The Goal Digger Podcast | Top Business and Marketing Podcast for Creatives, Entrepreneurs, and Women in Business

There are things I’ve never said on this podcast… not because they’re secrets, but because no one’s ever asked. Today, I’m going to open that door, and my hope is that in hearing my answers, you’ll think differently about your own. Some of these questions come from curiosity, some from criticism… But all of them crack open a piece of where I’m at right now, and where I’m going next. So let’s go “off script” together, shall we? Click play to hear the 10 questions, and my answers that may surprise you!

We’ve all been fed the idea that “more is more” when it comes to growing your brand… but what if doing less is actually the key to unlocking your next level? Mei Pak is the founder of Creative Hive, and she’s built multiple 7-figure handmade businesses while completely ditching the hustle mentality. She started out making just $3/hour in her first year of business, but after shifting her strategy and simplifying her approach, she went on to build thriving businesses without relying on Etsy or social media. In today’s conversation, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to grow your handmade or product-based business without burning out. You’ll learn how to streamline your marketing, get visible in ways that actually work, and finally let go of the pressure to do all the things. So if you’ve been stuck in content creation chaos or spinning your wheels trying to get noticed, this episode is your permission slip to simplify and still succeed.

What if your life ran like your business? What if you had streamlined workflows, clear responsibilities, and built-in rest and rhythm not just in your work, but in your actual daily life? As an entrepreneur with ADHD, I've spent years building incredible systems in my business. Launch calendars run like clockwork. Podcast workflows practically manage themselves. My business hums like a well-oiled machine. But at home? Pure chaos. That is, until my friend Natalie Ellis introduced me to the concept of a "life operating system," and it completely changed my perspective. What if we borrowed what's working in our businesses and applied it to our real lives? Click play to find out how I did it, and you can too!

Ever bought something you loved so much, you had to tell your friends about it? What if your entire business could be built around that kind of energy; where your customers don’t just shop, they stick around, support one another, and become your brand’s loudest cheerleaders? That’s exactly what Bianca Gates has done as the founder and president of Birdies, the stylish-yet-comfy footwear brand that’s built a cult following. What started in Bianca’s living room has grown into a brand loved by women everywhere… not just because of the product, but because of the feeling it gives you. Connection. Confidence. Community. In this conversation, we’re talking about the real story behind Birdies’ growth. How Bianca built a community-first brand from day one, how authentic storytelling shaped Birdies’ success, and how you can apply her approach to your own business—even if you’re starting from scratch or feel like you’re late to the game. So if you’ve ever wondered how to rally people around your product and create a movement, not just a moment, this episode is for you.

Everyone's wrong about podcasting. They're telling you it's too saturated, too late, too hard. But here's what they don't know: 91% of podcasts are basically dead. While everyone's scared to start, you're walking into wide open territory. If you've been sitting on a podcast idea, convinced you've missed your chance, this article will change your perspective entirely. After helping hundreds of students launch successful shows and building my own podcast to over 100 million downloads, I've learned that the people saying "it's too late" are usually the same ones who gave up after three episodes. The truth is, now might actually be the perfect time to start your podcast. Let me show you exactly why!

How do I know if my podcast is working when the numbers feel slow?

Burnout can creep in when we least expect it, and most of us don’t recognize we’re burned out until it’s already taken a toll on our health, our work, and our joy.  In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the subtle, hidden signs of burnout — the ones you might be missing — and how to start reversing them before they take you out completely. Whether you’re a business owner, a busy professional, or just someone trying to juggle all the things, this conversation is going to feel like a deep breath!

If you’ve ever looked at your business, your brand, even your personal relationships, and thought, “This used to feel right… but now I’m not so sure,” you are not alone, and you are not broken. Jen Hatmaker is no stranger to the hard and holy work of reinvention. She’s a bestselling author of 14 books (including four New York Times bestsellers), the host of the award-winning For the Love podcast, and a beloved leader to a community of over 1.6 million. But her newest book, AWAKE, isn’t about business strategy. It’s about what happens when your identity, your roles, and your life fall apart… and how to rebuild from a more honest, more aligned place. Jen walks us through what she calls a Midlife Renaissance, not a crisis. It’s a powerful season of reassessing everything you’ve been told about womanhood, worth, work, and success… and reimagining a life and business that truly feels like you.

