519: GIVING YOURSELF GRACE WHEN EVERYTHING'S A LOT May 21, 2025

Show notes

If you've been feeling like you're carrying too much and still not doing enough—you're not alone. This episode is a real-time snapshot of what it looks like to juggle a packed life and still choose softness over self-criticism. I'm sharing updates on my trays journey (almost done!), content strategy progress, garden harvests, and the house build… but more importantly, I'm naming the overwhelm and offering permission to let a few things slide. Because giving yourself grace is a strategy—and sometimes, it's the most important one.

514: BE UNBOTHERED. SHARE IT ANYWAY. Apr 16, 2025

Show notes

You're not annoying — you're remindable. In this episode, I break down why sharing your offers often isn't spam, it's strategy. Inspired by a viral reel (and 4 emails from Old Navy), I'm giving you a pep talk on showing up, being seen, and marketing like a pro — even to friends and family. Don't fail because you're afraid to share.

513: WHY INSTAGRAM ALONE ISN'T ENOUGH Apr 09, 2025

Show notes

This week, I'm getting real about Instagram's latest changes, what it means for creators + small business owners, and why betting everything on one platform is just plain risky. I'm sharing what changed on Instagram and how it's impacting creators; why building across multiple platforms is non-negotiable; how I'm compounding my content for more reach with less burnout and a peek into my updated bio, brand focus, and weekly content goals. Whether you're a flower farmer, content creator, or small biz owner, there's a nugget in here for you.

512: MAKING SPACE FOR YOURSELF Apr 02, 2025

Show notes

I traveled by myself and I survived. I just returned from my Spring Round Top buying trip and it was the first time to do it solo in close to 10 years. I've done day trips by myself when I first started going, but I've never traveled by myself for a week. And I learned some things about myself. Tune in.

511: FEARLESS VISIBILITY IN YOUR BUSINESS Mar 26, 2025

Show notes

I was chatting with a friend the other day and mentioned a few not-so-nice comments I got recently on TikTok and YouTube. She kind of shrugged and said, "Well, you do live your life online," and that really stuck with me. Running a business online is already hard — the pressure, the visibility, the vulnerability. Add unkind or straight-up mean comments on top of that, and no wonder so many of us hesitate to show up fully as ourselves. But here's the thing: choosing to share online doesn't mean we're inviting people to attack or tear us down. In this episode, I'm talking about what it really looks like to overcome the fear of being seen in your business — and how to keep showing up, even when it feels hard.
