Welcome back to Re-imagining Online Business! In this Season 2 opener, Tristan and Brooke reunite with a raw, reflective, and real-time check-in—and preview what’s ahead.
This episode blends casual conversation with deeper questions about what it means to be entrepreneurs, facilitators, and humans in an increasingly unstable, violent, and extractive world. We talk about the business patterns we’re noticing (and resisting), what it feels like to be in a visibility-scarcity cycle, and the impossibility of showing up “strategically” while also advocating for liberation.
Here’s what we get into:
A peek at what’s coming this season: topics like the nuances of ChatGPT, visual branding with integrity, and the “is Instagram dead?” convo.
A sincere and vulnerable exchange around gender identity and personal evolution
The deep tension between capitalism and the grief of witnessing more and more state violence
Questions of responsibility, urgency, and sustainability in business right now
If you’re sitting with the both/and of business and grief, strategy and uncertainty—you’re not alone. This season, we’re exploring it in more detail.

It seems like every online business or marketing coach is talking about ethical pricing and sales these days. Wtf does it mean to be “ethical” when it comes to marketing and sales? And how do we actually price our work effectively? Hint: it’s not a matter of simply raising or lowering rates!
Here’s what we’ve found (aka topics discussed in episode 4):
We are witnessing a shift in sales planning for online service based business owners—we’re moving out of an era of talking about how to “get the sale” and into an era of “how can we create businesses that attract the right people into the right containers”
Part of being values-aligned is making things accessible for a client base and sustainable for the service-based business owner
There’s really only one “rule” to pricing and it’s probably not what you think it is
Other (important) topics discussed:
Love on the Spectrum and Ru Paul’s Drag Race
Love Island as a bougie terrarium
Manipulation vs trust in marketing and branding
Sales and consent
