The Unfiltered CEO
Welcome to The Unfiltered CEO, where we share real stories of the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. Your host, Abby Bradetich of IlluminEssence Creations, is a business owner, brand & web designer, visibility strategist, and embodiment mentor always down for a dance party. In this podcast, we’ll dive into the authentic experiences of owning a business that you don’t always see online - the highs, the lows, and every spicy bit in-between. We’ll cover mindset, online presence, business, embodiment, social media, brand, and so much more as we turn our unfiltered stories into inspiring, actionable takeaways. In my corner of the internet, we say fuck the rules, aren’t afraid to make moves, and care more about things feeling good than comparing to what else you see online. No matter what stage of business you’re in, you’re welcome here! So grab a glass of wine or get out for your daily walk, and let’s get into it, girl!

Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD. And just because you started your business doing one thing doesn't mean you have to keep doing it forever. 👀
As entrepreneurs, it's SO easy to get caught up in doing everything ourselves, constantly thinking about work, and feeling like we should always be doing more. But what happens when the business you created for freedom starts taking up all your fucking time and energy?
This week I'm joined by Renee Seely, entrepreneur, teacher, and owner of her newly relaunched virtual assistant business, for a conversation about business pivots, outsourcing, motherhood, receiving support, and giving yourself permission to change your mind.
Because you get to build a business that evolves with you. You get to ask for help. And you get to actually ENJOY the life you're working so hard to create.
In this episode, we talk about:
Renee's journey from teaching to entrepreneurship during COVID, her pivot from virtual assistance to motherhood coaching, and why she's returning to the VA world
Navigating the fears, mindset shifts, and uncertainty that come with starting a business AND deciding to change directions
Why you're allowed to change your fucking mind as an entrepreneur—and how to stop worrying so much about what other people think
The power of sharing your experiences, going first, and helping other women realize they aren't alone in what they're navigating
Why business owners are often the WORST at taking their own advice, and my experience taking myself through my own 30-day private mentorship
Giving yourself the gift of time and presence through outsourcing, boundaries, and learning to receive support
The mental load of entrepreneurship and motherhood—and why loving your work doesn't mean you need to be thinking about it 24/7
Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD—and how to recognize when it's time to get something off your plate
How to decide what to outsource, when to bring in support, and how to trust someone else with your business baby
What Renee learned from her business pivots and how she's bringing those lessons into her newly relaunched VA business, including personal virtual assistant services
My experience letting go of social media management and other services I no longer wanted to offer
Why you can love your kids AND still need time, space, and experiences that are just for YOU
Renee's perspective on intentional parenting, navigating all the advice available online, and trusting yourself to make decisions for your family
The importance of having the RIGHT people in your corner through community, coaching, networking, and genuine relationships
Getting comfortable investing in yourself, stretching beyond what's familiar, and allowing others to support your growth
The magic of internet business friendships and why we both love bringing those connections into real life through events and retreats

You can know exactly how much revenue your business is bringing in and STILL have no fucking idea whether you're making the right decisions for its future 👀
Because understanding your finances isn't just about tracking what's coming in and going out. It's about knowing what those numbers actually MEAN, how to use them to make intentional decisions, and whether the business you're building is supporting the life you really want.
This week I'm joined by Christy Bowie, founder of Christy Bowie Financial Solutions, where she provides CFO-level advisory services for service-based founders. And we're getting into everything from profitability and financial forecasting to money energetics, receiving support, and why more isn't always better.
Because building a successful business isn't about endlessly growing, optimizing, and doing more. It's about having the clarity and confidence to make decisions that are actually aligned with YOU.
