Stop Chasing & Get More of the Life You Want Today with Ryann Gillen

·52 min·3 clips

Ryan says the balance is not work-life balance, but one foot in gratitude and one foot in desire.

1. Strategy Hour | Online Marketing for Business Growth features Ryann Gillen talking about wanting more of the life you want today. 2. Abigail Pumphrey hosts the episode for Boss Project, and Ryann Gillen appears as the guest and mentor on mindset, energy alignment, and strategic execution. 3. The episode asks how women can stop chasing external markers and build business from feelings like freedom, clarity, and peace. 4. Ryann says she had a 15-year corporate career before entrepreneurship started in 2018 and made its first dollar in 2019. 5. She explains that she began by teaching sales to entrepreneurs after coming from a traditional sales background with a 'follow the process' mindset. 6. Ryann says her first program had about 200 women, and the mixed results pushed her to look beyond tactics. 7. She describes a personal development path that started without a plan to teach it and later became central to her work with women. 8. Ryann says many women in business feel they do not fit a primarily male and masculine business paradigm. 9. She points to an average age of awakening for women between 38 and 42, which she connects to career reinvention. 10. Ryann says she works with both business owners and corporate clients who ask why success still does not feel like enough. 11. She says money used to be her benchmark, but that framing produced constant feelings of 'I am not enough' whenever she hit a goal. 12. Ryann says her benchmark changed in the last six weeks to commitments kept to herself, client results, and how she spends her time. 13. She says she now focuses on being 'a product of the product' and on helping clients get better results. 14. Ryann argues that the real desire is usually the feeling behind the object, not the object itself, and uses a boat as her example. 15. She says a boat is really about tubing with her kids, country music, and 'bologna and cheese sandwiches out of tinfoil.' 16. Ryann says people want to feel that money never dictates their decisions, which she translates into freedom, safety, security, clarity, and good ideas. 17. She says the tone is conversational and high-energy, with Abigail pushing specific questions and Ryann answering in long framework-driven explanations. 18. The format stays interview-based, with personal examples, client stories, and repeated reframes around gratitude, desire, and peace. 19. People building businesses who want a mindset-and-strategy conversation will likely get the most out of it. 20. People looking for tactical ads, funnels, or step-by-step marketing training may skip it.

As heard by us

A grounded discussion of freedom, clarity, and the balance between desire and gratitude.

Strategy Hour treats freedom less like a slogan than a lived condition shaped by safety, security, and clarity. Abigail Pumphrey keeps the talk anchored in the strain between wanting more and staying balanced, with peace cast as something concrete rather than a polite extra.
