Episode #48- How To Handle Objections Like A Pro
Put down your gavels and let’s prepare to ALL RISE against our fears because today Stacey is talking to us about OBJECTIONS like we have never thought about them before. If you are a coach or someone who does a Discovery (or Consultation) Call in your Biz, she knows you are familiar with this HUGE (and for many of us terrifying) topics. In “How To Handle Objections Like A Pro” Stacey offers us her unique and empowering point of view about this much-dreaded term that will help us cultivate an entirely different relationship with this concept (and the whole idea that people may have objections to working with you!) In this episode, Stacey helps us discover not only how to handle objections (if that is something you are concerned about) but also a method for us to understand the psychology of objections and what might be going on in someone else’s brain when they are using certain phrases that we don’t want to hear (#1 on the list being “I can’t afford it”).
Episode #47- How To Run A Challenge That Gets Results
If you have been following the podcast for a while, you know Stacey is always asking for our requests. She is so excited because someone from the P&P community reached out and asked if Stacey could teach about offering Challenges which she thought was a GREAT topic! In “How To Run A Challenge That Gets Results”, Stacey hopes to help you get out of overwhelm and confused around this particular type of offering and why you may or may not decide to try it out! Stacey dives deep into EVERYTHING we must consider in order to understand how Challenges work, who wants to do them, how you can make them more appealing for people, AND why it might be RIGHT for YOU. Tune in to discover how to create an engaging experience that provides a fantastic outcome for both you AND your participants and makes them want to keep on moving along your Yellow Brick Road and working with you in your P&P Biz!
Episode #46 - The Truth About Unsubscribes & Unfollows
Today Stacey talks to us about the UN’s (as in UN-subscribes and UN-follows) and how our relationship with these biz realities affects us as heart-centered humans and P&P business owners. In this episode, Stacey lays out what happens when we are living in total terror of people unsubscribing from our email list or unfollowing us on social media. Stacey realizes we DON’T LIKE MARKETING (yup, she KNOWS us!) She also understands that without it, we will NOT have a business. Marketing is HOW we build our authority, and connect with and attract our ideal clients. On this show, Stacey gives us the tools and strategies to help us reframe and overcome those fears and beliefs that keep us from putting ourselves out there, creating clients, and making money in our meaningful work. Tune in as Stacey shows us HOW to come out of hiding, take back our POWER and start believing that what we are offering is of great VALUE so we can wake up EVERY day and take empowered action in order to have the outcomes we DESIRE in our P&P Life and Biz.
Episode #45 - What Is Self-Care Anyway?
Stacey is super excited about today’s topic – self-care -- a big umbrella phrase that is out there in the world of wellness (and can mean so many things!) In episode 45 “What Is Self-Care, Anyway?” Stacey takes a deep dive into what self-care really is and if we are doing ourselves (or our clients) any favors by positioning self-care as something that is the opposite of working hard or running your life and business. Tune in as Stacey helps us embrace the idea that TRUE self-care is about knowing exactly how to nurture yourself in a way that supports you being able to be who you want to BE, so you can do what you want to DO and have what you want to HAVE, even if what you want to DO is work hard in order to get the outcomes you want in your Passionate & Prosperous Life and Biz.
Episode #44 - Your Fear Of Seeming “Sales-y” Is Killing Your Biz
Stacey is back with more money talk! In Episode 44, she returns with a new take on one of the most requested topics by the Passionate & Prosperous community and a defining element of having a P&P business - Making Money. In this episode, Stacey reveals how she shifted her own “starving artist mentality” and “scarcity mindset” to the empowered belief that she has a valuable service to sell (and that there are plenty of clients out there ready to invest!) Tune in as Stacey addresses what she knows is the #1 thing that our scarcity mindsets lead to when we want to make money in our businesses - the fear of seeming “sales-y”! In this episode Stacey teaches us what beliefs we need to undo and replace so that we are free to SELL our gifts, skills and talents (in a way that we love and that feels good to us) to make money in our Passionate & Prosperous Biz!
Episode #43 - There’s No Such Thing As Good Or Bad (And Other Yogic Anecdotes)
Recently a question was posed to Stacey by a student which was, how do we know if what we’re doing when we’re engaging in high vibe practices or working on our business is GOOD or BAD and this inspired the topic for today’s show – why simply SHOWING UP & PRACTICING = GOOD.
