126 | Want More Clients? Say This Every Week with Megan Yelaney
For the full transcript, notes, links, and more, go to: https://simplysquaredaway.com/126
You don’t need a viral story; you just need this strategy.
When I was introduced to Megan Yelaney and binged her podcast, I immediately knew we had to talk. She’s built multiple million-dollar businesses, all by leaning into one thing: her story.
In this episode, Megan walks us through her entrepreneurial journey, the pivots she’s made (from network marketing to health coaching to business coaching), and how she finally found alignment in her message by doubling down on her unique approach.
But the part I really wanted her to unpack for you? How your personal story, yes, even the one you think is “boring,” can become the most powerful tool in your business.
We dive into her 5-part storytelling framework (The Business Story Blueprint), how to craft your story in a way that gets clients saying “I need to work with you,” and why sharing it every single week is the simplest way to create demand.
If you’re a coach who struggles to stand out or second-guesses whether your journey is “inspirational enough,” this one’s a must-listen.
We also chat about:
Megan’s million-dollar group program strategy (and what she’d do differently now)
The behind-the-scenes of separating and reconciling her marriage, and how that impacted her business
Why she deleted offers, cut income, and got hyper-focused after becoming a twin mom
The exact script to share your story with a strong call to action
Why repetition is the key to a thriving business (even if you’re bored with your own message)
What You’ll Learn:
How to identify your “catalyst moment” and make it relatable
The 5-part storytelling formula that converts followers into clients
The biggest mistake most coaches make when telling their story
The two tools Megan swears by to stay organized (and how she uses them)

For the full transcript, notes, links, and more, go to: https://simplysquaredaway.com/124
What Emotions Are Hiding Behind Your Clutter?
Do you ever look around at your clutter and feel a wave of guilt, sadness, or just… stuck? You're not alone.
In part three of our four-part series, The Real Cost of Disorganization, we’re digging into the emotional roots of clutter, and it might get a little personal. Because let’s be honest: disorganization usually isn’t about laziness, lack of time, or not knowing where to start. It’s about what the stuff means to us.
I’m sharing what I’ve learned from my own clients, a hoarding specialist, and my personal experience to help you uncover what’s really going on beneath the surface. This episode is gentle, powerful, and honestly, might be the moment everything clicks.
We’ll explore:
How grief, guilt, shame, and perfectionism sneak into our closets, drawers, and digital clutter.
Why clutter is often your brain’s protective mechanism.
What your space might be trying to tell you.
And how to finally move forward with peace, not pressure.
I’ll walk you through a 3-step process to begin releasing the emotional weight behind your clutter. It’s simple, powerful, and something you can do right away, no bins, no fancy labels, just real emotional clarity.
What you’ll learn:
Why your clutter might actually be grief, shame, or fear in disguise.
The surprising connection between trauma and disorganization.
How to spot emotional roots like guilt, perfectionism, or control.
The 3-step method to identify and release emotional clutter.
Name the Emotion.
Switch from judgment to curiosity using questions like:
What is this space trying to tell me?
What story is this clutter holding?
What part of me is it protecting?
What season of life is this tied to?
Choose one compassionate action to take (and what that might look like).

You’ll also hear real stories from listeners that prove you’re not alone in this struggle, and more importantly, that change is possible.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
Why disorganization isn’t your fault (and what’s really behind it)

For the full transcript, notes, links, and more, go to: https://simplysquaredaway.com/122
This episode kicks off a powerful 4-part series I'm calling The Real Cost of Disorganization. You know disorganization costs you time and money (remember Ep. 120?), but there’s something even deeper, something sneakier at play.
It’s your stories.
The stories you believe about yourself… about your clutter… about what it all means. They’re keeping you stuck, overwhelmed, and maybe even avoiding that one drawer (you know the one).
In this episode, I read real, raw answers from listeners who replied to my email asking: What’s holding you back from getting organized? From shame to avoidance to ADHD and more, these stories are universal.
But they're also changeable. And I’ll show you how.
You're not lazy. You’re just believing a story.
Tune in to identify your story, find where it’s keeping you stuck, and hear tangible ways to start rewriting it.
This episode is part 1 in the series. Stay tuned each week as we unpack the emotional, mental, and financial cost of disorganization—and the freedom that comes when you get organized.
What You’ll Learn:
Why disorganization is more than just clutter
How guilt, shame, and avoidance sabotage your progress
What neuroscience says about your brain’s “avoidance mode”
Why being stuck can feel “safe” (but is secretly draining you)
How to rewrite your story so you can take powerful action
A mindset reframe that helps ADHD brains get organized
How decluttering could actually give you more energy (what!?)
Why your past attempts at organizing aren’t failures—they’re reps

Disorganization IS stealing money from your business!
Ever thought, “Eh, being organized isn’t that big of a deal”?
Spoiler: It’s probably costing you thousands. Or more!
In this episode, I’m cutting straight to it with a bold (and maybe uncomfortable) truth: your disorganization is flat out costing you money, and more than you think.
I’m sharing a story of a sweet colleague who said, “Tracy, I don’t care about finding files in seconds. I care about making money.”
She is so right. I needed this reminder.
But here’s the kicker: the only way you make more money is by NOT wasting time hunting for stuff, fixing mistakes, and letting opportunities slip because your backend’s a hot mess.
You make more money by prioritizing money-producing actions, executing an organized calendar, following the most efficient systems easily, finding things you need in seconds, and knowing you can confidently run (and scale!) your organized business.
We’re diving into the five hidden ways disorganization is bleeding your business dry, from wasted hours to missed sales. I’m also sharing what to do instead, so you can finally scale, sign more clients, and (yes!) actually enjoy that freedom you started your business for.
If you’re tired of your business being duct-taped together, this one’s for you.
What you’ll learn:
Why wasting time searching for files is literally throwing money away (I do the math for you!)
How being reactive instead of proactive means your competitors get your clients (Yikes)
The reason messy systems make you look (and feel) less trustworthy, and cost sales
Why you’ll hit a ceiling fast without streamlined systems
The sneaky ways disorganization is draining your profits on tools, contractors, and mistakes
The simplest first steps to get organized for real revenue growth

Is your calendar a mess? Are you running out of time to accomplish the most important tasks?
If you ever feel like your week is one giant scramble of client calls, last-minute tasks, tending to fires, and wondering what the heck you’re supposed to be doing next...you’re going to LOVE this episode.
I brought on Holly Haynes, a 7-figure business owner, productivity expert, and queen of batching, to break down exactly how she built her wildly successful business working only 8-10 hours a week (yep, seriously). She shares her signature CEO Week framework, how to create theme days, and why you absolutely need a “creative block” in your schedule.
We also dug into:
How Holly went from working a corporate job with twins in kindergarten to building a 7-figure business in just 5 years.
The simple formula of CEO Week: theme days + a creative block + a CEO day.
What happens when your tasks spill over into other days (hint: it’s not the end of the world).
The most common resistance people have when trying to implement theme days, and how to overcome it.
Why your business should feel a little boring if it’s working right (yup).
How she strategically added team members to shrink her calendar, not stretch it.
Simple ways she plans her days to avoid feeling scattered and overwhelmed.
I also share where the resistance that comes up, and where I realized my boundaries had shifted, and how I was inspired to make changes.
