Our culture tells us from an early age what working with other women and for other women will be like. There can be jealousy, competition, alienation, and more, so beware.

This is called female rivalry, and it impacts women entrepreneurs too. But female rivalry is complex. It's hard to put your finger on how it shows up because it's subtle. Luckily, my guest today specializes in this topic and helping women overcome it.

I've been talking a lot on the podcast about feminine energy and the role it plays in wealth creation and business building. For so long, women entrepreneurs have played by the same rules as our male counterparts, unknowingly denying this tremendous power in each of us to lead, manage, and generate wealth. My guest today is the epitome of embracing feminine energy and using it to grow a massive 8-figure business. Michelle Bosch is a badass entrepreneur, investor, mom, and proud first generation immigrant. Together with her husband, Michelle created The Land Profit Generator Program to help others grow their generational wealth through land investing. Keep reading Michelle's entrepreneurial journey started with focusing solely on KPIs, metrics, and numbers. While she still has a strong ability to analyze numbers in a business, she also shows up with immense compassion. Today, her journey includes making time and space for her intuition, for flow, and for her feminine energy. In this episode, Michelle and I talk about the power of shifting from a transactional mindset in business to a more transformational one. Michelle shares her story of immigrating from Honduras and how her late father's investment paved the way for her career in investing. KPIs are always important, but as you'll hear today, taking quantum leaps internally is just as important for building wealth. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: An example of how harmonious growth can yield the same results as forced growth. 3 quantum leaps Michelle took to build tremendous wealth. How Michelle created and grew her passive income. Why exploring your whys for building wealth is so important. How Michelle describes her relationship with money. Why money has a neutral charge.

Have you ever noticed how most advice about growing a business is externally oriented? We go out to find new markets; we go out to get feedback. While I still stand with those strategies, I also think that looking outwards is only one part of the equation. There is massive value to be found when you do the internal work to grow your business. My guest today has built her business by doing the opposite of what most business advice says and instead, took a deeply personal and internal approach. I find her journey so incredibly inspiring and fascinating, I just knew I needed to have her on the podcast to discuss it. Keep reading Bethany Webster is a feminist author and transformational coach who also happens to be a graduate of The Incubator.

Bethany shares her story of building a meaningful, rich business that feeds her creativity while also providing a financial fortress despite her challenging upbringing. We dive into some pretty deep topics like emotional safety and mother-daughter work, and I hope that this conversation will inspire you to consider the internal work you need to do to grow your business. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: How Bethany learned to lean into the internal places that feel scary. Bethany's evolution as an entrepreneur, writer, and teacher. What the mother wound is and its four levels. How the mother wound manifests itself. What happens when you start telling yourself the truth at the most basic level.
