We’re back today with part two of our series interviewing past brides of ours. Today, welcome to the show Sulli Lichnovsky one of Evie’s past brides from 2021. Sulli was a fun bride to interview because she’s also a photographer who is IN this industry as well. So she has a dual perspective which brings another element to today’s conversation.    Today we ask Sulli some hard-hitting questions about her experience working with Evie, things Evie did that blew her away, AND some things Evie could have done better. We ask her for her top tips on choosing vendors for her wedding, and if she had to redo her wedding all over again...what would she change. --------------------------------- Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/313-behind-the-scenes-with-evies-past-bride-with-sulli-lichnovsky --------------------------------- Goal Setting Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/goals --------------------------------- Basecamp: www.basecamp.com/heart Use the link above to try Basecamp for free!  --------------------------------- Contract Templates: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!  --------------------------------- If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here. --------------------------------- PODCAST10 for 10% off anything from The Shop! www.theheartuniversity.com/shop --------------------------------- Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Today this episode is actually us breaking down WHY we decided to pause this huge launch. This episode is going to be a really good listen for you if you’re a natural hustler. If you’re someone who loves being busy, loves the high of launching something and putting it out into the world, or if you’re someone who just feels this constant pressure to “keep up” in a world that consistently tells you to do more, create more, sell more. Every day we are inundated online with competitors, friends, and peers “crushing” it, hitting their goals left and right, and honestly, it feels like if we don’t hustle our butts off to keep up, we’ll be left behind in the dust. ------------------------------ Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/275-we-hit-pause-on-a-huge-launch-heres-why ------------------------------ Determine Your Why Guide: www.theheartuniversity.com/why  ------------------------------ Credit.com: www.credit.com/heart To get 7 days absolutely free! ------------------------------ Athletic Greens: www.athleticgreens.com/HEART ------------------------------ If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here. ------------------------------ PODCAST10 for 10% off anything from The Shop! www.theheartuniversity.com/shop ------------------------------ Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Today Allee did not come to PLAY on this episode and dropped FIRE for all our entrepreneurs on all things marketing here today. We start with a 10,000-foot view perspective. Allee gives us one of the most pinpointed and easy-to-understand definitions of marketing that will probably make your jaw drop and a million ideas explode in your brain on what to do in your business. She then discusses some of the biggest mistakes she sees entrepreneurs making in their marketing (and how to avoid or fix them in your own business!).    As if that weren’t enough, we then dove even deeper and more tactical by walking through how to know exactly where to focus your time and energy in your marketing right now. Because let’s be real, there are a million and one opportunities or “must do” options facing you today… so how do you narrow those down and focus on what’s right for you, your business, and your customers.   Allee gives tangible steps on how product shop owners can handle customers abandoning carts, and how service-based owners can stop getting ghosted. She also covered identifying your ideal customer so you know EXACTLY who you’re talking to, and so much more. It’s seriously so packed it’s unreal.   Plus the last like 10 minutes we asked Allee what the best and worse parts of working for us are and….. There’s tea spilled. It’s hysterical.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/266-breaking-down-marketing-to-build-a-wildly-successful-business-with-allee-cyrus Lightroom Editing Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Lunya: www.lunya.co Use code HEART20 for 20% off!   Episode 113 A Game Plan for Life by John Wooden    Follow along with Allee:  www.rightupyourallee.com www.malibumedia.co Right Up Your Allee Show

Now today’s episode is MEATY. You’ll probably want to repeat this episode twice or more because our guest today drops so much fire it’s not even funny.   Today we had Kelly Roach on the show for the second time. We first welcomed Kelly to the heart and hustle podcast on Episode 121, and today she’s back for moorreeee marketing wisdom and goodness.   Today we talked to Kelly ALL about Conviction Marketing and how to stay aligned with your business and marketing voice. So what does that mean? Well… raise your hand if you’ve been feeling BEYOND fed up and overwhelmed with social media and all the “trends” in marketing in general that are changing seemingly overnight. Hand raised? Great, you’re in good company, and you’re listening to the right episode. Kelly breaks down why that feeling is beyond valid and what to do about it. She gives amazing tips and strategies on how to create content and master a marketing strategy that is based on your values and convictions that will lead to even more sales and success, without the overwhelm or burnout (and without dancing like a monkey on reels if that’s not your cup of tea.) She explains the difference between vanity metrics and conversions metrics, and how to serve your audience authentically, and as a result, be more successful.   This episode is a freaking POWER PUNCH of goodness and it lit us on FIRE so we know you’re gonna love it too. If you’re ready to have your marketing plan completely revolutionized (and feel excitement and peace about it again!) then grab a pen & paper and get ready to dive in!   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/260-how-to-market-with-conviction-stop-hopping-on-trends-that-dont-align-with-your-brand-with-kelly-roach   Lightroom Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   Episode 121   Follow along with Kelly:  Kelly Roach Show www.instagram.com/kellyroachofficial www.kellyroachcoaching.com Conviction Marketing Book   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Do you ever feel behind? Like you’re already past the age you should have had it “all” together and feel like a failure? Do you feel like if you didn’t start a successful company when you were like 21 you’ve failed in life? Or GOSHHH dangit if you haven’t hit Forbes 30 Under 30 you might as well up and quit and get a “normal job” working in corporate.   Just because your story might not look the exact same as ours does not mean you have failed in life. And today’s podcast episode is literally ALLLLL about that.   We are sharing multiple stories and examples today of entrepreneurs, CEOs, and powerhouse human beings who you probably know and love, or at least admire or respect, who didn’t start what they are now known for until later in life.    NONE of these people we’re about to share with you started their legacy of what they're known for when they were 20. Or 25.    And a powerful truth we touch on in the episode is this: slow growth is a GOOD thing. Overnight success does NOT happen, and as much as Instagram comparison skews our brains into thinking we’re SO much further behind than everyone else….. We’re really not.   You’re not behind. You're right on time for YOUR beautiful, powerful story.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/259-you-arent-behind-listen-to-this-if-you-feel-like-its-too-late-to-accomplish-your-dreams   The Heart Shop: www.theuniversity.com/shop   Primally Pure: https://primallypure.com/?rfsn=5649435.725fd3 Use HEARTANDHUSTLE for 10% OFF.   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Back in April during the Heart Conference, we did something a little extra fun to give our attendees (aka YOU) a chance to be on this show. We had our podcast audio engineer, Hayden, set up a little mini podcast studio for our attendees to join a few podcast episodes with us. So we had them ask us some questions that we’d answer on a future show …AKA THIS EPISODE!    You asked us questions ranging from, “what would we tell a multi-passionate entrepreneur who is dealing with burnout?”, “our #1 piece of advice for someone just starting their business”, and to some personal questions on our most difficult seasons and what we learned from them to some fun ones like what we’d be doing if we weren’t in our current line of work.    This is SUCH a fun episode and such a fun way to have YOU, our podcast listeners, actually ON the show with us!!!    So buckle up and get ready for a fun variety of questions and answers! Also, stay tuned to the end because there’s a surprise question that you need to hear.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/URL Slug257-conference-qa-business-tips-advice-burnout-and-the-most-difficult-season-lessons   Buku: www.bukuship.com/heartandhustle For a free 7-day trial!   The Heart University Courses: www.theheartuniversity.com/courses   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Lindsey and her husband, Andrew Roman are taking over the podcast today to chat about something that was quite literally life-changing that we did last month for the month of May. We took a work sabbatical for a month where I took off work from The Heart University, we cut out social media entirely, and legit hardly touched our phones AT ALL all month. It was absolutely life-changing and incredible for our family as a whole. We did a LOT of other intentional things during our sabbatical that we’ll get into in the show, but when I came back to Instagram at the beginning of June you guys had a TON of really incredible questions for me, so what better way than to answer them on the podcast. So Andrew and I are showing up today sharing exactly what went down in May, what we did, what we learned, and answering your juicy questions along the way!   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/255-we-didnt-touch-our-phones-or-social-media-for-a-month-heres-what-happened-with-lindsey-and-andrew-roman   Buku: www.bukuship.com/heartandhustle For a free 7-day trial!   Batch.ai: www.batch.ai Use code “HEARTHUSTLE4LIFE” for 25% off your first purchase   Take Back Your Family by Jefferson Bethke  If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity   www.instagram.com/mrandrewroman

