In this powerful and reflective episode, Susan Vernicek shares a timely reminder sparked by a quote from David Childers: “You have a choice to show up well.” Whether you're in sales, coaching, leadership, or parenting, life is made up of moments. And in each moment, we get to choose how we show up. Recorded fresh off a title sales conference (in the very industry Susan coaches in), this episode invites listeners to drop the pressure of perfection and instead pursue intentional presence. Susan shares how her nearly two decades in sales, coaching, and motherhood have taught her that showing up well isn't about doing it all, it's about how you carry yourself in the doing. You'll hear about: How “showing up well” can change the energy of a room, a conversation, and a relationship Why follow-through, listening, and mindset matter more than hustle How her DTC family and coaching clients are rewriting what success looks like A call to choose consistency over chaos, value over vanity, and connection over performance Key Takeaways: You don't have to show up perfect; you just have to show up well Real growth happens in how you lead, serve, and connect across all life domains Whether you're a title rep, mom, coach, or entrepreneur; your energy speaks first For Listeners to Reflect On: Where in your life are you showing up by default instead of with intention? What would “showing up well” look like in your next client meeting, family dinner, or team call? Let's connect on Instagram: @SusanVernicek or Visit: www.SusanVernicek.com

Text a question to Victoria!“One of the biggest lessons that I've learned in my adult life so far is that growth doesn't ever feel easy.” –Victoria MarcouillierThis is a very special week as Victoria is turning 33 and the podcast is turning 5! In this special birthday episode, Victoria gets real about turning 33 and the reflections that come with stepping into a new season of life and business. After five years of juggling motherhood, entrepreneurship, and building BrandWell into a thriving design agency, she shares how shifting gears toward a boutique, higher-touch business model has brought both clarity and growing pains. The changes may feel uncomfortable at times, but Victoria opens up about why she sees this season as a sign of meaningful growth.As she looks ahead, Victoria shares the three main areas she's choosing to focus on this year: getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, creating better organization for her calendar and her mind, and building BrandWell with a long-term vision. From hiring her first business mentor and surrounding herself with women further ahead, to creating more margin in her daily routines and finally building a CEO dashboard to organize big-picture ideas, she's leaning into the discomfort of change while also setting herself up for greater clarity and peace.Victoria also reflects on how her mindset has shifted since her 20s, from chasing hustle and quick wins to embracing the slow, steady, and meaningful work of creating a legacy brand. With honesty and vulnerability, she shares how she's learning to measure success less by monthly sales and more by profitability, sustainability, and consistency over time. Whether you're in a season of hustle, growth, or reflection, this episode will inspire you to pause, take inventory, and start planting the seeds for your own long game.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Visit BrandWell DesignsFollow BrandWell on InstagramFor show notes, head to www.thebrandingbusinessschool.com/thepodcast/ Show notes for episodes 1-91 can be found at www.brandwelldesigns.com/thepodcast/ Follow BrandWell on Instagram.

She found not only the foundation of true wellness but also a business model that allowed her to create abundant income while making a bigger impact on families worldwide. She now mentors moms in building both health and legacy wealth, proving that freedom and financial success can go hand in hand.

Let me ask you something. How often do you find yourself in the middle of a negative emotion like stress, frustration, guilt, loneliness, or even boredom, and instead of just feeling it, you immediately start trying to escape it? Maybe you scroll through your phone, grab some chocolate from the pantry, or you dive into another spreadsheet at work, even though you're already exhausted. Maybe you negotiate with yourself by saying something like, I'll just do this one thing to feel better, and tomorrow I'll get back on track. How familiar does this sound to you? If you're thinking, How did you know what I was thinking, I want you to know that you're not alone. Almost every client I work with, especially the high-stress professionals like CPAs, tax preparers, bookkeepers, lawyers, and business owners, struggles with negative emotions.

Do you ever notice how hard it feels to say no? Maybe it's when a colleague asks you to pick up extra work even though you're already drowning in deadlines.

Saying no often feels uncomfortable, almost like you're letting someone down or being selfish. But what if I told you that saying no could actually be easy? That saying no can be one of the most powerful tools you use to protect your time, your energy, and your mental health?

Do you ever catch yourself standing in front of the fridge or pantry, not because you're hungry, but because you're bored, stressed, or just want a break from everything going on in your life? Maybe you've had this thought: “Why can't I just eat like a normal person?” I hear this from my clients all the time, especially high-stress professionals like accountants, lawyers, and business owners. People who can handle complex projects, manage other people's money or businesses, and make huge decisions every day. Yet when it comes to food? It feels like it's the one area that's out of control. Today, I want to help you understand why you overeat, and more importantly, how you can stop, without relying on willpower. Because the solution isn't about discipline or “eating less.” It's about understanding what's really going on in your brain, the root cause, and learning how to process emotions instead of numbing them with food.
