Tanya has had a crush on flowers for years now. It’s an obsession really!

Flowers have always been part of her life and she’s been designing professionally since 2001. Her Muskoka-based design studio shows the love she has for every bloom.

Her style is very natural and organic, perfect for weddings here in Muskoka and beyond. Tanya opts for locally sourced flowers whenever possible, some are even picked from her own gardens to create beautiful arrangements on event days.

Today I am sitting down with Claire Jordan, the owner of Kala House of Colour!

Kala is one of the cutest, most unique retail shops in Downtown Bracebridge - offering shoppers a collection of colourful, handmade and environmentally-friendly home goods, clothing & gifts.

Just picture a super instagrammable boutique shop & 10x it. That’s Kala!

Claire Jordan, the founder and creative mind behind the shop, has curated the most incredible space, filled with ethically sourced products & unique finds from other small businesses and entrepreneurs.

Nielsen’s is a full service bike shop that was originally started by Matt’s Father, but in 2012 the shop closed indefinitely when his father Kurt was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. Matt and Charlotte lived on the West Coast of Canada at the time, so they were not thinking about taking it over.

Fast forward a few years, Charlotte was driving by the original locations of Nielsen’s Bicycles & she saw a “For Lease” sign hanging. She called Matt, immediately!

The rest was history…

Even though the 2 of them felt ill-prepared to dive into entrepreneurship, they decided to take the leap!

In today’s episode, I’m going to tell you how to re-purpose 1 piece of content into 20 other pieces - it’s a total game changer!

Today I am sitting down with a beautiful soul who I met just over 2 years ago, while wedding dress shopping!

Her name is Krystal Darling and she is a Mama, a kick-ass entrepreneur of not 1 but 2 businesses, and she’s a lover of all things fashion - like seriously, her style is amazing and I wish I had her wardrobe.

I first connected with Krystal while searching for my dream wedding dress - a quest that took me all the way to Bracebridge Ontario, since I knew her shop had the exact dress that I was searching for. It was so serendipitous & it just so happened, Dave and I had chosen a wedding venue just a few minutes away from the shop, as well.

My experience working with Krystal was nothing short of amazing. She made the whole experience super comfortable and enjoyable - especially for someone like me, who barely ever gets out of her lululemons and tank tops.

In this mini episode with Kelsey, we'll chat about Success Strategies aka How We Win.

Defined:

It’s how we show up, contribute & create -
while generating revenue & achieving all other success metrics.

It looks different for everyone (how you define success in life & business) and it's important to know your metrics.

To kick off season 6 and our 6 episode partnership with the town of Bracebridge Ontario, I'm sitting down with Curt Dunlop & Jed Corbeil, childhood friends turned multi-passionate business partners who are the power duo behind Muskoka Naturals Foods, The Griffin Pub, and many other exciting business ventures, together.

Today on the show, I’m chatting with my friend Stephanie Long, who is a Business Coach for Nutritionists.

She helps nutritionists to build their programs, reach more clients & successfully launch their business!

When Steph and I first connected via Instagram about 1.5 years ago, we were instantly intrigued by the very similar life paths that we had both followed. I guess you could say we were kindred spirits.

In this episode, I want to teach you some time-honoured marketing strategies for getting more clients in your business.

These don't involve a lot of money or any complicated tech stuff.

In fact, it's quite the opposite.

These are relationship-building marketing strategies that help clients get to know you better & deepen their trust with you!

Listen in to this awesome visionary girl-chat!

I sat down with 3 of my past Visionary Clients to talk about their experience navigating the global pandemic, and the shifts that are happening in the world right now.

It’s not often that I think about my own privilege as a white woman, but then again my daily life protects me from the daily fears that others live with.⠀

To be here… to be comfortable… to be podcasting… that is a privilege.
