“I have too many clothes but nothing to wear.” It's a common phrase that many of us think as we peer into our closets. But is there a solution? It's my personal belief that decluttering can absolutely solve this problem; however, I think there are even more ways we can address this mentality. Joining me today to help find solutions to closet overwhelm is founder of the Cladwell app, Erin Flynn. As a working mom with limited time, Erin understands the challenges that many of us face when it comes to our wardrobes. She believes in the concept of "less is more," helping people refine their personal style, shop smarter, and get creative with their existing wardrobe. Erin emphasizes the importance of normalizing outfit repeats, living intentionally, shopping from our own closets, and, of course, clearing the clutter.

Do you ever feel like you're permanently glued to your work computer? Erin Flynn did. In fact, Erin was checking her sales on her wedding day, and this, along with other big life events that made her feel addicted to her business, were what prompted her to drop her hours and live her life. This week, episode 104 of the Product Powerhouse Podcast is about how to spend less time glued to your computer, and more time living your life! In this episode of the Product Powerhouse Podcast, Erin Flynn is sharing the importance of removing the pieces of your business that you do not enjoy to work less and actionable steps you can take right now to feel better about your limited time with your business. Some of the talking points Erin and I go over in this episode include:The first few things you can do to detach from your computer and step away from your business.How to manage the day-to-day tasks, like customer service, while being an out-of-the-office entrepreneur.How to evaluate the tasks you've put pressure on yourself to do, and how to easily remove or reestablish them as needed. Ways product based businesses can continue to make money even if they are hospitalized, on maternity leave, or on vacation. There is power in being an entrepreneur who is not glued to their work all the time; the power to take a vacation, have that time flexibility or even handle emergencies as they arise in our lives, is far more important than burning out doing everything we think we have to do to be successful. Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on growing your product shop and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

I'm stoked to share Diane Neubauer's inspirational story! Diane just ROCKED a 2:45 at the McKirdy Micro Marathon, destroying her previous PR of 3:07 by an astonishing 22 minutes—just 13 months after having her 2nd son, Noah. Diane was living on a military base in Germany with her Air Force husband, Andrew, and their newborn baby, Luke, and was struggling with postpartum depression/anxiety. A chance invite to a 7-mile race from a mother-based running group (Stroller Warriors) changed everything! She nursed Luke before and after the race and it was the first time Diane felt she could breathe in so long! In her own words, "finding running again in motherhood has saved me." We discussed: -Growing up in a competitive, athletic, military family -The influence her dad had on her (former marathon coach at West Point, ran Boston (with a PR of 2:51) -High school/college running -Key coaches/mentors—Erin Flynn, Joe Dare, James McKirdy -Community—Girls On the Run, Stroller Warriors, helping other mother-runners, coaching high school cross-country, & giving back -Race day mantras, fueling, goal-setting, chasing your dreams—OTQ Connecting with James McKirdy via a referral from Coach Joe Dare brought them together. For the past 13 months, they’ve pushed hard, with a focus on remaining healthy as the #1 priority. "Having a coach who believes in your dreams has been life changing. He was able to bike me in for the marathon and that is something I will cherish forever." Working together for 23 miles with teammate Michael Perley helped them both achieve their goals and 1st place finish for Diane! The power of community and the role running plays in helping us find the best version of ourselves truly resonates in this episode. Hope you all enjoy this convo as much as we did!