This episode is going to pivot away from business a bit and dive more into the lifestyle side of the podcast that we love to cover here and there. Let’s be real, if your business is running great but your life and body are falling apart, there’s a problem! Well we’re about to get really personal and specific in this episode and hopefully help a LOT of people today because we’re talking about the dreaded curse most of us have dealt with or are still dealing with- acne.   Our guests today are founders Kayleigh and Danielle from Clearstem Skincare, a non-toxic skincare line that targets acne, anti-aging, and scar reversing utilizing premium ingredients.    Both women struggled with acne for years in spite of multiple dermatologists, specialists, multiple rounds of accutane, laser treatments, and more. Kayleigh and Danielle took a leap of faith and founded CLEARSTEM Skincare.   Today we talk with Kayleigh and Danielle all about what MOST doctors and dermatologists don’t tell you: there are ROOT causes of acne that YOU can address to support your body and skin. We cover things like: the biggest misconception people have about acne, the first steps you should take to heal your acne, your hormones, gut, and nutrition and how those influence your skin, what to be aware of in your products that may be aggravating your acne issues, how to find out which ingredients in your products you’re using are pore cloggers, and SO much more.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/URL Slug250-how-to-clear-your-skin-acne-advice-from-the-acne-guru-danielle-gronich-kayleigh-christina   Zencastr: https://zen.ai/heartandhustle   Primally Pure: https://primallypure.com/?rfsn=5649435.725fd3 Use HEARTANDHUSTLE for 10% OFF.   Follow along with Kayleigh & Danielle:  www.clearstemskincare.com www.instagram.com/clearstemskincare www.instagram.com/danielle.the.acne.guru www.instagram.com/kayleigh.christina   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Welcome to the show where we combine heart-felt girl chats with hardcore business and marketing strategies to help cultivate your life and business. Today’s episode is a super fun one. We did an episode a while back (Episode 197 if you haven’t listened to it yet) where we just came to the mic completely unscripted, vulnerable, and had an honest girl chat between us on the pressures of being online in this day and age, comparison, feeling the pressure to either be overly vulnerable online or overly curated.  And the feedback we received from you was that you absolutely LOOVVEDDDDD that unscripted and honest girl chat episode. SOOOOO we decided to do it again on today’s episode.    Over the past year, we have slowly pivoted our business from being full-time wedding photographers to now focusing more on business coaching and running the heart as well as our other companies. And within that pivot, we’ve gone through a lot of uncertainty and lack of clarity on how to use our personal Instagrams to show up online.    Are our Instagrams now considered influencers and purely personal accounts? Do we treat them purely as business coach accounts? How do we differentiate our own accounts from The Heart University’s account?    Behind the scenes, we’ve been on the struggle bus about ALL these questions, and today we’re just openly and honestly pulling back the curtain to everything we’ve been internally discussing with each other, and you’re getting a sneak peek into the raw vulnerability that comes from pivoting your business.    If you’ve found yourself in a similar season OR you feel a lack of clarity when it comes to your own Instagram account, welcome! You’re in the welcome territory. Cause same.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/URL Slug249-girl-chat-some-of-our-recent-instagram-struggles   The Lightroom Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Today is another coaching call episode where we sat down with one of our students from our course The Instagram Major and coached her on all things Instagram. And you get a li’l front-row seat in on our conversation.   Today we chatted with Dallas-based intimate wedding photographer Annie Shannon, the sweetest human on the planet, about her Instagram. In today’s episode, we go over her Instagram feed, giving her tips on the disconnect she said she’s feeling with booking potential clients from Instagram.

We talk a LOT on this show about marketing and business, particularly coming from our experience with personal branding and running businesses with your face attached to the front. A lot of you can relate to the fact that when your business requires YOU to get out of your bed, show up, and physically make your business profitable, it can be SO exhausting. HOWEVER, there is a WORLD of business types out there, and not every company has to operate that way. It’s WISE to have multiple types of income which is what we’re chatting all about today with our dear friend Zim Flores.   Today we talked about the 8 different types of income streams that most millionaires have, what each looks like, and where you should start in your own journey if you want to begin expanding your revenue streams. Zim breaks down what passive income can look like, business model ideas for you to chew on, as well as a good chat about the pros and cons of having a personal brand with your face attached to it, and how to begin thinking about building income streams without a personal brand at all.   This episode is PACKED and we seriously can’t believe this is only a fraction of what Zim is gonna be sharing at The Heart Conference in Nashville in a couple of weeks.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/237-8-different-types-of-income-streams-and-how-to-build-passive-revenue-with-zim-flores   The Heart Conference: www.theheartuniversity.com/conference   Connect with others before the conference to plan lodging, transportation and create relationships before in our Facebook group: ​​https://www.facebook.com/groups/170106201881803/   Batch.ai: www.batch.ai Use code “HEARTHUSTLE4LIFE” for 25% off your first purchase   Follow along with Zim;  www.instagram.com/zimism www.zimism.com www.morningassembly.com   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

This recording is from an interview that we did on Mary Marantz’s podcast a few months ago. It was SUCH a powerful conversation that we wanted to make sure YOU, our listeners, got to join the conversation as well.

In today’s conversation with Mary, we talked about everything mentioned, PLUS what to do when you feel far from the Lord, how to create content without losing yourself in the process, how to prioritize rest, how to focus on slow growth in order to create strong roots, and so much more that we PROMISE will bless your socks off today. Mary is a powerhouse entrepreneur, believer, and human being, and this episode will bless and wrecked us in so many ways and we know it’ll do the same for you.

Calling all my photographers out there!! This episode is about to be a little nugget of fun, short and sweet insight into our gear bags. If you’re in a season of growing your gear list, you’re wanting to know what lenses and all that jazz we use, OR you’re just curious about what kind of gear goes into shooting professional photography this episode is for you!   Before we go any further, though, I wanted to take a moment to discuss what you NEED as a photographer. The reality is, friend, you don’t have to have ALL THE GEAR UNDER THE SUN. And you especially don’t have to have it when you first start out.    We’re are about to break down a bunch of gear that we have and use but please keep in mind that we’ve been accumulating this for YEARS. We remember what it feels like to see all these photographers using these fancy schmancy (and expensive as HECK) lenses or pieces of gear, and it’s easy to feel like “ugh, well I’ll never succeed until I get all of that!”. You do NOT need all the fanciest, newest, nicest gear in the world. In fact, sometimes the simpler the better! We both use one specific lens 80% of the time we’re shooting. You don’t need a million pieces of the newest, nicest equipment in order to be a dang good photographer.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/223-whats-in-our-gear-bags   The Heart Conference: www.theheartuniversity.com/conference  Conference Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170106201881803/    Daily Harvest: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1823794&u=2908821&m=64681&urllink=&afftrack= Use promo code: HEART for $40 off your first box!   Gear Bag PDF: www.theheartuniversity.com/gear   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Today Evie is taking over the podcast and bringing on a guest in the fashion industry world to discuss something a little, shall we say, eye-opening? If you’ve ever wondered what all this hubbub about “sustainable fashion” or “ethical fashion” is, what that even means, how to do your part as either a brand OR as a consumer? This episode is for you. Today we have Jessica Kelly on the show.    Today Jessica talks about everything sustainable and ethical fashion. Covering everything from “what even IS sustainable fashion??” to behind the scenes of being a brand in the fashion world and how much you may not know about working with manufacturing and product development. We discuss steps you can take as a consumer to support sustainable and ethical fashion brands and movements as well as steps you can take as a brand or a founder trying to make waves in this industry.    If you’ve ever thought “made in America” meant “better”, you’ll wanna listen. If you think you know the exact definition of a “sustainable brand”, you’ll wanna listen. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or exhausted by the sustainability conversation in the fashion world, you’ll wanna listen.   It can be MESSY and CONFUSING to try to wrap our heads around “sustainability” but Jessica breaks everything down in such a way that you’ll walk away feeling empowered and excited rather than discouraged or overwhelmed.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/202-spilling-the-tea-of-the-fashion-industry-sustainable-fashion-with-jessica-kelly Website Templates: www.theheartuniversity.com/website-templates   The Posing Minor: www.theheartuniversity.com/posing-minor   Follow along with Jessica:  www.thr3efold.com www.instagram.com/thr3efold www.instagram.com/j3ssicak3lly   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Earlier this year on Lindsey's stories she talked about the concept of silent wealth, and how Andrew and she wanted to not only work towards diversifying their income to have multiple streams but also to make sure that a good chunk of those streams of income was coming from business avenues that weren’t necessarily attached to her face.    If you aren’t familiar with the term “silent wealth”, it’s essentially the concept of having income and investments that are detached from your name, your face, or any other brand you may have.   We’re excited to dive into this topic and discuss the how, the why, and the what of building silent wealth. If you’re intrigued by the idea of having multiple income and revenue streams detached from your public image, you’re gonna love this conversation!   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/194-what-is-silent-wealth-how-to-build-it   Lightroom Editing Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Married couples - LISTEN UP! Today you’re about to get your world rocked in the BEST way possible. We’re about to have the most powerful, raw, and life-changing conversation with two of the sweetest and funniest humans on earth. Kristin and Danny Adams bring the fire talking about all things relationships and marriage.    Now if you don’t know who they are, Kristin and Danny Adams are the husband-and-wife duo whose February 2017 lip-sync video went mega-viral and completely changed their lives. To date, it’s been viewed over 300 million times and has grown their online community to one million people.    Before they started making videos, Kristin worked in the entertainment industry as a television host and correspondent, and Danny worked in the entertainment industry as an actor, comedian, and stunt man for sports commercials. Now, they work together full-time to produce online family-friendly content where God is always welcome. When they aren’t making videos, they homeschool their two children, travel across the country hosting and emceeing live events, speak at marriage conferences, and perform their “Laughter Is the Best Medicine” program.   In today’s episode, Kristin and Danny share their raw story of coming to the Lord together as a couple, how their relationships with God completely changed their lifestyle before marriage. Before they found the Lord they were working in Hollywood, living together, having sex, and made the radical choice after finding the Lord to move out, commit to purity until their wedding date, and completely changed their entire lifestyle. We then chatted about some of the most powerful marriage truths, principles, and tools that will completely transform a relationship from “boo to woo”.

