How to Live a Non-Regrettable Life + Ask for What You Want (Even If You’re Scared to Fail) with Podcast Strategist & Digital Nomad, Chelsea Riffe
Manage episode 489507813 series 2573977
In this powerful and wildly relatable episode, Jess and Rye sit down with podcast strategist and storytelling expert Chelsea Riffe to unpack what it really means to live a non-regrettable life—and the fears, failures, and uncomfortable conversations it takes to get there. From asking for what you want (in relationships, career, and business) to pitching yourself like a pro, this episode is packed with tangible mindset shifts, hilarious real-life stories, and motivational gold.
✨ Key Topics We Cover:
- What living a non-regrettable life means (and why it's less about big wins and more about intentional choices)
- Learning to ask for what you want and the concept of the “third door”
- Dealing with rejection without spiraling (and building a nervous system that can handle more)
- Chelsea’s career leap from corporate sales to digital nomad & podcast coach
- Messaging and pitch mistakes to stop making ASAP
- How to start living with more confidence before you feel “ready”
- Why your “failure tolerance” may be the key to creating the life you want
- The underrated power of booking one-way flights, knowing your Human Design, and sliding into DMs
