    Building Two Businesses While Raising a Family with Mariah Taubenheim

    When photography becomes more than a passion, and entrepreneurship intertwines with motherhood, something beautiful emerges. Mariah Taubenheim's journey in Wisconsin has currently evolved to running two successful businesses while living intentionally with her family. Mariah takes us back to her upbringing where she learned core values like respect and work ethic that later became foundational to her business philosophy. Her early fascination with cameras evolved into Simple Focus Studios, a photography business she started before becoming a mother. When her first daughter arrived, Mariah launched Raise Agency to maintain her entrepreneurial freedom while staying home with her baby. What sets Mariah apart isn't just her business skills, but her approach to balance. "You're replaceable everywhere but at home," she shares, explaining how this perspective guides her daily choices. Rather than working traditional hours, she structures intense work sessions during her children's nap times, keeping her priorities crystal clear. This philosophy extends to her team-building strategy, where she's learned to hire for existing skills and shared aesthetics rather than training from scratch. The conversation touches on everything from meeting her husband at Buffalo Wild Wings (where her friend left her number on a napkin) to setting healthy boundaries with social media. Her mantra that "work should never be the first, last, or hardest thing you do in your day" offers refreshing wisdom in a culture that often glorifies hustle above all else. As Mariah prepares for exciting rebrands and a new venture in Madison, her story reminds us that success doesn't require sacrifice when you align your work with your natural talents and stay grounded in what matters most. Ready to rethink how you approach work, creativity, and life's priorities? This episode might just change your perspective!!

    Evolving Identity: An Entrepreneurial Mother with Whitney Malish

    Meet Whitney Malish, the creative force behind Malish Home and our first-ever podcast guest this season! Whitney's journey from small-town Louisiana to successful entrepreneur and new mom embodies what it means to evolve authentically through life's biggest transitions. Whitney shares her remarkable path from being one of the first in her family to attend college, studying engineering at LSU, to pursuing her master's at Notre Dame where she met her husband John. With refreshing honesty, she opens up about ending a seven-year relationship to follow her dreams, building a new life in Wisconsin where she knew no one, and creating meaningful connections from scratch.  We also discuss her transition to motherhood after welcoming her son Mav. Rather than seeing this change as losing herself, she describes it as "becoming" – evolving into a version of herself she's excited to meet. Her candid insights about postpartum struggles and how motherhood has deepened her marriage offer comfort and wisdom to anyone facing major life transitions. Whether you're contemplating career shifts, relocating, starting a family, or simply seeking more authentic connections, Whitney's practical advice on following your passions while embracing change will inspire you to view evolution not as loss, but as expansion.

    Your Timeline Is Perfectly Yours

    Liv and Shelby delve into the damaging effects of comparison culture and how to stay confident in your own timeline despite what you see on social media and amongst friends. • Comparison is prevalent in your 20s when everyone is in different life stages • Being single isn't something to rush; it's valuable time to build independence • Maintaining your own identity within relationships is crucial for long-term happiness • Social media creates unrealistic standards by only showing people's highlight reels • Success in any area of life requires staying focused in your lane  • Everyone is on a different timeline based on their unique challenges and experiences • Celebrating others' milestones doesn't diminish your own worth or potential • Obstacles and struggles build character and develop valuable self-awareness • Your 20s aren't meant to be a time when you have everything figured out • The key to happiness is embracing where you are while still working toward your goals Send us a text Follow the Podcast: @evolveorrepeat.thepodcast Follow Liv: @livwerth @livedin.studio Follow Shelby: @the.shelbylenae

    Spring Cleaning Your Life

    There's something magical about throwing open windows after a long winter, letting fresh air flow through your home as you scrub away dust and clutter. But what if that same revitalizing energy could transform every corner of your existence? In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of life-wide spring cleaning – a comprehensive reset that goes far beyond organizing your closets. We explore seven key areas that deserve attention: physical spaces, mental clutter, overwhelming schedules, outdated goals, draining relationships, digital habits, and wellness approaches. Each represents a dimension of life where winter's heaviness might still linger, preventing you from fully stepping into spring's potential. Have you ever noticed how your physical environment mirrors your mental state? We certainly have. We share practical strategies for decluttering both your home and mind, including the powerful practice of "brain dumping" that literally transfers swirling thoughts from your head onto paper. We also examine how our society fails to prepare us for creating personal structure – making our twenties particularly challenging as we build systems from scratch. The most surprising revelation? The average person spends 6-8 hours daily on their phone – essentially a full workday! This digital consumption fundamentally changes how we experience reality. We offer actionable boundaries to reclaim this time while still staying connected to what matters. Whether you're feeling stagnant, overwhelmed, or simply ready for renewal, this episode provides the framework for a total life refresh. Because true spring cleaning isn't just about sparkling surfaces – it's about creating space for what genuinely matters in the season ahead. Ready to open all your windows and let the fresh air flow through? Listen now, then let us know which area of your life needs the biggest spring cleaning this year!
