Conversations for soul-led entrepreneurs who want to do what lights them up and express why they came here through entrepreneurship.
Episode 10: What You Need to Open Your Business
So you’ve left your 9-to-5, now what? This week, we discuss what you might need in order to officially open your doors for business. This advice is based on our individual experiences–what we did do, what we didn’t do, and what we regret doing or not doing!
Note: We are not lawyers or accountants, and while we share what worked for us, we always encourage you to consult a professional for advice and guidance on your specific business and situation. Based on their advice and your unique situation, do what works and feels best for you! But our number 1 piece of advice is to do all your research before committing to any one thing.

Episode 8: Are You Overthinking It?
Our exploration into common weaknesses and blocks concludes this week with overthinking–or what we might call “Analysis, Paralysis.” We share what overthinking looks like in our businesses, how we work with it and through it, and what are some ways to redirect our energy so we can continue to create.

Episode 7: The Cycle of Procrastination
In this episode, we’re continuing our exploration into the common weaknesses and blocks we encounter as Soulpreneurs by diving into Procrastination. We examine what it looks like in our businesses and work, why it tends to pop up again and again, and how we can stop ourselves from getting back into the loop of procrastination. We also explore the four common types of procrastinators to try and find out which ones we are! Listen in and see which patterns you often fall into.

Episode 5: Working Through Your Weaknesses
The Soulpreneur life calls you to wear many hats at once: it calls you to be the boss and all of the employees, especially when you’re starting out. In this process, we are confronted with our own weaknesses, blocks, and shortcomings. The Soulpreneur life calls us to move through them and heal them as we build our businesses, which can be challenging but also very rewarding.
In this episode, we talk about the various weaknesses that can show up and how to deal with them when they do. In the episodes to follow, we’ll be diving deeper into each of the more common weaknesses so you can get some concrete examples. Join us on this journey to understand and manage our weaknesses!

Episode 4: Your Clients & Community
In this last episode of our Foundational series, we discuss the process of discovering your ideal client or customer–and eventually, building your community. Taa’Nesha shares how she was able to build a community through her Instagram, and Marcy talks about the process of continuing to revise and refine her ideal client. We work through an exercise to get clearer on your ideal client in the episode, so you can try it for yourself.

Episode 3: Your Services & Offerings
In this next installment of our Soulpreneur foundational series, we talk about establishing services and offerings that are in alignment with you and your clients/customers. Your offerings are ultimately an energetic exchange as much as a physical one, so we need to explore what feels like the right balance between giving and receiving on multiple levels. Often, finding our perfect set of offerings takes time and experimentation, which can feel frustrating. We share some of the lessons we’ve learned so that you can start asking yourself the right questions as you explore what you’d like to offer.

In Episode 2, we kick off a series of episodes focused on The Beginning. This is a phase we must all go through as Soulpreneurs—and it’s not a stage that ever fully completes. Soul-led businesses move through various cycles, meaning there’s always somewhere in our business where we are playing the role of beginner.
This episode begins with the many mindset shifts you’ll likely make as a soulpreneur, as you gradually learn what it means to manage and create a soul-led business. It’s important not to be afraid of these shifts and to instead fully embrace them, and we explain how we’ve done that. We each share the mindset shifts we’ve made on our journey: Taa’Nesha shares the perspective of someone who has led multiple businesses, and Marcy shares from the beginner’s perspective.
