7
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:32.529
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Thank you so much, Jill. I'm really happy to be here.
8
00:01:33.370 --> 00:01:38.980
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I loved your… The name of your book, it just feels like…
9
00:01:39.380 --> 00:01:44.539
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: the yummy space. I like spaciousness, and taking…
10
00:01:44.870 --> 00:01:53.500
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Taking space in our lives to be able to really focus on what we're doing here.
11
00:01:53.710 --> 00:01:58.040
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And to have the experience that we're here to have.
12
00:01:59.160 --> 00:02:01.819
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I just wanted to get that out.
13
00:02:05.860 --> 00:02:13.509
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Let me ask you the big question. What's the most significant thing, in your opinion, as individuals we can do to make an impact on how the world is going?
14
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:25.270
Celeste Frenette (she/her): In my opinion, it's being as ourselves as we can be. So, I believe that each of us is born with innate gifts, with innate wisdom, skills.
15
00:02:25.470 --> 00:02:48.069
Celeste Frenette (she/her): things that we're meant to pour out into the world, and so often, from a very young age, we're taught to suppress the things we love, to focus on the things that others around us say are practical, or make sense on paper to them. And so, it's, I feel, a small percentage of people who actually listen to that voice inside, and say, no, I'm gonna do what I feel, and very often we…
16
00:02:48.070 --> 00:02:55.570
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Build a life that looks like what somebody else wanted for us, and realize we've lost ourselves in it, and then later on in life.
17
00:02:55.590 --> 00:03:04.659
Celeste Frenette (she/her): come back to. What makes us come alive? Which is what pours this positive, nourishing, healing energy into the world.
18
00:03:04.940 --> 00:03:15.220
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yes, and I'm so excited that now is the time when people are actually slowing down enough, which goes back to the making space in your life so you can
19
00:03:15.530 --> 00:03:16.980
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: decide
20
00:03:17.310 --> 00:03:29.810
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: what feels right to you, and where you really should be going, rather than just being pushed along by the current that is the world that we live in. You know, you've got parents and teachers and…
21
00:03:29.940 --> 00:03:44.679
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: friends, because we get into friend groups that push us in a direction. You were once a nurse and a naturopathic doctor. I mean, those are things that are, like, strong currents that you get into, and you're just moved along this path.
22
00:03:44.820 --> 00:03:51.400
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So, what made you… step out of that stream into something different? Or is it different?
23
00:03:52.320 --> 00:03:55.769
Celeste Frenette (she/her): You know, it… I would say it's a different…
24
00:03:56.110 --> 00:04:01.219
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Different way of working in a similar field.
25
00:04:01.350 --> 00:04:12.500
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And so, as a nurse, I was working in palliative care, and I felt very much that if you imagine, downstream treatment being after everything's happened, then there's
26
00:04:12.500 --> 00:04:23.399
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Not necessarily a lot of movability, versus upstream, looking at prevention and looking at, let's tune into ourselves now, before our body starts to…
27
00:04:23.410 --> 00:04:34.089
Celeste Frenette (she/her): let us know that it's unhappy before our body starts to get really loud with physical symptoms. And it just inspired me to want to work a little bit more upstream
28
00:04:34.210 --> 00:04:37.050
Celeste Frenette (she/her): as just feeling like that was where I was called to be.
29
00:04:38.460 --> 00:04:44.930
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So, how does that play into what you're doing now? And do you want to explain how you help people?
30
00:04:45.080 --> 00:04:45.910
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, so…
31
00:04:45.910 --> 00:04:46.470
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: coach.
32
00:04:46.880 --> 00:04:58.220
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, so when I was a nurse, I remember I was working in palliative care with a lot of people at the very end of their lives, and just feeling like I wanted to be able to offer more. And, you know, as a nurse in the medical system, you're very…
33
00:04:58.220 --> 00:05:14.989
Celeste Frenette (she/her): rushed in terms of how much care you can offer each person, and I just wanted to be able to hear people's stories, connect with them deeper, offer something extra beyond my nursing scope of practice. And so that's what led me to naturopathic medicine, and I thought that that's where I'd stay.
34
00:05:14.990 --> 00:05:28.560
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And what happened is I noticed people coming into my practice, and they had seen everybody and tried everything, and nothing was moving. Nothing was shifting those physical things, or the mental-emotional things that they had felt really burdened by for years and years.
35
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:33.799
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And I would ask them questions that they had never been asked before, which is, what's your dream?
