    This Isn't Goodbye. This Is the Goal.

    After 968 episodes and nearly a decade, I'm pausing the Goal Digger Podcast. Season one is complete, and I'm so excited about what comes next. I've been searching for women who stepped back at the height of their careers not from crisis or failure but from peace, intention, and pure joy. Those stories are rare, so I'm modeling it in real time: what it looks like when a woman makes a conscious, celebratory choice to step away from something that's working because she's designed her life to have that freedom. Here's what lights me up about this: the through line of my entire business has always been about getting back your time. Me being able to make this choice right now, to pause a thriving seven-figure revenue stream while my business continues to run beautifully, is the ultimate proof that everything I've taught actually works. This is the goal we've been digging for all along. I'm not disappearing, I'm expanding. My courses, email list, and programs are still thriving and I'll be even more present and creative in those spaces. Will there be a season two? Maybe. I'm wide open to whatever magic emerges. Stay connected on my email list where I'm personally writing weekly: https://jennakutcher.com/penpals If you've been wondering what it looks like to build something meaningful, enjoy your success, and choose what comes next from a place of abundance and possibility, this one's for you.

    What My Husband Sees That the Internet Never Will

    Drew's back on the mic after a few years, and honestly, I wasn't sure what this conversation would uncover. We've been married for fourteen years, together for half of our lives, and we're standing at this threshold where both girls are finally in school full-time and we're asking ourselves: what do we actually want now? Not what we're supposed to want. Not what comes next on the achievement timeline. But what lights us up, what grounds us, what makes us feel alive. Drew never thought he'd be a stay-at-home dad. He definitely never thought he'd be the guy with chickens and a garden and a therapist he calls every week. But here we are, doing the deep work on ourselves both individually and as a couple, figuring out how to lead our marriage differently, how to raise kids who see activism and community service as normal, how to build a life that doesn't require us to be in a constant state of rush. We talk about intuition as a business superpower, why I'm actually an introvert who hates small talk, what happens when you finally stop performing and start slowing down, and the advice Drew would give to anyone partnered with an ambitious woman. This isn't some polished marriage advice episode. It's two people mid-journey, mid-evolution, learning that the best parts of life are often the simplest ones. If you've ever wondered what it looks like to build a marriage that doesn't follow traditional roles, if you're trying to figure out how to grow together while also growing individually, or if you're in a season where you're rediscovering who you are outside of your roles, this one's for you.

    The Price of Entrepreneurship No One Talks About (And Why I'd Pay It Again)

    Becoming an entrepreneur is the most expensive personal development program you will ever pay for, and I'm not even talking about the money. I'm talking about the version of yourself that you have to let die: the people pleaser who waits for permission, the woman who apologizes before she speaks, that part of you who thinks staying ahead of everything will finally make you safe. I've watched the “girl boss” era rise and fall. I've witnessed hustle culture get worshipped and then finally questioned. I've been in rooms I thought I needed to be in only to realize those weren't my rooms at all. Here's what I know: entrepreneurship is not just about building a business. It's about becoming someone who can. For women especially, this journey will ask you to unlearn almost everything you've been taught: to stop making yourself small, to stop waiting for permission, to stop apologizing for wanting more.

    How to Break Free From the System That Needs You to Doubt Yourself

    Anna Malaika Tubbs is a two-time New York Times bestselling author and a leading voice in gender, race, and equity. Her newest book Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden From Us is a wake-up call, one that challenges us to rethink everything from who gets remembered to who gets rewarded. I met Anna recently at a retreat hosted by Onsite in Tennessee and she was magnetic. The best part about meeting her is I had no idea what she did for a career and didn't learn about her books until the very last day. Once I heard what she was writing about, I knew she would make the perfect guest for this show. Anna pulls back the curtain on the narratives that have quietly shaped how we see ourselves, our businesses, and our worth. What sets her apart is her ability to take complex systems and translate them into powerful stories that reveal what's been buried and show us how to reclaim what's ours. And trust me, you'll never see patriarchy, power, or your own story the same way again.  So if you've ever felt like the rules of success weren't written for you, if you've struggled with visibility or making space for your full self in your business, if you've been playing small because it felt safer than being too much, this conversation is for you.

