What in the Montecito (feat. Launch talk)
Welcome back to the show! THANK YOU for listening. We reached 100 downloads in the first week! You all are amazing. Today Rachel is sharing a bit of Royal watcher energy coupled with launch talk - how brands make new offers and officially extend their invitations and happenings. From the micro-brand to a royal one, this episode covers the key things that happen with a launch, the number one question someone has when choosing to follow along or be a customer with a new venture, and the job of the person launching.

Taking on the Tradwives
Welcome back to the show! Is Ballerina Farm today’s Newlyweds? Rach takes it way back to the early 2000’s (2003 to be exact) when the first reality television show of its kind set out to "casually" remake the image of pop star, Jessica Simpson. You could say Rachel has been a witness to the influencer industry since that moment as a 14-year-old. Join today’s show for an exposé of the contradiction within the #tradwives movement as entrepreneurial women continue to look for positive examples for inspiration yet are unknowingly absorbing marketing through this movement's strategic simplified living and relatability.
THANK YOU for leaving a 5-Star rating (if you have 15 seconds) and a positive review (if you have 2 mins!)

The Coaching One
Welcome back to the show! Today’s episode is all about the coaching profession from Rachel’s take. It’s a heart take/hot take show tapping into the greater story of the role of coaching and mentoring and why Rachel set out in 2015 to build a coaching and inspiration studio starting with her own LLC. She invites you to consider who has encouraged you to be who you are in your gifts and cracks open the not intimating at all question of: Why has this been a space that is shrouded in mystery? If you consider yourself a champion of other people living true to themselves, loving being a lifelong learner, or perhaps you’re a classified “cozy person” like she is, you might love the BTS, insights, and musings about the profession Rachel has called home for 9 years. Today’s episode also features an audience poll, the juicy bits of hired coaches doing less customer service than a restaurant, and the value of someone’s attention — on that note, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING TO TODAY’S SHOW!

Jaded and Switched
Welcome back to the show! Rachel reveals a part of her entrepreneurial journey that she’d rather let float on... only she has her own story to tell of taking on the NWM industry as the affiliate branding partner she saw it could be. The truth is, as a creative and entrepreneur with a product-based background, it made a lot of sense to weave it into her offerings. Yes, she IS someone who jumped in and diversified her income by having an affiliation with a NWM company. Yes, she DID have success. Yes, she DID walk away. Hear her strange start from signing up on an Instagram post and then being ghosted to finding a brand she loved, people she loved more, and leaving it all behind for her own well-being in life and business.

Hello from the Other Side
Welcome to the show! Well, this is the inaugural episode so we’re diving into who exactly is this show for? Rachel discusses her background in the wholesale home decor and gift industry, her upbringing and its fork in the road, and her dream to support herself and do work that inspires her. (Is this even a possible dream?) She shares the story of how her gentle approach to sales and business formed and how she learned to be proud of the work she was doing in sales (not always the most popular topic.) If you’ve ever looked ahead to the next person and season and thought, “Is this my fate?” Well, then this one is for you. Last but not in the least, Rach shares how people were able to see her share her business knowledge without actually having her own business yet and that she unintentionally started her business by not making any sales pitches! Hear a little about the women she gets to work with today, what she thinks about the conversation of your life’s work, and figuring out the riddle of doing work that is meaningful while also living a meaningful life.
