Well… we did it. Season three of Bold Women in Business is officially wrapped. Here are my final thoughts:

Season three was practical, deep, strategy-heavy, and you loved it. But I realized something… I missed the intimate, cozy, coffee-chat energy we had in previous seasons. So, some things will be shifting in season four.

We’re keeping the strategy, but we’re bringing back deeper connection: video episodes, bigger conversations, guests who are near and dear to my heart, and growth that feels aligned, not forced.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing:

• My favorite guest conversations (and why they mattered)
• What focusing on super practical content taught me
• Why we’re taking a short break between seasons 3 and 4 (hint: rest is strategic)
• What my new “Bold Bite” mini-series is all about
• The big changes coming in season four
• And the brand partner I’m ridiculously excited about

Whether you’ve been here since episode one or you just found your way into the hive, I’m so grateful for your support. Hope you love this one as much as I did.

Three years in business, one beginner’s luck high, one “hit by a freaking brick” year, and a whole lot of earned wisdom in between.

In this episode, I’m sharing five lessons I’d hand straight to my baby Year-One self – the stuff no one really warns you about when you launch a new business.

Here’s what I’m talking about:

• Why word of mouth is NOT a strategy
• What consistency really means
• The real cost of working with bad-fit clients
• How investing early in help changed everything for me
• The long road of trust building

If you’ve relied too heavily on word-of-mouth, ghosted your own marketing, or said “yes” to a client you knew wasn’t it, these lessons are for you.

If you’ve ever stared at your website bio, elevator pitch, or Instagram profile thinking, “Why is this so hard to explain?” you’re not alone. Most creative entrepreneurs struggle to put the magic of what they offer into words.

In this episode, I talk about why intangible, transformation-based work is so damn difficult to put into words, and why trying to perfect how you describe what you do is the wrong starting point.

I walk you through the biggest traps I see service-based business owners fall into and explain why your differentiation lives in your identity pillars.

I also break down:

• Why two people can offer the same service and attract completely different clients
• How your identity pillars become the foundation for your messaging, content, and brand voice
• The questions I ask every single client before we touch a website, offer, or content strategy
• Why attracting the right people also means allowing the wrong ones to self-select out

This episode is about getting radically clear on what drives you so your message finally clicks.

If you rolled your eyes at yet another New Year's resolution episode in January, I feel you. But this isn't that. In this episode, I share why a year of “successful” growth made me slow down and rethink everything.

2025 was a really good year for my business. It was also really freaking hard physically and personally. So the changes I'm making this year? They're about protecting what worked, letting go of what drained me, and finally giving myself permission to do the creative work I've been putting off.

In this episode, I'm walking you through:

• How I'm evolving my offers (hello, Bold Content Collective cohort 2!)
• Why I'm aiming to double my 2025 revenue (and what that actually requires)
• The scary-but-necessary team changes I'm making
• How I'm protecting my physical health and creative pursuits this year
• What I'm letting go of: perfectionism, control, and the belief that I have to do it all myself

Whether you crushed your 2025 goals or barely survived them, this episode will help you reflect on what's actually worth carrying forward and what needs to stay in the past.

Do sales calls feel like a performance? Or worse, a threat? That doesn't mean you're bad at sales — your nervous system just thinks you’re in danger.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jen Liss, a somatic coach, breathwork facilitator, and host of the unapologetically named podcast F**k Around and Get Paid. Jen explains why selling activates our fight-or-flight mode, what dysregulated vs. regulated sales really look like, and how to stop selling from desperation, pressure, or self-preservation.

Here’s what we’re talking about:

• Why sales feels terrifying (and why it’s not a mindset problem)
• How dysregulated selling creates dysregulated buyers
• The difference between generosity and over-giving
• Why ethical selling starts with nervous system safety
• A ridiculously simple pre-sales ritual that actually works (yes… it involves shaking your hips)

If you’ve ever felt pushy, awkward, desperate, or “off” when talking about your offers, this episode is definitely for you.

I had one of those travel days where the plan didn’t just fall apart… it fully combusted. Delays, curveballs, the kind of chaos that usually sends my inner control-freak into overdrive.

But somewhere in the mess, I got smacked with the reminder I always need: you can control your actions, not your outcomes. And the tighter you grip the plan, the less room you leave for creativity, connection, and the “wait… this is actually better” moments you couldn’t have scheduled.

In this episode, I’m sharing what that day taught me about letting go (without giving up), why disruption can be an unexpected invitation to grow, and how saying yes to the unplanned can open doors you didn’t even know were there.

I’m also giving you a behind-the-scenes update on Bold Content Collective, and why I rebuilt it to be doable for the busiest of you (because overwhelm is not the entry fee for building something big).

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why control feels safe, but may be blocking your best ideas
• The mindset shift that keeps you steady when plans change
• How to spot where you’re white-knuckling your business (and what it’s costing you)
• Why saying “yes” to something unplanned can be the thing that changes everything
• What’s new inside Bold Content Collective and how the structure supports consistency without burnout

If you’ve been feeling like you need a perfect plan before you can move, this is your permission slip to take the next best step anyway. So, where are you gripping too tightly right now, and what might happen if you loosened your hold?

This time last year, I told my business coach that 2025 was my make-it or break-it year. Either I hit my financial goal or I was shutting the whole thing down. I wasn't being dramatic. After two years where nothing was clicking, I needed something to change.

Fast forward 12 months? I hit my goal by mid-year (six months early), surpassed my former employee salary, built a team, and launched a coaching program. But I also went through grief, depression, and had to step down from meaningful work that was costing me too much.

In this episode, I'm sharing both sides of the story – the wins and what they cost – because if your business is 'successful' but you're suffering, that's not actually a win.

Here's what you'll learn:

• Why the 'make-it or break-it' decision actually worked (and how to make your own real decisions)
• The painfully simple strategy that changed everything: showing the f*** up
• How to know when you're hiding behind perfection instead of actually being visible
• Why you can love meaningful work and still need to step away from it
• The three lessons I'm taking into 2026 (that you can use too)
• How to build a business that supports your actual life instead of one that slowly kills you

If you've been wondering whether you should keep going with your business or if you're even really built for this entrepreneurial life, go give this episode a listen. And then tell me: What's the one real decision you're making heading into 2026?

If your Google Analytics dashboard makes you feel like you just bit into a lemon, you’re not alone. Most business owners either avoid their analytics altogether or stare at the numbers without knowing what the hell they mean.

In this episode, I’m joined by Amanda Webb, a digital marketing strategist and a self-proclaimed “Google Analytics geek,” who breaks down how to make your data make sense. Amanda shares her ACEE Framework — a simple, non-scary way to figure out what’s working in your marketing (and what’s not).

Here's what you’ll learn:

• Why traffic isn’t everything, and how 50,000 visitors doesn’t necessarily equal any sales at all
• The one new metric in GA4 that actually matters: engagement rate
• How to spot and fix a “leaky website” that’s losing you conversions
• Why you should change your data retention setting (yes, right now)
• When to DIY your analytics setup, and when to call in the pros

If numbers make you want to run for the hills, this episode will change your mind. So, go give it a listen — and then tell me which metric you’ll start tracking differently.
