In Episode 113 of Earned, we sit down with Sarah Gibson Tuttle, the Founder and CEO of Olive & June—the industry leader holding the No. 1 spot in the nail category. To start, we dive into the overall journey of Olive & June, with Sarah explaining how she got her inspiration for the original business model from Drybar, the premium blow-out hair salon. To reach the full potential for what Olive & June could do, Sarah reveals that her goal was an affordable and accessible salon manicure in whatever time the customer had to spend. Next, we explore how the brand navigated the pandemic and pivoted into becoming a product-driven company. Sarah explains how mindful the team at Olive & June is about holding their consumers in the highest regard, and keeping their focus on delivering the right product to the right market at the right price. While unpacking her 10 year finance career, Sarah shares that she's a firm believer in the idea that you only get to live your life once, and then imparts the wisdom to dig deep and make a change when you know something isn't right, or could be better. We learn about Olive & June's approach to the influencer space, and how the brand's goal is to solve consumer pain points, which leads to a philosophy of only launching products that fulfill actual customer needs. Sarah emphasizes that today's beauty consumer wants REAL recommendations from real people, which is why creating stellar products is key to success. In her own publishing journey, Sarah prides herself on being very authentic—showing her audience that relationships aren't always transactional, while still protecting her own boundaries. To close the show, Sarah speaks to her goals of eventually taking a more active role in investing in other female-founded brands, which she hopes will break down barriers for women to come. In this episode, you will learn: The value of creating durable, long-lasting products and knowing your consumer. How understanding consumer behaviors and creating intentional distribution strategies can help you become the top-performing brand in major retailers.The balance of authenticity and privacy in influencer marketing, and how leading with product quality can foster genuine connections with your consumers.Resources:Olive & June - https://oliveandjune.com/Connect with the Guest:Sarah's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gibsontuttle/Connect with Conor Begley & CreatorIQ:Conor's LinkedIn - @conormbegleyCreatorIQ LinkedIn - @creatoriqFollow us on social:CreatorIQ YouTube - @TribeDynamicsCreatorIQ Instagram - @creatoriqCreatorIQ TikTok - @creator.iqCreatorIQ Twitter - @CreatorIQ

In this week's episode we're re-airing one of our top episodes with Sarah Gibson Tuttle, the CEO and founder of Olive & June, an innovative at-home nail-care brand that's disrupting the industry. Risking everything you have to pursue a dream can be the scariest but most rewarding thing a person can do in their life. Today's guest has done just that. Sarah spent a decade in equity sales trading at Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan. She never thought she'd become an entrepreneur until her love for Drybar inspired her to create the same thing, but for nails. Although everybody thought her idea was crazy, Sarah was confident it would work and put all her savings into the first flagship store. Olive & June is now successfully democratizing nail care with their full suite of at-home mani and pedi products. In today's episode, we talk about how life's curveballs can be the biggest gift to sending you on a new path to rediscover your purpose and Sarah explains what it was like for her to ditch her safe corporate job to follow her passions, what kept her in her previous job for so long, and how her divorce added to her motivation to shake things up. She also shares the fears and imposter syndrome she overcame on the journey and the importance of therapy in her personal and professional life. Tuning in, you'll hear how Sarah got funding, how she built a strong community around her brand, and how she has successfully pivoted over the years (especially during COVID). She also shares the importance of delegating and how, as a wife, mother, and entrepreneur, she manages it all. For a very vulnerable real conversation on what it takes to build a multimillion-dollar company from scratch, tune in today!In this episode, we'll talk to Sarah about:* Overcoming career leap obstacles. [03:27]* Sarah's enduring passion through entrepreneurial challenges. [05:31]* Sarah's lengthy tenure as an equity sales trader. [08:52]* How divorce spurred her to shake things up.

Christie encourages our souls as she finds emblems of connection with broken pieces. We may just have little pieces right now but one day we'll see in full.  "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."- Hebrews 11:1 In today's conversation:  Did you know about mudlarking?  How did Christie find bits of the past when she was in England?