Today we’re talking about the massive impact and power that comes from having a business mentor in your life. As an entrepreneur, it can be freaking HARD as heck to build and grow a business all on your own. So often as entrepreneurs, we’re chugging at our dreams alone. If you’re the kind of person who didn't come from an entrepreneurial family and don’t have friends who are also in the entrepreneurial world then it can be so lonely not to mention difficult to navigate the mindset blocks and how to run a business.    This is why investing in your business with a coach or a mentor who understands it, who is in your industry or understands business, in general, can make a huge impact on your success as a business owner. Let’s dive into the top 3 reasons why you need a business mentor in your life and our top tips on how to find one.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/192-why-having-a-business-mentor-will-change-your-life   The Content Photo Minor: https://theheartuniversity.com/content-minor   Daily Harvest: https://www.daily-harvest.com/?sscid=81k5_ny39p&utm_source=sas&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=aff&utm_term=2908821 Use promo code: HEART for up to $40 off your first box!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

This episode is for all our entrepreneurs working mamas out there. We’re chatting about everything balancing a career AND motherhood and the mindset behind that elusive balance and tension. Today we’re chatting with Becky Hoschek, a life and mindset coach for faith-fueled moms called to build businesses and growing careers while raising families. Through private 1:1 coaching and her podcast, Beyond Happy, Becky helps women get unstuck and get their lives back so that they can fully live the meaningful lives they're called to. We asked Becky the BIGGEST questions we hear all the time and OOF she did not disappoint. She got to the heart of issues like: “The pressure we put on ourselves as working mamas to “get back to work” immediately after having a baby” “The mindset hacks we can utilize when it comes to balancing both motherhood AND running a business.” She shares about how though entrepreneurship and motherhood do have unexpected ups and downs that are out of our control, there is SO much we DO have control over and talks about practical ways to actively choose the life we’re living. PLUS she shares her thoughts on the word “busy” and the lies often associated with that phrase, especially as working mamas. Are we ACTUALLY busy? Or is it a lie we’re believing and being told?    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/189-the-most-powerful-conversation-on-motherhood-and-entrepreneurship-with-becky-hoschek   Kindred Bravely: https://www.kindredbravely.com Use code “HUSTLE20” for 20% off   Better Help:www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   Follow along with Becky:  www.beckyhoschek.com www.instagram.com/beckyhoschek Beyond Happy Podcast    If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Today Lindsey is taking over! We decided to split up some solo shows for the fall season and do some deep dives into separate Q&A’s.   There’s a lot of fun personal things that don’t make sense for us both to talk about on solo shows, so we figured it would be fun to do separate solo shows to tackle different topics that apply more specifically to us.    Lindsey polled you guys a couple of weeks ago and got some INCREDIBLE questions. Seriously there were too many good ones but real talk… we’re covering a LOT of territories today.    From personal life updates (like how building their home on their Florida land) is going, to their current Kansas renovation. To questions like “What’s your work/life schedule like as a mom” “how to do prep for big course launches” and then ending out the episode with some powerful heart talks answering questions like “How do you discern between what you think you want for your life vs what God wants for you?” AND “how to not feel like you’re begging for attention every time you post on Instagram.”     Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/188-qa-episode-with-lindsey-house-renovation-updates-how-to-prep-for-launches-and-powerful-heart-talks Kindred Bravely: https://www.kindredbravely.com Use code “HUSTLE20” for 20% off  Heart Shop Website Templates: www.theheartuniversity.com/website-templates   The Posing Minor: www.theheartuniversity.com/posing-minor   Lindsey Roman Presets: www.lindseyroman.com/presets   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Now, if you’re someone who is trying to live a cleaner, more natural lifestyle, but you get EASILY overwhelmed with where to even start, then today’s podcast show is for you. We’re chatting with the co-founder and chief brand officer of Hilma, Lily Galef.    Lily built her career as a creative brand marketer and strategist managing content and partnerships at Vogue, Vox, and Refinery29 before starting her company Hilma, a natural remedy and supplement company. At Hilma, she leads all brand, community, and content strategy initiatives.   And today we sat down and chatted with her about all things clean living and how she started Hilma. She tells the story of how she and her friends noticed a gap in the market of the supplement wellness industry. They noticed how every time they had a headache or went to take cold medicine, it was always filled with sugary unnatural ingredients that weren’t the best for you, and so they decided to do something about it. Her story is SO inspiring for any entrepreneur wanting to create something they see that isn’t being done in a specific market.    Or if you’re just someone wanting to learn more about clean living and where to even get started with natural remedies and supplements to your everyday products you’re ingesting and putting in and on your body, you HAVE to hear what Lily has to say. She gives practical steps on where to even start if you’re wanting to dive into trying more clean products, she lists a BUNCH of ingredients and chemicals to beware of, and lists places she recommends shopping as well as specific brands she recommends trying out.    This episode is so great for any entrepreneur who wants to be encouraged and inspired to tackle a problem in the marketplace OR any guy or gal wanting to move away from toxic products and into natural, clean living.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/187-clean-living-tips-we-can-all-implement-into-our-lives-with-lily-galef   Kindred Bravely: https://www.kindredbravely.com Use code “HUSTLE20” for 20% off    Lightroom Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   Follow along with Lily & Hilma:  www.hilma.co www.instagram.com/hilma_co www.instagram.com/lilygalef Use code HUSTLE20 for 20% off Hilma products (excluding subscriptions)   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

We’re welcoming onto the podcast 2 Olympic athletes and INCREDIBLY powerful and inspiring women - Arianne Jones and Paige Lawrence.   These two ladies met while competing at the 2014 Olympics. Arianne competed in luge at the 2014 Olympics, 50 World Cups, 5 World Champs, and won 2 World Cup medals. Her Olympic career was filled with a decade of overcoming naysayers who told her that she would never amount to anything, overtraining and finally, breaking her back, which was the catalyst to discovering the power of nutrition. After coming back 8 months later to win Gold she became obsessed with the untapped potential behind what is at the end of our fork and the power of your mindset.   Paige competed in pairs figure skating at the 2014 Olympics, 21 International Competitions (medalling at several), and was the 4x Canadian Pairs Bronze medalist, and is now dedicated to helping entrepreneurs unlock their potential and achieve outstanding results while avoiding burnout. Through her Olympic career, Paige learned firsthand the exact mindset and skill set that is required for optimal performance, however, she also learned how the “high-performance career at all costs” mentality can cut a rising career short. She is now passionate about helping others achieve high performance in their businesses, achieve their audacious goals, and feel fulfilled without sacrificing their physical and mental health and happiness.   We not only chat about their Olympic careers and the biggest lessons they learned in that process that they wish everyone could know, but we also dove into some very specific, tangible tools for entrepreneurs to take advantage of when it comes to pursuing big goals and success. It’s one of the most practical, tangible episodes of how to avoid burnout as an entrepreneur, the biggest mindset strategies you can implement that will change your life and your success, and how your food can actually completely transform your productivity and mental health.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/185-tangible-tools-you-need-as-an-entrepreneur-with-arianne-jones-paige-lawrence   Kindred Bravely: https://www.kindredbravely.com Use code “HUSTLE20” for 20% off    The Content Minor: https://theheartuniversity.com/content-minor   Daily Harvest: https://www.daily-harvest.com/?sscid=81k5_ny39p&utm_source=sas&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=aff&utm_term=2908821 Use promo code: HEART for up to $40 off your first box!   Follow along with Arianne & Paige:  www.intagram.com/paigelawrencecoaching  www.instagram.com/ariannejones   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Welcome back to our Team Interview Series! Today we have a freaking TREAAATTT for you! Today, we’re talking to our girl KT Howie.   KT is our Content Creator and Community Manager at The Heart University. She’s the brains and brawn behind most of our Heart Instagram content and the beast behind our video editing for courses, PDF and graphic design, and quite literally so much more. But she didn’t start there! She started as an intern for Lindsey a couple of years ago and that is a WILD story in and of itself.   Today she shares her journey of dreaming of living in NYC to the huge pivot and surrender to the Lord she made that led her to land an internship with Lindsey in Hawaii. From there she’s just continued to grow with us as a company and is now a full-blown team member who is invaluable to our daily operations.   There are LITERALLY so many reasons why you need to listen to this podcast episode it's not even funny. We covered SOOOOO much with KT.   If you’ve ever wondered what a unique and powerful internship model looks like, or what it’s like to be on the content creation side of The Heart team, or how Lindsey and I kinda threw her into the deep end of social media when she first started.   Or if you’ve ever struggled with making something an idol in your life or battled with the belief that giving up your big dreams to trust what God has for you automatically means that you’re settling for less than what you want, Ohhh KT has some words for you.    It’s such a powerful, fun, and real interview today. And we know you’re gonna get so much goodness out of KT’s story and her wisdom.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/173-how-internships-can-be-a-powerful-model-in-your-business-with-our-content-creator-kt-howie   The Lightroom Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along with KT:  www.instagram.com/kattkattykatt www.kthowie.com   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

In today’s episode, we’re talking about something that a lot of entrepreneurs might encounter at one point or another in their business career- pivoting.   Let’s face it. People change. Our interests change. Our lives change. And sometimes that means our businesses have to change with it.    Knowing HOW to navigate a change of direction in your business can be tricky. It brings up questions like “What if people don’t like the new direction I’m going in?”, “How can I pivot without losing my followers?”, and “How can I serve 2 audiences at the same time?”   Well, today we’re tackling the big question on pivoting and going into all those nitty-gritty questions to help YOU navigate a business or brand pivot.   We have both done it with our photography businesses into business coaching, and multiple other things so we have LOTS of nuggets for you.     Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/172-how-to-pivot-your-brand-without-losing-your-audience The Heart Shop: www.theheartuniversity.com/shop   The Content Photo Minor: https://theheartuniversity.com/content-minor   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

