We could not be more excited to welcome Kerry Frances back, and for something so special!

You may remember Kerry from Episode 91, where she talked about starring in her first movie—freaking Knives Out! Now Kerry is back to celebrate the release of her first single, titled “For Christmas.”

You can listen wherever you normally listen to music, like right here on Spotify. There’s nothing like a little Christmas music to get you in the holiday spirit.

Thanks for listening, enjoy your holidays, and stay nerdy!

Continuing our small business series, this week we’re chatting with The Geeky Hostess, Tara Theoharis. 

Tara and I chat about the journeys both of our businesses/brands have been through, from our hopeful beginnings to creating full time to taking a step back so we could have a paycheck.

If you run a business or brand and feel like you need a change but don’t want to “fail,” I hope you feel less alone after listening to this episode. And please reach out to @geekyhostess or me if you’d like to chat!

Have a great week, and stay nerdy.

Have you ever hired a VA? Thought of working with one? Even know what that is?

If you’re a tired or overwhelmed business owner, this episode is for you. If you’re very organized and like helping other people stay organized, this episode is also for you!

Andra Hermann of Pixie Pickaxe Creative walks us through the wild world of Virtual Assistants. She tells us about her unexpected journey to becoming a VA and explains the ways a well-suited VA can help businesses of any size. Honestly, recording this episode made me wish I had hired help like this ten years ago!

For our third episode in this SG Small Business series, please welcome your friendly neighborhood publicist Kosi Harris.

Before I started working with Kosi, I really didn’t understand the difference between PR and marketing. Thankfully I had Kosi to explain that to me, and luckily now you do, too!

I’ve been fortunate enough to work with Kosi in different ways over the past few years, and I’m really glad you get to meet her now. If you’re considering expanding your business with publicity, I hope this episode gives you some insight into questions to ask yourself ahead of time and ways to get your business ready for PR.

If you have any questions or would like to inquire about working with her, please follow Kosi at @kosi_harris_pr. 

Have a great week, and stay nerdy!

Welcome to the second episode of our SG Small Business series with special guest Mallory Shoemaker!

Mallory and I have been working together for years, and I’m so excited to talk with her about the behind the scenes of being a creative. We talk all about the whirlwind of doing all kinds of creative projects at all kinds of capacities: hobby, freelance, and full time!

If you’ve ever been overwhelmed by creative possibility, this episode is for you. If you’ve ever felt like every other creative person must have a path straight from the heavens and you’re constantly struggling to find the way, this episode is for you. If you feel alone on your creative journey, we hope you fell less alone after chatting with us.

Also! Mallory has a Kickstarter that you should absolutely check out (and share and back if you can!).

Alright, friends. Have a great week, and stay nerdy.