Making sourdough, getting psyched for Zoom parties, and finally cleaning out your closet…the halcyon days of the early pandemic seem almost quaint now. If you’ve lost your luster, become a bit sluggish from staring at the same walls for 10 (!) months now, you’re not alone. Surrounding yourself with the same environment on repeat is tiring, but changing things up in your space can also do wonders for mental health. So if you didn’t sort through your closet last spring, doing so now may just give you the boost you’ve been missing. Erin Flynn, founder and CEO of the closet-clearing, capsule wardrobe kick-starting app, Cladwell, knows all too well how a closet of unworn, unloved clothes can drag you down. It can even impact decision making in other areas of life. Embracing her so-called failures as much as her successes, Erin shows us how making executive decisions in the dark doldrums of the closet can lighten your load and make room for your personal style, proving that in a consumerist culture, less is really more.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who loves the movie Clueless?! Now, I realize how ridiculous of a movie it is, but in a “I love how ridiculous this movie is” kind of way, right? It is what began my love affair for Jeep Wranglers, and I longed for Cher Horowitz’s infamous closet with the computerized system that dressed her every day. My guest today was not in the movie Clueless, but she did create an App called Cladwell that is basically the 2020 version of Cher’s closet dressing system. Erin Flynn is the CEO of Cladwell, a personal styling app that transforms your closet into one where you love and wear everything you own and makes getting dressed easy every morning with daily outfit recommendations. It does so much more than that, and you’ll hear how when you tune in and listen to how Erin is making a positive impact with her career. Cladwell has been featured on Good Morning America, and even did a partnership with Marie Kondo! Cladwell isn’t Erin’s first startup, and she has so many startup stories to tell. Listen now to hear about my love of the Cladwell App and Erin’s vision for creating personal style with ease. 3:30 – The Erin 101 Erin grew up in Indiana and received a full ride scholarship to play Division II Basketball in Memphis, TN. She played for all four years of college, and very soon after graduating, got married, moved to Pennsylvania, started a new job, and got a dog! This was 2009, the economy was tanking, and Erin could not find a viable job in marketing. She tried for three months to work no-pay internships and as her frustration and grew and her bank account dwindled, Erin decided it was time to take control of her career and her future. Erin started a fashion blog when influencer marketing was just taking off. Erin grew her blog into a small business, working with brands and attending fashion week. Erin noticed a disconnect in communication between brands and bloggers even though it was clear the two markets desired to work together. Erin’s first startup was a business called Canopy. She transitioned her blog into an influencer network and jumped into her first startup experience. She continued to work at it for three years, but it was difficult for consumers to understand this new world of influencer marketing. In 2011, she closed the startup and she and her husband moved back to the Midwest. Erin soon took a job with EW Scripps. EW Scripps owns over 35 television stations over the country. Erin was able to work in an entrepreneurial role there and learned more about starting something new within a company. As Erin felt a desire to get back into the startup world, she also had some angst about it, knowing first-hand the risks, sacrifices, and inevitable failures involved.. She decided to meet with the founder of a company similar to Cladwell, but for men. Erin thought she would try her hand at taking that market to women, and from there Cladwell was born. 8:08 – What Am I Going to Wear Today? When Cladwell first started, it was a platform for men to solve their personal shopping needs, a way to help them figure out what to buy next for their wardrobe. Erin came on board in 2015 when their products were changing and talks about expanding the market to women had just begun. Cladwell became interested in a capsule wardrobe, specifically helping women love and wear every piece of clothing in their closet. Erin’s personal experienced gave more shape to the idea because she’d wake up every morning, open her closet, and have no idea what to wear. Erin didn’t understand how it was possible to “not have anything to wear” when she owned 450 pieces of clothing. She had too many clothes but was still completely unsatisfied with the clothing she already had. She didn’t understand how she’d gotten to that point. Cladwell wanted to approaching personal style with capsule wardrobes to help women become more content with their clothing choices and less overwhelmed with continual shopping and overcrowded closets. The app was developed two and a half years ago to help women with an easy getting ready experience. It helps transform closets over 30, 60, 90 days, etc., to help you narrow down what you actually love and wear most often. The app also helps you declutter, hone-in on your personal style, and shop smarter while inspiring new and creative outfit combinations so that you can continue to wear what you already own in new ways. Cladwell helps you become mindful and thoughtful about what you truly love, which helps reveal your own personal style. Capsule wardrobes also help those who want to shop ethically and reduce waste! 15:16 - Declutter Without Overwhelm You don’t have to add every single piece of clothing you own to the app. You can add your favorite 10 items to start. Cladwell will match that to the 17,000 items they already have in their database. You can also take a photo of your own items and add them to your app. Holding onto things can keep us stuck in the past after we’ve gone through big life experiences and transitions. It can feel like a fresh start to walk into a space that represents how you look and feel in the present as well as how you want to approach the future. A lot of emotional baggage can be held onto in our closets whether because of fear, nostalgia, or a little of both. We are also constantly bombarded with messages to buy more. We shop way too fast and feel pressure to continue acquiring new things. We’re already wearing 20% of what’s in our closets and fall into cycles of thinking we need to start over from scratch when we no longer love our closets. We are tempted to buy more pieces thinking we’ll like something new more that what we already have. 22:33 - Shop Your Own Closet Right before the 1980s, Americans only bought 12 new items per year on average. Today, we are buying 68 items per year. Cladwell offers encouragement to shop what you already have with daily outfit suggestions and recommendations of what to add to your closet to help you create a greater number of outfits with fewer pieces of clothing. Since the app helps you feel like you have a brand-new wardrobe with what you already own, you can be more intentional with your choices when you shop. When you start to narrow down the items you wear most, your personal style starts to appear. It also makes styling and getting ready in the morning a much more simple and enjoyable process. You can also build different capsules for different occasions. This is especially helpful for travel because you can determine 5-7 items to pack that will allow you to combine pieces to create enough looks for 14 days. Sometimes we even shop when we’re bored. Creating capsules and exploring your closet through the Cladwell app can help you stay creative and interested in what you have so it’s literally as if you get to go shopping, but without spending money or adding clutter to your life. Cladwell even has a social media feature to follow other people for ideas, inspiration, and community. You can even cultivate your own style by looking at your friend’s outfits! The app will give you suggestions from your closet based on what your friend is wearing. 34:56 - On the Cladwell Horizon In August, Erin and her husband bought the company. Originally Cladwell was an investor-backed, fast-growth tech startup. They still want to grow, but more importantly, they want to stay loyal to their brand roots and share the mission that people’s clothes and closets matter. The app will be redesigned with a new look and feel this summer. Cladwell is also working on an app for Android phones that they hope to launch soon. 37:24 – Getting to Know Our Guest Tune in as Erin’s answers fun questions like what her hype song would be, what style she thinks people will be nostalgic for in 40 years, and more! Most importantly, hear from Erin about what it means to her to run a business with purpose. Memorable Quotes: 9:42 – “Not being satisfied with my closet kept me on this perpetual cycle of continually shopping, which actually only made the problem worse. “ 11:11 – “It’s a personal styling app that transforms your closet into one you’ll love. We make getting dressed easy every morning with daily outfit recommendations using the clothes in your closet.” 11:51 – “Most people only wear 20% of their closet and hold on to 80% of clutter.” 16:48 – “If you know what you like and you know who you are, you can make so many better decisions. I really believe the closet is representative of your head. If you have a messy closet, you may have a messy head. From there you can really transform the rest of your life.” About Erin Flynn: Erin is the CEO of Cladwell, a personal styling app that transforms your closet into one where you love and wear everything you own and makes getting dressed easy every morning with daily outfit recommendations. Cladwell's been featured on Good Morning America and even done a partnership with Marie Kondo. This is not her first startup and as a self-proclaimed reluctant entrepreneur, she has many startup stories to tell. Erin and her husband Colin reside in Cincinnati with 1 super Irish sounding kid (Rooney) and a very formal puggle named Mr. Pug.

