Sometimes finding yourself in adulthood looks a lot like getting back to who you were as a child… Welcome to the Napkin Notes Podcast! Hosted by me! Elizabeth Evans. I want to help us pick back up the pieces of who we used to be, the pieces of ourselves we really loved and cherished, that somehow were left behind along the way. Helping to remind us all who we once were before the world told us who to be. And not necessarily through hard conversations or deep therapy (albeit, I'm a big fan of both). But simply through things like: - Reminding ourselves how to be in community, - Sharing our non-linear stories of stumbling into unexpected passions, - Re-learning our favorite recipes, - Chatting about our most-loved family traditions, and - Throwing memorable, yet effortless girl’s nights. And who am I you ask? I’m Elizabeth :) Owner+Founder of Elizabeth Evans Media. I began my agency in 2018 and have produced dozens of top podcasts from world renowned musicians, impactful content creators, and best selling authors. One thing has remained true throughout this entrepreneurship journey: I love the feeling of connection through storytelling - with a little flair of southern hospitality. So in that spirit, I’ll be inviting on guests that have a passion for connection, generosity, and of course, great taste, to keep us inspired to write out our own story well - while obviously giggling along the way. You’ll hear from women like: - Olivia Adriance about the tenacity of building a dream community of over 1 million likeminded food lovers and how a mother’s influence at a young age can bring about a tradition of making tasty meals. - And from Cortney LaCorte of Cheesegal on her own Napkin Note moment that started her brand (that will soon materialize into a cookbook!) - and how an unexpected family friend cultivated her love of gatherings. - And from Mallory Ervin about how growing up with 22 first cousins crafted her familial loyalty and how that support encouraged her to pursue big dreams from Miss America to the Amazing Race. Essentially, if you love handwritten letters, flower arrangements, family traditions, intentional questions, and a good cocktail – I think you'll quickly find your place here. I want to bring us back to ourselves, and I believe we can do that through inviting small Notes of Nostalgia into each of our days. And I’m just so glad you’re here. I’m Elizabeth and this is the Napkin Notes Podcast. www.elizabethevans.co2024 Arte

  • 22. The Story Behind How I Started My Business [and four steps if you want to start one, too]
    Sep 21 2025

    Have you ever felt a nudge to pursue something more, but weren't quite sure what that "more" might be? In this candid solo episode, I'm peeling back the curtain on my journey from data analyst to accidental entrepreneur, and how I built a podcast production agency.

    I'm sharing the pivotal moments that shaped my path, including:

    • The conference that sparked my passion for storytelling and marketing
    • The moments I felt a nudge from Holy Spirit that led to an important encounter at a coffee shop
    • The importance of being open to God's guidance and unexpected opportunities
    • Practical tips for aspiring entrepreneurs looking to find their niche

    You'll learn about the challenges I faced, the lessons I learned, and how I navigated the transition from a 9-to-5 job to full-time entrepreneurship. I'll also reveal the strategies that helped me carve out a unique space in the podcasting industry.

    Key takeaways from this episode:

    • Why it's crucial to "show up" even when you're not sure of the outcome
    • How to identify and leverage your unique combination of skills
    • The power of taking on beta clients and learning as you go
    • Balancing faith, intuition, and strategic planning in business
    • The importance of defining your scope of work early on

    Whether you're considering a career pivot, dreaming of starting your own business, or simply curious about the behind-the-scenes of podcast production, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration.

    Join me as I reflect on the unexpected twists and turns that led me to where I am today, and discover how you can embrace your own journey of growth and transformation.

    Sep 5 2025

    Chances are, you've seen Ashleigh's work...without knowing you've actually seen Ashleigh's work. From Joanna Gaines to Halfbaked Harvest and Target to Delta, Ashleigh's photos have been seen near and far!

    In today's episode, I'm sitting down with the wonderful food and lifestyle photographer, Ashleigh Amoroso in her beautiful studio in Austin, TX. [If you're listening to this episode, I suggest viewing this one instead!!].

    We chatted about:

    • How she pivoted from her career at Apple to dipping her toes into photography
    • Why she showed up to her first shoot with JOANNA GAINES with an EYE PATCH
    • How she overcomes fear before starting something new
    • Food Photography tips for your next girl's night out
    • Why you don't need a guidebook on how to find your unique lane - you can create it yourself

    This was truly such a beautiful conversation. Also -- come to find out, she went to the same, tiny highschool as my cousin in Baton Rouge?! Small world.

    Anyway, follow Ashleigh here! You'll love her! https://www.instagram.com/ashleighamoroso/

    • [00:58] Why I moved from Austin to Wayne
    • [05:21] Noticing the nudge to move
    • [09:45] How to utilize the exercise of ‘trying on’ a decision to make a life change
    • [11:34] How to know WHEN it’s time to make a change

    • [26:28] What to do during the in between time of a change