Your perfectionism isn't protecting your reputation… It's protecting your ego. And it's costing you real money, real impact, and real progress toward the life you want to build. After building my business over the last decade, I've learned this hard truth: perfectionism is selfish.  Every minute you spend polishing something that could already be helping someone is a minute you're withholding value from your audience. Every hour spent perfecting is an hour not spent learning from real market feedback. Every delayed launch is revenue walking straight out the door. If you have a Google Doc full of business ideas, a camera roll packed with content you'll "post later," and a heart full of dreams you're not quite ready to share, this one's for you.

Feeling burnt out by the social media hamster wheel? You’re not alone. Today’s guest, Kate Kordsmeier, is here to show us there’s another way to build your business… and it doesn’t have anything to do with the Instagram algorithm. Kate is a certified life and business coach, and the founder of Success with Soul, where she helps entrepreneurs grow soul-led, sustainable businesses using SEO, funnels, automation, and feminist business systems… all without social media. In this episode, we’re unpacking why creators are stepping back from social and betting big on SEO. We’ll dig into what’s really happening with AI and organic traffic, how to future-proof your visibility, and what steps you can take today to start showing up sustainably without burning out. So if you’ve ever wondered, “Is SEO dead” or “Can I really grow my business without social?”, this conversation is for you. And hey, if you want to learn even MORE about breaking free from the social media hamster wheel and attract your dream clients with SEO, head to jennakutcher.com/seo to take Kate’s incredible course, Anti-Social SEO!  Goal Digger Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/ Goal Digger Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/ Goal Digger Show Notes: https://jennakutcherblog.com/quit-social-media-business-growth   Thanks to our Goal Digger Sponsors: Sign up for your $1/month Shopify trial period at http://shopify.com/goaldigger.

If you're feeling the pressure to squeeze every last drop out of the year even though you're already running on fumes, this episode is for you. I'm going to show you how to finish the year aligned, not burned out, and why your best move right now might be to slow down on purpose! This episode is not about making you do more. It's about guiding you to choose better and to start thinking of this season as a bridge, not a cliff. Together, we’ll identify what's actually working in your business right now, the quiet wins you're probably overlooking, and we'll release the stuff that's stealing your energy without giving much back. Then, I'll show you exactly how I shift my routines and habits now, before January, so I'm not showing up to the new year with a blank page and burnout baggage. Finally, we'll talk about why saying no to 10 good ideas in favor of one bold aligned move might be the most strategic thing you do all year. This is about getting realigned with what you actually want from your life and your work. It's about redefining what "finishing strong" means, and it might not look anything like what Instagram is telling you it should.

Think your business is “too niche” to succeed online? In this coaching session, I’m chatting with Jennifer about how to sell a highly specific online course to a small-but-mighty audience… and how to attract the right people to grow a business that feels deeply aligned! Jennifer Gulizia is a flower farmer and garden educator who turned her passion for dahlias into a beautiful educational business. She’s also a Digital Course Academy student, and she’s looking to refine her offer, grow her community, and get clarity on how to market something that’s niche, time-sensitive, and doesn’t quite fit the traditional “signature course” mold. If you’ve ever worried your topic is too specific or too seasonal to succeed, this coaching session is for you. And listen, if Jennifer’s story has you thinking, “Wait… maybe I could do this too…” then I want to personally invite you to check out Digital Course Academy: the very program that helped me launch my first course and change my entire business (and life!). Enrollment is open right now, but only for a few more days, so don’t wait! Head to jennakutcher.com/dca to save your seat and get my exclusive bonus suite designed to help you actually implement what Amy teaches!

When I think about those first few years as an entrepreneur, I see a woman who was so full of fire and determination, but honestly had no idea what she was walking into. And I love her for that! Now, after years of growth, evolution, and yes, plenty of beautiful failures, I can see the patterns so clearly. The places where a little more strategy could've saved her months of spinning her wheels, where better boundaries could've prevented that inevitable crash, where more courage to be seen could've accelerated everything. This episode originally aired a while back, but I'm bringing it back because these lessons feel so relevant right now. Because here's what I've learned: we don't get to skip steps. Every fumble, every pivot, every moment of not having a clue was preparing us for what's next. And if sharing these lessons can help you honor your own journey while maybe sidestepping a few of the more painful detours? That feels like the most beautiful full-circle moment. So whether you're in your own 'figuring it out' era or you're revisiting this with fresh eyes, let's dive in with so much love for the versions of ourselves who were brave enough to begin!

