In this episode, I reconnect with Latoya Clark, the inspiring CEO and Founder of Butterfly Chats Media, Social Wellness Consultant, Health Educator, and Patient Advocate.

Latoya and I last spoke in Episode 41, and it was such a joy to catch up and hear how her journey has evolved since then. She shares the brave steps she’s taken—like moving out on her own and planning her first long-distance trip—and how she’s learned to embrace her health challenges while creating a meaningful life and business.

We explore the power of small, consistent steps in building confidence and momentum, especially when navigating chronic illness. Latoya talks about how celebrating small wins can shift our mindset and help us appreciate just how far we’ve come.

She also introduces her She Rises Incubator, a program designed to support women with chronic illnesses in building sustainable businesses that honor their health first. Through her SPARK framework, Latoya helps clients create a foundation for wellness before diving into branding and growth.

Plus, she shares an exciting new community event she’s organizing in partnership with Pureway, aimed at raising awareness about safe sharps disposal while empowering local communities.

Latoya’s story is a beautiful reminder that bravery in business isn’t always about giant leaps—it’s about the small, intentional steps that help us rise again and again.

In this episode of the Business Bravery Podcast, I chat with physical therapist and coach, Jen Ushold, about why pain doesn’t have to be a life sentence. Jen shares how combining pain science, mindset, and mental fitness helps people manage chronic pain and reclaim their lives. 

We dive into how the nervous system works, why education and exercise are game changers in chronic pain management, and how coaches can use these lessons to support their own clients.

This conversation really resonated with me, as I also manage my own chronic pain while balancing my online business, and I know how powerful knowledge and mindset can be in making progress.

Jen also opens up about her personal journey—navigating a tough divorce, investing in her online business, and bravely stepping onto new stages to spread her message. 

Whether you’re a coach signing your first clients or creating consistent income, you’ll walk away inspired and equipped with tools to keep moving forward.