In this episode, we talk about:
Christy's journey from corporate accounting to entrepreneurship and why she's passionate about helping women actually understand their business finances
Why knowing your revenue isn't enough - and how to identify opportunities for growth that aren't limited by your time or capacity
Using your financial numbers to make intentional decisions around growth, investments, and the future of your business instead of guessing and hoping for the best
Why MORE doesn't always mean BETTER, and how to check in with what you actually want before making big business decisions
Our experiences letting go of some of our highest-revenue-generating offers because they no longer aligned with where we wanted to go
Navigating the natural highs and lows of entrepreneurship through financial projections, forecasting, and planning ahead
The energetics of money and creating a greater sense of safety, trust, and nervous system regulation around your finances
Why Christy recommends paying yourself a consistent monthly amount rather than a percentage of your revenue
How Christy and her team approach financial conversations with their clients - being honest about the numbers while helping them see what's possible
Why personalized support matters and how Christy's desire to make financial information more accessible inspired her to develop her own software
Understanding when a strategic investment might be worth making, even if it doesn't necessarily look like the smartest move on paper
Learning to receive support, ask for help, and recognize that you don't have to figure everything out on your own
Letting go of the pressure to constantly optimize every part of your business and life - and giving yourself permission to have some fucking fun
Why there isn't always something to fix about yourself or your business when things aren't going exactly how you planned
Christy's passion for endurance horseback riding, what competing looks like, and the role it's played in her life outside of business

Tomorrow I turn 34, and apparently we're using this week's episode to process allllll the feelings about that in real time. 😂
I've always looked at my birthday as my own personal New Year - a chance to reflect on who I've become, what's changed, what I've created, and what I want for the year ahead. And while I have SO much to be grateful for and genuinely love about my life, I'm also navigating the reality that some things don't look quite how I imagined they would by this age.
Especially in my business.
This episode is a very real, very unfiltered look at the patterns I've been recognizing around worthiness, control, trust, and receiving - and the realization that I might be ready to break up with the version of myself who's been holding on so fucking tightly to how everything needs to happen.
In this episode, I'm talking about:
Turning 34, using my birthday as a personal New Year, and navigating the gap between the life I imagined and the one I'm actually living
Feeling incredibly grateful for my life while still finding myself in the messy middle of some big shifts
Revisiting my worthiness wound and recognizing how often I've looked to my business to prove my value
What I've been learning about my undefined centers in Human Design and how that's helping me understand some of my patterns
Why the same limiting beliefs keep showing up even when you thought you'd already worked through that shit
Recognizing that taking action has become my safe place - and learning to question whether I'm acting from alignment or a need for control
Why intentionally doing LESS has felt so uncomfortable, even when I know it's what I need
Learning to trust myself, my work, and my business when things are going WELL - not just trusting that I can handle things when they're hard
My relationship with receiving support and challenging the belief that I have to constantly DO something to deserve more
How my eldest-daughter energy, perfectionism, over-planning, and need to be responsible for everything have followed me into entrepreneurship
The parallels between reclaiming my freedom after my divorce and what I'm now ready to reclaim in my business
Why I'm ready to draw a line in the sand, let go of the fucking chokehold I've had on my business, and rewrite the rules - even if I don't know exactly what that looks like yet
Because here's what I'm realizing: I don't have to wait for my circumstances to change before I decide to change how I'm showing up within them.
I don't have to keep proving that I'm worthy, that my work is valuable, or that I'm doing enough. I don't have to keep taking action just to feel like I'm in control. And I definitely don't have to keep following rules I created for myself that no longer serve the woman I'm becoming.
Maybe turning 34 is my line-in-the-sand moment. Maybe this is where I finally decide that I'm done doing business this way - even before I know what comes next.
And maybe there's a version of that decision waiting for you, too.
Where are you ready to draw your own fucking line in the sand?

There's a BIG difference between looking like you're running a successful business and actually building one that's profitable, sustainable, and supports the life you want to live.
And sometimes the things keeping you from making more money have a whole lot less to do with your actual numbers than you think 👀
This week I'm joined by Allie Blair Dorman, Bookkeeper, Business Consultant, and self-proclaimed cool accountant, for a conversation that goes WAY beyond bookkeeping. We're talking money, pricing, branding, boundaries, breaking old patterns, and why owning a business might just be one of the biggest personal growth journeys you'll ever go on.
Because your finances, your mindset, your messaging, and the way you show up in your business are a whole lot more connected than you might realize.
