🎙️ Guest Overview: Charelle Lans

Title: Business Strategist, Vision Strategist, and Founder of Vision Strategy Management (VSM)
Background: Industrial engineering degree; former Fortune 500 employee (e.g., Johnson & Johnson)
Mission: Helps individuals and businesses diagnose issues, define strategies, and drive performance.

💼 Core Concepts & Insights 🔍 What She Does

Acts as a “business doctor” for small to mid-sized businesses.
Helps clients uncover blind spots, streamline operations, and align personal purpose with business goals.

🧠 Key Philosophies

“Profit is in the patterns, not in the panic”: Sustainable success comes from consistent systems, not reactive hustle.
“You deserve to be paid, not just passionate”: Passion is important, but structured pricing and value delivery are essential for sustainability.
“Rest is a revenue strategy”: Rest improves clarity, leadership, and long-term business health.

🛠️ Business Strategy Tips 1. Pricing & Value

Research your market and understand the problem you solve.
Avoid underpricing due to emotional ties or overpricing without value.
Develop a pricing strategy that reflects your experience and the value you deliver.

2. Scaling Smartly

Avoid “scaling chaos” — building a brand without infrastructure leads to burnout.
Build systems, processes, and the right team before scaling.
A platform (not just a brand) is sustainable and scalable.

3. Vision Execution

A vision without a strategy and management is just a wish.
Use metrics to track progress and ensure your vision is in motion.
Surround yourself with:
- Mentor
- Sponsor
- Coach
- Network

🧩 Common Entrepreneurial Pitfalls

Wearing “hustle” as a badge of honor can lead to burnout.
Trying to do everything alone without a blueprint or support system.
Fear of sharing ideas due to intellectual property concerns — instead, stay ahead by always working on the next idea.

Uplift: People are divorced from themselves—She teaches you how to stay married to yourself.”

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Marsha Evans. Purpose of the Interview To highlight Marsha Evans’ work as a licensed professional counselor and founder of Willow Tree Counseling and Educational Center. To explore strategies for navigating life’s complex stages, breaking generational patterns, and building authentic relationships. To provide actionable insights for entrepreneurs and individuals on self-awareness, fear management, and relationship dynamics. Key Takeaways Understanding Complexity Life stages vary in complexity for each person—middle school for some, adulthood for others. Evans emphasizes listening and identifying what balance, peace, or contentment means for each individual. Early Awareness and Discipline At age 12, Evans set a goal to earn a scholarship, showing intentionality and discipline. Athletics taught her teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience, shaping her leadership style. Reading the Room Start by reading yourself—know your energy and intentions. Authenticity and confidence are key to building relationships and leveraging opportunities. Fear and Family Systems Fear often originates from family systems and generational patterns, not just personal experiences. Example: Parents’ limited worldview can project fear of the unknown onto children. Recognizing these patterns helps individuals break cycles and pursue their own paths. Generational Patterns & Healing Evans uses Genograms (visual family trees) to identify psychological and behavioral patterns across three generations. Acceptance of parents and family history is crucial for personal and professional growth. Rejecting parents = rejecting life and success; honor them while creating new narratives. Practical Steps for Change Build a relationship with yourself through solitude, meditation, yoga, and movement. Reduce stress (cortisol levels) to improve clarity and decision-making. Examine your money story—how family attitudes toward money shape your financial behavior. Relationships Romantic: Partners often mirror unresolved childhood issues; do inner work to avoid projecting. Professional: Maintain boundaries; emotional needs should not be placed on workplace relationships. Personal: Define roles clearly; avoid expecting friends to fill parental gaps. Consistency and Authenticity Success requires consistency with yourself before expecting it from others. Ask: Are your goals truly yours or influenced by societal expectations? Notable Quotes “I become a visitor in your world and start listening to your story.” “Reading the room starts with reading yourself.” “Fear is often not yours—it comes from your family system.” “You can’t reject your parents; when you reject your mother, you reject life.” “Consistency with yourself is key to achieving the results you desire.” “Your partner cannot carry the burden of your parents.” “People are divorced from themselves—I teach them how to get married to themselves.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
