The Modern CEO Podcast

If you've been in the entrepreneurship space for any length of time then you know how much comes at you on the topic of productivity.

There are so many articles and influencers and businesses that are all about teaching you their perfect methods of productivity. Chelsey Newmyer has a different approach. She is all about personalized productivity!

She knows that everyone is different and therefore productivity looks different for everyone. She had enough of the generic one size fits all advice that didn't really fit anyone at all. She created her business to help other entrepreneurs to be efficient rather than busy.

This conversation is filled with Chelsey's practical advice to get you on your path to personalized productivity.

In this Episode, we chat about:

• Personalized Productivity

• Why it's important to work on the right things at the right time

• Time Blocking and how most people get it wrong

• How self-care works with your productivity

🍾Welcome to the 100th episode of The Right on Time Podcast 🍾

It's a time to celebrate the journey we've embarked on together! And what a journey it has been!

Back in 2017, I launched this podcast with a vision of creating a platform for meaningful conversations. Over time, I've honed my communication skills and discovered a rhythm, deepening the connection with listeners. It's been an exhilarating feeling to witness the progress we've made on the Right on Time Podcast, and see the impact our episodes have had.

And I don't plan on stopping any time soon!

I am so excited to bring you more engaging conversations and insightful interviews with remarkable guests. We're constantly seeking out thought leaders, industry experts, and individuals with inspiring stories to share.

The opportunity to learn from diverse perspectives and uncover new insights excites me, and I can't wait to share them with you.

Thank you so much for being a part of this amazing journey - whether this is the first episode you've listened to or the 100th - I am so happy you're here!

In this episode:

• Life and Business update!

• Aligning your actions with your dreams.

• And how sometimes we get knocked off course.

"There has to be a way to communicate and to offer support. There also has to be a way to actually assign the tasks and assign the work. And usually, that's not the same place."

Kira La Forgia shares her passion for empowering women to recognize the support available to them, and the potential for their impact to expand through delegation and teamwork. Drawing from her own experience in small and online businesses, she has transformed her expertise into a unique approach called "people operations" within HR consulting. Rather than just focusing on legal matters, people operations take a holistic view of the business, amplifying its effectiveness.

Whatever stage of business you are at, Kira has some amazing insight that you can apply to your business now.

In this Episode, we chat about:

• What do before you hire your team (or go back and do if you skipped this step)

• When "flexibility" can be a bad thing for a team

• How Kira threw meeting agendas out the window and what she does instead

• The Ai Kira and her team use to capture meeting notes and action items in meetings

• Pitfalls in virtual working and how to set your virtual team up for success

Business Brilliant by Louis Schiff

Erin Marcus used to call herself The World's Number 1 pinball, constantly bouncing around, trying to score points and trying to avoid falling into the void. She used to take pride in her ability to thrive in the chaos.

Then she learned that this was actually the problem, not the solution. She also noticed that this does seem to be the human default; to be stuck in this place of reaction.

Erin's mission is to show people that it does not have to be that way. You can (and need) to take charge of your life and your business. Erin shares her personal experience of transitioning from being that pinball with little focus (and little money) to building the multi-six-figure business she has now.

Erin has such an infectious, bubbly personality that will have you smiling right along with her. This conversation was so good and so inspirational. I can't wait to hear what you think!

In this Episode, we chat about:

• The human default and how we are being reprogrammed

• How to be proactive of your life (and business)

• The mindset difference between the corporate world and the entrepreneurial world

• Instatactics - what they are and why they probably won't work for you (yet)

• Erin's unique pricing strategy

Morning routines are all the rage these days. Whether it's the 5-9 before the 9-5 routines that have been going viral on Tiktok or the ever popular google searches for "how to be a morning person" or "how to force yourself to wake up early" or "how to wake up early, even if you're not a morning person".

Samantha and Meagan, two incredible women that I get to work with over at my company, Three Boudoir, challenged themselves to take on morning routines inspired by millionaires. They added in steps such as skincare, exercising, journaling, and meditation while putting off work related tasks until their typical clock-in time. This was all in an effort to be more productive, but that's not necessarily what the results were.

You may actually be shocked by what Samantha and Meagan concluded during this challenge.

In this Episode, we chat about:

• Are the benefits of waking up so early in the morning worth all the hype

• Seasonality of early wakeups

• If waking up earlier increases productivity, efficiency, and joy

• The scientific research that highlights the benefits of being a night owl

When by Daniel Pink

Radical results require radical change. What are you willing to do to get what you want?