In this episode, we talk about:
Allie's unconventional journey into bookkeeping, learning finances the hard way, and eventually building her own business
How COVID became a turning point for her health, family, and entrepreneurship
Why so many of us grow up knowing absolutely nothing about money, taxes, debt, or investing
Learning to charge more, stop overworking, pay off debt, and build a business that actually makes money
The difference between looking successful and actually being profitable
Why Allie's approach is "bookkeeping AND" - supporting clients with the bigger business decisions and challenges behind their numbers
Understanding the difference between being able to afford something and whether it's actually a smart investment for your business
Why rebranding isn't just about getting a new logo - and why new visuals won't magically fix your positioning, messaging, or sales problems
What happens when you finally start charging prices that reflect the value of your work
How underpricing impacts your confidence, workload, and the kinds of clients you attract
Why Allie charges for discovery calls and how to decide whether that approach makes sense for your business
The difference between how we show up for low-ticket versus high-ticket investments
How entrepreneurship forces us to confront old patterns around money, relationships, boundaries, and self-worth
Letting go of feeling responsible for your clients' actions and results
Unlearning the roles we've taken on throughout our lives and breaking negative financial cycles
Why having support can help you separate emotions from business decisions
Why you shouldn't have to CONVINCE someone to work with you - and how your positioning + messaging should be doing the heavy lifting before they ever inquire
Sharing your pricing upfront so fear, shame, or old undercharging habits don't take over the sales conversation
Why your own business shouldn't always be the last thing on your to-do list
The importance of community over competition and building genuine relationships within your industry
Getting your business foundations in place BEFORE you feel like you can afford to
Why people buy from PEOPLE - and how being relatable, approachable, and judgment-free helps attract the right clients
Our thoughts on fear-based marketing tactics and why you don't need to scare people into working with you
The difference between pain-point marketing and dream-creation marketing - and how to communicate the actual TRANSFORMATION your work creates

What if selling more wasn’t about finding the perfect strategy or saying the perfect words... but actually fucking BELIEVING in the value of what you’re selling?
This week I’m joined by Sabrina Victoria, Business Mentor and Sales Expert, for a conversation about the energetics of sales, money, identity, receiving, and what happens when you fully own your power behind what you do.
Because making more money isn’t only about what YOU get to have — it’s about the value you exchange, the people you impact, the money you can pour back into your community, and what becomes possible when you stop shrinking your desire for MORE.
This conversation is your reminder that selling doesn’t have to mean convincing someone, performing, or becoming the loudest person in the room.
Believe in what you do. Own the fucking value of it. Let yourself receive. And stop waiting for someone else to give you permission to step into the woman you’ve already decided you want to be.
In this episode, we talk about:
Sabrina’s journey into entrepreneurship, her background in door-to-door sales, and how she eventually started her podcast + business
Breaking her leg at the beginning of COVID and what that season taught her
How Sabrina now helps women strengthen their sales skills while owning their power + passion
Why money is an energetic exchange — and how YOUR energy impacts your sales and income
The challenge of expressing your energy online versus in person and how to create more connection through a screen
What “money follows energy” actually means and how to create more momentum instead of unknowingly slowing it down
The energetic difference between playing to win vs. trying not to fail
Why you don’t have to be the loudest, boldest, or biggest personality in the room to be fucking GOOD at sales
What matters more than being loud: actually being passionate and excited about what you’re offering
The disconnect I’ve experienced between my real-life energy and how I was expressing myself online — and what I changed to close that gap
Using networking and community as an opportunity to practice talking about what you do and strengthen your sales skills
Reframing sales as an exchange of VALUE instead of simply asking someone to give you money
Why receiving more allows you to GIVE more — and why we need to stop acting like wanting more money automatically makes us greedy
Making the mindset shift from feeling uncomfortable “taking” to understanding the relationship between receiving + giving
Why so much of your money and sales work ultimately comes back to identity
What Beyoncé can teach us about embodying the higher version of ourselves (because obviouslyyyy 😂)
Why making the DECISION is often the identity shift — instead of waiting until some unidentified future moment when you finally feel qualified or ready
Giving yourself permission to DO THE DAMN THING before you have external validation
Removing words like “just” and “only” from the way you talk about yourself and your work — and CLAIMING YOUR FUCKING POWER instead
Why coaching, accountability, community, and having people who will lovingly call you on your bullshit can help you maintain the energy you want to lead from
Looking at your experiences through the lens of “what can this teach me?” instead of staying stuck in victim mentality
Sabrina’s experience leaning into feminine energy after initially being skeptical of it
Creating the masculine structures in your business that allow you to actually experience more feminine flow
Looking at what MORE money could make possible for your family, community, clients, and the impact you want to create
Why money amplifies who you already are — and wanting more of it doesn’t make you a bad fucking person
Investing in yourself, your support, and your business so you can actually build and lead the business you want

There are approximately 8 billion opinions about how you're "supposed" to parent... but nobody knows your kid, your family, or YOU better than you do.
