We all see the highlight reels online — $100K launches from one post, “overnight” wins, and the myth that scaling is seamless. But the truth of running a business looks a lot different behind the scenes.
In this episode, I’m kicking off a brand-new quarterly series with my business BFF, Laura Milroy. Every few months, we’ll sit down to share what’s actually happening inside our businesses — the wins we’re celebrating, the pivots we’re making, and the uncomfortable conversations that come with growth.
In this first check-in, we talk about why taking a summer off wasn’t the death of Laura’s business, how cutting $800 worth of subscriptions changed my margins, and why scaling always comes with self-doubt (even after 10+ years in business). You’ll hear the honest, unfiltered version of entrepreneurship that doesn’t show up in polished Instagram posts.
Whether you’re craving a true BTS glimpse of what it looks like to build and sustain a service-based business, or you just want to feel less alone in the messy middle, you’ll love this conversation.

Wait…. where’s the blog post?
If you’ve been around here for a while, you know I’m a huge advocate for turning your podcast episodes into full blog posts. Not just quick show notes, but real, SEO-driven articles that help your episodes get found long after they’ve gone live. It’s one of the smartest ways to repurpose your content and get more mileage out of the work you’re already doing.
But here’s the thing: not every episode is designed with SEO in mind — and that’s okay.
This week’s episode is the very first in a new quarterly series with my business BFF, Laura. It’s less about keywords and more about pulling back the curtain on what’s really happening inside our businesses: the wins, the struggles, the “oh shit” moments, and the messy middle of running service-based businesses. In other words, this one’s about connection, not searchability.
Because the truth is: while SEO matters, your content strategy doesn’t have to hinge on every single piece being optimized. Some episodes are meant to educate, some are meant to convert, and some — like this one — are meant to connect.
Love you, mean it!