Ange Matthews created the life she has by investing. Investing can feel scary especially when you are just starting out, which is why I love Ange's origin story.

I'm sure you can relate to this in some way. Ange was working 12 hours a day and not being paid for her time all while, as a recruiter, cutting checks that were much bigger than her own. She turned down a job at Goldman Sachs and began questioning if she made the right decision. One day, at her desk, while surrounded by the work she needed to be doing she googled "How to become rich".

She found that all the advice was either learn to invest or become an entrepreneur, ideally both. AND don't start investing until you're debt free.

That last piece of advice didn't sit well with Ange. She said that even if she paid off her debt, she'd still be at $0.00. Her debt was her past. What was she going to do in the present to make her future better? She did not want to stay at job just because the need for an income made it necessary. She didn't want to have to live like that. As she said, it usually only takes one bad relationship to change your entire life. The relationship with her not-so-great job was the catalyst for major change in her life.

Ange began with no investment knowledge, and a fractured relationship with money that came from a place of lack. But boy did she change her story! Wait to you hear about her investment journey. Plus, you are going to love her heart - She makes money very joyful.

In this Episode, we chat about:

• What to invest in for beginners

• Should you invest when you have debt?

• Overcoming fears in investing

• Why Ange doesn't use social media?!

The Happy Investor Method

This conversation was incredible. Jenn talks us through personal safety (and many other types of safety) and how we are responsible (and able) to enhance our safety for ourselves. We also dive into what got her to this point - it all started on 9/11 with fear and uncertainty entering Jenn's life quickly and at full force. It was what came after that made the difference. Jenn journeyed through life saying yes to many different opportunities and running her own business.

Jenn is a mentor, coach, and public speaker on a mission to help women feel strong, safe, and powerful from the streets to the boardroom. In her book, The Art of Badassery: Unleash Your Mojo with Wisdom of the Dojo, Jenn uses the dojo as a metaphor for life. She teaches readers "how to flex their mental muscle, how to rise above fears, and how to turn setbacks into superpowers.

In this Episode, we chat about:

• How your subconscious might be blocking you from getting what you want (and what to do about that!!)

• The power of feeling SAFE (and how to build that feeling when things are uncertain)

• The ultimate "bounceback" strategy - i.e., what to do when things are not going your way

• How Jenn went from managing an event space to speaking on stages and keeping women safe around the world.

Heartbeat

It takes courage to build a business you believe in ... and not just do what everyone else is doing

Memberships 90% are lurking (just observing what is going on), 9% are moderate engagers, and 1% or less are super engagers. This stat can actually cause membership owners to want to do more and more to get more engagement.

Memberships actually don't need to take that much time to love up and give value to. Lisa Pricinic is all about creating and running a money-making membership with 15 hours (or less) of work per week! Lisa's mission is to help business owners build a business helps them do more of the work they do while expanding, and growing to live out their dream.

Memberships really come down to a few things: differentiation, good structure, profitable pricing, and choosing the right marketing strategy.

Lisa is talking us through it all. We even have a bit of a live case study about my own membership program: Stay Goaldone.

In this episode, we chat about:

• Members in a membership are lurking (and that is not a bad thing) - this shocked me!

• Structure your Membership Effectively

• Price Your Membership Correctly

• The pros and cons of always open, limited evergreen, and live launching

"Trust your gut."

It's been a popular saying for years, but how often do you actually follow that advice?

Your intuition is a powerful guide that helps you tune in to the decisions in your life that align with your most authentic self.

In this episode of the Right on Time podcast, my guest Abi Levine shares how to utilize the power of your intuition to help you manifest what you want to bring into your life.

Abi is an expert in money mindset and manifestation, with her clients earning 1 billion dollars (!!) in revenue over the last 3 years.

When excuses are preventing you from moving forward and finding new levels of success in your business, it's time to try a new approach. Abi's approach blends Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), Reiki, Hypnosis and other healing modalities and her clients have had incredible success when working with her.

If you're asking yourself if you have a purpose, the answer is: yes! And Abi is able to help you determine exactly what it is.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The common excuses that are holding you back

• How to connect with your intuition

• Active vs. passive manifestation

• Aligning your heart and mind to achieve big transformations in your life

• Abi's signature Wealth Alchemy formula

If you're interested in becoming a magnet for growth, success and impact in your business and your life, this is an episode you'll want to hear.
