The New Age CEO Podcast
Welcome to The New Age CEO Podcast with Anna Nichols, founder and CEO of the Spiritual Business Incubator, where we explore what it really takes to build a purposeful, profitable, and sustainable business in the new age.
This podcast is for mission-driven entrepreneurs, coaches, healers, creatives, and visionary founders who know they’re here to build something bigger than themselves. Inside each episode, Anna blends practical business strategy with Human Design, energetics, leadership, spirituality, nervous system work, wealth consciousness, and aligned entrepreneurship to help you grow a business that supports both your mission and your life.
You’ll hear honest conversations about the journey from solopreneur to CEO, building aligned offers and sustainable systems, scaling without losing yourself, leadership in the new paradigm of business, and creating legacy-level impact through your work. From strategic planning and sales to Human Design, Gene Keys, astrology, and energetic alignment, this podcast bridges the practical and the spiritual in a grounded, actionable way.
If you’re ready to stop forcing outdated business models and start building a company that feels deeply aligned with who you are, The New Age CEO Podcast will help you step fully into your role as the leader your business needs next.

144. Is Your Business Model Serving Your For NOW or For FOREVER?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
So many founders are hustling for “right now”, cash flow, quick wins, the next launch, without asking the question that changes everything: Will this business still serve me and my mission years from today? In this solo episode, I share what I’ve been seeing in recent Human Design readings and strategy sessions: brilliant, heart-led entrepreneurs building patchwork offers, chasing momentum, and waking up misaligned… not because they don’t care, but because no one taught them to plan for forever.
I’ll walk you through how to zoom out, name your true mission, and reverse-engineer a business model that honors your Human Design, your life, and your long-term vision, so your actions today compound toward legacy, not burnout.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn
- Now vs. Forever: Why optimizing for today without a future lens creates misalignment later.
- Mission First: A simple contemplation to surface what you’re truly here to build.
- Design-Driven Strategy: How to apply your Human Design to choose scalable, sustainable models.
- Avoiding Patchwork Businesses: Common traps (band-aid offers, “just for now” pivots) and how to course-correct.
- Foundation for Legacy: Practical steps to align your current actions with your 2-, 5-, and 10-year vision.
When you build from your mission forward, and let your Human Design inform the model, you stop solving for “right now” and start compounding toward a business that feels good, pays well, and lasts.
If you’re ready to move beyond the next-sprint mindset, this one’s your roadmap.
