  • I Monetized My Hobby and Began To Hate It! I Wish I Knew this...
    May 27 2026

    If you’ve ever wondered whether you should turn your hobby into a business, this episode is for you. The truth is, not every hobby should be a business and sometimes monetizing something you love can completely change how it feels.In this episode, I share my personal experience of turning my love of sewing and designing children’s clothing into a business. What started as something relaxing and creative slowly became something tied to orders, deadlines, and customer expectations.That doesn’t mean turning a hobby into a business is always a bad idea. In many cases it can work really well. In this conversation, I share three questions you can ask yourself to help you think more clearly about whether your hobby could become a sustainable business or whether it might be better left as something you simply enjoy.If you're a family-focused entrepreneur or someone thinking about starting a business, this episode will help you think through the decision before you invest your time and energy.

  • Let’s Stop Calling Everything a Masterclass FFE Ep 12
    Feb 24 2026

    Somewhere along the way, we started calling 20–25 minute trainings “masterclasses.”And while short-form education can be incredibly valuable, the problem isn’t the length, it’s the promise.In this episode of the Family First Entrepreneur Podcast, we talk about why so many so-called master classes leave people feeling confused, behind, or like they must have missed something and why that’s not the learner’s fault.If you’re building alocal or online business where you teach, coach, or help others, this conversation matters. This isn’t about tearing down short content.It’s about building honest, intentional education that actually helps people move forward.If you care about clarity, integrity, and helping people take real next steps, this episode is for you.

  • Business Has Changed - FFE EP 11
    Jan 25 2026

    Running a business today doesn’t look the way it did 20 years ago and if you’ve felt that shift, you’re not imagining it.In this episode of the Family First Entrepreneur, I share a real moment that stopped me in my tracks: a longtime small business owner publicly acknowledging how the wedding industry has changed and how evolving felt scary, but necessary. That sparked a bigger conversation about how business itself has changed, how people discover and connect with brands now, and why doing everything the “right” way doesn’t always work anymore.This isn't a how-to guide, but a conversation about adapting to the current world.If you’re a business owner (whos has 10-20 years in or just starting out) who feels like what used to work… doesn’t this episode is for you.Topics we talk about:How business has changed over the last 20 yearsWhy working harder isn’t the answer anymoreHow people choose who to support nowThe shift in priorities after COVIDWhy evolution isn’t failure... it’s awareness.