36
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:49.260
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And people would start to come alive, and there would be this life in their eyes, and this spark, and this energy as they'd start to pour it all out, and then at the end of it, they'd be like, nobody's ever asked me that before. And that just planted a seed.
37
00:05:49.280 --> 00:06:03.970
Celeste Frenette (she/her): That helped them to remember who they are, what they love, what they really want, what brings them joy, and they would start to take little step after little step in that direction, and I noticed that physical things began to heal.
38
00:06:04.070 --> 00:06:10.889
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And I thought, this is where I want to be. This is where I want to be doing my work every day, because I love this. That's what makes me come alive.
39
00:06:11.860 --> 00:06:20.029
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Love that. And it's so true, so… so often we go through life and nobody ever bothers to say, what do you want to do?
40
00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:21.310
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: not…
41
00:06:21.530 --> 00:06:28.729
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: you know, telling you what you're going to do. I think as parents, you know, I have lots of kids, and it was…
42
00:06:29.460 --> 00:06:46.279
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: it was something that happened to me when I was growing up. My parents would ask me, you know, what do you want to do? And I would say things like, you know, I want to just be a bum and travel the world. And they would tell me, no, you can't do that. Or, I want to get married and have a lot of kids.
43
00:06:46.700 --> 00:07:01.229
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: My mother didn't ever really want to have kids, and then she had 3 girls, and she wanted boys, and it was just like, she never got what she felt she wanted in life, and so she was really dead set on making sure that this didn't happen to us.
44
00:07:02.940 --> 00:07:08.459
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: that wasn't her life. I mean, she had her life to live, and… your kids…
45
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:20.440
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: have their own lives to live, and our job as parents is more to… and coaches, because these really do kind of equate, is to help them
46
00:07:21.900 --> 00:07:25.550
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Peel back the layers to what they do want.
47
00:07:25.750 --> 00:07:32.280
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And recognize that, you know, all things exist, and all possibilities exist.
48
00:07:33.930 --> 00:07:34.500
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah.
49
00:07:34.840 --> 00:07:54.230
Celeste Frenette (she/her): It really helps to have somebody who believes it's possible along with you, because I think even if our parents have a different idea of where they think we should go, or what they think we should do, or how we should go about it, they may not even have the capacity to vision that as something that could be done, because they can't consider it for themselves.
50
00:07:55.620 --> 00:08:00.999
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Exactly. I have one son that… he's… he's an amazing auto mechanic.
51
00:08:02.030 --> 00:08:07.249
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I, like… I want my car to work when I turn the key on.
52
00:08:07.250 --> 00:08:09.420
Celeste Frenette (she/her): That's all I care about.
53
00:08:09.420 --> 00:08:17.050
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: But this… this man, he's a man now, he… he just can look at things and see how they go together, and…
54
00:08:17.620 --> 00:08:22.860
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's just, like, it's an amazing gift, but… and he works in a field where
55
00:08:23.180 --> 00:08:31.339
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: People value this gift that he has, and so he's able to be who he… who he was made to be.
56
00:08:31.340 --> 00:08:32.940
Celeste Frenette (she/her): But I cannot…
57
00:08:33.220 --> 00:08:41.140
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I could never envision that for him, because, like, Not my ball of wax.
58
00:08:41.140 --> 00:08:45.680
Celeste Frenette (she/her): No, but I'm sure if he shared it with you, you'd be like, yeah, you can do that.
59
00:08:46.060 --> 00:08:51.140
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And I did. You know, he would tell me what he's doing, and it's like, yeah, go get it.
60
00:08:51.330 --> 00:08:51.830
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah.
61
00:08:51.830 --> 00:08:56.729
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I'm… I'm standing by, waiting to see what happens! I'm excited for you!
62
00:08:57.070 --> 00:08:58.110
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah.
63
00:08:58.510 --> 00:08:59.960
Celeste Frenette (she/her): That's beautiful.
64
00:09:00.290 --> 00:09:05.279
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It is fun. So, how do you work with people? Is it one-on-one? Is it groups?
65
00:09:05.760 --> 00:09:22.130
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Mostly now through group programs. I've really, let my one-on-one practice back a lot as I've expanded into doing things that can just help more people in a different amount of time, but, I do work a little bit one-on-one. I take on a few clients every quarter.
66
00:09:22.850 --> 00:09:24.810
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And… Yeah.
67
00:09:25.430 --> 00:09:25.694
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Bold.
