Episode Highlights

Who is Abi Kinghan

• • Abi is a serial entrepreneur in her 20s who has figured out how to overcome what most senior entrepreneurs are still trying to figure out.
  • She is a CEO coach whose goal is to teach others how to create an impact in their business without missing out on their home life.
  • Abi also hosts The Over-Scheduled Millennial Masterclass, a 22-day series of classes.

Clarity from the beginning

• • Abi’s father, a direct influence, was an entrepreneur.
  • Abi saw other people’s parents struggling and trying to live paycheck to paycheck.
  • Abi always felt like she was destined for more, and there was more of a purpose in life.

Abi’s first business

• • It began when Abi was 17 or 18.
  • She was printing children’s clothing.
  • Straightaway obtained a storefront in the biggest shopping center in Europe.

The development of Impact

• • After a few years of starting her first business, people started coming to Abi for advice.
  • She started to see a rise in questions like: “How do I manage my business?” “How do I get customers?” “How do I understand what the customer wants?”
  • Most of the questions stemmed from fear, and Abi wanted to help entre/solopreneurs embrace change and risk.

Work-life before the jump

• • Abi was trying to juggle her 9 to 5, working with her dad, working in her own business, and maintaining side hustles. 
  • Although she wanted everything, Abi expresses she was burnt out and overwhelmed.
  • The vagueness and lack of clarity were keeping Abi from pursuing her passions.

Leaving the 9 to 5

• • After the overwhelm and burnout plagued her, Abi knew something had to change – and she knew the change was to focus on her passion.
  • The easiest thing for Abi when leaving her 9 to 5 was to reframe her mind and realize that a 9 to 5 job isn’t always the safest or more secure option.
  • Abi admits the most challenging part of diving into her own business was thinking ahead rather than waiting on the next task to be given to you.

Root causes for staying

• • Abi knows about root causes all too well and helps each client identify theirs.
  • She was a victim to fear of success, and that fear kept her from taking risks.
  • Most root causes come from the unknown. It takes time to work through these fears and allow yourself to be comfortable with them.

An interesting fitness journey

• • As a risk-taking individual, Abi decided to take a pole fitness class. 
  • Abi saw a gap to fill and started coaching pole fitness classes. 
  • The same mental strengths you need for pole fitness can also be exercised in your business or dreams. 

What are business owners over scheduling

• • Your time management and what you are doing daily should be making you happy.
  • Abi challenges you to think about your goals, where you want to be, and how your current calendar reflects that.
  • Reevaluating your time and how you spend it is the first step to living without regrets.
