Powerhouse Women

This week, I got to sit down with technically my favorite podcast guest because I'm married to him. My husband Elliot is joining me for another episode and we're giving you guys an update on this year and some really big expansion that we have been experiencing that has come with equally huge periods of testing. This is our first full year where we're both entrepreneurs, neither one of us has, you know, that stable paycheck from corporate America. And it's really tested us in some beautiful ways. But also, it's brought us closer together. If you're playing a really, really big game in life, and want to go from the gap you are in right now to where you want to go, it’s time to look at your habits. There will be times where the next version of you just kind of demands a new commitment to some daily routines and habits that are going to have you show up as your best. Elliot and I both share things we are doing to navigate this season intentionally to prepare for our next level.  HIGHLIGHTS 04:00 Overcoming self-doubt and expanding personal capacity. 08:30 Habits we’re changing to reach our next level. 13:15 The biggest benefits and challenges we’ve experienced as we’re following through with new habits. 18:00 How small consistent changes have brought new opportunities in life and business. 20:30 What advice would you give someone who would like their partner to make changes to their habits 23:45 How we’ve grown closer as we’ve been tested this year.

This might be the most special episode I’ve ever recorded for the podcast. It’s a story I’ve been waiting to share for 3 years. My dear friend Lori Harder is sharing this FULL story for the first time of how we set off to start an alcohol company, the roadblocks she hit along the way, and what she did when finally her hands were tied and moving forward with the original business was no longer an option. When you get to watch one of your best friends go through one of the toughest challenges of their life quite honestly, and come out the other side a stronger version of themselves, having a front row seat to all of that growth is the best thing in the world. We dive into how she raised $2 million to fund her initial vision from all female investors, how she pivoted when her hands were tied and challenges she faced up until the final hour of being able to launch her new beauty hydration company Glōci. I hope in hearing this story you see yourself, that you’re not alone in your challenges, and that your biggest dreams are possible.   HIGHLIGHTS   02:45 What if I’ve accomplished beyond what I could have dreamed of? (What now?) 08:00 The conversations I wanted to start having with my friends that I heard men talk about. 11:00 How Lori got the initial idea for Lite Pink. 18:00 Why did you decide to raise money from all women investors? 21:15 Tips for raising money, being bold with your ask, and building your network. 28:00 What unique supply chain challenges did you come up against?  31:30 How did you support yourself through the lowest parts of the journey?  36:00 What did it look like when you knew the original business was no longer an option? 40:30 Pivoting from alcohol to a wellness product.  48:00 Why did you have to change the name at the final hour? 51:15 Do you think you could have landed on this product without going through all the challenges?

The further I go in business, the more success I achieve, and the bigger my goals become - the more that our motto that you're not meant to do business or life alone becomes true.

I'm craving a very specific type of environment and conversations right now. A room that has high level networking where I can learn from the top women in different industries down to the nitty gritty details of what it cost to achieve their “x” figure launch.

Feel like your next breakthrough is right around the corner? I received messages from so many of you in my DM’s when the episode aired about the gap before your next gain.

That I need to create space and stillness - which is NOT the same as laziness.

I'm coming to you from the gap in between leaving one season, one level of my own success, my own growth, to the next level. When you set your sights on a big goal it can be easy to focus on that gap that makes us feel far from our success. When in reality that feeling is a confirmation that we’re on the right track. Sitting in the gap before the abundance feels so uncomfortable, but it’s a necessary and beautiful part of the process if we let it. Listen in as I share some examples of what it looks like from changes in relationships to seasons of business and- recognizing this gap is the sign you have an abundance to gain when you learn and grow through it.   HIGHLIGHTS 03:45 The patience and surrender during a season of drought before abundance. 08:24 Letting go of old relationships to make room for new ones. 12:00 Embracing the gap between who you are now and who you want to be. 16:00 How does business growth change in different seasons?
