EPISODE 1: What more business owners need in their business
Can running a business be profitable AND fun? We say yes!
If you feel like you’re taking business just a bit too seriously or business is just feeling hard... this episode for you.
Join us as we talk through the ingredient so many business owners are missing: FUN!
We talk about how we used the concept of fun to start this podcast and other projects in the last 12 months and how having more fun can introduce more enjoyment and ease in your business.
Other topics we explore in this episode are:
- Making room for fun in your business
- What projects to take on
- Making business decisions
- When to let your business expand
- How business has shifted in the last few years
We would love to hear what fun things you’re going to infuse into your business!
‘Cause business is serious...just not that serious.

When Saying Goodbye Sucks
Eavesdrop on Us
08/22/23 • 33 min
Having heartache because you’ve reached the end of the road with a coach/mentor, vendor, subcontractor, or employee in your business?
You’re not alone! It’s difficult for many to say a “loving goodbye” in business. And as business advisors, we’ve witnessed many entrepreneurs add “drama” to what was otherwise a great working relationship.
That’s why we’re bringing this topic to the table,
- Why it’s so difficult to say “goodbye” (this one stumped us!)
- How to avoid adding drama and negative emotions to the end of a working relationship (and what to do instead)
- The simple shift we started using with our approach to business relationships (and you can use this, too)

The trap of always wanting more clients and customers
Eavesdrop on Us
09/17/23 • 34 min
In challenging economic times, it’s easy for any business owner to do whatever they need to do to bring in more money. That includes discounting, offering anything that will make them money, lowering pricing, and so on...
But IS this the best decision for the longevity of your business? Even if it feels good at the moment?
This week, we use Delta Airlines’ surprising overhaul to their SkyMiles loyalty program as a case study (spoiler: people aren’t happy). And while we don’t know all the reasons why Delta made these changes, there are some super valuable lessons for us small business owners to takeaway:
- Why it’s so tempting to lower prices and discount (even successful businesses do this!)
- The biggest pitfall of discounting and lowering pricing (this one will surprise you!)
- What to do instead of trying to sell to anyone and everyone
For more information on what Delta is doing, check out this article: https://thepointsguy.com/news/delta-skymiles-changes/

Want to hear what it’s like to work in a family business?
This week, we pull back the curtain and talk about the topics most people are curious about when they hear we’re a mother-daughter team:

So you made a “bad” business decision…now what?
Eavesdrop on Us
05/30/23 • 28 min
We’re talkin’ “bad” business decisions in this episode.
You know, the ones where you hired someone to help you with your business, you said yes to investing in something to grow your business, or you hired an employee...
...and it just didn’t work out? So you then beat the crap out of yourself for making that decision?
Yeah, those decisions!
Well, we’ve got some thoughts ‘em, like...
- Why most business owners fall into the “I’m a terrible business owner!” after they made a “bad” decision
- Why we stopped using the word “bad” to describe business decisions that didn’t go exactly like we wanted them to
- How to avoid thinking about a “bad” business decision for weeks, months, or years after you made it
- How to use “bad” decisions to your advantage as a business owner
*Important Disclaimer: in this episode, we’re not referring to business-related decisions that negatively or significantly affect your overall financial, physical, or emotional well-being.

Have trouble taking time off from your business?
Well, you’re not alone. A lot of entrepreneurs do.
Today, we’re not gonna tell you you have to take time off (you already know you should).
Instead, we’re digging into *why* it's so challenging to take time off.
And we’ve got some thoughts, like...
- How we define downtime/time off from the business (it’s not the “laptop lifestyle”)
- How to squash the guilt ridden “entrepreneur martyr thoughts” (like, “I didn’t work hard enough to take time off!”)
- How we should stop thinking of “downtime” as a reward and more of an essential ingredient to our business’s success