HOW DID WE KNOW TO GO INTO BUSINESS WITH EACH OTHER?   In this episode, we’re dedicating it to tackling that beast of a topic - business partners - specifically starting a business with a close friend or partner. Honestly, when we FIRST started our little photography workshop we had NO clue what we were doing and the places this company would grow to. It was honestly a divine working of the Lord that put us together. However, we still originally started The Heart Workshop which led to now becoming The Heart University very naively. We made a lot of mistakes along the way, but we also did a LOT of things right. And today we’re chatting about it ALL.    Our top 5 recommendations to consider when going into business with a friend or partner. We’re covering things we believe are absolute MUSTS, things we didn’t do at first but learned along the way, and things we did right from the very beginning.    Running a company with a partner by your side is one of the best things in the world, but it takes a LOT of freaking hard work.   Show notes:  https://theheartuniversity.com/168-we-almost-ruined-our-business-partnership-listen-to-avoid-our-mistakes   Website Templates: ​​www.theheartuniversity.com/website-templates   The Posing Minor: www.theheartuniversity.com/posing-minor   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

We're going to go out on a limb here and say this might be our best episode ever. If you DARE skip this one or hop off this episode, your life will be worse for it. We're not kidding. Why are we saying this so boldly? Why do we so desperately want you to hear today’s episode?    Because we had the complete honor of chatting with the incredible Brian Biro and let us just tell you what he had to say will change your life - as a business owner, as a leader, as a parent, as a child, and as a human being. Within the first 10 minutes of chatting, Brian had us in TEARS and then again at the end. In the best way possible.   Now if you don’t know Brian Biro, he is known as America’s Breakthrough Coach! A major client of his once described him best when he said: “Brian Biro has the ENERGY of a 10-year-old… the ENTHUSIASM of a 20-year-old, and the WISDOM of a 75-year-old!” (And after chatting with him on today’s episode, we could NOT agree more with that. Brian is a coach, speaker, and author who’s delivered over 1,800 presentations around the world over the last 30 years. As the author of 15 books including his bestseller, BEYOND SUCCESS, and his brand new THE ROI OF KINDNESS, Brian was rated #1 from over 40 Speakers at 4 consecutive INC. Magazine International Conferences. With degrees from Stanford University and UCLA, Brian has appeared on Good Morning America and CNN. Brian was named one of the top 100 most inspirational graduates in the 75-year history of the UCLA Graduate School of Business. He was also honored as one of the top 10 interactive keynote speakers in North America, and one of the top 60 Motivational Speakers in the WORLD! And lemme just say Brian deserves EVERY single one of those accolades and titles because he truly is the real deal.   Today, Brian talks to us about some of the biggest lessons you’ll ever learn when it comes to being a leader. But before you mentally check out or even hop off this episode thinking “oh, I’m not a leader..” Stop right there. That’s not true, and Brian is going to reveal why. In one of the most impactful, empowering, and energizing episodes we’ve done, Brian covers the power of the pygmalion effect and how to harness that to change the lives of those around you, and how to create a culture of kindness and how that can skyrocket your life and business (not to mention the lives of those around you) far beyond anything you thought possible.    If you’re curious to know what sets some of the biggest and most-loved companies apart from their competitors and how you can use the same strategy and principles in your own life or business, don't go anywhere.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/167-how-to-become-the-most-memorable-company-in-your-market-with-brian-biro   Lightroom Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   Follow along with Brian:  www.brianbiro.com www.instagram.com/brian.biro   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Something that we’ve been intentional about this year since our executive retreat is shining more of a spotlight on our INCREDIBLE team behind The Heart University. And make sure it’s VERY clear that The Heart isn’t the Evie and Lindsey show because our team does so much behind the scenes to make this company, our courses, our shop, our social media, and this podcast actually happen, and run smoothly for you. So we thought it would be fun to do some guest interviews with the incredible women who work for The Heart University. First up on today’s show is Ally Runnels - our Podcast Manager and Operations Manager.    The story of how we met Ally and how she eventually became a member of our team is WILD, and she shares it all on today’s episode. We then dive into the nitty-gritty behind everything she does to make this show a reality for you twice a week. The ONLY thing we do for this podcast is to write the outlines and record the episodes. Ally is the woman who does everything else behind the scenes, and today’s conversation is a fascinating peek behind the curtain of everything it takes to create a top-rated show like The Heart and Hustle Podcast.    If you’re wanting to get into podcasting today’s show will be a rundown of what it takes, the software and programs we use to make it all happen, and some great insight into how to strategically name your episode titles so they are more likely to be listened to. Lastly, Ally goes in DEPTH into the dos and don’ts for pitching yourself as a guest to podcasts. She’s our gatekeeper on who decides who is or isn’t a guest on our show, so she had LOTS of advice to give here. If you’re an entrepreneur wanting to be a guest on podcasts, you’ll want to tune into what she has to say because it’s GOLD.    Show notes:  https://theheartuniversity.com/165-the-behind-the-scenes-of-our-podcast-with-our-podcast-manager-ally-runnels HoneyBook: share.honeybook.com/heart   In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    The Heart University Shop: www.theheartuniversity.com/shop   Follow along with Ally:  www.instagram.com/aprunnels If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.

As the founder and principal attorney at Ibekwe Law, Iffy believes that every woman deserves to make decisions that affect her. A woman can accomplish these decisions with wills, trusts, and other estate planning documents. As a Black businesswoman and attorney, she is not your garden-variety estate planning attorney. She wishes to provide services to those who her area of the law has historically ignored.   Now, if you’re feeling confused or overwhelmed by what estate planning even is, DON’T WORRY, Iffy is going to break it down simply for us. We talk about what estate planning even is, why it’s important, how to go about thinking about getting started with an estate plan, how it can impact your financial success in the long run, and leave a legacy for those around you.    This is such an important topic but one that is often forgotten about or ignored until it’s too late.

Instagram can be infuriating sometimes. It's a big game of feeling like you’re doing all the things and getting zero traction OR feeling the comparison and overwhelm because you know you’re NOT showing up as you should, but you’re overwhelmed with where to even START. You're lost when it comes to Instagram, and you feel like you can never beat that dang algorithm. When it comes to Instagram you feel like you just always need MORE. More followers. More time. More content. More engagement. And you’re tired.    TRUST US. We’ve been there. More times than you can count. We know how much Instagram helps our businesses, but it feels like a chore sometimes, one that can seem impossible to understand.   Today’s podcast episode is diving deeper than we ever have before on the foundational aspects of Instagram marketing. When it comes to this app, the struggles you have are probably around the hacks, the engagement boosts, getting followers to engage with you, and not knowing what to say.   What if we told you ALL of those problems could be solved by focusing on the ROOT system of Instagram. By focusing on the foundational strategies of HOW you show up, WHY you’re showing up, and WHAT you’re offering.   To beat the algorithm, we have to stop chasing likes, followers, and hashtags but create and approach the app with the perspective of crushing your Instagram marketing game once and for all.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/161-how-to-beat-the-instagram-algorithm-once-for-all The Instagram Major: www.theinstagrammajor.com Enrollment is only open from July 22th-28th   The Reels Minor: www.thereelsminor.com   Ep108: Why You Need to Pick a Niche: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/108-why-you-need-to-pick-a-niche/id1487265198?i=1000505763569   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Sick and tired of just dancing and pointing like a fool to grow on IG?   What if we told you there is another way?   It’s true. Now while there are always reasons for most of the trends on reels (including those with pointing and dancing) we also get that those aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. It can feel frustrating when you’re not the least bit wanting to join those bandwagons but feel that you don’t really have another option in order to grow. So then you give up.   Does that all sound familiar? Perfect, then today’s episode is just for you. Today we’re talking about REELS. But not just any Reels, Reels you can make that don’t involve dancing or pointing.    We start by going back to the basics, what the purpose of Reels is, and the strategy you need to keep in mind when creating them. Then, we dive into over 21 practical reel ideas you can start to use TODAY.   You’ll walk away with a BOATLOAD of ideas just waiting for you to create.

