Is anyone else still in disbelief that it's 2025? This episode is for all my nosy listeners who love a peek behind the scenes—hearing about other people's goals, reflections on the past year, and plans for the new one. If that's your kind of tea, you're in the right place!Last week, I posted a story on Instagram about how I create quarterly Looms for my team, and it got a lot of interest. So today, I'll dive into that process, share my reflections on last year, and talk about what's on my mind for 2025—which, by the way, still feels surreal to say!I'm also sharing two unconventional New Year's resolutions that I believe should be on every business owner's list. There's a lot to cover, so let's get into it!
I remember sitting on my bed, reading through a box of old journals I had tucked away in the closet. At first, it was fun, remembering some of the friendships I had and experiences I had gone through. Laughing at some of my immature moments. But instead of storing them back in the closet, I dumped them all in a trash can. Have you ever done that? Back in episode 55, Elizabeth McCravy and I talked a bit about how there are times when you just need to throw your old journals away. And we're going to explore that a little more today. Because I've got to tell you, I don't have any of my journals except the ones from the past few years. Everything else, I threw away. Why? I'll share with you my reasons why and also help you discern if you need to throw yours away, too. Please note, throwing away your journals is not for everyone. It's actually not for most of you. But how do you know if and when it's time? I hope today's episode will help you determine that for yourself.

I remember when my kiddos were little. Those months after bringing a baby home just radically change how you do life, don't they? From trying to figure out how to get some sleep to finding time to shower to learning what temperature to warm their bottle and when they can start eating different foods… it's just all so much. Journaling in that season looked a lot different than it did in other, more ordinary life seasons. And then there are situations where you stop journaling altogether, like Elizabeth McCravy shared back in episode 55. When her dad died, it was about a year before she picked up her journal again. The choice is up to you, whether you journal during difficult seasons or not. You'll know what's right for you. God will guide you in that. But if you're finding yourself wanting to journal during this time and aren't sure how to, I want to offer you 3 tips so that you can still reap the benefits from journaling and also stay close to God.

In this inspiring episode, I warmly welcome listeners to the dawn of 2024, sharing my personal and professional goals for the year. The episode kicks off with my reflections on the much-needed break taken since December, emphasizing the importance of slowing down and aligning with the season's rhythm. I delve into the unexpected 'Snowmageddon 2024' that blanketed Nashville, drawing parallels between this event and the quiet, introspective days of the pandemic. This natural pause allowed for family bonding and a reconnection with the essence of joy and simplicity in life. Exactly what the winter season is for! Listeners will find this episode particularly engaging as I unveil my eight carefully thought-out goals for 2024 (with a few bonus business goals for the winter season!). These goals range from creating a serene and organized home environment, embracing a holistic health and wellness journey, and mindful financial planning, to nurturing creativity through reading and adventures, preserving family memories, leading my business with confidence and clarity, and fostering community through collaborations. I share my reconnection with PowerSheets, a pivotal tool in my goal-setting journey, and how this tool, along with Asana, will guide me through the year. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone looking to start their year with intention, seeking inspiration for setting personal and professional goals, or anyone interested in learning how to balance the demands of life and work with grace and joy.

