This week we are talking about how important it is to periodically ask yourself, “What am I doing and why am I doing it?” As your life and your business evolves, your goals and priorities shift. It’s critical to set aside time to consider what is serving those new goals and priorities… and what isn’t. In this episode, we are also giving a sneak peek into what is coming for Season 2 of Big Brave Business and all the big decisions we made during our hiatus between seasons to determine what direction WE want to go from here based on our own growth and evolution. Season 2 is going to be SO fun, friends.

Do you think about your personal brand? Your personal brand is the impression you give people about who you are, especially online. In today's episode, we're talking about personal brands and professional brands and how they overlap and what the heck we think about when it comes to our own branding.

This summer, we have both been inundated by launches - client launches, launches from people we follow, and launches in our own businesses. So, we’re sharing some of our lessons and takeaways about launching - and that leads us to the big, brave discussion about sales feeling sleazy. Manipulation, marketing to people’s deepest fears, selling from desperation and scarcity, and more.

The way we think about money, and our assumptions about how money works, directly influence our relationship with money and how money flows into and out of our lives. On this episode, we are getting vulnerable and sharing some of our deepest, most intense shit about money.

Have you ever invested in a life or business coach or a mastermind (or any other buzzword like that in online entrepreneurship) and been a little bit confused about what you were supposed to have gotten out of your massive 5-figure investment? Us, too.

This week we are talking about saying NO and setting boundaries in your life and business. Do you have trouble saying no?

In the final episode of Big Brave Business Season 1, we are talking about how we are watching our businesses evolve (and how that impacts Big Brave Business!). We are super excited to watch BBB grow and evolve, too, and can’t wait to come back bigger and braver with season 2 in April 2024.

We have previously touched on some good advice we've gotten, and we decided to expand on that and also talk about our journeys to start our businesses. How do you know when it's time to turn your side hustle into a full-time job? What would we do differently if we could do it over again?

With the US General Election this year heating up and the heartbreaking conflict going on in Palestine and Israel, there is a lot of pressure for folks with social media platforms to speak up about their opinions about these kinds of things. From Elyse Myers and influencer culture to Taylor Swift and celebrity superstardom to business owners, this week, we are breaking down our opinions and perspectives on what our social responsibility is to speak up and where the lines get blurry.

We’ve been working hard on a cool project for Sarah’s business, Podfox Media.

This week, we are talking about how to get rich quick! Just kidding, but we are talking about "get rich quick" schemes, what it means to be rich, and whether we consider ourselves to be rich.

Amanda has some major personal updates, including her recent move and birthday, which are icing on the cake of her recent professional achievements. In this episode, we also explore the importance of collaboration and communication in business, and Amanda offers golden advice: you need to tell people what it is you want or need.

Have you ever felt bored with your business? Restless? In a rut? This week we’re talking about why that happens, what it feels like, and what to do to snap out of it.

We thought we would do a fun spin on last year’s “trend forecast” episode this year. Instead of just including our own predictions, we asked YOU what you thought would be the big trend for online business in 2024. We went through several of your responses and gave our own reactions, thoughts, and insights to each one.

One year into this podcast, we had so much fun looking back at this past year in this episode. We are dishing on our biggest wins and lessons learned in 2023, from hitting major business goals to streamlining our workflows. We are also teasing some of our plans and goals for the new year - it's sure to be our biggest yet!

At the beginning of this year, we made some predictions about what we thought were going to be trends in 2023. Now the time has come to see how clairvoyent we really were a year ago! What do you think? Did we nail it or what?

It’s not like you have to wait until a certain time of year to show someone you appreciate them, but this time of year is a GREAT time of year to make the extra effort to let your clients and/or your team know how much they mean to you. We are inspired by some of the things we’ve seen clients do and we’re also sharing some of the things we’ve personally done that did or did not make a big impact, and brainstorming what other ideas we might be interested in doing to express our appreciation in the future.

If you've been with us since the beginning, we've been talking about our vision and goals for our businesses all year with a 2023 scope. In this episode, we are talking about how that vision has shifted for both of us going into 2024. Here's what we are hoping for in the new year.

If you’ve been listening to this podcast for awhile, you probably know Amanda as the type of entrepreneur who lives for the hustle, grinding from the time she gets up (before the sun even comes up!) until she’s ready to go to bed. So, you might be surprised to learn that in the past couple of months, she has made some MAJOR shifts in both her mindset and her business operations, streamlining to find a work-life balance while still making more money than she ever imagined.

November was a crazy month for us. Sarah was traveling across the mid-Atlantic for two weeks, both Sarah & Amanda celebrated Thanksgiving with their families, and as a result, it’s been a minute since we’ve had a chance to catch up. Grab a cup of coffee and join us for a little girly catch up session.

In our experience in business, we’ve had our share of struggles. In addition, we do a lot of client work with other entrepreneurs, and we hear a LOT about what they are up against. So in this episode, we are dissecting the most common themes we hear entrepreneurs struggling with, and we hope that no matter what hardships you’ve experienced in your business, this helps you feel a little less alone.

Happy American Thanksgiving Week, besties! This week we are playing a replay of one of our favorite episodes. We'll be back with brand new content weekly starting next Tuesday :)
