Hang Out & Say Hi!
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: Welcome
back to another episode of the
2
00:00:02,989 --> 00:00:05,329
Deeply Rooted Business Podcast.
3
00:00:05,581 --> 00:00:09,101
Today is the season recap.
4
00:00:09,101 --> 00:00:12,681
So Jess and I are going to be
combing through some of our
5
00:00:12,681 --> 00:00:14,241
business goals for the podcast.
6
00:00:14,911 --> 00:00:18,821
We'll do a little fun exercise
called start, stop, continue, and
7
00:00:18,821 --> 00:00:22,571
we'll kind of go through just a
little bit of how we felt about
8
00:00:22,581 --> 00:00:26,891
the actual season and what we're
feeling about taking forward with us.
9
00:00:27,247 --> 00:00:27,937
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: Yeah.
10
00:00:27,937 --> 00:00:31,517
As I'm pulling up our analytics, which
we really don't focus on too much.
11
00:00:31,567 --> 00:00:34,247
I think we're more of like,
do we like doing this?
12
00:00:34,247 --> 00:00:38,097
Does it give us a talk about things we
like to talk about and give us some, it
13
00:00:38,097 --> 00:00:39,927
does give us good content on the reg.
14
00:00:39,977 --> 00:00:41,767
So definitely worth that way.
15
00:00:41,767 --> 00:00:44,557
Yeah, but debriefing season three already.
16
00:00:44,557 --> 00:00:46,657
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615:
something really funny to add in.
17
00:00:46,657 --> 00:00:51,697
This is a little behind the scenes sneak
peek is that the last half of the season
18
00:00:51,697 --> 00:00:54,464
was actually not the original plan.
19
00:00:54,464 --> 00:00:58,904
Jess and I had a meeting probably about
four, three weeks ago or something and
20
00:00:58,904 --> 00:01:00,660
we said, Hmm, are you feeling these?
21
00:01:00,660 --> 00:01:01,280
Podcast titles.
22
00:01:01,740 --> 00:01:02,350
Are you feeling this?
23
00:01:02,660 --> 00:01:03,760
how do we want to shift these?
24
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,310
And we actually did a full shift
and re like middle of the season
25
00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:11,720
planning session to make it a little
bit more aligned with what the actual
26
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,017
industry is vibing with right now.
27
00:01:14,027 --> 00:01:16,880
So I think that was kind of
funny that not the original plan,
28
00:01:16,890 --> 00:01:18,420
but can we are here to pivot?
29
00:01:18,661 --> 00:01:20,861
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: We
had a plan and we're ahead.
30
00:01:20,871 --> 00:01:24,271
We're gonna recording this a couple of
weeks ahead of when this is going to
31
00:01:24,271 --> 00:01:28,101
come out and that makes me feel good
because I like to be ahead on things.
32
00:01:28,185 --> 00:01:31,695
We said third season, I think
we're up to like 35 episodes now or
33
00:01:31,695 --> 00:01:34,185
something like that, which is crazy.
34
00:01:34,438 --> 00:01:36,558
There's really no place where I can
find a number really quickly because
35
00:01:36,558 --> 00:01:39,728
sometimes we do 10, 10 episodes
a season, sometimes we do 12.
36
00:01:39,728 --> 00:01:42,808
But anyway, we were even outlining it the
other day and Rachel and I were both in
37
00:01:42,808 --> 00:01:44,648
our Notion account, editing the episode.
38
00:01:44,648 --> 00:01:47,108
And she's like, it's crazy that
we can just do this together
39
00:01:47,108 --> 00:01:48,438
and not even talk about it.
40
00:01:48,438 --> 00:01:51,488
Cause I was plugging in what I wanted
to say and she was plugging in what
41
00:01:51,488 --> 00:01:55,608
She needed to say and that's my
overall feeling with the podcast is
42
00:01:55,608 --> 00:02:00,378
it's gotten out of that Uncomfortable
takes forever to do everything trying
43
00:02:00,378 --> 00:02:05,358
to figure out the platform where it's
just like a routine We show up we Talk
44
00:02:05,358 --> 00:02:07,338
we Get everything published out there.
