Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2326272/fan_mail/new] In this episode of Be Your Own G, Georgette sits down with Yari Mitchell and Jenna Farr, co founders of Launch Lab Partners, to talk about what actually makes a client agency relationship work, and why most of them quietly fall apart. They break down the biggest mistakes founders make when hiring marketing support, why marketing does not start at launch, and what it really means to be a true partner instead of a yes person. From fundraising decks to clinical trials to commercialization, Yari and Jenna explain why your “customer” changes long before you ever sell a product, and how smart companies think about marketing from day one. The conversation also gets real about entrepreneurship, boundaries, betting on yourself, and why work life balance is a myth. If you are building something, hiring an agency, or thinking about starting your own, this episode is a masterclass in partnership, trust, and doing business your way.

The Real Reason Therapy Isn’t Working for Families ft. Lauren Barnett

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2326272/fan_mail/new] What if your teen isn’t moody, they’re just exhausted, and we keep trying to talk at the worst possible moment? In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Barnett, therapist, entrepreneur, and founder of Family Consultants of Westport. Lauren helps families find the right mental health support instead of wasting time and money on the wrong fit. We talk about what really shifted once phones and social media entered teen life, why parents feel constantly overwhelmed, and the biggest communication mistake most families make without realizing it. We also get into Lauren’s book, Don’t Tell My Mom That I Love Her, a sharp, funny, and painfully accurate look at the mother daughter dynamic, told through three perspectives, the daughter, the mom’s advice, and what mom actually says after she leaves the room. If you’re raising a tween or teen, this episode will make you laugh, feel called out, just a little, and rethink how timing and listening matter more than saying the perfect thing.
