Tonya Cornett thought she would end her career at 10 Barrel Brewing. She had joined the Bend, Oregon-based craft brewery in 2012, piled up competition medals for her beers and created a following at the brewery. She thrived as the brewery's R&D brewmaster before and after its 2014 sale to Anheuser-Busch InBev (A-B). But then Tilray Brands acquired 10 Barrel and seven other brands in 2023. A year later, Tilray laid off Cornett and members of her team in a move that shocked many within the industry. On this week's Brewbound Podcast, Cornett discusses her journey over the last decade-plus and her next chapter with Upp Liquids, a new venture in the rebranded Immersion Brewing space. Cornett shares her experiences at A-B, how 10 Barrel and her role changed under Tilray's ownership and her goals with Upp moving forward. As the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) kicks off in Denver, Cornett also explains how medals have served as a stamp of approval throughout her career and why they remain relevant. Cornett's beers have received numerous competition medals throughout the years, including 28 medals at the Brewers Association's (BA) GABF and World Beer Cup. That doesn't include 10 Barrel's 2024 clean sweep of the German-style Sour Ale category during the 2024 GABF competition. Before the interview, the Brewbound team runs through the latest headlines, including a big leadership shakeup at Molson Coors and Constellation Brands' struggles as its largest consumer base remains under pressure.
On today's episode of The Heart & Hustle Podcast, Evie and Lindsay sit down with the insanely talented filmmaking duo Roma and Vera.

From shooting their first American wedding without speaking much English to finding beauty in chaos and imperfection, Roma & Vera share how they craft cinematic love stories that feel as genuine as the couples themselves. They talk about how to attract your dream clients, why “fun classy” beats “perfectly posed,” and how following intuition (and a good playlist) can change everything. Whether you're a photographer, filmmaker, or any creative entrepreneur, you'll be inspired to ditch the trends, trust your gut, and chase what feels real.

Big budgets and star power don't guarantee success. Sometimes it takes time, refinement, and the right story to win an audience.That's the journey of The Gilded Age, the HBO drama that overcame early skepticism to become a hit. In this episode, we dig into its marketing parallels with the help of our special guest Laura Goldberg, Chief Marketing Officer at Auctane.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from practicing patience, locking in product-market fit, and doubling down when momentum builds to gain lasting growth.About our guest, Laura GoldbergLaura Goldberg is the Chief Marketing Officer at Auctane. She is a seasoned, operations-driven go-to-market executive with a proven track record of propelling software companies to new heights, particularly serving small and medium sized businesses (SMBs), a vital segment for Auctane. Goldberg excels in crafting data-driven marketing strategies that resonate with customer needs, and her expertise will be key in advancing Auctane's mission to deliver exceptional shipping and mailing experiences to businesses worldwide.Previously, Laura was the CMO at Constant Contact, a digital marketing platform trusted by millions of small businesses and nonprofits. She has also held marketing leadership positions at Kabbage, an American Express Company, and LegalZoom, where she played key roles in driving customer growth, revenue expansion, and EBITDA improvements, leading to successful exits for both companies.What B2B Companies Can Learn From The Gilded Age:Patience is essential. The Gilded Age wasn't an overnight success—it built momentum slowly, and Laura sees the same in B2B marketing. “You gotta have patience. You gotta see it more than once. It has to build. You may not, be a… hot [thing] out of the gate. But… it's gonna build. Nobody makes a decision… with The Gilded Age, it's, you know, a solid hour and you gotta pay attention. Like you have to make a commitment to it and it takes time.” Marketing results rarely happen instantly. Success comes from committing, nurturing, and allowing campaigns to grow into traction over time.Product-market fit is non-negotiable. The show's elaborate sets and costumes bought it some time, but what kept audiences hooked was stronger storytelling in later seasons. Laura draws a clear B2B parallel: “You may have some stumbles outta the gate… You gotta deliver the goods. The product market fit, if you will, has to be there eventually. It doesn't have to be perfect right outta the gate, but it has to get to perfect pretty quickly.” In other words: creative campaigns and strong distribution will only get you so far—if the product doesn't ultimately deliver, marketing can't save itLean in when you gain traction. Once The Gilded Age started buzzing online, the promotion amplified everywhere. Laura says the same is true for B2B: “Once you get traction, lean in. When I tell you that my socials, everything I see is talking about this show… I see Mr. Russell in his flower suit all over the internet. By the way, I think it's an interview from two years ago that I keep seeing. So recycle all that stuff. But like once you feel that traction gripping, lean in, like repeat, be on everything. Repost, retweet… you have to lean in when you're doing well and really get that momentum.” Marketers should maximize momentum, recycle strong content, and make sure their presence is unavoidable when the audience is paying attention.Quote“ Customer, customer, customer. I feel like too many times it's really easy to talk about why your product's great and what it does… but you really have to frame it in the, what are you doing for me and me being the customer. How am I making things faster, cheaper, better for your end customer with what we're doing, and making sure that you're not just yelling features and functionality at people.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Laura Goldberg, Chief Marketing Officer at Auctane[01:14] Why The Gilded Age?[02:57] The Role of CMO at Auctane[09:50] What is The Gilded Age?[26:28] The Craft of Period Pieces[29:19] B2B Marketing Lessons from The Gilded Age[31:43] Laura's Marketing Strategy as a CMO[37:25] Winning Across Channels[49:35] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Laura on LinkedInLearn more about AuctaneAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