45
00:02:07,338 --> 00:02:09,768
There's not really a lot of
hiccups or anything like that.
46
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,561
So it just feels good in comparisons.
47
00:02:11,561 --> 00:02:14,411
Like this week, I've had a YouTube
channel for forever, but I'm
48
00:02:14,411 --> 00:02:17,131
actually have a YouTube strategy
now that I'm implementing.
49
00:02:17,131 --> 00:02:18,091
And it was really hard.
50
00:02:18,091 --> 00:02:23,611
It took me five hours to record five
minute videos and it took me forever to
51
00:02:23,611 --> 00:02:27,671
record everything you would think that
because we get on a podcast and talk that
52
00:02:27,671 --> 00:02:31,841
you can do that on YouTube, but that's
like really not how YouTube videos work.
53
00:02:31,851 --> 00:02:33,791
You have to be a little bit more scripted.
54
00:02:33,856 --> 00:02:35,226
And it was hard and it sucked.
55
00:02:35,226 --> 00:02:38,246
And it was just a reminder to
me with starting anything new.
56
00:02:38,246 --> 00:02:41,126
It's always going to be
hard and suck the first time,
57
00:02:41,272 --> 00:02:42,802
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615:
My business mentor always
58
00:02:42,802 --> 00:02:44,902
says it's not hard, it's new.
59
00:02:44,902 --> 00:02:46,502
And it's a reframe of that.
60
00:02:46,502 --> 00:02:50,252
because in that beginning stage of
just like you not knowing, we're
61
00:02:50,252 --> 00:02:52,702
not doing anything really different.
62
00:02:52,852 --> 00:02:56,622
Now in the podcast than what
we were doing in the beginning.
63
00:02:56,664 --> 00:03:00,464
Which took a lot more time and
felt a little less clear now.
64
00:03:00,464 --> 00:03:04,584
It just flows in such an
effortless way that it's less new.
65
00:03:04,584 --> 00:03:06,804
it's getting into that fun stage.
66
00:03:06,804 --> 00:03:11,284
So I'm very excited because I think even
though we had, maybe we do some rerecords
67
00:03:11,284 --> 00:03:15,334
of some of the original episodes, because
I think we can rift a little bit better
68
00:03:15,334 --> 00:03:17,584
now and provide a little bit more context.
69
00:03:17,860 --> 00:03:18,630
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: Yeah, for sure.
70
00:03:18,650 --> 00:03:22,140
But just reminded me of like a starting
out when I was doing that this week.
71
00:03:22,140 --> 00:03:22,890
I'm like, this sucks.
72
00:03:22,900 --> 00:03:24,630
By the time I got done recording,
I was like, I don't want to
73
00:03:24,630 --> 00:03:25,940
look at any of these videos.
74
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,640
I never want to do that again, but
I put it on a calendar, another
75
00:03:29,640 --> 00:03:30,890
recording date next month.
76
00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:32,520
So I could stay consistent with it.
77
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:32,940
But.
78
00:03:32,940 --> 00:03:35,740
Yeah, it was a lot of work and
very energetically draining.
79
00:03:35,740 --> 00:03:37,890
I didn't want to do anything
for the rest of the day.
80
00:03:37,940 --> 00:03:40,510
So if that's just a little motivation,
if you're starting anything
81
00:03:40,510 --> 00:03:42,273
new, let's get into last season.
82
00:03:42,273 --> 00:03:46,063
So we're just gonna go through the things
that we said that we wanted to start this
83
00:03:46,073 --> 00:03:48,942
season, what we did and how it's going.
84
00:03:48,942 --> 00:03:51,783
So the first thing that we
wanted to start was Instagram
85
00:03:51,783 --> 00:03:53,563
carousels, which we really haven't,
86
00:03:53,591 --> 00:03:54,932
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615:
We got the template made.
87
00:03:55,031 --> 00:03:59,562
It's one of those things that still
takes a lot of time to comb through
88
00:03:59,562 --> 00:04:01,652
the content that we're doing.