We are chatting with fellow podcaster Maria Failla. Maria is a “Plant Killer Turned Plant Lady” on a mission to help everyone successfully care for plants and make the world a kinder and greener place. After learning to care for plants successfully and experiencing the exponential joy caring for plants brought to her life, she founded the Bloom and Grow Radio Podcast to learn alongside her listeners as she interviews experts in all aspects of plant care.   For any of our listeners who might be like “Okay cool… Love plants. Love her… but why are we talking about plants on a business podcast?” We wanted to bring Maria on the show today because her story is FASCINATING and is SO relatable to anyone who has a hobby they love, that they wanna turn into a side hustle or monetize something they’re passionate about.   In today’s episode, we chat with Maria all about her journey from a plant killer to plant lady, how she started her podcast, the nitty-gritty behind what we need to start a podcast, how to monetize and grow your show organically, how to get advertisers for your show, and SO much more. And if you’re a fellow plant lover but also notorious plant killer (like us oops) stay tuned for the end cause we do a Plant 101 corner with Maria and she gives some killer advice on how to keep plants alive.   So whether you’re a plant lover and wanna learn more about how to care for plants, a budding entrepreneur who wants to know how to creatively turn a passion of yours into a stream of revenue, OR you’re a person who wants to start a podcast one day and doesn’t know where to start Maria is your lady.     Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/157-how-to-start-and-grow-a-podcast-with-maria-failla   Milk Street: www.milkstreetbaby.com For 10% off MilkStreet use code “heartandhustle” Anyword: www.anyword.com/heart  Anyword is free to try, and our friends there have also given our Heart fam 30% off of your first 3 months!   Bloom and Grow Radio Podcast    If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Now, whether this is your first episode here or you’ve been around since day one, let’s just give a quick recap of one of the #1 things we teach to build a brand that lasts: CONNECTION.   We’re firm believers in building a personal brand that allows you to connect with your customers. And with that, when it comes to Instagram, we talk a LOT about showing up as YOU (not just your product or service that you offer) and connecting with your audience on a human-to-human level.   But let us guess: the following thought has gone through your mind at one point or another: “but I don’t even know what to share?! My life is just…. Boring. No one wants to see that??”   Incorrect. We can guarantee there’s far more than you realize that people want to see, and it’s probably more your perspective that’s getting in your way of knowing what to share. So, in today’s episode, we’re going to tear down the mindset obstacle that’s holding you back so you can begin to create and share from a free place. We then dive into the nitty-gritty of what to post on IG where we LOAD UP your toolbelt with topics, ideas, and resources for you to use to create that long-lasting connection with your audience.   If you’re ready to stop feeling overwhelmed (or just lost) with posting personal content on Instagram, today’s episode is custom-made JUST FOR YOU.    Show notes:  https://theheartuniversity.com/156-what-to-post-on-instagram-when-you-feel-like-your-life-is-boring   Milk Street: www.milkstreetbaby.com For 10% off MilkStreet use code “heartandhustle”   Cayla Gray: https://caylagray.com/ Use the code HEART20 to get 20% off the entire site    The Caption Playbook: www.theheartuniversity.com/caption-playbook   Episode 004: The Biggest Branding Hack You’re Missing  Episode 048: Should I Have 1 Instagram or 2?

Today we’re back with another coaching episode with the lovely Polly Sellers, a wedding photographer from Columbus, Ohio.   Polly has been in business for 3 years now and went full time the week before our coaching call. When asked what she was struggling with most in her business she said:    “Stuck” is the perfect word for me right now. I feel overwhelmed with all the information out there. Sometimes I don’t know how to organize priorities in my business when there is so much you can do, and I don’t know what direction I should/want to be going in. I constantly feel like once I finally get something down, the next thing is popping up on Instagram or a new tool, etc, leaving me feeling like I’m behind. I also just hired my VA, and I LOVE how it's going, but sometimes I don’t know what tasks I should be giving her, and organizing that can get time-consuming and confusing.”   Does anyone relate??? Today we’re chatting with Polly on organization, finances, outsourcing, goal setting, and navigating loss and tragedy as a business owner. PHEW. We covered a LOT in this hour coaching call, but I think this episode is going to be SO valuable for you to listen in on. If you’re currently feeling overwhelmed with everything you could be doing in your business, keep listening. If you’re wondering what the heck to outsource to a virtual assistant, we got you, keep listening. And if you don’t know how to structure your goals and priorities in your business, then buckle up cause we’re tackling that with Polly too.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/155-live-coaching-call-what-to-do-when-youre-feeling-stuck-with-polly-sellers   nuud: http://nuudcare.com/discount/HEART&HUSTLE20   Use  code “HEART&HUSTLE20” for 20% off at checkout!  The Caption Playbook: www.theheartuniversity.com/caption-playbook If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along with Polly:  www.instagram.com/pollysellers_ www.pollysellers.com   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Who out there struggles to know what the HECK to say on Instagram? If you stare at your screen feeling worthless because NOTHING is coming to your brain to say, then this podcast episode was tailor-made for YOU.    One of the most common problems people struggle with when it comes to Instagram (or social media even) is not knowing what to post. We FEEL you, so much. Even now we have days where we look at our feed and our brain goes BLANK. Straight up there’s nothing of value happening in there and we feel like we have nothing to say. And then hopping on Instagram to see everything else others are putting out there often overwhelms us and we feel even worse about having nothing to say.    Please tell us we're not alone? Anyone else? If we just described the biggest dilemma you face when it comes to growing your Instagram, you are NOT alone. We ALL struggle with writer's block and just not knowing what to say at one point or another.    We want to help fix that.

DO YOU LIKE TO TRAVEL!?! Do you like unique business models?! Amazing. If you said yes to at least one of those, then today’s podcast interview is gonna make your week. Today we’re talking to the CEO of Scott’s Cheap Flights, Brian Kidwell.   If you haven’t heard about Scott’s Cheap Flights, we'd honestly be shocked. They’re a subscription email list company that sends out emails to their subscribers every month finding incredible deals on cheap flights.    Brian was a digital nomad who had always been interested in entrepreneurship and travel. After backpacking through Europe after college, Brian started a website focused on building a travel community where he would sell a bundle of deals on travel services. One thing led to another and Brian teamed up with Scott Keyes - the author at the time of a cheap travel ebook, and the two of them ended up founding Scott’s Cheap Flights which now has 30+ employees and around 1 million subscribers and growing.   Today we talk to Brian all about building Scott’s Cheap Flights. We ask him the ins and outs of an email list subscription program and how it works, building his team and company culture, how they navigated the pandemic in 2020 as a business built around travel, what he’s learned working with a business partner, and so much more. This conversation is not only fascinating and so cool, but it’s also incredibly inspiring as a business owner to think outside the box, be innovative, build a company mission and culture of honor and value, and so much more. I know I’m walking away ready to do more and do better and I know without a doubt you’ll feel the same.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/151-how-to-find-cheap-flights-with-co-founder-of-scotts-cheap-flights-brian-kidwell   Lightroom Editing Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   Pricing Guide Freebie: www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   Follow along with Scott’s Cheap Flights:  www.scottscheapflights.com www.tiktok.com/@scottscheapflights  www.instagram.com/scottscheapflights   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

This is about to be a jam-packed episode you do not wanna miss out on.

Today’s guest needs no introduction because she’s incredible. When we first started this show back in November 2019, we wrote a list of our dream guests we wanted to interview, this woman’s name was on that list. And here we are. The day has come. Today we had the honor of chatting with Morgan Harper Nichols.  Morgan Harper Nichols is a popular Instagram poet and artist who has created her life’s work around the stories of others. Morgan’s Instagram feed has garnered a loyal online community, and she is the author of All Along You Were Blooming, and her recent book How Far You’ve Come. Known for its lyrical tone and vibrant imagery, Morgan’s work is an organic expression of the grace and hope we’ve been given in this world. Morgan has also performed as a vocalist on several GRAMMY-nominated projects and written for various artists, including a Billboard #1 single performed by her sister, Jamie-Grace. Morgan is often on the road creating, teaching, and performing, in hopes of spreading her unique inspirational message and inviting others into her creative process. If you’ve been on Instagram for any amount of time, we can guarantee you’ve seen Morgan’s art and words either on your explore page or shared via a friend. She has such a way with words and art that speaks to people’s souls and makes them feel not alone in whatever they’re going through. We chatted with her today about how she became a writer and artist if she always saw herself pursuing creativity as a career, where she gets her inspiration for her work from, her diagnosis with autism earlier this year, and advice for someone walking through a season of grief or unknown. Her words today will speak so deeply to your heart, inspiring you on your journey in big and beautiful ways.    Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/147-finding-inspiration-in-the-stories-of-life-with-morgan-harper-nichols   Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   Follow along with Morgan:  www.instagram.com/morganharpernichols www.tiktok.com/@morganharpernichols www.youtube.com/user/itsmorganmusic   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.     Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity    

We’re getting real. Like very real. We’re going countercultural and speaking some truth that a LOT of people need to hear. We’re talking about manifestation.    Especially in the creative entrepreneurship “girl boss” industry you’ve probably heard people use that word a lot. And if not the word manifestation itself, you’ve probably heard words associated with the concept creep into the language people use like “vibes”, “energy”, “universe”, “affirmations”, “vibrations”, “I manifested it,” etc.   We have a LOT to say on this topic because honestly, manifestation works. It’s popular because there IS some truth to it. Absolutely. The words and thoughts we speak over ourselves DO have power and they CAN bring about change. Yet there’s a fine line where manifestation is just not it and becomes off base to the Biblical truth God speaks in the Bible.   If you’ve listened to any of our past episodes or have followed us for any amount of time, you know we’re speaking to this topic based on our worldview and beliefs based on Scripture. Wonder why we believe manifestation completely misses the mark?

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your photography business and wondered how to continue to scale and grow or if you’re a photographer feeling overwhelmed or exhausted by all the behind-the-scenes business portions of the job and just wanting to go out and do what you love: SHOO! Today’s episode is a freaking goldmine of information. We’re chatting: Associate Photography Teams with the incredible Grace Troutman!!!   Now if you don’t know her, Grace is a Midwest-based destination wedding photographer and business educator, who’s traveled to Iceland, Ireland, Hawaii, Colorado, California, and Washington to shooting destination weddings. Over the years as she desired to scale her photography business, she slowly built a powerful team of associate photographers to shoot under her business Grace Troutman Photography.

