The Money Walk: Your New Favorite CEO Habit for Clarity, Content, and Cash
If you’ve ever felt stuck, scattered, or like your best ideas only come after the meeting is over — this is for you.
I’m Katelyn Rhoades, business coach, podcast host, and mom of two, and today I’m sharing the single most powerful routine I’ve added to my week — and it’s completely free. I call it the Money Walk.
You’ve heard of a “hot girl walk,” right?
Well, a Money Walk is the CEO version — designed to unlock creativity, clarity, and cash flow.
Let’s dive in.
What Is a Money Walk?
A Money Walk isn’t about steps.
It’s about strategy.
It’s when you intentionally take a walk — not to hit a fitness goal, but to move the needle on your business. No laptop. No notes. Just you, your AirPods, and a podcast episode that fuels your business brain.
I started taking these walks in between client calls or after school drop-off — just to clear my head. But I noticed something…
💡 I’d come home with content outlines, launch ideas, even entire podcast scripts.
These walks became my secret weapon.
When I stepped away from the screen, I could suddenly see my next move.
And now? They’re a non-negotiable part of my weekly routine.
Why I Swear by Money Walks
As a mom, entrepreneur, and creative — there isn’t always time to sit down with a whiteboard and silence. But I can carve out 20 minutes to walk the neighborhood. And that’s where the magic happens.
Here’s why I believe every CEO (especially busy women building brands) needs a Money Walk:
It clears the mental clutter
It replaces doom-scrolling with intentional strategy
It turns passive learning into actionable insight
It realigns you with your future self, not your current overwhelm
Some of my most profitable launches, digital offers, and Reels content started as voice notes on a Money Walk.
You don’t need fancy gear or perfect timing — you just need to show up.
