Listen "Rewriting the Rules: Creating a Podcast (and Life) That Feels Aligned"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to a brand-new season of Grit to Glow! In this kickoff episode, I’m sharing what it really looks like to build something that aligns with your life, not the expectations of others. This isn’t about perfection or polished production. It’s about pursuing what feels true to you. I’ll talk about why I’m choosing to keep this podcast seasonal, how I’m embracing imperfection, and what it means to build a brand that fits your real life as a busy mama and entrepreneur.
Get ready to release the pressure, drop the “shoulds,” and feel empowered to go after what you want — on your own terms.
In This Episode, We Cover:
The importance of creating a brand and business that fits your life season
Why authenticity matters more than editing or perfection in your podcast and business
How to give yourself permission to break traditional rules of marketing and structure
The real reason I’m making Grit to Glow a seasonal show and what that means for you
How to honor motherhood, creativity, and business without guilt or burnout
Key Takeaways:
You don’t need to follow every “rule” to succeed — alignment beats algorithm every time.
Your authenticity is your magnet. Your people want you — not a polished version of you.
It’s okay to pause. You can take breaks, create seasonally, and still grow something beautiful.
Quote of the Episode:
“You don’t have to follow someone else’s rules. Drop them, rewrite them today, and go make some magic — because that’s where the glow exists.”
