This isn’t your typical Thanksgiving gratitude episode. In one of her most honest and heartfelt episodes yet, Ruth Soukup reflects on the moments in her life and business that looked like colossal mistakes—but turned out to be the greatest teachers. From hitting rock bottom in her twenties, to quitting law school, to walking away from her successful blog brand, Ruth shares how failure, loss, and reinvention shaped who she is today. You'll walk away with a fresh perspective on what it really ...
When’s the last time you truly felt like yourself—not the version of you performing for your family, clients, or social media, but the real you underneath all the roles you play? In this soul-searching episode, Ruth peels back the layers on the identity masks so many of us wear, and dives deep into the fears and conditioning that have kept us pretending instead of living.

Feeling stuck, uninspired, or just going through the motions? You’re not alone.

Ruth unpacks why this happe...
Join the Daily Sales Incubator If it feels like nothing in your business is working anymore, you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy. In this episode, I’m breaking down the eye-opening results from a recent survey of hundreds of online business owners—results that revealed one staggering truth: 91% of respondents feel lost, stuck, or uncertain about what’s actually working in their business right now. We’ll unpack the real reasons behind this widespread burnout and confusion (hint: it’s not you...
Some lessons you can only learn the hard way—and believe me, I’ve learned my share. In this raw and reflective episode, I’m sharing five of the most important truths I’ve learned the long way—about business, about life, and about becoming the kind of woman who creates both with intention. If you’ve ever felt stuck, like you’re spinning your wheels, or unsure how to move forward, these are the truths I wish someone had told me 10 (or 20!) years ago. They’re the lessons that changed everything—...
Let’s talk about the invisible force that’s keeping you stuck—even when you know exactly what you want. In this episode, I’m sharing two real-life stories of resistance from just this past week: one about booking a simple flight to see my mom, and another about restarting this podcast. In both cases, the task should have been easy. But resistance showed up in sneaky, subtle ways—procrastination, avoidance, guilt, shame—and almost kept me from taking action. The truth? Resistance isn’t proof y...
I put together a quick survey (it'll take about 3 minutes, I promise) to get a better sense of what's working and what's not working right now in the online business and digital marketing space. And then I'm going to compile the results and share them back with everyone who participates—because I think we all need to know we're not in this alone, and I think there's real value in understanding what's happening across the industry. Take the survey here. And one more thing… I wanted to create a...
