Set Up A Scholarship Strategy Session w/ Kara! In today's episode, we're thrilled to welcome back Kara, a beacon of inspiration for those navigating the path to college without the burden of student loans. As a 20-something Christian entrepreneur and amateur snowboarder, Kara shares her journey from being a high school student fascinated by personal finance to becoming a pioneer in strategizing a debt-free college education. Key Takeaways: - Kara's Philosophy: Loans were never an option for Kara. Her approach to financing college was akin to solving a puzzle, using resources like CLEP tests, scholarships, grants, and internships to not only avoid debt but to graduate with savings. - A Path Less Traveled: Kara's story is a testament to the possibilities that open up when you view college financing through a lens of resourcefulness and proactive planning. Her strategies included testing out of classes, utilizing community college for lower tuition costs, and capitalizing on various scholarships and grants. - The Iceberg of Scholarships: Kara introduces us to the concept of scholarships being like an iceberg, where most opportunities lie below the surface. She emphasizes the importance of digging deeper beyond the initial financial aid award letters and exploring options through high school advisors, community colleges, and external organizations. - Scholarships for All Ages: Kara shares that there are scholarship opportunities available even for middle schoolers, highlighting the importance of starting the search early and considering non-traditional paths to funding education. - Diverse Scholarship Criteria: Not all scholarships require stellar GPAs or essays. Many are available based on interests, majors, or even the college you plan to attend. Kara's approach involves personalizing the scholarship search to match the individual's unique situation. Kara's Tips for Scholarship Success: - Explore Beyond the Obvious: Don't stop at the financial aid award letter. Look for scholarships offered by your department, local businesses, and organizations related to your field of study. - Record Keeping: Maintain detailed records of all communications and applications. This not only helps in staying organized but can also be crucial in resolving any discrepancies. - Seek Professional Guidance: Kara offers personalized scholarship strategy sessions, leveraging her expertise to find opportunities tailored to individual profiles.

Happily Ever After is a Fairy Tale My guest today is Kara Haug. She is the creator of Grace Unbound and is a practicing sex educator with a B.A. in Psychology and a Masters in Theological Studies, as well as a certificate in Sexual Health Education from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her role mainly centers on teaching youth about shameless sexuality. She does a lot of workshops and is doing important work shifting the narrative on sexuality. And in this episode, she talks about the fairytale misconceptions that all women often face in their daily lives. Because there are cultural reinforcements that peg a certain brand of story for women, many are going into marriages and motherhood with inflated expectations, only to find that things are much more challenging than they originally thought they would be. This episode explores this topic and offers some solutions for women who are struggling. Listen along. The Biggest Misconception that Women Have About Sex and Sexuality Kara says that women have been given the misconception from a young age of this giant fairy tale image that bundles romance and partnership. And she says that as reach adulthood we are hit with the reality that “the chemicals in our brain have expiration dates”. In short, women are often fed the story that romance is going to be the easiest thing in the world. It's just a matter of finding the right partner and living happily ever after, but the reality of it is much different. Romantic partnerships are a lot of work. The ‘Goal' of Motherhood and Long-Term Partnerships Kara also talks about the goals that women are meant to aspire to–the script they are given about motherhood and long-term partnerships–never really factor in the tough moments after the wedding or birth. No one really prepares women for how difficult the whole dynamic is going to be – especially if you are juggling a career, kids, and a complicated relationship. Your marriage and children won't unlock an infinite wellspring of energy and motivation from within you. Most of the time it's going to be hard, and it will be far from the fairy tale expectations that we see perpetuated in society. Struggles With Sexuality as a Women There are still considerable struggles for women to claim their desire and exist comfortably in the open while at the same time claiming their sexual yearnings. Younger women are still being labeled as ‘sluts' in schools if they explore their sexuality, so there's still an uphill climb that doesn't usually end until adulthood…and sometimes never at all. The Biggest Threat to Marriages? Kara thinks that because of how involved marriage (and motherhood) can be, the biggest threat to marriages is when two partners shift their dynamic from romantic lovers to a business partner type of relationship. And identities get lost amidst all of the chaos. Kara says that prioritizing our identities as romantic partners is the most important thing. She also suggests regular conversations as a way to switch off the autopilot and reclaim your identity – despite the busy, daily happenings of adulthood. She says that even if it's just a date night every week, or sitting down and having a conversation about sexual or other relationship needs every month. That practice can save marriages from turning into business partnerships. The Hardest Part for Kara Kara said that she had past traumas resurface while she was breastfeeding her child. She states that many women also experience these traumas around their bodies when they become mothers. She says more on the subject. Listen along! There's Nothing Wrong