Entrepreneur School

By: Kelly Sinclair
  • Summary

  • The Entrepreneur School Podcast shares strategies and stories of being an entrepreneur, and what it takes to run a business while raising a family. Host Kelly Sinclair is determined to change the narrative of what success looks like. Success is subjective here. This is a space where we encourage you to follow your dreams, do the work and acknowledge the challenges along the way. It’s for: → The ambitious mother who wants to create a legacy for her kids. → The goal-oriented parent who values time freedom and flexibility so that they can be there for the school concerts, hockey games and dance recitals. → The woman who’s trying to make it all work without burning out or missing out along the way. Kelly is an award-winning brand and marketing strategist. Visibility maximizer. Small-town Canadian girl. Mom of 2 girls (who couldn’t be more different). There’s more to entrepreneurship than just marketing strategies and business models. You’ll learn all about that here. And, we will talk about mindset, lifestyle tools and habits just as much. This show is all about supporting emerging and early-stage entrepreneurs on the journey from solopreneur to CEO, while wearing all of the other hats in life. It’s for business owners who want to grow their brands online using digital strategies and creating digital products or programs. And most importantly, this podcast is intended to create a movement around pursuing passions, making an impact and finding joy in the journey of raising a family and running a business.

  • How I’m Really Feeling After 100 Podcast Episodes!
    Nov 19 2024

    Wow, 100 episodes. Hitting record on this one feels surreal. When I started this podcast, I didn’t fully grasp how much it would impact my business, my confidence, and even my community. Reaching this milestone has me feeling proud of the journey and impressed by the sheer consistency it took to get here (and trust me, there were days when life tried to throw every curveball it could). But mostly, I’m grateful—for the amazing guests, for the lessons learned, and for you, my listeners, who have made every episode worth recording.

    In this milestone episode, I’m sharing the biggest ways podcasting has transformed my visibility strategy and why I believe it’s one of the most powerful tools for building your personal brand, growing your audience, and creating connections that drive your business forward.

    I’m spilling it all in this episode:

    • Why podcasting is one of the best tools for building brand authority and establishing thought leadership.
    • How podcasting helps you grow your network and create opportunities for collaboration and visibility.
    • The confidence-building benefits of creating long-form content and how it translates to bigger stages and business growth.
    • Why hosting a podcast is a key strategy for entrepreneurs looking to grow their audience and create consistent visibility.
    • Actionable tips for podcasting success, including optimizing your reach and repurposing content.
    • How guesting on podcasts can amplify your visibility and help you connect with new audiences.

    Take Action:

    If this episode inspires you to explore podcasting—or to maximize it as part of your visibility strategy—be sure to share it with two friends who could use a boost in their business. And hey, slide into my DMs with your best millennial mom moments or TV recommendations—I’m always up for a good laugh or a new series to binge!
