"Hoe val ik op?" Dat is eigenlijk de vraag achter veel zakelijke vragen die ik op mijn vragensticker kreeg. Niet vanuit ego - maar omdat je wil dat de juiste klanten jou kunnen vinden.In deze nieuwe aflevering breng ik marketing terug naar de basis: goed zijn in wat je doet, dat laten zien, op de juiste plek, op een manier die resoneert. Simpel. Maar simpel is niet hetzelfde als makkelijk.Ik deel ook wat er vaak misgaat (hallo, zelfsabotage), een offline marketingvoorbeeld uit Santa Teresa dat me weer liet zien hoe onderschat offline is, en waarom long form content het hart van mijn marketingmachine is.Wil je samen met mij aan de slag?

It's easy to assume the problem is pricing, the economy, social media algorithms, or increased competition.

Send Sherry a Text MessageYou said you wanted different.Not perfect. Different.In this episode of It's a Single Mom Thing, Sherry invites you to pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and revisit a simple but powerful question: What did you say was important?Somewhere between the breakthrough and the becoming, many of us get distracted. We get busy raising kids, paying bills, juggling responsibilities, and simply trying to survive. Before we know it, we've lost sight of the very things we once prayed for—peace, healing, freedom, stability, and a different future.Through relatable stories, a few laughs, and heartfelt reflection, Sherry explores why it's so easy to drift from our purpose and how to find our way back by following the breadcrumbs we left behind.If you've ever found yourself staring at the ceiling at 2 a.m. wondering how you got here—or if you've forgotten why you started your healing journey—this episode is for you.Because maybe the answer isn't found in a new strategy.Maybe it's found in remembering what you said mattered most.Join us as we revisit the prayer, the promise, and the purpose—and discover that the God who met you in that 2 a.m. moment is still sitting at the table.Support the showIt's a Single Mom Thing, Not the Single Thing That Stops You!

Send Sherry a Text MessageWhen life hurts, where do you turn?Food. Busyness. Social media. Serial dating. Avoiding the hard things. We all have our "fix"- something that helps numb the pain, distract us from reality, or make us feel better for a moment.But what happens when the fix isn't fixing anything?In this heartfelt and honest episode of It's a Single Mom Thing, Sherry explores the difference between temporary relief and lasting healing. Building on last week's episode, Healing Is an Assignment, she dives into the coping mechanisms we often reach for when life feels overwhelming and asks a powerful question:Can I trust God with the places I've been trying to manage myself?Through personal reflections, practical insights, and biblical encouragement, you'll discover why some fixes quietly become substitutes for God, why healing requires surrender, and how true freedom begins when we stop managing our pain and allow God to transform it.If you've ever found yourself running back to old patterns, struggling to let go, or wondering why healing feels so hard, this episode is for you.Because painkillers have a purpose.Band-aids have a purpose.But eventually the wound has to be cleaned if it's going to heal.You want God's best? Forget the rest. Let Him fix your fix.Resources Mentioned:

If you're building an online yoga business, legal protection is probably not the first thing on your mind. But as Chad Sonkin from Conscious Counsel explains, the question isn't whether you'll ever need it, it's whether you'll be prepared when you do. Chad has been working with yoga and wellness entrepreneurs for almost 10 years, and in this conversation he walks us through the legal essentials every online yoga teacher needs to have in place, from waivers and service agreements to privacy policies and media releases. We also get into some really practical questions. What's the difference between a waiver and a disclaimer? Do you need people to sign something before they access your online course? What do you actually need on your website? And what happens if someone steals your content or your brand name? If you've been putting the legal side of your business on the back burner, this one's for you.JOIN THE BLISSFUL BIZ HIVEWhat if your yoga wisdom was bringing in an extra $1k/month, even on the days you don't teach a single class?Inside the Blissful Biz Hive you'll build your Honey Flow: a simple, aligned system for growing your audience and selling digital offers without the overwhelm, tech confusion, or guesswork.What's inside (worth $2k+) ⬇️✅ Step-by-step trainings to build your Honey Flow✅ Done-for-you templates, email sequences and Canva layouts✅ Showit website template to make you shine online✅ Tech tutorials created with beginners in mind✅ 30-Day content plan so you always know what to post✅ Weekly calls with me & daily community supportCancel in 2 clicks. 14-Day Money Back Guarantee.With Susanne Rieker, who's spent the last 10 years helping 1,600+ yoga teachers build and grow their online business.
Send Sherry a Text MessageHealing Is Our AssignmentWhat if healing isn't standing in the way of your purpose?What if healing is part of your purpose?Many of us spend our lives asking God about our calling, our next step, our future, and our purpose while avoiding an assignment that's already sitting on our desk: healing.As single moms, we're often experts at surviving. We keep moving, keep functioning, keep showing up for everyone else. But surviving and healing are not the same thing.In this episode of It's A Single Mom Thing, Sherry explores what it means to accept healing as an assignment from God—not as punishment, but as preparation. Together, we'll discuss why we resist healing, how unhealed wounds can impact our relationships and children, and how God can redeem the very things He didn't cause.You'll discover:❤️ Why healing may be connected to your purpose❤️ How God prepares our hearts before He expands our influence❤️ The difference between surviving and healing❤️ How healing can impact two generations at a time❤️ Practical steps to begin your healing journey today❤️ Why God isn't withholding something good—He's holding something goodIf you've ever wondered why God keeps bringing you back to the same area, this episode may help you see that He's not trying to hurt you.He's trying to heal you.

