Today’s guest is the talented and absolutely hilarious Sarah Baumann. Sarah is an illustrator based in Austin, Texas. As a college junior, she started an Etsy shop in her dorm room as an experiment and found she loved the hustle of small business. She grew her shop until graduation where she took it full time and never looked back. She now has about 50 active wholesalers and sells her products on Etsy, her own website, and Amazon. She loves her Giant Greyhound, Moose, lots and lots of color, and creating products that celebrate hometowns. I met Sarah at a conference a few years back and we really only had one or two interactions and I've never forgotten her since. There’s two things that make me not forget Sarah- one of them is she is freaking hilarious- I think we just sat next to each other at a conference for like two seconds but she really left an impression. And the other thing is she had such a cool niche in what she did. She makes these really cool illustrated maps out of people’s hometowns and I will just never get over it. Enjoy our chat! 

Today’s guest is my favorite little nugget, Hope Taylor. Hope is a senior portrait and wedding photographer based in Charleston, SC. She’s also an educator and speaker who shares weekly content on her YouTube channel and is passionate about helping entrepreneurs build businesses they love. This girl is a business powerhouse. You would not believe the knowledge that this girl carries. I'm so pumped to have her on the pod today. We’ve traveled the world together and now we’re back on the pod for a little reunion. Enjoy!

Today’s guest is the ever-so-talented and one of my really good friends, Rachel Traxler. Rach is a destination wedding and elopement photographer, making photos a warm, joyful and connective experience. She’s a Type 7 enneagram, so her heart for spontaneous adventure is BIG. Even though she lives in a small Wisconsin town of 600 people, she has been able to market herself to travel the world, all while doing what she loves. This girl is no joke and you are about to LOVE today’s episode all about marketing yourself in the destination market, so let’s dive on in! 

I am so pumped to switch things up just a little bit today and bring a new kind of guests. We’re bringing on Sam, who goes by The Sam Plan on instagram, and she is a body-positive influencer with a heart of gold and so much knowledge. I'm so excited for you guys to learn from her today and hopefully find a newfound respect for your body and love for your body that you didn’t have before. So many of the things she said had me with my “praise hands” in the air. It was like “finally I'm understanding some of these things on a deeper level.” Sam is a bodybuilder turned health and wellness coach who after years of working towards the ideal body, realized it was counterproductive to her goal of fulfillment, health and happiness. Something we can all relate to. Now she coaches others to uproot their confidence in their best selves. So today we’re talking about health, happiness, social media and all the things. Enjoy!

Today's episode with With Grace and Gold is all about working smarter instead of harder, setting up systems in your business, and finding a business partner that works well for you!

Today’s episode is all about my mental health journey and I will be talking in depth about my experience with anxiety and panic attacks. However, this episode is mainly focused on improving your mental health as a business owner so you can always refer to the show notes if that makes you feel more comfortable! I’m here for ya, sister.

Today I’m talking all about GOOOALLLL SETTINGGG! Can you  tell it pumps me up!? I could talk about goals alllll day. We are nearing the end of the first quarter so I want to ask you something. Those goals you set at the beginning of the year - how are those coming along? Be honest with yourself here. Have they been pushed aside? Maybe you are focusing hard on one? Where are you at?

How I went from being unorganized and afraid of tax season to knowing exactly what I need to do and even finishing early!
