Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm

I have read countless books on leadership, listened to thousands of podcasts,  buried myself in an expensive curriculum around leading, inspiring, and mentoring others. But if there's one thing I've learned as I've built my own 7 figure business and by doing deep inner work with hundreds of high growth women per year, it's that the vast majority of gaps in business and team leadership aren't a byp...

We are all experience post pandemic price increases as consumers, but as business owners there is not a ton of great advice around how to gently adjust pricing in a way that keeps your business operations running with lucrative profit margins, continues to attract the most ideal, most loyal clients, and saves you from a windfall of headaches and complaints. And you know me, I'm all about sharing p...

Today I am going to share with you entrepreneurship lessons that I learned while I was an employee.  You see, when I was a rep I knew I would own a business someday.  And many of you listening are future or budding entrepreneurs, or have thought about a side hustle. And now as a business owner myself I routinely find myself leaning into lessons, habits, and tactics that contributed to my success b...

Hello Leader! This week I am excited to share with you some powerful pearls of practical and tactical knowledge that I have gained working with some of the most successful injectors around the globe. So often we look at others who appear to be in high demand or fully booked.  Maybe they have a massive IG following and we struggle to understand what makes them so special.  Appearances can be deceiv...

Typically as business owners, most of the instructions we follow are our own. We are typically the ones calling the shots, leading the strategy, organizing everyone else around the vision, and because of that, it's really only when we invest in our own accountability that we have someone else challenging us to see our own world through a different lens. We basically get to call shots even when tho...

I recently stopped to think about success, what the word means to me.  And what it really means to our clients at KLC. We are always talking about "success"- how to achieve it, how to get more of it, where to find it.  Society has 100% shaped culture around this substructure of growth or achievement.  I mean, after all, who doesn't want to be "successful"? There are billionaires who have achieved...

This week I am sharing a very special Fierce Factor Encore episode with a very special person in my life. This woman is someone who caught my attention when she absolutely captivated her audience on stage at an industry event her company asked me to speak at.

This week I want to take a few minutes to address a very real, very raw, and very sensitive conversation that is rarely discussed in business circles, yet is so potent, it can act as a virus that quietly and painfully deteriorates the joy of its owner. Today I want to talk about this real thing.  Because WHEN you get to this point, you need to know you are not alone.  You need to know you have som...

In this week's Fierce Factor episode let's address the elusive ideology that we aren't always the ones in control and how we as business owners don't always have the ability to see through the clearest lense. I routinely use the analogy that you can't see the bottle from inside the label.  Or the picture from inside the frame.  It's a perspective thing.  That is why it is extremely valuable to bri...

Today I wanted to share some insights behind our recent release of a new program Confidence to Scale as a case study for how to design a program or launch a proprietary service to serve a population of underserved, under-researched, and under-recognized consumers.  I'll discuss how a year of strategic planning has been the catalyst for growth that has positioned us as competition-less in our marke...

On a scale of 1-10, how much do you love the process of talking compensation with your employees? If you answered 1-2 on the painful side, you are not alone. Central Idea: You don't need to pay MORE for passionate, engaged employees...

There is truly a phenomenon sweeping over great practices across the nation.  Essentially, the pandemic and the nuances related to employment of essential team members has left many business owners in a tough spot. The supply and demand for minimum and medium wage workers is completely out of whack. Who hasn't been to a restaurant recently that is short staffed? Here's the thing, businesses are hi...

Long gone are the days where dad business deals over aged Scotch with the guys while mom cooks, cleans, and bathes the children.  The world just doesn't function like that anymore.

Today's episode is inspired by the powerful work our academy members are doing in reimagining what "status" even means.  Meaning growth is personal and what you should be striving for in your business is completely individual- perhaps it's more freedom.  More time with kids, more martini lunches…. And if you like the sound of this you'll enjoy this episode 75, REFLECTIONS: Where I am making friend...
