    862: Feeling Overworked and Overwhelmed? Try These 6 Time-Saving Habits

    What if I told you that a few small shifts could give you back hours of your week—without working faster, sacrificing sleep, or giving up the things you love?


    Since becoming a mom—twice now—I’ve realized just how precious time really is. But here’s the thing: we all get the same 24 hours in a day. The difference? How we choose to spend them.


    When this episode originally aired, my youngest wasn’t even a year old, and I was deep in the season of figuring out how to maximize my time while juggling all the things. And while life looks a little different now, these six simple habits still ring true. So whether you’re feeling stretched thin or just looking for ways to make your days feel more spacious, press play!

    860: 5 Pieces of Bad Business Advice I’m Glad I Didn’t Take

    Not all business advice is created equal. In fact, some of the most commonly shared tips—the ones that sound super strategic or even “proven”—can actually hold you back! 


    Over the years, I’ve been given plenty of well-meaning advice that, if I had followed it, would have led me straight to burnout, bad investments, or a business that didn’t feel like me.


    In this episode, I’m breaking down five pieces of bad business advice I’m so glad I didn’t take. From the pressure to scale at all costs to the myth that you have to be everywhere, all the time, I’ll share why these “rules” didn’t work for me—and what I did instead. If you’ve ever questioned the business playbook that everyone seems to be following, this one’s for you!

    859: Why Listening to Your Audience Matters (How Feedback Can Grow Your Business)

    Have you ever had a brilliant product idea but wondered, "Is this really worth pursuing?" My guest today, Katie Hunt, is an expert in turning ideas into viable, market-ready products. As the Co-Founder and CEO of Oh Norman!, she’s leveraged her experience at Warby Parker, Hinge, and Showfields to build a brand that stands out in the competitive pet industry.


    In today’s episode, we’re breaking down how to evaluate whether your product idea is solving the right problem, why trying to market to "everyone" is a mistake, and the steps to crafting a brand that speaks directly to the right audience.


    And—just a heads-up—about halfway through, I take a turn and ask Katie a personal question, and let me tell you, it might be one of my favorite stories ever told on Goal Digger. It’s such a powerful moment and a testament to the importance of authenticity and connection in building a brand.


    If you’re ready to take your product from idea to impact—and avoid the costly mistake of building something no one really wants—this episode is for you!

    858: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at My Marketing Hours (And the Strategies That Deliver)

    Raise your hand if you’ve ever felt like marketing your business is a never-ending to-do list, constantly changing, and eating up more hours than you’d like! You’re not alone—entrepreneurs spend an average of 20 hours per week on marketing, but here’s the kicker: not all marketing is created equal. 


    Some efforts last 24 hours, while others can work for you for months or even years.

    In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on exactly where I spend my marketing time each week—what’s worth it, what’s not, and why I structure my time the way I do.

    855: Why You Need to Separate Your Self-Worth From Your Success

    Have you ever achieved a major milestone in your career, only to find yourself wondering, “What’s next?” It’s an odd feeling, isn’t it? That mix of pride, joy, and maybe a little fear about where to go from here.


    Today’s guest, Azie Jazestani, knows this feeling all too well. With nearly two decades in the events industry, Azie went from planning unforgettable celebrations to running her own venue, Maison Principale. She scaled and sold that business—a massive achievement that any entrepreneur would dream of. But what came next wasn’t just a victory lap. It was a brave step into reinvention.


    Now, Azie is the founder of The Sweet Table Shop, a beautifully curated product line for event professionals and party lovers. Her story is one of resilience, creativity, and constantly evolving to embrace new opportunities. But it’s also a story about the comeback after a win—the surprising challenges that arise after reaching a peak and the courage it takes to build again.


    In our conversation, we discuss how Azie navigated this journey, her insights on staying true to your vision while reinventing yourself, and the lessons she’s learned about resilience and renewal.

    853: The Power of Saying No: How to Focus on What Matters Most in Life and Business

    When I think about the incredible women in the Goal Digger community, I’m constantly blown away by the way you’re showing up for your dreams while navigating the beautiful, messy realities of life. 


    Today’s guest, Samantha Gaunt, embodies that perfectly. She’s a blended mom of five, a creative entrepreneur, and the founder of Simply Scaling—a business that helps mompreneurs streamline their businesses and align their passions with their monthly cycles for a strategic edge. How amazing is that?


    Sam reached out to me in the Goal Digger Podcast Insiders Facebook Group with a challenge I know so many of us face: how to prioritize intentional growth while protecting your energy. With so many opportunities calling your name, how do you decide where to focus? How do you shift from “doing it all” to doing what matters most—without losing yourself in the process?


    In our coaching session, we explore Sam’s journey as a multi-passionate mompreneur and unpack the importance of saying “no” to good opportunities to say “yes” to the great ones. Let’s dive into how to identify what truly moves the needle in your business, align your work with your personal values, and create boundaries that honor your energy.
