Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future
The Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future
We are over-optimized, over-scheduled, and running on empty. Every moment has to be productive. Every system has to scale. And yet founders everywhere are crashing — their health, their relationships, their mental wellbeing paying the price for a way of building that was never sustainable to begin with. The old systems are coming down and good riddance, but that leaves a real question on the table: what do you build instead?
The Business Growth Architect™ Show: Founders of the Future is where that question gets answered. Hosted by Beate Chelette, The Growth Architect™, this show exists for founders who want to stop forcing and start flowing — to build something that serves their clients, sustains their life, and grows through alignment and resonance rather than strain. We talk to founders in the messy middle, founders who just hit rock bottom and knew something had to change, and founders who came out the other side with a different way of doing business entirely. Because the truth every guest on this show has lived is this: it starts from the inside. Because change is an inside job.
🎧 Listen in and join the conversation shaping the future of business.

What happens when a mother of seven and a fearless serial entrepreneur—someone who has built 11 companies, and lived life in constant forward motion—suddenly finds herself on her own deathbed for 70 days?
In this episode of the Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, Holly Porter reveals the 70-day battle that dismantled her identity and rebuilt her purpose from the inside out. Intubated twice, stripped of all five senses, and suspended between life and whatever lies beyond it, Holly experienced near-death visions and spiritual directives that changed the course of her life and business.
She shares the moment her ancestors appeared urging her to fight, the unmistakable voice of her mother telling her it wasn’t her time, and the clarity that ultimately led her to create Retreat R&R and her nonprofit Adventure Bucket Wish.
Life may decide when you break. But only you decide what you become afterward. Hear what Holly brought back with her — and why it might change the way you navigate your own turning point.
If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, or questioning the direction of your life or business, you want to check out Holly’s SHIFT framework to help you navigate your life changes.
