    Ep #251 The Roadmap to Create Your Desires and Always Be Reinventing

    Living in Southern France for the summer I turned 50 days was just a crazy dream five years ago. Last week, I boarded a plane to make it happen. Me, living among the Lavender, and you launching, growing or scaling a delicious business are not so different. On the podcast, I share with you the exact process I used to create my 'impossible' desire into reality and it is the same one you need to build your dream food business. I share my story and give you the roadmap for becoming the kind of person who makes impossible dreams and desires inevitable.  And finally, I share with you about why we must always be reinventing ourselves and our businesses to truly thrive.  As part of my own reinvention, I'm taking a little break from the podcast to live a more laissez-faire life this summer. Just because I have released an episode a week for nearly five years, doesn't mean that is how it always needs to be. Give yourself permission to rethink yourself and your business and approach it with a new perspective.  PS - I'm writing this as I look out over the Mediterranean from the hills of Cassis and feeling so grateful for my past self who didn't give up on her desire and hooked her future self up! 🎄The Holiday Ready Bootcamp 🎄kicks off August 11th!

    Ep #249 Get Out of Your Head and Into Your Internal Guidance System

    When things get tough, most entrepreneurs make decisions from fear and scarcity—but what if there was a better way? In this episode, I explore why your internal guidance system (aka intuition) is actually your secret weapon for navigating uncertainty, finding creative solutions, and making aligned business decisions that feel good in your body.  You'll learn the science behind why fear-based decisions hurt your business, discover practical ways to tap into your inner wisdom, and experience a guided meditation designed to open your mind to new possibilities and partnerships. Get Intuitive Answers from Marie Manucherchi  What if questions to get you started. Write them daily in your journal, post them by your computer or put them on your phone. Play with them - expand on them to fit your situation. Ponder them often and allow for a crack into possibility. What if everything is ALWAYS working out for me? What if I have access to everything I need to create a successful business? What if a beautiful business is easier than I ever thought? What if this business could be more fun than I ever imagined? What if following my joy brings me the most fulfillment I have ever experienced? What if I wasn't scared to take a risk or make an investment in my dreams? What if I followed my intuition and it led me to the most creative answers every time? What if I am letting go and allowing my internal guidance system to lead me to a delicious business I love? What if people are out there who can help me do this faster and have more fun?  What if it's possible for me to make money while doing what I love? What if I trust myself to make amazing decisions? What if people want what I have to offer and are ready and excited to pay for it? What if it was easy? 🎄The Holiday Ready Bootcamp 🎄kicks off August 11th!

    Ep 246 Creating a Full-Time Ecommerce Bean Business Their Way with Patty & Caroline of Well Bean

    It doesn't matter how much money you have, your age, your current job, or your experience, a beautiful business is possible for you if you are willing to keep taking action and get outside of your comfort zone.  This is exactly what Patty & Caroline, co-founders of Well Bean, makers of bean-focused bars and desserts (and they are delicious!) are doing. I've been so impressed working with them over the years as they keep making progress and taking calculated risks to advance their business.

    Ep #245 The Courage to Connect: Vulnerability as Your Brand-Buildng Superpower

    When was the last time you shared something real about yourself to your current or potential customers? I know it’s not what you want to hear - you just want to make a great product and have everyone fall in love with it, tell everyone they know and buy it repeatedly - but that's simply not enough to get traction as a small brand.  On today's podcast I share the secret to small business success - that being vulnerable is one of the fastest ways to create new and raving fans.   People don’t just want your product — they want to know you. 🎄The Holiday Ready Bootcamp 🎄kicks off August 11th!

    Ep #244 Test Before You Invest with Lara Fordis: Market Research Strategies to Inform Your Business Decisions

    Market research can make a huge difference in your product offering and launch strategy, but bad data can be worse than no data at all according to my guest,  Lara Fordis.  In this episode, Lara returns to discuss how market research has evolved in the CPG industry over the past four years, particularly with the emergence of AI tools that have made research both more accessible and potentially misleading. Lara shares insights on how entrepreneurs can properly validate their product ideas beyond the "echo chamber" of friends and family, highlighting the importance of getting feedback from representative target audiences who will actually pay for your product. We learn about the benefits of in-home use testing (IHUT), how to avoid common survey pitfalls like double-barreled questions, and why understanding your product's unique differentiation is crucial for success.  Whether you're launching a new food product or scaling your existing brand, this conversation provides valuable perspectives on gathering meaningful consumer insights that can save you from costly mistakes and help you develop a viable market proposition.