Send Sherry a Text MessageAre you constantly trying to fix your child's problems…only to feel like you're missing something deeper?In this powerful and heartfelt episode of It's a Single Mom Thing, Sherry dives into one of the most common parenting struggles—knowing when to offer advice and when your child simply needs to be heard.“Fix It or Feel It: The Advice Trap in Parenting” unpacks the emotional disconnect that can happen when we jump into problem-solving mode too quickly—and how that can impact trust, communication, and connection with your kids.Through real-life parenting scenarios—from little kids feeling left out…to teens shutting down…to life-altering moments like bullying, fear, and unexpected situations—Sherry shares how to recognize what's really going on beneath the surface and respond in a way that builds lasting connection.This episode is especially powerful for single moms navigating both nurturing and leadership roles, offering insight into how to balance emotional support with guidance—without feeling like you have to be everything all at once.You'll learn: The difference between fixing vs. feeling in parenting moments How to help your child process emotions beneath the surface Why kids shut down when they feel dismissed or corrected too quickly How to respond when your child shares something serious or overwhelming How your response today can shape your child's future—and even future generations This episode also speaks to the heart of healing generational patterns, helping moms recognize the “hand-me-down” emotional habits they may be carrying—and how to break them with intention and grace.If you've ever wondered… “Why didn't that conversation go the way I thought it would?” “Why does my child shut down when I'm trying to help?” “Am I doing this right?”This episode will meet you right where you are.Because sometimes…your child doesn't need you to fix it.They just need you to feel it with them.

About two or three months after my first son was born, I looked at my husband and said: "I literally cannot do my business and motherhood at the same time." I meant it. I was overwhelmed, so in love with this tiny human, and I genuinely just wanted to be a mom. I did not want to think about my business at all.That was almost five years ago. Since then, I've had three kids in four and a half years, never had full-time childcare, and I'm still running the same business I started a decade ago. And I have so much I want to say about what that journey has actually looked like.This is the final episode in my 10 Years of Business series, and I wanted to close it with the most honest conversation I could have: what it actually looks like to build a business through motherhood. Not a highlight reel, and not a "how I do it all" episode (because I truly do not do it all). Just the real stuff that I think too often goes unsaid.I cover four ways motherhood has genuinely changed my business, including one I did not expect, and close with three pieces of advice for moms who are in the thick of it right now. Whether you're pregnant, newly postpartum, or a few years in and still figuring it out, I think this one will really resonate.Links mentioned in this episode:Read the full shownotes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/334Find more episodes on motherhood: https://elizabethmccravy.com/category/personal/motherhood/They bloom because of you: https://www.instagram.com/p/DWAJjSakxM5/?img_index=2Booked Out Designer course: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod Showit website builder: https://elizabethmccravy.com/showit Shop our Showit Website Templates: https://elizabethmccravy.com/shop Sign up for the Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psb Want the insider scoop?

When your income is tied to client work, it naturally fluctuates. Some seasons feel full and expansive, while others feel slower and uncertain. Over time, that inconsistency can start to feel stressful, especially when you're trying to plan ahead, support your family, or create more ease in your day-to-day life. This is where passive income can make a meaningful difference. Passive income doesn't just add another revenue stream. It helps create a more stable, supported business overall.Learn More About The Showit Shop SystemHosted by Kelly Zugay of With Grace and Gold® — The Brand It, Build It Podcast, a chart-topping small business marketing podcast, equips you to build and grow your creative small business with purpose and strategy.Podcast Show Notes: https://withgraceandgold.com/category/podcast/With Grace and Gold on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withgraceandgoldFree Resources from With Grace and Gold: https://www.withgraceandgold.com/freeHonored as Showit Designer of the Year, With Grace and Gold® has proudly served thousands of small businesses and creative founders worldwide through award-winning, elevated, purpose-driven brand and Showit web design since 2014.

