93: Align for MORE: Soulful Client Onboarding

If you've been told the only way to grow your business is to hustle harder, post more, and chase every lead — this episode is the antidote. Ashley sits down with Nathalie Ekobo, a French-born business coach who blends 25 years of business strategy with energy work, neuroscience, and spirituality to help women entrepreneurs build businesses that feel as good as they perform. No grind. No guru-on-Instagram performance. Just clients who feel called in instead of chased down. Here's what we get into: Why "fixing yourself" is the wrong starting point — and the structural shift that actually moves the needle (jump into creating first, then deal with the blocks) The difference between 3D problem-solving and creating from source — and why most entrepreneurs are stuck running their business from the wrong one A real-time exercise to feel the shift from "incomplete and prickly" to "whole and complete" — try it while you listen Why desperation repels clients (Nathalie's "guy in the bar" analogy is going to stick with you) The "double bubble" practice — how looking at your worst-case scenario actually helps you relax into the best-case one The seven generations of inherited survival mode showing up in your business right now — and what to do about it Inspired action, decoded: not just "a thought you're called to do," but a specific practice you can apply this week to magnetize the right clients For the OBM who's tired of pushing, this one is going to land. If you've got a crystal on the desk or a card pulled this morning — you're going to feel right at home. Find Nathalie: Text "alchemy" + your full name and best email to +1-602-881-3040 (WhatsApp preferred) to grab her free Alchemy Creation Code — a 7-step process for creating with more ease.

92: Own Your Role: How OBMs Can Show Up Like a Leader with Gwen Bortner

Most OBMs think their job is to take things off the CEO's plate. Gwen Bortner — business advisor with 40+ years of working alongside women entrepreneurs — would push back on that. Your job is bigger. In this episode, Ashley sits down with Gwen (founder of Everyday Effectiveness and co-host of The Business You Really Want) to unpack what it actually looks like to show up as a leader inside your client's business. Not a task manager. A thought partner with a seat at the table. Here's what we get into: Why your most valuable strategic contribution isn't more ideas — it's helping your visionary CEO sift through the ones she already has and stay focused on the path she said she wanted How to ask the hard questions — "Did we switch paths on purpose, or did we get distracted?" — without them landing as criticism (Gwen's trick: talk about the issue, not the person) The real definition of accountability — and why most clients say they want it until they actually have it What to do when your CEO keeps missing the same deliverable — and why redesigning the work beats nagging her every week Why "strategy mode" and "task mode" need to be two separate hats, and how trying to wear both at once dilutes both Gwen's SOP philosophy: document the 20% that gets you 80% of the way there, never duplicate information across systems, and stop writing instructions for things the right hire should already know This one is full of language you can take straight into your next client conversation.
