Visit today's blog post here. One of my biggest secrets to getting my clients a lot of results, and having MY business continually growing on a 3 day work week...  Is having a LIFE outside my business that INSPIRES me to work only 3ish days a week.  Traveling with my kids, dancing 5+ hours a week, doing pilates...  I remember a time when it felt impossible to make time for things outside of work and motherhood. Today, Marissa and I are having a conversation about smashing the patriarchy one 5 minute block at a time. Every time you take up space. Every time you prioritize your mental and physical health.  Marissa is one of the best cycling coaches in the world. She helps women say yes to adventure later in life, and see what it looks like to have ENERGY and HEALTH after 40 when we are experiencing perimenopause.  You're going to love Marissa, her story and her passion. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Are you scared of having a big business? I'm here to tell you that it's safe for you to treat your small business like a small business. This does not mean you are closing yourself off to growth, it just means you can make it happen your way. As I was reflecting on this topic this week, it really blew my mind and I knew I had to bring it to you here on the podcast. When I first started my business, I was honestly terrified of success because I thought that meant I would no longer be able to be a present mom. But as I've grown, I've made the business work for me so that I still get to do the things that I love, get paid for them, and be a patient and present mama. This episode is going to help you overcome that fear of success, define what success looks like for you, and show you how you can make your life big and your business small. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur The Heart Centered Entrepreneur Podcast is produced by Heart Centered Podcasting.

Today I really want to demystify this for you today and tell you exactly what you need to create and when in order to quickly make the most money and create the most impact. I'm breaking down the evolution of my group course, Get & Coach Your First Client, which originally started as a 12 week course that I live launched 2x a year, but is now an evergreen course in which I enroll people all year long. There is no one right way to make money, but there is a lot of noise and it can be hard to discern who to listen to and what is the right way for you and your business. So listen in and take what you need! I can't wait to hear about the action you're going to take after listening. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur The Heart Centered Entrepreneur Podcast is produced by Heart Centered Podcasting.

This is a two part series where I am sharing the different things that I would do if I was starting and scaling my business from scratch because I want you to learn from my mistakes! If you haven't, tune into the last episode because I talked about how I would create my first $5K online and the core strategy to creating six figures. In this episode I want to talk about if I was scaling past six figures and doing it from scratch, what would I do? We'll be talking about three main things – embracing sales, hiring your first team member, and working through what may be happening in your personal life. I'm really excited to share this with you because I think it's just such a good reminder of the things that really work. In our industry, there's so much noise and I believe you stumbled on this podcast episode for a reason. I don't believe things happen by accident. So I hope you hear a nugget in this episode that unlocks something big for you and gives you insight and you're able to end this podcast episode and take some action that will help you manifest more money, peace, abundance, and grounded energy into your life. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur The Heart Centered Entrepreneur Podcast is produced by Heart Centered Podcasting.

In this episode, I'm exploring what it really means to release guilt and shame around the old chapters we might consider "failures" - the businesses, investments, and relationships that didn't work out. I talk about the difference between reflecting and self-judgment, and how carrying shame from an old season can quietly shape the results we create today. This conversation is about bringing forward the lessons we've learned along the way, honoring the past version of ourselves who were truly doing the bravest they could, and learning how to bring the lessons forward without dragging the guilt along with them. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

