You built something that made sense for who you were then. But somewhere along the way, you outgrew it. "Still in Progress" is about the hidden cost of staying in a business, career or identity that no longer fits, and what it takes to evolve without burning everything down. Hosted by Brittany Cates, it’s for women navigating changing ambitions, visibility, identity shifts and the "messy middle" of figuring out what fits now. Expect honest conversations, fresh perspective and practical ways to make clearer decisions about what comes next.Brittany Cates | Business Evolution Strategist Economics Leadership Management & Leadership

  • Credentials vs. Connection: What Actually Gets Clients to Say Yes (with Alex Theordor)
    20 Oct 2026

    Alex Theodore spent years as a psychotherapist before motherhood pushed her toward a different kind of work: copywriting for healthcare practitioners.

    She didn't leave her clinical training behind.

    She translated it.

    In this conversation, Alex breaks down why so many therapist and healthcare websites read like a resume instead of an answer to what a patient is actually afraid of.

    We talk about how she uncovers a practitioner's real point of difference (hint: it's rarely their degree), why "warm, open, non-judgmental" isn't a differentiator anymore, and how she knew (in her body, before her mind caught up) that it was time to leave clinical work altogether.

    If your website has ever felt like it's underselling what you actually do, start here.

  • How to Know You're Not Actually Lost, Just Still Becoming
    13 Oct 2026

    You've rebranded. Renamed. Rewritten the bio for the third time this year.

    And somewhere in the middle of doing it again, a quiet, exhausting thought creeps in: what if I'm the problem? What if I just can't figure out what I'm actually building?

    You're not the problem. And you're not behind.

    In this episode, Brittany walks through her own version of this — 4 podcast names, 4 pivots, and the moment she finally understood what she'd been missing the whole time:branding was never the point.

    What she does is bigger than that, and there's a difference between chasing the right name for something and actually growing into who you're becoming.

    If you've ever wondered whether "still figuring it out" is something you should have outgrown by now — this is your permission slip to stop asking that question.

  • When You Treat Everything Like It Matters, Nothing Does
    6 Oct 2026

    You treat every element like it's essential — the extra tagline, the fourth call to action, the decorative squiggle nobody will remember. And that instinct to keep it all is exactly why nothing lands.

    I've been sitting with why AI-generated graphics bother me so much, and it's not that they're ugly. It's that nothing was ever cut. Everything technically fits, so everything stays.

    And that's the same thing that happens when we build our own brands without deciding what actually matters: we keep adding because we're scared of what we'll lose if we choose.

    This episode is about subtraction — why it's the one move a machine can't make for you, and why the willingness to lose something is what makes a brand feel human again.

    The page isn't supposed to hold everything you know. It's supposed to hold the one thing you've actually decided matters.
