    How to Ask for Money

    Your most requested episode is here: HOW TO ASK FOR MONEY! How do you make such a big, bold, audacious ask?! In today's ep, I'm breaking down why money is such an anxiety-inducing topic, and the different ways to ask for money, including asking for a raise, a family investment into your biz, a refund from an airline and more! PLUS, I spill the tea on the time I was in Australia and BROKE AF. I'm talking "living off a tax refund with maxed out credit cards and nannying for accommodation" broke. This experience taught me how feeling shame wasn't a luxury I could afford. What You'll Learn: Ancient anxiety: How THOUSANDS of years of money evolution hardwired financial insecurity into your DNAWhy It's So WEIRD to talk about money: The psychological mess of tying your net worth to your self-worth, plus cultural taboos that make salary talk feel like a federal crimeThe trust factor: Every financial transaction is a tiny negotiation of power, status, and "will this person screw me over?" - asking for money is about trustHow to ACTUALLY ask: stop with the "just wondering if maybe possibly..." passive word salad and start using active language like you mean itThe Harvard hack: One word that increases compliance by 60% My Rock Bottom Era: That time I was so broke in Australia I DM'd literally everyone I'd ever met to sell $15 yoga classes (and it worked)! My ask for you this week? GO ASK FOR MONEY. A refund, a raise, an upgrade, an investment into your biz -- anything!

    A Case for Asking: The Visibility (& Revenue) Glow-up with Antonia Dolhaine

    Remember when every coach told you to "post consistently", "show up" and "provide value" on social media? Somatic Depth Coach Antonia Dolhaine did that for YEARS. She created insane viral graphics, wrote endless carousels, and dealt with the classic entrepreneur nightmare: hours spent on Canva graphics leading to tons of inquiries from people who weren't actually a good fit for her work. Wasted time, energy and effort. Sound familiar? Antonia ditched the content grind and worked with me to get her featured on podcasts instead. Something wild happened: Her applications dropped, but her revenue spiked! Turns out, getting 30 knee-jerk reactions from a viral post isn't as valuable as getting 3 people who've already heard your voice for an hour and know exactly what you're about (and are ready to make a high-ticket investment). In this conversation, we break down why she made the switch, and the incredible visibility glow-up that's happened since. Direct quotes from the convo: "80% of those people who are writing in weren't the right fit for my containers because they were just coming through this very simplified graphic that had mass appeal, but like I'm not a mass appeal coach.""I find it so much easier to explain what I do when it's in a conversational format... I'm very much someone who needs something to respond to.""My client work has doubled... I get a third fewer applications that come through, but those applications are 90% aligned, whereas the applications I was getting before were like 15% aligned.""It feels like at this point, any marketing efforts that I'm making are like the bare minimum with the maximum impact.""It doesn't feel like work every time I've recorded a podcast. And I have just gotten into this routine of going for this very jaunty walk after every podcast episode, just like letting all of that enthusiasm kind of spring through my steps." This could be you!

    How to Handle Rejection When Asking for What You Want

    This week, I get into the number one thing that holds people back from asking for what they want: fear of rejection. I'll share the psychology around the fear of rejection and why building up a tolerance to get rejected is the fastest way to build meaningful connections, ironically! Episode snippets: Most people aren't sitting around dissecting your asks in group chats (that's your insecurity talking)When someone says "not right now" or doesn't respond, they're usually just busy living their own complicated lifeYou're making it about you when it's probably about their capacity, timing, or circumstancesHow to gamify rejection and learn to use it as dataThe importance of having safety nets when shooting your shot"Not right now" isn't "never"My hot take on why thinking everyone is talking about you is arrogantStart small and slowly build the heat with your asks to get comfy with hearing "no" and why it's usually redirectionMy own personal experience with rejection, including recently in Lisbon!

    How To Ask for What You Want

    In this kickoff episode of "The Art of the Ask," a limited series podcast all about the power of asking for what you ACTUALLY want—whether in business, life, or relationships, I share how I've SHOT MY SHOT and gotten exactly what I wanted (and of course, how you can too)! This episode starts with a definition of what "asking" actually means (you know my Virgo Moon/Rising loves a Latin root or definition), and how I built my "ask" muscle, first with landlord negotiations, and then with a massive wellness influencer... What else to expect this episode: - Why asking for what you want is often seen as "cringe" or selfish, and how to overcome this limiting mindset - Real-life example of how I negotiated with my landlord and the ripple effects of those asks - The importance of creating a win-win situation when making requests - How asking led to unexpected DRAMATIC business growth, including landing podcast guest spots and new clients (like, LOTS of new clients) - The law of reciprocity and why timing and empathy matter when making an ask - The value of orbit-jumping: getting out of your echo chamber to reach new audiences and opportunities - Actionable tips for pitching yourself, negotiating, and building collaborative relationships If you liked this episode, you'll LOVE these (seriously): The Witch Wound - Taking Down the Patriarchy Through Putting Yourself Out ThereShoot Your Shot - Or Miss Out On Life's Biggest OpportunitiesRejection Won't Kill You - What It Means & How to Deal With ItSelling Without Social Media Here's my ask for you! - DM me on IG @chelseariffe or email team@chelseariffe.com and tell me - what have you asked for recently, and what were the results? - Follow this podcast, rate, review, and tag me on socials - and following the law of reciprocity, I'll send you my handy-dandy Visibility Vault Notion doc - a list of newsletters and platforms to pitch to and get strategically placed!