This week I'm joined by Ashlyn Mesta, a Family Consultant who supports parents and families through life transitions with more clarity and confidence, for a really honest conversation about parenting, childhood, trauma, family dynamics, and trusting yourself through all of it.
And even if you're not a parent yet (hi, me 👋🏼), there is SO much in this conversation about understanding yourself, unpacking what you learned growing up, navigating hard emotions, and letting go of the idea that there's one "right" fucking way to do life.
This conversation is such a good reminder that you don't need to outsource every fucking decision to an expert, an Instagram post, a parenting book, or somebody else's opinion.
Learn. Ask questions. Get support when you need it. Take what resonates.
But at the end of the day, you know yourself. You know your family. And you get to trust that.
In this episode, we talk about:
How Ashlyn's experience growing up + her parents' divorce led her into family consulting
Why she quickly realized that supporting kids means supporting the entire family system
How so many of our beliefs, patterns, and ways of processing emotions begin in childhood
My own family's experience navigating childhood trauma and going to therapy at a young age
Why families often need individualized support beyond the resources they're automatically given
Remembering that parents are fucking HUMAN too - and knowing your own limits matters
Letting your kids see you work through hard emotions and regulate yourself instead of trying to appear perfect
Why the parent's needs matter too and finding compromises that support the entire family
How Ashlyn supports kids from early childhood through teenage years, specifically during periods of transition
Creating boundaries and safety measures without doing absolutely everything for your kids
Learning to trust what you've taught your kids as they become more independent
Why you should take parenting advice with a grain of salt - every kid is different
Supporting shy or slow-to-warm-up kids without trying to make them someone they're not
Why developmental milestones are guidelines, not the fucking law
How a child's environment can impact their behavior and development
Our thoughts on screen time, food, boundaries, and some of Ashlyn's spicier parenting opinions
Giving yourself permission to parent differently than the examples you've seen around you
Why becoming a parent doesn't mean your child has to become your entire identity
The importance of having honest conversations about parenting and having kids instead of only hearing "it's the best thing you'll ever do!"
Conversations my husband and I have had as we think about having a family someday - and what Ashlyn wishes she and her husband had discussed beforehand
Why knowing yourself before having kids matters - and how parenting will probably show you even MORE of yourself anyway
How becoming a parent can bring old trauma back to the surface in new ways (and why growing a business can do the exact same thing)
The reality that healing doesn't necessarily mean your old shit disappears forever - you get better at recognizing and working through it
Trusting yourself and what you're feeling in parenting, business, and life
Taking the time to make sure something actually feels aligned before immediately jumping into action

There’s a weird-ass space that exists when you know you’ve changed internally... but your external reality hasn’t fully caught up yet.
And sheeesh, have I been living in it 😂
In this month’s Real-Time Reflections episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of what’s been happening in my business and life lately - from wrapping up my free 4-week mastermind and launching a brand new private mentorship offer, to the response to my winter retreat, starting my own 6-month Human Design + Astrology mentorship, getting ready for Costa Rica, and navigating some very real mindset wobbles around the goals I haven’t hit this year.
Because as much as I believe in strategy (and you KNOW I fucking do), so much of what I’ve been experiencing lately has reminded me that growth requires more than knowing the right thing to do. There’s the strategy... and then there’s becoming the woman who can actually hold the standard, make the decision, trust herself, and lead from that place.
This one is a very real-time look at what expansion actually feels like when you’re inside of it - not six months later when you can package it into a pretty lesson and tell everyone how it all worked out.
