What if building a six-figure business didn’t require selling your soul, chasing clients, or being glued to your laptop 12 hours a day? In this episode, Vicki sits down with the brilliant and deeply grounded Zee—a business and strategy coach who’s redefining what it means to grow with intention, serve with depth, and sell without desperation.
Zee shares the full, unfiltered story of how she went from an overworked corporate leader to an “accidental entrepreneur,” built a thriving business through genuine connection, and now supports coaches and course creators in scaling with clarity and calm. They dive into the hard moments too—what it looked like to pivot after a brick-and-mortar flop, how motherhood rocked her identity as a business owner, and why her $88K month only means something because of the way she earned it.
This is not another highlight reel. It’s a real conversation about energy, boundaries, emotional intelligence in sales, and the power of embodying certainty in your brand. Zee breaks down why she doesn’t chase clients (and never closes in the DMs), how your top-of-funnel messaging might be sabotaging your confidence, and why real strategy isn’t just about revenue—it’s about alignment.
If you’ve ever struggled with unattachment in your business, felt pressure to perform, or wondered how to scale without selling out—you need this episode.