68
00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:27.720
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So, you talk a lot about what
69
00:09:28.140 --> 00:09:36.030
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: about doing what's most aligned instead of doing more. What does that actually look like in day-to-day business decisions?
70
00:09:36.380 --> 00:09:41.560
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, so for me, if you imagine, for example, growing a business in the online space, you'll have
71
00:09:42.470 --> 00:09:52.399
Celeste Frenette (she/her): thousands of people out there telling you, you need to focus on this type of funnel, you need to focus on your email list, you need to focus on YouTube, you need to focus on Instagram, and it's so noisy.
72
00:09:52.400 --> 00:10:17.379
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Right? And you'll have some type of internal sense of where you feel drawn, or what feels like the most important thing to you. And you can build a 6- or 7-figure business without ever having certain ones of those. You might never be on YouTube, you might never be on Instagram, but you're gonna go where you feel called, and where you feel like your presence is needed. And so, my work is in supporting people to hear what it is that they feel of all of this.
73
00:10:17.380 --> 00:10:26.239
Celeste Frenette (she/her): discern, okay, of all of this information, which one is the right fit for me? Because everybody takes a different pathway to get where it is that they want to go.
74
00:10:27.690 --> 00:10:35.260
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: You know, that is so profound. There's so many ways to reach your ideal clients.
75
00:10:35.380 --> 00:10:37.650
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And your ideal clients…
76
00:10:37.920 --> 00:10:49.279
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: are ideal because they're perfect for you and what you're doing. Not everybody is called to work with everybody, and that's a beautiful thing, but
77
00:10:49.510 --> 00:10:50.940
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: your people's…
78
00:10:51.700 --> 00:11:04.619
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Congregate in certain spaces, and if you're trying to do all the things because some coach or guru told you, you need to be everywhere all the time, shouting from the loudest thing.
79
00:11:04.790 --> 00:11:07.100
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Then you're not being authentic to yourself.
80
00:11:07.540 --> 00:11:08.370
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And…
81
00:11:08.520 --> 00:11:14.479
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: your people aren't gonna hear you, because they're gonna be like, no, I don't want to be over there.
82
00:11:14.990 --> 00:11:15.970
Celeste Frenette (she/her): So they don't…
83
00:11:15.970 --> 00:11:16.800
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: behind you.
84
00:11:17.940 --> 00:11:34.849
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, so just trusting yourself and believing that that connects with those opportunities, that connects to that community being built, wherever it is that you feel you need to go, or even in terms of the steps that you're taking in a business, you know, which digital product do you make? Well, which one excites you the most?
85
00:11:34.850 --> 00:11:40.340
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Which one do you have the most energy behind? And start there, because that's what people are gonna feel.
86
00:11:40.970 --> 00:11:45.559
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, and providing what people want, not what you think they need.
87
00:11:45.680 --> 00:11:51.610
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Which is… something that I've… Discovered in my life.
88
00:11:51.860 --> 00:11:53.750
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Because people want what they want.
89
00:11:53.940 --> 00:11:58.529
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And they usually want results, they don't want the program you're offering.
90
00:11:58.660 --> 00:12:01.219
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They want the result that you're promising.
91
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:07.630
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: then… That's… Being able to share that in a way that they can identify with it.
92
00:12:08.620 --> 00:12:23.960
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Which is, you know, it's so easy to say that, but when it comes into the practical application, it's really helpful to have somebody standing with you, saying, maybe tweak it a little more this way, or…
93
00:12:24.280 --> 00:12:25.399
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's great!
94
00:12:25.710 --> 00:12:28.650
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I totally feel that! You know, it's just like…
95
00:12:28.890 --> 00:12:33.700
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Instead of standing there by yourself going, I hope this works!
96
00:12:34.470 --> 00:12:36.530
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, absolutely.
97
00:12:36.990 --> 00:12:37.530
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah.
98
00:12:37.530 --> 00:12:41.879
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: a lot. And I think that's what really helps with communities.
99
00:12:42.060 --> 00:12:43.070
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I know…
100
00:12:43.070 --> 00:13:07.099
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: you're doing group coaching, but group coaching insinuates that you're having a group of people come together so they can help and support each other, as well as getting advice and coaching from you in terms of, you know, maybe you've tried this, but maybe somebody else in your group has tried something that's worked or hasn't worked, and they can share their experience.
101
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.340
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I just… I find it so…
102
00:13:10.610 --> 00:13:15.000
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Empowering to be in community with other people.
