All Things Excellence

In this episode of All Things Excellence, I’m sharing how I found my golden thread—the unique connection that ties together ALLLLLL my passions, skills, and dreams I’ve carried for years into one aligned vision. I’ll walk you through how I’ve learned to embrace the “both/and,” trust divine timing, and weave everything I love—from my coaching to my podcast, courses, and future dreams—into a cohesive brand and life I’m obsessed with. If you’re a multi-passionate, growth-minded woman ready to stop feeling scattered and start feeling anchored in your purpose, this conversation will show you how it all fits together.

Welcome back to another episode of UNSCRIPTED! Where I invite you inside real, in-the-moment, happening-right-now clarity coaching conversations—with full permission and no pressure to be “on.” Just real talk, real transformation.

In this episode of Unscripted, you’ll get a front-row seat to an anonymous live clarity coaching session that’s as relatable as it is eye-opening. My guest—an Iowa wife, mom, and corporate professional—loves her work in accounting but feels the pull toward building a life with more time freedom, flexibility, and alignment with her family’s values. Together, we unpack her Enneagram type, Top 5 Gallup strengths, Human Design, and explore the crossroads between her current career, her side business, and the dream of starting her own bookkeeping business.

From navigating marriage dynamics and love languages to weighing security vs. possibility, this conversation is packed with “aha” moments for anyone who’s ever wondered, How do I actually get from where I am to the life I really want? You’ll hear the real-time process of mapping out a 3-year vision, breaking it down into doable steps, and giving yourself permission to go after it—without burning it all down overnight.

If you’ve been feeling the overwhelm and you can’t catch your breath or figure out what you need to do next, this episode is for you. Over the past 10 days, almost every single client I’ve coached has been saying the same thing—I’m so overwhelmed, I don’t even know where to start.

In this quick but potent episode, I’m sharing the exact six steps I use and have been teaching for years. They will help you STOP the overwhelm and get back to kicking butt & taking names. I’ll walk you through my brain dump method, how to get the right kind of support without the advice overload, and how to pull everything off your plate to see what actually deserves to stay.

We’ll also talk about creating a realistic weekly plan that reflects your actual priorities (and time), and how to reset boundaries with your family, friends, and clients so they take your time seriously.

You don’t have to keep pushing through the chaos. These six steps will help you clear your head, reclaim your time, and get back to living (and leading) with clarity, purpose, and ease.

With kids we know its not what's taught ... but what is caught ... and what they are catching from as early as 3 years old around money will create the foundation of their relationship with it for life.

In this episode, I sit down with financial educator and former school district leader Emily Holthaus, founder of Raising Little Millionaires, to unpack how we can teach kids as young as three years old the lifelong skills of financial literacy, delayed gratification, and values-based money habits—no finance degree required.

Whether you're a mom, auntie, teacher, or just someone who wants to clean up your own money mindset while breaking generational cycles, this episode is full of aha moments, grace-filled permission slips, and tangible tools to start today.

We talk about:

• The Four Jar Method that teaches budgeting basics to littles
• Why "split it before you spend it" is a great habit to adopt
• How to navigate over-gifting grandparents, meltdowns in the toy isle, and social media pressure
• The surprising reason delayed gratification is a skill, not a personality trait
• How to raise kids who live a choice-filled life—even IF your own finances are still a work in progress

From hilarious real-life stories to eye-opening education insights, this one will have you saying "me too" more than once. Grab your coffee, your notes app, and maybe a set of jars—because you're going to want to start this today.

After a six-week sabbatical from the mic (and basically everything), I'm back and full of fresh clarity ... ready to walk you through the eight things I did to reset, realign, and radically elevate my energy.

In this season opener, I’m sharing the messy, beautiful, unapologetic pause I took this summer — from chasing toddlers at a truck show in Iowa, to doing my own Alignment Edit, to releasing the pressure to do all the things and just be. I open up about the tiny moments that sparked big revelations, the tough convos I finally had, and how letting God take care of me led to my highest income month of the year (while doing WAY less).

This episode is part confessional, part coaching, and all honest raw heart. If you're in a season where you’re craving clarity, rest, or a permission slip to break your own rules ... you're going to LOVE this one.

Time to take a deep breath ... buckle up ... and kick off Season 2.

