    The Bubbles Effect: Wednesday Power Hour with Jordan Ostroff

    What if building a successful law firm (or small business) didn’t require sacrificing your life, your health… or your flip flops? 🩴 In this power hour episode, I sit down with Jordan Ostroff, law firm owner, CEO mentor, and founder of Lawyer With a Life , to talk about what it really takes to design a business that supports your life instead of consuming it. Jordan went from working 70+ hours a week, drowning in debt, and feeling completely burned out… to rebuilding his firm from the ground up after cutting $140,000 in bad marketing. Today, he works just 24 hours a week, by choice, and teaches other law firm owners how to do the same. And one thing he makes very clear?Working yourself into the ground is not a badge of honor. It’s not “risk” to change. The real risk is staying stuck. 💯 We dive into: Why “burn it down and rebuild” isn’t as risky as you think The mental health crisis in the legal profession (and why it matters) How multi-impact events (think golf + networking + fun) generate more business than Google Ads Why you should live off your calendar, not your inbox The delegation mindset shift most entrepreneurs get wrong How to use AI to prepare for better delegation And why even Andy Warhol built a factory instead of doing everything himself 🎨 Jordan also shares practical steps you can take today:✔️ Delegate one thing✔️ Add one multi-impact event to your calendar✔️ Start designing your ideal month , not just surviving your current one This episode is about designing a better life so you can build a better business and proving to yourself that you’re capable of more than you think. ❤️ If you’ve ever felt buried in your own success… this one’s for you. Connect with Jordan here:JordanOstroff.com or find him on social as @lawyerwithalife. And as always, if something resonates, don’t just nod along, take one action in the next 30 minutes! Because just like bubbles… we rise to the top 🥂

    The Bubbles Effect Classic Bubbly Convo with Krystal Jugarap

    It's Friday which means it's a classic bubbly convo 🥂 This week I sip and chat with Krystal Jugarap, brand visibility strategist and founder of EM/POWEREDbyWMN, a national community uplifting women entrepreneurs through connection, collaboration, and sustainable visibility. 📣 We dive into Krystal’s journey from creative side projects and product launches to building a thriving, hybrid community that supports hundreds of women across the country. We talk about what sustainable visibility really looks like (spoiler: it’s not being everywhere all the time), why community beats hustle every time, and how showing up consistently, even when it feels uncomfortable, can completely change the trajectory of your business. Krystal also opens up about motherhood, entrepreneurship, leaving the 9–5, and why she believes work-life “balance” is really more of a dance. 💃 Plus, we get into events, systems, AI tools she loves, and how empowered women supporting other women creates momentum that no algorithm can replicate. Grab your drink, get comfy, and tune in for an honest, inspiring conversation about building visibility, confidence, and community, without burning yourself out. 🥂 Connect with Krystal here: www.empoweredbywmn.comIG: @iamkrystalj

    The Bubbles Effect: Wednesday Power Hour with Christina Bulkilvish

    In today’s episode of The Bubbles Effect, I’m joined by Christina Bulkilvish for an honest, grounded conversation about rebuilding self-trust, identity, and confidence after major life shifts. ✨ Christina shares her powerful personal journey, from surviving a domestic violence relationship to a career upheaval, and a life-altering concussion, to ultimately choosing herself, quitting her job, and stepping into a life of solo travel and purpose. We talk about how those experiences shaped her work helping ambitious people stop overthinking, break limiting patterns, and start creating lives they’re genuinely excited to wake up to. We dive into what solo travel teaches you about resilience and self-trust, how to rebuild your identity after heartbreak or a big transition, and why keeping small promises to yourself is one of the most powerful ways to move forward, in life and in business. ❤️ Christina also shares practical, actionable ways to get out of your own way, overcome analysis paralysis, and reconnect with what actually feels aligned, rather than what you think you should be doing. This is a quick, thoughtful and encouraging conversation about choosing yourself, taking small steps, and remembering that growth doesn’t have to be complicated to be meaningful. ✨ Topics we cover: Rebuilding after major life shifts Solo travel and resilience Self-trust, confidence, and identity Overcoming overthinking and analysis paralysis Taking aligned action in life and business I loved this conversation and I think you will too!

    The Bubbles Effect: Marketing + Mindset Monday

    It’s Monday, February 2nd, and in this short Marketing + Mindset episode of The Bubbles Effect, I’m sharing the most-clicked link from last week’s newsletter, plus a mindset thought that’s been sitting with me in a big way! On the marketing side, I’m diving into a brand-new social platform called Moltbook, a social network built entirely for AI agents. Humans aren’t allowed to participate (we can only observe), and it’s already sparked a lot of curiosity about how AI bots interact, collaborate, and create on their own. It’s not traditional social media, but it’s fascinating to watch where this could lead. 🤖 Then we shift into mindset. I share a quote that stopped me mid-scroll: “You have to be aggressive about living the life you want.” ✨ It sparked some honest reflection around time, goals, visibility, and the ways we sometimes hide behind being “busy” instead of being intentional. I open up about what’s been holding me back, especially when it comes to being visible, and why I know that has to change if I want the life I’m working toward. I’ll leave you with one simple question to think about this week:Are you aggressively going after the life you want to live and if not, why? As always, this is a quick episode meant to get you thinking, grounded, and moving forward as you start your week. Thanks for listening, and I’ll be back with great conversations later this week. 🥂 Read the article here: https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/ai-agents-social-media-platform-moltbook-rcna256738