89
00:04:01,705 --> 00:04:05,225
But we've noticed based off
of where our engagement is
90
00:04:05,225 --> 00:04:07,212
happening most, it's just not.
91
00:04:07,212 --> 00:04:11,962
On Instagram, it's in YouTube
shorts, it's on Tik TOK and really
92
00:04:11,972 --> 00:04:14,242
kind of embracing those areas.
93
00:04:14,252 --> 00:04:17,909
This fell to, not as
a much of a priority.
94
00:04:17,988 --> 00:04:21,499
So if you listen to last episode
where we were talking about business
95
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:24,979
priorities, this was one that I
think we could have spent a lot of
96
00:04:24,999 --> 00:04:28,289
time on, but I don't think it would
have been the best use of our time.
97
00:04:28,413 --> 00:04:30,043
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: Yeah, and
for the next one too, I think there's
98
00:04:30,043 --> 00:04:33,423
a theme going here is that we said we
wanted to start doing guest episodes.
99
00:04:33,463 --> 00:04:37,203
Both of these things didn't happen
for a reason that I always harp
100
00:04:37,203 --> 00:04:38,533
on that things don't happen.
101
00:04:38,533 --> 00:04:41,673
It's because we didn't have a project
or a process set up to get these.
102
00:04:41,673 --> 00:04:44,093
In motion, it was like, okay,
we want to do carousels.
103
00:04:44,093 --> 00:04:45,443
And okay, I got a carousel done.
104
00:04:45,443 --> 00:04:47,623
And then it's like, there's no process.
105
00:04:47,623 --> 00:04:50,873
Like, how do we go through
and pull that stuff?
106
00:04:50,903 --> 00:04:54,236
So I think that's why we like
intentionally or maybe not intentionally,
107
00:04:54,236 --> 00:04:57,826
but take these breaks in between the
seasons is so that we can go back
108
00:04:57,826 --> 00:04:59,526
in and shore up the operations.
109
00:04:59,546 --> 00:05:00,436
So like we have the carousel.
110
00:05:01,036 --> 00:05:03,986
I just need to write a process
for my VA to pull like what to
111
00:05:03,986 --> 00:05:06,066
pull out to put in that carousel.
112
00:05:06,130 --> 00:05:09,316
Because I kind of dumped a task on her
to do it and it didn't turn out right.
113
00:05:09,316 --> 00:05:12,256
And that's not her fault because
I didn't actually delegate and
114
00:05:12,256 --> 00:05:14,926
provide the specific instructions
and process to get it to the
115
00:05:14,926 --> 00:05:16,676
outcome that I wanted it to come in.
116
00:05:16,726 --> 00:05:19,686
So that'll be fixed guest episodes.
117
00:05:19,686 --> 00:05:22,646
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: I literally
just made a note to send the link out
118
00:05:22,646 --> 00:05:27,633
because we have people who are excited
to be a part of the, podcast as a guest.
119
00:05:27,736 --> 00:05:32,506
Jess has set up this incredible system
to capture all of that information.
120
00:05:32,506 --> 00:05:33,366
I just need to do it.
121
00:05:33,426 --> 00:05:34,646
So put a note here.
122
00:05:34,656 --> 00:05:37,396
I'm not removing this paper
from my desk until I do it,
123
00:05:38,202 --> 00:05:40,682
.
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: Yeah, one of our start things for next could be , maybe
124
00:05:40,682 --> 00:05:43,702
during one of our Monday meetings, we
come up with a list of people we want
125
00:05:43,702 --> 00:05:47,232
to invite and just send out pitches to
them real quick or something like that.
126
00:05:47,292 --> 00:05:50,002
I feel like that's where it's like,
you have to finish connecting the dots.
127
00:05:50,042 --> 00:05:50,752
And sometimes.
128
00:05:50,752 --> 00:05:51,682
It just doesn't happen.
129
00:05:51,682 --> 00:05:53,512
And then that's why your things
don't happen, which is why
130
00:05:53,512 --> 00:05:54,822
reflection is really important.
