Carolyn Nolan, CFP and CEO, found herself juggling the roles of Visionary and Integrator within her company. She recognized the need for a dedicated Integrator and embarked on a journey that would transform the business.

In a lighthearted reflection, Carolyn shares the serendipitous tale of manifesting Jeana-Rae Kendall, COO and Integrator, and how they connected over their shared passion for reading and growth. 

In this episode, Carolyn and Jeana-Rae relate how their complementary roles have helped them navigate the challenges of growing a business while staying true to their Core Values. 

“Before hiring Jeana-Rae, I managed so many tasks because I had to. Someone had to get it done. But just because you can doesn’t mean you should. And at that point, I became aware of how much it was draining me and my creativity.” — Carolyn Nolan [14:43]

By embracing the Visionary/Integrator dynamic and creating a culture of openness and accountability, Carolyn and Jeana-Rae have found a formula for success in their business endeavors.

“When you focus on the long-term vision, you are clear on where you’re trying to go. And when you genuinely understand other people’s lanes, you start to see how you can create this masterful highway by connecting with the right people.” — Carolyn Nolan [33:30]