If you struggle with blogging and knowing how to get your blogs seen, read, or even know what to blog about. We’re about to give some great tips for you!    There are some major blogging mistakes we see almost daily with entrepreneurs, and we’re about to call them out and then supply you with strategies and tools to master blogging once and for all.   Here’s the deal with blogging: it’s one of the most powerful ways for people to learn from you, connect with you, and find you from a simple google search, Pinterest search, and the best part?? IT’S FREE! Nearly all you need is a website with a blog, but it’s also one of the most underrated tools in marketing. A lot of people say “Wait do I really even need a blog?” “Is it even worth it?”    Our answers to that are a resounding YES. However, it’s a completely different ball game than social media marketing. With social media, you’re often in the short game, creating content to be consumed immediately with not much shelf life. With blogging, you’re playing the long game. The better you make your blogs NOW, the better they’ll do for you in the future.   Have we convinced you of how rad blogging is yet? If not, keep reading. Blogging is a GREAT way to market in your business and we’re about to help you correct the BIGGEST mistakes you might be making in your blog. OR if you haven’t started your blog yet, EVEN BETTER.   Show notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/142-5-blogging-mistakes-you-might-be-making   The Heart Shop Apparel: www.theheartuniversity.com/apparel   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Today we have the incredible Casanova Brooks on the podcast, and when we say don’t go anywhere - you NEED to hear his story - we mean it.    To give you a little insight, Casanova is an award-winning entrepreneur, author, high-energy keynote speaker, and real estate professional. Through his battles with adversity in many stages of his life including stage four lymphoma cancer, to losing his mother, job, and home in a matter of a couple of weeks, even with having very limited resources Casanova learned to develop a bulletproof mindset to thrive and succeed in life and business. From producing 46 deals and $8 million in his first year in real estate to now owning multiple businesses, he has been an action-taker in every sense of the word. Casanova now focuses on empowering others to focus on developing their mindset to become the best version of themselves to thrive in their own lives.     On today’s show, we chatted with Casanova about his story, where he started, everything he went through in life, and how he continuously fought through adversity after adversity in his life. When you hear his story, you almost can’t believe where he is today from where he came from. Today he shares with us the mindset that gave him hope to continue amid challenges and grief, to whom he attributes his character development, how to keep going when you feel unmotivated, and what advice he has on how to lead a life of impact over income.

I feel like I try everything out there — showing up on social media consistently, providing an amazing client experience, quality photos, etc. Help!”   Today we went through the backend of Allie’s business from her client communication process, her initial email response, her Instagram marketing strategy, her website, and more.    If you’re in a similar situation as Allie, you feel like you’re doing ALL the things, but you’re still coming up short with bookings and you’re feeling frustrated or discouraged… listen today.

How do I know how to find them?   This episode is here to help you answer all those questions!

If you’re a productivity nerd like us, you’re about to be in for a TREAT with today’s episodeeee!!! We have the honor of talking to one of our favorite authors today - a man who’s transformed our views on productivity and technology - Cal Newport.   Cal is an associate professor of computer science at Georgetown University, where he specializes in the theory of distributed systems, as well as a New York Times bestselling author who writes for a broader audience about the intersection of technology and culture. He’s the author of seven books, including Digital Minimalism and Deep Work, which have been published in over thirty languages. He’s also a regular contributor on these topics to national publications such as The New Yorker, The New York Times, and Wired, and is a frequent guest on NPR.   Soooo basically, Cal’s a genius and we’re so excited to have today’s conversation with him.   In today’s episode, we dive into the topic of Cal’s latest book, A World Without Email. You’re gonna get a nice kick in the pants today on how you’re spending your time with the tech in your business (or rather, how you’re likely wasting a lot of it) and how to change that. We talk about how you might be feeling “productive” by checking email every 6 minutes during a workday, but how that is destroying your productivity. Cal breaks down what he calls the “hyperactive hive mind workflow” and how it’s detrimental to the bottom line in your business. He gives you tangible tools, steps, and examples for you to take home and begin to implement.   SO if you’re the person who is spending their entire workday bouncing from emails to social media to slack channels back to emails constantly checking and responding to people….

If you’re a person who struggles with knowing your identity and worth outside of your career. If you feel worthless if no one buys from you, or if a launch isn’t as successful as you hoped, and you struggle with having a firm identity in who you are, today’s episode is for you. We had the absolute honor of chatting with Zim Flores. Named a leader using her voice and talent to elevate humanity by Oprah Winfrey, Zim is the founder of Italicist, an online styling service that helps women discover modest clothing they love, without the time commitment. Previously she was the CEO of Travel Noire, a boutique travel company reaching millions of travelers each month. In 2017 she sold the company to pursue Christ. A serial entrepreneur, Zim is a Forbes"30 Under 30" awardee who has been featured in the New York Times, ELLE, Glamour, TIME, and NPR, among others. She often writes in faraway places and lives with her husband in Illinois. Zim talks about her story of not feeling like she belonged, feeling hardship as a child to sudden and extreme success. How she navigated and found her identity in who God says she is amidst insane success. Why she gave up a wildly successful business even though everyone around her told her not to (and why it was the best decision she could’ve made) AND so many more things: like how to be a believer AND a business owner, how to have big goals & desires as a Christian, and so much more.  Seriously. Zim has SOOOO much goodness to share, and we promise after listening to this you’re gonna wanna be best friends with this girl. She has a way of speaking in such a way that you feel the presence of God and His peace. We know this episode is gonna bless you so much.   Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/131-struggle-with-putting-your-worth-identity-in-what-you-do-click-play-with-zim-flores   Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    The Heart Contracts: www.theheartuniversity.com/shop   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow & Connect with Zim:  www.instagram.com/zimism www.daretobloombook.com www.zimism.com www.restfromanywhere.com The Bloom Podcast  Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

If you are ready to be wrapped up in the warmest, most loving hug of your life AND YET given a shove of encouragement and truth… wow okay wow. Listen to today’s show.   Today we have the INCREDIBLE honor of talking to one of the most incredible women.   Author, speaker, and podcast host, Mary Marantz, grew up in a single-wide trailer in rural West Virginia. The first of her immediate family to go to college, she went on to earn a law degree from the nation's top-ranked law school, Yale. After ditching six-figure-salary law firm offers in London and New York, she started a business with her husband, Justin. Together they have built a successful online education platform for creative entrepreneurs. She is also the host of the highly ranked and popular podcast The Mary Marantz Show. Mary released her first book, "Dirt: Growing Strong Roots in What Makes the Broken Beautiful," in September. She lives in an 1880s fixer-upper by the sea in New Haven, Connecticut, with her husband, Justin, and their two very fluffy golden retrievers, Goodspeed and Atticus.   GOSH, we have so many things to say about today’s interview, but if you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong somewhere because of dirt in your past or where you grew up, or that you have to hide parts of your story to fit in… this show is gonna wreck you in all the best ways. Today we talk to Mary about her story growing up in the dirt of West Virginia, how our experiences as a child have such an impact on us as adults, struggling with imposter syndrome and encouragement in how to overcome it, and how to handle feeling like you’re “betraying” your past or upbringing by chasing “more.”   Show notes:  http://theheartuniversity.com/129-embracing-your-dirt-being-the-most-polished-in-the-room-with-mary-marantz   Lightroom Challenge: www.theheartuniversity.com/challenge   www.theheartuniversity.com/guide-freebie   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along with Mary:  www.marymarantz.com www.thebookdirt.com www.themarymarantzshow.com www.instagram.com/marymarantz   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Now one of the BIGGEST questions we get asked ALL the time is “How do I get bookings?”    That question is SO loaded because it can’t be answered with a simple 3 step formula and boom, you have bookings! How a business owner gets sales or bookings deals with the way you’re marketing yourself and your business, your branding, is your communication crystal clear and speaking to WHO you want to book you? There’s SO much that goes into how you get bookings and sales, and that’s a HUGE goal with this show is to cover all the different facets of marketing and business in each episode. Specifically, in today’s episode, we’re covering how to add VALUE to your business because when you’re able to communicate your value, show your value, and uplevel your client’s experience with working with you, you WILL get sales. The biggest question for you today is:   What value are you communicating to your ideal clients? How are you proving to potential customers that YOU are the person to solve their problem?

Have you ever hit burnout as a business owner? Ever dealt with anxiety, depression, or overwhelmed because you’re trying to hustle your business into success, but simultaneously driving yourself into the ground? Today’s episode is for YOU if so.  We had our dear friend Amanda Coker on the show to share her story and to give you a much-needed dose of wisdom and encouragement. Amanda is an Atlanta-based photographer and entrepreneur; she is the founder of Dash Photography, a wedding + senior photography team, and Revīv Retreats, wellness retreats for women in business leadership. She believes sharing her journey with mental health and business brings purpose to the pain, and empowers women to find freedom in the midst of theirs.   We talked about SO much with Amanda today. Her story of hitting complete and total burnout mentally about 4 years into her business because she wasn’t caring for her body, her time, her relationships, and sacrificing it all on the altar of achievement. She chats about how anxiety and depression stemmed from that and the steps she took to take back her life and business. Near the end of the conversation she shares how 2020 personally affected her, and we can guarantee you will relate to even a little bit of her story.  It’s powerful. It’s real. It’s encouraging.  Amanda holds nothing back, and we hope after you listen to this episode, you won’t feel alone if you’re struggling with overwhelm, anxiety, depression, and hitting burnout.

