100: Our 100th Episode- Bloopers & Starting Before You're Ready
We’ve made it to our 100th episode. What EVEN. This podcast has been such a fun aspect of our job, and we love getting on the mic twice a week giving you guys business education, life inspiration, and so much more. We thought for a while about what we wanted to do for our 100th episode. A lot of podcasts sometimes do an epic guest for their 100th episode or they do little snippets of past incredible episodes. Or they reflect on the last year all eloquently and what not. Well, we’re doing none of that. In true Evie and Lindsey fashion, we felt like the best way to commemorate our 100th episode was to give you a whole episode of our outtakes from the past 100 episodes. Our goofs. Our bloopers. Our spazzy selves. You’re getting ALL of it and more today. Fair warning: there’s no education here today. If you’re just here for the biz hacks, we have nearly 99 episodes for that (go listen to any one of them), but this episode is purely just for laughs. If you’ve followed us for a while you know that’s very on-brand for us. We love to serve you hard business education, but in a super fun way. And we never take ourselves too seriously.

097: Lindsey's Miscarriage Story
It’s just me (Lindsey) today because I am getting pretty vulnerable, real, and raw today. I’m sharing very openly my miscarriage story. If you didn’t know I went through a miscarriage around the end of September/early October. Taking off a few weeks from the podcast, I knew when I came back I wanted to do an episode about my story. Mainly because so many women go through miscarriages and I did not realize that until I was one of them. Sharing my story on Instagram and receiving so many messages from women that resonated with me. That is my heart with this episode, to show up vulnerably and share my story in a way that if you have been through this hell also, that you don’t feel alone. That this permits you to feel. Or maybe you’ve gone through another type of heartbreak and resonate with my story in that way. Or you might be somebody who has not gone through this at all but know somebody. Or you’re just listening to this episode and I hope in that case if this ever happens to you or a friend in the future you might know what to expect or how to grieve with your friend. Our podcast name is Heart & Hustle. We focus a lot on the hustle but this episode is going to be one million percent the Heart. If you are in a season of being pregnant or just recently found out you miscarried, something where this episode might be triggering I would just please recommend that you stop. If this topic is in any way triggering to you, I don’t want this to unnecessarily trigger somebody but I do want to share it in a way that connects with YOU if you listen and to not feel alone.

If you’re the kind of person who struggles with the legal side of your business, and you keep pushing contracts aside thinking they’re unimportant or you’ll get one later… please don’t go anywhere. On the show today we’re welcoming Paige Griffith for the second time! Whoop! She’s been on the show once before on episode 23, and we had her back today to do a deep dive on all things contracts, especially contracts for photographers. A little bit about Paige, she’s the founder of The Legal Paige, a virtual law firm working with online businesses and wedding industry professionals. She is a certified Juris Doctor barred in the state of Montana and holds a double B.A. in Economics and Political Science. Within The Legal Paige, she helps her clients and online community run legal and protected businesses and counsels them on issues related to contracts, intellectual property, privacy, and business law.

Her mission is to create an online space where the law isn’t so scary and entrepreneurs can get legally legit in no time. In this episode, Paige answers some big questions like “why are contracts so important? What’s the big deal?” “Do I need a contract at the very beginning of my business?” “What about if I’m just doing business or providing a service for a close family or best friend? Are contracts necessary there?” She also answers where she recommends getting a contract if you don’t have one at all. It’s a really good juicy episode. Paige breaks down all things contract-related and legal jargon SO freaking well.

She’s a modern-day role model, proving that anything is possible for anyone wishing to strive for more in their lives and careers. A business owner by the age of eighteen, property investor by nineteen, and millionaire by twenty-three, Emma Isaacs has entrepreneurship and achievement in her DNA. Aside from being the founder of Business Chicks—a thriving global community that operates on two continents in eleven cities, producing more than one hundred events annually, with past speakers including Sir Richard Branson, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kate Hudson, and Arianna Huffington, among others—she’s also a bestselling author and mother to six kids under age eleven. She’s literally a rockstar mama. Emma doesn’t believe in work/life balance, preferring to advocate for a full life where people are in constant evaluation of what they truly want from it. A fearless leader with seemingly never-ending courage to spare, Emma inspires thousands with her boundless energy and ability to see possibility wherever she goes. We sat down with Emma today to talk about the topic of her new book Winging It. In Emma’s story, there's a LOT you can relate to!