Stacey has been practicing and teaching Yoga for over 2 decades, and she not only knows how to do and teach the many practices (a lot of mind management!), but she also learned very early on what the true art of practicing is about. Embodying this concept changed everything about Stacey and her life! In this episode she is teaching us to wrap our minds around a seemingly simple yet incredibly profound idea that can transform the path of our expansion and growth - that showing up and practicing is ALWAYS good and there’s no such thing as a “bad” practice. Listen in as Stacey gives us the tools to help change our wiring so that we can wake up EVERY single day feeling that we are being a human to the best of our ability in our P&P Life and Biz.
Episode #42 - Evergreens, Done-For-You’s & Funnels, Oh My!
Stacey loves to teach us in a really clear way that doesn’t overwhelm or confuse us. In this episode she tackles a topic that people in business and entrepreneurship are deeply curious about yet also find extremely confusing – offering a service that you do not have to deliver live a.k.a. Evergreens or Done-for-You’s. Settle in as Stacey gives us the REAL DEAL about what everyone mythologizes as Passive Income.
Stacey witnesses a lot of us (especially coaches) who see other people offering these automated courses, believe it’s easier than it is, and then think that we should start doing it too. Stacey doesn’t want to tell us not to do something without us being able to understand what it entails so that we can make that decision for ourselves. In Episode 42, Stacey shares all of her Evergreen expertise so that we can have an educated, informed understanding of what Passive Income (and especially the funnels that accompany it) is. Tune in as Stacey explains exactly what organic live funneling is and then walks us through EVERY step of a Done-for-You course so that we can come away empowered with the knowledge to make the decision that feels most aligned for us in our P&P Life and Business.
Episode #41 - How To Keep “Comparison-itis” From Taking You Down
Lately Stacey’s been noticing just how tortured people are about what they think they SHOULD be doing and what other people ARE doing (especially as seen on social media!) That inspired her to create the show she thinks we really NEED about a very interesting phenomenon she calls “Compare and Despair” (a little thing she totally gets because she’s experienced it!) In Episode 41, Stacey delves deep into our mindset to help us better manage our thoughts, operating system, energy, and how we are showing up. Tune in as Stacey shares the 5 beliefs that she inputs into her brain to get out of “Compare and Despair” so that she can help us stay out of it too and be more successful in our P&P Life and Biz.
Episode #40 - How To Expand Your Mind, Time & Other Cosmic Stuff
Stacey has always been obsessed with the mind-bending topics of time, space, and the Universe. In this EPIC episode, Stacey illuminates how the mind-expanding activity of contemplating the Infinite and the Eternal (that she has always enjoyed engaging in) gives her a sense of living in a miraculous universe as well as being a key to the incredible thought processes of the scientists who devote themselves to uncovering the mysteries of the cosmos. These comprehensive concepts (as well as the AMAZING recently released photographs from outer space) give Stacey permission to have trust, find faith, and to be CURIOUS. Stacey strives for these things, and it is what she wants for ALL of us too. It is a major factor of why this show is not only about business strategy but can also be a guide for our default brain to get outside of itself and help us manage the art and science of being a human. Settle in as Stacey ties together how the WEBB telescope (a cosmic time machine up and running in space RIGHT NOW) that has scientists who study the universe going wild can also help us back here on earth stay the course in our P&P Lives and Biz!

So, it may come as no surprise that the #1 question she ALWAYS gets asked is “How does she make all these things happen?” In this episode, Stacey is going to talk to us with her signature candor and transparency about HOW she really does it ALL. Tune in as Stacey walks us through EVERY LITTLE STEP SHE TAKES to come into the strategic, energetic, and spiritual alignment required to BE who she needs to be, to do what she needs to DO to HAVE the Passionate & Prosperous Life and Biz of her dreams (the one she wants for and is AVAILABLE to you too!)
Episode #38 - The Exact Content You Need To Create (And Why!)

To turn that around for her peeps, a seemingly unlikely connection dawned on her. ALL the energy and behavior you need for your business is the SAME that you would use for dating. On today’s episode, Stacey is going to break it down and give us a brand-new perspective to help us feel more RELAXED in our relationships with our soul-aligned clients. Stacey gives us some concrete points to think about that she believes we are going to find really entertaining and that will SHIFT something for us IMMEDATELY (perhaps even during the show!)
