I was on a podcast! We talked all things team + growth


Hi Reader,

🎙️ I recently was the guest on a podcast! It was so fun!

A new episode of the Shop Talk Podcast is live, and I had the chance to join Taylor Walden for a really good conversation.

We covered a lot of ground. Practical HR basics many business owners overlook. When outsourcing actually helps instead of complicating things. And how to build real professional relationships without awkward tactics or forced networking.

We also talked about my own career path. It hasn’t been straight or predictable. Every role, detour, and unexpected turn shaped how I think about leadership and the people side of the business today.

Here’s a snapshot of what we discussed:

  • HR foundations growing businesses can’t afford to skip
  • Networking that feels natural and human
  • Why a non-linear career isn’t a disadvantage
  • How faith has influenced my decisions along the way

If you’ve ever wondered whether your path is “normal,” or felt like you were learning as you went, this episode will likely resonate

Hi Reader, Here’s something most people don’t realize: This isn’t about one difficult conversation. It’s about how you lead. 🧭 The Shift That Changes Everything When you move from avoiding → addressing… You become a different kind of leader. Clear instead of hesitant Direct instead of indirect Trusted instead of second-guessed And your team feels it immediately. 🔁 This Won’t Be the Last Time As your business grows, you’ll face: Performance issues Misalignment Tough decisions Hard feedback...

Welcome to Q2, 2026 Can you believe it? Here we are. Before I jumped into the next 90 days, I did something I always tell my clients to do — I stopped. I looked back at Q1 and actually acknowledged what got done. And honestly? That pause felt good. Celebrate the wins before the "what's still left" list pulls you back under. On the business side: website updates, new automations, and a whole lot of connecting — locally and internationally. Meeting new people in places I've never been is...

Hi Reader, Let me say this directly: Winging difficult conversations is what causes most of the damage. Not the conversation itself—The lack of preparation. 🚫 Why Conversations Go Wrong Most leaders: Go in without a clear structure React emotionally in the moment Or avoid saying what actually needs to be said And afterward? They think: “I should’ve handled that better.” 🔧 There’s a Better Way Before any important conversation, you should know: What you’re actually addressing What outcome you...