With You! Being in a relationship is extremely challenging. Add motherhood and the constant stress of raising a family and you'll hardly have any free time to spare. Just because you are struggling and finding the whole experience challenging does not mean there is something wrong with you. It's completely normal to feel like there is. Don't worry about it, you're doing completely fine. What Are Women Saying the Most as Time Goes on As mothers, Kara says that the most frequent exploration is pleasure, and being comfortable with exploring that as a regular goal in their relationship. In addition, a lot of women are struggling with body image and wanting to feel desirable, so that is a continual anxiety-inducing reality of being a woman in the 21st century. Shifting the Narrative Kara shares that the narrative should be shifted into the direction of more independence and identity for women. She communicates that to her young daughter that it's nice to have a partner, but she doesn't have to rely on a male partner to give her an identity. She talks a lot to the youth and she found that even doing simple eye contact exercises made them uncomfortable. So a part of her job as a sex educator means that Kara is continually trying to teach the benefits of eye contact, communication, vulnerability, and consent to these younger individuals to keep shifting the narrative.

Her role mainly centers on teaching youth about shameless sexuality. She does a lot of workshops and is doing important work shifting the narrative on sexuality. And in this episode, she talks about the fairytale misconceptions that all women often face in their daily lives. Because there are cultural reinforcements that peg a certain brand of story for women, many are going into marriages and motherhood with inflated expectations, only to find that things are much more challenging than they originally thought they would be. This episode explores this topic and offers some solutions for women who are struggling. Listen along. The Biggest Misconception that Women Have About Sex and Sexuality Kara says that women have been given the misconception from a young age of this giant fairy tale image that bundles romance and partnership. And she says that as reach adulthood we are hit with the reality that “the chemicals in our brain have expiration dates”. In short, women are often fed the story that romance is going to be the easiest thing in the world. It’s just a matter of finding the right partner and living happily ever after, but the reality of it is much different. Romantic partnerships are a lot of work. The ‘Goal’ of Motherhood and Long-Term Partnerships Kara also talks about the goals that women are meant to aspire to–the script they are given about motherhood and long-term partnerships–never really factor in the tough moments after the wedding or birth. No one really prepares women for how difficult the whole dynamic is going to be – especially if you are juggling a career, kids, and a complicated relationship. Your marriage and children won’t unlock an infinite wellspring of energy and motivation from within you. Most of the time it’s going to be hard, and it will be far from the fairy tale expectations that we see perpetuated in society. Struggles With Sexuality as a Women There are still considerable struggles for women to claim their desire and exist comfortably in the open while at the same time claiming their sexual yearnings. Younger women are still being labeled as ‘sluts’ in schools if they explore their sexuality, so there’s still an uphill climb that doesn’t usually end until adulthood…and sometimes never at all. The Biggest Threat to Marriages? Kara thinks that because of how involved marriage (and motherhood) can be, the biggest threat to marriages is when two partners shift their dynamic from romantic lovers to a business partner type of relationship. And identities get lost amidst all of the chaos. Kara says that prioritizing our identities as romantic partners is the most important thing. She also suggests regular conversations as a way to switch off the autopilot and reclaim your identity – despite the busy, daily happenings of adulthood. She says that even if it’s just a date night every week, or sitting down and having a conversation about sexual or other relationship needs every month. That practice can save marriages from turning into business partnerships. The Hardest Part for Kara Kara said that she had past traumas resurface while she was breastfeeding her child. She states that many women also experience these traumas around their bodies when they become mothers. She says more on the subject. Listen along! There’s Nothing Wrong With You! Being in a relationship is extremely challenging. Add motherhood and the constant stress of raising a family and you’ll hardly have any free time to spare. Just because you are struggling and finding the whole experience challenging does not mean there is something wrong with you. It’s completely normal to feel like there is. Don’t worry about it, you’re doing completely fine. What Are Women Saying the Most as Time Goes on As mothers, Kara says that the most frequent exploration is pleasure, and being comfortable with exploring that as a regular goal in their relationship. In addition, a lot of women are struggling with body image and wanting to feel desirable, so that is a continual anxiety-inducing reality of being a woman in the 21st century. Shifting the Narrative Kara shares that the narrative should be shifted into the direction of more independence and identity for women. She communicates that to her young daughter that it’s nice to have a partner, but she doesn’t have to rely on a male partner to give her an identity. She talks a lot to the youth and she found that even doing simple eye contact exercises made them uncomfortable. So a part of her job as a sex educator means that Kara is continually trying to teach the benefits of eye contact, communication, vulnerability, and consent to these younger individuals to keep shifting the narrative.

