This episode was so wonderful to listen back to! We hope you enjoy it. We will be back with Season 7 on January 24th!In this solo episode, Giselle opens up about why and how she launched a digital course. What seems like a couple of months of preparation for the course was really three years in the making. Giselle spills it all to encourage those that dream about making digital products but hold themselves back for many reasons — just like she did to herself.Giselle covers: product ideation, goal-setting, pre-launching and launching, imposter syndrome, progress over perfection, Essentialism by Greg McKeown, business coaching, overcoming shame, mental health challenges, and future ideas for the course.From Giselle:First off, I have to give a huge shoutout to the women that impacted my professional and personal lives, my previous coaches, and current friends: Avani Miriyala, Jane Scudder, and Kelsey Kerslake.I also wanted to address the importance of taking care of one's mental health in this episode.

There is no getting around it: building and leading a team is hard, hard work. Even if you're a charismatic people-person. Even if you've managed people inside a corporate environment before. Even if you understand in concept what makes a team great. There's just so much energy and emotion that goes into creating this group of people who are helping you carry out the vision of your business, and whose livelihood and wellbeing also become part of your care and awareness. It's vulnerable, humbling work that's FULL of mistakes. And — when you start to find your groove and you're figuring out how to hire, train, and how to manage a team successfully, it's truly amazing.  You get to see that great energy at work. You get to feel what it's like to have people who communicate well and who care about each other and about the business. You get to experience the joy of visions and projects and campaigns coming together.  It's a wonderful feeling!  Today, I'm sitting down with three women I admire so much and who have helped me in countless ways to become a better entrepreneur, leader, and person. Jordan Gill, Katie Read, and Kelsey Kerslake are coming into this conversation with such honesty, and I think that's precisely why it's such an important episode for any entrepreneur who's genuinely committed to being a solid leader of integrity and learning what makes a team efficient, engaged, and strong.  What you'll learn in this episode: How each of our guests currently is setting up her team (full-time, part-time, contractor, commission) The challenges and perks of running remote teams How to move from "the poster on the wall" to embodied, clear values Our biggest mistakes, biggest wins, and biggest lessons Dealing with the guilt of being a (recovering!) control freak and perfectionist Subscribe and Review Thanks so much for joining me this week.

If there's one word that I'd like to light on fire and roll down a hill it would be HUSTLE. If you're in your 30s or 40s, chances are you grew up in the "hustle hard or fail” era and that became your association with success. If you're not burning yourself out, you're failing, right? WRONG. I'm relieved to see the business industry as a whole Undoing this mentality because the truth is, while there are periods of focused, heavier work – there are also periods of simplicity, ease, and grace. Today, we're talking with Kelsey Kerslake about three foolproof steps you can take to work 5 hours per week AND make 6+ figures doing it. In this episode, you'll learn:3 big steps to start working less and earning moreHow to create a work-life alignmentThe value in focusing on one aspect as an entrepreneurWhat is holding back entrepreneurs from soaring high in businessKelsey is a multi-passionate CEO of two companies: Pinegate Road, and the Aligned Business.

Onya Mic, get set, listen.   Running a business needs the quality of being proactive. Sometimes that can mean that you have to hustle and have super busy days. At the same time, there should also be a white space.   Welcome to another episode of the Onya Mic Podcast hosted by Onya CEO Ashley Monk. Today Ashley is joined with Kelsey Kerslake,  the founder and CEO at The Aligned Business and Pinegate Road. She is an overall creative with an MFA background in design and brand strategy, and has scaled two multi-six figure businesses with an efficiently collaborative team.   As business owners and their teams need a time for visioning in order to give way to innovations in the biz. Kelsey defined white space as a time to get creative in developing ideas in order to decide which is the best path to take. Having a white space in your calendar means you are untouched by all the business of a tightly scheduled calendar.   Are you ready to set white spaces in your calendar in order to grow more? Stay tuned because we've got you covered here, and we've got more for you! How to build your business according to your preferences Working 1-hour per day in your business, is it possible?

