Summary

Let’s flip the roles, Goal Diggers: today, YOU get to guide the conversation! I asked you to call in with your questions about business, life, creativity, burnout, strategy… Really, anything you’re walking through right now. And you showed up with such incredible honesty, depth, and curiosity. In this episode, I’m answering your real questions. We cover everything from pivoting your business when you’re scared to let go of what’s working, navigating grief while building something meaningful, handling burnout, organizing your growing testimonials, and what’s been giving me life outside of work lately. You’ll hear stories, strategies, and some honest behind-the-scenes of what’s felt really hard (and really good!) for me lately. And if you’re listening and thinking, “Wait, I have a question too!”, good news! I want to hear from you. If you want your voice featured on an upcoming episode, just call me at 218-203-9660 and leave a voicemail with your question. Seriously, don’t overthink it… just speak from the heart and you might be part of the next AMA episode!

0:07.1	getting advice about your money less intimidating. I checked out the episode about early retirement
0:12.2	on what should I do with my money and honestly, I couldn't stop nodding along. It really got me
0:17.2	thinking about what financial freedom actually looks like, whether that's
0:20.9	being able to take time off without panicking, switching careers, or just having enough saved
0:25.6	that you're not constantly stressed about money.

0:34.1	Maybe you're wondering if you can ever get ahead or if building any kind of financial

1:15.5	This episode is packed with real talk about burnout, flops, starting over, and the surprising things that are lighting me up lately.
1:23.7	I'm Jenna Goetcher, your host of the Gold Digger podcast.
1:27.4	I escaped the corporate world at the age of 23 with nothing more than a $300 camera
