Introduction to the podcast & what I'll be covering
How the topics are going to help you run your business AND live your dream life on your own terms. What that means is we are going to deep dive into topics like:
- How to organize and structure your business in a way that fits your unique learning and organizational style. As you’ll soon find out I’m a not-so-secret organization freak. And that extends to all aspects of my business and life. I’ll be sharing some of the easy strategies that have worked for me and that have worked for my clinnents.
- And we’ll explore strategies to prevent burnout and to take back control of your business so that it’s finally supporting your dream life, instead of sucking up all your time and energy. So your life can be more than just ordering take out and flopping on the couch in front of Netflix at the end of the day. You were created for more!
- We’ll also look at strategies for turning off the recording that’s playing in your head saying that there’s only one way to run a successful business. You are unique. Your business is unique. Therefore how your run your business should be unique too.There’s no one right way to reach success.
- We’ll also look at ways to give yourself permission to become the expert in your business and how you can start running it the way that works best for you and the goals of your business. Again - there’s no one-size-fits-all method for running a successful business.
- To that same end we are going to spend time exploring what success really means to you and how you can cultivate it.
You started your business to have more freedom. To create something that mattered that would have a lasting impact. That allow you to live your best and dreamiest life possible. And honestly, running your own business is hard. There’s always more to learn and more to do. But there are ways to set yourself up so you can have it all - a successful business and a life you love. And I want to help you get there!

YOUR Permission Slip:

On every episode I’m going to give you a little permission slip that I want you to put into action. This is to help you start shifting your mindset and allowing yourself to be the expert. To fully be in charge of your business and life.

Your first permission slip is to let yourself believe that that you can have it all. That is possible to run a successful business and live a life you love.

Throughout the day, repeat this permission slip to yourself - either aloud or silently in your head.

Here's the permission slip for you to download and put in a prominent spot -- maybe printed out and taped to the edge of your computer screen, or saved as your cell phone wall paper or lock screen -- as a reminder throughout the day that it's okay to believe in what you truly want. And it's okay to believe in your own success.

Feel free to share this on social media too. All I ask is that you only use it for personal use and that you tag @chelseabfoster in the post.

If we aren't already friends, I'd love to get to know you! The absolute best place to do that is on Instagram. I hang out there pretty much all day (#instagramaddict). I'm @chelseabfoster. And be sure to subscribe to the podcast - now available on iTunes and Google Play.