103
00:13:15.690 --> 00:13:21.989
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Absolutely. I feel like everybody is amplified, right? Because we all bring all of our experiences to the table.
104
00:13:23.310 --> 00:13:33.740
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And you have a program called the Soulful Entrepreneur Incubator, and I love it, because incubating is, like, it's that…
105
00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:39.210
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: The final cooking process for something to, like, burst into life
106
00:13:39.330 --> 00:13:44.910
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: and be self-sustainable. They just need a little bit of… of warming and
107
00:13:45.310 --> 00:13:55.020
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: cuddling and, you know, just to get them going. It's just, like, it's so… your… your terminology just, like, really strikes me as…
108
00:13:55.270 --> 00:13:58.330
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: yummy, because that's the best way to put it.
109
00:14:00.570 --> 00:14:05.779
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: So you want to talk a little bit about your… your incubator program? Yeah, that works?
110
00:14:06.610 --> 00:14:14.390
Celeste Frenette (she/her): I started it… it's called Thrive, the Soulful Entrepreneur Incubator, and I started it because what I noticed is that
111
00:14:14.400 --> 00:14:18.860
Celeste Frenette (she/her): We really help to make each other brave.
112
00:14:18.860 --> 00:14:40.359
Celeste Frenette (she/her): You know, we have that inside of us, but being around a like-hearted community where you can share what you're working on or what you're working towards, get feedback, know that somebody has your back as you're about to maybe step out and brave new ways, start doing videos for the first time, release a product, release a program, develop different parts of your business. It's really nice to
113
00:14:40.360 --> 00:15:02.300
Celeste Frenette (she/her): feel like you're not alone in that, because so many of us, especially if we work from home, we tend to be really isolated. And we might be creating and working on things all hours of the day or night on our own, not passing it by anybody else or having that support by anybody else. But for me, as I was growing my business, it was fundamental to me to have community around me and to be able to
114
00:15:02.300 --> 00:15:11.339
Celeste Frenette (she/her): say I wanted to share a personal or vulnerable story with the world, or a speech, or something like that, to be able to share it with a friend first.
115
00:15:11.610 --> 00:15:20.219
Celeste Frenette (she/her): who, even if I wasn't getting feedback from them, could just bear witness to it and hold space for me, so that, okay, I shared it with you, now I can share it with the world.
116
00:15:20.910 --> 00:15:25.600
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Just so important. And, you know, people look at you…
117
00:15:25.940 --> 00:15:31.440
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I don't know about you, but I know most of the people in my physical community
118
00:15:31.880 --> 00:15:33.820
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: they don't know what I do.
119
00:15:34.180 --> 00:15:37.850
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They have… they just can't relate to, like.
120
00:15:38.110 --> 00:15:42.479
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: being online, even having a podcast. I mean.
121
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.860
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I know people really well, but they don't… they don't…
122
00:15:47.310 --> 00:16:01.520
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They don't understand what it is to have a life online, and coaches and entrepreneurs that work online primarily, it's like a whole other aspect of your life.
123
00:16:01.900 --> 00:16:12.890
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: We used to go to offices when I was young, and you would work in your office, and you had an office community that was very separate from your personal community in most cases.
124
00:16:13.020 --> 00:16:23.419
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And then… Now we… we do this online so that there's, like… People don't… really recognize it.
125
00:16:23.750 --> 00:16:30.480
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, it's hard to wrap your head around, and I have that conversation with people so often where they're like, wait a minute, what exactly is it that you do?
126
00:16:32.030 --> 00:16:33.790
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And they either…
127
00:16:34.210 --> 00:16:45.310
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: they're just not in that space in their life, so they don't really understand. But there are so many of us who are online, and we do need each other, and…
128
00:16:45.980 --> 00:16:53.790
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's where you and your, program come in to help people. They're… but…
129
00:16:53.900 --> 00:16:59.550
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That's why I do what I do, is so I can showcase what… what's available to people.
130
00:16:59.550 --> 00:17:14.249
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: In terms of being online, and in community, and being able to support one another. Even if you're in the same industry, doing the same sort of things, or if you're doing something really super different.
131
00:17:14.250 --> 00:17:18.050
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's… It's a place… we're…
132
00:17:18.819 --> 00:17:24.829
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's not quite a marketplace, but it is a space where it's like, come here.
133
00:17:25.170 --> 00:17:31.690
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: tell people what you're doing. Tell them how you're doing it, and who you're doing it for, so that they can…
134
00:17:32.130 --> 00:17:34.660
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They can know that it's available to them.
