Rerelease: #8 The Renee Lynn Frojo Route

Renee Lynn Frojo is a writer, strategist, and former journalist who’s built multiple creative ventures—from food blogs to online magazines to a thriving content consulting business.

In this episode, Renee shares why she’s walking away from one-to-one client work and betting big on herself (again). She opens up about evolving as a solopreneur, finding clarity through experimentation, and what it really takes to stay motivated when the initial spark fades. From a press badge in D.C. to building a food blog from scratch, Renee traces how every chapter of her career has uniquely prepared her to help others tell their stories—and now, to launch A Good Reputation, a new newsletter about building businesses with intention and integrity.
