| 8/31/26 | 639 - Why High-Earning Female Entrepreneurs Still Feel Stuck: The Hidden Cost of the Wrong Business Model | What happens when your business looks successful on paper—but behind the scenes, something feels completely off? In this episode, Holly sits down with Laura Schoenfeld to talk about what happens when the business you’ve built no longer fits the person—or life—you have today. Laura knows this firsthand. She was bringing in close to half a million dollars a year, yet she wasn’t keeping enough of that revenue to make the business feel worth it. Eventually, she made a decision most entrepreneurs ... | 39m 34s | ||||||
| 8/24/26 | 638 - The New Rules of Email Deliverability: How to Stay Out of Spam in the AI Era | Email marketing shouldn’t feel like another box you have to check every week. If you’re constantly asking yourself, “What am I supposed to email my list about?” there’s a better way. In this episode, Holly sits down with email strategist and automation expert Cheryl Rerick to talk about how to stop treating email like a broadcast channel and start building an intentional customer journey that works in the background of your business. They dig into how to reverse-engineer your emails from the ... | 36m 04s | ||||||

| 8/10/26 | 636 - Why Free Content Isn't Converting (And the Low-Lift Offer That Does) | What would change in your business if social media became optional—not essential? In this special crossover episode, Holly sits down with Sophia Parra to explore how entrepreneurs can grow, nurture their audiences, and make sales without relying on constant social media content. After becoming a mom, Sophia reduced her workweek from 60 hours to just 18. That shift forced her to identify which activities were truly moving the needle—and which ones were simply keeping her busy. She shares how s... | 42m 14s | ||||||
| 8/7/26 | 635 - AI for Small Business: What to Play With and What You Should Never Deploy | AI can help you move faster—but speed alone does not guarantee better results.

After building her career as a financial journalist and working in product roles at companies like Uber and Instacart, Cris left corporate life to create a business that brings enterprise-level AI and operational strategy to Main Stre... | 34m 09s | ||||||
| 8/3/26 | 634 - The Paid Ads Strategy Female Entrepreneurs Are Missing (And Why It Beats Posting Daily) with Ashley Brock | What if growing your business didn’t require posting every day, constantly checking your DMs or chasing the algorithm?

Ashley shares how entrepreneurs can use paid advertising to become more findable—so the right people discover their businesses without relying entirely on organic social media. Ashley breaks down why pa... | 33m 15s | ||||||
| 7/27/26 | 633 - My Monthly PR Process: What I Actually Do Every Month to Stay Visible Without Social Media (Part 4 of 4) | What if growing your audience didn’t require posting on social media every single day? In this closing episode of the PR and AI Visibility series, Holly pulls back the curtain on the exact monthly visibility process she uses to attract new subscribers, students, and qualified leads with a small team. This isn’t a list of random marketing ideas.
