  • Ep.83-This Is Your Brain on Marketing
    Apr 30 2025
    This Is Your Brain on Marketing Have you ever wondered why you fall for ads you know are too good to be true?Why you feel a twinge of FOMO after scrolling social media?Or why sometimes your brain says “yes” before you even know what’s happening? You’re not broken. You’re human.And today on The Seed, we dive deep into why that happens — and what it means for you, your business, and your mental health. I’m so excited because I had the absolute joy of sitting down with Nicole Powell, a powerhouse in the world of neuromarketing and brand strategy. Nicole broke down how marketing doesn’t just "influence" you — it taps into your subconscious in ways most of us don’t even realize. (Spoiler alert: even when you think you’re immune, you’re not.) Here’s a peek at what we cover: Neuromarketing 101: What it is, why it matters, and how brands use it to get inside your head (in ways you don't even notice). Why market research isn’t always enough: How people say one thing but do another — and why it matters for your brand strategy. The truth about marketing promises: Those “quick wins” you see online? Yeah... we’re breaking down why they often don’t work (and why it's not your fault when they don’t). The emotional cost of false marketing: How believing you’re “failing” because of empty promises damages your mindset — and what to watch out for. How to market with integrity: What good marketing looks like, and how you can build real connections without manipulation. Nicole and I also got real about the mental weight of constantly trying to "keep up" online — and why giving your ideas time to breathe might be the best marketing strategy you’re not using yet. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by marketing, jaded by false promises, or just tired of chasing trends that don't feel authentic to you — this episode is going to feel like a deep breath of fresh air. You don’t have to change who you are to succeed.You just need to understand the world you’re operating in — and how to protect your mind (and your mission) while doing it. 🎧 Listen to the full episode here: On Apple And if you want to learn more about Nicole’s work (seriously, she’s a marketing magician who actually cares about people, not just profits), head over to: https://nicolepowellbrand.com/ 📩 Want more insights like this?

  • Ep.82-Delegation, Growth, and Getting Your Time Back with Molly Rose Speed
    Apr 23 2025
    You Don’t Have to Do It All Alone Let me set the scene: I’m hopping on a Zoom, and somehow I’ve magically become “Patty.” No idea how. Tech gremlins? Maybe. But after a quick identity swap and a good laugh, I got to have one of the most insightful, refreshing conversations with Molly Rose Speed—and I knew immediately this one needed to be shared. Molly is the founder of Virtual Assistant Management and the brains behind a certified virtual assistant training academy that isn’t just about checking boxes—it’s about creating real, reliable, business-ready support for entrepreneurs who are ready to stop juggling it all. Here’s what made this conversation hit home: as solopreneurs, we start businesses to create freedom. To be there for our kids. To pursue our passions. To build something meaningful. But somewhere along the way, we become everything in our business. CEO. Customer service rep. Marketing director. Inbox gatekeeper. Canva designer. Accountant. IT. Travel agent. Sound familiar? Molly knows that story well—because she lived it. She walked away from the corporate cubicle, became a virtual assistant before the world even had a name for it, and built a business that now helps other VAs get certified and matched with entrepreneurs who need their help. What We Covered: The two biggest commodities in business: time and money. Why the VA world is more than just task-ticking—it’s a relationship, a partnership, and yes, even a bit of matchmaking. When you’re actually ready to hire a VA—and when you’re not. How Molly's training ensures VAs are prepared, professional, and passionate about helping your business grow. And how getting just 5 hours a week back can change everything. Molly breaks it down beautifully—if you’re spending $25–$30/hour on a VA, could you be freeing yourself up to go earn $100 in that same hour? Or even better: could you be spending that hour at your kid’s soccer game or NOT replying to emails at midnight? Here’s the thing: delegation isn’t just about scaling. It’s about breathing again. It’s about bringing joy back to your work and clarity back to your days. And if you’re anything like me—running a business, managing family life, and dreaming bigger than your hours allow—you deserve that support. If you’re curious about what a virtual assistant could do for your business (or if you want to become a VA yourself), visit Molly’s site:👉 www.virtualassistantmanagement.com You’ll find her free masterclass, details about the certification, and how to book a discovery call with her team. This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing better—with help. You’ve got this. And you don’t have to do it alone anymore. 📩 Want more insights like this?

  • Ep.81-Push or Plateau: Which Path Are You On?
    Apr 16 2025
    Push or Plateau: Which Path Are You On? Have you ever hit a point in your business where you’re busy — working, checking things off — but deep down, you know you’re not really growing? You’re stuck in what I call the actively waiting space. It feels like progress because you’re moving... but in reality, you’re staying right where you are. And you know what? It happens to all of us. Myself included. In fact, it’s completely normal — especially after the whirlwind of getting your business off the ground. (Trust me, that early startup phase? It’s like the first trimester of pregnancy — exhausting, emotional, and almost invisible to the outside world.) But here’s the thing nobody tells you: The growth phase doesn’t happen automatically. In business, growth isn’t passive — it’s a choice. And that choice starts when you realize you have two options: ✅ Push into the uncomfortable spaces that lead to real momentum ✅ Or stay in the comfort zone and slowly plateau In this week’s episode of the podcast, I'm breaking down: → Why pushing doesn’t mean working yourself into the ground → What "pushing" actually looks like in a sustainable, life-giving way → How to recognize when you’re stuck in the actively waiting phase → Simple, real-world examples of small risks that lead to big growth If you’re craving honest encouragement and real action steps — without the hustle culture guilt — this episode is for you. 🎧 Click here to listen to Push or Plateau: Which Path Are You On?
