Episode 069: Email Isn't Dead - Rogue and Reasoned 25.04.2022

If you hear crickets in your head when you think about your business’ email marketing strategy, listen up! Email is more than just shooting off a few words from your Gmail account. Actually, a branded campaign on the right platform has the potential to convert faster than you can say “social media”. Stop waiting for your customers to find you – go directly to THEM.

Episode 068: A Big 'Ole Dump - Rogue and Reasoned 18.04.2022

Feeling a little stuck? Sometimes we just need to let it all out. Of our brains , that is. A bout of writer’s block can really slow our workflow, and leave us struggling to get anything done.

Episode 067: Put Your Damn Cart Away - Rogue and Reasoned 11.04.2022

Really, it’s not about the shopping cart. But also, it kind of is. There’s a consistent problem in our society today, and I’m calling for us all to be more accountable. You can’t expect the maximum from others, while only doing the minimum yourself. Let’s take a little more interest in the common good, and stop this attitude from bleeding all over our lives.

Episode 065: How Many Gatekeepers Do You Have? - Rogue and Reasoned 28.03.2022

Do you feel slowed or stalled when it comes to accomplishing your goals? It may be because you’re giving away your power to people and things that don’t actually matter. Let’s talk about who and what you truly need to access your dreams, and the two types of gatekeepers you need to remove from your life as soon as possible. Bye bye, brick walls.

Episode 064: Act Your Wage - Rogue and Reasoned 21.03.2022

Contrary to some beliefs, I think it is possible to live outside your means while living within your means. Confused? I get it. But, this conversation extends beyond the value of a dollar. It’s about the position you put yourself in to become the person you want to be, and how you can elevate yourself without screwing up your budget.

Episode 063: I'm Good at a Lot of Things - Rogue and Reasoned 14.03.2022

Yes, you read that right. I’m good at a lot of things. And as egotistical as that may sound, it’s really not.

Let’s shift our speech, loosen our grip on great, and start living a wider life. Join Rogue and Reasoned on Instagram @roguereasonedpodcast and get additi...

Episode 062: The Dark Side of Being Your Own Boss - Rogue and Reasoned 21.02.2022

It’s easy to glorify the life of an entrepreneur. But while being self-employed can offer a lot of perks, it also comes with an immense amount of pressure - amongst other things. Whether you’re thinking about getting your feet wet in business, or you’re already there, let’s get real about the parts of being your own boss no one brags about. The dark parts.

Episode 061: I Feel Differently About College Now - Rogue and Reasoned 14.02.2022

I’m sure we can all agree on one thing - life is fucking hard all by itself. Adding unnecessary and unrelenting debt to it is not a recipe for success. With so many new ways of elevating (and educating) ourselves available today, I question if college is really worth it. At this point, is it really higher education? Or just higher stress?

Episode 060: Ready, or Reactive? - Rogue and Reasoned 07.02.2022

Are you doing things as a response to your environment, or because you really want to? Reactivity isn't automatic productivity, and no one really wants to spend their days spinning their wheels. Especially in career and business! Let’s dig into the pressure to pull the trigger, and come up with a better plan for deciding what we pursue.

Episode 059: Blunt Doesn't Mean Bitch - Rogue and Reasoned 31.01.2022

Is there a difference between being blunt, bold, direct, or *gasp* - a bitch? Call it whatever you want, but I have mad respect for people who can get to the point. And for me, just because I’m giving it to you straight, doesn’t mean I’m giving you attitude. In this episode, I’m digging in to what I think it all boils down to, and reminding you that you’re never going to please everyone. Join Rogu...

Episode 058: The Number One Thing Your Clients Crave - Rogue and Reasoned 17.01.2022

Episode 057: Don't Devalue Me to Feel Better About You - Rogue and Reasoned 10.01.2022

Have you ever had a success that someone attempted to shank? I notice this quite often - people actively trying to cut away at something someone else has, but they lack. In the attempt to level the playing field, these individuals completely minimize what really goes down behind the scenes. Not cool, bro. That ain’t gonna fly over here.

Episode 056: Steer Clear of Burnout This Year - Rogue and Reasoned 03.01.2022

It’s all fun and motivation until you wake up dreading your day! In this episode, we are chatting about the difference between a resolution and goal, the push to do more, and the very real consequence of burnout. Let’s be clear - this is not about being mediocre or lowering your bar. It’s about being selective in your pursuits to keep your sanity intact. Join Rogue and Reasoned on Instagram @rogue...

