Today I’m joined by Nell Stortz, my Director of Operations here at Team Allwood. She graciously stepped in and hosted a few episodes while I took a much-needed month-long sabbatical during July.

If you caught the last episode, you know that the break was great for my personal life, but today, we’re diving into the business side of things, which turned out being very successful for our team!

Nell and I talk about what it looked like behind the scenes, and I open up about how challenging it was to unplug from email, step away from social media, and cut off communication with my team and clients.

If you’ve been considering a sabbatical or just need some time away from your business, I hope this episode gives you the encouragement, and maybe a little strategy, to make it happen in your own life.

I Took July Off… and Chaos Showed Up Instead

I planned to take the entire month of July off, a much-needed break to rest, reset, and return to work feeling renewed.

But life had other plans.

From my son’s car getting stolen the day before his wedding, to sending my daughter off to Peru and then welcoming her back straight into a 5-day hospital stay… July turned out to be one of the most intense months of my life.

If you’re a woman trying to build or grow a business while life keeps throwing curveballs, this episode is for you. You’ll walk away reminded that you’re not alone, and that progress doesn’t require perfection.

Today I’m talking to the podcast expert herself… Kylee Chandler!

She’s spent nearly a decade helping podcast hosts grow their shows, some by over 200% in reach, all while hosting a podcast of her own (which I was just on, by the way!). Basically, she knows her way around podcasting.

In this episode, I’m picking her brain to get a better understanding of a field I’ve been in for a long time, but from a fresh, expert perspective.

We’re also talking about whether YOU are the right person to start a podcast. Because I know you’ve thought about it... and if so, this is a great episode to get some clarity on that question.
