  • 105: Why Your Habits Aren't Sticking

    In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most powerful drivers of change: identity.

    If you’ve ever found yourself wanting different results like better health, stronger habits, more success in business ... but struggling to actually follow through, this episode will shift the way you think about growth.

    I’m sharing a personal story from a recent retreat and unpacking how the identities we carry ... from our family, culture, and life experiences ... quietly shape our actions every single day. From being an Iowa farm girl to embracing champion DNA, brain health, and the role of a coach’s wife, I walk you through how identity has influenced the way I show up in my health, marriage, leadership, and business.

    We also talk about the four practical steps to shifting your identity so your actions start aligning naturally with the life you want to create.

    If you’re ready to release old labels, step into a new version of yourself, and build habits that actually stick, this episode is for you.

    Because the truth is: when your identity changes, everything else follows.

  • EP 104: 7 Communication Styles That Shape Your Leadership

    In this special episode of All Things Excellence, you’re getting a peak into our Leadership Book Club Zooms.

    This is a live excerpt from our February call where we discussed Chapter 3 of Wealthy & Well-Known ... diving into identity, reputation, and how what you believe about yourself shapes your leadership and results.

    From there, I unpacked the Seven Frequencies of Communication by Erwin McManus [motivator, challenger, commander, healer, professor, seer, and maven] and how your dominant communication style impacts your influence, emotional intelligence, and the way you show up in business and relationships.

    If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to be in the room with us ... this is it!

    For all my notetakers ... here's the framework I use to go over each style

    1. Attributes
    2. Themes
    3. Followers
    4. Point of View
    5. Drive
    6. Marker
    7. Dynamic
    8. High Need
    9. Basic Need
    10. Culture Created
    11. Shadow Behavior

  • EP 103: House Managers | The Secret Weapon for High-Capacity Women

    In this episode, I sit down with Brenda Noon Schmidt who helps entrepreneurs 10x their life through delegation and time hacking.

    We get into:

    • What a house manager actually is (because most people don’t even know)
    • Why “doing it all” is not the flex we think it is
    • Loop openers vs. loop closers (this part rocked me)
    • Time, bandwidth, and why burnout feels normal right now
    • Rebuilding the village we were never meant to live without

    It’s about capacity.

    It’s about energy.

    It’s about creating space to lead well in your business and in your home.

  • EP 102: Off the Record & In the Middle of It with Chelsey & Robyn

    Welcome to Season 3 of All Things Excellence and the first of our monthly series with Robyn Moore, Marketing Igniter! Join us every second Wednesday of the month for Off the Record and In the Middle of It. We’re talking about what it really takes to lead, build, and stay aligned when you’re in the thick of life.

    In this kickoff episode, we go off the record on what’s shifting right now in leadership and business, we dive into behind-the-scenes of growth in our marriage, bandwidth, and why “quality time” is not the same as just being in the same room.

    And because Robyn is Robyn, we’re also talking marketing strategy with zero fluff: the difference between marketing vs. sales, why so many business owners burn out trying to “figure out social media,” and how you can build a waitlist through public speaking, referrals, alignment, and doing the thing you’re accidentally the best at. If you’re a woman in leadership, a CEO, a coach, or a business owner who wants to grow sustainably without selling your soul to the algorithm ... we think you'll enjoy this one!

  • EP 101: When 90% Isn’t Enough

    Season three is here and this episode is full of all the lessons that have been dropping during our break!

    I’m sharing what surfaced when our schedule started getting too full, the need for white space, the grief and clarity that came with hitting 100 podcast episodes, and the realization that not every goal is meant to come with us into the next season.

    We talk leadership, alignment, effort, and why giving 90% is often a sign that something has shifted. I share how I’ve been refining my offers, deepening my Enneagram work, and learning powerful lessons about excellence, commitment, and belief ... both in business and on the soccer field.

    Season three is about shorter, more potent conversations, women founders in the thick of it, and coming along on my pursuit for my most peaceful, profitable, powerful, and aligned year yet!

  • EP 100: 8 Lessons & 100 Episodes | Alignment, Identity and Excellence

    One year and 100 episodes

    In this milestone episode of All Things Excellence, I'm diving into what 100 podcast episodes in one year taught me as a leader, business owner, wife, and woman who refuses to subscribe to the always busy burnout culture.

