In understanding the current administration's draconian deportation policies, nothing makes sense except in the light of white supremacy.  The underlying animating force of these policies, openly stated by Tom Homan during a white house press conference, is "the great replacement theory".  Propagated by white nationalist, white supremacist fascists, operating in and out of government, it's a lie that has resulted in depraved acts of racist and antisemitic violence (See Southern Poverty Law Center link below).    Sadly, the DHS, ICE, and other federal agencies have become something resembling the American gestapo, attempting to reduce the number of non-whites in this country, to retain power in perpetuity.  In furtherance of these policies, they are arresting judges, conducting warrantless searches of homes and businesses, and even raiding US congressional offices and detaining staffers, again without warrants.  They are threatening prison for even speaking out against these actions.     In Part 2 of our collaboration with the Truth Be Found Podcast, we talk about the terrifying erosion of our civil rights and the racist rhetoric underpinning the worst actions of our government.     IN THIS EPISODE: Justin Yentes describes the prison where Mr. Abrego-Garcia is held; The history of El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's total erosion of Due Process in his own country; The real risk of harm and even death Mr. Abrego-Garcia faces in this facility; Expert consultant, former gang member describes the BOP's approach to “gang management”; Practical tips for defense lawyers dealing with gang designation in a Pre-Sentence report; Tom Homan espouses racist, white-nationalist, “great replacement theory” to justify his draconian immigration policies.

This week on The Found Podcast, we're continuing our conversation on one of the most important ingredients for female entrepreneurs and small business owners in 2025: community. And who better to help us dig deeper into this topic than returning guest and true community-building expert, Emily Reuschel? Emily is a rural wife, mom, and multi-passionate entrepreneur with a heart for growth and connection. From her early career as a teacher and camp counselor to her current work facilitating masterminds and leading in-person retreats, Emily's mission is clear: help women come home to themselves and find belonging with others. In this episode, we explore the many forms community can take: virtual, in-person, and even niche-based (yes, we even have a moment to ooh and aah over the Empyrean series!). Emily brings her grounded insight, tangible advice, and heartfelt encouragement to the table, reminding us that finding your people starts with intention, energy, and a willingness to be seen. If you've been craving real connection this year, or wondering where to even begin, this conversation is a must-listen. And be sure to stick around all the way to the end. Emily's final thoughts are a gentle but powerful nudge to take the next step. In this episode, we cover: Emily's journey from educator to community leader The value and dynamics of virtual vs. local communities How shared passions and niche interests can create unexpected bonds The energy and magic that come from intentional gatherings Practical tips for finding or creating community that fits you How vulnerability leads to deeper connection—online and offline Resources & Links:

Hey friend, welcome back to The Found Podcast! If there's one thing I've learned in my years of business, it's this: You cannot do this alone. No matter how independent, driven, or capable you are, success is never a solo journey. Yet, so many ambitious women hesitate to reach out, lean on others, or build the community they need to thrive. In this episode, I share my journey of discovering the power of community, from my first vision-boarding session with EmpowerHer to the mastermind groups and business friendships that have shaped my success. We dive into why finding your people is crucial and how you can start building your own circle of support today. What You'll Learn: Why isolation leads to burnout (and how to avoid it!) The importance of surrounding yourself with the right people who challenge and support you Actionable steps to find, build, and nurture your community How to let go of the "I can do it all by myself" mentality and lean on others when needed Key Takeaways: You are not alone. Find the right community that aligns with your goals and values. Your community should challenge you. Growth happens when you step outside your comfort zone. Success isn't about doing it all. It's about knowing who to call when you need help. If you're feeling isolated while you pursue your ambitious goals, take this episode as your sign to get started in finding your people.   

This week on The Found Podcast, I'm joined by the hilarious and insightful Lauren Trefethren—the creative force behind the beloved Instagram account Lauren Midwest. If you love Midwest culture, motherhood musings, and content that perfectly balances humor and heart, you're in for a treat. Lauren's journey is anything but conventional (which is what I LOVE). She started as a school counselor, but life had other plans. Now, she's building a thriving online community by sharing relatable, laugh-out-loud Midwest moments while also tackling deeper topics like grief, identity, and the realities of content creation. Oh yeah, and did I mention that as of March 26, you can now catch her on Netflix's new reality show Million Dollar Secret? Yeah, she's on that. In this episode, we dive into: ▪️Lauren's unexpected career pivot from counseling to content creation ▪️The highs and lows of showing up authentically online ▪️The challenges and misconceptions of being a full-time creator ▪️A nostalgic trip back to mid-2000s culture during our small talk round And because we like to keep it real, we're also letting you in on some serious tech struggles we had while recording this episode (Zoom, why must you test us?!). Hit play now and let us know: What's your favorite Midwest stereotype that you 100% live by?

Welcome back to The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth! In this episode, we kick off Women's History Month with a deep dive into the state of women in 2025, the third year in a row of this particular episode format. This week I reflect on the challenges women face in the workforce, access to childcare, pay disparity, and political representation. Drawing from research, statistics, and personal experiences, we discuss how much progress has been made and how far we still have to go. I also explore the importance of finding personal success and working together as women to overcome obstacles and move mountains....because none of us can do this work alone, we were never meant to. Key topics include: The impact of childcare costs and accessibility on women in 2025 The current state of gender pay disparity Representation of women in government and politics The overwhelming nature of social media and how to manage information overload about what women "should" be pursuing The power of women uniting and finding their unique paths to success Resources: Blog post with detailed citations and sources now available at mollyknuthmedia.com/blog. Listen in to explore these critical issues and how we can all contribute to positive change for women's futures!

