In this episode of Life-Changing Money, I’m sitting down with Kelsey Knutson—former hairstylist turned business strategist and podcast host—to talk about the real path to building a business with clarity, confidence, and financial stability. Kelsey shares how she scaled to six figures in under a year, why confidence is the most underrated business skill, and how she helps creative entrepreneurs evolve from overwhelmed service providers to empowered CEOs.

Tune in to hear:

• How Kelsey pivoted from hairstylist to full-time business coach
• The most valuable (and cringiest) investments she’s made
• Why most creatives are stuck playing small—and how to shift
• The truth about retreat ROI and mastermind scams
• What business owners must do now if they want to survive post-COVID market changes
• How to audit your time and money like a true CEO
• Why Kelsey and her husband swear by monthly money dates
• The importance of building a personal brand with integrity and intention

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the power of business retreats—and how they’ve been one of the biggest catalysts for growth, connections, and income in her entrepreneurial journey. After attending over 30 retreats across the globe and hosting several of her own, I’m sharing the good, the bad, and the absolutely non-negotiable elements that make a retreat truly transformational.

From networking and collaboration opportunities to soul-filling experiences that deepen clarity and vision, retreats aren’t just a luxury—they’re a business strategy (and a tax write off).

Tune into hear:

• Why not all retreats are created equal—and how to tell which are worth it
• The biggest red flags to look for when choosing a business retreat
• How to make your retreat investment worth it—even if the experience disappoints
• Barbara’s go-to method for actually implementing what you learn at events
  The 5 things to consider when choosing (or hosting) a retreat