Have you ever considered that angel numbers, gut feelings, and “random” synchronicities weren’t just coincidences… but clues? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Tara Swart to talk about the brain science behind intuition, the senses we never talk about, and the forgotten wisdom that could reconnect you with your full potential. Dr. Tara Swart is a neuroscientist with a PhD, a former Oxford-trained medical doctor, a Senior Advisor at MIT Sloan, Chief Science Officer at Dirtea, and the best-selling author of The Source, which has been translated into 38 languages. She’s advised high-level leaders across the globe, and this isn’t her first time on The Goal Digger Podcast! Check out her interview from 2021 all about the neuroscience of manifestation! Whether you call it your gut, your inner knowing, or something greater, this conversation will give you a new lens on how to make decisions, overcome blocks, and open yourself to what’s possible. So if you’ve ever wondered whether those “signs” you’ve been noticing are just coincidences or if they’re trying to tell you something, you’re in the right place!

What if the most transformative mastermind of your life didn’t cost a dime and didn’t require matching notebooks, a private chef, or a keynote speaker?  A few weeks ago, I did a mastermind in Chicago, and I want to talk to you about what made it one of the most powerful days of my year. In today’s episode, I’m going to unpack what a mastermind really is, why it’s different from just networking or hopping on another coffee chat, how you can create one that works for you, and why this kind of space might be the exact thing you didn’t even know you were missing.

AI is everywhere: writing emails, building sales pages, and even outlining courses. So does that mean your expertise isn’t needed anymore?

Ever feel like you’re doing everything for everyone and still falling short? That’s the mental load, and it might be silently sabotaging your business, your relationships, and your sanity. Today’s guest is Dr. Morgan Cutlip: a psychologist, relationship expert, and author on a mission to help women feel whole, light, and deeply connected in all their relationships. With a PhD in psychology and a knack for translating research into real-life solutions, she’s helped hundreds of thousands of people navigate the complexities of love, family, and partnership.  Her books Love Your Kids Without Losing Yourself and her upcoming title A Better Share tackle the emotional and mental responsibilities women disproportionately carry, especially when it comes to marriage, motherhood, and yes, running a business. If you’ve ever wondered why you’re burnt out even when your partner or team is “helping,” or if you’ve struggled to balance being a boss and being present at home, this conversation is for you. We’re diving into how the mental load affects your business, your boundaries, and your personal life, and what you can do to take some of that weight off. Want to go deeper?

Let’s flip the roles, Goal Diggers: today, YOU get to guide the conversation! I asked you to call in with your questions about business, life, creativity, burnout, strategy… Really, anything you’re walking through right now. And you showed up with such incredible honesty, depth, and curiosity. In this episode, I’m answering your real questions. We cover everything from pivoting your business when you’re scared to let go of what’s working, navigating grief while building something meaningful, handling burnout, organizing your growing testimonials, and what’s been giving me life outside of work lately. You’ll hear stories, strategies, and some honest behind-the-scenes of what’s felt really hard (and really good!) for me lately. And if you’re listening and thinking, “Wait, I have a question too!”,  good news! I want to hear from you.

Have you ever wondered why it feels harder to build a business as a woman? It’s not just you, and Anna Gifty has the stats to prove it. This conversation will explain exactly why… and what we can do about it. Anna is a Harvard-trained economist and the author of The Double Tax, a bold new book that breaks down the invisible costs women—especially women of color—pay just to participate in society. But what makes this conversation essential for entrepreneurs? Anna shows how these “taxes” sneak into your business, your brand, your pricing, your funding, your time, and what you can do to push back. From the cost of motherhood to beauty standards in the workplace to why generational wealth-building still feels out of reach, this episode is a masterclass in economic empowerment. And it’s not just theory; Anna gives us the tools to change things. If you’re building a business and wondering why it still feels this hard or you want to be part of rewriting the rules, this conversation is your permission slip and your playbook.