This special two-part episode features Roman Alonso of Commune and David Calligeros of Remains Lighting in two distinct conversations exploring origins, philosophy, and the meaning of design partnerships. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep LOME-AI.com, simple, inexpensive, text to video harnessing the power of AI to grow your firm, beautifully. From salvaging antiques to designing timeless interiors, David and Roman share stories of growth, collaboration, and craft. What began as a single interview turned into a richer double feature—a master class in design values, sustainability, and the essential philosophies behind two influential studios. Part One: David Calligeros, Remains Lighting Origins and Influences: From antiques and architectural salvage to a design career shaped by an arts-influenced mother and an engineer father. The Birth of Remains: Starting in Manhattan in 1995, evolving from antiques into lighting design. Engineering Meets Art: Marrying technical precision with artistic intuition. Custom Work & Collaborations: Partnering with Commune, Robert A.M. Stern, Matthew Fisher, and others. IP, Dupes & Authenticity: Protecting design through integrity, storytelling, and craftsmanship. Sustainability & Craft: LEED Gold Brooklyn factory, solar array, stormwater recycling, and green production practices. Business & Market Challenges: Navigating the 2008 crash, tariffs, and the value of US-based manufacturing. Philosophy: Design as a question-driven, ethical practice rooted in long-term value and collaboration. Link: Remains Lighting Part Two: Roman Alonso, Commune Origins and Career Path: From Caracas to Miami, Boston, New York, and LA; a career spanning publishing, fashion, and interiors. Formation of Commune Studio (2003): Built around collaboration, essentialism, and quality. Studio Philosophy: Purposeful, small by design, focused on meaningful work and enduring value. Influences: Latin American upbringing, Isaac Mizrahi, Lisa Eisner, and lessons from fashion and editorial worlds. Product Development: Solving real design problems, prototyping in-house before release. Collaboration: Strategic partnerships (including Remains Lighting) to ensure usability and quality. Personal Philosophy: Stoicism, fairness, ethical production, and acknowledging imposter syndrome. Evolution of the Firm: Scaling deliberately—growing reach through products and partnerships while keeping the studio intimate. Quotes: “Good design shouldn't be a privilege—it's a right.” “Design is about editing, listening, and creating solutions that people might not even know they need.” This episode illustrates how partnerships in design aren't just about collaboration—they're about shared values, craft, and philosophy. By hearing these conversations separately, you'll gain insights into two distinct but complementary approaches to design, sustainability, and creativity. So much to take in. This was a master class on how to structure, nurture and grow design partnerships. Make sure you check the show notes for links and notes about all of the topics covered.