131
00:05:54,832 --> 00:05:57,392
Because if we would never go back
and reflect on these things, we
132
00:05:57,392 --> 00:06:00,152
would have just kept creating new
things that we didn't implement.
133
00:06:00,152 --> 00:06:02,472
And now we can actually go back
and get those things tied up.
134
00:06:02,606 --> 00:06:06,516
So we said we wanted to get
more active on social accounts.
135
00:06:06,566 --> 00:06:08,146
I think we were more active for sure.
136
00:06:08,146 --> 00:06:11,646
We definitely were more active posting . I
was really good at the beginning of the
137
00:06:11,646 --> 00:06:15,816
season of sharing on my own personal
stories, like here's what's happening.
138
00:06:15,816 --> 00:06:17,526
But I think we have room for improvement,
139
00:06:17,526 --> 00:06:19,636
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: definitely
have a lot of room for improvement there.
140
00:06:19,636 --> 00:06:23,966
it's one of those things that, is it a big
goal for us to grow the podcast and more
141
00:06:23,966 --> 00:06:25,636
people can listen to what we're saying?
142
00:06:25,666 --> 00:06:26,116
Yes.
143
00:06:26,116 --> 00:06:30,166
But I think in form of engagement,
we've had a lot of great feedback
144
00:06:30,166 --> 00:06:32,076
just come to us organically.
145
00:06:32,162 --> 00:06:33,602
And we're grateful for that.
146
00:06:33,622 --> 00:06:36,979
So if you are listening and you
do love the podcast, Reach out
147

Jess, DM me we love to hear it.
148
00:06:40,806 --> 00:06:43,746
It really does keep us moving
in a direction that is like
149
00:06:43,746 --> 00:06:45,756
validation, like love this.
150
00:06:45,826 --> 00:06:50,216
But it's not the, like to create
polls or to create those things like
151
00:06:50,246 --> 00:06:51,646
that kind of fell to the boy side.
152
00:06:51,702 --> 00:06:53,492
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: if we're
going to do starts for next season, but
153
00:06:53,492 --> 00:06:58,522
I think one of my starts is definitely
going to be outsourcing the podcast.
154
00:06:58,532 --> 00:07:01,772
, Editing and publishing
piece, because I've got that.
155
00:07:01,802 --> 00:07:06,612
So systemized now where I have step
by step, like, this is what I click.
156
00:07:06,612 --> 00:07:07,342
This is what I do.
157
00:07:07,382 --> 00:07:07,982
This is what I do.
158
00:07:07,982 --> 00:07:09,952
I know it takes me an
hour and a half to do it.
159
00:07:09,972 --> 00:07:13,922
So I know I can write out that process
and give it to a VA and it will take
160
00:07:13,922 --> 00:07:17,152
them hopefully an hour and a half to do
it probably a little longer the first
161
00:07:17,152 --> 00:07:20,272
time, cause I've been doing it for a
little bit, but I, I feel I'm ready to
162
00:07:20,272 --> 00:07:23,582
let that go because just, I need that
other hour and a half in my business
163
00:07:23,592 --> 00:07:25,372
to maybe do some of these other things.
164
00:07:25,465 --> 00:07:28,995
Another thing that I really want to start
doing is like, we're very good about
165
00:07:28,995 --> 00:07:33,205
laying out our topics beforehand, but
I've been on an SEO learning journey.
166
00:07:33,225 --> 00:07:36,865
And have a bunch of tools in my tool
belt now to be able to make sure that
167
00:07:36,865 --> 00:07:40,605
we're picking the right keywords and
that we're working those into our titles.
168
00:07:40,665 --> 00:07:42,745
I think the way that our episodes,
and I don't want to become too
169
00:07:42,745 --> 00:07:45,455
scripted, but I think the way that our
episodes come out right now is like.
170
00:07:45,455 --> 00:07:48,355
I'm trying to like back into an
SEO keyword, but just getting
171
00:07:48,355 --> 00:07:49,635
a little more strategic.
172
00:07:49,635 --> 00:07:51,855
And that will also help
validate our topics too.
