  • Understanding Cash Flow with Sherilyn Williams
    Mar 24 2026

    Do you know what cash flow means as a service-based entrepreneur? Do you know if YOUR business's cash flow is healthy or heading for disaster? Can you predict your cash flow, and do you know how to manage it?

    New entrepreneurs often take a money-in-money-out approach to their revenue and sales and hit each month with fingers crossed that more money comes in than goes out.

    Yikes, biz bestie! That's a recipe for money stress, an unstable business, poorly timed business expense investments and money down the drain.

    Join guest expert, bookkeeper Sherilyn Williams, as we talk about all things cash flow, business expenses, and how to build predictability and financial stability in your service-based business!

    In this episode with Annabelle King, we get real about personal branding as a business owner and how to get visible (even if it scares the heck outta you!). Annabelle shares how she went from working in big agencies to building her own business, including the mindset shifts and practical tips she learned along the way.

    You’ll discover:

    ✏️ How to separate your business’s performance from your sense of self-worth, and why it matters for your sanity!

    ✏️ Why Googling yourself is a must-do (and what can happen if you don’t manage your online narrative).

    ✏️ The three essential “characters” every entrepreneur needs (creator, business manager, and entrepreneur) and what happens when one of them takes over.

    ✏️ Actionable steps to get visible with more confidence, from prepping your story to dealing with stage fright like a pro.

    Annabelle’s practical wisdom and honest stories will have you rethinking how you show up as an entrepreneur. So you can walk away with new tools for sharing your magic with the world.

  • Values, Vision, and Impact in Branding with Ruha Ratnam
    Jul 4 2025

    Send us a text

    Want to build a brand that’s actually you (not just a pretty logo and Instagram grid)?

    In this episode with Ruha Ratnam from The Designist Studio, we dig into the connection between your core values, the people you surround yourself with, and your ability to create an impactful, trust-driven business. Join us for an unfiltered conversation about how authenticity in business is more than surface-level branding, and so much more!

    We cover:

    • The difference between presence and pressure, showing up authentically vs. hustling for perfection
    • Why knowing (and living!) your core values is the foundation of real brand trust
    • How slowing down and making intentional choices can help you avoid burnout and reconnect with your passions outside of work
    • The truth about using entrepreneurship for impact, not just for chasing dollar signs (yes, you can have both goals!)
    • A simple way to get started reflecting your values in your brand and everyday business decisions

    We share our own stories of finding balance, making space for play, and evolving our approach to business in a world that never seems to stop. If you’re ready to lead with passion, authenticity, and a little kindness (to yourself!), this episode is for you.
