  Why Successful Female Entrepreneurs Feel Empty After Hitting Seven Figures

  Sep 23, 202650 minS4

  I spent my early 20s in and out of jail, drinking every night, with no vision for my life beyond making it through the day. This episode is the conversation I had on Bunny Young's Yes, And! Podcast, where I shared that story publicly and connected it to the work I do now inside the businesses of multi-six and seven figure women who have built something impressive and still feel like something is missing. If you have ever hit a milestone you worked years for and felt nothing, this episode is going to make sense of that. Episode Overview Bunny and I cover the full arc: where I came from, what rock bottom actually looked like, how radical responsibility became the foundation of everything I built after it, and why the women I work with are not struggling because something is broken in them. They are struggling because the business was built to run on their exhaustion and no one ever showed them another way. We also get into the identity work that has to happen alongside the operational work, why money is not the problem or the solution, and what it actually looks like to build a business that does not require all of you to keep running. In This Episode Find out why hitting seven figures can feel emptier than you expected, and what that emptiness is actually telling you about the gap between the business you built and the life you wanted it to create. Learn the difference between fixing the business and fixing the person, and why most high-achieving women have been trying to solve an operational problem with personal development and wondering why nothing is sticking. Hear the story of my rock bottom, the moment I met my own eyes in the mirror after my third arrest, and why the glimmer of hope that showed up in that moment became the foundation for everything I built next. Discover why radical responsibility is not about blame but about reclaiming your choice, and how that one shift changes what is possible in your business and your life. Walk away understanding why a business that only works when you are exhausted and available around the clock is not freedom, no matter how much money it is making. About Bunny Young Bunny Young is the host of the Yes, And! Podcast, a show for anyone done waiting for permission to build their life the way they actually want it. Bunny is a serial entrepreneur and mom of four who interviews disruptors of hustle culture on topics ranging from business and money to parenting, health, and leadership.

  The Resentment You're Feeling Isn't About Your Spouse

  Sep 16, 202636 minS4

  If you have ever snapped at your husband for asking what's for dinner, cried in the car between school drop-off and your first call, or felt completely alone in a marriage where nothing is technically wrong, this episode is going to hit closer to home than you expect. Dr. Ashley Anthony is a Doctor of Chiropractic, business owner, and mom of three who co-owns 100% Chiropractic in Sharpsburg, Georgia, alongside her husband, Dr. Zachary Anthony. She joined me to talk about one of the most under-discussed topics in the mom founder space: what happens to your marriage, your identity, and your mental health when you are running a business and a household and somehow still feel like you are failing at both. Episode Overview We get into where resentment actually comes from, why the mental load is not just a productivity problem, what contempt does to a relationship over time, and how to start having the conversations that actually move things forward instead of just adding more tension. Ashley also shares her own story of leaving a marriage and rebuilding, and why she now helps women get clear on what they actually want before they make irreversible decisions. In This Episode Find out why the resentment you feel toward your spouse is almost never actually about your spouse, and what it is really telling you about your own unmet needs and unspoken expectations. Learn what the mental load actually is beyond the to-do list, and why carrying it silently for years is one of the fastest paths to burnout and disconnection in a relationship. Discover the difference between contempt and conflict, why contempt is the number one predictor of relationship breakdown, and what to do the moment you notice it showing up. Hear Ashley's framework for having the hard conversations without them turning into the same argument you have been having for years. Walk away knowing the first step to take if you are feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or like you are carrying everything alone, and why taking it sooner rather than later changes everything. About Dr. Ashley Anthony Dr. Ashley Anthony is a Doctor of Chiropractic and co-owner of 100% Chiropractic in Sharpsburg, Georgia, where she practices alongside her husband, Dr. Zachary Anthony. She earned her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Life University, with a focus on pediatric adjustments and nutrition.