Who else is so tired? How can we find rest?  Not everything in the past three years has been lost. We have to find out where it's hiding. Sometimes God invites us outside our rhythm and when we get intentional, we see God showing up. So much has happened for all of us in the past three years.  Some of that is the disconnection of the body and our souls have been scattered. Christie shares about needing to be gathered up and made whole after years of breaking. You too?  Lisa-Jo says, "There's company in just being empty together." In today's conversation:  When Lisa-Jo saw Christie depleted and what did she do?  How do we find our souls again?  Learn from Christie's experience about how to fix airplane drama. What did Christie share that can hardly be believed?  Sudden Journeys is who helped plan Christie's European travel experience.

What does it mean to live and not just survive?  We're eternal creatures with souls.  Christie says that our soul is the life of the body. Lisa-Jo asks, "How can we rest without checking out?"  Step outside of your normal rhythms.  What does rest look like when we turn to the Lord?  What extra burdens are we putting on ourselves. If you feel like you're dying, we have some helpful thoughts for you.  We can practice a soul rest in the midst.  God breathed life into us in the beginning. Let the Holy Spirit breathe into us now.  What does my soul even need? In the past three years, all of us have been through so much and we've held on to each other.  Let's all look around and ask, Is my soul connected to my body?

Christie and Lisa-Jo are taking you behind the scenes today of the pod. Do we make money on the pod? Have you ever wanted to start a podcast? We share a little of what's involved. Also, if your yard or your heart feels a little sad, growth comes slow, don't give up hope! Remember how far you've come. Spring will burst forth...it's coming! Trees can anchor us. Did you know what the Bible says about trees? There will still be casualties in life. Trees do die and things don't work out but we can keep going. For things to grow, some things have to die. There are always more seeds. E.B. White's husband described a memory of her so well, "she was calming plotting the resurrection." It's never too late to plant the seeds and new things in our lives. Mentions today: Bower & Branch Fasting Growing Trees and where our podcast picture comes from today. The early-blooming cherry tree is Okame.

How much do you love coffee or wine? Lisa-Jo and Christie are having are riding the sluggard, struggle bus during Lent sometimes and they have helpful nuggets of truth to share with us.   In our self-care culture, it's easy to let our sinful nature take us right back to ourselves rather than the cross.  There's a difference in self-care that's life giving for those around us and there's the self-care that gets crooked.  We want more excuses to serve ourselves but then Lent is holding Lisa-Jo and Christie accountable in this season.  When you're feeling the "sandy gears of life" be curious and lean into Jesus. Sometimes clinging to something we want doesn't leave space for what can end up being so much better.  Lisa-Jo's brother Joshua battled cancer for 2 years. Do you have a question for God?

Object lesson today is we don't need to white knuckle life. Have you gotten something wrong this week?  Wherever you are in your life, we can all relate to the days when we can't move forward as planned. You think it's going to get nice and it doesn't. Can you believe what happened in Lisa-Jo's kitchen? Baking with love versus science makes for a funny contrast. A moment is supposed to be great and then it's not. Instead of holding on tight, maybe we need to let go.  Lent is a season where we recognize our own morality. Embrace that we don't just make mistakes each time but we sin.  Jesus came while we were still sinners and He didn't wait for us to know we needed Him.  We can trust the Rescuer and receive His freedom.  Being Transfigured: Lenten Homilies by Chris GreenThe Best Christmas Pageant Ever synopsisPsalm 116:7-8  Isaiah 62:4  Podcast links:Follow Lisa-Jo on Instagram @lisajobaker and Christie at @christiepurifoy and please leave a review about what you think about today's podcast!