In episode 190, Kestrel welcomes Erin Flynn, the CEO of Cladwell, to the show. A personal styling app, Cladwell allows users to add in their clothes (without taking photos) and it will generate daily outfits personalized for their weather. ”I would go to my closet and say the same thing which is, I have too many clothes and nothing to wear, which was ridiculous because I had over 450 items hanging in my closet — so, there was no reason that I should have nothing to wear.” -Erin Flynn, CEO of Cladwell On this week’s show, Erin shares more on how the financial crisis got her originally into fashion blogging and entrepreneurship. Also, she explains how she first got connected with Cladwell, and eventually decided to purchase it to have more autonomy over the gradual growth of the company. Kestrel and Erin talk a lot about personal style and finding ways to appreciate the clothes we already have. For Erin, she believes that if you don’t understand your personal style, it’s difficult to build a closet that you love. Also, Erin walks us through more on how the Cladwell app works, and the ways it can help you get dressed every day, get in tune with your personal style, and find ways to utilize the pieces in your closet. Kestrel asks Erin to explore the idea of behavior change, and ways in which Cladwell is successfully challenging people to shift their habits to a less is more approach. The below thoughts, ideas + organizations were brought up in this chat: “I was in this endless cycle of shopping, thinking that that would solve my style problem.” “I really believe that everyone has kind of their own unique, personal style, but I also believe that most people don’t know what they like. And so, it’s really hard to build a closet you love when you don’t know what you like.” “We were originally investor-backed … we ultimately ended up buying the company, and the whole goal now is to make it a sustainable and profitable company really driven by our values and our mission.” “It’s really about making the most of your closet, so we’re trying to help you love and wear everything you own.” The app shares this stat: the average person only wears 20% of their closet. The average Cladwell user wears 65% of their closet, and the app can help you track how much of your closet you’re actually wearing.