  A Conversation With My 10 Year Old About Business, Leadership, and Being There

  Sep 9, 202617 minS4

  This is not a typical episode. No frameworks, no strategy, no guest bio. Just me and my 10-year-old son Cameron on a walk, talking about what he wants to do with his life, what he thinks makes a good leader, and what he thinks moms who run businesses should know. I recorded it because the conversation was too good not to share. And I think every mom founder who listens to this is going to feel something. Episode Overview Cameron wants to start a business that helps kids in foster care feel less alone. He wants to go to them, play with them, coach them in sports, and spend time with the ones who remind him of his friend Dakota, whose family was once living in a cardboard box on the side of the road. He would play with Dakota every single day at school because he could tell something was off and he wanted him to feel less alone. He also has very clear thoughts on leadership, honesty, budgeting, reinvesting in your business, and why moms who work until seven when their kids are already in bed might want to reconsider their schedule. I did not coach him on any of it. He just knew. What hit me most in this conversation was how much he has absorbed just from watching. He knows that good leaders tell the truth even when it is hard. He knows that if you want kids to feel better, you have to feel okay yourself first. He knows that seeing a smile on a kid's face is worth a million bucks. And he knows that the time you carve out for your kids in between the calls and the commitments matters more than most of us realize. What You Will Hear A 10-year-old's business plan for helping kids in foster care, including his thoughts on sponsorships, budgeting, and reinvesting revenue back into the programs instead of paying himself. His definition of what makes a good leader, including honesty, kindness, self-respect, a good mindset, and the ability to help people understand each other. A surprisingly clear take on why honesty in coaching matters more than just making someone feel good in the moment. Why he thinks moms should find time between work to be with their kids every single day, and his very specific suggestion for how to make it work. The moment he realized I was recording and immediately said, yes, put that on the podcast. His message to the moms listening: find time in between work to spend time with your kids. Even if it is just a walk. Even if you have a call in a few minutes. They notice. They always notice. Want to be in the right room?

  Sep 2, 202648 minS4

  You are the first thing people see before they ever read your website, watch your content, or hear your pitch. And if you have been putting your personal style at the bottom of your to-do list, this episode is going to change that. Amy Salinger is a luxury virtual fashion stylist who has spent over 20 years helping high-achieving women build wardrobes that actually work for their lives. She is also a single mom by choice, CEO, and someone who genuinely believes that confidence can be created from the outside in.

She also shares her outfit equation for taking the decision fatigue out of getting dressed every single day. In This Episode Find out why Amy calls herself a confidence creator instead of a fashion stylist, and the moment in a styling session when everything shifts for her clients. Learn the four-question outfit equation Amy uses to plan any outfit for any occasion, and why it works just as well for a Tuesday at home as it does for a big event. Discover why cleaning out your closet is not about having less but about removing the mental noise that is quietly blocking you every time you get dressed.

  Why Hiring Doesn't Fix a Business With No Systems

  Aug 26, 202640 minS4

  You hired someone to take things off your plate. Now you are training them, fixing their work, and somehow busier than before. The problem was never the person. It was the infrastructure they walked into. This episode is a conversation with Aveline Elfar, founder of AE&Co Operations Agency, who has spent seven-plus years inside six, seven, and eight figure businesses rebuilding the back end so founders can finally step out of it. Episode Overview We get into what it actually means to audit a business from the inside out, why most founders are solving the wrong problem when they hire, and how clean systems create better client experiences while giving you your time back. Aveline also breaks down the difference between automation and AI, where most businesses are wasting money on overlapping tech, and the two things you can do this week to start getting hours back without overhauling everything. In This Episode Find out the most common operational breakdown Aveline finds when she audits an established business, and why it has nothing to do with the team and everything to do with what the team was never given. Learn why building the plane while flying it works until it does not, and what it costs you emotionally and financially when your infrastructure cannot actually hold the growth you are chasing. Discover the difference between automation and AI, why most founders are paying for tech they are not using, and where the biggest quick wins are hiding inside tools you already have. Hear the one question Aveline asks every founder before recommending a single system, and why the answer changes everything about what gets built. Walk away with two practical things you can do this week to start identifying where your biggest time leaks are and what to do about them. About Aveline Elfar Aveline Elfar is the founder of AE&Co Operations Agency, a boutique agency that builds custom systems, automations, and process infrastructure for health and wellness entrepreneurs and service-based businesses across North America. With seven-plus years in the field and a team of seasoned tech experts, Aveline's approach always starts with popping the operational hood before building anything.