In this episode, I’m talking about:
Reflections from my free 4-week mastermind, why I created it, and some of the shifts I’ve watched happen inside the room
The positioning + messaging work we’ve done alongside the energetic + embodiment work required to actually hold that positioning
Why I believe the magic happens when we stop separating the strategic and energetic sides of business
What this kind of support looks like inside Magnetic By Nature Mastermind - including a peek at our Tuesday Hot Seat Coaching
My unfiltered thought that sometimes you don’t need more eyes on your business - you need to figure out why the eyes already there aren’t converting
What I look at when a sales page or website is getting views and clicks without generating sales or inquiries
The positioning, messaging, design strategy, hierarchy + structure that can impact conversions
One of the biggest mistakes I see people make with sales pages
Why I only have 2 copy + design spots remaining this year for anyone wanting a new sales page or website before 2027
The response to my January winter retreat in Colorado and the unexpected idea it helped spark
Why I created THE SHIFT, my new 30-day private mentorship, and how I intentionally designed it to recreate some of the clarity, reconnection, coaching + movement that happens at my retreats
Why the end of the year can be such a powerful time to reconnect with yourself and get clear on where you’re actually going before throwing another giant fucking to-do list at January
The major pivot I’ve experienced in my own business - and why I’m seeing so many other women in a similar season of change
Connecting with so many incredible women IRL at Inevitable Live in Denver
How full life has been lately between my husband’s birthday, concerts, our upcoming Costa Rica anniversary trip, and intentionally creating a lighter client load around all of it
Starting my 6-month Human Design + Astrology mentorship with Nina Chin and how I’m already integrating what I’m learning into the way I support my clients
My intention to slow the fuck down toward the end of the year instead of immediately racing toward whatever comes next
Why I treat my birthday like my own personal New Year - and use it to reflect on who I’ve become over the previous year
Learning to sit in the uncomfortable space between instead of trying to force myself out of it
What it looks like when your internal reality has expanded before your external reality has caught up
The reality that I haven’t hit some of the goals I wanted to hit this year - and the mindset wobbles that have come with that
Why growth and expansion feel a whole lot like building a muscle: expansion, contraction, expansion again
Revisiting some of my own worthiness shit (thank youuuu, eclipse season 😂) and intentionally reconnecting with myself so I can lead from the energy I actually WANT to lead from instead of slipping back into default

There’s so much wisdom available to us when we stop trying to think our way through everything and actually learn to listen - to our bodies, our intuition, and what feels true for us.
This week I’m joined by Dr. Rachel Kapustka, chiropractor and co-owner of Realm Chiropractic, for a conversation that goes so far beyond chiropractic. We talk about entrepreneurship, athletics, motherhood, movement, embodiment, navigating unexpected seasons of life, and learning to embrace the things that make us different instead of wishing they were another way.
This conversation is such a beautiful reminder that you don’t have to follow someone else’s version of what life, business, health, or success is supposed to look like. You get to listen to yourself, stay open to what might be available, move through the whole messy-ass journey, and trust the wisdom that’s already there.
In this episode, we talk about:
How Rachel was “chosen by” chiropractic and her journey from chiropractic school to building a business with her husband
Rachel’s experience raising a deaf son, adapting their family life to support him, and misconceptions around the Deaf + ASL communities
My own experience growing up with a mom who is hard of hearing
Embracing what makes us unique and finding beauty in all of life — not only the parts we label as “good”
Staying open to what you can receive and living with a “this or something better” mentality
Selling their chiropractic practice in Durango, starting over in Denver, and eventually expanding into a second practice
The creativity, self-expression, challenge, and constant evolution we get to experience as business owners
How being an athlete prepares you for entrepreneurship - and why learning to enjoy the journey matters just as much as reaching the next goal
Rachel’s experiences with sports, injury, and discovering that she was, in fact, not invincible 😂
My own journey through sports before eventually finding dance
How movement helps us reconnect with ourselves, shift our energy, and process emotions we can’t always think our way through
Why there is so much more wisdom available to us than what’s happening inside our heads
How both of us incorporate movement and embodiment into the work we do
Rachel’s holistic approach to chiropractic care across all ages and her belief in collaborating with other healthcare providers
Looking beyond symptoms to understand what might actually be happening at the root
Honoring what feels true to YOU, trusting that so many of the answers are already within you, and feeling confident enough to fully embrace your own uniqueness

You don't become the next version of yourself - or your business - by doing everything exactly the way you've always done it.
