193: What’s your favorite video game character? Why? Is it their slick ninja gear? Or their ability to shoot fire out of the palm of their hand?

191: Guess who’s back? Back again? Chelsea’s back…tell a friend…After an accidental hiatus turned perfectionism paralysis, Chelsea is back with a SERMON.She shares her decision to scale back on content output (specifically on social media) and focus on what feels good and exciting to her, including moving her newsletter to a monthly cadence, and making more space for podcasting (shocker!)She also drops a controversial statement: she doesn’t care about helping you hit $10k months or scaling to 6 or 7 figures. You’ll have to fast forward to about 20 mins in if you want to know why, and what her ethos is instead.You’ll also hear how to audit your time and evaluate what works best for you in your business, rather than trying to apply every strategy you learn from every internet guru who has a course.Chels wraps up with the importance of support, including having a sounding board to bounce ideas off of, someone to call you out on your BS, and the value of astrology and human design in making decisions.

184: Social media has made it easy for us to not only express ourselves and connect with each other, it’s also helped businesses and brands reach success by going viral. Hi TikTok!But what happens when our mental health suffers, or we can’t keep up with algorithm changes, or we just plain hate the platforms we’re on? We’d rather poke our eyeballs out than make another Reel pointing to bubbles, yet we get on and draft a video week after week. How can we get off this hamster wheel, or better yet, find alternative solutions to these problems?In this episode, Chelsea talks to Johanna Renoth, a serial entrepreneur and business advisor, who invites entrepreneurs to reflect on their relationship with social media and encourages them to make choices for not only the betterment of their health but for their business.On this week’s episode, Chelsea sits down with Johanna to discuss: How Johanna’s brands Bye Social Media and Log Off Live More developed. The challenges and downsides of fame and celebrity culture. Why is virality so exciting? The impact of social media on our mental health and well-being. What kind of media are you consuming on a daily basis? How to use social media to help your business without burning yourself out. Instant gratification on social media and how distraction affects business owners. The importance of having a marketing strategy.“You're paying for social media with your mental health, with your ability to focus, with your sanity, with the quality of your sleep, with also the hours and energy you invest that you could probably invest…in other sectors of your business. And I'm not here to tell anyone who's listening to this go off socials entirely, but just reflect: to what extent do I really need to be on there?” - Johanna RenothCONNECT WITH JOHANNA: byesocialmedia.com logofflivemore.com johannarenoth.com Johanna’s PodcastCONNECT WITConnect with Chelsea:🪐 Pitch Perfect: the visibility immersion using strategic pitching to get you in the right rooms to shake shit up. $300 off until April 13th!☄️ SUPERNOVA waitlist: the thinking lab for the deep thinkers, world-builders, and curious visionaries who see futures that don't exist yet. 💻 Website🍿Popcorn Club: Monthly meet-up to debrief TV, movies, and the zeitgeist📜 Footnotes newsletter filled with rabbit holes💌 The Art of the Ask Podcast📱 IG: ⁠@chelseariffe⁠🧵 Threads: @chelseariffeSupport NFNTW: Your donations help cover costs of running the show; you can help fund NFTNW right HERE. If you're unable to donate financially, share it.