In this episode of The Found Podcast, I'm sitting down with a guest whose words have been inspiring me for years—poet and author Jennae Cecelia. If you've ever found yourself drawn to poetry as a way to process emotions, reconnect with your values, or simply feel seen, this conversation is for you. Jennae shares her journey of discovering poetry as her calling, the role of creativity in personal growth, and how writing has helped her (and so many others) return to themselves. We also dive into the process of writing — how she's structured her days and her life to make room for writing and celebrating life. If you're a woman navigating change, seeking creative expression, or dreaming of publishing your own words, Jennae's story will remind you that your voice matters. In This Episode, We Cover: ✨ Jennae's journey to finding herself through writing ✨ Practical insights into her writing and creative process ✨ How the publishing world has evolved—and what it's like to self-publish a book AND an exciting announcement about something new in 2025! ✨ Why creativity is a necessary part of reconnecting with who you are More About Jennae Cecelia: Jennae is a poet and best-selling author who has been sharing her words with the world since 2017. With multiple self-published collections under her belt, she is now preparing to release her first traditionally published book later this year—a major milestone in her career. Through her work, Jennae encourages women to embrace creativity as a way to process emotions and rediscover themselves.

It's 2025, and I'm kicking off the year (okay, I know, it is February already, but I'm just getting warmed up over here) with some thoughts on what women—especially ambitious moms, business owners, and entrepreneurs—don't need more of this year. Spoiler alert: it's not another free download that's only two pages long, another social media platform, or another "life-changing" productivity hack. In this episode, I'm sharing how I eased into the new year (hello, sauna time and slow workouts) and a download of information that hit me on a random Saturday. We're talking about stripping away the excess and focusing on what really matters: creating instead of consuming, making space for what we love, and redefining success on our terms. Tune in to hear: How I intentionally eased into 2025 Why women don't need more shoulds this year What it really looks like to align with your own values The power of connection, third spaces, and nerding out over what you love Why you were never meant to do life alone as an ambitious woman It's time to stop chasing more and start making space for what truly fuels us.

What are you wondering about in 2025? “Wonder” is my word of the year, and over here I've been wondering: What don't I know yet? What do I want/need to learn this year? What does work look like in the months ahead? Where do I need to slow down? What do I need to stop doing? What does my audience need to hear? Want to hear? What moments in my life made me know “wonder?” So I took a little pause on recording and producing new episodes to make space and get perspective, and this episode is the product of all that wondering. The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth will be back weekly in February with more stories and strategies for finding ourselves while founding businesses as ambitious women.

Last week both in our email and on The Found Podcast, we dove into the concept of “resilience” and how the people we surround ourselves with can help us through the highs and lows that come with being small business owners and entrepreneurs.   Our discussion drew upon the Harvard Business Review article entitled “The Secret to Building Resilience” by Rob Cross, Karen Dillon, and Danna Greenberg.   In their article, the authors found that resilience has been shown to positively influence work satisfaction and engagement, as well as improve overall well-being, and lower depression levels.   But they are very clear that resilience isn't just a kind of solitary internal “grit” that allows us to bounce back. Their research shows that resilience is also heavily enabled by strong relationships and networks.   Using that as our model for resilience, I can apply it to many interactions in my personal and professional life.    I can apply it to various seasons in my personal life and my business at Molly Knuth Media, but I also think we can apply it to our business marketing, because Lord knows we need to bounce back from setbacks often when our marketing plans go awry.   So in today's episode of the podcast, I ask the question: “How can we stay resilient in our marketing?”   Molly's thoughts on resilient marketing: People do business with people. You choose the marketing trends, don't let the trends choose you. Tell stories in your marketing content, assets, and channels. Focus on long-term impact, not short-term wins. In today's episode (Number 182 now streaming on iTunes and Spotify), I go into detail about how you can use these resilient marketing methods for your own business in Q4 of 2024 and beyond.

"And so that's what I think about with resilience too, like, it's not this innate ability, it's a nurtured capacity. And that's something that I talk about a lot, is that, you know, it's not a matter of willpower, it's a matter of wellness...we're all resilient. We just need to nurture that capacity." - Whitney Sullivan Resilience is defined as the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. As women, as business owners, as family members, as friends, as HUMANS, we have all had difficulties that we have had to recover from quickly. We've failed at tasks, missed deadlines, and had unexpected health issues pop up. We've dropped the ball, we've said the wrong thing, we've done the wrong thing, and we've had challenges put upon us by ourselves and others. It's not a matter of if we'll need to be resilient in times where things don't go as planned, but a matter of when and how we will be expected to be resilient. Resilience isn't easy, it isn't comfortable to cultivate, but it is important to become aware of so we can support ourselves and others through hardships. In today's mini-episode of The Found Podcast, we talk about cultivating resilience in regards to this moment in time in the United States, and how we will all need to practice resilience in the days and weeks ahead. My friend and upcoming podcast guest, Whitney Sullivan who is an expert on resilience, shares her perspective on resilience and how to support ourselves in the process.  

The world must find hope in the finished work of Jesus Christ. What we see cannot dominate what we believe!

My challenge for you today, listener: how many giggles did you hear in the duration of the episode?   In today's episode of The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, you'll hear one of only a handful of in-personal interviews I've ever conducted for the podcast. The level of fun and depth and love in the room is palpable as I sit down with an inspirational woman in business, author, coach, speaker, MKM client, and most importantly, my friend, Lindsay Leahy.   Though she's been on the podcast in the past with her bestie and business partner at The Restoration Project Brooke Fitzgerald in Episode 66 Living, Leading, and Working with Meaning, in today's episode we talk about not just their business, but also the writing of her new book Take It All Apart. The Restoration Process At The Restoration Project, their team of leadership coaches walks their clients, whether individuals, teams, or entire organizations through their signature process of: Building Connection: to self, others, and something greater. Restoring Intention: explore and define identity, vision, intention, and meaning, then build a plan. Inspiring Action: establish new practices, systems, rituals, and routines. Writing a Book As someone who has always enjoyed writing, Lindsay says that she faced challenges she wasn't expecting when writing her first book:  Practically and tactically it was hard to do the writing. Sharing lived experience was hard at times. “What if people think this sucks?” Due to her identity as a writer, Lindsay shares that it feels strange to put her words and writing style on display for the world. Regardless of the struggles it presented, Lindsay shares that writing Take It All Apart has resulted in her feeling more poised in her own practice, more refined in her process of coaching and writing. Connect with Lindsay Lindsay Leahy is a proud wife, daughter, auntie, and friend. She is passionate about Jesus, hugs, dreams, adventures, and deep conversation. She is the creator of the blog Grit, Gratitude, and Grace and the founder and Dream Builder at The Restoration Project, a women-owned coaching and consulting practice that provides experiences, programs, and services to improve organizational health, team and leadership effectiveness and individual well-being.   Lindsay is the author of Take it All Apart, debuting October 2024.

