    The Sisterhood Sessions: Episode 5 with Lauren Moyer

    Even though you’re a solopreneur, you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. This belief is exactly why I created The Solopreneur Sisterhood and why I’d love to have you join us for our first virtual conference, Gather & Grow. Gather & Grow isn’t just another online conference. It’s an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day demands of your business, make meaningful progress on what matters most, and build genuine relationships with other heart-centered women who understand the journey. As we count down to the conference, I’m introducing you to some of the incredible women who will be sharing their wisdom with our community. Today, I’m excited to introduce you to Lauren Moyer, a licensed clinical social worker and somatic practitioner who helps women recognize unconscious patterns and begin living from possibility. In our conversation, we talk about: ✨ Why knowing what you should do isn’t always enough to actually take action, and why awareness is only the beginning. ✨ How confidence often grows because of taking action, rather than something we need to have before we begin. ✨ Why procrastination, perfectionism, and the feeling that we’re “not ready yet” may be connected to deeper patterns that are trying to protect us. Lauren also shares how she’ll help conference attendees explore the protective patterns that may be quietly shaping their decisions and keeping them stuck. Together, they’ll begin looking beyond the familiar patterns and exploring what’s possible when we can approach ourselves with greater curiosity and compassion. If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “I know what I need to do. So why am I not doing it?” or you’ve been waiting to feel ready before taking the next step in your business, I think you’ll really enjoy this conversation. And if you’ve been longing for a place where you can learn practical strategies, have honest conversations, and build genuine relationships with other purpose-driven women, I’d love to invite you to join us for Gather & Grow this October. Learn more and join us right here. And when you register before August 26th, you’ll also get access to Lauren’s bonus pre-conference workshop: Becoming Familiar With Your Future.

    Episode #20: How to Find Business Friends (Even If You're Introverted)

    Show Notes In this episode, Becky and Jason continue their conversation about community by exploring one of the most overlooked parts of entrepreneurship: the importance of business friendships. Drawing from Becky’s own experience as an introvert, they discuss how genuine relationships can provide encouragement, accountability, fresh perspectives, and support in ways that strategies and business plans simply can’t. Together, they talk about where business friendships begin, how to nurture them over time, and why introverts often bring unique strengths to building meaningful connections. They also share practical ways to meet like-minded business owners, move past the fear of rejection, and create relationships that make the entrepreneurial journey feel less lonely. Most importantly, this episode is a reminder that while you may be building your business on your own, you don’t have to build it alone. In this episode, you’ll learn: * Why supportive relationships can help you stay motivated and keep moving forward * How introverts can use their natural strengths to build authentic connections * Practical ways to find business friends online and through networking communities * How to overcome the fear of rejection when putting yourself out there * Why a few meaningful relationships often have a greater impact than a large network Inspiration for this week: Who are the people cheering you on in your business? And if you don’t have those relationships yet, what’s one small step you could take this week to begin finding your business friends?

    The Sisterhood Sessions: Episode 4 with Debbie Mitten

    Even though you’re a solopreneur, you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. This belief is exactly why I created The Solopreneur Sisterhood and why I’d love to have you join us for our first virtual conference, Gather & Grow. Gather & Grow isn’t just another online conference. It’s an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day demands of your business, make meaningful progress on what matters most, and build genuine relationships with other heart-centered women who understand the journey. As we count down to the conference, I’m introducing you to some of the incredible women who will be sharing their wisdom with our community. Today, I’m excited to introduce you to Debbie Mitten, a business mentor who helps women transition from the corporate world into entrepreneurship while building businesses that align with who they truly are. In our conversation, we talk about: ✨ Why success doesn’t have to come from constantly pushing harder, and how rest can become one of your most effective business strategies. ✨ The mindset shift from thinking like an employee to leading like the CEO of your own business. ✨ How comparison, perfectionism, and people-pleasing quietly hold so many entrepreneurs back from building businesses they genuinely enjoy. Debbie also shares how she’ll help conference attendees recognize the patterns that keep them stuck and begin making the mindset shifts that lead to greater confidence, clarity, and sustainable growth. Instead of simply learning another business strategy, attendees will leave with a new way of thinking about themselves and the businesses they’re building. If you’ve ever struggled to slow down, questioned whether you’re “doing enough,” or found yourself comparing your business to everyone else’s, I think you’ll really enjoy this conversation. And if you’ve been longing for a place where you can learn practical strategies, have honest conversations, and build genuine relationships with other purpose-driven women, I’d love to invite you to join us for Gather & Grow this October.

    Episode #19: Moving Beyond Networking and Building Real Relationships

    Show Notes In this episode, Becky and Jason continue their conversation about the power of community by exploring a question many solopreneurs struggle with: What if networking didn’t have to feel awkward? Drawing from Becky’s own experiences attending networking events over the years, they discuss why so many people have a negative view of networking and how shifting your focus from finding clients to building relationships can completely change the experience. Together, they talk about the role of curiosity, generosity, and authentic connection in creating a business that’s built on trust rather than transactions. They also share practical tips for introverts, how to follow up in a way that feels genuine, and why some of the best business opportunities come from relationships that develop over time. Most importantly, this episode is a reminder that networking isn’t about collecting contacts; it’s about building meaningful relationships with people you genuinely enjoy getting to know. In this episode, you’ll learn: * Why networking often feels uncomfortable (and how to approach it differently) * How curiosity can replace comparison and open the door to new opportunities * Why generosity often creates stronger, longer-lasting business connections * Practical ways to follow up after networking events without feeling salesy * How authentic relationships can lead to referrals, collaborations, and unexpected opportunities over time Inspiration for this week: What if your next networking event wasn’t about finding clients? What if it was simply an opportunity to meet someone whose life (and business) might become part of your journey?

Kirstin also shares how she’ll help conference attendees turn all of those ideas, goals, and scattered notes into a practical roadmap they can start using immediately. Instead of walking away with pages of notes and more things to remember, attendees will leave with a clear plan for what to focus on next.