We're chatting about something we think we all struggle with at one point or another to one extent or another. And wow it’s a big one. Victim Mentality.  Our mindsets are one of the most powerful tools (or land mines) we have in life. Having the right mindsets often leads to massive, long-lasting success. It’s not just fluffy words and “you can do it” attitudes… it’s deeply seeded psychological responses that dictate our actions in life. We’re diving into one of the killer mindsets that can destroy us if we’re not careful. The reality is, victim mentality keeps you from living the life God called you to live. We’re believing lies that dictate our identity, worth, and abilities. It’s one of the biggest roadblocks keeping you from success. We talk about how to know if you’re struggling with a victim mentality and then dive into how to fight and overcome it. If you’re ready to stop sitting around letting lies control your life, you’re gonna want to listen to this episode. It is a tough-love episode but is also something that everyone struggles with in one form or another. It’s also something that could be perceived as harsh, we’re not wanting to call you out, but it also can prevent you from living out the life that God called you into. Step out of living like a victim and living in the true calling that God called you to. That is our heart behind this episode. It’s to empower you and the best kick in the pants with the love possible and is a reminder for us as well.   Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/122-living-in-victim-mentality-heres-how-to-overcome-that   HoneyBook: share.honeybook.com/heart In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    www.theheartuniversity.com/courses   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.

He tells a story of the latest conference he attended and what the difference was in conversations at a table full of 6 & 7 figure entrepreneurs, vs a table full of 8 figure entrepreneurs.  We also get into the fear behind knowing when to get into coaching, mentoring, and selling your knowledge online.

A few weeks ago we were chatting with a photographer friend about a heartbreaking horror story she had heard about. It inspired us to start chatting about wedding photography specific horror stories on our Instagrams. And the messages we got following the discussion were HEARTBREAKING AND DISGUSTING.    SOOOO many people sent messages about their experience with their wedding photographer that left a bad taste in their mouth and regret every time they looked at the photos from their wedding day.    It made us realize that we do NOT talk enough about client experience and treating people well in the service-based industry, especially the photography industry. About a month ago we did episode 104 which was chatting business horror stories in general. And today’s episode is more of the same - but this time specifically just within the wedding industry.     Show notes:http://theheartuniversity.com/112-business-hor…tography-edition/    www.theheartuniversity.com/shop https://theheartuniversity.com/content-minor   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.     Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Today’s episode is gonna be a refreshing, inspiring girl chat and you’re gonna wanna grab the drink or snack of your choice and buckle up for the goodness. We have the incredible honor of chatting with the beautiful Jaci Marie Smith. As a talented photographer from an early age, Jaci Marie Smith always had an entrepreneurial spirit and an eye for capturing the beauty around her. Today, her creative eye propels her work as a multi-platform social media content creator. Jaci co-hosts her podcast What We Said, is the co-owner of two vacation rental cabins, in addition to creating and running her well-known brand on YouTube, Instagram, and Tik Tok. In May, Jaci just launched her newest venture: a self-help course titled Balanced Boss, where she coaches men + women across the world to realize their full potential in both health and business. This girl is a boss and today’s conversation shows that so clearly. We sat down and talked to Jaci about everything from how to create consistent, quality content across multiple platforms to her tips on creating cohesive, on-brand photos, picking shoot locations, how to get into becoming a social media influencer, and her thoughts on Insta Reels vs TikTok. THEN (yeah, there’s more!!) we took a deep dive into her thoughts on confidence, comparison, productivity, discipline, and so much more.

I have a question for you. Who here has started saving for retirement? Raise your hand. Or don’t. Cause you haven’t. No shame. Another question. Who here knows how to pay themselves as an entrepreneur? Especially one whose work might be seasonal and fluctuates throughout the year? Raise your hand. Or don’t. No shame. Again. If your hand didn’t raise on either of those, this episode is for you. And lowkey even if your hand is raised, this episode is still gonna be gold.  We’re chatting with Michael Eckstein, an accountant, and business advisor. He helps small business owners increase profitability, fix cash flow, and create a business strategy, so they can enjoy more date nights, take more vacations, and build their wealth.  Today we sat down and chatted with him all about cash flow as an entrepreneur, knowing how to pay yourself, figuring out your hourly rate, and how we should go about saving for retirement. Because as entrepreneurs we don’t have that nice 9-5 company taking money out of our paycheck each month for a 401k. We gotta be proactive and do that ourselves. Michael breaks all of that down for us, and we have just an honest, real chat about money, saving, and legacy.    Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/105-how-to-save-…michael-eckstein/   Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   https://ecksteinadvisory.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-eckstein/     Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

A few weeks ago we popped into the Heart & Hustle Facebook group (if you’re not in there, come join! It’s a party. Link in show notes.) and we asked you to submit your business horror stories. We asked you to submit from the perspective of you as a client hiring or buying something, and not necessarily a business owner. So any experience you’ve had with ANY type of business that wasn’t ideal, that made you as the client not feel valued or respected.  Today we’re diving in and chatting about your stories and turning them into a learning opportunity. Giving advice on how we could learn from each experience to make all of our businesses better! We intentionally asked for your submissions to be anonymous because the LAST thing we want to do is call out certain people or businesses. NOT AT ALL. Our intention with this episode is to learn from anonymous stories, on how to make our client experience better and ultimately be more successful business owners. We want to make sure that it is anonymous and know we are sitting here not trying to shame anyone as a business owner. We have done stupid mistakes and want to use this as an opportunity from a wider pool to teach from and how we can all improve. Things we aren’t even aware of. We want to all learn and grow together and are not trying to call out anybody.      Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/104-your-business-horror-stories/   Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

2020 MAN AMMIRIGHT?!?! It’s been a crazy year for just about every single human on earth, us included, and today we wanted to talk about it. Well, not necessarily 2020 SPECIFICALLY, but in a roundabout way, yes. Today we’re talking about the unexpected. Those “plot twist” moments in life that leave your head spinning and your plans in ruins. I think we can ALL relate to that after this year, but what if we told you that the unexpected doesn’t necessarily mean something BAD. Say what??  Today we’re gonna have a good old-fashioned friend-chat talking about this crazy whirlwind of a year and all the curve-balls it's thrown at everyone, business owners in particular, and how to not just tolerate unexpected plot twists, but to HARNESS them to excel, grow, and succeed. It’s about to be a killer episode, so if you’re ready to head into 2021 with a fire under your butt, ready to succeed… keep listening!     Show notes:  http://theheartuniversity.com/102-how-to-utilize-the-unexpected/ Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle   Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity  

Welcome back to another episode my friend! Today we’re doing something a little different and fun. Last week we on Instagram asked you to give us your assumptions about us. And then we intentionally didn’t look at the answers at all. So that way we could give you our honest, first impression reading them for the first time on this episode. It’s gonna be super fun and just a more lighthearted episode. If you want to get to know us even more, probably more than we’ve shared before, keep listening. You might get some tea today, I don’t know. So grab a glass of wine or a cup of coffee (whenever you’re listening to this haha) and sit down, while we answer your assumptions about us. It’s about to get real.

We’ve made it to our 100th episode. What EVEN. This podcast has been such a fun aspect of our job, and we love getting on the mic twice a week giving you guys business education, life inspiration, and so much more. We thought for a while about what we wanted to do for our 100th episode. A lot of podcasts sometimes do an epic guest for their 100th episode or they do little snippets of past incredible episodes. Or they reflect on the last year all eloquently and what not. Well, we’re doing none of that. In true Evie and Lindsey fashion, we felt like the best way to commemorate our 100th episode was to give you a whole episode of our outtakes from the past 100 episodes. Our goofs. Our bloopers. Our spazzy selves. You’re getting ALL of it and more today. Fair warning: there’s no education here today. If you’re just here for the biz hacks, we have nearly 99 episodes for that (go listen to any one of them), but this episode is purely just for laughs. If you’ve followed us for a while you know that’s very on-brand for us. We love to serve you hard business education, but in a super fun way. And we never take ourselves too seriously.     Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/100-our-100th-ep…fore-youre-ready/   Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle   Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

It’s just me (Lindsey) today because I am getting pretty vulnerable, real, and raw today. I’m sharing very openly my miscarriage story.  If you didn’t know I went through a miscarriage around the end of September/early October. Taking off a few weeks from the podcast, I knew when I came back I wanted to do an episode about my story. Mainly because so many women go through miscarriages and I did not realize that until I was one of them. Sharing my story on Instagram and receiving so many messages from women that resonated with me.  That is my heart with this episode, to show up vulnerably and share my story in a way that if you have been through this hell also, that you don’t feel alone. That this permits you to feel. Or maybe you’ve gone through another type of heartbreak and resonate with my story in that way. Or you might be somebody who has not gone through this at all but know somebody. Or you’re just listening to this episode and I hope in that case if this ever happens to you or a friend in the future you might know what to expect or how to grieve with your friend.  Our podcast name is Heart & Hustle. We focus a lot on the hustle but this episode is going to be one million percent the Heart. If you are in a season of being pregnant or just recently found out you miscarried, something where this episode might be triggering I would just please recommend that you stop. If this topic is in any way triggering to you, I don’t want this to unnecessarily trigger somebody but I do want to share it in a way that connects with YOU if you listen and to not feel alone.   Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/097-lindseys-miscarriage-story/   Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/heartandhustle   Save 10% off your first month with Better Help!    Contracts: www.theheartcontracts.com Use the link above for 10% off!   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   August’s Playlist   Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

On the show today we’re welcoming Paige Griffith for the second time! Whoop! She’s been on the show once before on episode 23, and we had her back today to do a deep dive on all things contracts, especially contracts for photographers.  A little bit about Paige, she’s the founder of The Legal Paige, a virtual law firm working with online businesses and wedding industry professionals. She is a certified Juris Doctor barred in the state of Montana and holds a double B.A. in Economics and Political Science.