Over the last decade, Kelsey has helped hundreds of online business owners like you build their brands and online presences as the Founder and Creative Director of Pinegate Road - personal branding and web design agency. She has her MFA in Graphic Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design, and is a life and business coach. In 2016, she successfully made the transition from working in Corporate America while pursuing a side hustle, to the CEO of her own online design agency and education business. She deeply believes that everyone has the potential to make their dreams a reality, and Pinegate Road helps people do just that. Fast forward to today, Kelsey leads a 6-figure+ virtual design agency, and is at the point where she has complete freedom to create her own schedule (aka: currently working about 10h work weeks so she can be home with her little fam most of the time). She wants this freedom for you too! She has a passion for supporting online service providers, coaches, and educators to help them lead businesses and live lives that are fulfilling and profitable.   Here's what we covered on the episode: Heading  From Corporate America to Running a Design Studio In high school, Kelsey was artsy and knew she wanted to do something with that but also make money, so she decided to become a graphic designer and that's what she went to school for  How Kelsey started a lifestyle blog which turned into people asking her how to design their own websites which grew into a studio that she always had on the side After Kelsey graduated she went to work in Corporate America where she was designing stationery for Target, Walmart, and other national campaigns as a hand lettering artist  In 2016, Kelsey's business grew enough to where took her design studio full-time   There are only two companies in the country that hire hand lettering artists on salary, Hallmark and American Greetings; Kelsey interviewed with both while in grad school and went with American Greetings, which is why she moved and currently lives in Cleaveland, Ohio  While in grad school, Kelsey needed a creative outlet which is why she started her lifestyle blog where she was talking about boyfriends, design trends, and color palettes and shares she accidentally grew her business by putting her color palettes and designs on Pinterest  How Kelsey's blog business turned into her editing peoples blog headers, then it became full-on brands and websites and by the time she graduated grad school it had turned into a legit design studio where they had packages offering branding, full logo suites, building out the brands on people's collateral and then the website Kelsey shares that she has endometriosis and knew it was time to make the switch to full-time with her design studio when she was laid up in bed for several weeks at a time due to her health and says she was fully prepared to make the switch, she had savings, was making more money with it than her salary job and working fewer hours  How Kelsey's team reached out to share her story with me and asked about her being on the podcast, which was great because she was actually on my list of people to invite to have on the podcast  Productizing Services + Team Support  One of the biggest things that helped Kelsey get her business where she wanted it to be financially was productizing their services and having a very solid process for each of the things their clients would be going through   How Kelsey was hiring out team members to support those processes while she was working full-time because she didn't want her personal schedule and availability to dictate how fast the business could grow — this allowed her to grow and scale the business to where she was making more money than at her salary job   Kelsey shares that the first logo she sold was $300, and then when she started running her design studio, their logo package was $1,500 and the website was also $1,500, and shares she would also take hand lettering projects on the side How people were finding Kelsey on Pinterest for her hand lettering work and how she had ad agencies reach out to her about doing hand lettering for different national ad campaigns  When it comes to hiring your team, Kelseys says you should design your picture-perfect experience without you in the process, that way you know what roles are needed and if you have the time and want to take on all of those roles, that's fine, but you might not want to  The first person Kelsey hired was a developer because it was the most time-consuming thing that felt the least creative, the next task she handed off was project management so she could be the one doing the strategy, brand design, and web design while the build-out and client communication was being handled by her team As her business started to scale, Kelsey started to hire brand designers and web designers to come into the projects    How Kelsey got the entire agency to function without her in preparation for having her son in 2019 — she didn't want to step back into the design business after her pregnancy but loves being able to talk with clients, do the strategy and creative directing while having a team to support the doing   Kelsey's Future Plans + Coaching Business  Since Kelsey set her agency up to run without her time and doing, she started growing her education and coaching business because she is very passionate about supporting people and teaching other business providers how to scale in a sustainable way that uniquely works for their business  Kelsey explains that the agency gains clients from word of mouth, past clients who tell their friends, Pinterest, and site credits at the bottom of a website   For the last two years, Kelsey wasn't focused on growing the design business and instead was working to grow her coaching business but says this year she will be focusing on growing the design business  One thing Kelsey says is, there's no such thing as a website emergency, so in their contracts with clients they have firm processes and boundaries outlining what they are available for and what they are not available for going forward For websites, the agency offers 30 days of post-launch support but does not provide ongoing maintenance, instead, they tell clients how they can go do that, who they can go to, where they can find that  Kelsey explains the agency team's three then me rule, which means if anyone has a problem they have to look for 3 different solutions to the question or problem before they  go to Jannet, Kelsey's project manager, and if Jannet needs help, then she can ask Kelsey  What growth means for the design studio this year, who Kelsey is hiring, and the templates they will be selling  The story of Kelsey's horrific first year going full-time in her design business Kelsey tells us about The Aligned Business™ Academy, her coaching business that helps people create sustainable six-figure years that they can have for the rest of their business lives while having freedom in their life, and The Aligned Business™ Mastermind for people wanting to scale to seven-figures   How Kelsey developed and scaled her coaching business from the start to what it is today  Kelsey talks about emotional boundaries she's had to set in her business how she is always trying to find ways to optimize and live a more aligned life  Check out Kelsey's Freebie, 25 profitable offerings for service-based businesses  To find out more, head over to Pinegate Road.com,