Send us a textWhat does it mean to be "not famous, just successful" in the stand-up comedy world? Veteran comedian Steve Bruner returns to share wisdom from over four decades of making strangers laugh.The magic of comedy isn't just in the spotlight moments—it's in the careful craft behind the scenes. Steve reveals his meticulous writing process, collecting fragments of ideas on scraps of paper before weaving them into cohesive bits that connect with audiences worldwide. Despite his seasoned status, he still attends open mics to test new material, comparing it to "a baseball player needing to swing the bat to remember how to swing."Comedy has transformed dramatically since Steve's early days earning $12.20 at the Holy City Zoo. While today's emerging comics can build careers through TikTok and social media—routes unavailable to previous generations—Steve emphasizes that nothing replaces the electric connection between a live comedian and their audience. This becomes especially evident when he discusses the unique challenges of performing on cruise ships, where passengers might have just visited the Vatican the day before his show.Throughout our conversation, Steve's perspective remains refreshingly grounded. He finds joy in the process itself—seeing connections others miss and sharing that perspective through laughter. For aspiring comics, his journey offers valuable lessons about persistence, adaptability, and finding fulfillment beyond fame.The episode concludes with a hilarious sample of Steve's clean, observational comedy about wedding traditions that showcases his masterful timing and relatable humor. Whether you're a comedy fan or creator, you'll find both entertainment and insight in this conversation with a true professional who's built a lasting career by making the world funnier, one audience at a time.Support the show www.StandupComedyPodcastNetwork.com Website....check it out, podcast, jokes, blogs, and More!"NEW" Video Podcast: Tag Team Talent Podcast on Spotify & YouTube Podcast Quality List: https://www.millionpodcasts.com/heritage-podcasts/ Please Write a Review: in-depth walk-through for leaving a review.Interested in Standup Comedy?

In this episode of "Crafting a Meaningful Life," host Mary Crafts is joined by Georgina Enthoven to explore the integration of meaningful work and sustainable careers. The dialog kicks off with a nostalgic recollection of "The Wizard of Oz," which inspired Craft's lifelong dedication to doing good. Anchoring their discussion around the universal ambition to achieve a career filled with purpose and impact, Crafts and Enthoven delve into the nuances of being a 'do-gooder' in today's work environment. Harnessing Enthoven's vast experience, the conversation navigates through the challenges and triumphs of aligning profitability with philanthropy. Emphasizing the pressing need for change in workplace cultures and the role of leadership in championing meaningful work, this episode shines a light on how to effectively channel one's professional hours toward social good. Concepts like the 'unrewarded do-gooder' and the staggering statistic of a 90,000-hour career serve as cornerstones for discussing how to balance these hours between productivity and purposeful impact. These insights come alongside real-world examples and anecdotes that women and young professionals, in particular, will find both relatable and illuminating. About the Guest: Georgina Enthoven is an accomplished author and podcast host specializing in bridging the gap between generating income and making a positive impact in the world. Enthoven's background is diverse and global, having been born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and living in various countries including the United States and Mexico. She graduated from Berkeley in the mid-90s and later attended Harvard Business School. Her professional journey includes a mixture of tech industry experiences and significant contributions to social impact enterprises. Enthoven is the author of "Work That's Worth It," and she also hosts a podcast by the same name, focusing on redefining career goals to integrate income with social impact. Key Takeaways: A career can simultaneously provide financial security and meaningful impact; it is not an either/or situation. Understanding the leadership's values in an organization can be pivotal in aligning personal values with professional goals. Embracing non-traditional paths that combine entrepreneurial spirit and social impact can yield substantial outcomes, both personally and societally. Asking critical questions during job interviews can reveal whether a company truly embodies its purported mission. Shifting personal attitudes towards daily tasks can redefine one's work experience, transforming mundane into meaningful.

In the early days of craft beer the brewpub was a popular spot in many cities.

Also Tony had to pause the show to use the toilet. Which is just what they call it there, he'll get pissed at me if I call it a “restroom” or a “bathroom.” It's the toilet!! Today we came upon the weirdest beer related PR push of all time, and I honestly cannot unlock what is happening there. Some really bizarre stuff. I would try “Dale's IPA,” I just want that out there. I would try it and I think it'll be pretty good. I would also try a beer called Lucky O'Reilly or Mo'Mummy. Even if they are actually slot machines, I would give them a shot. Anyways, see you next week. ★ Support this podcast ★

