545: 3 STEPS TO MOVE YOUR OFFER FORWARD show art 545: 3 STEPS TO MOVE YOUR OFFER FORWARD

And So...

If you’ve committed to the five ones but don’t know what to do next, this episode is your next step. I’m breaking down the exact three-part process I’m following in real time — from creating a simple, grounded course to building a funnel that doesn’t feel like a funnel, to finally growing your audience with content that actually connects. No hype, no overwhelm — just a doable path forward for the one-woman show ready to sell something real.   RESOURCES MENTIONED NOTE: Some links below contain affiliate/referral links.

And So...

When you know your brand, you don’t have to bend to be chosen. In this episode, I’m unpacking a real client convo that tested my boundaries — and why saying “no” (even to shiny opportunities) is sometimes the clearest move you can make.   RESOURCES MENTIONED NOTE: Some links below contain affiliate/referral links.

And So...

What happens when the win finally lands — and there’s no one around to high five? In this episode, I’m naming the quiet tension of growing past the people around you. Not above them. Not better than. Just past. We’re talking about what it feels like to reach a milestone and realize you’re celebrating solo — and how to let that moment still count. From the subtle guilt of shrinking your joy to the grief of outgrowing old circles, this one’s for the woman navigating growth, gratitude, and a little bit of loneliness. You’re not wrong for wanting to celebrate. And you’re not...

And So...

This week’s Business Nugget is a behind-the-scenes look at what it actually feels like to build something new — in my case, a course for The House of Sugar Creek — while still juggling everything else. I’m walking you through the real checklist (not just the cute one), the overwhelm that hits mid-way, and why “just recording some videos” turns into a full-blown tech stack spiral. If you’re in the thick of it too, this one’s for you — a gentle reminder that slow progress is still progress, even when it’s not shiny yet. RESOURCES MENTIONED NOTE: Some...

info_outline 541: DESPERATION IS NOT A STRATEGY show art 541: DESPERATION IS NOT A STRATEGY

And So...

A DM gone wrong sparked this week’s business nugget: how not to approach a cold audience. I’m breaking down why vague outreach feels desperate, how it can erode trust fast, and what to do instead if you actually want to connect. Whether you’re in growth mode or just trying to stay visible, this is your reminder—clarity, care, and context always convert better than copy-paste tactics.

And So...

What if the reason your offer isn’t landing has nothing to do with your content — and everything to do with what you named it? In this episode, I break down a genius move from Taylor Swift that has nothing to do with music and everything to do with strategy — specifically, how she’s using SEO to reclaim the narrative and meet her audience exactly where they’re already searching. And we’re not just watching it happen — we’re applying it. If you’ve ever felt like your sales page is solid but somehow still invisible, or like your freebie isn’t getting traction no matter how...

And So...

What happens when you realize you’ve been treated like a task, not a priority—and it finally clicks that you’re allowed to want more? This episode is a behind-the-scenes breakdown of what led me to fire my property management company, reclaim the way I run my property rentals, and reflect on how that same misalignment can quietly show up in our own businesses. If your clients are starting to feel like checkboxes or your follow-through has started to slide, this is your gut check. Because being someone’s priority starts with making yourself one.

And So...

Sometimes clarity shows up mid-spiral — and sometimes it shows up at 11pm with ChatGPT open and a course idea you can’t let go of. This week’s business nugget is a behind-the-scenes walkthrough of how I took a single problem (garden pests) and used the Rule of Five Ones to map out a complete digital product funnel. We’re talking: real keyword research, messy naming pivots, and the moment it finally clicked. If you’ve been circling an idea but haven’t found the frame — this one’s for you.

And So...

Let’s talk about the Rule of Five Ones — because this might be the clearest business strategy I’ve come across in a long time. One problem. One target market. One offer. One platform. One year. That’s it. And apparently, it’s the method that’s helping everyday creators hit their first million — without a massive audience, without a team, and without 18 different offers flying around. I’m sharing how I stumbled into this strategy (thank you, Maria Wendt rabbit hole), why it lit a fire under me, and how I’m reworking both Boss Girl Creative and House of Sugar Creek...

And So...

Ten years into business and still sitting with the weight of “why hasn’t it landed yet?” In this episode, I open up about the quiet grief that comes with building something meaningful that still feels invisible online. It’s a real-time reflection on the tension between being great at what you do and still wondering why it hasn’t translated — and a reminder that your work is still worthy, even in the waiting.
