The Hella Rich Podcast

That's a wrap on Season 1! We're reflecting back on what it was like to record 26 episodes, running our businesses, and surviving the pandemic. If you're looking to start your own podcast, we want to share that the BTS is real, and we learned so much and loved the journey.   We hope we're inspiring other BIWOC women to take up space. Give yourself permission to do the damn thing! We are so grateful for you joining us for our 1st Season

Do you feel a huge sense of urgency in your business? As BIPOC women, it's been ingrained in us that we are only worth something if we work hard by the capitalist, colonial, patriarchal status quo. In this episode, we explore what it means to never act with urgency in your business. We also give tips on how to practice letting go of that nagging sense of fear, so you can get hella rich in time, money, and joy.

This episode is for those folx who are starting to think outside of their 1:1 client work and want to grow their own business. When you're working with clients day in and day out, it's really easy to put your client work first. But question arises-- who has time to work on their own business, when clients pay the bills? Try treating yourself as your best client-- you're worth it.

In this episode, we're talking through the mindset basura and fuckery that comes up when you're making big moves in your business and offerings. A lot of business coaches may call this “pivoting,” but we like to think of it like an expansion. Check out our journey to expand our businesses and stay aligned with our values. 

At any point in your business, you're always going to find a point where you have to bet on yourself. As entrepreneurs, we will never have the perfect plan and nothing is guaranteed, but what we can do is trust in ourselves, name the fear, and move on from them.

When choosing a coach or striving to become one, there's this idea that coaches have all the answers. Real talk-- coaches are not perfect. What's important is choosing a coach that you have chemistry with. And if you are a coach, allow yourself to be vulnerable and transparent about your methods. Ultimately, that's what will attract customers because being real builds trust.

Yes, our business is called Let's Get Hella Rich, but there's a reason we always talk about getting hella rich in time, money AND joy. Because when we focus on money: we start to compare and despair. We stop focusing on ourselves, and worst we stop moving forward on getting the work done. We (Allison & Nadia) talk about how focusing on other aspects of entrepreneurship is doing your business your own way!    

As an entrepreneur, you will encounter times when someone comments on your work, and often that feedback can be mistaken as criticism. In those moments, we'll deflect the constructive feedback because we get caught up in our emotions. In this episode, we (Nadia and Allison) discuss how, despite the initially icky reaction, receiving feedback is a gift. We share a recent story that got us in our feels but actually gave us an opportunity to grow.

It's no secret that the various apps and platforms we use today have been created to prop up the hella male and hella pale demographic.  So we're (Allison & Nadia) following up our last episode with the same energy: take up space and FUCK UP the white-centered algorithm. In this episode, we'll discuss why BIWOC representation is so important on social media and how we show up online without those bro-y/sleazy marketing tactics.

Why bring your business idea into the world if you're just going to keep it all to yourself? Your people (ideal clients) are out there WAITING for you to show up at their doorstep. Don't let the trolls or haters in your social network stop you from sharing your magic. We (Allison & Nadia) are very familiar with the variety of trolls that show up in the lives of our BIWOC clients. Sometimes it's our former colleagues, shady family members, and peers. We'll teach you how to unapologetically self-promote, find a supportive community, and exercise the block button when needed.  

Not all business coaches are made the same, so don't be afraid to be picky! There has to be a few boxes checked off before making that initial investment. Do they specialize in the area you need help with? Do their values and coaching methods resonate with you? We'll (Allison & Nadia) guide you through a simple two-part process to finding a business coach that aligns with the transformation you want.

Sometimes following "what brings you joy" in business isn't enough. Even your favorite parts have to go through an audit. So ask yourself: Does it move you towards your North Star? Is it taking up too much of your time? Is this holding you back from leveling up? We (Allison & Nadia) know it's not easy to cut out the favorite parts of your business, but you have to make room for growth. In this episode, we'll show you how to realign your business offerings and priorities towards fitting the bigger picture.

You're going to experience some "OH FUCK" moments in business, where you have to draw your line in the sand about who you are as a business owner, what you/your business represent, and who you want to work with. Use these hard and inconvenient moments as a sign to say goodbye to the shit you don't wanna do.  At the very least, listen to this episode as we (Allison & Nadia)share our client horror stories that led us to bet on ourselves and go all out in our businesses.  Learn from our own "OH FUCK" moments and make business decisions that align with your values and move you toward your North Star.

As a business owner, being in alignment with your North Star, (aka your big why) is everything. It's the foundation of your values, offers, brand voice, marketing, ideal clientele, and how you show up as a leader in your industry. We (Allison & Nadia) combined our big dreams of making a big impact, using our professional expertise to help WOCs, and building generational wealth to create our joint business, Let's Get Hella Rich. In this episode, we'll show you how to evaluate and realign yourself with your North Star, the ultimate key to more time, money, and joy in your business.

Trust us, you'll attract those high-paying clients by owning your experience and unique value. If you want juicy, savory, and well-seasoned messaging, then you're in the right place. We (Allison & Nadia) are going to call out all the ways you've been playing it safe/small and provide a two-step strategy towards writing copy that sounds hella real.

We (Allison & Nadia) almost fell for the trap and got caught into the 24/7 work cycle that MANY entrepreneurs become victim to. Our Let's Get Hella Rich community was popping off with engagement and we wanted to keep the momentum going. So with no proper schedule or system in place, we began neglecting our personal time and boundaries to respond to questions/give feedback. In this episode, we'll show you how to catch yourself in this spiral, define boundaries in your business, and make a series of decisions to protect your time and joy.  Being hella rich in time, money, and joy is all about the maintenance!

Wait, wait! Don't be too quick to "fire your clients" when challenges or issues come up.