Welcome to All Things Excellence — the podcast for women riding the hot mess express and crushing it ALL at the same time.

I'm your host, Chelsey DeBruin Colbert — clarity coach, business mentor, and your personal hype woman for living a life of purpose, alignment, and excellence.

If you’re craving raw conversations, big breakthroughs, and a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to go after the life your soul keeps whispering for you to live… you’re in the right spot.

In Season 2, we’re diving into three juicy themes:

1. My bold leap back into the Achiever Arena (yesssss girl, I’m chasing big, scary goals but in a SOUL-aligned way ... and I’m bringing you with me).
2. Unfiltered, Unscripted clarity coaching sessions with everyday women like you — ready for the next step but unsure where to start.
3. Behind the scenes stories from powerhouse founders building businesses I'm obsessed with — and learning how the heck they actually made it happen.

Grab your coffee and settle in for this season with All Things Excellence — it’s about time we made your NEXT chapter your BEST one yet.

Hey All Things Excellence fam—can you believe we’re at FIFTY?

This one’s equal parts celebration, confession, and pep-talk from your bff coach who finally learned how to rest on purpose.

What’s inside this milestone mic-drop

1. Why I’m hitting pause in July
2. The Iowa-farm-girl grind taught me cows still need fed—even when life falls apart. Here’s how I’m adjusting that mindset and giving myself a month-long sabbatical so I can show up with fresh fire in August.
3. The divine whisper that launched this show
4. A patio, a journal, and a holy-gut nudge. I walk you through the exact moment I decided a podcast was non-negotiable—and the tiny “next best steps” that made it real.
5. Hiring help that refuses to let you quit
6. Learn why finding people who keep you accountable is the secret sauce to finishing what you start.
7. From quiet to roar
8. How 50 episodes healed my voice after years of being shut down—and how you can reclaim yours without waiting for permission.
9. A permission slip you can screenshot
10. Mess up publicly, pivot loudly, celebrate yourself shamelessly, and trust God’s long game even when the path looks wild.

Listen if you’re craving…

1. Proof that rest can multiply results, not stall them.
2. A loving shove to chase that whisper you’ve been ignoring.
3. Real-life stories (fumbles included) from a clarity coach who practices what she preaches.

Quick housekeeping

1. Season Two drops Friday, August 1—new guests, deeper conversations, same excellence-driven heart.
2. In the meantime, binge past episodes, share your favorites with a friend, and leave a review so more women can join the fam.

Thank you for every listen, DM, review, and “heck yes” you’ve sent my way. Now go squeeze every last drop of summer juice, y’all—we’ll pick this right back up in August.

In the finale of our Enneagram series I sit down with my friend Marcie Diaz, a true-blue Enneagram 9, to debunk every “nines-don't-care” myth you’ve ever heard and spotlight the quiet power they carry.

We talk about:

• Mistyping madness—how Marcie spent years wearing the Achiever (Type 3) before realizing her drive was fueled by safety, not applause.
• Why a Nine can win championships on the field yet freeze when you say, “We need to talk.”
• The “slow-mo superpower” no one gives Nines credit for—holding every perspective in the room without losing their own.
• Marriage with an Enneagram 8: using gentle presence to soften intensity.
• Practical ways to love the Nines in your life and Marcie’s permission slip for her fellow peacemakers.

In this episode of the EnneaSpring Series on All Things Excellence, we’re diving into the brilliance, intensity, and emotional depth of Enneagram Type 8—**and I couldn’t be more excited to do it with my friend and powerhouse coach, Chris Parker.

In these episodes, we’re not just talking about the Eight you read about in books. We’re unpacking what it feels like to live as an Eight—the fire, the protectiveness, the tenderness that hides beneath the strength. We talk about what it’s like to hold power and softness at the same time, why boundaries matter more than bravado, and how true leadership starts with truth-telling.

You'll hear the story of how Chris and I met in a mastermind (a moment I still call a “God-wink”), how a single tissue box told me everything I needed to know about her Eight energy, and the ways we both navigate marriage, motherhood, and mission with deep intentionality.

This series is for you if you’ve ever felt too much, held too much, or been misunderstood for your strength. It’s for the women who lead fiercely and love deeply—and are learning to do both with more clarity, trust, and sovereignty.
