Ep. 32 Conversations, Not Content What Actually Creates Momentum

Ep. 38: Leading Yourself Before You Lead Your Business | with Cara Nance

Before you can confidently lead a business, you have to learn to lead yourself. In this episode, I sit down with leadership coach Cara Nance to explore why self-leadership is one of the most overlooked skills in entrepreneurship. We talk about the habits, mindset, and daily decisions that help business owners navigate uncertainty, build confidence, and make progress even when they don't have all the answers. Whether you're just starting your business or feeling stuck in your growth, this conversation will remind you that the way you lead yourself directly influences the way you lead your business. In this episode, we discuss: * What self-leadership really means for entrepreneurs * Why confidence is built through action, not before it * How to make decisions without waiting until you feel "ready" * Daily habits that strengthen your leadership * Practical ways to stay grounded when business feels slow or uncertain Connect with Cara Nance: https://tutumleadershipcoaching.com/ [https://tutumleadershipcoaching.com/] https://tutumleadershipcoaching.com/tutum-talk-podcast [https://tutumleadershipcoaching.com/tutum-talk-podcast] https://www.linkedin.com/in/caranance/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/caranance/] If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another entrepreneur who needs this reminder today.

Ep. 37: The Business that Made Me a Coach

For over six years, I was a virtual assistant. I always knew it wasn't the destination, but I didn't know yet what it was. In this episode, I get personal about how I actually became a coach. I talk about the "10K month" promises that didn't work for me, and the moment I realized everyone's timeline is genuinely different, no matter what the online gurus tell you. I also get into what the messy middle really looks like. Not the version you see in a highlight reel, but the actual stretch where you're still figuring things out while still showing up. No fantasies, no inflated timeline. Just an honest look at how I got here, and what actually helps you move through your own version of this.

Ep. 36: The Difference Between Activity & Progress

Being busy and making progress can feel like the same thing, but they're not the same, and mixing them up is one of the sneakiest ways an early-stage business can stall without you even noticing.  In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between activity that feels productive and progress that actually moves you toward your next client.  We'll talk about why busy work is so seductive, what real progress tends to look like (hint: it's often less exciting than you'd expect), and I'll share a simple filter you can run any task through before you commit your time to it. If you've ever ended a long week wondering what you actually accomplished, this one's for you.

Ep. 35: Momentum Doesn't Feel Like Momentum

If you've been showing up consistently in your business — creating content, sending follow-ups, having conversations — and it still feels like nothing is happening, this episode is for you. In this episode, I'm getting honest about something I wish someone had told me earlier: momentum rarely feels the way we think it should. It doesn't arrive with a flood of inquiries or a surge of engagement. Most of the time, it feels slow, repetitive, and sometimes even discouraging. I share what a particularly quiet season in my own business looked like, why the doubt that crept in was so hard to shake, and the one question I learned to ask myself before considering changing everything. We also talk about the dangerous middle phase- that stretch where you've started, you're putting in the effort, but the results don't seem to match yet- and why that phase is often building far more than it appears to be. If things feel slow right now, this episode is your reminder that slow doesn't mean stuck. And quiet doesn't mean nothing is happening. Reflection question for this week: What's one thing you've kept doing even though it doesn't seem to be working yet — and what would it look like to give it just a little more time?

Ep. 34: Designing a Business and Life That Truly Fits You

In this episode of My Entrepreneurial Journey with Yaritza Báez, I’m joined by Leslie Gaudet for a conversation that will resonate deeply with women who have built successful careers but feel exhausted, unfulfilled, or ready for something different. We talk about what it really means to design a business and life that truly fits you not the ideal version you see online, but one that aligns with your values, energy, and real-life responsibilities. Leslie shares her perspective on the internal shifts that happen when women begin to question their current path, especially those coming from structured careers like the legal field, and the tension between stability and the desire for change. We also explore practical ways to begin making that transition without feeling like you’re throwing everything away. If you’ve ever felt like something needs to change, but you’re not sure where to start, this conversation will give you both perspective and a place to begin.