We're joined by Augusta Distillery's national brand ambassador to dig into what makes single‑barrel, cask‑strength whiskey feel both world‑class and welcoming: a visitor experience designed for lingering, fair‑pour access to ultra‑premium bottles, and a production engine running 24/7 with new rickhouses coming online. If you've ever wondered how a brand can be NDP at the bottle while laying down barrels daily, or why the words unfiltered and uncompromised still matter, this one hits the spot.We taste through Old Route 8, Buckner's 13, and Buckner's 10—calling out the signatures that keep fans lining up: brown sugar and dark fruit, cinnamon warmth that stays clean, and a “dessert in a glass” profile that turns into an old fashioned over a single cube. Festival highlights abound—light‑yield unicorns selling out in hours, surprise drops of Buckner's 17 and hazmat 13—and a smart, simple cocktail reveal: the 8 and 8 highball with Kentucky's own Ale‑8, a fresh upgrade on the classic 7 and 7 that brings high‑proof whiskey into easy‑drinking territory. Along the way, we share a rare 1946 vintage pour that connects dust, medicine‑sweet cherry, and history to the present, a reminder that some of the best bourbon was made decades ago—and some is quietly aging for drinkers yet to come.Underneath the proofs and pours is purpose. Every bottle points back to Augusta, Kentucky: a flood‑tested river town, a one‑building K‑12 school, and a community that's received real support—funded arts, a renovated ballfield with the Cincinnati Reds, and a sense of pride you can feel on the lawn outside the distillery. Consider this your invite to make the trip: thieve from barrels, bottle your own, sit by the fire pits, and watch the ferry cross the Ohio as the leaves turn. If you love bourbon culture—barrel picks, rare releases, and stories that stick—you'll feel right at home.

Let the Wild Gods Rise. Easy to say and harder to do - but if you were offered a portal, a way to step into the other-worlds, to reconnect with all that we have been and could be, would you take it? If you're listening to this, you are likely steeped in the mechanical world of our culture - but it doesn't have to be like this. The other worlds are alive, present…wild—and just within reach. All we need are doorways, places where the veils between the worlds grow thinner and then route maps to take us to—and through—them. There are many of these: some of us have places where we go to sit, day after week after month after year; places we walk where the lapwings fly or the toads grumble or the lichens coat the rocks. Some of us dance, or sing, or hold spaces for each other to find the endless re-creation of the web in the inter-becoming moment, the dependent co-arising of the magic of life. Many of us go to books and it's one of these we're visiting today: Wild Folk by Jackie Morris and Tamsin Abbott is a work of art, a delight on so many levels—and it's explicitly a portal to the wild at the heart of the world. I'm fairly sure I don't need to introduce these two amazing women, but just in case: Jackie Morris is an artist, illustrator and wordsmith. Alone or in collaboration has written & illustrated over forty books, including classics such as The Snow Leopard, Song of the Golden Hare, and East of the Sun, West of the Moon. More recently, she and Robert Macfarlane co-created The Lost Words, and The Lost Spells, and I'm delighted to say they are working on new book on birds, which is due to come out soon.Tamsin Abbott has been creating painted stained-glass panels for over twenty years. Herwork is influenced by this ancient land and how we are connected to it: the hills, the woods, the plants, birds and animals that live alongside us and the world of myths and fairytales that we have spun around it. She has appeared on BBC Countryfile, appeared in many of this country's foremost magazines and exhibited in our leading galleries. As you'll hear, Jackie and Tamsin had been friends for many years before the seed of Wild Folk finally took root at a residency in the wilds of Exmoor. The result is a work of pure magic. Come along with us and let's explore the what and the how and the where and the who of this astonishing act of co-creation.

How does an ready-to-drink (RTD) brand that was built on the beach translate to other seasons? Surfside, Stateside Vodka's hard iced tea and lemonade canned cocktail brand, is betting big on sports this fall. Stateside co-founders CEO Clem Pappas and president Matt Quigley joined the Brewbound Podcast to discuss the brand's meteoric rise, its partnerships across college football and professional hockey and baseball and the newly rechristened Stateside Live!, an entertainment hub at the South Philadelphia Sports Complex where the city's professional sports teams play. Year-to-date through mid-September, Surfside's depletions (sales to retailers) reached nearly 8 million cases, about a 150% increase over last year. Prior to the interview, Zoe and Jess break down recent news stories, including the abrupt shutdown of brewpub chain Iron Hill and storied cider maker Martinelli's pivot to bev-alc.

