TL;DR ▶️ On Friday May 26th I hosted an ‘IRL’ meetup for the Visionary Community and it was AMAZING!Running an Online Business offers so many amazing opportunities— from being able to operate a business without physical storefronts, all the way to connecting with clients around the globe. It’s such a gift to be able to work remotely, and do what I love from my laptop.However, no matter how convenient the miracles of modern technology may be — nothing compares with in-person connection! The connectivity formed from face-to-face hang outs (and no, I’m NOT referring to staring at someone’s face through Zoom!) is truly irreplaceable, which is why I decided to host our 3rd official Visionary Meet Up at a restaurant called Planted In Hamilton and we had 16 amazing visionaries (past + present clients of mine, and students of our Visionary Courses) who came from all over!Some of the attendees even commuted over 4+ hours to be there Others came knowing NOBODY else in the room,But all of them OPEN to the magic that happens when entrepreneurs connect Tune in to hear ALL the details!-p.s.Whenever you’re ready, there are 3 ways I can support you right now…Start Your Online Business ($0 to $50,000k Blueprint): Click here to learn more about how The Visionary Method™ can help you ➡️Private 1:1 Marketing Coaching: Small tweaks to your Marketing Strategy can skyrocket your business success….

Are you ready to hear how I made an extremely bold decision that was outside of my comfort zone? Get ready, because I'm going to be taking you step-by-step through why I ended my free weekly coaching calls, and the results that came from it.It was a bold move that I resisted in multiple ways, but instead it had amazing results.

Today I have a very special episode for you. I'm being interviewed by my colleague and my business partner, Emily Elliott!If you aren't familiar with Emily, she hosts the Magnetic Life Podcast and she also is the co-host of the 90 day program we teach for online business owners called Your 2023 Leap.Emily brought me on the podcast to ask me some questions about the realness of starting a business and what it really takes to succeed and sharing a little bit about my story and my journey of leaving the corporate world and actually pursuing this life of running a business, but also building freedom, building wealth in all areas of life and having creative control over everything that I get to do in order to run this business and build this brand. This episode is super timely because we're actually starting our next cohort of 2023 Leap on May 17th. We feel so passionate about this program overall and why it came to be because Emily and I on paper have built our lives and businesses in very different ways. I'm more of the marketing brain, the strategy, the tactics. Emily is more leaning into the power of attraction and manifestation and embodying that physiology of success. And it's so funny because when we first met and got chatting, we realized that our skill sets are radically different. But as we started learning from one another, we also noticed that we each had a missing link in our business. For me, it was the mindset piece that Emily teaches to her clients. And for Emily, it was more of the strategy and tactical piece. So we actually started working together. And because of the insane results that both of us were having, the constant voice notes of, oh my God, this has been transformative.Learn more and enroll: https://kelseyreidl.com/2023 Timestamps:00:05:17 Find your community.00:07:41 Invest in your business growth.00:16:44 Adapt or Evolve - you choose!00:17:38 Take a bet on yourself.00:23:20 How to trust your intuition and listen to those gut feelings.00:33:29 Wear all the hats.00:39:31 Hold on to your vision.00:41:17 Embrace freedom and possibility.00:46:35 Build business without burning out.00:52:26 Cultivate a business success mindset and grow beyond your wildest dreams!Learn more and enroll: https://kelseyreidl.com/2023

Choosing to start your own business means that you’re choosing to embark on the greatest adventure of your entire life.Notice how I didn’t say, it will be the greatest vacation of your life.But rather, The greatest adventure.Because by definition, adventures mean there are a lot of unknowns, unexpected moments, and the potential for sheer chaos.Every day is a new adventure when you take the leap into running a business. You never know what's going to happen, and you have to be prepared for anything. You have to be fearless and always ready to take on whatever comes your way. It can be exciting and frustrating all at the same time, but it's definitely never boring.And I don't know about you, but I am willing to embrace a life of excitement rather than one that bores me to death and sucks my soul dry.-Let's connect!1.

She works with Clinician Entrepreneurs and business owners in the health and wellness space to create the impact and income that aligns with their purpose. She also hosts the IMPACT podcast, creates programs, and build businesses that align with her purpose and core belief – that when people have their health, they can change the world. She is here to lend innovative thinking, disruptive approaches and unwavering support to those who are on a mission to leave the world better than they found it. I invited Meghan onto the Visionary Life Podcast because I believe that she is a glowing example of what it means to be a High Performing Female Entrepreneur in the Health and Wellness Space. I am continually amazed at her pursuit of excellence and her ability to chase her dreams.In this episode, we discuss:What does High Performance mean to you? What does it mean to be a high-performance entrepreneur? What do you think enables the best of the best to achieve their dreams, especially as it relates to growing a business of impact? The entrepreneurial journey is not always upwards - how has that played out in your own journey and what do you do or what skills have you had to cultivate to ride those waves? You believe that daily dedication towards the mission is when the growth happens - but what about when a new practitioner or entrepreneur doesn't yet feel clarity around their mission or clear on their purpose? I know that you've talked publicly about being a hard worker and not being afraid to put in the effort, but you also shared that in 2022 you worked really hard and that didn't mean more bottom line or a better lifestyle.
