    In the debut episode of The Business of Preschool Podcast (The Bop Pod), host Chelsea Reue delves into the fundamental concept of "Finding Your Why." Chelsea shares her personal journey and the inspiration behind starting this podcast: to empower preschool owners with bold strategies for building profitable businesses that support their best lives.

    Drawing from her experience as a sales agent with an insider’s perspective on the childcare industry, Chelsea highlights the struggles many preschool owners face, from financial challenges to physical and mental exhaustion. She underscores the gap in the industry where businesses are often treated like charities rather than the profitable ventures they should be.

    Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own reasons for starting their preschool businesses and to consider whether their businesses still serve their needs and those of their families. Chelsea discusses the definition of insanity—doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results—and urges preschool owners to embrace change and innovation.

    In this episode, Chelsea also addresses the importance of unapologetically aiming to provide a good life for oneself and one’s family, challenging listeners to dig deep and rediscover their why. She recommends Simon Sinek’s book, Start with Why, as a valuable resource for reconnecting with one’s purpose.

    Tune in to gain insights, inspiration, and practical advice on how to realign your preschool business with your core motivations and ensure it serves your current and future needs.
