Let's Get Bossy Megan Gillespie

In today's episode, we're debunking the "Girl Boss" and exploring what it means to embrace genuine leadership and boundaries in your life and business.

Key Points From This Epsiode:


Owning Your Leadership Role: Step into your CEO role by taking ownership of your schedule, priorities, and boundaries. Define the kind of leader you want to be without conforming to outdated stereotypes.


Reclaiming Your Time: Evaluate where you're investing your time and energy. You have the authority to prioritize tasks that align with your goals and values.


Sustainability Over Busyness: Recognize what feels sustainable for you in your current season. Not every idea needs immediate action. Implement a system to revisit and execute ideas when the time is right.



By implementing these strategies, you'll regain control and authenticity in your business journey. Remember to stay true to yourself and your vision—authenticity is key to real success. Stay empowered and unboss the 'Girl Boss' mentality. Until next time, stay bossy!

Welcome back to the podcast! It's been a long-awaited return, and I'm thrilled to be back behind the mic... with a NEW NAME! We took a hiatus last October, not just for this show but for a complete business overhaul where I paused everything that wasn't essential. This break was necessary because my business took a major pivot in May 2023 with the creation of the Olympia Boss Society, a local networking community. Now that we are back, and rebranded, I'm excited to catch you up on what we've been up to BTS!

Key Takeaways From This Episode:


How long form content can simplify your business plan.
Why we shifted the branding focus to serve all women entrepreneurs with limited time.
Embracing the idea that doing less can lead to more significant growth.
The importance of self-trust and flexibility in business evolution.

I'm still figuring things out every day, practicing self-trust, and embracing flexibility. This discovery phase has been surprisingly liberating. Despite facing tough personal challenges in Q1, downsizing my workload allowed me to navigate those hurdles while achieving my most financially successful quarter yet.

Join me on this journey of self-trust and business evolution. Follow along as I share my experiences, lessons, and the new way of doing things. Expect weekly episodes—some solo, some with guests—as we dive into spicy topics and life-proof our businesses together.

Stay tuned for exciting updates on my Instagram, new resources, speaking engagements, mentorship opportunities, and the growth of Olympia Boss Society—all aligned with my vision of success. It feels incredible to be back, and I can't wait to continue this conversation with you.

Last week we talked about why social media isn’t a great strategy for your business… but, I know many of you are still relying on good ol’ IG. So this week, we are going to talk about how you can leverage social media to grow your email list. Because social media does have its time and place in the marketing puzzle. It just isn’t the biggest piece. 
I was teaching an email marketing class recently and I talked about how your email list is your home base. And everything you do gives access to an avenue that will take your person back to that home base. So, you go to a networking event - goal is to get someone to come into your world (aka your homebase… aka you email list). You go on a podcast or post in a facebook group, or any other visibility strategy to get more eyes on you.. same goal. Get the person into your world… So if you flip how you use social media from your main marketing platform to another avenue that gets people to your homebase, you’ve cracked the code as far as I’m concerned. 
So how do you start doing this? In this episode I break down my tried and true strategy to use social media to grow your email list.

Having kids and being an entrepreneur is not for the faint of heart. And one of the hardest times that we face is the transition back to school. Whether it is your first time having a kid in school, or it happens every year… The transition is tough! In this episode I am joined by two fellow moms of kindergartners and entrepreneurs, and we have a candid conversation about how the transition has gone. This is a great one if you’re feeling alone in this season and need a boost in motivation, tips to help make things smoother, and just some candid girl talk!

It’s spooky season.. And I’ve got a little ghost story to share today… Some of you might remember October of 2021. We were all going about our mornings, enjoying the cup of coffee, doing the routines and then hop on to IG (as we do) to scroll for “inspiration” and it wasn’t loading. 

You thought it was just your phone being annoying so you go onto your other platforms and check back a while later. Still nothing. Another hour goes by… still nothing. You start to panic. Maybe even sweat a little because, if you were like me, you had a whole launch planned that day and it was mostly going down through IG. 

Next thing you know, everyone in the digital world is talking about how their IG is down too. Panic posts on FB asking “is this just me”? 

Hours go by and collectively the digital marketing and online business world starts to freak out because IG has never been down this long.. And if IG is down… HOW are we even operating our businesses? 

Ladies… this is a TRUE STORY! You scared yet? 

This was the resurrection of email marketing, and if you still aren't on board... you should be SCARED!

This episode will send chills down your spine and leave you with action steps to save yourself (and your business) today!
