In this episode, I sit down with Candace Dudley, Podcast Guesting Coach and Host of the Podcasting Mentor: Better Brave Podcast. Candace shares how podcast guesting can transform your visibility, authority, and confidence as a business owner, especially if you're tired of relying on the algorithm and want to be known as the go-to in your niche.

We talk about the power of using your voice and story in your business, the ripple effect of brave conversations, and how podcasting has helped both of us grow personally and professionally. Candace breaks down why niche speaking topics matter, how to make pitching so much simpler, and why genuine, human connection is the real secret behind successful podcast outreach.

She also opens up about her own business pivots, the bravery required to trust your instincts, and the magic that shows up when you follow aligned opportunities. If you’re a coach or service provider wanting to increase visibility, build confidence, and grow your online business without burnout, this episode is filled with practical strategies and inspiring honesty.

Whether you’re brand new to guesting or already podcasting regularly, Candace’s perspective will help you take your next brave step.

In this episode, I share the story behind my most successful launch to date — one that surprisingly didn’t make a single dollar. Instead of focusing on revenue, my goal was to build a genuine community around connection and conversation.

I talk about why I created Brave Coffee Connections, how it came from my own need for deeper relationships in business, and what I learned from my four previous “failed” community-building attempts. You’ll hear the behind-the-scenes of how I structured the event, the lessons I learned from past launches, and why I now see this experience as a turning point in my business journey.

If you’ve ever felt discouraged after a launch that didn’t bring the results you hoped for, this episode will show you a new way to measure success — one that’s built on impact, connection, and courage.

In this episode of the Business Bravery Podcast, I chat with book editor and writing coach Kerryn Trisha about the power of storytelling for coaches and online business owners. 

Kerryn shares why writing — whether journaling, memoir, or a book — can be a tool for healing, self-discovery, and building connection. And if you’ve ever wondered how to write a book for coaches or online business owners, this conversation will inspire you to start.

We also dive into how women can align their work with their natural energy cycles instead of forcing productivity every single day. Kerryn opens up about launching her Seasons membership, the bravery it took to share her insights, and her honest fears about growing an audience while staying true to her values. 

This episode is a reminder that building an online business is about connection, courage, and embracing your unique rhythm.
