In this episode, we open up about the creative strategies we've discovered as female real estate investors to secure capital when traditional funding feels out of reach. We share our experiences with tapping into equity, refinancing, and leveraging our networks, along with creative financing options like seller financing and partnerships. Throughout our journey, we've learned the importance of community, due diligence, and strategic planning.We've found that accessing our own equity through refinancing or HELOCs and building strong networks has been key to uncovering creative financing options. Understanding return on equity (ROE) has helped us evaluate property performance, and partnerships have provided us with capital, though they require careful due diligence.Raising private money and exploring creative financing methods like seller financing have been game-changers for us, bridging funding gaps when needed. We've realized that community support is invaluable for sharing resources and advice, and regularly reviewing our portfolio's equity is crucial for strategic planning. These approaches have empowered us to make informed decisions and grow our investments with confidence.  Resources:Grab your seat for our webinar on November 17thCheck out Episode 197Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

"Intuitive eating is not about perfectly staying within a calorie number or a maintenance threshold. It is about developing trust with your body and using each eating experience as feedback, not a test of whether you pass or fail."Have you ever felt like you just can't stop eating certain foods, even when you're full? Or maybe you find yourself second-guessing every food choice, worried you're eating too much as you try to follow intuitive eating? These everyday struggles can leave you feeling stuck in guilt, confusion, and chaos around food.In this solo episode, I'm answering real and vulnerable questions Rebels sent me on Instagram. These are questions I hear all the time as a Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. From why we overeat “delicious” food, to how to handle food indecision and what it means to “eat too many calories” as an intuitive eater, I'm breaking down myths, normalizing the messiness, and offering practical, compassion-filled tools to help you trust your body again.You'll also hear a relatable story from fellow Rebel, Jaimie, who went from tracking every calorie and overeating while on vacation to truly enjoying food and stopping when full. Together, we'll look at the patterns that keep so many of us stuck, the real reasons eating can feel chaotic, and why permission, structure, and kindness are game-changers on your intuitive eating journey.What You'll Learn:Why honoring fullness isn't about willpower and what's really behind that “can't stop eating” feelingHow food rules and restriction actually make overeating more likely, and what to do about itPractical tools for navigating indecision and food guilt so eating can feel less chaoticThe mindset shifts that help you move away from perfectionism with food and listen to your body's unique needsWhy occasional overeating is normal (even for intuitive eaters) and how every eating experience is an opportunity to learnHow to zoom out and look at the big picture of health, beyond any single meal or calorie countRemember, Rebels - this work isn't about getting every food choice perfect. It's about showing up with curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to trust your body one step at a time.

How do you go from hearing a quiet tug on your heart to building a thriving microschool in only four months? In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Talbot—former accountant, middle school math teacher, and now the founder of The Anchor Learning Center in Louisiana. From her one-stoplight town, Lauren followed God's unmistakable call to leave public education and step into something completely new: creating a homeschool hybrid microschool. Lauren shares how she describes her journey as “weaving the tapestry of my calling and destiny”—a beautiful, faith-filled story that began the day she buckled her seatbelt, drove away from her classroom, and received a life-changing phone call that confirmed her next steps. Today, just four months later, she and her mom are serving 30 students alongside student interns, bringing her vision to life and transforming her community. Lauren is also a proud member of our Microschool Masterminds community—a supportive network of founders who, like her, are guided step-by-step through building, growing, and sustaining their microschools and homeschool hybrids. In this episode, you'll also hear how the Mastermind has helped Lauren find encouragement, strategies, and clarity as she stepped into leadership. If you've ever wondered… Could I really build a microschool from scratch—even in a small town? How do I follow God's call when it feels risky or “taboo”? Where do I find a community of people who understand this journey? …then this story will inspire and empower you. ✨ Press play to hear Lauren's powerful testimony of surrender, faith, and courage—and discover how Microschool Masterminds can help you weave the tapestry of your own calling.  Starting a microschool comes with incredible joy—but it also comes with the pressure of making everyone happy: parents, students, even your staff. If you've ever felt the weight of parent expectations on your shoulders, this episode is for you. In today's conversation, I'm pulling back the curtain on how new founders can manage parent pressure without burning out. We'll talk about: ✨ Why boundaries are essential for your sanity and your school's success ✨ How proactive communication reduces conflict and builds trust ✨ The reality that confidence doesn't come overnight—it grows with systems, support, and consistency ✨ Practical ways to onboard parents, clarify expectations, and foster community involvement And most importantly, I'll remind you that you are not alone. What if you had a community of founders who reminded you that you're not crazy for doing this—and helped you do it well? That's exactly why I created Microschool Masterminds and the Open House Playbook. These resources are designed to give you the clarity, tools, and encouragement you need to lead with confidence.