173
00:07:51,855 --> 00:07:54,435
Because if we can't find that people
are searching for something that we
174
00:07:54,435 --> 00:07:57,515
want to talk about, then maybe we're
the only ones that are interested in it.
175
00:07:57,515 --> 00:08:00,755
Or maybe there's a different verbiage
that we can use to be interested in it.
176
00:08:00,785 --> 00:08:06,735
So using keyword research with our episode
planning for next quarter is on my list.
177
00:08:06,735 --> 00:08:09,125
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: Yeah,
Jess learned SEO and learning
178
00:08:09,125 --> 00:08:10,755
the whole YouTube strategy.
179
00:08:10,755 --> 00:08:16,285
I am totally just riding the
coattails here I have always wanted
180
00:08:16,285 --> 00:08:17,915
to focus on those two things.
181
00:08:18,012 --> 00:08:20,422
I've just never
prioritized it in my brain.
182
00:08:20,422 --> 00:08:24,162
But Jess is in full on learning
mode and we are loving that.
183
00:08:24,162 --> 00:08:25,682
So keep going.
184
00:08:27,228 --> 00:08:29,768
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: not in fully,
my new YouTube channel is going to be
185
00:08:29,768 --> 00:08:31,248
like, here's what I learned this week.
186
00:08:31,258 --> 00:08:34,918
And it's just going to be an episode
of like downloading everything.
187
00:08:34,928 --> 00:08:38,908
Cause I am, I love to learn
at the expense of my business.
188
00:08:38,928 --> 00:08:42,548
Like how we talked in the last episode
is like a glass plate or a paper plate.
189
00:08:42,558 --> 00:08:46,208
And usually my paper plate is learning
and I will let my glass break.
190
00:08:46,208 --> 00:08:46,878
They won't break.
191
00:08:46,908 --> 00:08:51,938
They'll get a little shaky and really
close to the ground before like,
192
00:08:51,938 --> 00:08:54,008
Oh, I need to stop learning and
actually do the things that make
193
00:08:54,008 --> 00:08:55,178
me money in my business right now.
194
00:08:55,728 --> 00:08:56,108
Okay.
195
00:08:56,208 --> 00:08:58,748
So anything we want to stop doing?
196
00:08:59,002 --> 00:09:02,202
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: So we
stopped managing the publishing and the
197
00:09:02,212 --> 00:09:04,812
promoting of the videos and everything.
198
00:09:04,812 --> 00:09:06,282
So I've handed that off.
199
00:09:06,282 --> 00:09:09,522
I still have the strategic part of
picking the videos out, but I'm no
200
00:09:09,522 --> 00:09:11,982
longer scheduling and in the weeds of it.
201
00:09:12,302 --> 00:09:16,482
So those time consuming tasks of actually
getting it onto the platform and doing all
202
00:09:16,482 --> 00:09:21,342
of that, not on my list anymore, because
I, Have such a neurodivergent brand
203
00:09:21,342 --> 00:09:23,762
that I will forget and just not do it.
204
00:09:23,852 --> 00:09:25,372
So that's handed off.
205
00:09:25,422 --> 00:09:27,032
I'm super, super proud of that.
206
00:09:27,032 --> 00:09:30,412
One of my quarterly goals was
to hire a new marketing VA.
207
00:09:30,412 --> 00:09:31,642
Check done.
208
00:09:31,642 --> 00:09:32,832
She's fabulous.
209
00:09:32,832 --> 00:09:33,542
So yeah.
210
00:09:33,542 --> 00:09:34,182
What about you?
211
00:09:34,268 --> 00:09:36,588
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: So mine
was just stop publishing the task.
212
00:09:36,588 --> 00:09:37,308
That's what I'm going to do.
213
00:09:37,308 --> 00:09:39,468
I'm trying to think if there's
anything else I want to stop doing
214
00:09:39,468 --> 00:09:42,918
now I mean, the only thing I do for
the podcast is show up and publish,
215
00:09:42,918 --> 00:09:44,258
but I'm just going to stop publishing.
216
00:09:44,618 --> 00:09:45,698
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615:
Stop showing up.
