Where established business owners reveal what it’s really like to be CEO and simultaneously pursue abundance. Abundance looks different for everyone and no two businesses are built the same. During this open conversation, discover how circumstance, actions, and events created emotional reactions of either abundance or scarcity throughout their business-building journey. Much of whether we grow or get stuck playing small depends on the mindset we choose and the actions we take during the highs and lows throughout our entrepreneurial journey. Find out how workload, relationships, and money played a role in business owners’ decisions, emotions, and mental health during various stages in their business, when they made key decisions about hiring, marketing, and outsourcing, and how hosting their own podcast played a role in their personal development AND the growth of their business. Virginia Elder, host and owner of Podcast Abundance, shares pieces of her own journey from corporate life to freelancer to business owner, plus interviews other entrepreneurs with thriving businesses who use their podcast to establish authority in their niche, provide educational content for potential clients, and drive leads into their business. During the first half of each interview episode, you’ll get an inside look at the guest’s business and hear about challenges, plus the habits and actions that help navigate them. Our goal is to uncover the mindset and mental health shifts that worked for them to help you thrive during your journey. Then, in the second half of the interview, we switch the conversation to marketing strategies and learn how launching a podcast helped them grow their business and mature as a founder, speaker, and collaborator for their brand. Every business needs a reliable marketing arm that consistently and automatically attracts potential clients, and these guests have a successful, active podcast doing exactly that! Learn how they started, what changed, and how they’ve grown since becoming a podcast host. We’ll reveal podcasting strategies that work and prep you for the emotional rollercoaster that occurs any time you step up to play big in life. Abundance is within reach for all of us, but the pursuit of abundance is never over. It takes intention, a clear vision for what abundance means to you, and a consistent level of consciousness around your actions and emotions throughout your journey. Cheers to Reaching Abundance together!

Embracing Curiosity in Your Business
Amy encourages those venturing into the world of entrepreneurship to embrace messy action. Stay curious about what works and what doesn’t work for your business, and be willing to adjust along the way.
“Being an entrepreneur, we have to be willing to take risks, very calculated risks. But it does involve stepping outside of your comfort zone, acknowledging that fear, and going, you know what? I've got an empire to build, and I'm going to do it. Even though to everyone else it may not make sense, it makes sense to me, and let's just go for it.” - Amy Traugh