135
00:17:35.080 --> 00:17:35.920
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yes.
136
00:17:36.710 --> 00:17:47.009
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, and so many of the things that people are doing, they're doing now because they saw somebody else, and that gave them that spark of possibility of, like, oh, maybe I could too.
137
00:17:47.850 --> 00:17:48.540
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah.
138
00:17:50.590 --> 00:17:53.460
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Exactly, and a lot of them have gone through things.
139
00:17:53.650 --> 00:18:07.179
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: personally, and they're just like, I don't want this for anybody else. I don't want anybody… I figured out how to do it in a way that… that helps… has made my life better, and I want to share that with somebody else.
140
00:18:07.250 --> 00:18:14.160
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: And so that they don't have to have that terrible experience that I went through. And just…
141
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:19.760
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's just, like, so many things that are available now that…
142
00:18:20.530 --> 00:18:25.479
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: maybe 10 years ago, really? Not so much. Women's health.
143
00:18:25.610 --> 00:18:26.769
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It's a big one.
144
00:18:26.930 --> 00:18:28.880
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: when I went through menopause, I…
145
00:18:29.670 --> 00:18:31.869
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I had my mom, who was…
146
00:18:32.620 --> 00:18:40.359
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: wholly unhelpful about the whole thing, because she just didn't know, because people didn't talk about it. But now people, women.
147
00:18:40.590 --> 00:18:42.619
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Older women are like, yeah!
148
00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:48.249
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: It sucks in the beginning, you'll figure it out, and it's actually kind of nice in the…
149
00:18:48.800 --> 00:18:57.410
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: After you get through the tough part. These are the things… some of the things you can do to make this… the transition smoother.
150
00:18:57.790 --> 00:19:02.970
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: That… That information probably was available, but it was…
151
00:19:03.310 --> 00:19:07.530
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Not to the extent that it is now, and it's…
152
00:19:08.090 --> 00:19:13.759
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: kind of like that with coaching. It's like, you know, there's… there's people around to help you.
153
00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:25.839
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Make the next step, or… or share what you're doing, and… and help you refine it so that it looks like it's gonna…
154
00:19:27.130 --> 00:19:29.540
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Have the intended outcome.
155
00:19:30.390 --> 00:19:36.459
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, absolutely. It's such a gift, the online world, in that way, because I feel…
156
00:19:36.460 --> 00:20:01.319
Celeste Frenette (she/her): It really helps to unshame things in a lot of different areas of life, where previously you may have felt very alone. Now, there are people who are going through the same thing, who are giving voice to it. They're saying, oh, for example, here is something that I'm experiencing in perimenopause or postmenopause, and you realize, oh, that's from that. I didn't even know, I just thought this was a weird thing I was experiencing, but now I have contacts.
157
00:20:01.320 --> 00:20:14.979
Celeste Frenette (she/her): I understand there are other people going through this, too. With all kinds of things, it feels that way. And certainly as an entrepreneur, too, as you see other people doing it, you realize, I'm not alone. There's a whole community of people out there.
158
00:20:16.620 --> 00:20:26.890
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Yeah, and it bridges… it bridges the gap between online and offline. There are a lot of businesses that are still brick and mortar that
159
00:20:27.190 --> 00:20:30.289
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: They… they need support, too.
160
00:20:30.590 --> 00:20:34.629
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: To… to come and have more of a presence online?
161
00:20:34.760 --> 00:20:37.600
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Because it opens up doors that…
162
00:20:37.840 --> 00:20:40.409
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Might have been a barrier in the past.
163
00:20:42.470 --> 00:20:49.980
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: I want to turn this around just a little bit, in terms of helping people find their purpose. Do you help people with that, too?
164
00:20:50.350 --> 00:20:51.350
Celeste Frenette (she/her): I too.
165
00:20:52.080 --> 00:20:53.739
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Yeah, for me…
166
00:20:54.060 --> 00:21:11.449
Celeste Frenette (she/her): I really believe that our purpose is to be as ourselves as we can be, that if that is all that we do in this life, we've accomplished our purpose. So that's just really being honest with yourself about, who am I? What do I love? What makes me come alive? What feels expansive? What…
167
00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:27.900
Celeste Frenette (she/her): really ignites that flame inside of me, and how can I be true to that, and choose that every day, and build a life around that, instead of trying to fit that into a big life that we've built that does… that excludes that.
168
00:21:29.020 --> 00:21:42.279
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Love that. And so, in your community, do you have resources to help people figure that out? I mean, who are your ideal clients, and how would they know that they're, like, the perfect fit for you?