Her mission is to create an online space where the law isn’t so scary and entrepreneurs can get legally legit in no time. In this episode, Paige answers some big questions like “why are contracts so important? What’s the big deal?” “Do I need a contract at the very beginning of my business?” “What about if I’m just doing business or providing a service for a close family or best friend? Are contracts necessary there?” She also answers where she recommends getting a contract if you don’t have one at all. It’s a really good juicy episode.

Ever wonder what the HECK to say when you reach out to someone via email wanting to work with them in some capacity? Whether you’re reaching out for a partnership, a collaboration, wanting to work with them, wanting to offer your services to them, etc… HOW you go about doing it can literally be the difference between them saying yes to you or them deleting your email thinking it’s spammy.  This episode is a MUST listen for ANY business owner because when running a business - it’s essential to network, create relationships with fellow entrepreneurs, as well as reaching out to partner, collab, and work with someone in any capacity.

We sat down with Emma today to talk about the topic of her new book Winging It. In Emma’s story, there's a LOT you can relate to!

Today we have one of the most financially successful guests we’ve ever had on the show. Rob Moore is a beast of business.   Rob lives and loves entrepreneurship and property investing. He is on a mission to change the way people think about business and aims to support people around the globe through the Rob Moore foundation.   Rob co-founded Progressive Property – the UK’s leading property training company – and Progressive Success with his business partner, before becoming the host of the wildly successful podcast The “Disruptive Entrepreneur” and now The “Money” Podcast, listened to in 192 countries worldwide. This has grown into a complete digital agency: Progressive Media.    A self-made multi-millionaire by the age of 30, having risen to riches from being heavily in debt in his 20s, Rob has retired and un-retired countless times, each time creating new innovation, vision, book or the entire company. He continues to disrupt as an entrepreneur and businessman, with interests ranging from property development to public speaking and digital media. He is a writer, communicator, social media influencer, and philanthropist. His 8 books have been translated into more than a dozen languages and received over 9,000 reviews!   He is a highly sought-after public speaker, having given 1,200 speeches in the last decade and held 2 world records for the longest individual speech marathon.

All his profits from his book, Money,  goto the foundation.   Today’s conversation is a raw, real, and vulnerable look at what it looks like to be an entrepreneur chasing THINGS, and yet when you reach those things, realize that’s not all there is.

Today we got to talk to one of our best friends in the world. If you follow us on Instagram you’ve probably heard us talk about her, the wonderful and amazing Sena Nelson.   Sena runs a lifestyle and motherhood social media brand where she focuses on sharing content of her family, faith, nature, and living a life of simplicity. She built her brand as a lifestyle mom blogger and over the course of the years has now turned it into a full time job as a content creator, influencer, course creator, and preset seller. She’s a momma to four kids with one on the way and her husband Eric is in the US navy. Sena and her family have spent the last 8 years in Hawaii, and recently moved to London last year. They can currently be found traveling Europe and documenting life as expats over the next few years over on her instagram account @senaenelson.    Lindsey met Sena when she first moved to Hawaii, and they clicked IMMEDIATELY. She instantly became a fast friend and they ended up being neighbors on the island. Over the years of getting to know her, Lindsey watched her successfully navigate building an online brand around family, motherhood, and lifestyle content creation. That’s what we sat down to chat with her about!   Sena absolutely CRUSHES the very specific niche of “mommy-blogging” on Instagram and she has a world of wisdom to share when it comes to that. In today’s episode, we chat all things growing your Instagram account as a family influencer, collaborating and working with companies, balancing motherhood while also running an online business, navigating the challenging waters of having your job be capturing your family while also trying to stay in the moment as a mother, and so much more. We dive into all of that and basically have an hour long girl chat so grab some wine, popcorn, or drink or snack of choice, make sure your kiddos are napping so you can fully focus on the wisdom Sena shares.   Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/085-motherhood-and-growing-your-account-as-a-family-influencer-with-sena-nelson   HoneyBook: share.honeybook.com/heart  In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    www.theheartuniversity.com/apps   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   www.senaenelson.com https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUa_5TeTEe23bIXeB8unvXA   Follow along: www.instagram.com/senaenelson  www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Are you the person that struggles to stay organized? Start to implement a plan but then find yourself back to where you started a couple weeks later?  If so, buckle up as we are going to help you reorganize your work and life!  Our special guest is one of our favorite people, Rachel Hannah. A former teacher turned executive assistant, who is now the right-hand woman for Evie, Lindsey, and The Heart University. She basically does EVERYTHING for us! She saves us so much time, our lives, and our sanity. We literally could not do work without her and would have way less of a life without this woman working with us and alongside.  Today Rachel will be diving into a conversation all about organization. If there is anyone in the world who we consider a master of this, it would be Rachel. We will talk about the four things that we think are most vital to mastering the organization and saving time in your life. Including tips on utilizing schedules, how to stay focused, the importance of play (I know shocking right?!), and meal planning for your weeks.  We are so excited about this conversation because Rachel and Evie are extreme opposites in personality. Rachel is naturally structured and organized- Enneagram One, while Evie is naturally a hot mess express- Enneagram Seven. Bringing two very different perspectives to organizations that will help anyone out there that is wanting to master it.  Trust me if we can learn how to be organized and embrace structure.

Today’s guest is one of our best friends in the photography industry… none other than Dawn Charles. Dawn is an Oregon-based wedding photographer and business educator. She is a California girl at heart, wife to the cutest police officer in town (her words, not ours!), and mom to her two favorite little girls.  At home in Bend, Oregon, you can usually find her playing with her kids or defending herself in Nerf gun fights against her husband, or traveling the world photographing weddings.

When we say YES to everything, this means we are saying NO to something.    When you say yes to a client who you know doesn’t 100% fit with your business, you’re saying NO to peace of mind in the future. If you’re saying yes to a business opportunity that looks flashy in the moment, you’re saying NO to time spent with family later. So many of us KNOW we need to say no more often, but few know where to even start.   NO isn’t a dirty word. It’s a word that when utilized WELL,  brings SO much peace and freedom to your life and business. So keep listening to find out HOW to tackle the scary word… NO.   Show Notes: https://theheartuniversity.com/030-how-to-say-no-when-its-not-the-right-fit   HoneyBook: www.share.honeybook.com/heart In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    www.theheartuniversity.com/content   If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.

Today Lindsey and Evie welcome one of their best friends in the photography industry, the queen of adventurous elopements and an advocate for the outdoors, Abbi Hearne.   Abbi is an adventurer, outdoor advocate, climber, skydiver, and photographer based in the Utah desert. She and her husband Callen run The Hearnes Adventure Photography, specializing in intimate weddings and elopements all over the American west but mainly in Moab, Yosemite National Park, and Alaska. They lived on the road full time for three and a half years and recently bought a house in Moab where they now spend Spring and Fall while still traveling 6+ months of the year. Abbi has built her business and lifestyle around adventure and time in the places she loves most. While her business thrives she emphasizes her own love of the outdoors, trying to never become “too busy” to enjoy life outside of work! The Hearnes are at the top of their niche, often setting the course for others pursuing adventure wedding photography, and have done so in non-traditional ways that go far beyond the tempting all-in mentality of early entrepreneurship. They have redefined the world of elopements, pushed the boundaries of adventure in wedding clothes, and done so while falling even more in love with the environment and the landscapes that drew them to this business in the first place.    They dive ALL into how Abbi navigated her wedding photography business from Houston, Texas shooting big weddings to what she’s known for now: serving the niche of epic, high end, adventurous elopement weddings. They discuss practical ways she raised her pricing over time, how she became a lover and advocate for protecting the outdoors, AND how to balance the leave no trace stance as a photographer whose job it is to shoot in the outdoors. Abbi brings such a unique and NECESSARY perspective to being a destination wedding photographer. If you’re a photographer who has always dreamed of traveling and shooting destination elopements in especially beautiful places, this episode is a MUST listen.   Show Notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/009-destination-adventure-photography-living-on-the-road-with-abbi-hearne   HoneyBook: www.share.honeybook.com/heart In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Follow along: www.thehearnes.com https://www.facebook.com/thehearnesphotography/ www.instagram.com/thehearnes www.instagram.com/abbihearne www.instagram.com/callenhearne www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

The Instagram algorithm is hard enough to figure out without the added pressure of figuring out what the heck we want to say in our captions. Writing can seem scary and oftentimes it seems so much easier to post a pretty photo with a short, witty caption that means nothing and move on. But, if you aren’t writing meaningful stories that engage people, you’re losing half of your potential audience out there.