Motherhood and business are two ways God calls some of us into ministry, and that is the story of my guest on today's episode of BEYOND – Elizabeth McCravy. Elizabeth is a Showit website template designer, a business educator and host of the Breakthrough Brand Podcast. She's married and lives with her husband and two-year-old son in Franklin, TN, and she's a boy mom – expecting her second son in several months. One of my favorite things about Elizabeth is her willingness to speak about entrepreneurship AND her faith openly. A huge theme in this conversation is being willing to step out in faith knowing that life doesn't always happen according to our own plans. Whether it's a business offering that doesn't go as expected, or the delivery of her first baby going almost the complete opposite of how she'd hoped, Elizabeth talks about plans, pivots and what it looks like to REALLY trust God. On this guest episode with Elizabeth McCravy, you'll learn: What led Elizabeth to entrepreneurship at age 22 and how she got her very first clients as a designer The 4 different revenue streams in her business, and the 5th one she shares with her husband Adam Elizabeth's personal experience of launching a new offer only to shut it down 4 months later (and what she learned in the process) How not being a perfectionist has been helpful to the growth of her business (including the ability to delegate and grow a team) Her love of systems and processes as a creative, and what work she could see herself doing if she wasn't a designer How she's prepping for baby #2 and another maternity leave Why moms are able to work less AND be more productive How Elizabeth's faith influences her business even though she doesn't have a Christian niche How motherhood and business are both forms of ministry God calls us to, and what it looks like to steward those callings well Important links for this episode: Elizabeth's website: elizabethmccravy.com Say hi over on Instagram Take the Website Personality Quiz Breakthrough Brand Podcast Ep. 224 (where Elizabeth talks about lessons learned from launching and closing her membership program) Elizabeth is a big believer in coaching and personal growth, and it's something she's invested in along her business journey.

Elizabeth McCravy is committed to bringing entrepreneurs strategic and creative website templates that highlight their value, streamline the creative process, and enhance business growth. With a growing business and a growing family, Elizabeth needed systems that could support her ever-expanding clientele list as well as allow her to step back from the daily operational tasks of her business. Together, we built systems that allow her to step back into her role as the CEO visionary and as a mom! Our goal in building out ClickUp for Elizabeth was to streamline and consolidate her internal operations. This included leaning out her tech stack and consolidating processes, data storage, and workflows within ClickUp. This allows her team to fluidly collaborate on programs, templates, and coaching projects all in one place. On top of that, we optimized the workflows for each of her major services and programs. This systemization has enabled Elizabeth to be present at home while expanding the business's capacity for new clients.

From coding MySpace websites in middle school to launching a web design and template shop post-graduation, today's guest Elizabeth McCravy has had entrepreneurship in her blood from an early age. Though she may have been born with a natural inclination toward owning a business, she would characterize herself as an accidental entrepreneur. Hear how Elizabeth was somewhat reluctantly pushed onto the path of entrepreneurship and grew a business in just a few short years that supports her family and provides her time to be the wife, mom and business owner she wants to be.

Today, we are talking about the #1 buzzword in the online space right now: AI. I've brought in Dawn Richardson, owner of Tech Savvy Creative and long-time online friend (and Elizabeth McCravy shop customer!). We met IRL recently at the Creative Educator Conference a few months ago, and I reached out to her immediately after asking her to come on the podcast and talk about the top AI tools to free up your time in your business. A little bit of background info for you: Dawn was a software engineer turned wedding photographer and is now back in the tech space. So she REALLY gets it. Her mission is to help creative entrepreneurs leverage the power of technology to regain more time freedom, which you all know is near and dear to my heart! She's so helpful and really breaks down tech in a way that we can all understand (and get from tech-overwhelm to tech-empowered), and I couldn't be more grateful to have her sharing her wisdom with us today. Here are a few things you'll hear on today's episode: What is Chat GPT and what should we be using it for? the #1 thing we should all be automating as creative business owners simple automations you can set up QUICKLY that make a big difference more advanced tools you can use for team meetings, scaling your business, and more. when to SWITCH your current tools and when to stay If you want to automate your business or take advantage of more of the top AI tools, I know you'll love this interview as much as I did.

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls' Night! I'm so excited about today's episode. Today we're talking about how to work from home and actually get work done! I'm excited about this episode because working from home has become more and more popular in the past few years, especially since the aftermath of the pandemic. Some of us work from home full-time and others of us have more of a hybrid schedule and are at home one or two days out of the week. I have personally come to love working from home, but I know it still comes with its challenges which is what we're diving into today! Our guest for today's episode is my new friend, Elizabeth McCravy! Elizabeth is a wife, mom, podcaster, and website designer! She designs and sells the most beautiful Showit website templates which we'll be sure to link to in the show notes along with a discount code. And similar to me she works from her home near Nashville! In this episode she teaches us her tried and true tips for making our workdays at home productive and efficient, while also leaving time for brain breaks and rest. I especially loved the exercise she shared about how to plan our to-dos and work schedule for the week, which you'll be hearing more about soon! Learn more about your ad choices.

