      Ep 126- Money Mindset Meets Strategy
      Feb 25 2026
      Money Mindset Meets Strategy: Scarlett Stanhope of The Biz Hippie There’s a reason you can be responsible, hardworking, and even “good with money”… and still feel tense every time you open your bank account. Because money isn’t only math. It’s memory. The way we dress, the routines that make us feel safe, the choices we repeat without thinking—so much of it is shaped by experiences we’ve had and messages we’ve absorbed over time. Money works the same way. Our spending, saving, earning, and avoidance patterns often come from places far deeper than a budget. In this episode of The Seed, I’m joined by Scarlett Stanhope of The Biz Hippie, who brings a rare combination to the conversation: strong financial logic (business, accounting, finance) paired with the deeper internal work that actually changes behavior. If you’ve ever wondered why you “know what to do,” but still don’t do it consistently—or why more income doesn’t automatically create more peace—this episode will land. What you’ll hear in this conversation Scarlett shares how her path shifted from a traditional business-school trajectory into coaching—and how she eventually found her niche by realizing something important: Many people aren’t struggling because they’re bad with money. They’re struggling because their relationship with money was shaped long before they had control over it. We talk about: Why money stress can persist regardless of income How childhood and generational messages quietly influence financial decisions Why “just make more money” is rarely the full solution The difference between surface-level habits and deeper patterns How abundance becomes practical when you connect mindset and strategy ScarletT’s framework: the internal and the tangible Scarlett walks through how she helps clients combine two things that are often separated: The internal work: beliefs, scarcity patterns, self-worth, safety, identity The practical work: tracking money, building foundations, aligning spending with goals Because real change happens when you can both understand your numbers and understand yourself. Takeaway worth sitting with Before you change anything, notice what’s already true: How do you feel when you check your accounts? What do you instantly say “yes” to—or “no” to—without thinking? What does “responsible” mean in your head, and where did you learn it? That awareness is not fluff. It’s the starting point for real control and real freedom. Free resource from ScarletT Scarlett shares a free quiz so you can identify your money mindset type and start recognizing your patterns right away.(Include your link in the show notes section on your site.)

      How to Start a Bookkeeping Business From Home (One Hour Bookkeeper with Melissa)

      If you’ve been craving a way to bring in income without sacrificing your family, your energy, or your sanity, you need this episode.

      Melissa from Busy Bee Advisors is back on The Seed, and her story is one you’ll feel in your bones—because it’s not just about bookkeeping. It’s about the moment you realize you’re allowed to build a life that fits.

      Melissa spent years in a demanding corporate role, barely taking time off. Then, while on a long-overdue vacation, she checked her voicemail and heard message after message of her boss screaming—blaming her for a mess she didn’t create. She made a decision right then and there:

      She quit.

      What happened after that (including a major running accident that forced her to slow down and rethink everything) led to the creation of Busy Bee Advisors, built from her dining room table with one simple goal: earn enough to contribute financially and be present for her kids.

      And she did. Fast.

      From there, Melissa built a bookkeeping business with real systems—then the pandemic made something crystal clear:

      The small businesses that survived were the ones that knew their numbers.

      That’s also when Melissa began training others, especially stay-at-home parents and military spouses, to build stable income from home.

      What Melissa offers now: One Hour Bookkeeper

      Melissa created One Hour Bookkeeper to teach beginners how to launch their own bookkeeping practices—even if they don’t consider themselves “numbers people.”

      Founder of the Busy Bees Advisors

      Her line says it best:
      If you can read a recipe, she can teach you bookkeeping.

      Inside the program, students learn:

      • bookkeeping fundamentals (beginner-friendly)

      • how to find clients while they’re learning

      • support through office hours + community

      Melissa also created a free ebook to help people get clear on what they want—and how to build a plan to get there.

      This conversation is packed with the kind of real-life clarity you only get by hearing it straight from Melissa.

      When you call in, you may speak with Christopher (Melissa’s son). Tell him you heard Melissa on The Seed.

      If you’re feeling overwhelmed, behind, or like your time is constantly slipping through your fingers, it’s not because you’re doing it wrong.

