Let’s talk about the Rule of Five Ones — because this might be the clearest business strategy I’ve come across in a long time. One problem. One target market. One offer. One platform. One year. That’s it. And apparently, it’s the method that’s helping everyday creators hit their first million — without a massive audience, without a team, and without 18 different offers flying around.

I’m sharing how I stumbled into this strategy (thank you, Maria Wendt rabbit hole), why it lit a fire under me, and how I’m reworking both Boss Girl Creative and House of Sugar Creek to align with this approach. I’ll walk you through my offer suite, what I’m building next, and how I’m using content to actually fuel this — not just fill up time. If your head’s been spinning with too many ideas and not enough traction, this episode is a grounded reset — and a reminder that maybe you don’t need a bigger audience… maybe you just need one really clear offer.

Ten years into business and still sitting with the weight of “why hasn’t it landed yet?” In this episode, I open up about the quiet grief that comes with building something meaningful that still feels invisible online. It’s a real-time reflection on the tension between being great at what you do and still wondering why it hasn’t translated — and a reminder that your work is still worthy, even in the waiting.

This week, I’m coming to you mid-chaos — recording from my warehouse, in a season that’s been anything but calm. If you’ve been quiet lately — whether from grief, burnout, or just life being too much — this episode is for you. It’s a real-time reflection on what it means to show up when you can’t really show up, and a reminder that quiet seasons still count. You’re not behind. You’re human. And your business? It’s still yours, even in the silence.

Overwhelmed, stuck, and not sure where to start? Yep, me too. In this episode, I’m talking about analysis paralysis—how it showed up in my literal garden, what it mirrors in business, and why waiting for the “perfect plan” keeps us spinning. If your to-do list feels like a wild, overgrown mess, this one’s for you. Let’s talk about how to move again, even if it’s just one small thing at a time.   RESOURCES MENTIONED

Grief doesn’t pause for deadlines — and when you’re a business owner, you don’t always get to either. This week, I’m pulling from personal experience to talk about navigating loss while still holding the weight of a business, why it’s essential to make space for grief, and how to give yourself permission to show up differently when life unravels.

Clarity isn’t a one-time win—it’s a moving target. In this episode, I’m sharing why I scrapped a finished funnel, what I built instead, and how real clarity often comes from what you won’t do. If you’ve been second-guessing your next step or stuck in misalignment, this one’s for you.

Struggling to make your Instagram bio actually do something for your brand? In this episode, I’m walking you through the real-time updates I made to mine—what wasn’t working, what finally clicked, and the strategy I’m leaning on to connect with the right people. We’re talking bio formulas, content pillars, and why this tiny space might be holding back your visibility more than you realize.

Feeling the summer slump? You’re not alone. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what my farm stand has taught me about marketing over the past six weeks—no funnels, no formulas, just real-life strategy that started with a couple of Facebook Marketplace listings and turned into repeat customers, word-of-mouth magic, and a three-figure week. From why relevance beats volume to the power of a good photo and what it means to truly connect with your people, I’m walking you through 12 business truths that snuck up on me while I was just trying to sell some cucumbers. If you’re craving clarity without the overwhelm, this one’s for you.