Gift Biz Unwrapped | Women Entrepreneurs | Bakers, Crafters, Makers | StartUp
Wow! 100 episodes and almost two years have passed since the very first Gift Biz Unwrapped podcast went live … it doesn’t seem like that long! I feel fortunate to have interviewed so many impressive business owners and service providers to our industry. Over time, the audience has become defined as people who are Gifters – Bakers – Crafters – Makers. People who create or sell handmade products and are in the process of, or already have started their own business out of their hobby or craft. I have learned so much hosting Gift Biz Unwrapped. Actually I pick up something new from each and every interview I do. Thank you to all my past guests. You have helped me produce a show that is giving value and encouragement to many. I have a great lineup ahead too. So do keep listening! At this milestone, I want to reflect on what’s been presented so far. I think you’ll find it interesting. I did. 3 Common ThreadsFrom my time working trade shows with my business The Ribbon Print Company (http://www.theribbonprintcompany.com) , and from the answers I get on the show, I have found three common questions and equally similar answers come up time and time again. These are questions that people struggle with as they consider starting their own business. And they are questions that people rethink during the inevitable times when they bump up against challenges as business owners. I find it fascinating that the answers and solutions are repeated so frequently. Due to this, I put a lot of weight into their credibility and reliability. I want to start a business but what should it be?So many creators have the desire to start a money making venture on the side or to replace their full time job. But what should it be? As creators our love and talents may spread across a variety of areas. Here are three Identification Points of how our listeners have figured this out for themselves. What did you love to do in the carefree days of your childhood? Donna – Royalty Cookies (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/donnaalufonhai/) Ronda – Cocoa Cabana (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/thecocoacabana/) What sparks a passion inside of you? What gets your heart beating a little faster? Mike – Rwanda Bean (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/rwandabean/) Tracy – Icing Smiles (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/icingsmiles/) Stacey – Shopping for a Change (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/staceyhorowitz/) Keep your eye out for a single event or moment that gives you the idea of a lifetime. Claudia – Exclamations! Gifts (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/claudia-johnson/) Bill – Cookies in a Snap (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/cookiesinasnap/) Amy – Marshmallow MBA (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/marshmallowmba/) Cathy – Cathy Nolan Art (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/cathynolan/) What do I actually do to get started?This is another spot where people freeze. They have their idea but it continues to be in their mind and not in their reality. It’s because the idea of taking action becomes overwhelming. How do you actually start? What do you do first? In each episode, I ask this question. The responses are similar but different. I do this for your benefit. Listen to these people and model their actions. The trick is to do something … take action … start! Kara – Kara’s Vineyard Wedding (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/karasvineyardwedding/) Karyn – Little Pink Ladybug (http://giftbizunwrapped.com/littlepinkladybug/) Common success traits of small business ownersThis is the honest truth. Not everyone is cut out to be a business owner. This is evidenced by how many businesses open shop online and then the site lays dormant. Or they open in a retail shop only to close within the first year. Do you have what it takes? Consider these traits.
