Today’s episode of Community is a powerful one as Kristina is joined by entrepreneur, author, and business coach Jana Boyko for a conversation that is equal parts insightful and soul-nourishing.

Jana shares her honest journey from working in corporate advertising to taking the leap into entrepreneurship at 25. She gets deep and shares how a failed business partnership led to her finding her footing as a business coach and co-founder of a guided journal company.

Tune in to hear:

• What it really means to be an authentic entrepreneur.
• How to know when hustle turns into self-abandonment.
• The difference between manifesting and actually taking action.
• Why doing things the scrappy, old-school way still works.
• Why your personal growth is just as important as your business growth. 
• And the magic that happens when you slow down, get quiet, and reconnect with what you actually want.

If you’re in the early stages of building a business, navigating burnout, or needing a reminder that you don’t have to hustle yourself into the ground to be successful, this episode is for you!

Today Kristina sits down with one of her favourite people and the world’s newest best-selling author (we're calling it now!) Carly Ottaway!

Carly is the Founder of Web of Words, a marketing agency recently celebrating 10 years in business, and a woman who is redefining success on her own terms. In this powerful conversation, Carly shares her journey of writing her first book which came out today, Coming Home: The Path to Your Favourite Self and Permission to Do It Your Way.

This is a project that’s been three years in the making and is sure to change the way you think about yourself and your story. What started as a soulful calling turned into a transformational experience of coming back to her most authentic self, through motherhood, business, and healing from life’s challenges.

In this episode Kristina and Carly are diving deep into:

• How Carly went from hiding behind her clients’ stories to boldly telling her own.
• Why you don’t need to know “the how” to get started on a big dream.
• The identity shift that comes with showing up fully in your purpose.
• How your story can be your most powerful brand tool.
• What it really takes to build a sustainable business aligned with your life.
• How to nurture your network and allow yourself to receive support.
• Why it’s never too late to pivot, expand, or come home to who you truly are.

This conversation is for anyone who’s been sitting on a dream, who’s afraid to start, or who needs the nudge to trust their story and do it their own way!
