About this listen

A "renaissance" signifies any revival, transformation, or renewed interest in something, often marked by a burst of creativity, intellectual activity, and cultural development. It’s time to start a Renaissance in your business and LIFE with The Renaissance Podcast, a weekly show for women entrepreneurs. This isn’t just any podcast—it’s your ultimate source for inspiration, education, and the spark you need to revive, renew, and infuse creativity and opportunity into your business.

Entrepreneurship is as much a mindset game as it is about business savvy. That’s why we’re bringing you wisdom from multi-six and seven-figure female founders who share how they support, grow, and operate their successful businesses. They have clarity around their missions and balance it all with home life, motherhood, and mental wellbeing. They're here to show you how they do it. We’re not fans of the “B” word (balance), but we believe it’s possible to run a business that gives you the keys to your dream life—including everything you love—your Renaissance life.

Hosted by Sydney Dozier, founder of Renaissance Marketing Group—one of Nashville’s top social media marketing agencies—and creator of the successful bi-annual Renaissance Women's Summit, this show is all about empowering women to live their Renaissance lives. Sydney’s mission is to inspire you to invest in yourself, because that positive impact WILL and DOES ripple through your business.

Expect to be inspired, empowered, uplifted, and encouraged. Say goodbye to that isolating feeling of being a woman entrepreneur—we’re here to build a community of Renaissance women who share openly and vulnerably about our business journeys.

Your Renaissance is just getting started, and we're so glad you're here!

  • From Single Mom to PR Powerhouse: Emily Reynolds on Leadership & Legacy
    Sep 1 2025

    Send us a text

    In this week’s episode of The Renaissance Podcast, Sydney sits down with Emily Reynolds, powerhouse founder of R Public Relations and a Forbes Business Council member whose career has spanned hospitality, business, and technology over the last 15+ years.

    Emily’s journey began with co-authoring a book in grad school and grew into a thriving boutique PR agency that now operates in five major cities. Along the way, she’s been named one of the top PR leaders in the country, featured in outlets like Entrepreneur, BuzzFeed, and Authority Magazine—all while raising five children and redefining what work-life integration looks like as a founder and mother.

    In this conversation, Emily and Sydney dive into:

    • Why every entrepreneur needs a crisis plan before they think they do
    • How to approach the big question: What’s the ROI of PR?
    • The evolution of media in 2025—and why PR and social media are inseparable
    • Emily’s candid story of starting her agency as a single mom and growing it while raising five kids
    • What leadership and team growth look like after a decade in business, how

    Emily’s mantra is simple but powerful: “Your stories have power—make them move mountains.” This episode will inspire you to rethink your relationship with PR, leadership, and the way your story shapes your business.

  • Integration, Motherhood, and Business: Redefining Balance with Elizabeth Moore
    Aug 25 2025

    Send us a text

    What if the real growth in life doesn’t come from constantly consuming and hustling—but from pausing to integrate what you’ve already learned?

    In this powerful conversation, Sydney sits down with Elizabeth Moore, co-founder of TRILUNA, to talk about the often-overlooked seasons of integration—the moments where we stop exhausting ourselves with nonstop education and instead implement, embody, and live it. Together, they explore what integration looks like across business, wellness, and motherhood.

    Elizabeth opens up about:

    • What surprised her most about becoming a mother while also running a business—emotionally, mentally, and logistically.
    • The moments she questioned if she could keep leading her business in early motherhood—and how she pushed through.
    • The realities of running a business partnership, having hard conversations, and setting transparent expectations.
    • The pressure women feel to “do it all” and what she would say to someone trying to balance growing a business while raising a baby.
    • Reflecting on the messy, beautiful integration of business leadership and new motherhood.

    Elizabeth Moore is a lifelong creative and the co-founder of TRILUNA, a company that redefines wellness as inclusive, accessible, and rooted in connection. Through TRILUNA, she brings mindfulness, movement, and intention to events of all kinds, helping organizations foster deeper engagement and well-being. A proud mom and woman of many passions, Elizabeth finds her deepest sense of wellness in community, creativity, and time spent in nature.

    This episode is for every woman who has ever wondered if she could balance her ambition with motherhood—and what it looks like to thrive when you stop trying to “do it all” and start integrating what matters most.
