5. From Chaos to Clarity: Inside a CEO's First 90 Days with an OBM

What does it actually feel like to hand off the weight of your business to someone who gets it? In this episode, Ashley Connell sits down with Sarah Fritsch, CEO of Moxie Space Organizing in Austin, TX, for a candid conversation about what life looked like before — and after — hiring an Online Business Manager through Prowess Project. Sarah runs a team of 10 organizers and came to Prowess exhausted, stretched thin, and leaving money on the table. Just months into working with her OBM, the results speak for themselves: a complete payroll restructuring as her team converted from 1099 contractors to W2 employees, a detailed forecasting spreadsheet built from scratch, and a 2% increase in gross profit — all because she handed over the problem, not just the task. In this episode, you'll hear: <ul class= "[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">How Sarah's OBM handled a major, high-stakes business transition in under a week</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Why the hiring experience through Prowess felt like a "concierge" — versus months of DIY recruiting</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">What it means to finally have a true partner in your business</li> </ul> If you've been wondering whether an OBM is the right move — or you're building toward becoming one — this one's for you.

4. Women Who Run Things: Why Not You?

Here's the truth nobody says out loud: the only thing standing between you and the business you actually want is the story you keep telling yourself about why it's not possible. Episode 4 is a mindset reset. Full stop. Ashley and Leah are done being polite about it — if you're sitting on skills that CEOs are desperately paying for, running other people's businesses for free, and still convincing yourself you're "not ready," this episode is going to challenge that directly. The ops brain doesn't just need better tools or a business plan. It needs to believe it belongs in the room. That starts here. This episode hits on: <ul class= "[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Why "not being ready" is a conditioned response — not a fact</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">How to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start building from exactly where you are</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Why this doesn't have to be all-or-nothing — and what starting smart actually looks like</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">The mindset shift that separates the people who do this from the people who almost did</li> </ul> You registered for this workshop for a reason. Something in you already said yes. Episode 4 is about getting your head aligned with what your gut already knows. The only question left is: why not you?

3. Women Who Run Things - Stop Saying Just

You didn't just help run that business. You didn't just manage the team. You didn't just figure it out. In this episode of this private series, Ashley and Leah get real about the word that's been quietly keeping ops-minded women small — and why it's time to drop it for good. This episode is your permission slip. If you've been sitting on the fence, waiting for someone to tell you that your skills are enough, that your experience counts, that people will actually pay you for your operations zone of genius. Ashley and Leah get into: <ul class= "[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Why "I just helped my husband run his business" is actually a power statement in disguise</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">How to recognize you're already further down the path than you think</li> <li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Why fulfillment at work doesn't stay at work — it changes everything</li> </ul> You registered for Women Who Run Things because something in you said yes. This episode is about trusting that instinct, owning what you bring to the table, and showing up to the workshop ready to build something that's actually yours. The detour? That's where the real adventure starts.