We've made it.   The dog days of summer.    This time of year, we can have so many of these schedule interruptions or things that happen in life that pull us away from our businesses. Time compressed and condensed: we're outside more, we have more social gatherings, and life just happens at a quicker pace.   With our guest today, Miss Aly Robbins, we're reminded of those foundational pieces of our business that we can put in place, especially for service providers. These six foundational components ensure our business is solid and can run the way we want it to, in order to provide exceptional client and customer experience for the people we serve.   I love that her six-step process is a metaphor that is easy to picture and take action on. Just like doing what you can to make sure your plants can grow (whether you're an indoor plant mama or you're growing your gardens this summer), you need to provide essential elements for your business to grow: leadership - sunlight marketing - water sales - nutrients mindset - soil offer - seeds backend systems and processes - air temperature   Aly is engaging, insightful, resourceful, and I know you are going to connect with her and her message in today's episode of The Found Podcast.   Key Takeaways: 8:26 - Aly's multiple entrepreneurial ventures and what they've taught her to help her clients 13:18 - The importance of money mindset 18:56 - 6 essential components of growing a business 21:30 - leadership (sunlight) 28:07 - marketing (water) 32:29 - sales (nutrients) 35:59 - mindset (soil) 42:10 - offer (seeds) 43:53 - backend systems + processes (air temperature) More About Aly Robins Aly Robins is a serial entrepreneur who helps people like you grow their business and reach their first $50k through 1:1 business coaching and group coaching.

She was full-time as a rangeland specialist and building her business on the side. But she was experiencing trials and tribulations trying to break through income levels that she knew were possible but were hard for her to attain.  After investing in her business by hiring a marketing coach and working with several business coaches over time, Allie learned so much about not just marketing, but about the foundational components of building a sustainable business using her signature six-step process.   Get more information on her process at alyrobins.com or follow her on Instagram at @alyrobins1.   Helpful Links Aly Robins Website Aly on Instagram Aly's Podcast  Donald Miller Business Made Simple Donald Miller Building a Story Brand Carol Dweck Mindset Chris Harder Money Mindset Episode with Sheila Hansen Molly's Money Mindset & Finance Journey Sheila Hansen's Podcast Gina Knox's Podcast

Starting or growing a service provider business in 2024? Then you will NOT want to miss this episode, my friend. In today's episode of The Found Podcast, I'm breaking down the phases of business evolution into three key parts: Baby businesses - aka: those new businesses that are somewhere from 0 to 1-2 years in, getting the lay of the land, experiencing all that life has to offer, high highs and low lows. Childhood businesses - aka: years 1-3 in business, really learning at a rapid rate and establishing yourself by the rules. Teen businesses - aka: years 3 to 6, where you're feeling like you want to make a name for yourself, where you want to test the limits and test the boundaries, you're considering reinvention and breaking out of norms. Bonus: Young adult business years - aka: years 6+, that I'm in the midst of myself!  For each of these phases of business, I'm going to point out three key components/actions I recommend to business owners in this phase. We're also going to talk about key marketing targets that I would focus on if I was in that phase of business so you can maximize your time, energy, and resources. I'll be telling stories and giving examples throughout from my own experience thus far with Molly Knuth Media, all the highs, lows, and in-betweens. I'm hoping that with your listening experience today, you'll be able to hear some of your own story, regardless of what phase of business you're in.

6 Figure Saver is open for enrollment until June 28th, learn more about the program here: https://ginaknox.co/6-figure-saver Episode Synopsis: In this conversation, Gina Knox interviews Molly Knuth, a six-figure saver and fractional CMO. They discuss Molly's journey as a business owner and the importance of financial management. Molly shares how she transitioned to the role of CMO and the impact it had on her finances. She emphasizes the significance of tracking numbers, setting financial goals, and paying herself a healthy owner's pay. They also discuss the challenges women face when it comes to talking about money and the importance of creating safe spaces to have these conversations. Molly encourages women entrepreneurs to seek support and education to improve their financial confidence. About Molly Knuth: Molly Knuth is a small-town Iowa girl who thought she wanted to be a high school teacher. After 3 years instructing on all things Shakespeare and American authors and many years of subbing, life called Molly out of the classroom and into the role of stay-at-home mom. …AND THAT'S WHEN THINGS GOT INTERESTING. You see, being a stay-at-home mom was great, but Molly knew that she needed a little more. And she knew there were lots of small-town business owners in her hometown of Cascade, Iowa, who could use some assistance in their daily operations. So after helping one business owner set up his company on the new Facebook Business Pages and running some successful campaigns, another local owner reached out asking for social media help, then another and another, and in 2017 Molly Knuth Media was born. Since then, Molly Knuth Media has evolved from a solo freelance social media marketing operation to a one-stop shop marketing agency for small-town businesses. In 2024, Molly stepped away from the agency model and into the realm of being a Fractional CMO and Consultant for women-owned businesses looking to bring alignment and intention to their marketing. Molly also hosts The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, helping women found businesses and find themselves along the way through holistic strategies and storytelling. Molly believes women can do big things from anywhere with a business that supports their goals and aligns with their ideal customers and clients. And she's here to support you along the way.

In this episode format called “Coaching Calls,” a small business owner/entrepreneur is given an opportunity to submit a question they would like me to answer about marketing, business growth, personal development, or anything that's on their mind!   Today's submission is from a fellow marketer in northeast Iowa, Alex Monaghan of MAK Marketing, who asked, “How do you keep up with the algorithm?”   This is a layered question, but it's one I think we all need a reminder of as we promote our products and services, specifically on social media.   Key Takeaways: “The Meta algorithms, so Facebook and Instagram, and those are really driven by engagement. And engagement on those platforms looks like a hierarchy of interactions.” “A video engagement is considered a three-second view.” “What might my ideal audience be looking for? What are the words they're going to use? What are some of the phrases that they might search? And we want to make sure that we include those in our titles and in our captions to help those algorithms serve our content more.” “So I've learned over the years, there is…a very distinct difference between marketing for a product based business and marketing for a service based business.” “My perspective has always been to just give, and the right people will find me.”   Time Stamps:   3:27 Meet Alex 7:04 “What is an algorithm?” 7:47 Meta algorithms 10:09 TikTok algorithm 11:24 YouTube & Pinterest algorithms 13:25 Timing the algorithms 23:03 How much is too much information to share?   A little more about Alex and MAK Marketing Co MAK Marketing Co is a full-service marketing agency that helps rural, family-owned businesses bring their stories to life.

This one is for the ladies out there….myself included.   Over the past few years, I have been on a health journey.    In 2015, I found strength training and really loved how my brain and body responded to weight lifting (more on that in this episode from the Re-Find miniseries of the podcast). Then, in 2018, I dove into nutrition and started paying attention to macro rations, portion sizes, and caloric deficits with the help of my friend Coach Erika at Sweat Inspire Sisterhood (hear from her in one of the very first episodes of the podcast).    But in the years since, with the Covid of it all, different seasons of business, and stressful life circumstances, I've found myself at my heaviest weight ever and carrying a LOT of it in my midsection.   I've been pretty vulnerable sharing about this journey on my Instagram Stories, and thankfully through the magic of social media I was able to connect with Bri Edwards, owner and integrative nutrition health coach at Healthy Foundations Dubuque.   Through her proven Mind Body Nutrition Method, Bri guides women to their healthiest and most vibrant selves.    Because she believes you don't have to continue looking for the next right diet.   You don't have to continue looking for the next right fitness plan.   You don't need to push harder.    You don't need to have greater self control.    You just need to unlearn and relearn the truths about your body as a woman, nutrition and how you can utilize both to transform your life.   In this episode with Bri, you'll learn simple steps to set you up for success each day, ways to manage your stress levels through the foods you're eating, and how to listen to your body in order to understand what you need most.   This is an episode every woman needs to hear.

In this episode…chaos ensues. Wardrobe malfunctions, losing my train of thought, jumping from topic-to-topic, this episode and all that happens within is very fluid and unscripted: much like my business and motherhood journey. I'm not exaggerating when I saw that within the first five minutes of this episode, you'll hear the most embarrassing mishap of my podcasting journey so far…and we're over 160 episodes in!   As we open the month of June here at The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, we are breaking down what I've learned in my 7+ years of business, and how my experience as a woman has largely affected the way I show up as a leader and entrepreneur.   Key Takeaways 10:05 The boobs of it all: minimizing myself, my talents, and my gifts and playing small, much like the pre-pubescent me who wanted to minimize certain “aspects” of myself. 20:40 The bullshit of it all: the structures we still ascribe to in 2024 that were put in place in the patriarchal 1940s and 1950s. From overtly misaligned gender norms to even subtle aspects of our work expectations, women have to handle a lot of extra bullshit as they are building their businesses. 34:20 The burnout of it all: ladies, we simply try to handle SO much. Trying to be strong all the time, trying to feel and look like we've got our shit together, and knowing that it doesn't feel as good on the inside as we sometimes see on the outside can come at a cost. Without properly practicing self-awareness and putting supports in place, we can teeter into the land of burnout when we try to tackle too much on our personal and professional journeys. 14:27 “A lot of what I've been learning in recent years about the choices we make as adults is rooted and grounded in some of the experiences and thoughts that we had as children.” 18:18 “I knew for sure that the people that I saw running businesses or thought of as these, like, great business minds, whether locally or  on the internet, they didn't look like me. They didn't look like a mom who was in her sweatpants and a hat. in her office with three kids coloring on the floor behind her.” 20:40 “What I'm talking about here is the natural way that our bodies work, the hormones and how women operate on a monthly cycle. I'm talking about how we have emotions and feelings and those should not be separate from business. Business is personal.” Helpful Resources Episode 137: “Wholly Herself with Jada Dobesh” Our guest next week, Bri Edwards, teaches women all about hormone health and nutrition Episode 7: “What I Learned from Being a Waitress”

This is one of my favorite things to do ever: take YOUR burning questions and answer them live.    Just last month in April of 2024, I had the privilege of speaking to a group of approximately 150 people at the Young Professionals Association of Dubuque, Iowa. They had me in to talk about marketing and how to get seen by more people, particularly through your digital marketing strategies.   When I went to  this function, I love to share what I know and came prepared with slides, supportive resources, and a 45-minute planned speech. But, as with many programs I've been to before, I felt like the biggest takeaways came from the Q&A portion of the event. When we have an opportunity to ask burning questions from the audience in order to get the perspective of the speaker, it engages the participants and allows for real-time learning and application.   This episode is the result of all those fantastic questions the YP attendees submitted.   Read below for a preview of some of the topics we cover (and my answers) and a few helpful links for more information!   2:37 Question 1: Where did you get your blazer? Answer 1: Old Navy   3:27 Question 2: How do you encourage a client to utilize all parts of the flywheel in their marketing when a decent amount of local businesses have small budgets? Answer 2: So this is a fantastic question. If you want to know what the heck is a flywheel, go over to my episode from the beginning of May, the very first episode, episode 162. That one's going to be all about the marketing flywheel, and how I encourage my audience or sorry, how I encourage my clients to develop a more holistic marketing strategy.   Short story: I would remind you that good marketing doesn't mean you have to pay more for it.  It just means that you are doing things in a way that your audience recognizes and appreciates, and you are meeting them where they are.   For example, in the attraction phase of your marketing, I really do recommend that you're doing things in your strategy that are getting new eyeballs on you. This could mean collaborations. For example, I bring guests onto my podcast. It doesn't cost them any money to come be a guest with me, but it's opening them up to a whole new audience.  If they go and do two podcast guest spots a month, then they're open to two new audiences each month. They're attracting a lot more people in.   It's not costing them money. It's just costing them time. And that's helping them really get clear on where their time and energy and efforts are spent for that attraction phase of their marketing.    12:21 Question 3: Have you ever worked on a hiring campaign for a client? And if you have, what was successful and what was not so successful?   24:19 Question 4: Should a business still be using Twitter/X?   27:27 Question 5: What are your thoughts on Pinterest? Tap here to listen to a recent episode on this very topic!   34:31 Question 6: Besides social media, where else should you market in person events?   40:58 Question 7: Platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn have become flooded with entrepreneurs and businesses competing for the attention of their audience. They've essentially become red oceans (tap here for more info on the blue ocean vs. red ocean analogy). Has the shift away from traditional marketing actually created a large opportunity for some savvy people to leverage it?

Much like Chik-Fil-A, this week's episode was a pleasure! Sincerely.   Today on the podcast, we welcome not one, but two guests: Jan + Erin Johnson of Trailblazher Co. They're a mother daughter duo of multi-passionate women who have developed the grit, resilience, and gutsiness that comes from the ups and downs of being entrepreneurs over the past 24 years in business - together!   As you'll hear them share in today's episode, Jan + Erin's skillsets complement one another so well, and together they love to create and bring new ideas to life. While they love working alongside one another, their true joy comes from sharing stories of rural women across North America.   Through their work at Trailblazher Co, they not only publish a gorgeous quarterly magazine, host a weekly podcast and connect rural women, but they're inspiring women along the way.  As you'll hear in today's episode, we cover a lot of ground, but the common thread is all about telling our stories as women. And how the peaks, the pits and everything in between can help the next generation of women who want to live rural and who want to grow rural businesses.    This conversation is incredible, and I think you, like me will laugh, tear up, and feel so much joy and gratitude from the lessons Jan + Erin teach us in today's episode of The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth.    Key Takeaways “We are storytellers” “We use the word trailblazher because [the women we feature] have that grit and resilience and risk taking and bravery, and we're astounded, honestly, every week with the women that we talked to and what they're creating in their life and all the things that they have going on. And despite all of that, they're so determined to bring their biggest dreams to life.” “It hasn't been a linear path. It's been messy at times. It's been on our knees like, Oh my gosh, what are we going to do next? But that thread that connects us is this purpose.  and drive to make an impact in women's lives. And where does that come from? I'm not really sure. Maybe it is to grow ourselves into the biggest and best version of who we are.” “No path is linear. No, it just, it just isn't. And that's what makes for great stories, right?” “You have to go through some personal growth, some,  sometimes some dark valleys, sometimes you're at the height of the mountaintop, but it's in that, that you find yourself, you get even more grounded into your purpose. And then you've got these great stories to share with others.” “How many other women have wares or goods like fresh produce that they want to sell and they need help with getting it out there? And so we actually started with, it was called at the time, The Rural Collective, and it was a directory to help rural women list their businesses so that we could find each other and have women in the cities find them rurally.” “Stretch out. Reach out to people who are ahead of you, who could mentor you, help you, advise you, consult with you.” “Every story of every person who you know, they have these same stories of times they tried things. They were gutsy, and they took a chance and they made it took a risk…maybe didn't work, but it gave them the knowledge to try something else or to pivot just slightly into the thing that made it work.” “Inspiration is at the root of creativity, inspiration, joy.”     More about Jan & Erin   Jan is the connector on the Trailblazher Co team. Her jam is content writing and ideas. Whether writing feature stories for Trailblazher magazine, web content or upcoming course materials, Jan is gifted with a pen! She is naturally skilled at connecting ideas in ways that influence the direction of the company. Jan is also a gifted people person and insightful communicator striving always to acknowledge and draw out the unique and highlight what makes people special (shaped by her 30 years as a lifeskills coach). Jan is fueled by exploring what is possible and bridging ideas into tangible, relevant offerings that set the business apart in this ever-changing economy.   Erin is the innovator on the team. Her passion lies in digital and print design and marketing. And showing the behind-the-scenes on social. She can be found spending most of her time at the keyboard creating a new company website, designing the next issue of Trailblazher magazine or brand graphics for Trailblazher Co. Erin brings the synergy to the team with her team spirit and ambitious goal markers for the next growth stage of the company. Apart from her role in the company, she juggles being a work-from-home mom, and caring for 80+ chickens and ducks, some days she manages better than others. Erin thrives on possibility, on pushing the envelope and creating something that's never been done before.    Together, with their tools and programs at Trailblazher Co, they want to help women explore the parts of themselves that are gutsy and resilient… the parts of that have been shaped by life experiences... the parts of that help women to live their life on purpose.

Have you ever wished you could just ask an expert, “How the heck do I do this…in simple terms?”   That's exactly what I thought as I was planning out 2024 content for The Found Podcast: Why not give entrepreneurs and small business owners an opportunity to ask real questions in real time and get real answers that matter to them?   In this episode format called “Coaching Calls,” a small business owner/entrepreneur is given an opportunity to submit a question they would like me to answer about marketing, business growth, personal development, or anything that's on their mind!   Today's submission is from one of my former coaching clients and friend, Natalie Berning of Berning Acres, who asked, “Should I add Pinterest to my business marketing strategy?”   This is a layered question, but it's one I think we all of us should ask from time to time as we develop our marketing strategy and assess its return on investment. Benefits of Incorporating Pinterest in your Small Business' Marketing Strategy Now, my friend this is a very layered question, and as I go into with Natalie, it's not as simple as just starting an account and saying “Hey, let's Pin!”    I highly recommend that anytime you add a platform to your marketing toolkit you make sure  A: that it is aligned with your ideal audience  B: that you have the time to dedicate to the learning and the growth it's going to take to get started on the platform  C: that you develop a long-term and short-term plan for how this new platform will serve your business D: especially with Pinterest, begin with the end in mind and map out your customer's acquisition journey   That being said, there are lots of reasons a small business could benefit from the addition of Pinterest to their marketing strategy: Visual Discovery:  Pinterest is a highly visual platform where users discover ideas, products, and inspiration through images and videos. Small businesses can leverage this visual aspect to showcase their products or services in a visually appealing way, making them more discoverable to potential customers. High Intent Audience:  Pinterest users often have high purchase intent, with many actively seeking ideas and inspiration for future purchases. By creating engaging and relevant content, small businesses can connect with users who are actively looking for products or services like theirs, driving traffic and sales. Longevity of Pins:  Unlike other social media platforms where content may have a short lifespan, pins on Pinterest can have a long shelf life and continue to drive traffic and engagement over time. This means that small businesses can benefit from ongoing exposure and visibility for their content, even months or years after it's been pinned. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Benefits:  Pinterest acts as a visual search engine, allowing users to discover content based on keywords and interests. By optimizing pins with relevant keywords and descriptions, small businesses can improve their visibility in Pinterest search results and drive organic traffic to their website. Referral Traffic:  Pinterest is a powerful driver of referral traffic, with users frequently clicking through pins to visit external websites. Small businesses can use Pinterest to drive traffic to their website, blog, or online store, increasing brand exposure and potential conversions. Targeted Advertising Options:  Pinterest offers robust advertising options, including Promoted Pins and Pinterest Ads, which allow small businesses to target specific audiences based on demographics, interests, and behaviors. This targeted approach can help small businesses reach their ideal customers and drive meaningful results. Steps for Starting out on Pinterest Pinterest isn't just another social media platform—it's a powerful tool for driving traffic, increasing brand visibility, and connecting with potential customers. If you're ready to harness the potential of Pinterest for your business, here are five essential steps to get started: Create a Business Account:  The first step to launching your Pinterest marketing strategy is to create a business account. This will give you access to valuable analytics and advertising features that can help you track your progress and reach your goals. Optimize Your Profile:  Take the time to update and edit your account's bio section, profile picture, and helpful links. Use this space to showcase your brand personality, share important information about your business, and drive traffic to your website or other online properties. Create Relevant Boards:  Next, create boards that align with your content pillars and target audience interests. Use simple, SEO-friendly titles for your boards to help your content get found in Pinterest search results. Organize your boards strategically to make it easy for users to find the content they're looking for. Curate and Repurpose Content:  Don't limit yourself to sharing only your own content on Pinterest. Curate and repurpose high-quality content from other creators that is relevant to your audience and aligns with your brand. Share these pins on your boards to provide value to your followers and keep your feed fresh and engaging. Create Fresh Pins:  Finally, create your own fresh pins that direct people to your website, sales pages, and email opt-in forms. Use eye-catching visuals, compelling copy, and clear calls to action to encourage clicks and engagement. Experiment with different pin formats, designs, and messaging to see what resonates best with your audience.   By following these five steps, you'll be well on your way to launching a successful Pinterest marketing strategy that drives traffic, increases brand awareness, and helps you achieve your business goals.

There, the Berning family milks 400 cows, 3 times each day, 365 days a year. Their herd consists of mostly Holsteins (the black and white ones!) and in addition, they run about 850 acres of crop ground.    The Bernings have always loved inviting people to come check out the farm and experience what farming looks like in the 21st century. So it wasn't long before they had the idea to add education and agri-tourism to their operation.    Throughout the year, the Bernings host a variety of events, tours, and camps to bring people to the farm and learn about what it takes to make the food we see on the shelves in our local grocery stores. From their kid-friendly Farm Camps and day camps to the adults-only Night at the Farm events perfect for date night, their events sell quickly and get rave reviews from visitors in the Galena, Illinois, area.   Their hope is that you'll leave with some great knowledge about agriculture, farm animals and farm life (and a deeper appreciation for that wholesome nutritious glass of milk you enjoy each day!)     For more information about Berning Acres and to schedule your farm experience, visit https://berningacres.com/ Be a Guest on a Future Coaching Call   If you'd like to ask Molly your business or marketing question on a future episode of The Found Podcast, click the link below to enter your name and burning question:   https://forms.gle/BDjRPRWfmuFeHQZ89

As opposed to focusing on "fitting it all in", time management, and leaning in, as so many books geared at ambitious women do, this book embraces the notion that through doing less women can have - and be - more.   To join the MKM Book Club visit mkm.myflodesk.com/mkmaprilbookclub

Listener, when I was mapping out the first part of the year here at The Found Podcast and decided that February was all about belief and self-confidence, I just KNEW we had to have my friend Coach Kiah in for a guest interview.   Kiah Twisselman Burchett is a California cattle rancher turned motivational speaker on a mission to empower others to love themselves deeper, care for themselves better, and find joy in this messy, beautiful, journey of life.   Through hosting retreats, motivational speaking, her podcast Climbing with Coach Kiah, and coaching her clients, Coach Kiah helps women cultivate confidence through self-awareness, compassion, curiosity, and growth.   As she shares in the episode, Kiah wouldn't always describe herself as “confident,” but through all the peaks and valleys of her lived experience, she's learned to lean into her gifts, talents, and dreams, to write her own story.   Our time together FLEW by and I just loved where the journey took us in today's episode. Be sure to visit Coach Kiah's website for more, including details on her upcoming Ireland retreat, her Cultivating Confidence free downloadable guide, and more of her energetic and inspirational stories from her podcast.  Key Takeaways She calls herself a “California cattle ranch kid,” and throughout her life Kiah has found herself coming back time and again to the rural/ag community. Kiah says that a lot of her self-worth over the years was defined by her picture of the “ideal body.” Her journey to attain that body over nearly two decades lead to a series of yo-yo fad diets before a pivotal moment caused her to take massive action and reinvent herself and her entire life.  Kiah found success in her mental, physical, and emotional wellness when she stopped restricting herself and began celebrating, loving, and nourishing herself with what she needed: “It was more about what would make me feel really good today…and really it was about focusing on the mindset aspect first.” “I had no idea where my life would be now, five years ago. And I'm not naive enough to say that I know what the next five years of my life will look like. I don't know, but I'm along for the ride!” “The truth is that I really do believe that every single one of us are the main characters in our own lives, but whether or not we feel that way is another story.” “All of us are looking for this prescriptive list…we want someone to tell us what to do…But the question isn't “what do I do?” the question is “how do I think?” and the thinking and the feeling is the hardest part of this journey but it's the most important piece.” It's the thinking and the feeling, not the doing, that will ultimately propel us to personal and professional success and belief in ourselves. “We are not even aware of the stories we are constantly ruminating on in the back of our minds.” Coach Kiah really believes that journaling and getting those thoughts out on paper is a helpful tool for reflection, self-awareness, and growth. Where is Coach Kiah climbing in 2024? Listen to the full episode to find out! Climb with Kiah Check out all that Coach Kiah has to offer on her website, especially her podcast library and her Cultivating Confidence guide, or connect with her over on IG for all the updates in her upcoming adventures.

Have you ever held yourself back from something because you just didn't think you were “ready yet?”   Held yourself back from a promotion? Knocked your pricing down a little bit because you were worried about what other people think? Waited to make a purchase? Bit your tongue instead of spoke your true feelings aloud? Held off until “Monday,” “next week,” or “next month” to begin a new habit?   Ladies, we often are our own worst enemies in holding ourselves back due to imposter syndrome. We feel like we don't have enough education, experience, or preparation, for the next step we're considering and therefore we don't make a move…at all.   Imposter syndrome isn't a new concept, and it affects a majority of women in their personal and professional lives. It keeps us small, it has us feeling stuck, and it's time to say, “that's enough of that shit.”   The antidote to imposter syndrome? Cultivating our belief in ourselves as individuals, moms, wives, aunties, friends, teammates, and business owners.   Self-belief doesn't just come from the ground, though. It involves taking messy action so we learn to trust ourselves. Trusting ourselves over time so that we become confident in our abilities, and turning that confidence into an innate belief of who we are and what we are capable of.    In today's episode of The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, I share some surprising facts about imposter syndrome, actions to take as we begin to flex our trust and confidence muscles, and ultimately how to believe that we have what it takes to be our best selves in 2024.   Actions Steps for Stepping into Trust, Confidence, and Belief in Yourself While I wish I could take credit for the following action steps, they are attributed to my friends at The Restoration Project and the article The 4 P's of Imposter Syndrome and How They Impact Women by Lis Cashin.   Journal on the following questions: What do I like about myself? What do I know about myself? What seems to come more naturally to me than to others? What positive feedback am I consistently given that rings true to me? Where do I feel most confident in my ability to contribute? What am I best at? What drains my energy? What is difficult for me? What are my weaknesses? Network with people who you identify with the future you and where you're growing into. Find membership groups, peer groups, mentors, community groups, who you can relate with and learn from. Embrace imperfection! Give yourself permission to act when you only feel about 60% ready (don't wait to feel 100% there!) and the grace to know that you WILL make mistakes, and you WILL learn from them to make improvements and get better. Set realistic goals! Hot take: instead of a crazy huge, ambitious, hard to reach goal, knock it down a peg so it is attainable! Then you can celebrate your success, build momentum, and use it to motivate yourself going forward.   Helpful Links: The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck by Mark Manson You are a Badass by Jen Sincero Cultivating Confidence download by Coach Kiah Podcast: Self-Confidence is Bullshit by Coach Kiah Article: Imposter Syndrome Predominantly Affects Women - Here's How we can Overcome It by Cheri Beranek Article: The 4 P's of Imposter Syndrome and How They Impact Women by Lis Cashin Enhancing Our Confidence by Lindsay Leahy   Get in the MKM Book Club In February, MKM is hosting our second month of the MKM Book Club for entrepreneurs and small business owners who desire community and personal/professional development each month. Our first selection is The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson.   Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.   To join the MKM Book Club visit mkm.myflodesk.com/mkmfebruarybookclub

Have you ever wished you could just ask an expert, “how the heck do I do this…in simple terms?”  That's exactly what I thought as I was planning out 2024 content for The Found Podcast. Why not give entrepreneurs and small business owners an opportunity to ask real questions in real time and get real answers that matter to them?   In this new format called “Coaching Calls,” small business owners and entrepreneurs are given an opportunity to submit one question they would like to ask me about marketing, business growth, personal development, or anything that we touch on here at The Found Podcast.   When I saw the first submission come in from this friend of the pod, I was so excited! And I knew we had to have her on, not just because she's amazing and her business is so impressive, but also because her question is so relatable and probably on your mind too:    “Molly should I add TikTok in 2024 to my marketing tool kit?”    Why to Add TikTok in ‘24 Now, my friend this is a very layered question, and as I go into with Alix, it's not as simple as just starting an account and saying “Hey, follow me now!”    I highly recommend that anytime you add a platform to your marketing toolkit you make sure  A: that it is aligned with your ideal audience  B: that you have the time to dedicate to the learning and the growth it's going to take to get started on the platform  C: that you develop a long-term and short-term plan for how this new platform will serve your business   In 2024, I do think that TikTok offers a great opportunity for business owners who are product based and are direct to consumer, but I do think there are a few other items to consider before diving into TikTok for business.    For example you'll hear me talk with Alix about developing a serial approach to your TikTok videos so there are multiple videos produced in a similar style. You'll also hear me advising Alex on growth strategies and understanding which accounts are already connecting with her ideal client and how she can use some of those accounts to inspire her creativity or guide her content as she grows for her business.   If you are asking yourself: “Should I add TikTok to my business marketing?” go ahead and tune into this coaching call, my friend.   It's a 20 minute conversation that will really help you as you consider adding a platform to your marketing repertoire in the new year.   A little more about our guest today… Alix and I got to know each other in 2021 when she enrolled in the first iteration of MKM Social School, and over the past few years I've gotten to know her and her business a little better.   Alix and her husband live in McCook, Nebraska, where together they raise three boys and own and operate Sehnert's Bakery & Bieroc Cafe, a 500-year-old business that originated in Germany.    You can here more of her business' evolution and her founder story in Episode 77 of The Found Podcast (which was called Small-Minded when we originally recorded this interview in 2022).

Tis the damn season: the season for writing out our big goals for the new year.   Many of us have grown up and built our businesses on the idea that you need to draft big, hairy, scary goals and start tackling them, like yesterday with new methods, strategies, and a whole new you when January 1 rolls around.   But the truth is that in reaching goals or pursuing change at any level, success doesn't lie in the audaciousness of the goal itself, but in the habits you put in place to help you reach your goals over time.   As James Clear says, “You have to standardize before you optimize.” The more you virtualize the beginning of a process and the more you can repeat it, the more you can rewire your brain and make it second nature. Over time, this results in the creation of a habit and allows your body to take over in pursuit of your new goal.   In today's episode of The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, we discuss the procuss of building new habits, how to get them to stick, and helpful tools to help you create new habits in the new year.   Establishing a New Habit While I wish I could take credit for the following action steps, they are attributed to the one and only James Clear in his article How to Build a New Habit: This is Your Strategy Guide.   Start with an incredibly small habit. Make it so tiny and easy you can't say no. Increase your habit in very small ways. Progressively add resistance, time, and intensity so your willpower and motivation have time to catch up. Break habits into chunks. Don't burn yourself out, that's a one-way ticket to feeling unable to continue. Give yourself smaller milestones that add up to big wins. Get back on track quickly. Aim for consistency over perfection, and never miss twice. Pick a sustainable pace and give yourself time. Track your progress so you can see your results and build confidence. BONUS: (this one is from Molly) put an accountability practice in place.   Helpful Links: How to Build a New Habit: This is Your Strategy Guide article by James Clear To Create a Healthy Habit, Find an Accountability Buddy article by Tara Parker-Pope Atomic Habits by James Clear Badass Habits by Jen Sincero The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Steven R. Covey High Performance Habits by Brendan Burchard You Do You 82 Habit Challenge with Emily Reuschel   Get in the MKM Book Club In January, MKM is launching a free resource for entrepreneurs and small business owners who desire community and personal/professional development each month with our MKM Book Club. Our first selection is Badass Habits by Jen Sincero.   Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again--our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness, and our unconscious beliefs and fears. Badass Habits features Jen's trademark hilarious voice and offers a much-needed fresh take on the conventional wisdom and science that shape the optimism (or pessimism?) around the age-old topic of habits. The book includes enlightening interviews with people who've successfully strengthened their discipline backbones, new perspective on how to train our brains to become our best selves, and offers a simple, 21 day, step-by-step guide for ditching habits that don't serve us and developing the habits we deem most important. Habits shouldn't be impossible to reset--and with healthy boundaries, knowledge of--and permission to go after--our desires, and an easy to implement plan of action, we can make any new goal a joyful habit.   To join the MKM Book Club visit mkm.myflodesk.com/bookclub

This is an episode of the Creativity Found podcast, featuring host Anna Stoecklein's interview. In it, she discusses her journey from nurse to podcaster, how she came up with the idea and created The Story of Woman, and what's next for the podcast! Creativity Found Original episode with transcript The Creative Brain is a catalyst for change. For many years Anna Stoecklein believed that creativity was limited to traditional forms of art, such as painting or drawing. However, after watching the Netflix documentary The Creative Brain, she realized that creativity is everywhere, and that everyone is creative in their own way. This realization was a game-changer for Anna, as it allowed her to see her own creativity and potential. Anna had a creative childhood, but that took a back seat during her teenage years and early adulthood. Anna studied nursing, and after three years of working in a clinical setting, she realized it wasn't for her. She couldn't see herself climbing the management ladder or going back to school to become a nurse practitioner. Other career roles followed, along with a move from the US to the UK. The lessons Anna had learnt from that documentary percolated, until a few years later she was able to put them to good use as she turned the idea for The Story of Woman podcast into a fully-fledged show. In this episode Anna and I discuss how she was able to challenge and reframe her self-perception as a "non-creative" person, as well as the amazing experiences she's had with her podcast guests, including conversations with Hillary Clinton and Cherie Blair. — Become a Patron for access to bonus content and to support the podcast, or buy me a (metaphorical) coffee Follow us: Instagram | Twitter | Facebook | Tik Tok | Youtube | LinkedIn Subscribe to our newsletter for a weekly dose of all things WOMAN We need more women's stories in the world!

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastors Jason Wieland and Brandon Bathauer talk about a common question for Christians: what does it mean that I am simultaneously a sinner and a saint? The conversation starts by looking at what the Bible says about us as sinner, then what the Bible talks about us as saints. It addresses the confusion of what it means to hold these two in tension and talks about the difficult emotional toll that this can have on people. Many people find themselves stuck in cycles of shame, guilt, or doubt when wrestling with their sin vs. their supposed saved nature. Jason and Brandon talk about the powerful reality of sanctification, what it means to live in a new identity, and provide some tools and resources for anybody who is struggling to understand and live out this reality of being both a sinner and a saint. Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.