If you're ready to rethink what your brand says about you and how it can fuel your next chapter, this is the conversation you need to hear.We welcome Jess Jensen from Co-pilot Communications, a female-owned personal branding and executive communications expert, based in Oregon. We have a conversation that goes far beyond marketing strategy. Jess shares her unique approach to building authentic executive brands, helping leaders tap into their stories, define the legacies they want to leave, and connect meaningfully with both their teams and broader audiences. Jess offers a 25-minute consultation that can be booked directly via her website. She also mentions a free LinkedIn profile review for Spirit of EQ listeners (October/November availability — just mention the podcast when booking).Together, we explore the intersection of emotional intelligence and personal branding, why vulnerability and storytelling build trust, and how anyone—not just corporate execs—can benefit from thinking intentionally about their “brand.” Jess also offers actionable steps for getting started, insight from her time in the tech industry, and a few musical analogies that perfectly hit the right note. For those wondering about practical steps, Jess offered a high-level outline of her five-step process for brand building:Define your primary audience—who are you really trying to reach? Clarifying their needs and challenges is crucial before anything else.Craft your narrative platform—determine two to four key “story territories” (often business-related, leadership philosophy, and personal/passion areas) that form the pillars of your brand.Architect intentional content that reinforces those narratives, staying focused despite the temptation to react or go off-brand.Master one digital platform at a time, whether audio, LinkedIn, or another channel, and only expand as you gain confidence and rhythm.Build relationships in the comments and interactions—don't just broadcast, but truly foster a two-way conversation that builds community and trust.In each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

Why aren't the things we buy made to last anymore? From furniture to everyday items, repairability has been quietly designed out of our lives—replaced by disposable culture and fast consumption. In this episode, we explore how we got here, why it matters, and what it will take to bring repair back to the center of craft. We'll dive into the lost art of making things REPAIRABLE again, the hidden costs of throwaway design, and the growing movement to create objects meant to be fixed, not discarded. Join us as we imagine a future where repair isn't an afterthought, but a defining part of craftsmanship.To watch the YOUTUBE VIDEO of this episode and the irreverent & somewhat unpredictable AFTERSHOW, subscribe to our Patreon: (http://patreon.com/user?u=91688467) http://patreon.com/user?u=91688467

In this powerful conversation, Ned chats with Tim Campbell, an 82-year-old father with decades of hard-earned wisdom to share. As a husband of 50 years, Peace Corps veteran, and author of "Holding Up the Sky," Tim opens up about the challenges and triumphs of raising three children—including two with serious health challenges. This isn't just theory; it's battlefield-tested fatherhood advice from a man who's lived it. Tim introduces concepts like the "phantom captain" and reframes discipline as building trust rather than punishment. His stories will resonate with dads in the trenches of parenting, offering practical insights on embracing selflessness, developing resilience, and committing to the long game of fatherhood. Both vulnerable and encouraging, this episode reminds fathers that your daily investments—even when unseen or unappreciated—are creating a legacy that will shape generations long after you're gone.Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction - The Journey of Fatherhood00:01:47 Tim at 82: Wisdom That Transcends Age00:03:03 Passing Down Fatherhood Lessons Between Generations00:04:45 Marriage as the Foundation: 50 Years of Partnership00:06:15 Supporting Your Spouse Through Family Crises00:08:19 How Challenges Can Strengthen Your Marriage00:12:41 Raising Children with Different Needs and Challenges00:27:05 Developing the Heart of a Father: Leading with Love00:39:36 How Our Fathers Shape Our Parenting Approach00:44:55 Building Your Legacy as a DadLinks and Resources:Holding Up the Sky (Book)Tim Campbell's Personal SiteTim Campbell on LinkedInFamily Culture Guide Rebel and Create: A Compass to Mastering the Craft of Fatherhood
Ever wondered where the line between inspiration and appropriation lies in performance art? Captain Frodo welcomes comedian-magician Nick Diffatte for a candid exploration of originality in magic that will resonate with creators across all disciplines.Nick takes us behind the scenes of Tannen's Magic Camp—an intensive gathering where 120 young magicians (ages 10-20) immerse themselves in the craft under the guidance of working professionals. You'll feel like you're wandering the Hogwarts-like halls of Bryn Bawr College as Nick describes the transformation these young performers undergo when they realize they're not alone in their passion. The teaching methodology is fascinating: forcing students to perform on day one breaks down barriers, creating a safe space where they can be vulnerable enough to truly learn.The conversation shifts into territory rarely discussed publicly—the ethical questions performers face when developing material. Through the lens of what Nick calls "the Elvis analogy," they explore how performers can honor magical traditions while still finding their authentic voice. When does a borrowed trick become truly yours? How much must you change something before claiming ownership? The answers aren't simple, but they're essential for anyone who creates.Most compelling is their shared vulnerability about their own creative processes. Captain Frodo confesses his insecurity about performing routines developed by others, while Nick reveals his struggles publishing instructional material that walks the line between teaching technique and sharing complete performance pieces. Their honesty strips away the mystery often surrounding creative work, revealing the human questions that haunt even the most accomplished performers.Whether you're a magic enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates the creative process, this episode offers rare insights into how art evolves through generations while remaining true to its roots.

