Send us a textThe mobile notary and loan signing industry is filled with opinions, misinformation, and yes, a whole lot of noise. Some say you need certification to succeed. Others say you're being scammed if you even consider paying for education. So what's the truth?I'm here to tell you straight: Certifications are 100% voluntary—but for the right notary, they can be a total game-changer.In this episode, I pull back the curtain on what certifications actually do (and what they don't), why haters love to hate, and how to navigate the noise with integrity, strategy, and confidence. You'll hear:Why certification is NOT required—but often helpfulWhat continuing education actually does for your business (think: confidence, credibility, and conversations)How to spot toxic energy and hypocrisy in the industryThe crabs-in-a-bucket mindset and why it's holding good notaries backHow to stop collecting certifications and start putting them to workWhy implementation is the missing link in most notaries' growthWe've got notaries from all walks of life joining this industry—white-collar professionals, single parents, career switchers, retirees, and people starting over. So when someone says “You don't need that,” they're often speaking from their place of privilege and experience—not yours.Education is how we shine the light back on the path we've walked so others can find their way, too.Mentioned in This Episode:

Something that has really been on my mind lately is fitness culture (or gym culture), and what it looks like to redefine that.Fitness culture is EVERYWHERE these days. It can provide motivation, support, and a sense of community, which are all amazing things!But…it can also lead to unhealthy thoughts and beliefs that are unrealistic, and end up doing more harm than good.I personally LOVE following other women in the fitness space; I look to them for inspiration and motivation, but I also find myself feeling overwhelmed and drained if I'm doing too much of it. I bet you can relate to this, too!Instead of following and consuming content from every.single.fitness coach, influencer, etc. online, I want to encourage you to ONLY learn from those who align with your personal goals.Redefining fitness culture/gym culture is super important to me - it's a huge reason why I'm all about helping you unfuck your fitness with this podcast, my programs, and more. Ultimately, I hope this episode leaves you refreshed, inspired, and ready to embrace the path that feels right for YOU!In this episode, we cover:What you think you'll feel vs. what you *actually* feel when consuming other people's content onlineWhat gym culture/fitness culture refers toNavigating overwhelming fitness advice & feedback from othersRedefining fitness culture and what that means for YOUBeing particular about who you follow and consume content fromLinks/Resources:Ep. 148 | Making Sense of Macros: How to ‘Budget' Your Macros and Stop Dieting for GoodJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

U.S. democracy is at an inflection point, and how we administer and verify our elections is more important than ever. From hanging chads to glitchy touchscreens to partisan disinformation, too many Americans worry that their votes won't count and that election results aren't trustworthy. It's crucial that citizens have well-justified confidence in this pillar of our republic.Technology can provide answers - but that doesn't mean moving elections online. As president and CEO of the nonpartisan nonprofit Verified Voting, Pamela Smith helps lead the national fight to balance ballot accessibility with ballot security by advocating for paper trails, audits, and transparency wherever and however Americans cast votes.On this episode of How to Fix the Internet, Pamela Smith joins EFF's Cindy Cohn and Danny O'Brien to discuss hope for the future of democracy and the technology and best practices that will get us there.In this episode you'll learn about:Why voting online can never be like banking or shopping onlineWhat a “risk-limiting audit” is, and why no election should lack it Whether open-source software could be part of securing our votesWhere to find reliable information about how your elections are conductedPamela Smith, President & CEO of Verified Voting, plays a national leadership role in safeguarding elections and building working alliances between advocates, election officials, and other stakeholders. Pam joined Verified Voting in 2004, and previously served as President from 2007-2017. She is a member of the National Task Force on Election Crises, a diverse cross-partisan group of more than 50 experts whose mission is to prevent and mitigate election crises by urging critical reforms. She provides information and public testimony on election security issues across the nation, including to Congress. Before her work in elections, she was a nonprofit executive for a Hispanic educational organization working on first language literacy and adult learning, and a small business and marketing consultant.This podcast is supported by the Alfred P.