    The Bubbles Effect Classic Bubbly Convo with Andrea Nanigian

    Life doesn’t always follow the plan we so carefully map out and this conversation is a powerful reminder of what can happen when it doesn’t. In today’s classic bubbly chat, I’m joined by Andrea Nanigian, a former corporate sales leader whose life took an unexpected turn when her son became suddenly and seriously ill. What followed was a years-long season of caregiving, resilience, and redefining who she was outside of her career. That journey ultimately led her to create This Way Up, a podcast supporting parents and caregivers navigating mental health challenges, and later to launch Car Oracle, a white-glove auto concierge service for busy executives. We talk about what it really means to start over, how life’s hardest seasons can prepare you for entrepreneurship, and why humor, adaptability, and “just doing the thing” matter more than having a perfect plan. We also dive into marketing lessons, organic growth, using AI as a thinking partner, and why trust and relationships still win, especially in industries where skepticism runs high. This is one of those real, honest, life-didn’t-go-as-planned conversations with champagne, Diet Coke bubbles, and plenty of perspective along the way. Pour yourself something bubbly and settle in. 🥂 Connect with Andrea here: www.caroracle.com www.thiswayuppodcast.com

    The Bubbles Effect: Wednesday Power Hour with Scott DuPont

    In this episode of The Bubbles Effect, I’m joined by Scott Dupont, aka The Movie Finance Guy , and this conversation completely reframed how I think about funding, marketing, and building anything from the ground up. Scott has raised over $10 million for independent films, but what makes this episode so powerful is how transferable his insights are for any entrepreneur or creator. We talk about his unexpected path from corporate marketing at Xerox, to entrepreneurship, to becoming a working actor, producer, and now a go-to expert in film finance. 🎥 We break down: Why marketing has to come first... before the product, service, or film is even made How to think about funding like an entrepreneur (not just “bootstrapping”) The importance of building the right team with real experience Why having “skin in the game” matters more than the dollar amount Where investors actually come from (and when not to approach strangers) Creative ways to use crowdfunding, equity, and even product placement as long-term marketing plays Scott also shares how movies are essentially startups, why gross revenue beats profit-based promises, and how entrepreneurs today are living in a true renaissance of opportunity thanks to podcasts, social media, and digital reach. 📲 If you’ve ever thought about starting a business, raising money, launching a creative project, or even investing in one , this episode will give you a whole new lens. 🥂 Plus, Scott shares details about his podcast Finance Your Movie and offers advice for anyone sitting on a story or idea they’d love to bring to life! It's a great conversation that you don't want to miss! Connect with Scott here: www.MovieFinanceGuy.comCheck out his podcast: Finance YOUR Movie on all podcasting platforms P.S.

    The Bubbles Effect: Monday Marketing + Mindset

    It’s a Monday episode of The Bubbles Effect, which means I’m sharing the most-clicked link from last week’s Friday newsletter, plus a mindset reset to start your week strong.🙌 This week, I'm talking about the recent shakeup with TikTok, what the platform changes mean for creators and business owners, and why some users are already experimenting with new social platforms. On the mindset side, I dive into the idea of creating an unbreakable mindset, inspired by a talk rooted in the teachings of Napoleon Hill. I explore self-talk, discipline, repetition, and why success often comes down to the conversations you’re having with yourself... especially when things feel hard or uncertain. ❤️ If you’re navigating change in your business (or life) and need a grounded way to refocus, this episode is for you. P.S ✨ Something new is coming next week... built for business owners who want clarity, momentum, and support. Stay tuned.

    The Bubbles Effect: Wednesday Power Hour with Amanda Spann

    This week on The Bubbles Effect, I sit down with Amanda Spann, author, entrepreneur, and one of the leading voices helping non-technical founders turn ideas into apps without losing their sanity (or their savings). 💸 If you’ve ever thought, “I think my business might need an app… but I have no idea where to start,” this conversation is for you. Amanda shares her own journey from the music industry into tech, how imposter syndrome almost kept her out of the space entirely, and what finally shifted when she realized you don’t need to be a coder (or live in a dark basement fueled by Mountain Dew, ha) to build powerful software. We talk honestly about the mistakes she made building her first app, why so many founders lose time and money in the process, and how things have dramatically changed thanks to AI, no-code, and low-code tools. We also dig into one of my favorite parts of the conversation: how to know if you even need an app at all. Amanda breaks down her “vitamin vs. painkiller vs. oxygen” framework, shares real examples of when an app makes sense (and when it doesn’t), and explains why lived experience and domain expertise are now the biggest competitive advantage in tech. Plus, we talk about her upcoming book, I Have an App Idea, which walks founders step-by-step through building a revenue-ready app, without tech skills, and why this moment in time is one of the most accessible ever for everyday innovators. 💥 If you’re curious about apps, AI, GPTs, scalability, or how technology can actually give you time back instead of creating more overwhelm, you’re going to love this episode 🥂Connect with Amanda here: Theappaccelerator.com@theamandaspann Preorder her book here: https://www.amazon.com/Have-App-Idea-Essential-Building/dp/1964686571