169
00:21:43.020 --> 00:22:05.259
Celeste Frenette (she/her): So my ideal clients tend to be soulful or spiritual entrepreneurs. Some of them will have a holistic background, or just have a passion for things that relate to that world. Because I was a naturopath, I tend to attract a lot of registered nurses, medical practitioners, but also Reiki practitioners, spiritually-minded people, authors, artists.
170
00:22:05.260 --> 00:22:07.460
Celeste Frenette (she/her): People in the creative realm.
171
00:22:07.950 --> 00:22:11.309
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And What was your other question?
172
00:22:12.130 --> 00:22:18.170
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: How do they… how do they know where… To, like, move into what…
173
00:22:18.340 --> 00:22:21.410
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: to your incubator, say. I'm, like…
174
00:22:22.290 --> 00:22:34.280
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: would they… would they come to you if they're, like, just, like, multi-passionate, and they've got all these ideas, and they… they have a general idea of maybe I could make money with this?
175
00:22:34.370 --> 00:22:45.650
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Is that the entry point, or are you more interested in working with people who already know where they're going, but just need technical advice?
176
00:22:46.270 --> 00:23:06.389
Celeste Frenette (she/her): So, I would say… I would say there's some diversity there, which I love, because it creates more of a robust community. So there are some people who… maybe they've been in corporate for 20 years, and they just have suppressed parts of themselves, but they know they want to do something. Maybe they want to be a coach or a mentor, maybe they want to support people,
177
00:23:06.390 --> 00:23:07.700
Celeste Frenette (she/her): around…
178
00:23:09.480 --> 00:23:22.889
Celeste Frenette (she/her): energy healing, or things like that, gifts that they have that they've pursued on the side. Hobbies that they've done that are pursued on the side. Maybe they've been an artist all of these years, but they never thought that they could actually put their art into the world and build a life around that.
179
00:23:22.890 --> 00:23:37.359
Celeste Frenette (she/her): So, some of the people are those people who are now coming back, or maybe after being a mom and raising kids, you're coming back to who you are and what you love. And others have businesses out there, maybe they're already practitioners, maybe they're already doing well in their business, but
180
00:23:37.360 --> 00:23:55.530
Celeste Frenette (she/her): They feel like they don't have time for the life that they really want to live outside of that, so now it's looking at how can you streamline, and how can you, for example, move from exclusively one-on-one work to now offering group programs, or creating digital products that are going to be able to help people from all over the world, even when you're sleeping.
181
00:23:55.780 --> 00:24:07.829
Celeste Frenette (she/her): So people find me through a lot of the work that I do in sharing online on their various platforms, and I used to be… before my daughter was born, I was very…
182
00:24:07.830 --> 00:24:20.360
Celeste Frenette (she/her): active online and on Facebook. Facebook is actually how I built my business when I was starting. And it's been 6 years since she was born now, and I found I've moved more into Instagram and more into YouTube than other platforms.
183
00:24:20.590 --> 00:24:23.810
Celeste Frenette (she/her): But people find me through videos I do there.
184
00:24:23.830 --> 00:24:42.020
Celeste Frenette (she/her): And in the Soulful Entrepreneur Incubator, I have something called the Soulful Business School, which helps people to really refine what it is that they want. So, for those people, you can kind of pop in at any point in the program, depending on what you need. So, for those people who are just at the beginning of, what do I even want to do?
185
00:24:42.180 --> 00:25:01.350
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Then there's workbooks and videos and tutorials to help guide them through reconnecting to themselves. And for the people who are like, no, no, I've got it, how do I streamline this and move into group programs so that I have more time for my family, so that I have more time to travel, or to paint, or to do whatever it is that I want to do in that
186
00:25:01.350 --> 00:25:04.090
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Other time, then there's support for that.
187
00:25:05.020 --> 00:25:08.580
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Love that, love that. And how do people find…
188
00:25:08.760 --> 00:25:11.349
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Find you and get into your program.
189
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:15.330
Celeste Frenette (she/her): So… Usually it's word of mouth.
190
00:25:15.430 --> 00:25:26.389
Celeste Frenette (she/her): Or they've seen my video on a particular platform, and then they reach out, but through my website, celesteFurnett.com, they can access all of the different programs that I offer, and the incubator is one of them.
191
00:25:27.560 --> 00:25:28.320
Jill Hart-The Coach's Alchemist: Awesome.
192
