Business Not As Usual with Megan Yelaney
If your January motivation is already fading, or you’re realizing that doing more isn’t fixing what feels off in your business: this episode is for you. In this conversation, I’m walking you through the exact Gap Finder process I created for my private mastermind clients to help them identify what’s actually holding their business back (hint: it’s usually not what you think). Because most entrepreneurs don’t have a motivation problem. They have a misdiagnosed gap. You might think you need more leads, better sales skills, or a new platform, but the real issue is often buried...

What if the reason your launches feel exhausting…isn’t how much you’re doing, but how fragmented your message has become? In this episode of Business Not As Usual, I’m pulling back the curtain on something I realized while prepping for my mastermind kickoff: 👉Last year, I filled four different offers but I only publicly marketed one message And honestly? It changed everything: from my energy, to my client results, to how demand shows up behind the scenes. In this episode, I walk you through: Why I stopped marketing multiple offers (and why it no longer works for most businesses) ...

Want to become wildly in demand this year: booked out, waitlist, people actually choosing you for your method and your approach? In this episode, I’m breaking down what it really takes to build demand (and why it has way less to do with going viral than you think). You’ll hear: The 3 things you need to become wildly in demand: story, positioning, and proof Why “more views” usually just creates more freebie-seekers (not buyers) The psychology of why people buy (it’s not because you’re qualified) Why your origin story builds trust before your audience ever sees your...

The post-holiday transition can feel harder than we expect, especially when you’ve had real rest, space, or slower mornings. In this episode, I’m sharing a very honest, behind-the-scenes look at how I’m getting back into work mode after time off, without the pressure to have everything mapped out or “perfect” on January 1st. We talk about: How to put the post-holiday slump into perspective (and stop being dramatic about it) Why doing the hardest, most needle-moving task first changes everything How I’m using simple focus tools like the Pomodoro technique to ease back in ...

What if your marketing didn’t just work… it actually made you feel more regulated?
In this longer, laugh-out-loud-and-then-get-a-lump-in-your-throat conversation, Meg sits down with Tasha and Brandon (Rules & Rebellion)—burnout business strategists who support heart-centered business owners with Complex Life Circumstances (their term: CLC).
If you’ve ever tried to follow someone’s “post every day + hustle harder” blueprint and felt your nervous system slam the brakes… this episode will feel like someone finally telling the truth out loud.
Tasha and Brandon share what it’s like to build a business while navigating layered realities—ADHD, parenting, perimenopause, chronic stress, flare-ups, caregiving, life transitions—without pretending discipline alone is the answer. They talk about why so many business strategies feel like “duct tape on a Lamborghini,” and what changed when they anchored their message in a clear framework and values-led positioning that actually fits real life.
We also get into tangible results: how they used a relationship-based private invite strategy to bring in $6,000 more in sales between December and January than ever before, and why the bigger win wasn’t just money—it was creating systems that made the business feel safer and more sustainable.
And if you’ve ever thought, “I can’t keep doing this… but I also can’t not do this work,” Tasha’s closing message is basically a mic drop.
In this episode, we cover:
-
What “Complex Life Circumstances (CLC)” actually means—and why it changes how you market and sell
-
Why most strategies feel like duct tape on a Lamborghini for high-capacity people with layered lives
-
The difference between stabilizing your nervous system vs just soothing it
-
How a framework gives you one clear way to explain what you do (and reduces daily decision fatigue)
-
What changed when they stopped “spraying the internet” with content and started selling with a clear process
-
How private invites work when you’re not trying to be templated, pushy, or weird
-
The underrated result: building systems that help you have a business and a life
-
Why your message can’t survive on “$27/month energy” if you’re here to make real impact
-
How autonomy inside a program creates better results than copy/paste “be like me” coaching
Memorable moments / quotes:
-
“It felt like duct tape on a Lamborghini.”
-
“It was energizing versus depleting.”
-
“I can’t not do this work.”
-
“You can’t survive on $27 a month if you’re here to deliver a real message.”
-
“Meg never asked us to be her—she asked us to get out of our own way.”