    I’m sharing the 8 biggest lessons this year pulled out of me. From slowing down to releasing goals I no longer wanted and choosing peace.

    This episode is part reflection, part permission slip, and part reminder that our journey doesn’t have to be loud, frantic, or performative to be powerful.

    We’re closing out Season Two with this conversation and taking a short siesta before Season Three begins February 4th.

    Thank you for being here. Thank you for growing with me the past 52 weeks.

    Here’s to the next era where we become more peaceful, more profitable, and more aligned than ever!

  • EP 99: Ditching Busy in Leadership and Life

    Holy freaking episode 99. Almost one year. And if there’s one thing I know after this last season, it’s this ... being in the "state of busy" isn't a good thing.

    In this episode of All Things Excellence, we’re talking about what it really looks like to ditch the low-frequency busy vibes and create a slower, more intentional year without losing your ambition, your hustle, or your excellence. This conversation is for women in leadership and business who are done living in the energy of rush and ready to lead their lives with clarity and alignment.

    I’m breaking down the four pillars I use with my clients to eliminate busy and increase intention: mindset, core values, stretch goals, and practical tools that actually support your real life. We’re talking self-trust over analyzation paralyzation, delegation over burnout, and why a confused mind does nothing.

    If you’ve re-entered the year feeling scattered or overwhelmed, this episode will help you slow down for a hot moment to get clear on what matters most, and choose intention over chaos ... because the hottest thing a woman can wear in 2026 is peace!

  • EP 98: 11 Business & Leadership Lessons for Women

    In today’s conversation, I’m sharing 11 leadership and business lessons that were forged in the season of building my last successful business and reinforced daily through coaching women in leadership and entrepreneurship.

    These are the truths I find myself repeating nonstop with my clients: women who are established, women who are just getting started, and women who are doing a whole lot right but still feel stretched thin.

    This episode is equal parts leadership coaching, mindset recalibration, and real-life storytelling. From hiring my first assistant to navigating seasons of growth, plateaus, and pivots.

    If you’re a woman in leadership or business who wants to grow without burning out, lead without gripping too tightly, and build with clarity instead of chaos—this one will meet you right where you are.

  • EP 97: Resetting for Expansion with Robyn Moore

    In this episode of All Things Excellence, we pull back the curtain on Robyn Moore’s annual reset process as a mom, a wife, and a business owner. Robyn breaks down how she does a holistic life audit for intentional alignment.

    We also get into the real secret sauce: getting away for two full nights of uninterrupted sleep, going device-free, and letting the noise die down long enough to hear your own thoughts again. Robyn shares her word for 2026 — Expansion — and what it looks like to take up space in your voice, your choices, your impact, and your joy… without shrinking, performing, or borrowing someone else’s blueprint.

    If you’re craving clarity, stronger boundaries, and a reset that actually changes how you live and lead — this one’s for you!

  • EP 96: Systems, Shabbat, and Sustainable Success with Becky Heller

    We’re starting the year strong with, Becky Heller, CEO + Founder of Becky Heller Co.

    In this episode, we talk about three big things. First, Becky’s business journey — and why being “all over the place” is often God building the exact skill set you need. From retail and real estate to virtual assistance and systems, Becky has always been the chaos coordinator… and now she helps business owners simplify, automate, and scale with intention.

    Next, we dive into the New Year reset — how she reflects, sets goals without tying them to her worth, and uses quarterly resets and rhythms to build a business and life she actually loves.

    And finally, the reason I really wanted her on: Shabbat. We break down what it is, how her and her husband practice it and how a weekly hard stop Sabbath rhythm has transformed her marriage, her business, and her peace. This is all about intentional living, hustle without burnout, and learning how to truly rest.

    If you’ve been craving a reset, better rhythms, and permission to slow down without losing momentum this episode is for you!

About All Things Excellence

From the publisher's feed

Welcome to All Things Excellence by Chelsey DeBruin-Colbert, the podcast dedicated to exploring what drives us to step into greatness, unlock our genius, and sometimes stumble along the way. For over 30 years, I’ve been on a journey of personal growth, digging deep into the “why” behind our actions. Through books, conferences, mentors, and coaching women in sales and leadership, I’ve learned that excellence isn’t just about strategies—it’s about the stories, traumas, and transformative moments that shape who we are.
