Podcasts about building your business

You can feel it the moment Vanessa Raymond starts talking, she has lived more than one life. She begins as a musical theater performer from South Africa, travels the world, then hits the quiet question that comes after you reach a lifelong dream: now what? From that crossroads, she moves into fitness, wellness, and ultimately entrepreneurship, learning the hard parts most of us avoid: sales, marketing, and how to consistently grow a client base.We get real about what it takes for a small business to actually scale. Vanessa shares why mentorship matters, how “launch and adjust” beats waiting for the perfect time, and what happens when you finally stop trying to do everything alone. She also pulls back the curtain on Achieve Systems, the global entrepreneur community she now co-runs with her husband, Robert Raymond, and the practical resources that help business owners at every level, from brand-new founders to leaders pushing past seven and eight figures.You will hear specific growth tools like business plan templates, lead generation that feeds the top of your funnel, and systems for building revenue streams that boost visibility and credibility. We also dig into why in-person conferences still create the strongest trust in a digital and AI-driven era, plus the confidence work behind the strategy, finding your zone of genius, and standing in your power.If you are building a business, dreaming about starting one, or craving a smarter way to grow, press play and take notes.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I, Rachel Wortman, conclude our four-week series on spiritual intelligence for your business. Today, we dive deep into the concept of building a business with an eternal perspective. I emphasize the importance of living our lives as Christians with an understanding that some things we do will last for eternity, while others will not. I share three key strategies for integrating this eternal mindset into your business practices. First, I discuss the significance of making disciples through your work. It's not about turning every client into a prayer buddy, but rather about being aware of our ability to influence and transform people positively. I highlight the importance of prioritizing personal development and spiritual growth over mere profit. NEXT STEPS Let's connect! How can I help serve your business?

Today is Memorial Day, and Daniela didn't want to let this day pass without saying something she genuinely believes needs to be said. Not as a coach or a CEO, but as a human being who is fully aware of how much she's been given — and how easy it is to forget that in the middle of a hard business week.   This episode is a reflection on freedom: what it cost, what it makes possible, and why the ability to build a business is not something any of us should be taking for granted. Daniela shares what Memorial Day actually means — and how sitting with the weight of that, even briefly, changes the lens through which we see the hard parts of entrepreneurship.   Whether you're heading into this long weekend rested or running on empty, this one is for you.   In this episode, we discuss:   Why Memorial Day is distinct from Veterans Day, and why that distinction matters The direct connection between the sacrifices of those who served and the freedom to build a business Why entrepreneurship, at its core, is an act of freedom — not a burden The question Daniela wants you to ask yourself the next time you're in a hard week A reminder that being tired doesn't mean you're failing; it means you're building something real A closing reflection for the families who are marking this day with grief, and for every spa owner who sometimes forgets what a gift it is to keep building   Want to break past $25K–$35K months without adding more treatment hours? Watch The Systems Shift and learn how 600+ spa owners are scaling into their Spa CEO role (without sacrificing family time or sanity). 

In this week's episode I cover the two types of coaches I'm seeing in the industry right now, and why one ends up building a stable, long-term business while the other burns out chasing clients, cash, and short-term results.

Welcome to the inaugural episode of our new series on Wisdom's Table, where we delve into the concept of spiritual intelligence for your business. I'm your host, Rachel Wortman, and today, we're exploring the profound relationship between God's timing and our entrepreneurial journeys. In this episode, I share a revelation I received while driving, which inspired me to discuss the importance of spiritual intelligence in building businesses that align with the Kingdom of God. I emphasize that as believers, we need more than just skills and strategies; we require discernment, alignment, and a deep understanding of who we are in Christ.

Have you ever felt like you're working hard, staying busy, meeting with people… but something just isn't clicking? You know your business should be further along, but if someone asked you, “What exactly isn't working?” would you have a clear answer? Most financial advisors, insurance agents, wholesalers, branch managers, and agency managers struggle to improve their business, not because they lack effort but because they lack a structured way to evaluate what's actually happening and figure out what to do about it. Instead, they react repeatedly. They chase ideas, blame the market, or say things like, “I just need more leads” or “My clients don't have urgency.” In this episode, you'll learn how to build a Business Improvement Plan, a step-by-step framework that helps you identify where you are, define where you want to be, and create a clear strategy to get there. When you shift from reacting to operating with a plan, everything can change.

When Colleen Florendo's sisters called her selfish for not lending her clothes, she didn't realize that word would become the foundation of her entire business philosophy. Today I'm talking with Colleen, an embodied messaging strategist and selfish(ish) leadership guide, about her journey from blog writing on Upwork to creating a totally unique offer that didn't take off for six months, but when it did, she couldn't keep up. We're diving into why she stuck with an offer nobody understood at first, how she transitioned from done-for-you to mentorship (and why that was terrifying), and why portfolios might actually be commoditizing you instead of helping you stand out.Plus: What "selfishly express" actually means and why AI makes going deeper non-negotiable. Connect with Colleen: WebsiteInstagramTikTokFreebie: Work of Heart (purge all the shoulds on how to show up)Send us Fan MailThank you for being a part of the Soulpreneur Scaling Stories community, where VAs & OBMs turn unstructured expertise into a signature method and a business that pays them for outcomes, not hours.