      It’s because no one ever taught you how to manage time in a way that honors:

      • Energy

      • Priorities

      • Real life

      That’s why I host my live-only Time & Productivity Session — focused on implementation, not theory.

      And if you’re craving connection, accountability, and honest conversations about building something that lasts, you’ll find that inside The Patch, the Dandelion-Inc membership.

      Because staying in the game?
      That’s the work — and it’s enough.

      Ep 124 – You Don’t Need More Time
      Feb 11 2026
      Why You Feel Behind (Even With Support): The Cost of Unused Value Let’s start with something that might feel a little uncomfortable—but also incredibly freeing. Sometimes the answer isn’t eliminating what you have going on.Sometimes the answer is actually using what you’re already paying for. When time feels scarce, our instinct is to cut.Cancel.Pause.Simplify. And sometimes that is the right move. But other times, we remove the very things meant to support us—not because they aren’t effective, but because we’re overwhelmed. And that’s what I want to talk about today. Because time isn’t always the real issue. Unused value is. What We Do When Life Feels Full When life gets full, our nervous systems go into protection mode. We start thinking: “I don’t have time for this.” “I’ll come back to it later.” “I just need to clear the deck.” So we disengage. We cancel memberships.We stop showing up to spaces that were helping us.We avoid tools we once believed in. Not intentionally—but reflexively. And then something interesting happens. We lose: Accountability Momentum Support Perspective Eventually, we feel stuck again… and start searching for the next thing. That cycle isn’t about commitment. It’s about capacity—and not knowing how to adjust engagement without opting out entirely. Access Is Not the Same as Activation There’s a big difference between having access to something and using it intentionally. Access without activation doesn’t help you.It actually adds mental clutter. You know it’s there.You know you should use it.And that quiet pressure turns into guilt. This shows up everywhere: Courses people never open Communities people join but don’t engage in Tools people pay for but avoid because they feel behind The problem usually isn’t the resource. It’s the lack of integration. Support only works when it fits the season you’re in. You Don’t Have to Show Up to Everything for It to Be Worth It I want to say this clearly—without judgment. People often believe they need to show up to everything for support to be “worth it.” That’s not true. The value isn’t in attending every call.It’s in using what you need when you need it. Some seasons you show up for accountability.Other seasons you show up for ideas.Sometimes you just listen quietly and absorb. All of that still counts. You don’t need more time.You need permission to engage differently. When someone activates even one aspect—one conversation, one resource, one check-in—something shifts. Support becomes a multiplier, not another obligation. How to Activate What You Already Have (Practically) Let’s make this usable. Step 1: Audit (No Shame, Just Facts) Ask yourself: What am I currently paying for that’s meant to support my growth? What am I fully using? What am I ignoring? This isn’t about guilt. It’s about clarity. Step 2: Choose One Thing to Activate Not everything. Just one. One monthly call One resource One accountability check One person to connect with That’s it. Step 3: Lower the Bar for Engagement You don’t need to “catch up.”You don’t need to prove anything. Just show up as you are—where you are. Step 4: Let Support Work With Your Life If something requires more energy than you currently have, adapt how you use it. Don’t automatically eliminate it. Before you cancel.Before you start over.Before you assume you don’t have time… Ask yourself: Am I actually using what I already have? Because sometimes the support you’re looking for isn’t missing. It’s just waiting to be activated. And using what you’ve already invested in might be the most time-saving move you make. Action Steps Write this down: Everything you’re currently paying for to support your growth Circle one thing you’ll activate this week Decide how you’ll engage at your current capacity—not your ideal one This isn’t about starting from scratch. It’s about showing up as you are. And giving yourself permission to stop starting over. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, behind, or like your time is constantly slipping through your fingers, it’s not because you’re doing it wrong. It’s because no one ever taught you how to manage time in a way that honors: Energy Priorities Real life That’s why I host my live-only Time & Productivity Session — focused on implementation, not theory. And if you’re craving connection, accountability, and honest conversations about building something that lasts, you’ll find that inside The Patch, the Dandelion-Inc membership.
