Episode SummaryIn this raw and revealing Fail Forward Friday episode, Heather shares two contrasting stories from her own business journey: why she persisted with her Sunday newsletter after two years of declining engagement, and why she completely pivoted away from YouTube after a controversial interview led to algorithmic exile. Through these parallel experiences, she explores the crucial difference between productive persistence and digital self-harm.The StoriesThe Newsletter Journey: After 88 editions over two years, spending 4+ hours every Sunday writing, Heather watched her email bounce rates rise and open rates plummet. On the verge of quitting, she asked the universe for a sign - and got a response after edition 86 that led to new business. She persisted.The YouTube Pivot: Following a controversial interview, Heather's YouTube channel went from hundreds of views to literally zero - not just new videos, but even older content was algorithmically suppressed. Recognising the need to niche down in today's landscape, she pivoted completely to LinkedIn, launching an AI-focused newsletter for transformational practitioners.Key Topics CoveredRecognising the difference between productive persistence and stubborn repetitionReading micro-signals versus macro-resultsHow algorithms can completely reshape your digital strategyThe importance of niching down in today's content landscapeWhen to trust your energy levels as crucial business dataPivoting your method while maintaining your missionChapters:00:32 - The Balance of Persistence and Letting Go02:21 - A Tale of Two Journeys03:39 - The Pivot Decision: Learning from YouTube's Founders05:19 - Navigating Persistence and Pivoting06:45 - The Signals of ChangeThree Core LessonsLook for micro-signals, not just macro-results - Small signs of engagement matter more than vanity metricsTrust your energy - Generative challenge feels different from soul-crushing strugglePivot your method, not your mission - Stay true to your purpose while being flexible about your platformThis Week's Reality CheckStrip away all the "shoulds" and "I've already invested so much time" and ask: What does your gut tell you about your current path?

Can you recover from failure through reinvention? Today, we're diving deep into the art and heart of reinvention with none other than Gigi Butler, the visionary founder of Gigi's Cupcakes. While Gigi is known for her sweet success, her journey is anything but easy. From cleaning houses and chasing a country music dream to building a nationwide cupcake empire—only to face major setbacks during the pandemic—Gigi's story is a true testament to failing forward. In this conversation, recorded live at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention, Gigi opens up about the gritty realities behind entrepreneurship, the emotional toll of failure, and the powerful process of rediscovering purpose.

Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur, someone in a season of transition, or looking for encouragement to overcome fear, this episode will deliver wisdom, warmth, and a reminder that it's never too late to flourish—by evolving rather than dissolving.

Let's be honest, training can spark short-term results, but if you want long-term recruiting success, you need a team that lives in a growth mindset. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I break down how to create a learning culture that fuels consistency, creativity, and long-term momentum. This isn't about more courses or another playbook. It's about shaping a culture where people chase improvement, not because you make them, but because it's who they are. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – Why most teams flatline after early wins—and how to fix it with a growth culture. [01:00] Step 1: Model It from the Top – If you're not growing, your team won't either. Share what you're learning and experimenting with. [02:00] Step 2: Build It Into the Rhythm – Weekly skill clinics, role plays, book clubs, and "teach-back" moments create learning momentum. [03:00] Step 3: Celebrate Growth Behaviors – Don't just recognize hires; reward script tweaks, learning reps, and initiative. [04:00] Step 4: Create Psychological Safety – Give your team permission to fail forward. Growth can't happen if fear dominates the room. [05:00] Step 5: Align Systems to Support Growth – Track and coach development behaviors, not just outputs. Reinforce the right things. [06:00] Final Challenge – Audit your culture. Ask: Are we learning? Sharing? Modeling? If not, start with one small rhythm and build from there. Key Takeaways You Set the Growth Ceiling – If you're not learning, neither is your team. Model curiosity, not just execution. Make Learning Normal – Growth won't scale if it's optional. Systematize it with intentional rhythms. Reward Process, Not Just Production – Celebrate the learner, not just the closer. Fail Forward, Together – Safe teams grow faster. Normalize iteration and experimentation. Track Growth Like You Track Results – If it matters, measure it. Progress becomes culture when it's visible. The strongest recruiting teams aren't the ones who have it all figured out—they're the ones who never stop improving. Build a culture where growth isn't just encouraged. It's expected.

As more mothers enter the world of entrepreneurship, studies show that balancing passion and family can be overwhelming - even paralyzing. The pressure to turn a passion into a profitable business while keeping up with the demands of parenting can leave many feeling unsure of where to start or whether they have what it takes. With social media filled with perfect images of other moms seemingly "doing it all," it's easy to feel like you're falling short if your journey isn't picture-perfect. But here's the truth: Success doesn't require perfection, and you don't need to have it all figured out before you begin. What if instead of waiting for the "right time" or having the perfect setup, you took the chance by “failing forward”? Could being messy and imperfect actually be the secret to making your passion profitable? In this episode, I talk to cookbook and Substack author, Caroline Chambers, who built a successful business while balancing motherhood. She shares why action is the key to clarity and how to start small, monetize trust, and grow your passion without waiting for the perfect moment. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Why You Should Be Open to Change If you're feeling stuck, it might be because the path you're on isn't where your true passion lies, and trying something new could open doors you never knew existed. Are you holding yourself back by staying in your current routine? “Failing Forward” is Okay Success comes from learning, not perfection. What could you achieve if you let go of needing everything to be perfect and just started? Turn Trust into a Business Building real trust with your community encourages support and can create opportunities for making money. Have you thought about how you could turn the trust people have in you into something valuable? Guest Bio Caroline Chambers grew up in the kitchen on her mom's hip, learning how to cook in their Winston-Salem, North Carolina, home. Her professional food career began in her early twenties when she worked as a chef and caterer. After a stint in a professional test kitchen, Caro struck out on her own as a freelancer, developing recipes for a host of publications as well as brands such as Boursin Cheese and Kim Crawford Wine, and in 2018, she published her first cookbook, Just Married. In 2020—at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic—Caro began sharing her recipes and connecting with home cooks on Instagram (@carochambers ), and launched her newsletter, What to Cook When You Don't Feel Like Cooking, which flew to the top of the Substack charts; her podcast, So Into That, followed in 2023. Caro's latest cookbook, What To Cook When You Don't Feel Like Cooking, is available for pre-order and will be out on August 13, 2024. Caro lives in Carmel Valley, California, with her husband, George, and their three young sons, Mattis, Calum, and Cashel—one of whom can almost always be found in the kitchen on her hip.
