In this week's Fierce Factor episode we are going to explore a self-reflection of who you are as a leader of your business and team, and how that dynamic  impacts your aspirations as a thought leader .

Happy new year, WELCOME to 2024! It's likely that you are doing your own visionary planning and clarifying objectives to really get centered around your priorities for the season of growth you are in this year. I can't emphasize enough how critical it is to be working on the RIGHT activities in your business. The aesthetic industry has experienced a lot of tailwind over the past couple of years wi...

As we round out our 2023 year, I reflect back on wins, losses, and lessons learned.  And I ask myself who I want to become in 2024.  The question of what to work on PERSONALLY .  I often ask this question because I think we are so programmed to think about business growth, but what about us as people?  We need to keep ourselves sharp and growing as individuals A client recently talked about her go...

In this week's bonus episode of The Fierce Factor podcast, I am re-sharing an unedited (insider) discussion among our POP leadership academy led by our practice management strategic growth advisor, Justyn Green. Quite often our clients come to us at KLC to leverage our team's experiences as an industry reps and managers and together we prep to guide them through the decision making process of brin...

Have you ever considered what it takes to become a thought leader in the world? Well I have. In fact, in my past corporate role I was responsible for KOL (key opinion leader) "development". That meant I would seek to develop strategic partnerships with highly influential clients of ours who could be a spokesperson for our products. It's a brilliant move on behalf of a company seeking to gain credi...

Hello leader, welcome back to episode 190 of the Fierce Factor podcast.  It's your host Kaeli here bringing you an incredible gift of two inspiring and intentional business leaders in this podcast.  Today I am interviewing Katie Speaks and Delaney Poor, Co-founder and Intraprenuer of Beyond Skin Aesthetics based out of Gahanna, Ohio. So a little back story I'll share, I happened to be sitting at t...

Many of the clients we work with are so incredibly passionate about the work they do and out of the gate really put so much emphasis on building a pristine patient experience. The problem is that when it comes time to onboard support or scale your business, all that magic resides in your brain. There's no instruction manual or clear-cut explanations for what the business should look like. And I've...

Feeling swamped as we approach the holidays? You're not alone, especially if you're feeling swept up in managing your family, team, patients, partners, and more. Through all the hustle and bustle, time flies by quickly. Before you know it, you're scrambling to put a strategy together in advance, which is something you promised yourself you'd do differently next year. So, what can you do to better...

Today we're joined by Lexi Yoo, a nurse practitioner and the CEO of Yoo Direct Health. Lexi got into functional medicine several years ago after a role she had running a medical weight loss program. It was at this time she was given the opportunity to work with a doctor of osteopathy, which opened her world to holistic modalities. When she decided to branch out on her own, she decided to focus on...

We're diving deep into the mental roadblocks that could be holding you back from reaching the level of success you really want this week. We tend to circle back to the same excuses, often subconsciously. These are excuses as to why we can't invest in ourselves, why we can't make a decision, or why we can't get unstuck. Yet, you're also ambitious and driven to create a high-growth life—which means...

If you spend long enough working on your business, you eventually come to the realization that nothing happens overnight. That's why investing in sustainable growth for your business is so important. It's not about getting there fast, and the truth is that rarely happens anyways. It's about keeping a consistent pace you can maintain. The more time, energy, and resources you invest in doing things...

Today we're going to talk about what it means to demonstrate authentic strength as a female entrepreneur. Being a rose with thorns is a perfect example of beauty uniting with strength. These two parts come together in one beautiful feminine whole. This is just like the multi-faceted nature of female entrepreneurs—we are leaders who are honored for our authenticity, yet respected for our great stre...

This week's Fierce Factor podcast is a bonus replay that serves as a poignant reminder of the struggle many female entrepreneurs face – the urge to control every aspect of their business. This struggle for control, often well-intentioned, can have a significant impact on both business and personal life. The need for control often stems from a deep desire to protect what one cares about. So often w...

This episode dives into a critical lesson and experience in growth: Your personal board of directors. This refers to anyone you let into your brain. That is, the people who influence your personal and professional decision making. As much as you may see the value in calling for help when you need it, the truth is that getting support can still feel like more of a challenge than a relief. On top of...

Today I want to talk to you about a philosophy that seems counterintuitive to most people: the elegant no. We are programmed to think of no as a negative word, and that it's not something we like to hear or say. The truth is, bringing these narratives to the workplace as a leader or into your daily life will only serve to hold you back. Learning the skill of exercising the elegant no into your pra...

Today we're talking about how to diagnose dysfunction within your team. If something feels off with a team member or you notice a rift among your team, you'll want to access wisdom that can help you get to the root of the problem. Only then can you address it. When the culture within your business is off, the underlying cause isn't always clear. In fact, there could be several different factors at...

The fear of investing in an employee who winds up being the wrong fit (or worse siphoning intellectual property and trade secrets then bails) is a very common stagnating roadblock. That's why I decided to reshare this bonus episode for you this week. This lesson doesn't need a checklist, it doesn't actually require much strategy or structure. This message comes from the heart. It requires you to o...

Today's episode is all about a superpower that you have but probably aren't even aware of. This is something I call the "feminine edge." I am fortunate enough to have worked for successful, powerful women who embraced their femininity in their leadership roles and weren't trying to emulate their male colleagues. From their outfits to their communication styles, these women were true to themselves....

Recently, I sat down with two KLC Academy rockstars Allyson Reynolds and Olivia (Liv) Taylor. Allyson is an NP, and owner of OM Med Spa in Boise, Idaho, while Liv is the practice manager. We'll discuss how Allyson went from solopreneur to ultimately hiring Liv and how it has impacted her business in the most positive ways. Creating a strong team is the key to expanding your business. For years, Al...

What does it really take to grow your business? Many entrepreneurs will tell you they started their business to pursue their passions or experience being self-employed, but along the way, they've found great success. Now, they're inside an ecosystem of people who need them—and they're trapped in an overbooked schedule. Managing and building a team, overseeing inventory, business development, marke...
