In this transformative solo episode, abundance expert and business coach Sarah Walton reveals why traditional business strategies often fall short and shares the energetic approach to growth that's changing everything for ambitious women entrepreneurs. Through personal stories, including a remarkable synchronicity involving a pair of jeans, Sarah explores how shifting from chasing to receiving can revolutionize your business results. If you've built a successful business but still feel stuck, exhausted, or like you're forcing every outcome, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on scaling with soul, strategy, and sanity. What You'll Learn: 1. Why "just being strategic" stops working at higher levels of business success 2. The difference between chasing abundance and allowing it to flow to you naturally 3. How your nervous system impacts your ability to scale sustainably 4. The power of making clear requests to the universe while releasing attachment to outcomes 5. Why community and being truly seen are essential for business expansion 6. Real client transformation stories that prove it's about becoming, not just doing 7. How to shift from over-functioning to receiving what's already trying to reach you 8. The energetic frequency that successful entrepreneurs embody versus those who struggle Sarah Walton challenges the conventional wisdom that business success comes solely from better strategies and harder work. Drawing from 18 years of entrepreneurial experience, she reveals how the most successful business owners operate from a different frequency altogether-one of alignment, trust, and receiving rather than constant chasing and forcing. The episode opens with Sarah's powerful assertion that "businesses don't fail, they quit," setting the stage for a deeper exploration of what happens when entrepreneurs move beyond survival mode into true abundance. Through the delightful story of manifesting the perfect pair of jeans, Sarah illustrates how the universe responds when we make clear requests without attachment, demonstrating principles that directly apply to business growth. Sarah addresses the loneliness and isolation many entrepreneurs face, explaining how the quality of our daily conversations shapes our business reality. She emphasizes that successful scaling isn't about finding better tactics, but about becoming the person who can hold larger results without breaking. The episode includes inspiring stories from her Abundance Academy, where clients have achieved 7x revenue growth by shifting their energy and approach. Key insights include understanding that 90%of sales is energy while only 10% is what you're selling, the importance of surrounding yourself with the right community, and how our nervous system either supports or sabotages our next level of success. Sarah concludes with practical guidance on moving from strategy-focused to frequency-focused business building.

Ready to grow? This episode will help you do it with intention, resilience, and a whole lot of heart.

Ever wondered why some businesses flourish while others fizzle out quickly? It all boils down to playing the long game. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to chase instant gratification. But lasting success—real, sustainable growth—comes from decisions made today that pay off months or even years down the road.

What if you stopped settling for “just enough” and started building a business and a life that's bigger, bolder, and unapologetically yours? In this episode, Shauna Lynn opens up about the invisible barriers holding women back from scaling their businesses beyond boutique-level success. Drawing from personal experience and eye-opening statistics, Shauna Lynn explores why women often limit themselves to comfort zones, the hidden worthiness gap many don't even realize they have, and how deeply ingrained money mindsets shape pricing decisions and growth potential. But this conversation isn't just about naming the problem; it's about action. Shauna Lynn shares real-world examples from top companies that prove working smarter, not harder, is possible. Plus, she introduces three mindset exercises designed to help you rewrite your relationship with wealth and start envisioning the leader you want to become. If you're ready to shift from surviving to thriving, without sacrificing your values... this episode offers clarity, inspiration, and practical tools to help you get there.Timestamps:(05:15) – Why women-owned businesses stay small and the invisible barriers keeping them there(11:42) – The “enough” mindset and how it quietly limits your business growth and income(21:09) – Real-world examples of companies thriving with premium pricing and working less(34:30) – How to raise your prices and optimize without overwhelming yourself or your clients(47:56) – Three money mindset exercises to help women entrepreneurs start dreaming biggerResources:Set up a free Introductory Business Planning Session with Shauna Lynn: AboutShaunaLynn.com/planLearn more about the show: AboutShaunaLynn.com/podcastTake The Accidental CEO Assessment: https://www.aboutshaunalynn.com/ceoquizRead Two Second Lean by Paul Akers: https://amzn.to/3GJL4o8
