loud and what if people call you out...enter imposter syndrome. We get it it can be hard to own that you're an entrepreneur publicly so in today's episode we're covering some ways to overcome those fears including:
- Why it's normal to have fear about owning the fact you're an entrepreneur especially once you begin your business
- Why being visible in your business can feel challenging - especially as a woman in the patriarchy
- How showing up energetically as a CEO makes a HUGE difference in your success and the first step to take even if you feel frozen
- Why showing up online actually helps build trust with your clients
- Why you don't have to be dubbed an "expert" to be able to support your ideal client
So your homework today is to lean into discomfort and go tell someone you're an entrepreneur - even if it feels weird and even if it starts from a whisper.

So you want to start a business but like....how? Where do you start? What steps do you need to take? What goes first?

Running an online business as a new entrepreneur requires you to be a bit scrappy and get super involved in the nitty-gritty of your business in the very beginning. And while that can be fun, at some point in your business, you'll need to be able to scale your time so you can focus on your most important tasks (i.e. serving your clients) which means you will likely consider hiring your first team member. Hiring your first team member is the easiest way to scale your results in your business and in today's episode we talk about 3 things you should know when it comes to hiring your team.
In this episode you'll hear:
- Ashley's tip for getting your mindset behind your hiring process - I know handing the reigns of your baby business over to someone else is terrifying

Do you have a morning routine? How about an afternoon routine? How do you structure your lifestyle as an entrepreneur so that you aren't falling back into the habits that may or may not have gotten you burnt out?
In our minds, morning routines or basic time management principles are less about creating parameters around what you should and shouldn't be doing during your day and are more about starting and continuing your day/week with a positive, supportive mindset (even if your day doesn't truly begin until 11 am ).
Listen, we aren't here to tell you what time to start your day or give you an exact framework of what to implement at what time because the truth is only you know what and when you need to do things to support your well-being. But in case you are lost on how to manage your time in a way that feels supportive as a new entrepreneur, you'll want to run on over to your favorite podcast platform and listen to today's episode!
Today's guest, Rebecca Whitman, shares why morning routines and basic time management principles can help to create alignment and abundance in your life and business. Because let's be honest...when you dreamt about entrepreneurship it probably didn't include working 60 hours a week chained to a desk...if you wanted that - you could have stayed in corporate America. 🤷🏼♀️
In today's episode, you'll hear:
- How to create and structure your morning routine - even if you only have 10 minutes
- What and how to use Focus Days vs. Play Days to set your week up for success
- How to use the Pomodoro Method to get your hardest tasks done
- What to do when you feel guilty for too much play in your day - hint it's a long game!

When’s the right time to delegate your daily tasks as a CEO? At a certain point (whether that's revenue or clients you support), you'll need to be okay with outsourcing some of the tasks that someone else can handle for you. In our businesses, that looks like a Business Coach, a Virtual Assistant, and a Bookkeeper. We are SO passionate about hiring out certain tasks in our business because we know and have a major desire for our brainpower to be used on the things that actually move the needle forward in our business (i.e. serving our clients, business development, and content creation). But when should you start to hire out these tasks? Is there truly a right time?
In this episode, you'll hear:
- The things we've outsourced in our business and the types of roles you might consider outsourcing to in order to manage the back end of your business