217
00:09:47,364 --> 00:09:50,374
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: also stop
ghosting my email list and at least
218
00:09:50,374 --> 00:09:52,654
just send them my podcast episodes
219
00:09:52,937 --> 00:09:54,887
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: I literally
was thinking about that the other day.
220
00:09:54,927 --> 00:09:58,037
Cause I was trying to really
be strategic with my newsletters
221
00:09:58,067 --> 00:09:59,217
to sell the new product.
222
00:09:59,217 --> 00:10:02,947
But I was like, but honestly so
much of this content is so good
223
00:10:02,947 --> 00:10:04,237
that it just needs to go to.
224
00:10:04,327 --> 00:10:07,207
So, yeah, no other things
that I want to stop doing.
225
00:10:07,418 --> 00:10:08,368
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615:
So then continue.
226
00:10:08,398 --> 00:10:11,608
We love our co working
meetings on Mondays.
227
00:10:11,648 --> 00:10:12,678
Do we have them every Monday?
228
00:10:12,678 --> 00:10:12,978
No.
229
00:10:12,978 --> 00:10:16,038
Do we have them enough that it makes our
life easier when we sit down to record?
230
00:10:16,418 --> 00:10:16,918
Yes.
231
00:10:17,458 --> 00:10:19,458
We love our strategic planning meetings.
232
00:10:19,458 --> 00:10:23,608
We want to get even more strategic
with our strategic planning meetings.
233
00:10:23,698 --> 00:10:26,738
I think Rachel could go deep into
this but our scripting strategy,
234
00:10:26,788 --> 00:10:28,288
. maybe y'all notice, let us know.
235
00:10:28,298 --> 00:10:29,558
Do we sound too scripted now?
236
00:10:29,558 --> 00:10:32,438
Do we sound more cohesive and like
we actually have a plan of what we're
237
00:10:32,438 --> 00:10:36,228
talking about and not just like free
it's like going to say freelancing
238
00:10:36,228 --> 00:10:40,569
it, but free, whatever it is.
239
00:10:40,569 --> 00:10:44,299
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: it's not
so much of a super scripted strategy.
240
00:10:44,299 --> 00:10:48,319
We really just framework and
outline and for both of us, put
241
00:10:48,329 --> 00:10:52,425
little marks of saying, like,
this is something we can rift on.
242
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:55,345
Oh, this isn't really
something we want to rift on.
243
00:10:55,355 --> 00:10:57,345
Here's a little bit more structure there.
244
00:10:57,415 --> 00:11:02,305
So we're very intentional with how our
brains work in that scripting process.
245
00:11:02,305 --> 00:11:02,605
So that.
246
00:11:02,605 --> 00:11:07,805
Come time to record the episode, even
if we've had the busiest of days or
247
00:11:07,805 --> 00:11:12,425
the busiest of weeks and our brains
are just not participating, we at least
248
00:11:12,435 --> 00:11:17,205
then have a structure that can give and
still deliver a really good episode.
249
00:11:17,255 --> 00:11:18,695
So I loved that.
250
00:11:18,695 --> 00:11:22,475
Effective scripting strategy and
especially now because I think if it was
251
00:11:22,475 --> 00:11:26,055
in this episode where Jess and I were
saying we can work at the same exact time
252
00:11:26,055 --> 00:11:31,695
on our co workings to really flesh out a
really solid outline pretty effectively
253
00:11:31,695 --> 00:11:34,745
we're like oh that sounds great oh don't
love that like oh great great great
254
00:11:34,995 --> 00:11:38,655
and Jess is doing her part I'm doing
our part and they just connect so well
255
00:11:38,655 --> 00:11:40,985
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: Well, and I
think another really cool side effect
256
00:11:40,985 --> 00:11:44,335
of scripting this way is , obviously
Rachel and I have both done a lot of
257
00:11:44,335 --> 00:11:48,235
learning and have a lot of experience,
but it's actually being able to put
258
00:11:48,235 --> 00:11:53,645
how I approach a certain subject into a
tangible framework into like my, well, I
259
00:11:53,645 --> 00:11:56,295
guess it's our, our tangible framework.
