    Key Takeaways:

    • Choose your business model wisely: service, product, content, or investment-based...each has its own “hard.”
    • Focus on profits over revenue. Cash flow and margins matter more than top-line vanity metrics.
    • Create an irresistible offer before worrying about branding or marketing.
    • Prioritize mindset work as much as strategy—entrepreneurship is emotional.
    • Master sales (it’s the heartbeat of your business).
    • Build community...find and hold close your entrepreneur friends.
    • Prepare for hard seasons in business; they’re inevitable.
    • Ask yourself the real question: Do you actually want to be an entrepreneur?

    The Duality of Ambition: Shame, Drive, and Self-Acceptance

From self-acceptance to the pursuit of a life without limits, this episode invites you to reframe your own relationship to wanting more...and to see your ambition as a divine creative force rather than something to tame.

    All the Lives I Want: The Beautiful Burden of Infinite Possibility

    In this intimate solo episode, Gabrielle Scout reflects on the ache of wanting to be everything at once — writer, entrepreneur, mother, muse, creator — and the quiet grief that comes with choosing just one life to live. Inspired by Sylvia Plath’s fig-tree metaphor, she explores the tension between our boundless potential and our human limitation, and how the most interesting women learn to dance between the two.

    A meditation on ambition, multiplicity, and the beauty of being both limited and limitless.
