Filed in All Episodes, Business Strategy, Emotional Intelligence, Leadership Development — July 5, 2022

About the Episode

It’s not about what you do. Your success is being ignited by the pause and the space that you’re giving yourself to be.

Welcome back to the Shamelessly Ambitious Podcast! In this episode, I’m talking to Kelsey Van Kirk and I am so excited as this is my first ever podcast interview in Costa Rica. It feels really special – just as special as the message behind this episode. 

Kelsey is here today to give you one of the greatest permission slips you will ever receive. And, as she said in the episode, “…all the abundance that’s meant for you will find you if you’re open to it.” Make sure to tune in because that’s just the start of some major gems that Kelsey drops – I know you’ll find something that resonates with you.

Thanks for listening. Thanks for being here.

I am the definition of duality—I swear like a sailor and break rules like it’s my job, but I also hold incredible space for my clients and work my ass off to help them achieve the success they’re after (but faster).

My background in counseling and my experience founding three multi-6-figure businesses gives me a unique perspective on what it means to show up and serve as an ethical and successful CEO. Leaning on my experiences, along with the experiences of the hundreds of women I’ve been honored to work with, I offer founders a psych-backed and human-first approach to scaling their legacies—both in and out of the office. 

I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to anything, but especially business. Because at the foundation of any profitable, sustainable, ethically sound business is one thing: humans being humans. And to do anything without first considering the human behind the action (i.e., with intention and vulnerability) is to remove our most powerful predictor of success—ourselves.

Around here, you’ll find a personalized and multidimensional client experience paired with a few tastefully dropped fucks. You’ll also find a new way of being in business that’s sustainable, ethical, and built around your life (not the other way around).
