The Part-Time CEO

The Part-Time CEO, hosted by Louise Stephens, is a podcast about building a business while navigating everything else life brings with it.

The Part-Time CEO is the next chapter of a podcast that began life as Strategise to Monetise. Same host, same heart — but a bigger, more honest conversation.

Louise is a business strategist, marketing mentor, and founder of Social Renegades — working with service-based business owners across New Zealand and Australia to grow their visibility and attract the right clients, without falling into the trap of doing more, pushing harder, and losing balance along the way.

Before starting her own business, Louise spent nearly nine years at Australia's largest travel retailer, moving from retail travel sales into recruitment and talent management, where the team she was part of was recognised with a National AHRI Award.

That experience shaped how she thinks about people, communication, and sustainable growth.

This podcast is for the business owner who is also a parent, a friend, a daughter, a carer, a volunteer, or someone simply trying to live a full life alongside a growing business. We talk about business seasons, burnout, visibility, leadership, mental health, client attraction, and what it actually looks like to build something sustainable without losing yourself in the process.

Real conversations. No hustle culture. No highlight reel.

Just honest talk about business and life, from someone who is living it too.