260
00:11:56,305 --> 00:11:58,055
So a lot, we'll be like, Oh,
we're going to approach this
261
00:11:58,055 --> 00:11:59,195
from start, stop, continue.
262
00:11:59,195 --> 00:12:03,345
Or we're going to approach this from
starting stretching and scaling.
263
00:12:03,345 --> 00:12:06,305
We have , Different frameworks
that we go back to over and over
264
00:12:06,305 --> 00:12:10,005
again of how we approach different
issues that we're trying to help
265
00:12:10,005 --> 00:12:11,565
people solve in their business.
266
00:12:11,565 --> 00:12:15,145
And overall boosted my confidence
that I actually know what I'm
267
00:12:15,155 --> 00:12:16,665
talking about because I can.
268
00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:19,000
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: I think
it's been so much fun to show off
269
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,140
our brain power and things like that.
270
00:12:21,140 --> 00:12:23,280
It's definitely, I completely
agree, definitely given me
271
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,590
more confidence as well.
272
00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:26,680
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: it says
we outlined all the episodes before
273
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:28,330
the season starts, but maybe we did.
274
00:12:28,330 --> 00:12:31,370
And then we just like threw everything in
the trash can at least outlined what we
275
00:12:31,380 --> 00:12:35,380
wanted to talk about in each episode and
then we threw everything in the trash can
276
00:12:35,380 --> 00:12:38,280
and was able, not everything, but a lot
of the episodes in the trash can and was
277
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:43,267
able to pivot to things that were more
relevant to the current business landscape
278
00:12:43,267 --> 00:12:47,227
which was good and which could have not
happened if we hadn't done the proactive
279
00:12:47,227 --> 00:12:50,797
planning before and been a little bit
of a head in our recording schedule.
280
00:12:50,906 --> 00:12:55,116
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615: So, Star
Trek will continue for season three.
281
00:12:55,284 --> 00:12:56,104
It's wrapped!
282
00:12:56,415 --> 00:12:58,596
Well, we're not taking a very long break.
283
00:12:58,596 --> 00:13:01,566
We're taking a pretty quick,
fast, and efficient one.
284
00:13:01,626 --> 00:13:04,386
And then we'll have some really
fun guest episodes coming too.
285
00:13:04,386 --> 00:13:06,466
I don't know when we'll
actually get those scheduled.
286
00:13:06,476 --> 00:13:08,386
But, very, very excited for those.
287
00:13:08,496 --> 00:13:10,950
And excited for the next season,
because they only just keep
288
00:13:10,950 --> 00:13:12,540
getting better, like, honestly.
289
00:13:12,921 --> 00:13:15,331
jess-_2_05-17-2024_132615: And let us
know, , I feel we've tried to be like a
290
00:13:15,331 --> 00:13:19,791
pretty holistic view of business, but if
there's anything that, We haven't talked
291
00:13:19,801 --> 00:13:23,841
about or an issue that you're having in
your business that you'd like us to talk
292
00:13:23,851 --> 00:13:28,261
about or discuss or a topic that you'd
be interested in hearing more about us.
293
00:13:28,261 --> 00:13:31,471
Maybe we grazed over it in a past episode
and you want us to go deeper on it.
294
00:13:31,528 --> 00:13:32,828
Let us know.
295
00:13:32,868 --> 00:13:33,918
You can either.
296
00:13:34,116 --> 00:13:38,186
just DMS on Instagram or
TikTok or one of those places.
297
00:13:38,226 --> 00:13:42,586
Make sure you follow along so you get
notified when our next episode airs.
298
00:13:42,669 --> 00:13:45,139
I think right now we're
thinking sometime in June.
299
00:13:45,163 --> 00:13:47,553
if you make sure to subscribe,
you'll get notified.
300
00:13:47,716 --> 00:13:50,786
As always, if you love our show,
make sure you share it with a
301
00:13:50,786 --> 00:13:53,376
business about Steve to help us grow.
302
00:13:53,496 --> 00:13:55,516
And until next time
303
00:13:55,815 --> 00:13:58,115
rachel_2_05-17-2024_132615:
We're rooting for you.
