When people say relationships are the key to business, it’s usually code for “go network more.” But this episode is the story of what it looks like when relationships are the business model — before social media, before funnels, and before most people reading this could even drive. This is my untold scrappy startup story built on trust, reputation, and the kind of generosity that opens doors you didn’t even know existed. WHAT’S INSIDE THIS EPISODE: Why my most “successful” marketing efforts b...

Once upon a time, I hosted a masterclass that had what I thought was a terrible conversion rate — until it wasn't. Not a single person bought on the call. But in the days that followed? EVERY person who attended wound up buying. In this episode, I’m breaking down the four-part framework I’ve used (and taught behind-the-scenes) to drive wildly high conversion rates — ethically, educationally, and without a bait-and-switch in sight. If you’ve ever felt allergic to bro marketing, or you want to ...

This episode is a real-time debrief of a launch that turned out nothing like I expected. I’m unpacking what I thought would be a low-lift, high-reward move and why I had to make a major, unexpected decision mid-way through.

I’m sharing the behind-the-scenes of what shifted for me in real time — and what I think might be shifting across the indu...

Enter Tracy Matthews. After decades of running multiple seven-figure businesses, she found herself at a crossroads: stay on the path of relentless growth, or embrace a radical shift – *de*scaling.

Elise Hodge knows a thing or two about words that sell – and building highly strategic funnels. She built her business as a top-tier conversion copywriter, crafting high-converting sales pages and launch copy for clients. But after years of juggling done-for-you services while growing her family (baby #3 is due any day!), she realized she wanted a business model that was more... kiddo + lifestyle friendly. So she made the leap into digital products. And spoiler alert: it paid off. In this epi...

Is launching dead? In a market that more distrusting (and more distracted) than ever, many people seem to think that launching either no longer works or is no longer worth the effort of lower than ever show up and conversion rates. But as Shannon Matson notes, every time you look at the sun to the west, she's launching again – because it's working for her. But howwwwww?! *Shakes fist wildly at the sky* In this episode, I'm sitting down with Shannon to break down her insanely creative,...

Buckle up, because this episode is a cautionary tale about how I almost lost my Stripe account (no, but really!). I want to open up for full transparency around how I navigated the situation to get it back up and running – but also what I'm doing to be prepared if something like this were to ever happen again. Admittedly this is not exactly the sexiest topic... but I think it's a super important conversation to have because this is probably the most devastating thing that could h...

When financial expert Alyssa Lang first set out in 2015 to do her bar patrons’ taxes, she quickly realized she preferred working with the business owners that owed money – meaning they were profitable – rather than the refund seekers. That realization was the catalyst for uncovering her true business superpower of 'using the right data to make the right decisions’ – and not, surprisingly, insta-tabulating the correct tip to add to a check – and she now works just 2-5 hours each week on the T...