This week I'm joined by Tina Floersch and Kailee Nauman, designers, co-hosts of the Branded & Booked Podcast, and two of the women behind Inevitable Live happening in Denver next week. We get into creativity, community, boundaries, collaboration, big-ass dreams, and all the personal growth that inevitably comes with building a business.
This conversation is such a good reminder that growth isn't just about finding the next strategy or working harder. Sometimes it's about dreaming bigger, letting people support you, protecting what matters, and giving yourself permission to evolve into the person your next level actually requires.
In this episode, we talk about:
Tina and Kailee's individual journeys into design and entrepreneurship
Trusting the journey and following where the energy is taking you
Why so many designers start with photography - and the beauty of being a multifaceted creative
How Tina and Kailee went from becoming friends to moving to Orlando, starting a podcast, and collaborating on offers and ideas
The importance of having entrepreneur and creative friends who actually GET IT
Building community with other women business owners and what I've loved about doing that here in Colorado
The unexpected amount of personal growth that comes with entrepreneurship
Why your branding gets to show people who the fuck you actually are
Our spicy opinions on personality-infused branding and creating an online presence that feels like YOU
Taking unnecessary pressure off yourself and your business
Setting boundaries with clients and protecting your time, energy, and mental health
The reminder that almost nothing is actually urgent - sometimes, it's just business
Why holding boundaries is ultimately better for everyone involved
Learning not to take feedback, criticism, or client responses personally - especially as a creative
How Tina and Kailee became involved in co-hosting Inevitable Live with Aubrianna Kay
What they're doing differently with the event and the community they're creating around it
Giving yourself permission to dream BIG without immediately asking, "Okay, but how am I actually going to do that?"
How leading in-person experiences changes YOU, too
Balancing business and your actual fucking LIFE - and creating the boundaries that allow you to enjoy both
How we accidentally recreate people-pleasing patterns inside businesses we literally started to create more freedom 😂
Asking for help, talking through what's coming up, and investing in support instead of trying to figure everything out alone
Why you can't DIY yourself to success
The identity shifts that come with growth

What if building a successful business had less to do with following the "right" path... and more to do with getting really fucking clear on what you actually want?
This week I'm joined by Tina Stoecklein, interior designer and owner of Silhouette Architecture + Interiors. We talk about trusting your intuition, defining success on your own terms, protecting your time and creative energy, and building a business that supports the work AND life you actually want.
This conversation is such a good reminder that you don't have to keep pursuing something just because it looks good from the outside. You get to change your mind, protect what matters to you, follow the little nudges, and keep redefining success until your business actually feels like YOURS.
In this episode, we talk about:
Tina's journey into interior design, trying entrepreneurship, going back to working for others, and eventually starting her own business again
What she learned from working closely with other small businesses along the way
How adopting her daughter shifted her priorities and strengthened her desire to create more flexibility
Why we wish creative degrees included a whole lot more actual business education
Being a HUMAN and a business owner instead of feeling like you have to choose between the two
Trusting your intuition, noticing the signs around you, and paying attention when the universe winks at you
Leaving a traditionally "successful" career and redefining what success meant for her
Intentionally marketing toward the projects and clients you actually WANT instead of simply taking whatever comes your way
Why messaging and positioning matter when you're trying to put the magic of what you do into actual words
The importance of creative freedom instead of being hired to recreate someone's Pinterest board
Why Tina loves being involved in both the architecture and interior design process from beginning to end
The similarities between her full-service creative process and my approach to branding, copy, and web design
Why we're so damn good at doing our work for everyone else... and somehow always put doing it for ourselves last 😂
Setting and holding boundaries to protect your time and energy
Why you don't need a "good enough" reason to say no
Giving yourself permission to make your own choices instead of building your business around everyone else's "shoulds"
Setting expectations with clients and refusing to say yes just because you want the money or don't want to disappoint someone
Getting clear on what YOU actually want your business and life to look like
Allowing your definition of success to change as you do
Enjoying what you've created NOW instead of waiting for "someday" to finally feel successful
What we both learned from hiring and managing teams
Saying no, changing your mind, and pivoting when something no longer feels aligned (even when other people don't understand it)
Never assuming anything in business, getting comfortable saying "I don't know," and communicating clearly without apologizing for giving people the information they need
