The Fresh Fruit Project

Today we’re chatting about a topic many of us were told growing up not to discuss in public: money and finances. With so many living paycheck to paycheck and the student loan get crisis on the rise, I'm pumped to chat with my friend and financial planner Jacinta Ingersoll DeVoes all about cultivating a healthy mindset around our finances and creating a few good habits to make that happen. So whether you’re a business leader, entrepreneur, operator, run a household, just graduated college, this matters for all of us.

Carrying around the weight that comes from being maxed out with debt is not how we were created to live. So hopefully this conversation makes you think, encourages you to ask questions and start exploring different habits you can create, whether it’s in your business or personally and understand wherever you’ve been isn’t where you have to stay.

This week’s episode is a little unique from our usual flow because I felt nudged to share some thoughts that have been on my heart a few days-and at The Fresh Fruit Project we're all about following the things tugging at our heart, right?

The word flourish has been following me around lately and as we head into Easter I've been thinking about what it actually means to flourish. 

That it's what we're ultimately meant to do. It's what God intended for us as His kids, it's why we have the Easter season but so many times life's circumstances and experiences can muddy up that belief. 

So when this time of year rolls around, we see and hear words like "Holy Week" and "He is risen" but may not have ever felt comfortable with getting close enough to understand. Or maybe we've been told we're not worthy of it. 

Which is why we're breaking that idea wide open in this mini solo episode, chatting about what Holy Week, why it's the ultimate party ANY and EVERYONE is invited to and what it means to FLOURISH! Yay!

You were hand made by love, with a purpose, to flourish, friend. And I hope these words serve as a reminder why. 

Today I'm chatting with commercial brand photographer Misty Webb about how she began a career in education but made a pivot into the corporate world, then eventually turned a life-long hobby into a full time, thriving creative business. So many of us have a dream or long time passion weighing on our hearts but think the time has passed to make it happen, we don't have the right experience or that we need permission.  

Also in this episode we chat about attracting clients, boundaries with work when it comes to family, why you should start before you're ready, lessons learned in entrepreneurship as well as faith and choosing to look for joy every day. 

Misty's story is a refreshing reminder that it's NEVER too late to start what matters and the only thing needed to get going is BELIEVE we're capable and worthy of creating change.

What's one of the biggest reasons you haven't started that passion project yet?

Asking for a friend...

Whether it’s a side business, writing that book or starting the non-profit that’s been on your heart, probably one of the biggest hurdles we see is not having enough time.

In this episode we'll break down the some of the top time saving tips to make the most of your day's minutes and some important mindset habits to help move your ideas into action WITHOUT all that grind yourself into the ground stuff.

So grab your favorite latte, pull up a chair and get ready because there's some good stuff coming at ya...

How do you decide which business, passion project or niche to focus on when you’re a multipassionate entrepreneur or creative?

In today's episode I'm talking with floral designer + content creator Leah Coleman of Ribbons + Blooms about exactly that PLUS the mindset for moving past imposter syndrome, cultivating your creativity, why your gifts and talents must be shared with the world and more!

Leah's spirit is even brighter than her delicious floral creations-you don't want to miss this one.