I'm pulling back the curtain today for a very real and honest conversation about burnout. In this season of my life and business, I've been stretched thin and I can feel the warning signs creeping in—low energy, decision fatigue, and losing joy in the very things that once excited me. Instead of muscling through, I've been practicing what I teach: slowing down, setting boundaries, and building systems that protect my time, my family, and my love for baking. In this episode, I'm sharing what that looks like for me right now and why it matters for the longevity of your microbakery too.This isn't just theory—it's practical, actionable advice from someone walking through it in real time. I'll guide you through a simple self-audit you can use to spot burnout early, protect your energy, and take small, doable steps to restore your joy before you hit the wall. If you've been feeling stretched, overwhelmed, or on the edge of burnout, this conversation will make you feel less alone and give you tangible ways to keep your business healthy, sustainable, and aligned with the life you want to live.Resources: Grab the Profit & Pricing Calculator: Simplify the math, clarify your margins, and confidently price your products. http://carolinebower.com/calculator Follow me on Instagram for more microbakery tips: @carolinebower_sourdoughFind links to all of my sourdough microbakery favorites including packaging, pans, and more! www.carolinebower.com/linksDownload the FREE Guide and Checklist, Your First Steps to a Successful In-Home Bakery at https://www.carolinebower.com/checklist to begin building YOUR thriving microbakery!

In this episode of The Kelly Roach Show, Kelly explains why today's market disruption isn't something to fear - it's something to leverage. Kelly breaks down why we're in another “outlier moment” just like 2020–2021, and how the economic contraction we're experiencing is opening the door for the next era of wealth creation and business leadership. She introduces the concept of the Trust Building Offer, a model that's producing explosive results for clients right now, and shows how it's leveling the playing field, eliminating old marketing complexities, and allowing online business owners to scale without burnout. This episode will help you stop resisting what's not working anymore, and start leaning into a strategy that actually aligns with how today's buyers behave. You'll learn: How consumer behavior has simply returned to logical patterns Why past models are failing and how to stay relevant What a Trust Building Offer is and why it's working better than anything else How to lead in this new business era without needing a huge team or big ad budget TIMESTAMPS: 2:00 – Market contraction is normal and necessary for innovation 3:15 – Consumers are acting logically, not unreasonably 5:36 – Why disruptive seasons are the greatest chances for wealth transfer 6:18 – The economy is being reshaped (and what it means for your business) 8:00 – Introducing the new model: the Trust Building Offer 9:00 – Real results from clients using Trust Building Offers today 12:00 – Why most businesses are no longer competitive 13:20 – How Trust Building Offers elevate visibility, volume, and value 14:02 – Action steps to implement this new model right away Resources: Grab the FREE Guide to Building your Trust Building Offer: https://kellyroachinternational.kit.com/tbo  Join The Virtual Business School membership and start building your new offer with the support of our team: https://go.virtualbusinessschool.com/joinvbs  Follow Kelly on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellyroachofficial/   Follow Kelly on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kelly.roach.520/  

You're Not a Burden Have you ever felt like you're “too much” to be loved? Like your emotions are exhausting, your presence is heavy, or your needs might push people away? In today's episode, Cami speaks directly to the one quietly carrying the lie that they are a burden. Whether that message was spoken over you in childhood, implied through silence, or internalized through exhaustion, this conversation will remind you of the truth: God never called you a burden. He calls you beloved. And He carries what you carry—daily. Together, we'll explore: Where the lie of being “too much” often starts How it shapes the way we show up (or don't) in relationships What Scripture actually says about our weight, our worth, and God's willingness to hold both Why Jesus never asks us to clean up or quiet down before coming to Him This one's for the over-apologizer, the emotional caretaker, the one who says “I'm fine” through tears. You are not a problem to fix or a burden to bear. You are someone God loves to carry.

In this candid episode, Kelly shares a behind-the-scenes story about how a string of mismanaged logistics, broken agreements, and skyrocketing costs at a luxury hotel led to a major shift in her business model - and a powerful lesson about burnout, boundaries, and making executive decisions to prevent burnout.  What began as a stressful event planning experience turned into a breakthrough moment that resulted in a full overhaul of Kelly's live event strategy. Now, she's running more impactful, accessible, and profitable events - all without sacrificing joy, client experience, or her mental well-being. If you feel like you've been forcing a part of your business to work (even when it's clearly broken), this episode will give you permission to stop spinning your wheels, and start reinventing. TIMESTAMPS: 01:20 – Why burnout is the most dangerous threat to your business 04:00 – Learning to prevent burnout, not just respond to it 06:40 – The hotel event disaster: broken promises, rising costs, and poor service 17:45 – The radical pivot: shifting to alternative venues and brand sponsorships for lower overhead costs, more flexibility and control 24:30 – Making high-level retreats more accessible and affordable for clients 27:05 – The deeper lesson: when iteration isn't enough, it's time for reinvention 29:00 – Why joy should never be the cost of your next growth phase KEY TAKEAWAYS: Burnout doesn't just happen from overwork. It happens when misaligned systems wear you down Iteration isn't always the answer; sometimes you need a total reinvention Being decisive in making executive decisions protect your energy and your impact Creating accessible, profitable events can be done without selling from stage When your business model starts to feel heavy, it's time to question the structure - not your mission RESOURCES: Grab your ticket to CALLED TO LEAD, hosted by Kelly Roach and Sandi Glandt, on September 25th in South Florida: https://www.sandiglandt.com/called-to-lead  Download Kelly's FREE Reinvention Playbook: https://thekellyroach.com/reinvention  Follow Kelly on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellyroachofficial/  Follow Kelly on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kelly.roach.520/