It's getting that food to the people that need it." – Chef Sam WalkerHunger doesn't take a day off.For millions of children across the United States—and right here in Arkansas—food insecurity is a daily reality that shapes everything from how well a child sleeps to how clearly they think in school to how much hope they carry into their future.On this episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Chef Sam Walker, the chef and owner of Gaskins on Emma in downtown Springdale, to talk about one of the most urgent and quietly persistent challenges facing our communities: making sure every child has enough to eat.Sam's journey from growing up in Little Rock to building a restaurant rooted in hospitality and belonging has given him a front-row seat to both the power of food and the pain of its absence—and he's decided to do something about it.Chef Sam Walker is the kind of cook who understands that food is never just food.It is connection, dignity, memory, and care—all served on a single plate.In this conversation, Sam opens up about how his love for the culinary craft has always been inseparable from his love for people and why that philosophy has drawn him into the fight against childhood hunger in a deep and personal way.From the growing culinary renaissance reshaping Springdale and Northwest Arkansas into a legitimate food destination to the national movement rallying chefs, communities, and everyday people around the No Kid Hungry campaign, this episode is a reminder that the most powerful thing a community can do is feed its children—and that the people leading that charge are often the ones standing behind the stove.Key Takeaways:Community Through Food: Bringing people together around the table builds lasting connections and support for those in need.Tackling Food Insecurity: Northwest Arkansas faces real challenges, but people in the region are stepping up to help.Chef's Night for No Kid Hungry: The event features 20 chefs, aiming to raise $50,000 to ensure kids don't go hungry.Springdale's Culinary Boom: Springdale is now recognized as a hub for outstanding food, thanks to chefs and entrepreneurs committed to growth.Multiple Ways to Help: Whether you buy a ticket, sponsor, or donate, you can be a part of this movement to end child hunger.All this and more on this episode of the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Chef's Night for No Kid Hungry – April 26 at the Jones Center, SpringdaleChef Cycle No Kid Hungry: Learn more, donate, or sponsor rides and events Chef Cycle 2026Chef Sam Walker on InstagramChef Sam Walker on LinkedInGaskins on Emma (Springdale's food corridor anchor)Hive at Bentonville – Raised $80,000+ for No Kid HungryMentioned chefs from out of town: Ted Cizma (California), Vinnie Cimino (Ohio), Joe Flamm (Chicago), Rebecca Masson (Texas), Lambert Givens (Boston)Sponsor, donate, or attend via links in the show notes or by emailing hello@iamnorthwestarkansas.com for direct info and connectionsThis episode is sponsored by*FindItNWA.com Try ONBoardNWA.com Today!*Note: some of the resources mentioned may be affiliate links.

Let the showdown begin!About Syd MillevoiRaised in a lively Italian household with her mom, uncle, grandparents and brothers, Syd Millevoi never had a quiet moment. Her mother, a former opera singer, became her first vocal coach, helping Syd channel that chaos into art. By 11, she was writing songs, and by her teens was performing anywhere that had a mic. After studying music business and releasing her debut EP, "Everything I Couldn't Say," Syd found her voice as both a singer and songwriter. When she's not teaching or working toward her master's degree in vocal performance, she's fronting a wedding band that performs across the East Coast and New York. Inspired by her mother's legacy and her own determination, she hopes "The Voice" will be the stage that turns years of hard work into a Jbreakthrough moment.https://www.nbc.com/the-voiceBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.

Ten years in business means a lot of lessons learned but it also means a lot of moments I'll never forget. In this episode, I'm taking you on a personal trip down memory lane through 14 of my biggest pinch-me moments from the last decade. Some of these I've never talked about publicly before. Some of them you may have witnessed in real time if you've been a longtime listener. And some of them still make me emotional to this day.From the first time I made a sale while I was sleeping, to finding out I was pregnant in a hotel room two hours before walking on stage, to a certain billionaire posting a photo with one of my coffee mugs... these are the moments that made me stop and think, is this real life? I'm also sharing some that are quieter and more personal, including what I'd consider the biggest pinch-me moment of all, which is happening right now in this season of my life.This episode is part of my ongoing 10-year anniversary series, so if you haven't listened to the episodes before this one, I'd encourage you to go back and catch up. And next week, I'll be wrapping up the series with an episode all about motherhood and business (something I touched on a lot in this one).Links mentioned in this episode:Episode 114 Behind the Scenes of My Multiple Five-Figure Launch (the Booked Out Designer beta launch): https://elizabethmccravy.com/114Real estate investing episodes: 134, 135, 136, 197 and 198Booked Out Designer course: elizabethmccravy.com/bod Showit website builder: https://elizabethmccravy.com/showit Shop our Showit Website Templates: https://elizabethmccravy.com/shop Sign up for the Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psb Want the insider scoop?