Christie has a rare, special guest. They talk about how nothing ever stays the same.  Building something good takes time and thoughtfulness, which involves their home at Maplehurst. They recap the past decade and what's to come while giving tips to us all, no matter our stage of life. Our place can have an awakened spiritual life! Rest is needed in the process.  Where is an area that you're needing to rebuild?  Podcast links: Follow Lisa-Jo on Instagram @lisajobaker and Christie at @christiepurifoy and please leave a review about what you think about today's podcast!

Can you believe what Christie is doing at Maplehurst?  Sometimes embodied faithfulness can feel like drudgery.  Today we talk about how staying awake and staying in motion with our faith is a messy journey.  We don't romanticize life here.  Staying awake to what God is doing is sometimes like falling forward. If you want to sleep-walk or numb the pain, we have some glimmers of hope for you. Being in the process is not bad. Cleaning dishes every day is annoying but in order to stay awake we can't have tunnel vision for just today! This episode will give you some perspective for all of us who are in the muddy middle somewhere in our life right now.  Podcast links: Follow Lisa-Jo on Instagram @lisajobaker and Christie at @christiepurifoy and please leave a review about what you think about today's podcast!

Lisa-Jo's daughter, Zoe, has a fantastic take on their family's visit back to South Africa. How do our lives change if we can step out of our regular perspective?  Today you can learn from other main characters across the world. There's relief for not being the main character ourselves. We don't have to travel to grow in this area, spiritually or otherwise. Ever had a big change from travel, revelation or on a regular Tuesday with God? It has to become part of us and we can't go back to sleep. Let's help each other stay awake to our own lives!  Lisa-Jo mentions the book, The Silver Chair by C.S. Lewis.  Podcast links: Follow Lisa-Jo on Instagram @lisajobaker and Christie at @christiepurifoy and please leave a review about what you think about today's podcast!

How was Lisa-Jo's trip to South Africa? Learn about her homeland and you'll come away with hopeful nuggets for your heart.  We all have ways to hold the beauty of coming alongside others in their life-changing work.  When God invites us to steward his creation it costs us something.  It applies to us in the middle of the ordinary, boring lives while being smack dab in the middle of our redemptive lives. It all matters. Podcast links: Follow Lisa-Jo on Instagram @lisajobaker and Christie at @christiepurifoy and please leave a review about what you think about today's podcast!

This is the story of what Christie found at the back of a very messy closet. This is a story about the shadow side of every "Yes." In our lives, and in this new year, are we the gardeners sowing seed, or are we the soil in which our Maker plants seed? If we ARE the soil, how do we prepare ourselves to receive and nurture the RIGHT seeds? These are the questions Lisa-Jo and Christie explore as they trade stories in the second half of a two-part New Year's conversation.

This is the story of eating a 3 course dinner soaking wet in the middle of a rainstorm in Zimbabwe.  And the story of yellow leaves falling in the middle of summer in Pennsylvania. And how we have often both been so desperate in our dissatisfaction it took us years to find the antidote. But in this episode we share what that looks like, how to apply it in your own life, and the very best place to take all your longing and dissatisfied dreams.

How to Hack Reading:  Read more than one thing at a time.  You have permission to skip, skim or soak in the book.  Order from the library because it's budget friendly. How to hack getting your kids to read: Take them into a local book store to wonder and find something on their own. Be hands off and let them try a book you wouldn't pick for them. Be hands in, as far as being aware and coach them without them knowing. Don't correct their interpretation but be willing to listen with excitement.  Christie and Lisa-Jo are leaving books in other places around the house so they can read at any moment.  Lisa-Jo has a genius hack with the Kindle APP! Did you know about it? Embrace Audio Books, like Christie has, while her family travels or as she has time alone.  Christie reminds us that reading isn't just to learn but a way to learn new ways of seeing, new ways of creativity and new ways of enjoying ordinary life.  Christie's daughter is reading The Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sullivan.  Got a reader in your life? Share this week's episode with them!

This week we're discussing a topic we always get requests to cover, imposter syndrome! To help break things down, we brought on Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin, a licensed psychologist, executive coach, organizational consultant, and speaker.
