    The Fear of What People Think Is Holding You Back: Here’s How to Push Through It

    Ever rewritten a caption a dozen times, held back a launch, or stayed off camera because you were worried about what people would think? You’re not alone. When we asked women at a recent Rally event what they’d most love to let go of, almost every answer came back to the same thing: fear of what other people think. In this episode, Emily and Rachel are BACK after a (longer than planned) break. They catch up on a full season of life, including Rachel’s husband coming home from an unexpected deployment, kindergarten decisions, and Emily turning 30. Then they dig into the fear of visibility: why it never fully goes away no matter how much your business grows, and what to do about it. You’ll learn:     •    Why people buy the person, not just the service, and why your vulnerable content often connects the most     •    How to name exactly what feels uncomfortable about showing up     •    How to weigh the cost of staying hidden against the cost of showing up scared     •    Practical tools for hard moments, from rip-the-bandaid posting and planned courage to hype videos and documenting the lows     •    How a Rally member went from a hesitant idea to opening a brick-and-mortar store in two months “The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.” (Proverbs 29:25) If you’re a Christian woman building a business, this is your reminder that you’re playing on a different field. You don’t have to be fearless. You just have to keep showing up. 🎉 Try Rally, a community for Christian female entrepreneurs, for your first 30 days for just $30: https://letsrallytogether.com/  📲 Follow along on Instagram: @letsrallytogether Timestamps  0:00 Welcome back 1:10 Life catch-up: business, kids, deployment, and turning 30 8:20 Why fear of what others think holds so many women back 9:50 People buy the person behind the business 10:45 Rachel’s most vulnerable posts and going viral 14:30 Step 1: Name what’s uncomfortable 15:25 A Rally member’s brick-and-mortar launch 17:30 Step 2: Why does it grip you, and what does it cost? 17:50 Proverbs 29:25 and the fear of man 19:40 Practical tools: rip the bandaid, pray, and tell someone 22:35 Hype videos and documenting the hard moments 25:10 Doing hard things on purpose 27:05 Planning ahead so you can be brave 28:45 Working backward from the big dream 29:30 How to join Rally CONTACT: support@letsrallytogether.com ADVERTISE ON THE SHOW: To inquire about host-read ads or to become the show’s next Presenting Sponsor, please send an email to info@letsrallytogether.com.  EPISODE CREDITS: Podcast Cover Photography: Jay Barr Photography Podcast Production: Amplify Boutique  DISCLAIMERS: The views and opinions expressed in each episode are those of the individual contributors and do not necessarily reflect those of the podcast host and team or the owner of this Intellectual Property.

    Branding Isn’t Selfish (It’s Stewardship)

    What if the reason branding feels uncomfortable… is because you were taught the wrong definition? Recorded live at the Rally Retreat in 30A, this conversation between Rachel and special guest Sarah (brand strategist and messaging expert) peels back the curtain on one of the biggest struggles Christian entrepreneurs face: “I don’t want to make it about me.” If you’ve ever felt weird showing up online, struggled to talk about your work, or worried that confidence equals ego, this conversation will gently (and boldly) challenge that belief. You’ll hear: Why branding isn’t about appearances but about reflecting what’s already insideThe shift from “marketing feels manipulative” to “storytelling feels faithful”How confidence and conviction are not the same as egoWhy hiding your story can actually be rooted in pride, not humilityThe biblical foundation of storytelling and why it matters for your businessHow your everyday life (yes, even yogurt and chocolate chips) can reflect God’s joyWhy people don’t buy products...they buy stories they trustThe real danger of waiting until your brand feels “perfect”What working with high-profile individuals reveals about loneliness, humanity, and connectionHow community and storytelling combat isolation at every levelCONTACT: support@letsrallytogether.com ADVERTISE ON THE SHOW: To inquire about host-read ads or to become the show’s next Presenting Sponsor, please send an email to info@letsrallytogether.com.  EPISODE CREDITS: Podcast Cover Photography: Jay Barr Photography Podcast Production: Amplify Boutique  DISCLAIMERS: The views and opinions expressed in each episode are those of the individual contributors and do not necessarily reflect those of the podcast host and team or the owner of this Intellectual Property.

    Why Online Community Isn’t Enough (And What Happens When You Gather in Person)

    You can be in every Slack, Circle, and group chat…and still feel alone. Here’s why getting in the room changes everything. We’re recording live from our Rally Varsity retreat in Rosemary Beach, Florida, and pulling back the curtain on why in-person community is a non-negotiable for Christian female entrepreneurs. We’re talking about what actually shifts when you move from screen-to-screen connection to shoulder-to-shoulder presence- spiritually, psychologically, relationally, and in business. We’ve built Rally with online connection and in-person experiences on purpose, and in this conversation we explain why. This isn’t about more events or more noise. It’s about depth, alignment, and being fully known. You’ll hear: Why being physically in the room breaks down walls faster than any Zoom call ever couldThe psychological and spiritual impact of face-to-face connectionWhy retreats are meant to help you regroup, not perform or extract everything at onceHow faith-led community accelerates trust, clarity, and business growthThe hidden cost of staying isolated “just a little longer”How we think about conferences, retreats, and gatherings differently than most peopleWhy one takeaway from the right room can change everythingHow to show up to in-person spaces with open hands instead of hustle energyEncouragement for women who feel called to host spaces but worry they’re not readyWhy sometimes all it takes is an invitation to create belongingIf you’ve ever thought, “People don’t really get what I do,” or “I believe differently, build differently, and measure success differently,” this episode is for you.

    Your Network Is Your Net Worth (…If You Use It Right)

    Hot take: you can have community and still stall out. Here’s our cheat code: your network and yes!!!! there’s a right (and wrong) way to build it. In this episode, Rachel Awtrey and Emily Rowlett unpack the viral line “Your network is your net worth” and make it super practical. Think airport moving sidewalks and Mario Kart speed boosts: the right rooms, the right people, at the right time without being icky, transactional, or spread too thin. You’ll hear: Networking vs. Community (for real): friendships that hold you vs. contacts that move you forward—and why you need bothPicking the right rooms: how who you surround yourself with secretly defines your version of “success”No-icky networking: give/receive without keeping score, avoid “take-take-take” energy, and fix it fast if you’ve blown itFaith-forward strategy: why ordinary moments aren’t coincidences (and how God uses curiosity to open doors)A live trace-back: the surprising chain of connections that helped lead to Rachel’s book dealRally as your “gym”: a safe place to practice your networking reps so the rest of your life gets strongerIf you’ve ever thought, “I don’t know the right people,” this episode hands you the playbook, and the courage, to change that.
