The Prosperous Empath® Podcast

As empaths, business planning can often feel like the last thing that we want to do. It can be hard to be strategic and set KPIs that are in alignment with our mission, vision, and values. If you've been here, today's episode is for you! I'm joined by Kiva Slade, the owner and founder of The 516 Collaborative, specializing in providing comprehensive support to small business owners at the intersection of data and operations. I've known Kiva for a while and it's been so fun to see her transformation as she has expanded her business offerings. Our conversation reminds me of the importance of mission-oriented goals and benchmarks, how the personal affects the professional, and so much more. I know you'll enjoy this episode!

Topics Discussed:

• Why Kiva decided to shift her service offerings the past couple of years and what this process has looked like for her
• How Kiva teaches her clients, especially women, to think bigger and have a broader impact without stretching themselves too much
• The reminder that so much of what happens in our personal life impacts our professional life and how Kiva strategically puts this into practice
• Creating a strategic business plan as an empath that follows your mission, vision, and values
• How Kiva helps her clients develop mission-oriented KPIs
• The importance of enjoying the current season of our business and how it's preparing us for what's to come

I have never had a male identifying guest on the podcast who identifies as a highly sensitive person (HSP). But would you believe there are 1 billion highly sensitive men in the world? Knowing this, I'm absolutely thrilled to have Josh Speraneo on the podcast today. Josh is a certified Master Life Coach on a mission to change the way the world views high sensitivity. We talk about how he coaches his clients, many of whom are empaths and HSPs, to reclaim their identity and rewrite their self worth story. I think you'll deeply enjoy this conversation!

Topics discussed in the full episode:

• Josh's early experiences as an HSP as a boy in middle school and how this started to manifest itself as an adult
• How the educational system is not designed for empaths and highly sensitives
• Josh's approach to coaching HSPs to help them reclaim their identity and rewrite their self worth story
• Actions that you can take to fill up your self worth account and why we should focus more on compassion
• How Josh has seen the specific struggles that men face as empaths and HSPs and how he helps heal them from trauma surrounding it

This week I thought it would be fun to replay one of the most downloaded episodes of the podcast - the very first episode of the show! If you haven't listened to it, enjoy! If you have, I encourage you to listen through again for a refresher on the 4 things that will help you to achieve success as a prosperous empath.

[Original show notes] Welcome to our very first episode of The Prosperous Empath Podcast. I am so excited to be here with you today, and a little unnerved too, if I'm being honest. As an empath, introvert and highly sensitive person, I am much more comfortable on the listening end of a conversation, getting to be the one who asks questions and offers insights and reflections. However, I've had countless clients tell me over the years that I needed to start a podcast, and not only does the timing feel right, but auspicious. More on that in the episode! Also, on the inaugural episode of the show, I thought I would share the four structures that I believe every prosperous empath must have to achieve the success they are craving. I'm so happy and honored that you're here, and with that, let's go!

If you're an ambitious empath, you probably feel the misalignment of hustle culture marketing almost daily. I know this was a huge problem for me early on in my business before I really gave myself permission to do things my way. With that being said, I'm so excited to have Sarah Santacrose on the show today. Sarah is the author of Marketing Like We're Human, and it's her mission to show how we, as prosperous empaths, can revolutionize the marketing industry.

You can WIN Sarah's book! We're partnering up to do a giveaway. All you have to do is leave a review of the show over on Apple Podcasts then shoot me a message on Instagram (@unboundedpotential) to let me know you've submitted it. I'll choose the winner on Monday, September 25th at 12noon ET and then mail you your book. Good luck!

There's a quote that I love: "The quality of our success in business is only as good as the quality of our relationships." This especially rings true for those of us who identify as ambitious empaths because we naturally prioritize the relationships with individuals in our lives. For me, so many of my clients have become friends and that is so true for today's guest on the podcast, Laura Kline-Taylor. Laura's been on the podcast before to chat about cycle tracking, but today we are sharing more about our relationship as client-coach, colleagues, and now co-coach. Laura works deeply in our newest offering, the Emerge Mastermind, so I wanted to have her on the show today so you can get to know her deeper and have a felt sense of how we can collaborate together. This episode will also help you to identify who you can strategically trust to offload some of your work to. I hope it resonates!

I'm back from my summer vacation and I'm feeling refreshed and inspired – I wasn't always the best at this, but I'm feeling this way because I was able to stay in integrity with myself and my boundaries in order to be truly off grid. This is a reflection of what I wish I had had when I was first starting out in business back in 2014. So in today's solo episode, I want to share with you five of the things that I wish I had had when I started in business. These things are included in our newest program offer, The Emerge Mastermind (which I am very excited to tell you more about!), but regardless of whether or not you're interested in the mastermind, I think you'll find this episode useful. At some point, you're likely going to hire a coach or consider your next business investment or consider a container or community that you want to invest in and belong to and I invite you to consider whether these things are present and which of these feels important for you to consider as you make your next business investment.

I felt so at home this week on the podcast with guest Fifi Mason, The Introvert's Impact Coach. She inspires quiet introverts to find their voice, get visible and confidently share their ideas with the world and this is evident throughout our conversation. Fifi's work centers around helping her clients overcome what she coined "self-silence" – something that we all struggle with and will feel familiar as you listen. She shares the importance of belonging and creating frameworks that support your vision, values, and ideas that you want to share with the world. We fit so much into this hour and I can't wait for you to tune in!

I know you may have read the title for this podcast episode – How to Travel the World for Free – and thought that it's impossible or maybe even feels a little like a scam? But I'm here today to tell you that it's totally possible, and it's something my husband and I do often! I'm so excited to have Zac Hood, founder of Travel Freely, on the show today to share how you can utilize credit card miles and/or points to not only travel for free, but uplevel how you travel, where you stay, and the activities you get to enjoy. Zac is also an introvert and shares how this has been a superpower for him as he's developed his website and app. You'll really enjoy this episode and will probably be ready to plan your next trip (for free)!
