You can’t spell message without mess—because big ideas don’t show up fully formed. They start rough, unrefined, and a little all over the place. But that’s not a problem, it’s part of the process.
The best speakers, thought leaders, and business owners don’t wait for the perfect message—they refine it by showing up, sharing, and shaping their ideas in real time.
That’s what The Ramble Refinery is all about.
Welcome to the place where we normalize the messy middle of speaking, marketing, and business growth. Whether you’re leading workshops, speaking on stages, or showing up on podcasts, your voice isn’t just a marketing tool—it’s your most valuable business asset.
Hosted by Heather Sager, a speaking coach and business strategist who helps experts get their ideas out of their heads and into the world, this podcast dives into the raw, unpolished side of refining your message, using your voice, and growing your impact.
Because every great message starts as a mess—so get ready to ramble.

Why You Should Break Up with Your Phone
The Ramble Refinery with Heather Sager
07/15/20 • 48 min
The relationship we have with our smartphones is arguably the most intimate relationship in our lives. It’s a sad truth.
Mental clarity, social skills, memory and focus are significantly (and negatively) impacted by the tool that also provides so much value and connectivity.
I’m NOT encouraging you to get rid of your phone, but rather reassess your relationship, because if you want to show up in a magnetic way, you need space to be creative and shine.
This conversation today is brought to you as part of a new series on the podcast called Backwards Book Club.
It’s where I read a book and bring you the cliff notes (via a discussion with myself.. aka book club) to shine a light on topics that will help you become a more magnetic entrepreneur.
This week, I’m highlighting the incredible book:
How to Break Up with Your Phone: the 30 day plan to take back your life by Catherine Price
(Catherine also has an AMAZING 3 day breakup challenge via the above link I HIGHLY recommended).

Jill Stanton: Be Unapologetically You
The Ramble Refinery with Heather Sager
06/09/21 • 62 min
Putting yourself out there can feel HARD. And being completely real, BOLD and opinionated? It can be terrifying (what will people think?!). So while many say they WANT to stand out, they choose instead to blend in.
But not today’s guest.
I wanted episode 100 to be special, so I sat down with the incredible Jill Stanton of Screw the Nine to Five for a real talk convo about life, business, being a mom and making noise.
In this episode, Jill opens up and shares her struggle of self-doubt, how she stays future focused and positive by changing her thoughts, and of course, we’ll talk about how Jill approaches speaking on a stage.

Your Perception of Fluffy Content Is Sabotaging Sales
The Ramble Refinery with Heather Sager
01/10/22 • 43 min
In an effort to be more concrete, more valuable and stand out from the “fluffy crap” online, far too many struggling entrepreneurs focus on packing “how to” content into their marketing.
It makes sense, on the surface, we’re all tired of the fluffy training disguised as “mindset” work, so we set out to share tangible, practical information that can truly serve our ideal customers.
But I don’t have to tell you that a plethora of free, “how to” content already exists on the internet. So if your audience truly wanted that information, they’d have it by now.
So the question is: if “how to” content isn’t the answer, but neither is the fluffy stuff...how do you attract clients with your content?
The answer? INFLUENCE. You must gain their buy-in to your ideas aka your content. And in this episode I’m tackling 3 ways you can do so using elements from my Influence Framework. Enjoy.