Several weeks back, I had been feeling unproductive, on the path to burnout, and tired. The boundaries between life and work were becoming blurred. And even though I'm a night owl and love working on my business in the evenings and sleeping in late, I knew something had to change. You know the cycle. Staying up late, sleeping in or staying in bed on my phone, and repeat. I didn't quit my 9-5 job a couple months ago to spend less time with my family. Since then, my business has been transformed with two minor tweaks! 1) Working out consistently! (more on this next week), and 2) Scheduling EVERYTHING on my digital calendar. Curious? Tune in this week to hear my exact process and how it's revolutionized my energy and productivity! I got this idea and made it my own after listening to this episode of Elizabeth McCravy's podcast!

This week, we are going to dive deeper into our conversation about journaling and reflection as I talk with business strategist and podcast host Elizabeth McCravy. As I have listened to Elizabeth's podcast episodes, I have seen how she so naturally incorporates reflection and journaling into her everyday life, both personally and for her business. It is just something that she does so well. And so I asked her if she would be willing to talk more with us about that. We got to talk about the big picture of why we journal, plus dig into the nitty gritty of what it actually looks like on a daily or weekly basis. I love how Elizabeth dispels some of the myths we have about journaling. Plus, Elizabeth was gracious enough to share about her experience reflecting and journaling when it came to two major events in her life: the birth of her son and the loss of her dad. I've said this before, but you guys know how incredibly difficult it can be to talk about those hard places in our lives. And so many of my guests have been so open and vulnerable about their experiences, and Elizabeth is no different. This is a sacred conversation and I know you won't take it lightly. Please be sure to take the time to thank her for her willingness to share. There are so many incredible truths packed into our conversation. Be sure to grab some paper and a pen so you can write them down. Are you ready?

Today I have the honor of interviewing my amazing client and friend, Rick Mulready! In this interview, I ask Rick #allthethings about what his business and life look like behind the scenes as a 7-Figure/Year business owner. No matter where you are in your business right now, you're going to learn so much from Rick's insight into the mindset, habits, thoughts, and actions that have led to his success. I've learned a lot from Rick through having him as a client (I redesigned his brand and website last year!), and fun fact… his podcast was one of the first I discovered when I first started my business years ago. So, this interview is very special for me! Some highlights we'll cover: - How Rick makes money in his business and how that has evolved over the years - What a “typical” workday looks like - Major team building strategies - How parenthood changed Rick's business and work schedule - Calendar/scheduling strategies for success - Working towards a 4 day work week - Why mindset matters SO MUCH - How to better track your business data Links mentioned in this episode: - Get the full show notes at http://elizabethmccravy.com/137 - Connect with Elizabeth on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabethmccravy/ - Connect with Rick on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rickmulready/ - Connect with Elizabeth on her website: http://elizabethmccravy.com/ - Connect with Rick on his website: http://rickmulready.com/ - Shop website templates: http://elizabethmccravy.com/shop I've also been a guest on Rick's awesome podcast The Art of Online Business!

We’re flipping the mic for our 100th episode! Today, I’m going to be the guest and my good business friend, Elizabeth McCravy will be the host interviewing me! Today we’re going to be talking about a subject that isn’t talked about a lot but that is very important to me - incorporating your faith at work. Faith at work is such an important topic for me because of how I became a believer (which you’ll hear about in the episode). I incorporate the topic in some of my LinkedIn posts, and of course it ends up coming out in some of my podcast episodes, but I’ve never had an entire episode dedicated to this topic. So when I was thinking about what I wanted to talk about during my 100th episode, this is naturally what came to my mind. I’m super excited to dive into this topic with you all! If you’ve ever had questions on how you could incorporate your faith at work and what that looks like, then you don’t want to miss today’s episode!