Episode 055: Don't Be An Idiot After The Holiday - Rogue and Reasoned 27.12.2021

Crime doesn’t cash in on vacation time during the holidays. Rather, it cashes in on your potential to be a victim. While we all want to kick back a bit this week, the responsibility for our own safety remains in full effect. From making returns to toasting at year-end parties, I’m breaking down how to stay off the oblivion train and remain vigilant. Join Rogue and Reasoned on Instagram @roguereaso...

Episode 054: I Have Something to Get Off My Chest - Rogue and Reasoned 13.12.2021

I’m a little fired up on this one, guys. I’ve sat with this, tried to be patient, and let it run its course. But it’s not fizzling – its snowballing – and I’ve lost all freedom to face this on my own terms. The constant chatter cuts deep, and the hate seems to run even deeper. Join me for a conversation about humanness, mental health, and the baseless duty to inform others they are wrong. Join Rog...

Episode 052: How to Manage Self-Doubt - Rogue and Reasoned 15.11.2021

Self-doubt is a sneaky little shit. It can worm its way into any situation and derail our plans – if we let it. Let’s have a conversation about what this lack of confidence is rooted in, how our environment contributes to it, and ways to redirect our mindset. Our brain is powerful, and its time to use it to send the self-doubt fairy packing. Join Rogue and Reasoned on Instagram @roguereasonedpodca...

Episode 051: You Have to Train to Be An Entrepreneur - Rogue and Reasoned 08.11.2021

Have a business degree? That’s cute. Don’t have one? So what? Successful entrepreneurship isn’t guaranteed by a printed piece of paper, and is definitely not something you can buy pre-packaged on your local Target shelf. It takes practice, drive, and patience.

Episode 050: Gifts Are Stupid - Rogue and Reasoned 01.11.2021

Good intentions aside, all this gift-giving business has gotten WAY out of control. Is it really in pursuit of happiness? Or is it an archaic societal obligation that breeds stress and struggle - conveniently packaged underneath shiny paper and a bow? Let’s take a meaningful look at how we spend, what habits we’re passing on, and what the end game is with all these gifts. Join Rogue and Reasoned o...

Episode 049: Things We Say Too Often - Rogue and Reasoned 18.10.2021

Too much of anything can be bad, right? It’s not exclusive to wine, truffle fries, and spins on the slots. Now, I might hold the unpopular opinion, but I think we’ve watered down and grayed out some sentiments to the point where they sometimes hold zero meaning. And sadly, several of these are tied to some of the most important human emotions. Perhaps pulling back a bit might help them return to t...

Episode 048: We're Just Renting Space - Rogue and Reasoned 11.10.2021

Leave it to a social media shutdown to have us all questioning what we control. Well, if that wasn’t you, it might be a good time to make a sharp realization. Because truthfully, we’re only renting space. And not only on the internet - there are conditions to the lease we have with everything around us. It is to be earned, maintained, and never guaranteed.

Episode 047: Before You Get Married - Rogue and Reasoned 04.10.2021

Everyone has a past. Friends aren’t everything. And, money doesn’t matter. Or, is that all wrong? If you’re thinking marriage (or any long term commitment), I’m dropping a few thought nuggets for you to consider ahead of these big steps. These aren’t your everyday recommendations, but they are sure as shit REAL. Why? I’ve been where you are. Join Rogue and Reasoned on Instagram @roguereasonedpodca...

Episode 046: What's Your Number? - Rogue and Reasoned 27.09.2021

Do you know YOUR number? Have you kept track over the years? Some of us might feel ours is too high, while others have kept theirs low. No, not THAT one. I’m talking about another number - one that we should embrace and share more confidently. For people like us, it’s not just about finding “the one”. It’s about everything we are meant for.

Episode 045: Have You Always Been Who You Are? - Rogue and Reasoned 13.09.2021

We get so lost in our attempts to change that we end up overlooking the parts that are meant to remain the same. Deep, huh? This was my thought response to finding a childhood Christmas list, among other things, in a some old belongings. Tune in for a discussion about growth, and who we don’t need to try to be. Because, we already are. Join Rogue and Reasoned on Instagram @roguereasonedpodcast and...
