Today I am sharing an episode between Josh hall and myself. Josh hall is a good friend of mine, a business owner, and a creator here in Columbus, Ohio. His business is all about web design and he has a podcast called Web Design Business with Josh Hall, and I was a recent guest. So this is a conversation with Josh as friends, talking about what I've learned over the last year. Plus as a new father, how that has impacted my work and why it's not all sunshine and rainbows, but definitely a choice I would make 10 times out of 10.

You are the Light of the World; Matthew 5:14-16 by Rev. Josh Hall, Senior Pastor, on December 21, 2025, at FBCTLH. Third Sunday of Advent - LOVE

Hope can feel fragile when prayers go unanswered and waiting feels endless. In this Advent message on Hope, Ps. Josh Hall explores Luke 1 through the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth. Learn how biblical hope is formed by staying in the pain, praying through disappointment, and ultimately seeing Jesus. Discover how God works in the waiting and why hope is reborn when we trust His promises.

As a web designer, you've probably considered looking into additional revenue streams, but have you ever considered sponsorships?If not, you'll want to hear this conversation I had with sponsorship coach and author of the new book “Sponsor Magnet” Justin Moore.While this is mostly a chance for him to coach me live on my sponsorship strategies, it applies to web designers even with small client-based audiences and followings.There is so much opportunity for sponsorships at all levels with brands, local businesses and even referral partners that you might not be thinking about as a web designer. So, instead of just sitting on gold…let's dig some up in the form of sponsorships with Justin!Side note: as a web designer, I must say, chef's kiss to the sponsormagnet.com site!

Jay Clouse is best known for two things:Being the founder of Creator Science, and being one of the most prominent thought-leaders in the content creator spaceBeing the first 4x guest on the Web Design Business PodcastJay and I connected early in his journey into the world of courses, coaching, podcasting, memberships and content creation and over the last 5 years, I've seen him excel in all areas.So much so, that I'm a paying member of his community “The Lab” where I keep tabs on all things socials, content creation, podcasting, memberships and more.But a big shift happened for Jay last year when he and his wife had their first little cuddly Clouse. So for this chat, we focus on that – specifically what he's learned in growing and maintaining his business with harsher time and bandwidth constraints as a new parent.Enjoy!

Gospel of Luke: Luke 13:10-21 by Rev. Josh Hall, Senior Pastor, on November 9, 2025, at FBCTLH. HERITAGE SUNDAY!

Design and building websites…that's the fun part.Managing the project, collecting content, onboarding, handling revisions and feedback…typically, not so much.Which is why, if you can automate as much of the repeatable tasks and make a system and process for the “unfun” parts of a web design project, it'll make your life much easier and more profitable.That's what we're diving into this one with automation and systems specialist (and fellow 17hats user) Kristen Lettini.We get into:What automations you're missing (and why to add them NOW)The GOLD of auto-remindersUsing a CRM like 17hats to automate as much as possibleMy “before and after” automation momentWhy improving systems is THE KEY to sustainabilityGet my quote, contract & invoice templates (for free) with a 7-day trial of 17hats, the CRM I've been using for over 10 years!

Gospel of Luke: Luke 13:1-9 by Rev. Josh Hall, Senior Pastor, on November 2, 2025, at FBCTLH.

Being an entrepreneur is challenging. Being a parent-entrepreneur is even more challenging. Being a special needs parent entrepreneur…it's tough to put into words. But one thing's for sure, the freedom of schedule and flexible availability, to be able to care for a special needs kiddo as a web designer is UNMATCHED and well worth all the challenges.We're diving into all of that and more in this special group chat that I had with Marc Hyde, Lisa Dorian and Ed Gomes. All members of Web Designer Pro who have something in common, being a web designer and entrepreneur with one or more special needs children we care for.We get into:Future planning for special care after retirementHow goals and vision changes after having a child with special needsHow to structure your schedule and calls around a complex scheduleHow we stay balanced during hard times (emergencies, surgeries, etc)The invaluable need for a supportive community of others who are in similar situationsAnd don't worry, you don't need to have a special needs kiddo to get a lot out of this convo because everything we talk about is applicable to you as an entrepreneur parent.Loving the Web Design Business podcast?

In this sermon, Greene County Director of Missions Josh Hall preaches from Romans 15:20–22, where the Apostle Paul expresses his ambition to preach the gospel “where Christ has not been named.” Josh challenges the church to embrace that same missionary vision—beginning right here in Greene County. Through this passage, we're reminded that gospel advancement is not just a distant mission but a local calling to plant churches and proclaim Christ where His name is not yet known.

When I began my career in web design, my initial goal was to “get a job” as a web designer for an agency or corporation…until I realized corporate life is NOT for me.But that's me, I enjoy the world of risk and reward of freelancing and entrepreneurship, whereas the freelance lifestyle is NOT for everyone.So today I'm thrilled to share the conversation I had with Chris Webb, who's had a long career as a web designer and developer as an agency and corporate web designer. But Chris also does freelance on the side, so he has a unique perspective on the pros and cons of freelancer vs agency vs corporate web designers.What makes this convo extra special is that Chris has been a close personal friend of mine since early high school. I looked up to him big-time when I first got started in design because he was “the cool agency designer,” and he mentored me in many ways in those early days. So to be able to have him on the show now, 16 years later, is an awesome, full-circle moment for us both
