2023 did not go as planned– to a comical degree. To be honest, I’m still processing it. I’d love to say that I have some big, grand lesson to share, but I’m not sure I’m at the end of this chapter yet (though I sense I am). I don’t mean to be cryptic, and I promise to share more details, but the shift I have experienced is hard to describe. It feels like my identity has changed at a deep level affecting every area of my life in ways I never expected. I spent 2023 experimenting. I knocked things down. I made a mess. I canceled what was supposed to be our biggest launch ever right in the middle of it. I launched an e-commerce site. As I’ve said many times, this year I was the Goldilocks of business models. It was humbling. Oof. In the best possible way. And not just in business.

On this week's episode, I am sharing my absolute #1 copywriting tip for coming up with language that connects on a VISCERAL level with your target audience. We are talking about the psychological phenomenon called the Curse of Knowledge that is preventing you from connecting with your ideal clients on a deeply, emotional, visceral level! Unless you step outside of your point of view, your marketing messaging is going to come form your point of view. To step outside of your point of view requires empathy. In today's episode, we're specifically covering The Curse of Knowledge What empathy actually is How to connect to audiences you don't relate to The Empathy Journal Putting yourself in the shoes of your ideal client Connect with Yay for Business: Instagram: yayforbusiness.co Website: https://yayforbusiness.co/ Email: hello@courtneychaal.com

Goal setting is a hot topic this time of year! I love planning and it has been a part of my business for the last 10 years. But traditional planning methods frustrate me. There is a lot I hate about the goal setting we're "supposed" to do in our businesses. Setting giant, wild (and sometimes unrealistic) goals is an exciting exercise for our brains. I call these Unicorn Goals; I love visualizing what it looks like to smash these insane goals. However, I use Unicorn Goals to fuel my creativity and excitement about my business. They are not set-in-stone markers of my success. Many business owners and entrepreneurs make the mistake of thinking their Unicorn Goals are the same as their realistic goals. It's important to have both magical and realistic goals as you plan out the next year of your business. Dive into this episode where I share why traditional planning doesn't work for me (and why it might not be working for you!), as well as my Anti-Planning strategy that you can use for your business going into 2022! In today's episode, we're specifically covering: Why I dislike traditional planning and goal setting The problem with setting a goal without making a plan Toxic positivity in planning The difference between realistic goals and unicorn goals The breakdown of where your revenue is going to come from How to calculate your revenue numbers How to hit your targets Why you need to refine your marketing and sales process Connect with Courtney Chaal: Instagram: @courtneychaal Website: https://courtneychaal.com Facebook group: Get More Clients Club Email: courtney@rulebreakersclub.com

On today's episode I dive deep into all of the struggles, strengths, and strategies that I have found to be most important on my journey to understanding ADHD. I am passionate about productivity because it is something I have struggled with and am still mastering today. A while ago, I realized that things that were more challenging for me were not so difficult for others. I started to use the term “rebel productivity” to explain my version of productivity and to share strategies that worked for me. As it turns out, rebel productivity is just harnessing the magic of ADHD. The coolest part about the tips I share in this episode? They work extremely well for people with ADHD, and they work extremely well for neurotypical people too. So whether you have ADHD or not, you're going to want to tune into this one!

Our thoughts and challenges with money often stem from our childhood experiences.

Do you know what your ideal life looks like? And no, I am not talking about the "ideal life" you see on Instagram. I am talking about what you truly want your life to look like. In the online business space, we hear a lot about pushing harder, finding freedom, making more money, leaving a legacy, and wanting more. Those are all great goals to have, but only if you really want them! Here's what no one tells you: It's okay to not make millions! It's okay to not want to leave a legacy. It's okay to want full freedom. Take the time to define your core values as a human being and accept that you can and will have different goals from those around you. In this episode, I share what motivates me, and hopefully, you will begin thinking about what motivates you! In today's episode, we're specifically covering: Defining your ideal life What matters to others may not matter to you Getting clear on your values and motivations Creating goals unique to you Knowing who the F you are!

Welcome to The Best of Yay for Business Podcast, where we are recapping some of the most popular episodes ever that you HAVE to listen to!! For a long time, I have been obsessed with the concept of time management and understanding how people produce their best results. I believe that productivity is not a rigid formula and that there are different ways to manage your time. Unlike what many experts say, time management does not have to be color-coded calendars, pristine planners, or perfect organization. It also does not have to be waking up at 5 AM each morning solely to be up earlier than others. Time management should be working with your schedule in a way that leaves room for self-care and self-compassion. Of course, some tasks are non-negotiable. However, if you stray from the exact time blocking you gave yourself for the day, things will not crumble around you, I promise! I will tell you when to give yourself more time when to give yourself less time, and how playing with your time management strategies will benefit you and your business. In today's episode, we're specifically covering Action-oriented time management Using your calendar as a tool and not as the dictator of your day Trying different methods to find what works for you in your current phase Knowing your work priorities Giving yourself time for your goals Today we talk about Time Management, so are you ready to create a schedule that allows you to take two weeks off from your business and set yourself up for success?

Welcome to The Best of Yay for Business Podcast, where we are recapping some of the most popular episodes ever that you HAVE to listen to! This episode is for service providers who are just beginning their career, are fully booked with client work, or feel overwhelmed by the amount on their plate each day. The problem for all of you is the same: you are not managing your schedule like a professional. There is a mindset for many beginning (and veteran) business owners claiming to make more money; we have to work longer and harder. This is far from the truth! Filling your calendar with "billable hours" from your clients will not allow your business to grow to the level of freedom you want. In this episode, I share two huge mistakes CEOs make with their calendars, my process for streamlining your business, and an ideal weekly calendar. You need to hear this if you want to advance to the next level, make more money, and have more legitimate freedom in your life. Are you ready to make this shift and create a schedule that allows you to take two weeks off from your business and set yourself up for success? If you are ready, sign up to join us for our FREE VIP Out Of Office Training on November 17th to learn how to schedule your vacation guilt-free.