At the 2026 Midwest Honey Bee Expo, Jeff and Becky briefly introduce a live business-focused panel before turning the conversation over to experienced beekeepers representing different scales of operation, including Kamon Reynolds, John Hill and MHBE Co-Founder, Doug Koltermann. The discussion centers on the realities of running a beekeeping operation in today's environment. Panelists address audience questions about profitability, input costs, labor, equipment investment, overwintering losses, and adapting management strategies in response to market and environmental pressures. From hobbyist beekeepers considering growth to sideliners and commercial operators evaluating margins, the panel offers candid insight into what it takes to keep colonies healthy while maintaining a sustainable business model. The exchange highlights how regional challenges, varroa pressure, and fluctuating honey markets shape decision-making at every level. Recorded live on the Expo floor, this episode captures both the practical concerns and collaborative spirit of the beekeeping community. Whether you're running a few colonies or several thousand, the conversation offers perspective on navigating risk, managing costs, and planning for the seasons ahead.

Happiness can be tricky for entrepreneurs, especially when the outside world thinks you've already “made it.” In this episode, Dan Sullivan shares a simple daily framework for staying genuinely happy as an entrepreneur, regardless of what's happening in your business, your relationships, or the larger world around you.Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:Why an entrepreneur's happiness depends on three simple ingredients.How to measure your daily achievement in a way that actually feels like progress.What excites Dan most about creating and sharing a brand-new thinking tool.Why your greatest value shows up when you spend your time doing activities you genuinely love. Show Notes: Entrepreneurial happiness comes from a way of being that you practice every day, not a goal or a destination. The first ingredient for a happy entrepreneurial life is making real daily progress, not just occasional big wins. Measuring yourself against an ideal future is like measuring your distance to the horizon line—you never feel any closer. You feel genuinely successful when you measure progress against where you started and what you've actually achieved. A simple end-of-day reflection on what you accomplished turns an ordinary day into a tangible gain you can build on tomorrow. The second ingredient for a happy entrepreneur is liking who you are, which means appreciating how you handle setbacks, not pretending you've never made mistakes.When you give yourself grace for past decisions, it becomes much easier to extend that same grace to other people. Even if you don't achieve your goal, you can be pleased with how you went about things. Being truly useful to other people each day is the third ingredient that makes entrepreneurial happiness feel complete.Strategic Coach® is built on hundreds of thinking tools that help entrepreneurs reframe situations and recognize the progress they're actually making. These three ingredients—progress, self-liking, and usefulness—keep you grounded in the present instead of trapped in past regrets or future fantasies. Of the three, liking who you are carries special weight because without self-respect, progress and usefulness don't feel satisfying.It's hard to feel useful doing work you're not good at or don't enjoy, so designing your role around your Unique Ability® is crucial for happiness. Greater self-awareness helps you like yourself more because you understand which situations you handle well and which ones you should avoid or delegate. Dan describes happiness as living in “local reality”—what's real, available, and actionable right now, instead of chasing someone else's reality.Viewing each day through this three-part lens is a practical way to keep your entrepreneurial confidence high, no matter what challenges arise. Resources: The Gap And The Gain by Dan Sullivan with Dr. Benjamin Hardy Shannon Waller's Team Success podcast Unique Ability® The Positive Focus®

What if the resistance you feel toward social media, creating certain offers, or showing up in specific ways isn't something to push through but a clue showing you exactly how you're NOT wired to work? What if astrology could give you the additional layer of nuance that explains why you keep attracting clients with not-enoughness around worth, why you need autonomy and financial security to feel safe, or why building community on social media feels slow and delayed no matter what strategies you try?In this first episode of a three-part series building off the November series, I'm breaking down the basics of reading your natal chart for business alignment. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:How to use your first house and rising sign to understand your core identity and how you show up in the world, whether that's Scorpio's depth and intensity that won't tolerate surface-level conversation, Leo's creative leadership that needs to shine and be seen, or Virgo's precision and excellence that's designed for quality over quantity, and why operating counter to this identity creates friction in everything else you build.The second house revelation around money and how you're designed to earn income like Sagittarius in the second house with Mars and Neptune creating this feast-or-famine pattern of expansive earning with boundless spending unless there's containment, or why having no planets in the second house doesn't mean you're not here to make money but that you need to look at the eighth house and might be designed to earn through partnerships, affiliates, or leveraging other people's communities rather than the individual entrepreneurial model everyone pushes.Why your empty third house might explain your resistance to social media and short-form content (like Kathryn's Capricorn third house with Saturn in the 12th showing her communication style is hidden, behind-the-scenes depth work, not constant visibility), while clients with third house stelliums are natural content creators who thrive in that space, and how this isn't a limitation to overcome but a design clue showing you exactly where NOT to force your energy.The critical relationship between your sixth house (daily habits, how you serve, what you need for wellbeing), seventh house (partnerships and who you attract), and your midheaven placement in the ninth, tenth, or eleventh house that shows whether your career revolves around teaching and travel, the work itself and vocation, or creating community, and why understanding these together reveals the practical structure of how your business actually needs to function rather than how you think it should based on what you see others doing successfully.And while you're here, follow us on Instagram @creativelyowned for more daily inspiration on effortlessly attracting the most aligned clients without spending hours marketing your business or chasing clients.

If you feel stuck, burnt out, or like success is harder for you than it is for everyone else—you're not broken. But you might be building your business the hard way.Too many entrepreneurs try to grow their businesses like they don't have real-life challenges—whether it's chronic illness, past trauma, or just a different way of thinking and working. We've been conditioned to believe success only comes from pushing harder, doing more, and following someone else's formula. But what if that's exactly what's keeping you stuck?In this episode, we're talking about: 

It's tempting to look at others in our industry to see if we're doing things the right way, especially when others are more successful than us. We might look at what others are doing to decide what we plan to do in our business. There are times when following others' advice makes sense, yet there are also times when following our own intuition is better. In this episode, I want to talk to you about when to do things your own way, why it's safe to do so and how to productively compare yourself to others in your industry. Tune in today!