We're joined by Jack Schwager—author of the legendary Market Wizards series and co-founder of FundSeeder—along with his partner and fellow co-founder & CEO, Emanuel Balarie. Jack shares what it really takes to be considered for a Market Wizards book: not one formula, but a mix of standout performance, disciplined risk, and an almost obsessive commitment to process and adaptation. Along the way, we dig into why survival so often hinges on position sizing and pre-planned exits, whether strategies like trend following can still hold up today, and the paradox of how fundamental convictions can actually work against risk management. Emanuel then explains how FundSeeder discovers talented but undiscovered traders worldwide, using analytics to measure performance and the FundSeeder Rise accelerator (now part of RQSI) to help top performers make the leap from trading their own accounts to managing outside capital. Think of it as a “farm system” for the next generation of fund managers. Few will ultimately make the cut, but every great manager starts somewhere—and if you've been honing your craft and building a real track record, this episode might spark the thought: why not you?

If you've ever wondered how to grow a thriving online craft business while raising six kids and staying grounded in faith, today's episode is for you. I'm joined by the inspiring Colette Barron, the heart and hands behind Blessings Craft Therapy. Colette has built a beautiful community of nearly a million followers across platforms by showing up with consistency, creativity, and compassion. From humble beginnings with Facebook Lives to viral videos on YouTube, her story will both encourage and challenge you to step boldly into your calling. https://creativesonfirepodcast.com/episode215 From MLM to DIY CEO Colette didn't start out with plans to be a content creator. In fact, she was working in the medical field before stepping back to raise her family. But with creative energy bubbling over, she began sharing easy, Dollar Tree-inspired crafts online. At first, she joined an MLM company, but it wasn't long before she realized it wasn't the right fit. She felt the nudge to create something of her own—and she did. What began as 3–4 minute Facebook videos turned into a full-time business built on creativity and consistency. Her secret? Showing up every day, sharing something doable, and focusing on quick wins for her audience. A Mindset Shift That Changed Everything One of the biggest turning points in Colette's journey was shifting her mindset from “What can you do for me?” to “What can I do for you?” That simple, powerful change—focusing on serving her audience—transformed how she created content. Rather than selling or pushing products, she focused on making people smile, giving them a pause in their day, and building confidence through crafting. And it worked. The Power of a Tagline and a Smile If you've seen Colette's videos, you already know her signature signoff: “Now it's your turn. Go make something pretty.” It's more than a phrase—it's a mission. It invites creativity, encourages action, and reminds her audience they're capable of creating beauty, too. How She Gets It All Done Colette is a mom of six and a homeschooler, but she still manages to create consistent content across multiple platforms. Her secret? Batching. Mondays are for planning and prepping content Tuesdays are for shopping for DIY supplies Wednesdays are for filming all of her crafts The rest of the week is spent editing, homeschooling, and managing her home She also repurposes her long-form YouTube videos into short videos for Facebook, allowing her to multiply her content without recreating it. And her best tip? Record voiceovers in the car—it's quiet, soundproof, and distraction-free! The Platform She Loves the Most While she started on Facebook, Colette says YouTube is her favorite platform. Why? It's easier to manage and schedule The monetization is stronger and more consistent You don't have to feed the algorithm as often She compares it to feeding someone a good meal once a week vs. feeding them fast food all day every day (hello, Facebook). The Secret to Staying Consistent It's not always easy, but Colette says obedience keeps her going. She feels a calling to do this work—not just for her family or her audience, but because she believes God asked her to. That motivation helps her keep showing up, especially when things get hard. She also mentioned that people are watching—her kids, her followers—and she wants to lead by example. Faith at the Core Colette's faith weaves through everything she does. At first, she wasn't sure how to bring it into her business. But after a powerful moment of prayer in her car, she knew it was time to share more openly. Now, she shares morning devotionals in her Instagram Stories and plans to launch a podcast called Created to Create that will blend faith, business, and creativity. One Post Away Colette reminded us that growth often comes from one post that resonates deeply. A Dollar Tree plunger project and a single YouTube video both went viral and changed everything. But neither would have happened without the daily commitment to show up and serve. “You're just one post away,” she says—and it's a reminder we all need. Where to Find Colette You can follow Colette at Blessings Craft Therapy on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Pinterest. On TikTok, she's @blessedcolette.