Ottawa – The National Campus and Community Radio Association/l’Association nationale des radios étudiantes et communautaires (“NCRA/ANREC”) has thrown its support behind We Choose, a campaign sponsored by the watchdog group FRIENDS of Canadian Broadcasting. Canadians support and understand the need for vibrant Canadian media and worry about the scourge of misinformation delivered by social media. FRIENDS’ We Choose campaign is putting that support on the political map as the federal election approaches. Erin Flynn, CHUO Station manager (left), Daniel Bernhard, FRIENDS’ Executive Director (centre), National Campus and Community Radio Association Exec. Dir. Barry Rooke (right). “Our political leaders need to know that voters strongly support public service broadcasting, especially local services, and understand the indispensable role of local voices in our democracy. FRIENDS recognizes that our member stations deliver a vital public service. That’s why we are supporting this essential campaign,” says NCRA/ANREC Executive Director Barry Rooke. “We will be encouraging our members and supporters to participate in FRIENDS’ campaign in any way they can,” says Rooke. FRIENDS is distributing We Choose Canada, We Choose CBC and We Choose Canadian Journalism lawn signs in 22 battleground ridings to demonstrate the full extent to which voters will support policies – and politicians – that strengthen public service broadcasters and all Canadian media. Volunteers in these ridings are taking the campaign to community events and are also briefing candidates one on one. “We are extremely pleased that the NCRA has thrown its support behind this campaign,” says FRIENDS Executive Director Daniel Bernhard. “The NCRA represents a very important group of public service broadcasters who help to keep our democracy alive and our communities connected in increasingly difficult conditions. Canada needs this campaign to succeed, and with the NCRA on board, our prospects for success have markedly improved.” Canadian journalism is gravely endangered. During the past ten years, thousands of journalists have been laid off. 250 media outlets have closed, many in small- and medium-sized communities with few alternative sources of news and information. Meanwhile, CBC/Radio-Canada remains one of the most poorly funded public broadcasters in the developed world. “Our democracy needs more journalists and local media,” says Daniel Bernhard, Executive Director of FRIENDS. “It’s time for Ottawa to support our media and end the special treatment that gives foreign media giants like Facebook and Google an unfair advantage over our own media.” The federal government has acknowledged the journalism crisis. But Ottawa’s bailout package is grossly inadequate compared to the magnitude of the problem. And it does nothing to deal with the root source of the problem: the flight of advertising revenue to foreign digital publishers which Canadian tax policy actively encourages. This major oversight has been noted by the journalism organizations asked by the federal government to help design the bailout program. FRIENDS of Canadian Broadcasting is a non-partisan watchdog group supported by 364,000 Canadians that works to keep Canadian story-telling and journalism strong on air and online. The National Campus and Community Radio Association/L'Association nationale des radios étudiantes et communautaires (“NCRA/ANREC”) is a not-for-profit national association working to recognize, support, and encourage volunteer-based, non-profit, public-access campus, community and native radio broadcasters in Canada. Our goals are to ensure stability and support for individual stations, and to promote the long-term growth and effectiveness of the sector. More than 100 campus and community radio stations across the country belong to the association. -30- For information: Jim Thompsonjim@friends.ca 613-447-9592 NCRA/ANREC Contact: Barry Rooke barry@ncra.ca 613-321-1440

In this episode, I talk to Erin Flynn; a web designer based in Aspen, Colorado but with a difference. Despite starting her career within the web design and development industry, as she focuses on helping other designers and developers to run their business more efficiently and effectively. I first spotted Erin after reading a blog about her 5-year self-employment anniversary and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to invite her onto the show and to talk more about her journey. Here are just a few things we talk about: the 18-year journey which led to becoming self-employment why being yourself has more benefits than pretending to be like others how keeping things simple when starting your own site is the best thing to do the benefits of consistent communications with your clients "...keep your clients happy while you're building them a website is a weekly email or a weekly check in.

Erin Flynn has mastered something we've ALL encountered at one time or another... how to deal with nightmare clients. Not only does she help you grow your freelance business but how about how to handle those clients that make you want to quit what you're doing? (Kinda makes you want to send her a virtual hug already, doesn't it?). I was fortunate to connect to Erin through a mutual friend, Curtis McHale (who I had on the podcast a couple months ago). Erin does a lot more than just help you deal with nightmare clients (although of course, that was one of the things I had to delve deeper into. We've ALL been there and have that crazy story of working with someone that made our lives a living hell). Erin has built up her own business (design and websites) and is growing it through a membership program (which she has a free membership also) and courses. I love it. Erin has been involved in web design since she was 13 and building Sailor Moon fan sites (the beauty of growing up with technology, huh?). After college, she went out and got a job (like we're all 'supposed' to do) and ended up hating it. She hated it so much that she literally just quit one day (something I know many people would love to be able to do). Fortunately, she's figured out the freelancing space and is sharing her knowledge and skills with other people so you can avoid some of the mistakes she's made. She's now transitioning to an agency and has tons of training available to help you grow your business and position yourself as an expert. Questions I Asked Erin I always want to know what led someone down the entrepreneurial path. Have you always worked for yourself? What brought you here? What is your current business? You have courses & workshops, did you start with services? Let's talk about Nightmare Clients. What made you decide to offer help with this? I love the "screen, prevent, fire"... can you explain what that is? You also have a membership for growing your business. Can you share a little bit about the Unstoppable Expedition? What would you recommend to someone who wants to start a membership? What's on the horizon for you this year? What You're Going to Learn How Erin approaches everything in her business How a conversation on Twitter turned into a community on Facebook How her communication skills led to her first product that sold a few hundred right out the gate Why positioning yourself as the expert is key when starting a new project Why Erin thinks you should work with a couple nightmare clients (hint: boundaries) Where to Connect with Erin Website | Twitter | Facebook
