Episode 14: Part 2: The Six Stages of Entrepreneurial Business Growth
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
In Part 2 of this series, I’m continuing the conversation around the six stages every business moves through and the leadership evolution required to successfully navigate each stage of growth. As your business grows, your role as a founder has to evolve. The strategies, habits, and decisions that helped you build your business are not always the same things that will help you scale it. In this episode, I’m breaking down the final four stages of business growth: Toddler, Teenager, Young Adult, and The Zone, and the mindset shifts required to move from being the person who does everything...

Episode 13: Part 1: The Six Stages of Entrepreneurial Business Growth
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
I’ve learned that every stage of business growth requires a different version of you as a leader. Just like parenting, your role evolves over time. The way you lead your business in the beginning is not the way you lead a million-dollar company, a growing team, or a business designed to give you your life back. In Part 1 of this two-part series, I’m sharing one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned from working alongside hundreds of founders: businesses don’t outgrow strategy first, they outgrow leadership. I’m breaking down the first two stages of business evolution, Birth and...

Episode 12: Your Business Can Only Grow as Far as Your Operating System
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
Last week, I released a 7-part series on operational excellence, and the response was incredible. So many founders reached out saying these conversations completely shifted the way they think about growth, leadership, and building a business that doesn’t rely on them for everything. So, I wanted to bring the entire series together in one place. In this episode, you’ll hear all seven parts back-to-back as we dive into the systems, leadership, and operational frameworks that I’ve seen transform businesses over the last decade of working alongside hundreds of founders as they’ve crossed...

Episode 11: Growth Doesn’t Break Businesses. Weak Infrastructure Does.
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
If you’ve ever felt like your business is growing, but you’re carrying more stress, more responsibility, and less freedom than ever before, this episode is for you. Today, I’m sharing Day 1 of our five-day SPARK Leadership Intensive, where I dive into one of the biggest shifts every growing practice owner has to make: realizing that sustainable growth isn’t about working harder, it’s about leading differently. In this session, I’ll walk you through why so many successful businesses hit a plateau, how leadership, not demand, becomes the biggest growth constraint, and what it really...

Episode 10: If You Want to Be a Great Leader, Be a Great Follower
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
Most leadership conversations focus on what founders need from their teams. But in this episode of Business on Top, I want to flip the script and talk directly to employees, emerging leaders, and team members who want to grow their careers, increase their impact, and become indispensable within their organizations. One of the most valuable lessons I learned climbing the corporate ladder was this: if you want to be a great leader someday, you first need to learn how to be a great follower. In this episode, I share what I’ve learned from both sides of the table, as an employee who worked her...

Episode 9: You Are the Guarantee
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
If there’s one thing entrepreneurship has taught me, it’s that there are no guarantees. Not in hiring. Not in growth. Not in leadership. Not in life. In this episode of Business on Top, I’m sharing one of the most important mindset shifts every founder must make if they want to reach their next level: stop searching for guarantees and start becoming one. Over the years, I’ve worked alongside hundreds of entrepreneurs navigating employee turnover, cash flow challenges, competitive threats, leadership loneliness, and unexpected setbacks. What I’ve learned is that the founders who...

Episode 8: Your Addiction to Being Needed Is Slowing You Down
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
One of the biggest leadership lessons I’ve learned is that business growth doesn’t require me to become more essential, it requires me to become less essential. For years, being the person everyone relied on felt like a badge of honor. I answered every question, solved every problem, and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. That mindset helped me build my business, but eventually it became the very thing slowing it down. In this episode of Business on Top, I’m sharing why I believe one of the most common blind spots for high-achieving founders is the addiction to being needed....

Episode 7: Don't Just Learn, Activate
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
Most founders are not lacking information. They’re lacking activation. In this episode, you’ll hear Part 1 of our Provider to CEO Panel from ALT, featuring POP Leadership Academy members Jill Canes, Shannon Morrow, and Dr. Jill Goodman. Despite leading different businesses in different markets and stages of growth, they share a common thread: a commitment to investing in their leadership development and becoming the CEOs their businesses required them to be. We explore one of the biggest growth barriers business owners face: confusing knowledge with transformation. From conferences...

Episode 6: Bombing Season
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
In this episode of Business on Top, I’m talking about something I believe every founder eventually encounters whether they realize it or not: bombing season. This conversation is all about the seasons of business growth and why some of the most powerful leadership decisions are not about adding more… but about refining, simplifying, eliminating, and protecting what actually creates momentum. I share a recent conversation with one of my longtime clients, a multi seven-figure founder, who found herself in a season of strategic subtraction. Closing locations, ending partnerships,...

Episode 5: Never Outsource Your Financial Intelligence
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
In this episode, I’m diving into a conversation that I believe more female founders need to be having: financial intelligence, financial leadership, and why you should never outsource your awareness around money. As more women become primary breadwinners, scale businesses, and generate significant wealth, I think it’s incredibly important that we learn not just how to make money, but how to understand it, steward it, protect it, grow it, and direct it intentionally. In this episode, I share some of my own financial mistakes as a founder, the mindset shifts that changed my relationship with...
info_outlineWelcome to 2022 leader! I am fired up and on a mission that is bigger than ever, with a purpose that is ignited by impact, and fueled by a vision that is focused on iconic transformation … and that is to help another 100 inspiring and intentional women cross the next million dollar milestone in their business this year through the coaching, programming, and curriculum that our team at KLC has spent the past several years developing, refining, and perfecting for fierce founders and leaders in the aesthetic wellness space.
As we at KLC get ready to embark upon a new year with a fresh perspective about what’s possible, today I want to bring to you insights I’ve gathered as I’ve spent the past several months and really into the past year, researching and interviewing dozens of the top leaders in AW (aesthetic wellness industry) about the state of the economy, industry consumer trends, and forecasts for what’s to come for women owned businesses around the globe. This intelligence is something that has guided the decisions we have made heading into this year regarding who we work with, how we work, and what kind of programs we offer.
What we discuss today aren’t simply going to be the clinical trends you’ll see, but instead the more valuable insights into the overarching business strategy and philosophies going into this year that will help guide the choices you make about how you market, sell, and package your services- and to whom you may choose to offer them to.
We are entering a new era in our economy and our industry is primed for growth. But only the strongest will survive. It’s going to take working smarter, focus on getting better and more deliberate in the way you approach your business as a leader, and transitioning your role in your business from overworked employee to well directioned CEO. This is a year of rebalance, restructure, and rejuvenating. If this is resonating with you and you are looking for a partner to help you through the process this year, I’m your girl. We are your team. You can learn more about what it's like to work with us by heading to klcconsultants.com/join and filling out a brief application. It’s a few questions that we will ask to ensure that we are the right company to help you achieve your goals. Then we will set up a call to discuss your specific vision and chat about which program might be the best fit for you. It’s truly no pressure so if you are even considering finding a business coach and guide this year, now is the time leader.
Tune into this year’s kickoff episode to get ahead of these trends, capitalize on opportunity, and build the business and live of your dreams. You deserve it.
