Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future
The Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future
The old ways of doing business—bro marketing, manipulative persuasion tactics, and chasing success at any cost—are breaking down. The Business Growth Architect Show is for those who are here to build what comes next.
Hosted by Beate Chelette, this show is for the Founders of the Future—the ones who have heard the call, felt the activation, and know it’s time to lead differently. You’re not just here to make money. You want to use your skill set to make a difference. You’re building a business around your purpose, your experience, and your desire to impact others. You’re a conscious leader who believes that alignment, resonance, and integrity matter just as much as systems, scale, and strategy.
In each episode, we speak with the people who are building the future we actually want to live in—innovators, business architects, thought leaders, and disruptors who share the mindset, methods, frameworks, and tools to build scalable, purpose-driven businesses. You’ll learn how to shape your intellectual property into a clear business model, how to grow without burning out, and how to lead with vision while staying grounded in what really matters.
If you’re done with outdated formulas and ready to build something real, sustainable, and rooted in who you truly are—this is your show.

Ep #205: Michele Novack: Laid Off, Broke, and Burned Out—Then She Built Something Better
Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:
What do you do when the life you built disappears overnight?
In this episode of The Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, Michele Novack shares the moment her career—and identity—came to a full stop.
After 30 years in the same industry, and now in her 50s, Michelle received the call no one is prepared for. The kind that ends a career in minutes and quietly dismantles the story you’ve been telling yourself about your value, your security, and your future.
Michelle didn’t have a backup plan.
What she had was fear, grief, and a question she could no longer avoid: Who am I without this?
This conversation explores what happens when your identity collapses and certainty is stripped away. Michelle’s story is not the pushed-harder-and-now -I-am-back story. Rather it’s the brutal honesty about surrender, confronting subconscious patterns, and choosing self-trust when there are no guarantees.
This episode is for anyone who is asking themselves - what now?
