  • 10: How to create effective content for your business in less time

    You're not an influencer. But imagine if you could create like one, meaning you're pushing out content like it's nothing and people LOVE what you have to say.

    Today, I have brought on content developer Laura Haley who helps travel creators reduce their overwhelm and trade in their content time for travel time or in your case more time for other aspects of your business. This episode is less about what you should post and more about how to create more impact, sales, and time for your business with the right content strategy.

    If you are stuck in the endless digital marketing to-do list in your business, after this episode, you are going to walk away just feeling this giant deep breath, knowing that you have an efficient system for your content and you can make the content you need to actually get that momentum in your business you desire.

  • 09: Making “the ask” less scary and 6 steps to pitch with confidence

    What does it actually mean to make the ask and why does it make us so nervous to pull the trigger? This was a heavily requested episode today because I think something can be so high on our hearts and we tell ourselves, okay, I want this so badly, but then it comes to actually asking we either don’t or don’t know how to successfully. So in this episode, I want to spill the tea on five foolproof steps to making the ask, dealing with rejection and how do you know when no is really a no? I know at the end of this episode, you're going to feel so much better about pitching and you can start asking and going for your dreamiest stretchiest goals.

  • 08: Differentiating your business and how to go against the grain in your industry

    Today, we have my business bestie and a woman who calls herself the Amazon Prime of web design. Our guest today is an award-winning brand and website designer and the founder of Honeywave Creative, Bailey Collins. Her accelerated turnaround times are setting a new standard in the design industry and revealing that major growth doesn't have to take months. With strategic planning and her unmatched creativity, it can happen in a single day, yes ONE day. 

    I'm so excited to dig into this concept of differentiation and what to do when you're going against the grain of how service-based and creative-based businesses have been for so long and how to stand out in your industry. 

    We also cover: 

    • Bailey’s genius service model and how she produces a website in a day
    • Bailey’s insane morning routines to get the work done and be her best for her clients
    • What white glove service really is (or should be)
    • How investing improves your own client experience

  • 07: Hustle vs. flow culture and finding your happy medium

    The business world is really divided on how we can achieve success. Is it in hustle culture where you work nonstop, take ice baths, ignore body cues, and sacrifice everything for the longer reward? Or is it flow culture where you sit on a beach all day and make epic amounts of passive income while drinking a margarita? 

    There has to be an in-between, some sort of balance. And guess what?! There is. So let's dig into this binary system of you're either hustling or flowing and find out where's the line, the toxicity (yep, spicy!) and the happy medium.

  • 06: Putting out fires as founders and all things grit with Carrie Sporer

    If we weren’t putting out fires in our businesses what would even be the fun in being a founder, right? Today I have the very talented Carrie Sporer from Swair who has created the Lulu Lemon of hair products on the market right now, but it hasn’t always been rosy and her team has seen their struggles. Today, we're going to talk about something that happened to her that honestly made my jaw drop.

    Her first major fire was during her launch phase, where three weeks before launch they had to recall a majority of her products causing a full-blown panic, but that isn’t where she threw in the towel and quit. Carrie and her partner Meredith Krill bounced back and were even featured on Good Morning America, Allure, Vogue and more.

    So this episode is for you if something has ever happened to you that's just absolutely devastating when you are on the precipice of something amazing, you are going to relate absolutely to Carrie’s story. So that's why we're going to be focusing today on grit and what to do when things don't go your way.

  • 05: Create breakthroughs, get better results, and take your time back as founders

    What would happen if you had white space in your calendar? Do you feel guilty if you are not "productive" and knocking off all your tasks on Google Calendar when you have free time? Today, I want to talk about taking back your time and your power so you can create powerful breakthroughs. I believe breakthroughs shouldn't just be shower light bulb moments, they should and can be intentional and that is with a little something called "CEO Days." I also want to share my storytime with one of my biggest breakthroughs when I jetted off to Antarctica far far away from my business and the world.  Let's get into it!

  • 04: Your brand voice is the not-so-silent secret to more sales. Discover it in 20 minutes.

    Today, we are diving into a topic that is so near and dear to my heart, because it is about brand voice. I have been working with companies on their brand voices for over three years now and it's one of my favorite things to watch a company go from bland, we're selling a product to a complete transformational offering where people need to buy your thing and then buy your thing again and stay with you for life.

    Your brand voice will separate you from the crowd *if* you invest in crafting it intentionally. And today, we are going to run through an exercise that will help you discover your brand voice in under 20 minutes. 

    We also will cover:

    • What your brand voice actually is 
    • How to craft a brand voice that feels human 
    • How to build your personal brand voice vs. a company brand voice 
    • How to get people to fall in love with how your brand sounds
