To me, that just shows that it is a healthy, money making, market. You don't want to be in a dying market. You want to be in a market that people are putting money behind and energy behind and time behind.” - Julie Solomon  “ I treat my podcast as a cross channel platform. I don't think of it only as an audio platform. I don't think of it as only Apple. Even when it comes to audio, I'm thinking about what are all the other audio platforms? There's 70 platforms out there. How can I do media buying on those platforms? How can I trade with those platforms and grow?” - Hala Taha GUEST RESOURCES: Hala Taha @yapwithhala Find out more about Hala’s Network!  RESOURCES: [THE GROWTH COLLECTIVE] For a limited time, you can join my Social Media Growth Collective for just $97/month (normally $197/month).

Happy New Year, friends, and welcome to 2025! In this cozy solo episode, I’m diving into a deeply personal topic that feels so aligned for the start of the year—shifting from the constant chase for more to fully embracing enough. I’ll share how we can stop living in “the gap,” where we focus on what’s missing, and start celebrating “the gain,” where we honor how far we’ve come. I reflect on my own journey of releasing the pressure to always achieve the next big thing and instead focus on sustainable growth, alignment, and gratitude. You’ll hear powerful mindset shifts, practical tips, and an invitation to step into this year with clarity and confidence. Let’s make 2025 the year we stop chasing and start embracing you are already enough! Liked this episode?

If your past self could see you now, the business you've built, the incredible clients that you've served, the growth that you've experienced, no matter how big or small, she would be in awe. But instead of celebrating that progress, we often focus on what's missing right now” - Julie Solomon  “ I know that you have probably thought, in the last week or so, I should be further along by now. But says who? Based on what metric? Someone else's 2024 Instagram highlight reel, someone else's version of success? That comparison trap is deadly, my friends and it is one of the biggest reasons why people feel so stuck.” - Julie Solomon RESOURCES: [THE GROWTH COLLECTIVE] Join my 2025 Business Planning Session inside The Growth Collective and start the year with clarity, simplicity, and a profitable plan—Click here to join!

It's infinite. It's within us. It's made for us. It's everything. If you have a hard time seeing that, it's hard to believe that, which then means it's not tangible for you, and maybe the listeners can relate to this, it's really hard for them to either identify or create the tools to create a life for prosperity and ease.” - Julie Solomon  “ I think that what's really exciting is every once in a while we get a whisper from our soul. It's funny because the mind is really loud, but it has no answers, but the heart has all the answers and there comes a moment, and hopefully many moments, where you can no longer hold back your spiritual truth.” - Cathy Heller GUEST RESOURCES: Cathy Heller @cathy.heller [CHECK OUT CATHY’S BOOK] Abundant Ever After: Tools for Creating a Life of Prosperity and Ease is your guide to breaking free from limiting beliefs and embracing a life of prosperity, joy, and ease.

Maybe a Michael Strahan, a Paris Hilton. In three words, you can immediately identify what their brand is. And what I'd say to anyone out there is, in three words, what would your boss? What would your colleague? What would your partner? What would your mom or dad? Say your brand is, and if that isn't quickly identifiable, you may have some struggles when other people are looking at you as a resource to be their outlet for an opportunity. - Jason Tartick I think a lot of times people don't even give themselves the permission of getting started.
