Why Start A Podcast

If you’ve been an entrepreneur for very long, you know the power of getting your name out and the golden rule of building know, like, trust with your audience.

Can we let you in on a little secret though?

You can build know, like, and trust on social media.

You can build know, like, and trust with blogging.

But … did you know you can build know, like and trust AND catapult it at warp speed via content like a podcast?

Today’s conversation is quite meta. We’re talking about how to grow your audience faster with a podcast, on a podcast.

A podcast is an amazing way to start your business or even to figure out what your business should be. It’s also a list building tool that helps you grow your reach and it helps give you brand recognition.

But the actual beauty of doing a podcast is, you are figuring things out as you go along. In this episode, we breakdown:

Why we created our podcasts
How empowering it is
Why you should start one
And how you already have what it takes

Now you ask, why would I start a podcast?

A better question is, why not?!

If you have a purpose that you want to bring to light, or something that you love to teach and share, one of the BEST ways to do this is via a podcast.

Bourbon Burn & Entrepreneurship

Bourbon Burn and Entrepreneurship

What does a cycling trip through bourbon country have to do with entrepreneurship?

It turns out, everything!

In this week’s episode of the Serendipitous Rebel Podcast, Krystal interviews Wendy on her big takeaways from her most recent adventure in bourbon country.

We created this podcast for the adventure loving, purpose driven, action minded, purpose driven entrepreneurs. And what is more adventure loving and purpose driven than a cycling from distillery to distillery and having a lot of fun on the way. Wendy spent a long weekend enjoying the Bourbon Country Burn in Lexington, Kentucky. It was 3 days of cycling between distilleries along with 1,100 bikers. In the end she rode 100 miles and toured 7 distilleries while clamping along the way.

Why the Bourbon Burn?

This had always been a bucket list adventure for Wendy. She always wanted to partake in a Backroads Cycling Trip. Her husband wasn’t a huge fan of the idea of group travel, but did find this as something fun that they could do together that would marry her desire for a cycling trip and his love of bourbon.

What was her big epiphany along the way?

Doing any kind of an endurance challenge is a precursor for running an online business.

Both require you to step out of your comfort zone. It’s a huge risk that can be very freeing, but there are a lot of amazing experiences along the way.

You’ve gotta do you!

In this life people are always judging you. There are people out there that will make snide comments about they way you do things. There are people who feel very strongly about processes. You will have to resist the urge to justify everything you do.

We of them spend so much time looking at what other people do or say that we lose focus on what we need to do. That’s how we end up in situations that we are resentful of or unhappy.

Set up your business so that you can take the opportunities to have adventures when you can!

There are a ton of people who look at us and wish they could do what we do. Many people choose to work from home so that they can have the laptop lifestyle and travel more. Yet, many don’t set up their business so that it will lend itself to that kind of a lifestyle. It is possible to intentionally set up

Podcast, Purposeful Pivoting

Serendipitous Rebel Pivot Part 2

This week is a continuation of last weeks episode. If you haven’t listened yet, we encourage you to go back and check out Part 1.

What does it take to show up in your business every day?

In our opinion: confidence.

Often it takes just a small initial push to get started. We want the flexible laptop lifestyle, and everyone likes to make this look easy.

The fact is that the process is simple, but it is definitely not easy. You need a certain amount of confidence to get moving. And as you keep going on your entrepreneurial journey, you will build confidence along the way.

But if you are solid in your purpose and you know why you are doing this and why you are showing up in your business, then you’ll be able to show up with even more confidence.

As we continue with the discussion on purposeful pivoting we touch on “what is our personal purpose?” This is not the same thing as your entrepreneurial purpose. It is a hard truth as to why you are here in this space, the online space.

Is it to make a change?

Is it for money?

Is it for your family?

We, as lifestyle entrepreneurs, want to have a certain standard of living and want to be able to do certain things and have certain goals. They are driven by wanting to feel like we are accomplishing things, that we are making contributions to our family and to our world.

In this episode we are talking about how we are leveraging our own strengths and gifts, because we don’t want to work 60 hour weeks, and we don’t necessarily want to run an empire of seven figures.

So we thought that we would ask, why are you doing this? What is making you show up everyday?