    10 Marketing Predictions for 2026 (That Won't Make You Want to Quit)

    When you read the title of this episode, you may have thought that I’m here to tell you about the next app you need to download or the algorithm hack you're already late to. But no… Goal Digger, I'm here to tell you what I'm seeing beneath the surface. The shifts that are happening whether we talk about them or not. The moves the sanest, smartest women I know are already making quietly. This isn't about keeping up. It's about seeing what's coming and deciding—on your terms—what you want to build toward. The future doesn't belong to the loudest or the busiest. It belongs to the women who built something they can actually sustain. Who chose presence over performance. Who said no to the parts of this that were slowly killing them. So let's talk about where we're headed. Not so you can add ten more things to your to-do list. But so you can exhale. So you can see what you've been feeling is not just you… It's the beginning of something new.

    A Conversation With My Mom About Time, Motherhood, and What Gets Passed Down

    Every time my mom comes on the show, you ask me to bring her back. You want her wisdom and her perspective, the way she sees straight through to what actually matters… and today, we’re giving the people what they want! My mom, Sue Shelerud, is intelligent, fierce, persuasive, empathetic, and deeply respected. Over the years, she built her impact face to face in classrooms and living rooms and hospital hallways. She shaped people and held space and asked the hard questions that made them think differently.  I realized that as I've gotten older, we need collectively to learn from women like her, the ones who led in different ways than we do, the ones whose platform looked different, but whose influence was undeniable. The ones who remind us that impact isn't about how loud you are, it's about how deeply you show up.  So today we're talking about motherhood and identity, about the differences between her generation and mine, about what it means to be a safe space for people, about what gets passed down when you lead with presence and not performance. This powerful conversation is for me, it's for my daughters, it's for anyone trying to learn from the women who came before us, the ones who did things differently, and the ones whose power showed up in ways we're only now learning to name.

    The Mic That Made Me: The Lessons I Never Expected to Learn from Podcasting

    When I started this show, I was working from home, building a business in isolation, and I felt like an imposter in every room I tried to enter. I thought maybe a podcast could help me feel less alone. Maybe it could help me prove I had something worth saying. And here's the part I never saw coming: I didn't think I could do solo episodes! I truly believed I needed a guest, a co-host, someone else to carry the conversation. But hundreds of episodes later, I can talk to a wall forever. I can hold space for an idea, unpack a framework, and connect with you, even though you're not responding in real time. That shift didn't happen overnight. It happened because I kept showing up. And along the way, this mic taught me more than any business course, any mentor, or any strategy ever could. Today, I want to share what I wish someone had told me about what's really possible when you start speaking your truth. Not the surface-level lessons about audio quality or interview techniques, but the deep, transformative shifts that happen when you give yourself permission to grow in public. Maybe you've felt that tug to use your voice, or you've been wondering if podcasting could be the thing that finally changes everything: I want you to understand what you're really signing up for… And why it might be the most important thing you ever do.

    Tired, Foggy, and Bloated? Your Body Isn't Broken: Here's What It's Telling You

    What if the fatigue, brain fog, or stubborn symptoms you’ve been brushing off are actually your body’s way of waving a red flag—one that could completely change your health if you knew how to read it? That’s exactly what happened to me a few years ago. I was stuck in a cycle of stress, exhaustion, and mystery symptoms I couldn’t quite name—until today’s guest stepped in. Check out The Being Collective here: http://jennakutcher.com/being  Brigid Titgemeier is a Functional Medicine Registered Dietitian and founder of BeingBrigid Functional Nutrition. She and her team have helped more than 25,000 people—everyone from Fortune 500 CEOs to busy moms—lower inflammation, balance hormones, improve gut health, and actually reclaim energy through evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle strategies.  In this conversation, we’re going to talk about the five biggest lessons from my own health journey with Brigid, what’s changed in the science of hormone health and nutrition since she was last here, and the exact steps you can take to support your body through stress, perimenopause, detoxification, and more. If you’ve been feeling tired, foggy, bloated, or depleted and you’re tired of trying “healthy” things that don’t actually make you feel better, this is for you. Brigid’s membership, The Being Collective, gives you the structure, strategy, and support to stop chasing symptoms and finally feel like yourself again.
