That Big CEO Energy

“You should be an advocate for yourself for your health, because at the end of the day, you want to feel confident in the health decision that you had to make.”- Shannon

We, as business owners, sometimes have a hard time admitting when our mental health needs a barometer check. We often drive ourselves around with the check engine light on and don’t address the issue because to be frank, we don’t even know where to begin.

And maybe, we don’t even know IF we have a problem worth addressing but what we do know is that our work, our businesses, are being affected because we end up being paralyzed by our debilitating thoughts.

I thought it was such a wonderful time to bring Shannon from You Got This-The Journey to talk about her mental health journey and how now she is our deepest advocate and warrior for creating the life we all deserve by working with us one on one through our mental health journey so we can become the business owner, side hustler, or full time corporate person we have always wanted to be.

In this very raw episode, Shannon talks about:

• How she determined she has anxiety 
• How she worked through it to get to the other side and what it takes to keep your mental health- healthy.
• How she can help you facing the same struggles

“I’ve got to build my own building so I can have my own ceiling.”- Monica 

You can’t scroll your Instagram or Facebook feed for more than a minute without running into an entrepreneur posting about becoming their own boss, and external factors you need to do that too!

What IS being an entrepreneur really like?? And should you take the plunge?

My guest for this episode, serial entrepreneur Monica Allen, is here to spill the beans on exactly what the journey of transitioning out of corporate to running multiple businesses as a mom and wife really means.

Sounds great, right? But there’s more — she and her husband kept the doors open, even in the midst of Covid and still came out swingin’!

Is the hype of running a business ever actually justified?

And should you just start willy nilly? What about hiring employees? Should you be like your previous boss to get things done?

“I just need to figure out a better way to manage it. And I need to figure out how to get things off of my plate so I can focus on the strategy, the big moves, the big place.”- says Monica, “So that's where I am this year is really focusing on what resources do I need to allow me and my husband to make the big moves, the big place.”

In this episode, Monica shares how to build your business, how to get nitty gritty when crisis strikes, how to not be THAT manager and how to develop your authentic brand in the midst of being a serial entrepreneur!

When you hear the words: imposter syndrome, what do you think about? Do you instantly raise your hand and say “that’s me”? Do you know what you are saying when you say that you have imposter syndrome OR is it just a lack of knowledge about yourself and the things you need to retrain your mind and skillset on?

In today’s episode, we talk about some of those things that can often mistakenly show up as imposter syndrome and we walk together to understand how you can overcome those barriers. To me, imposter syndrome is a blanket statement that we often like to you when we decide we don’t want to do the inner work of understanding the situations before us and why we arrived with our thoughts.

Tune in to listen to how you can break these barriers and get tangible action items putting you in a positive head space so YOU can show up with BIG CEO energy.

If someone were to ask you “When did you know it was time to leave a job?” What would you say? What are some things that you can think of as to WHY you would leave a job?

If you are contemplating leaving corporate all together or just making a job change, you will want to listen to this episode. This episode we talk all about the real and honest reasons why you should leave a position and some key things to think about when you start getting a stir that it is time. 

Gathering data and reflecting daily on where you are and where you see yourself helps you to understand when you may be outgrowing a position or outgrowing working for someone else all together.

Walk with me as we discover where you are and what you can do to understand if it is time for you to leave your job or not.

Hustle culture is the kind of callous on the bottom of your heel that just won’t go away unless you keep working at it. 

It is the point where instead of providing excitement and positivity, it leaves you with burnout, broke relationships and a bad taste of the reason why you started your business in the first place.

Friends, this episode is powerful. Tune in to learn about how I was sucked into hustle culture and ways to expel it from your life.

‌”Your ideal client is not the one you are servicing. The ideal number of clients is the number of clients you can serve powerfully.”

Creating clear expectations and goals is crucial to the success of your business, your mental health and the private life that you lead.

• Why boundaries are important
• How to manage your calendar and relationships to hold steadfast to your boundaries

I really enjoyed sharing my experiences and empowering you to lead the life you love because YOU ARE WORTH IT! You are worth setting boundaries and asking for the things you need to be successful. Even if it means saying no more than you say yes.
