season 3, Featuring conversations Such as:
the roi of radical rest (not another self care podcast)
Featuring Jordan Gill, AnnMarie Rose, Dr. Catrina Mitchum, Regyna Curtis, and Sarah K. Heeter
Most business models are designed as if leaders are machines that never need accommodation, seasonal adjustments, or basic human recovery time. But what if the most radical thing you could do for your business is build rest into the foundation?
when marketing becomes manipulation
Featuring Fope Nkwocha, Samantha Fackler, Yuval Ackerman, and Sarah K. Heeter
If you've ever felt uncomfortable with a marketing tactic but weren't sure why, this episode will help you trust your gut and build a business that actually serves people.
Data Bias, Intuition, and Data-Driven Decision Making
Featuring Misa Bacon, Kelsey Silver, Emily Adams, Mckayla Spencer, and Sarah K. Heeter
American capitalism was built on racial exploitation, from the enslavement of Black people to institutionalized discrimination and its structural impact on our nation's economic and legal systems. This foundation didn't disappear when we moved to digital spreadsheets and analytics dashboards. It evolved.
Policy Impacting Small Business Today
Featuring Kirsten Zeigler, Lin Sok, Candy Baracat-Donovan, and Sarah K. Heeter
Apolitical business is a myth. Especially in times like these. Policy impacts every element of running a small business. But, it can also be intimidating and overwhelming. So today's episode is all about policy that impacts us as small business owners.
Your Business is Inaccessible (Let's Fix That)
Featuring Erin Perkins, Erika Stanley, Ali Cameron, Michelle Beauchamp, Lindsay Hyatt, and Sarah K. Heeter
Honestly, when you hear about the diversity of accessibility needs, it can feel overwhelming and expensive—it's tempting to just keep doing what you've always done. But this roundtable pushes us to think about accessibility completely differently, and these guests share practical ways that all businesses, no matter the size, can do better without starting from scratch.
When Productivity Becomes Toxic
Featuring Taina Brown, Regyna Curtis, Jacki Hayes, Cheryl Ham, and Sarah K. Heeter
Calling all workaholics, this one is for you. If you a little bit love working around the clock and think your work is one of the most fun parts of your life, let me just say, you've found your people. But we all know hustle culture and burnout are real - and that at some point, productivity becomes toxic.
