I have a podcast…. maybe?!
I listen to podcasts alllll the time but I never seriously thought about putting one together myself.
Frankly, it just felt like “another thing” I needed to do in my content efforts, and just thinking about it felt overwhelming!
But then, I figured – hey, I LOVE listening to podcasts… why can’t I do something simple to test out the idea and see if my audience likes it? After all, I teach entrepreneurs to be curious and run little experiments in their business, so it’s time I practice what I preach.
So, let me introduce you to the Create Your Purpose® Conversations!
My vision is to share inspiring women with you – the kind of women who are doing the work to build their businesses and lives with purpose and on purpose.
It was a no-brainer to begin with Cherilyn Yazzie, owner and founder of Coffee Pot Farms. She is a Navajo woman who founded her farm in Dilkon, Arizona to provide fresh food to her community, something that is hard to come by because of the remoteness of the reservation.
Cherilyn is also a member of my Create Your Purpose Collective so I’ve been privy to her journey behind-the-scenes to build her business and man am I inspired!
Will this be a real, consistent podcast updated consistently? No idea! But, I’d love to know if you’re interested in that (comment below!).
Oh, and this episode was lovingly recorded from my bathtub. The pandemic work-from-home situation ain’t easy! So please know that this episode is FAR from perfect (and as a recovering perfectionist, this is hard for me to admit) and I hope to continue to get better over time with the technical aspects of it all.
In this episode, we talked about: 5:50 ~ How she began Coffee Pot Farms and why 10:00 ~ Her fear of leaving her full-time job to begin a farm 14:52 ~ Why advocacy and activism is integral to her business 20:52 ~ The routines + rituals that keep her sane 26:07 ~ The ways Cherilyn and her husband hold each other accountable 28:30 ~ The importance of social media for her business during the pandemic 31:10 ~ Rapid-fire question round! The post Cherilyn Yazzie, Farmer & Owner of Coffee Pot Farms first appeared on Quinn Tempest.
