This is Stephanie’s third and final coaching session in this episode series. 

Her first coaching session is Episode 137 and her second session is Episode 138. If you haven’t already heard the prior sessions, it’s recommended you listen to those before listening to this one. (This episode builds upon the two prior episodes and will make a lot more sense if you’ve listened to those first.) 

In this final session with Stephanie, we discuss workaholism and how to create pet business success with grace, ease and joy. How to drop the compulsive hustle and work grind in order to truly enjoy life while creating financial success. It IS possible to create a work life that gives you both a happy life and financial abundance! No need to choose one over the other.

As you listen to this coaching session, think about your own life and business and, like Stephanie, you may also gain insight and guidance on how to create a life you love to live as a pet business owner.

This is Stephanie’s second coaching session. Her first session is Episode 137. If you haven’t already heard her first session, it’s recommended to listen to her first session before listening to this session.

Since the first coaching session, Stephanie has stopped spending time on social media since that took time and energy away from working on her passion project (the business she discussed in Episode 137). 

She’s now only allowing herself to post on social media when she’s accomplished something as a way to be accountable instead of a way to distract herself by getting lost down the rabbit hole of social media. 

As we explore what else is taking up her time and energy, we explore the three major areas of life and work right now: parenting her 5-year-old son, her dog walking business and teaching at a university. 

When she thinks about adding this passion project business to her already-full schedule it’s causing her to feel very overwhelmed. So, where does she go from here? What does she need to do to step away from the overwhelm to focus on what matters most to her?

You’ll find out in this coaching session!

If you would like to combine a wonderful vacation along with an empowering day of private 1:1 pet business coaching with me, Kristin Morrison, the VIP Coaching Day is for you! 

In this episode you’ll hear from Karissa, a pet sitting and dog walking business owner from Michigan. 

Karissa combined her very first trip to Hawaii along with a day of coaching with me when she was in Hawaii – and she got to write off a large part of her vacation on her taxes because part of her vacation was a business trip! 

(Be sure to ask your accountant how much you can write off when scheduling a VIP Coaching Day with me.) 

I’ve got a handful of VIP Day spots available in California and Hawaii in 2024. I look forward to helping you in either Hawaii or California!

Stephanie has had a dog business for many years and though she wants to continue growing her pet business, she also wants to create a new online business that is targeted to pet parents. She is thinking that an online business could be a good “branch” off her current pet business. 

She has a lot of questions about logistics around creating an online business and how to balance both her service-based business with an online business. 

At the end of this session, we dive deep into her mindset. Stephanie has a profound awareness of how she feels like she never has enough. She feels like she doesn’t have enough, that she’s not doing enough. You’ll hear more about this in the next session with her that is focused on mindset. Stay tuned for part two!

Today’s podcast coaching client is Kristen.

She boards dogs in her home and has three sons who keep her busy. She is going through a divorce and her soon-to-be ex-husband supported most her financial needs and now she needs to make more money in her dog boarding business. 

What becomes apparent as we begin this coaching session is that she needs to get clear how much she needs to make each month. We discuss the gifts that can happen when she does financial tracking and also the best way to track business and personal numbers. 

We also explore the goal setting process and why it’s important for Kristen to do and how her financial goals may positively impact her net profit.

We also discuss the glass ceiling and what can help her move beyond current financial blocks. 

On a personal level, one of Kristen’s barriers that has affected her self-esteem (and earning) is that her prior partner didn’t support her and in fact, put her down a lot. She experienced a lot of belittling from him, and it really wore down her self-esteem. Now that she’s out of that relationship and can see clearly, she needs to strengthen herself internally, cultivate confidence and self-esteem both while living her life and running her dog boarding business.

Hi pet pros! Hope you’re doing well today.  

I’m hopping in your feed today with a special announcement. 

I hope to see you at the 28-Day Business and Life Bootcamp for Badass Women.  

~Kristin Morrison

This is an episode from my other podcast that is for all types of business owners called Business Pathfinder.

I wanted to share this episode with you, dear pet business owner, because I think you may find it helpful too. A lot of pet business owners suffer from what my coaching client in this session is struggling with here.

It’s my hope that if you also struggle with what my coaching client is grappling with, that hearing this session will help you – and perhaps even begin to help you heal, too.

My coaching client in this session is Alex. She is a software engineer and entrepreneur in Poland. She helps business owners master technology through a membership site she created called Tech Club.

Our conversation at the beginning of the session may at first seem like it’s not relevant to Alex’s business but as you listen, you’ll hear it sets the stage for where we end up going in this session. 

Alex is one of those entrepreneurs who “has really good starts” but after her initial success, her projects seem to fizzle out. 

We bring who we are into our business. If we’re not consciously aware of what we’ve learned about money and work from our parents and grandparents, we may unconsciously carry those parental beliefs that aren’t ours into our work.

This can also happen with childhood wounds that have not yet been healed – they can profoundly impact how we run our businesses, as you’ll hear is the case with Alex. 

Trigger warning: there’s a brief mention of suicidal thoughts in this episode, so please take loving care of yourself as you listen.
