The System for Everything

Feeling stuck in seasonal sadness? Maybe your cure isn’t in a supplement—maybe it’s in a suitcase.

In today’s episode, I’m talking with Sara Dunn—not about SEO, but about a totally different system that’s transformed her life: snowbirding. Yes, we’re talking about skipping winter entirely. Sara breaks down how she and her husband live in two states, manage two homes, and run fully remote businesses without losing their minds (or their mail).

Sara, the founder of Sara Does SEO, is a powerhouse wedding SEO strategist who’s helped her clients attract over a million visitors a year. But today, she’s sharing her personal operating system for something a little different: emotional outsourcing through geographic flexibility.

What you'll hear in this episode:

• The practical logistics of living in two places
• The emotional rollercoaster of seasonal transitions
• Why this lifestyle isn’t just for retirees

If you want to figure out your Enneagram type the fast way, just launch a small business. Nothing reveals your core fears like client emails, overdue invoices, and writing your own bio.

Today, I’m talking with Enneagram coach, author, and self-awareness cheerleader Ashton Whitmoyer-Ober—aka Enneagram Ashton. Ashton’s a powerhouse in personal growth: speaker, professor, and community builder who helps people actually use the Enneagram to make confident, values-aligned decisions in work and life.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why knowing your Enneagram number isn’t enough
• How to build your business to support (not sabotage) your energy and motivation
• Common traps and superpowers for each type in entrepreneurship

Have you ever felt like you're shouting into the void online, hoping for more than a like or a DM? You're not alone—and you're not doing it wrong. You're just building it backwards.

In this episode, I sat down with my real-life brunch bestie, Laylee Emadi—a conference host, coach, and the founder of The Creative Educator Conference—to talk all things community-led business. Laylee is my go-to example for what it looks like to serve from the heart while still growing a sustainable brand.

Here’s what we dig into:

• Why true community isn't about audience size—and how to tell the difference
• Common myths about community-led business (and what actually works)
• How community connection translates into real revenue and recurring sales
