Mostly All Figured Out

Y'all, today, I’m bringing you an episode that will resonate with anyone who's ever questioned their path, felt stuck in a role that didn’t quite fit, or wondered, What do I actually want my life to look like?

I’m joined by the incredible Kate Welshofer—writer, speaker, content creator, and self-proclaimed mischief-maker. You may recognize her from her days as a TV news anchor, most recently as the host of Most Buffalo on WGRZ. Now, she's a content creator, the creative force behind The Secret Monster Project, and the Communications and Content Strategist for the National Comedy Center in Jamestown, NY. Kate is all about spreading joy, embracing change, and proving that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.

In this episode, Kate opens up about:

✨ The winding road that took her from news anchor to content creator

✨ The power of just doing something you enjoy—without attaching pressure to the outcome

✨ How breaking away from societal expectations allowed her to truly find herself

✨ Why making a change doesn’t have to mean having it all figured out (#amiright!?)

This week's episode was recorded in the fabulous Mercury Salon in Allentown with salon owner, my hairdresser for years, and most importantly, my friend and fairy godmother, Felicia Cardinale!
To know Felicia, is to love Felicia. Unless you've crossed her, then GOD SPEED. She is as real as they come and though she's dealt with some heavy trials in life, she still makes room in her heart for everyone else's trials and troubles to be hashed over in her salon.
A self-proclaimed "hair-apist", she pulls on her own past experiences and healing journey to help her clients as best she can, even if that's just with a nonjudgmental listening ear.
While she might not be able to fix all your problems, she certainly can fix your hair. We talk current hair trends, the importance of continued training and learning in cosmetology, a life-changing decision she made to kick something out of her house, and so much more! Hope you enjoy this episode with this truly magical human!

We're back at the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library today! I was so honored and happy to have Jill Fecher in the hot seat this week. Jill is the Chief Growth Officer at Cypress North, a digital marketing agency that absolutely slays at web development. As a freelancer, I've often wondered what it would be like to ditch regularly scrambling for clients and join a team where I could focus more on the work, but I didn't feel like I really understood agencies or agency culture. We get into that and so much more in this episode!
Wondering what to do and what not to do in an interview? Jill has some examples! We also talk about what type of talent mid-sized marketing agencies, like Cypress North, are really looking for.
Many laughs were had and great tips given for moving forward in any career. Hope you enjoy!

Back again with another solo episode! This week I convince you (me) that I am not going to let myself skip posting a weekly podcast for a full year. For real. WE'RE IN IT TO WIN IT. I also shared more about my love for the Insight Timer app, including my favorite teacher on there, Kenneth Soares. I listen to this recording of his just about every single day. My 7-year-old listens to Max, Bee, & the Troll King sleep story every night, too. We both highly recommend! I also shared that Jax and I will often listen to kids affirmations on the way to school. I LOOOOOVE doing this with him in the morning! Here's the one we listen to in Spotify. I hope you feel inspired and find something that helps you after listening to this episode. Thanks, friends!

Aaaaaaaaand we're back. I won't bore y'all with what life has been like the last couple of months that led to another podcast hiatus. Well, actually I will, but I'll save it for a solo episode.
More importantly, I'm THRILLED to share my conversation with Justin Hofschneider of Wine on Hertel (WOH)! Justin and I met ages ago when he first soft opened WOH and I was "writing articles" for Step Out Buffalo. Sadly, the article I was supposed to write for his business was never written (sounds believable doesn't it?), but years later, he ended up dating my sister! And now he's the awesome Step Daddy J to my three nieces and my nephew.
In our episode, we talked about his side of the story of their relationship (My sister Liz gave her side in the controversial episode #47) and how he transitioned from single business owner bachelor to doing school pick-ups and making dinners for 6. We also talk about how Wine on Hertel began and the slow process it was to making it what it is today - coming up on year 10!
We talked a lot about perspectives and the importance of taking nothing for granted. There are lessons around every corner if you are open to learning them. Hope you enjoy this episode, and if you do, please share!

And be sure to stop by for a glass of wine and some delicious tapas!