It's Gratitude week, and my favorite Thanksgiving memories are my entire extended family squeezing into my great aunt's one-bedroom apartment- and the warmth, the laughter, the turkey, singing around the piano.  The world is wild right now, so I hope you are being gentle with yourself this week and not putting an EXTRA family pressure on yourself. Take the space you need to for you.  The holidays can sometimes be hard and business almost always has chapters of hard, so in this episode, I'm sharing 2 super practical tips for personally reducing overwhelm and 2 strategic tips for returning you to results in your business so you can end the year strong.  Especially if you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck or in the in-between, this episode is a big e-hug from me to you. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm sharing 3 non-sales skills (that you already have!) that will help you make a lot of money when you tap in... And the first one, of course? Presence and listening. When you find it, it feels like a magical flow and makes you lots of money, but it can be hard to access!  Yes, it's important to spend about 20% of your energy planning for the future (I love doing this with my clients, helping them make strategic plans), and yes, 20% reflect on the data and the past. But 60%+ of our energy should be in the present if we want to make easy money in 2026.  Remember, the money is in the present, and the money is in the listening. Consider this episode your money-flowing pep talk. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. At the start of my business, I actually Googled, "How do I get clients without selling?"...  Anything but having to be icky and cold DMing people. Or making them feel small in order to get them to buy. I felt a shrinking, a contraction, a nervousness.  Then I had an ah-ha moment. What if instead of 'selling' I could just 'invite' people in a kind, clear, direct, pressure-free way to my programs? What if it could feel light and easy and generous? And then it really did start to feel that way.  In this episode, I'm sharing 7 EXACT reframes that changed how I felt about getting clients, and my clients use these NEW WORDS to this day (I even hear them circulating online sometimes!). It may sound wild, but our words matter and can totally change how we take action and make lasting money in our business.  You can use these reframes to shift how you approach selling, too. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm exploring how feeling secure—financially, emotionally, and energetically—is actually one of the most powerful business strategies you can use. We're told to do what "works," invest everything, and push through discomfort. But for heart-centered entrepreneurs, we need to take a different approach.  I share my own story about wanting to wait for the "perfect financial time" to buy a home (and why I'm so glad I didn't), plus a story from Suzie Orman that illustrates the importance of investing and defining security on your own terms. This episode is all about creating your safety bubble and feeling secure as a way to tap into more abundance, freedom, and income. Because when you feel secure, you show up differently, and make LASTING money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. I used to resist change like the plague 😅 But when something feels aligned… it's ALL SYSTEMS GO. I made literally 10 changes to my mastermind this round, and it turned out to be my easiest launch yet In this episode, I'm walking you through each shift,  from the giveaway that kicked off the launch to the updated messaging that reflected where my clients actually are… I'm telling you everything.  I know truly ethical, heart centered sales and marketing advice is hard to come by. So listen in to everything I did to update my program, and the ways I'm selling and showing up in 2025 to continue growing my income on a 3 day work week. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this week's episode, I'm sharing about a recent dating experience that left me feeling embarrassed, and what it reminded me about business, rejection, and why showing up with your whole heart is still the bravest thing you can do. It takes vulnerability to be visible in love, business, or life. I find that MANY women who are successful at most things in life struggle with the reality that in business, there are SO MANY MORE chances for micro-failures.  Putting your heart out there online is nothing to be embarrassed about. It's something to be proud of. So few women do it. It's scary to get visible. To be seen. To risk connection. But it's the only way to live fully as a heart centered woman. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm talking about how we fill our hours outside of work. As heart centered entrepreneurs, we pour so much energy into our businesses, but I want to remind you that your freedom isn't just about fewer work hours. It's about creating a business that supports all the things that matter to you outside of work.  I share stories from my own week (including a Pilates class taught entirely in Spanish!) and why exploring hobbies and learning new things helps us grow in unexpected ways. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm sharing six true luxuries in life that have nothing to do with how much they cost, and everything to do with how your life feels day-to-day. From slow mornings to a calm body and more, I walk you through what I deliberately built into my routine so I can enjoy my work, my family, and my health. Consider this your nudge to make your own list of six and claim them, one intentional shift at a time. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. "I don't need money." I hear women say this all the time. And really, I used to say it too.  But here's the truth: money is a beautiful, powerful tool in the hands of heart-centered women. It's okay to desire money to fuel your dreams and desires. ❤️ In this episode, I'm sharing 3 of my favorite money mindset shifts from my book. And honestly, if you take just one of these and lean into it even 10% more, I'm convinced it will make a big difference this quarter, not just in the money you make but in the amount of time/hustle/effort you are putting into making the money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Growing up, I often took the approach of don't expect the good to happen, because that way if it doesn't, you won't be disappointed. But that model came crashing down when I left corporate and landed in entrepreneurship. As a business owner, you ALMOST ALWAYS are not meeting your goals because… Big goals = Big action. And big goals get you MUCH further than small goals that keep you stuck in the mediocre. In this episode, I'm sharing why business is really a series of "micro-failures," and why that's NOT a bad thing. I also dive into my process for how I help my clients face their fears, make a plan for the real ones, and release the rest — so they can step into their next level of income and success. Because fear might feel like control, but really it just keeps us stuck and small. And I'm not letting you stay in fear anymore. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. One of the best ways I've created more stability in my business (and life) while working a 3-day workweek is through something I call gold space. This is different than white space because white space means we are doing absolutely nothing. And in my book, that literally never happens for women, and it also terrifies us to be completely still and quiet. 😆  Gold space is about reclaiming time, energy, and margin in ways that bring peace back into your week. Part of it may be prioritizing things you are already doing. Some of it is finding pockets of time for YOU. In this episode, I'm breaking down what gold space looks like in real life, why it matters for your income, and how you can start making room for it — even in small doses. Because here's the truth: gold space makes you money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

True story: I sit down to write my launch emails… and suddenly I'm ordering safety patrol shorts for my son, tearing up at baby photos in Google, and realizing my client got totally sidetracked by IG reels. 😅 Being a business owner can feel heavy - between the money stress, inboxes, and to-do lists that follow you into dinner and bedtime. But here's the thing: while entrepreneurship carries a lot of responsibility, it also carries huge rewards. And not everyone is brave enough to take that on, but you are. In this episode, I'm sharing 7 of my favorite hacks to feel more mentally free in your six-figure business. These are the shifts that let me make the most of my 3-day work weeks. Because so much of it is being able to ENJOY those 3 days while you work and then enjoy the 4 days you aren't working. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

In this episode, I'm sharing the key leadership principles that have helped me, and many of my done-for-you service provider clients (i.e. website designer, accountant, VA, OBM, SMM, Podcast Managers), build sustainable, 6 figure businesses on a 3 day workweek. These principles are helpful for ALL business owners, and especially those who HAVE team members. In the episode, I dive into maintaining boundaries, managing mistakes, and fostering open feedback along with real examples of how I actually apply these principles in my own business and with my team (and how you can too!). –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur
