Getting removed from Mediavine, leaning into social media as a traffic driver, and rebuilding to 85,000 monthly sessions with Yasmin Henley from By the Forkful. ----- Welcome to episode 460 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Yasmin Henley from By the Forkful. How Yasmin Henley Recommitted to Her Blog and Grew to 85,000 Monthly Sessions Yasmin started By the Forkful (her second blog) in 2019 and quickly qualified for Mediavine. But, as often happens, life got in the way when she had her daughter and went back to work full-time. After taking a step back and being removed from Mediavine, Yasmin has worked hard to bring her site back to life. In the last year she has built the traffic on her site back up to 85,000 monthly sessions and is once again part of an ad network! In this interview she shares more about her process for growing site traffic, the role of social media in driving traffic to her site, and how she balances her full-time job, family, and blog. We loved this interview with Yasmin — she's an open book and her honesty is so refreshing and helpful for anyone building a business! In this episode, you'll learn: How she initially qualified for Mediavine after starting her blog in 2019. Why she neglected her site for 1–2 years (hint: sometimes life gets in the way) and was removed from Mediavine. How a viral TikTok video inspired her to reinvest in her blog. How she built the traffic back up on her site (to 85,000 sessions last month!). How she has grown her social media followings at the same time. How she balances her blog with her full-time job and family. Her current strategy on Facebook (which is a major traffic driver for her). Why updating older content is one of the most valuable things she does for her business. What advice she would give to her past self when she was removed from her ad network.

Tonight's special guest is Michele Johnson from Bartow, Florida, a returning NAASCA family member who says, "It's been several years and much has changed." Michele was sexually abused by multiple men and women between the ages of 5 and 15. Later, at 16, she began to be sexually trafficked. Growing up her home was filled with addictions, violence, mental abuse and sexual abuse. As an adult, she reports, "I was able to keep my trauma in check until I was stranded in Hurricane Harvey in 2017." This event triggered memories and flashbacks of all the trauma and abuses. "I had to seek help after realizing that my suicidal thoughts were overtaking my life. I started therapy two months after the hurricane and continue today with two trauma therapists." She tells her story to bring hope to other trauma survivors and to let them know they are not alone. "I have been speaking, writing, and advocating since 2018. I blog my healing journey (be sure to check out the BLOG: 'Being MJ Everyday') and hope to educate therapists, law enforcement, teachers and other professionals about the devastating effects of trauma and the process and experiences of healing." Her BLOG is honest. "It's only been the last two years that I have begun to feel love and accepted in my relationships. I put away some older, not so healthy relationships and started to develop new ones. I have begun to place more value on myself than what others think of me." She continues, "I won't lie. I still struggle with whether or not I am good enough. I struggle with the fear that my friends will leave or abandon me. But I have begun to accept that what happened to me has given me purpose."

How can Heart Mom use therapeutic techniques to overcome PTSD and CTSD? What is CTSD anyway? What is mindfulness and how can it help someone suffering from traumatic events?Djinni Yancey is the mother of 3 young adult children. Lauren is 23, Brianna is 21, and Isaac is 19. Isaac is a Heart Warrior who was born with a single ventricle heart. In addition to his congenital heart defect, he has other medical issues. Djinni is a US Navy veteran, a recent college graduate (she graduated in Dec. 2020), and she works full-time in PR for the Federal Government. Officially diagnosed with PTSD (or post-traumatic stress disorder) in 2018 after several panic attacks and mental breakdowns. After several months of therapy, Djinni's therapist suggested she attend a mindfulness group. Fearful of the group at first, it took a lot of encouragement and motivation for her to go, but she has learned that mindfulness is really helpful.Today Djinni and I will be discussing Djinni's history as a Heart Mom, what PTSD and CTSD are, what mindfulness is, and how mindfulness might help other Heart Moms or Heart Parents.Djinni's helpful links:Her Blog: laughingwarrior.blogspot.com Her LinkedIn account: linkedin.com/in/djinni-yancey-a4855b69 To contact Djinni via email: ceohatsfromheaven@gmail.comDjinni's mindfulness podcastPlease visit our Social Media and Podcast pages:Apple Podcasts: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/heart-to-heart-with-anna/id1132261435?mt=2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HearttoHeartwithAnna/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hearttoheartwithanna/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnnaJaworskiWebsite: https://www.hug-podcastnetwork.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGPKwIU5M_YOxvtWepFR5ZwMusic thanks to the Baby Blue Sound Collective - https://music.apple.com/us/album/home-tonight-forever/1201349904Support the show
Hello my friends in Oneness, and thank you for tuning in.I am really excited about this episode. Let me tell you why. Every now and then I come across a unique soul sharing a really unique message. And this is the perfect example.In this case, the message is JOY. And the soul sharing this message is Laura Wakefield.A few months back I started noticing posts on social media under the moniker 'Joyfulicity'. Obviously, I was attracted to what was being implied, so I started following. What I found was more than just inspiring words and images, but an honest sense of 'caring' from the author.Someone who fully believes that we all have the innate capabilities to live a JOYFUL life, and if there are some who do not recognize that fact, they always have the opportunity to change their lives and to CHOOSE JOY!Let me tell you a little about her:Laura Wakefield is a mother of 9 living in the suburbs of Nashville, TN. She's a realtor, life coach, writer, and soon-to-be podcaster whose focus is to motivate others to seek greater peace and joy in daily living. She believes that Joyfulicity - her word for the art of living happy - is a concept deeply needed and craved in this troubled world. She aims to be a voice of encouragement and hope to those who are struggling or feeling stuck to help them find a pathway back to joy.

This episode, our notes will be brief, in order to honor both host's bodies. Over the Thanksgiving Weekend, both Maggie and Danielle lost a Grandparent. In order to give ourselves space and then practice a bit what we talk about, the notes for this episode will be brief."Rachel is a foster, adoptive and bio mom with three kids in her home, a foster son in her heart and five babies in heaven after a five-year battle with secondary infertility and unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss. She is the author of "Unexpecting: Real Talk on Pregnancy Loss" by Bethany House Publishers, which released August of 2021. She is also the blogger behind The Lewis Note and a contributor to Still Standing Magazine, Pregnancy After Loss Support and Filter-Free Parents. Rachel and her family have been featured by the Today Show, Babble, For Every Mom, and more. She is an avid Goldendoodle fan (specifically, an avid fan of HER Goldendoodle), gets way-too excited anytime Trader Joe's comes out with a new gluten-free dessert, and thinks that mommying is the hardest, but one of the best, things she's done. When she's not writing, you can find her drinking coffee, wishing she were drinking coffee, or planning her next trip to Starbucks."Her Blog: thelewisnote.comHer Book: unexpectingbook.comSocial Media: @rachel.thelewisnote InstagramFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/rachel.e.lewis.1 Unexpecting—Real Talk on Pregnancy Lossby Rachel LewisEven though pregnancy and infant loss are common, society shrouds them in secrecy and even shame—starving grieving women and their partners of much-needed support. Women may leave the hospital feeling like strangers in their own bodies, facing postpartum life without a baby in their arms. And the well-intentioned but hurtful comments from loved ones may make them feel lonelier than ever.Rachel Lewis, founder of the Brave Mamas online support group, is the friend bereaved mothers never hoped to need—giving them the practical guide she wished for after each of her five losses. With raw transparency and no pat answers, Rachel helps readers navigate how theloss of a child can affect body, heart, mind, and soul. Unexpecting offers a safe place to ask:• Am I still a parent if my baby died?• I know it's not my fault—so why can't I shake the feeling that it is?• How will I ever be able to talk about this with my friends and family?• My partner isn't grieving like I am—does that mean he's over it?• What do I do now? Receiving practical tips on coping with their new normal, bereaved readers will feel heard,understood, and validated through Rachel's story and the many interspersed messages from hercommunity of bereaved parents. When life after loss doesn't make sense . . . this book will.“Rachel has an authenticity that few are able to convey with such compassion.She is relatable because she's been there. She's struggled with the same faithquestions and platitudes and has done the work to find where her strength andjoy truly come from. She doesn't shy away from hard things that weall-too-often like to avoid or wrap with bows to cover up the heartache,and she shares her heart in the most positive and uplifting way.”—Lori Ennis, MS Ed, editor, Still Standing Magazine ABOUT THE AUTHORRachel Lewis is the founder of Brave Mamas, an online community offering support tothousands of bereaved moms.

Based in Miami, Florida, Sally is originally from Israel where tahini is the “peanut butter” of Israel.

The Tahini Goddess has grown rapidly during the pandemic year as a result of positive reviews, a varied line of nutritious and delicious of tahini and sugar free halvah and most important, superior customer service and transparency during a pandemic. Her tahini is the only one on the market MADE in Israel, and no one currently offers the wide flavor offering and education that she does. In This Episode We Discuss: How she went from never cooking to becoming a recipe creator How she navigates life with a child who's a picky eater What are the biggest triggers for picky eaters The health benefits of Tahini Are all sesame seeds created equal?

Thorn Mooney is among the most fascinating, intelligent Wiccans I've come across on the internet. I discovered her via her YouTube channel, where she explores what it's like to actually live in both the ritualistic world of a practicing Wiccan and the very modern world of a content creator with a day job. While many shy away from exploring this strange space, Thorn instead dives headlong into the weirdness offering videos with titles like, “I'm Not a Professional Witch and That's Fine with Me,” “Don't Put Other Witches on Pedestals,” and “Experiences Being a Pagan Content Creator,” among many others. We spoke a few months back and, after a lot of technical drama that's not thankfully resolved, by the way, be very careful which podcast hosting provider you choose, I'm thrilled to release our conversation as it ranks, not just among the best on this show, but also as one of the more grounded esoteric conversations I've ever had.

Full Transcript Hilda Dunford is a mom with 3 children and with the distance learning being the virtual reality that it is, Hilda is fining more and more time to be with her children, learning, caring and growing together. I met Hilda through her @OurBlindSide Instagram account. Her Blog-like content gave me a peek into the life of Hilda, her family and her son who happens to be Blind/Low Vision. With the changes that the Pandemic has brought to all of us, Hilda never imagined that she would be teaching and managing her children's at-home learning and has found the upside to the way life is today. From being her son’s first advocate to witnessing him advocating for himself, the journey continues as Hilda is learning everyday of what it means to be a parent of a child who happens to be blind. Hilda gives us some great advice for Parents and Teachers of the Blind and Visually Impaired. Her words and perspective are worth listening to over and over, and her Instagram updates are another page turn every post.

When she wrote an editorial about her postpartum depression and used humour to discuss it she was attacked online for being a terrible mother.

This week’s guest on Happiness through Hardship - The Podcast is previvor, Abby Lawson. She’s the founder of Just a Girl & Her Blog and an organization and design expert, who with her husband runs an entrepreneurial venture. She’s full of advice for anyone wanting to organize their home, design a new space and even help show others how blogging can be a family run business. While I found her and fell in love with her organization of Lego space, she’s known for offering courses and free printables on a variety of topics. Though we could talk for hours about creating a thriving home, on today's episode Abby shares her story as a BRCA1 previvor. A Previvor is someone who has taken action to eliminate risks of disease, often having a predisposition to cancer. This group includes people who carry a hereditary mutation, a family history of cancer, or some other predisposing factor. Abby tells us about the decisions she made knowing she was a carrier of BRCA1. BRCA1 is a genetic mutation and those who carry it have a much higher risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer compared with someone who doesn't have the mutation. Abby’s story about being a BRCA1 previvor is informative and enlightening. She’s incredibly sweet and feels like a new friend...so please listen to this episode and if you like rate, review and subscribe.

Travel Gluten Free Podcast Episode 85 Dog Friendly Utah Hiking Trails Welcome to Spring Into Health! A series podcasts dedicated to health, healing and auto-immune disease. Utah Hiking Trails to Beat COVID-19 Boredom While working at an insurance agency, Alicia from Girl On a Hike started looking for information on hiking trails in Utah. An avid hiker, her friends, would ask her about the hikes she went on when we're good times to go, and which trails she liked the best. A friend suggested she start a blog on hiking trails in Utah. After looking around the internet for hiking trail information, Alicia couldn't find the detailed information she was looking for: what to expect on the trail, step by step information with pictures, and which trails were dog friendly. She wanted to make her blog stand out from other blogs, apps, and information on Utah trails, "I wanted to put stuff in there that nobody else had," so she started her own blog Girl On a Hike. Building Her Blog Girl On a Hike Knowing nothing about coding and web design, a friend directed her toward Blogger. Alicia wasn't sure if she wanted to stick with her blog, "I liked to write, but I've never written trail guides. I didn't know if this was for me if this was worth the time and money I had to put into this." She started on this platform, but ultimately her need for her own site sparked an interest to change her career to coding and web design. Choosing a Trail for Her Blog Alicia takes notes in her notes section, and her "to-do hiking list gets longer every year." She has many trails she would like to hike, but can't get to all of them by December. "Even though I feel like I've explored a lot of Utah, I feel there are so many trails I haven't explored." Basing Her Vacation Around Hiking "I travel to explore and find new areas," she says of her vacation plans. She isn't the stay by the pool and sips a drink kind of gal. Alicia plans her entire trip around backpacking and hiking trails. She also takes her dog Charlie, who recently turned eight, along with her on all her hikes and adventures. Listen in to find out where Alicia likes to take her dog the most, her favorite spots in southern Utah, and where you can and can't take your dogs in State Parks in Utah. Learn the guidelines for off-leash parks, Alicia’s favorite off-leash parks and why you should have excellent recall with your dog. Guest Bio Alicia Baker is the owner of "Girl on a Hike," a blog that follows Alicia and her hiking companion, Charlie, a Golden Lab, on their outdoor adventures. She has lived in Utah for since 2013 and loves exploring everything from the High Uintas to the San Rafael Swell and desert. Each year, she and Charlie hike and backpack an average of 700 miles. "Girl on a Hike" has been awarded as one of the Top 100 Outdoor & Hiking Blogs from 2016 through 2019. She is also the author of "Salt Lake City's Best 52 Hikes", available only on Amazon.

Quick show notes Our Guest: Gift Egwuenu What she'd like for you to see: Her Blog and her YouTube Channel Her JAMstack Jams: Gridsome and Netlify Her musical Jam: Gift's curated YouTube Playlist Other Technologies mentioned Hugo NuxtJS GatsbyJS Transcript Bryan Robinson 0:03 Welcome to another episode of that's my JAMstack the podcast where we highlight amazing people in the community and ask the pressing question, what's your jam in the JAMstack? This week's episode, we have one of the Co-organizers of ConcatenateConf, and JAMstack Lagos, the wonderful Gift Egwuenu. Welcome to the That's My JAMstack podcast. Thanks for being on the show today. Gift Egwuenu 0:27 Thanks for having me, Bryan. Thanks for having me. Bryan Robinson 0:30 No problem. So I've been following you on Twitter for a little while. But I want you to go ahead and introduce yourself to the audience. Tell us who you are, what you do for work, what you do for fun, that kind of thing. Gift Egwuenu 0:40 Yeah, sure. So my name is Gift Egwuenu. I'm a software engineer, and I work for a company called Andella and is based in Lagos, Nigeria. And I'm also a technical writer. I own my own blog where I write about technical topics, mainly focused on front end JavaScript, as well as JAMstack and accessibility. I also run several communities here in Lagos, one of which is the JAMstack meetup in Lagos, as well as a conference called Concatenate. I helped organize that. And for fun, I love photography. So I take pictures, majity street photography, but yeah, that's pretty much everything. Bryan Robinson 1:26 Very, very cool. So so you're pretty busy, especially with Concatenate just ending a few weeks ago, right? Gift Egwuenu 1:32 Yeah. You know about contacting? Cool. Yeah, it was amazing. It was amazing. Bryan Robinson 1:39 Yeah, this is the second year that y'all ran Concatenate?Unknown Speaker 1:42 Yeah. So we had our first edition last year, and this second edition was really amazing. Because last year was majority just a remote conference. For this year, we're able to bring down some speakers as well as have other speakers remotely. So yeah. It was fun. Bryan Robinson 2:01 Very cool. So so obviously the JAMstack and static sites are what we're going to talk about today, what would kind of your entry point into the idea of the JAMstack or the idea of static sites? Gift Egwuenu 2:11 So I first time I actually heard about jam stack was from my Twitter timeline. So this was last year 2018. In last year, I was scrolling through Twitter and I saw the team jump stock and I was kind of confused at first actually wanted to know what this because you know, there are so many stocks, the mean stock, the lumps that I just wanted to know what it actually means. And and, yeah, so I just had to do like a Google search about it. And it was quite interesting. Gift Egwuenu 2:42 At the same time, I just started blogging. So I started my blog, the same time and I was actually scouting for topics to learn more about and also write about, and this was really interesting. So I did my research. Thanks to the jamstack.org site. was really helpful. And then I stayed doing a lot of research about it. And I wrote my first blog posts on the JAMstack. That was my entry points. Bryan Robinson 3:11 Very cool. And I saw I saw on your blog, you've got like a post about Nuxt, you've got post Gridsome you've got post about Hugo, what's kind of your favorite technology or your favorite piece of the JAMstack? Gift Egwuenu 3:22 Okay, that's, that's a difficult question. Cuz Actually, yeah, I've actually played with a couple of them. But right now I would say my favorite is Gridsome. Yeah. I initially worked with Hugo. This was while, I; This was I actually started working with Hugo without knowing about the JAMstack at first, because I had like, contracts gig where I had to build a custom Hugo thing, but then I didn't know have any idea about the JAMstack but I knew what Static Sites were. Didn't know there was something called the JAMstack. So I worked with Hugo. My first blog was actually a Hugo site because then I was pretty much invested in Hugo. So I had to like get my blog running on Hugo. I did I did that for pretty much one year before I started learning more about Nuxt and at the time, Gatsby was very, very popular even though I am also a React developer when I found out there was also a similar a similar static site generator like Gatsby and it was with some he was quite new at the time that I started using it. So I'd say it's just checked the docs, and it was really interesting. And then I decided at that point, I just say it's port my Hugo blog to Gridsome And ever since then, I've been loving it. Bryan Robinson 4:49 I only know a very little bit about Gridsome. And that's kind of it's on that. It's the Static site generator for Vue that Gatsby is for react? Gift Egwuenu 4:58 Yes is pretty similar to Gatsby because he has the same GraphQL integration that Gatsby has. So yeah, they are pretty similar but they just have different programming languages. React and Vue. Yeah. Bryan Robinson 5:15 And I assume you kind of started making that transition from Hugo over to over to Gridsome because you were working in JavaScript more than and what Hugo's in actual Go. Gift Egwuenu 5:25 Yeah, exactly. So I actually wrote I wrote a blog post on why I made the transition. Because Yeah, I was working with Hugo, I To be honest, I haven't really done anything with Go. So I was basically just doing things out of my own knowledge. I didn't really know so much about Go programming and it was very difficult for me to customize my blog at that point. So when I found out that Okay, there is Gridsome and actually love working with Vue. This is something that I can customize on my own without having to like Seek for extra help. So I just decided to make that transition. Bryan Robinson 6:05 Yeah. So so obviously that's that's you and your kind of personal and your blog site and all that. Are you using JAMstack philosophies professionally, at all Gift Egwuenu 6:14 So that's the thing. At my job. I really don't use the JAMstack. I only use it for Yeah, my personal projects on my blog. Bryan Robinson 6:25 Okay, cool. And do you find that as you experiment with these technologies, are you able to bring any kind of peace that thought process back over to kind of your non jam stack job? Gift Egwuenu 6:36 Yeah, so currently we are I'm working. I'm working with React at my job. But a couple of a couple of teams in my company, actually using Gatsby so which is great. My team currently only uses React. So yeah, this is something I can Maybe talk to them about if they're interested in making the switch. Well, yeah, that's though that's going to be long shots but yeah. Bryan Robinson 7:07 So is Gridsome what you would consider your jam the JAMstack? Kind of your favorite technology. Are there any other technologies that you're really passionate about right now? Gift Egwuenu 7:16 Yeah. Gridsome is one of them. I'm really, I'm really happy about scripts on my last season. It's then another technology that I love using is Netlify. Yeah, because Netlify was like the my entry into the JAMstack. I got to know about the JAMstack through Netlify, and pretty much works with a couple of Netlify products. I use Netlify for almost all my deployments, which is great. Yeah, so I love those two technologies a lot. Bryan Robinson 7:52 So you've been working in kind of the JAMstack for a couple years now. What's going to keep you there? What is it about the JAMstack That is is hopefully going to be the big future of the web? Gift Egwuenu 8:04 So for me basically JAMstack, I feel like JAMstack is still evolving because a lot of people are still trying to get acquainted with the whole knowledge about the JAMstack. I actually started working with JAMstack last year and so far it's been amazing and I feel like for the future we don't we can't we can't actually tell how much you can do with the JAMstack right now. Gift Egwuenu 8:32 You can do a lot. People actually just think JAMstack is all static sites is just for needing a basic web or a basic websites for know you can actually extend the the things you can do with JAMstack even now that you have like things like serverless, which I'm actually at this point I'm trying to learn more about the serverless architecture. So yeah, you can pretty much extend the use cases for JAMstack in whatever you're working with. Bryan Robinson 9:06 Yeah, definitely. And so with the kind of the serverless stuff that you're starting to explore, do you have a background in back end development or are you primarily front end? Gift Egwuenu 9:15 Yeah. I have a background in back-end. In my job I also do back-end development with NodeJS. Bryan Robinson 9:23 Okay. Very cool. So, so yeah, adapting that to serverless should be should be pretty simple and pretty fun. Gift Egwuenu 9:28 Yeah, it is. Like yesterday, I was going through, I think his name is Jason. So he had like a workshop on Front-end Masters yesterday and I followed through. And he also one of the, all of the amazing things about his workshop was when he was trying to teach us about how to get started with serverless functions. And it was very easy. It was it was very slick, like, I did not think it will be that easy. Yeah, just Amazing. Bryan Robinson 10:02 So, what, uh, what is your actual like musical jam right now? Where are you listening to what fuels your day? What's your favorite music or artist or song? Gift Egwuenu 10:12 Every day I have a playlist rights of Nigerian music, which I think I should share. Cuz it has pretty much everything that I love from R&B to Afro beats, mostly nigerian music. So yeah, it's a playlist on YouTube that I just developed for myself. And I use it mostly when I'm working. Bryan Robinson 10:38 Awesome. Yeah, definitely share that link with me. And we'll and we'll share it out because that sounds really amazing. Especially, especially like R&B and, and that sort of thing. I've always enjoyed that. Gift Egwuenu 10:48 Cool, I will share that. Bryan Robinson 10:51 So last, but certainly not least, is there something that you would like to promote that you're doing something you kind of want to get out there and share with the world? Gift Egwuenu 10:59 Yes, sure. I would like to talk about my blog. I know I've said a lot about it already. So I have a blog. It's giftegwuenu.com.

Remember that goal I set in 2018 to open our home every single week? Well, it was hard and scary at first, but the more we did it, the more it's become second nature to use! Last week alone, we opened up our home all week to host three college girls who are volunteering at Pine Cove Camp in the City, we hosted the Girls' Bible Study for the teen girls at church (I think maybe 20 girls came?), we had multiple teens over, we had two couples over for dinner, and we had a family over for dinner. And I loved it! In this week's episode, Jesse and I open the show by talking more about the lessons we've learned on hospitality and how it has changed our lives to re-define what true hospitality is. (Want to hear more encouragement for practicing hospitality, even if it scares you? Be sure to check out the episode devoted to this topic with Jen Schmidt, author of Just Open the Door. We also dive into the topic of Habit Trackers and how both of us are using them this summer -- me for a specific goal and Jesse to help the kids stay on track and be more productive. I share how I've been making huge progress toward a goal with just a simple change in my perspective and by putting some accountability in place. And Jesse shares how this printable habit lists he put together for the kids have made a big difference in encouraging the kids to work hard, play hard, and spend less time on electronics! Instead of an interview, Jesse and I answer a follower's questions on what it's really like to work together as a married couple. We discuss decision making, how we handle conflict and disagreement, who decides how the money is spent, how we make decisions on what risks to take, and how we balance being a spender and a saver who are also married and in business together. Whether you are a couple who works together or you are just curious to hear more of the behind-the-scenes of our business operations or you just want to know how we've stayed friends and business partners who are also married, you won't want to miss this episode! In This Episode: [00:51] - So many people have been in and out of our house lately that we joke that we're past the "Just Open the Door" stage and have moved onto "Just Leave the Door Open" stage! [05:46] - In addition to sharing important lessons we've learned from our commitment to open up our home every week, we also chat about how we encourage the kids to practice hospitality when inviting their friends over. [07:01] - Have you ever used a habit tracker? I just started using one to better prioritize my time and it’s working! (so far…) You can check it out here, I snagged it from Abby Lawson. [13:30] - Jesse has been using a habit tracker with the kids to keep them busy and engaged! They are working toward a big “end of summer” surprise! [16:26] - Over the next few weeks, Jesse and I will be tackling some of the most-asked questions and topics you all have submitted as podcast episode suggestions. [17:06] - This week, we're having a very honest conversation about what it's like to be married and business partners -- and how we make it work all while staying best friends. [19:32] - How do we make big business decisions -- does one person have more say than another? We share more on our roles and how they play out. [24:09] - What if we don't agree? We chat about what we do when we don't agree and agreeing often involves waiting or compromising. [28:12] - One of us is a spender and the other is a saver (can you guess who is who?) How does this work in our business?

Episode 52 features newly minted Author, Rita Serra! Had an incredible conversation with Rita that takes us all over the world and explores her journey traveling and writing her book of poetry.I am always fascinated by people who can just go out on their own and travel to exotic and interesting places without thinking twice about it and Rita is certainly one of those people. Her stories about traveling to Europe and southeast Asia are incredible and excited for everyone to listen through this episode and get to know Rita a little more.Find Rita Online:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ritaontherocks/Her Blog: https://thatblondevagabond.com/Her Book: https://www.amazon.com/Diary-Blonde-Vagabond-Rita-Serra/dp/1095991744/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_4?keywords=diary+of+a+blonde+vagabond&qid=1556710110&s=gateway&sr=8-4-fkmrnullAbout Rita:Heyyo! I’m Rita, a funky, free-spirited, often forget… Full of life, writer. This blog focuses on my escapades as a solo, female, budget traveler who lives an alternative lifestyle constantly in transit.When I first set out into the world, I had a simple eight month trip split between Europe and Asia in mind. After about 48 hours of being in Asia I knew normalcy was forever adversary and I was destined to be a renegade revolving on the backside of reality. I decided perma-vagabond was the life for me.If you DREAM of traveling the world but don’t think you have what it takes, think again! You don’t have to be an epic hero to travel the globe. I’m much closer to being Clark Griswold than Odysseus. Don’t believe me? Once I managed to walk 40 minutes down the street before realizing my backpack was unzipped, and when I finally did I no longer owned a raincoat. Later that same day, I left my Firkenstocks ($5 “Birkenstocks”) behind in a different city. This brought my lost ‘n wandering soul count to five pairs of sandals in five months. Yeah…Now that I’ve put my (probably bare) foot in my mouth, I hope I conveyed: if I can do this, anybody can.Despite never ceasing to put the blonde in that blonde vagabond, I’ve been surviving and thriving alone, and on the road for over two years. I am chock-full of travel tips and have self-deprecating stories galore. That’s right, the laughs on me and I won’t even charge you my two cents… Oh I should probably mention, I like to pepper in puns to spice things up. So call me Hootie, because if you hold my hand, I’ll take you to the promise land.........For more episodes of the Just Get Started Podcast visit https://shows.pippa.io/justgetstarted or Follow the Just Get Started Podcast on Instagram at @justgetstartedpodcast or Facebook https://www.facebook.com/justgetstartedpodcastTo learn more about the host, Brian Ondrako, check out https://www.brianondrako.com or find Brian on Instagram at @brianondrako See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

'Mummy bloggers' are taking the world by storm. It's been inescapable over the last few years. Not surprising really. Blogging's made for mums since it can be done around the craziness of family life. Some mums set out to conquer the blogging world, others ended up there entirely by accident. In today's episode of Mum-to-Mum Monday we'll be talking about starting a blog. How you can successfully build a blog from the ground up, and still be a Mum at the same time. My guest today is SuperMum, Abby Lawson. Abby lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with her husband, Donnie and sons Connor and Caleb who are 8 and 5. Feeling like she needed a little more in life, and on a whim, Abby set up 'Just a Girl and Her Blog'. She wrote about anything that came to mind; parenthood, home renovations and children's parties. As her confidence in blogging grew, so did her following and social media presence. Within 18 months of starting the blog, Abby recognised that there was a niche market and set about turning her humble blog into a business. Since then, her blog has become so successful that it's no longer 'Just a Girl'. Her husband Donnie quit his job and now works full time alongside Abby. The two of them, as well as her sister, now form a team which consistently creates 5 figures every single month! This has given them a lifestyle to be envious of. Abby and Donnie share both quality time with the kids, and the work in the business. They do this four days a week... and the fifth day is reserved for family and fun. In today's episode, we learn the step-by-step process of setting up a blog from scratch. From finding an idea, discovering your niche audience, to create engaging content every time. We also talk about the dreaded technology, and how to simply set up a website without too many headaches. I'm delighted to welcome Abby to my show today. She teaches you that it's possible build a blog from humble beginnings (when you think no-one's reading), through to a thriving business that gives you the lifestyle of your dreams.

Tonight's special guest is Kristina Grevatt from Nova Scotia, Canada, a survivor and activist who writes on her "Soar My Soul: Journey of a Butterfly" BLOG. "I want to make a difference in this world," Kristina says, "and helping educate and open up dialogue about the topic of childhood abuse is one of the greatest ways I think I can do that. I have shared my blog with all those I know in the hopes it may help others to come forward too." Her father physically, mentally, and sexually abused her mother and children. A messy divorce when Kristina was six meant the kids went into foster care where she was to remain for the rest of her childhood. She lived in several homes where she was neglected, physically abused or molested until she was about ten. Finally a "good family" adopted her. "I was saved, Kristina says, "and knew what life and safety in a family was supposed to be." Despite this, she was sexually assaulted at 12 by a boy she was supposed to be able to trust. He abused her for a three days. But she goes on, "Aside from that though, my adoption truly saved my life! My new family gave me everything all children deserve to have in their lives. Therapy, journal writing, and simply speaking about and sharing my story, have been my forms of healing and helping others to heal, both things I am passionate about." Her BLOG reflects all these things. "Today, I am still healing and I know I will be until the day I die, but I have come so very far from where I was in my early adult years when I was first trying to sort through all of this." Kristina concludes, "It is one of my deepest beliefs that one of the greatest ways to heal from and work to end sexual abuse is to talk about and share our experiences."
Tonight's special guest is Mary E Graziano from Hamilton, Ontario, a child abuse survivor and member of the NAASCA family. Mary is Assistant Director at Abuse Survivors and Victims United, where she's been pairing up her poetry with the work of artist Michal Madison. She describes herself as an independent advocate for child abuse. She's very active in sometimes "secret" groups on Facebook and a member of Protecting Canadian Children and a member and volunteered at Butterfly Dreams Abuse and Recovery. Ms Graziano is a writer / poet / blogger, writing poetry about child abuse and trying to transmit the message that child abuse is wrong, stressing that we as adults need to be the voices for those who can't speak, the abused and traumatized child-victims. Her BLOG (http://www.nippercats.blogspot.com) is about her own child abuse. She says, "I started writing back in 2008, but now as a survivor I write about children in general." Mary works in an elementary school, assisting in the classroom with a teacher, and is an Educational Assistant for children with special needs. Mary writes, "Helping them do their work, teaching them skills they will need later in life. I have been doing this job for 25 years." and this is showing up as a new job, sorry about that everyone.