Episode #219. How *do* you build an online community from scratch? Or once you have a community, how do you keep them engaged? And what if engagement dies down - can you revive it? Our guest today, Jordynn Wynn, has built an incredible community in an unexpected niche, and she is here to take us behind the scenes of her 8-figure business to show us how it's done! What's the niche? Jordynn is the cofounder of Insert Name Here, an LA-based premium hair extension brand, offering high-quality pieces at an affordable price point. You don't think hair extensions and hyper-engaged community - but it's the driving force behind their viral multi-million dollar business! And the best part - Jordynn's implementable strategies for growing an engaged community would work for pretty much any industry or niche! This is the part where I feel like I should make a just-for-men joke… Listen, sometimes I daydream about having a closet app like in Clueless- and maybe eventually a Moire Rose wig wall! (Shoutout to my fellow Schitt's Creek fans!) I traded in my real bangs for clip-in bangs a month into the pandemic. (Cutting my own bangs was NOT an option! lol) And for the past few weeks I've been rockin' (and loving!) the Zooey bangs from INH in dark brown! Thinking about bangs, extensions, or a clip-in pony for yourself? Check out their website and get a 20% discount when you use code: JACLYN20.In This Episode You'll Learn:An alternative strategy to position yourself (hint: you don't have to be the ultimate expert!) How to get started growing a community onlineWhat the ‘stickiness factor' is and how to create itHow to revive a community when engagement dies offWhat strategies, tactics, and systems INH use to continue to grow and nurture their community. Favorite Quotes“Originally the brand was very heavy in experimentation transformation. But what we've realized with our product and our community is that hair can cause so much insecurity. Our products gave them so much confidence and this was life-changing.”“Humanizing the brand is a really important factor of stickiness. Loyalty to individual brands has lost out to experimentation and exploration. So any opportunity that you have to create a deeper connection, even just beyond product, sales, and revenue, is really important.”Mentioned on the Show:Plug-N-PitchMore about Jordynn:Jordynn Wynn, the Co-Founder of Insert Name Here, is a visionary entrepreneur whose expertise in brand-building and influencer marketing has turned a niche idea into a multi-million dollar business. Jordynn's career began at ColourPop Cosmetics, where she helped concept and launch the brand, led collaborations with big names such as Disney and Sailor Moon, and rose from intern to Marketing Director. In 2018, Jordynn and ColourPop colleague Sharon Pak joined forces to found Insert Name Here, an LA-based premium hair extension brand that offers high-quality pieces at an affordable price point. Their brand has revolutionized the way Millennials and Generation Z interact with hair extensions, accessories, and self-expression. Find Jordynn:WebsiteInstagramTwitter

After noticing a gap in the beverage market for cocktail lovers who want to enjoy a night out (or in) with less alcohol, the trio came up with the concept for Spiritless — designed to be used as a delicious option to go booze-free or to lower the ABV in mixed drinks. Kentucky 74's advanced, innovative formulation process starts by blending their own high-proof, intensely flavored, rapidly aged spirit before undergoing distillation in a unique method which removes all but .5% or below of the alcohol (the same ABV as kombucha). The result is a non-alcoholic spirit, amber in color and underpinned by notes of caramel, vanilla, and oak. With Kentucky 74, consumers can enjoy their favorite cocktail completely Spiritless, or with a lower ABV by going halfsies with bourbon. While the team is launching Kentucky 74 as their first product, they are passionate about scaling their business to provide a comprehensive line of high-quality Spiritless solutions to the beverage world. The Spiritless team can envision the day that any consumer can walk into any bar, choose a cocktail, and #orderitspiritless.About Lauren Chitwood, CEOLauren Chitwood is an entrepreneur and award-winning brand evangelist. Not content to rest on her laurels — or to rest, period — her combination of head-in-the-clouds creativity and boots-on-the-ground guts have earned Lauren a reputation for being nimble, innovative and, above all else, a problem-solver.About Lexie Lancaster Larsen, COOLexie Lancaster Larsen is a Fifth-generation entrepreneur whose roots run deep within both manufacturing and production and bourbon. Passionate about building businesses from the ground up, Spiritless is the third female-founded company Lexie has had the opportunity to grow.You can learn more, connect and follow along with Spiritless here:www.spiritless.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/drinkspiritlessFacebook: www.facebook.com/drinkspiritlessFor questions, comments, or to stay in touch please check out Thefemalefounderpodcast.com or email rachel@thefemalefounderpodcast.com

The American healthcare system doesn't value preventative care, especially when it comes to reproductive health. One tool that could help in preventing injury and improving healing after birth is pelvic floor physical therapy. It's not a standard part of maternity care so its benefits aren't widely known by practitioners - even I didn't know that pelvic floor physical therapists could help with pregnancy and birth related issues until years into my practice. It may not even occur to providers to recommend it to you.That's where clinicians like Marcy Crouch come in. With over 180K followers on Instagram, Marcy, AKA The Down There Doc, is spreading the word of the benefits of pelvic floor PT. She believes in and practices pregnancy-related preparation and recovery through manual therapy and functional training just like you would with any other muscle. Someday I hope to see pelvic floor physical therapists as a routine part of birth including in-hospital care but until then, listen to this episode and ask your healthcare provider about pelvic PT.In this Episode, You'll Learn About:What makes Marcy so passionate about her workHow and why Marcy began offering pelvic floor physical therapy onlineWhat, exactly, a pelvic floor therapist isWhat kind of training and certifications are required to do her workWhat to expect if you go see a pelvic floor physical therapistWhether PT is covered by insuranceWhat the most common types of pelvic pain areWhich tools are helpful in healing and how to choose the right onesWhat are vulvar varicosities and what can be done--Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode237Check out The Birth Preparation CourseRegister for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right WayOur Sponsors:* Check out Dr. Mom Butt Balm: https://drmombuttbalm.com/* Check out Ritual and use my code DRNICOLE for 20% off: https://ritual.com/drnicole* Visit HomeThreads.com/DRNICOLE today and get a 15% off code for your first order!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