In this episode, Molly and business attorney Bill Burke expose why law firm owners keep making costly legal mistakes — ignoring contracts, misclassifying employees, and skipping proper structure. The firms winning right now aren't guessing. They're protecting. Because vague agreements, outdated documents, and handshake deals will cost you more than you think. If you're ready to protect your firm, reduce risk, and create clarity, this is your wake-up call. Key Takeaways: Verbal agreements and outdated templates don't protect your firm. If expectations aren't clearly defined, you're inviting disputes, unpaid work, and legal risk. Contracts define roles, responsibilities, payments, and outcomes. If it's vague, it will be challenged—precision prevents conflict. What worked when you started won't support your growth. Outdated agreements and structures create unnecessary exposure. Waiting until something breaks is the most expensive way to run your firm. Proactive legal protection is what keeps you profitable, protected, and in control. Quote for the Show: "It's not just about protecting your rights. It's about each party understanding what their legal obligations are." - Bill Burke Links: Website: https://hiringandempowering.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hiringandempowering Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiringandempowering LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/hiring&empoweringsolutions/ The Law Firm Admin Bootcamp + Academy™ : https://www.lawfirmadminbootcamp.com/ Get Fix My Boss Book: https://amzn.to/3PCeEhk Ways to Tune In: Amazon Music - https://www.amazon.com/Hiring-and-Empowering-Solutions/dp/B08JJSLJ7N Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hiring-and-empowering-solutions/id1460184599 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3oIfsDDnEDDkcumTCygHDH Stitcher - https://www.stitcher.com/show/hiring-and-empowering-solutions YouTube - https://youtu.be/UBiZcwCNxVw
Ten years ago, I launched my first website, declared myself a business owner, and had absolutely no idea what I was getting myself into. In this episode, I'm sharing the seven things I wish I could go back and tell myself on day one (the lessons I learned the hard way so you don't have to).These are the things that don't always get talked about in the online business world but absolutely should be. I'm getting into the real, unglamorous side of running a business: the mindset shifts, the money stuff, the client situations, and the behind-the-scenes work that never makes it to anyone's Instagram feed.I'm also sharing my absolute favorite tip of all, which I saved for last, that I think might be the most fun one too.If you're just starting out, a few years in, or even a decade deep like me, I think there's something in this episode for you. Listen in, and let me know which one hits home.Links mentioned: Read the full shownotes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/332 Grab my end of month financial guide (for free): https://elizabethmccravy.com/profitShop our Showit Website Templates: https://elizabethmccravy.com/shop Join me inside Booked Out Designer: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod Sign up for the Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psb Want the insider scoop?

This week I'm back with part two of my 10-year business reflection series. In episode 330, I shared the first five lessons I've learned after a decade of running my business, and today I'm continuing the list with five more things that have shaped the way I think about entrepreneurship.Reaching 10 years in business has made me reflect on just how much life, and business, can change over time. When I started, I was newly married, working constantly, and figuring things out as I went. My business looked completely different back then. Now I'm running it in a totally different season of life as a mom of three young kids, with different priorities, different capacity, and honestly a different perspective on what success even means.One of the biggest themes for me lately has been remembering that your business doesn't have to look the same forever. As your life changes, your business can (and should) change too. If you haven't listened to part one yet, be sure to go back and check out episode 330 where I share the first five lessons from my first decade in business.Links Mentioned:Read the full shownotes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/331 Shop our Showit Website Templates: https://elizabethmccravy.com/shop Join me inside Booked Out Designer: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod Sign up for the Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psb Want the insider scoop?

Trust is one of the most important factors in how someone experiences your brand. Before someone fills out an inquiry form, schedules a a consultation, or makes a purchase, they're quietly asking themselves one question: Do I trust this business?The interesting thing is that people often answer that question very quickly — sometimes within just a few seconds of visiting a website or seeing a brand online for the first time.Hosted by Kelly Zugay of With Grace and Gold® — The Brand It, Build It Podcast, a chart-topping small business marketing podcast, equips you to build and grow your creative small business with purpose and strategy.Podcast Show Notes: https://withgraceandgold.com/category/podcast/With Grace and Gold on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withgraceandgoldFree Resources from With Grace and Gold: https://www.withgraceandgold.com/freeHonored as Showit Designer of the Year, With Grace and Gold® has proudly served thousands of small businesses and creative founders worldwide through award-winning, elevated, purpose-driven brand and Showit web design since 2014.

This month, I'm celebrating 10 years in business with a special series, and I could not be more excited to share it with you.In this episode, I'm kicking things off with the first five lessons I've learned across a decade of running a business, generating multiple millions of dollars in revenue, raising three kids, and navigating all the messy, beautiful in-between.
