  • Small Actions - Large Impacts
    2024/10/11
    Welcome back to a solo episode of The Welcome to my Tent Podcast. We are diving into the world of small habits and how they can lead to big changes Spoiler alert: It's not about building a rocket ship, but it might involve some Legos. Sarah kicks things off by explaining why mindset shifts can be trickier to notice than physical changes. For example, it's easier to feel sore muscles than to spot mindset shifts with your routines. The episode wraps up with a reminder that personal development doesn't always need to be a four-hour daily routine (because who has time for that?). Sometimes, it's about celebrating the small, unsexy moments – like making an egg sandwich when you'd rather be scrolling through food delivery apps. Sarah emphasizes the importance of consistency and trust-building in developing habits. It is a powerhouse combo to fuel you towards meaningful change. She encourages listeners to recognize the value of those five-minute actions that add up over time. Sarah signs off by sharing her experience of solo parenting for the week, proving that even when life throws some chaos, small habits can keep you on track. We will see you next week!

  • Saddle Up! Social Media is a Rodeo -- with Jera Bean
    2024/10/04
    Today on The Welcome to my Tent podcast, we're diving into the wild world of social media with the one and only Jera Bean. Jera is a social media strategist who's been through her fair share of platform changes, iterations of her brand, and experiences on the internet. Jera takes us on a journey through her evolution from 2015 to present day, ranging from fitness influencer to social media guru. Remember when Instagram was just sepia-toned hot dogs photos at baseball games? Yeah, those were simpler times. We chat about the struggles of authenticity in a world where your followers can simultaneously praise you for being genuine and accuse you of being a “fake” at the same time. We discuss the importance of knowing it’s okay to NOT please everyone, and why staying true to yourself is king. Jera drops some knowledge bombs about content creation, including her "content pillar trifecta" - expertise, business, and secret sauce. She dishes on her unique framework to help you show up on social confidently and as yourself. We dive into the world of video editing with Jera's "Video Editing Rodeo" course. She chats on why she created this, what the course entails, and how it is helping people find confidence in editing content for social. Jera shares her thoughts on embracing imperfection in content creation. It's time to get comfortable with "C-level" content, folks. We wrap up with a discussion on the ever-changing social media landscape. Spoiler alert: The algorithm isn't out to get you personally. So, saddle up and give this episode a listen. Jera is a wealth of knowledge in the social media space, and she wants to share that with you all!

  • If You Feel Uncomfortable, You're Doing it Right -- Solo with Sarah Johnston
    2024/09/27
    In this episode, our host dives into the murky waters of change. As we transition from summer to fall (or in Phoenix, from "hot" to "slightly less hot"), she explores why change can feel overwhelming, scary, and intimidating. Sarah talks about the F-word – no, not that one, the other one: Failure. She explains why labeling setbacks as failures is hindering your progress. Instead, she encourages us to view these moments as feedback, turning our "oops" into "ooh, interesting!" The episode dives into the long-term vs. short-term mindset, reminding us that personal growth isn't a quick fix (sorry). It takes time, patience, and a lot of introspection. Our host shares some nuggets of wisdom from her therapy sessions, including the counterintuitive idea that feeling uncomfortable means you're doing it right. Which seems unfair, but whatever. Finally, she leaves us with a party analogy that'll make you rethink how you deal with uncomfortable feelings. Spoiler alert: it doesn't involve hiding behind the potted plants all night. This episode offers a fresh perspective on embracing the chaos of personal development. Buckle up, drop some f-bombs, and let’s get to changing! Thanks for listening!
