The Heart & Hustle Podcast

Today we’re doing a follow-up podcast from Episode 144: Behind the scenes of Our Executive Retreat. In that episode, we recapped and brought you behind the scenes of how we structured our team retreat, how we structure the backend of The Heart University and moving forward how we wanted to manage our team and daily operations within.    We recorded that episode immediately after our team retreat in Mexico, talking about everything we did but also what we PLANNED to do moving forward to implement things into The Heart. And at the end of the show, we asked you if you were interested in having us do a follow-up episode to see how we did this year at ACTUALLY implementing everything we set out to do after that retreat.    We’re back here at the end of the year in December to tell you how it’s been going. How we’ve done at staying on track with our goals, how we feel we’ve led our team as bosses, and implementing everything we wanted to move forward after our team retreat.    We’re baring it all and being 100% honest about how we’ve done in the year 2021. Prepare for a candid conversation showing you our behind-the-scenes of The Heart University.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/199-follow-up-on-our-heart-goals-from-executive-retreat   The Content Photo Minor: https://theheartuniversity.com/content-minor   Daily Harvest: https://www.daily-harvest.com/?sscid=81k5_ny39p&utm_source=sas&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=aff&utm_term=2908821 Use promo code: HEART for up to $40 off your first box!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Earlier this year on Lindsey's stories she talked about the concept of silent wealth, and how Andrew and she wanted to not only work towards diversifying their income to have multiple streams but also to make sure that a good chunk of those streams of income was coming from business avenues that weren’t necessarily attached to her face.    If you aren’t familiar with the term “silent wealth”, it’s essentially the concept of having income and investments that are detached from your name, your face, or any other brand you may have.   We’re excited to dive into this topic and discuss the how, the why, and the what of building silent wealth. If you’re intrigued by the idea of having multiple income and revenue streams detached from your public image, you’re gonna love this conversation!   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/194-what-is-silent-wealth-how-to-build-it   Lightroom Editing Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Married couples - LISTEN UP! Today you’re about to get your world rocked in the BEST way possible. We’re about to have the most powerful, raw, and life-changing conversation with two of the sweetest and funniest humans on earth. Kristin and Danny Adams bring the fire talking about all things relationships and marriage.    Now if you don’t know who they are, Kristin and Danny Adams are the husband-and-wife duo whose February 2017 lip-sync video went mega-viral and completely changed their lives. To date, it’s been viewed over 300 million times and has grown their online community to one million people.    Before they started making videos, Kristin worked in the entertainment industry as a television host and correspondent, and Danny worked in the entertainment industry as an actor, comedian, and stunt man for sports commercials. Now, they work together full-time to produce online family-friendly content where God is always welcome. When they aren’t making videos, they homeschool their two children, travel across the country hosting and emceeing live events, speak at marriage conferences, and perform their “Laughter Is the Best Medicine” program.   In today’s episode, Kristin and Danny share their raw story of coming to the Lord together as a couple, how their relationships with God completely changed their lifestyle before marriage. Before they found the Lord they were working in Hollywood, living together, having sex, and made the radical choice after finding the Lord to move out, commit to purity until their wedding date, and completely changed their entire lifestyle. We then chatted about some of the most powerful marriage truths, principles, and tools that will completely transform a relationship from “boo to woo”.

Today we’re talking about the massive impact and power that comes from having a business mentor in your life. As an entrepreneur, it can be freaking HARD as heck to build and grow a business all on your own. So often as entrepreneurs, we’re chugging at our dreams alone. If you’re the kind of person who didn't come from an entrepreneurial family and don’t have friends who are also in the entrepreneurial world then it can be so lonely not to mention difficult to navigate the mindset blocks and how to run a business.    This is why investing in your business with a coach or a mentor who understands it, who is in your industry or understands business, in general, can make a huge impact on your success as a business owner. Let’s dive into the top 3 reasons why you need a business mentor in your life and our top tips on how to find one.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/192-why-having-a-business-mentor-will-change-your-life   The Content Photo Minor: https://theheartuniversity.com/content-minor   Daily Harvest: https://www.daily-harvest.com/?sscid=81k5_ny39p&utm_source=sas&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=aff&utm_term=2908821 Use promo code: HEART for up to $40 off your first box!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity
