Enhancing your Entrepreneurial Spirit with Rebecca Mixson

What does it really take to build a successful business while staying true to yourself, especially as a mama?

In this special episode, I’m sitting down with the incredible Cait Scudder… but I’m on the other side of the mic! 

If you haven’t had the pleasure of crossing paths with Cait before, you’re in for a treat. She is a wildly talented interviewer with a true gift for drawing out little-known insights from her subjects, which is why I couldn’t resist sharing this conversation with you.

In it, you’ll hear me share the raw, behind-the-scenes truth of my journey — from building a business in alignment with my values, to embracing the ebbs and flows of motherhood, and navigating the ever-evolving seasons of life.

Tune in to learn: the power of detoxing what no longer serves you, honouring your season (and trusting that nothing is permanent), why going off the path might be the most powerful move you can make, how motherhood reshaped my business, the link between vitality and postpartum depression, and the “needs matrix” that can revolutionise your family’s emotional wellbeing.

So if you’re building a business, a family, or simply a life that feels good in your bones, then press play now… This one’s for you!

659: The Millionaire Mama Blueprint (& What No One Tells You)

Think about the loss in productivity that happens when a valued employee leaves the company. The loss of institutional knowledge. Or the complete knowledge transfer required when a company changes hands. xBlock is a software tool that uses AI to capture and organize a company’s data—without any extra effort on the employees' part. Co-founder Dena Neek is an AI engineer with an MBA and a background in organizational psychology. She started out developing tech for the hospitality industry and realized her tool was a fit for mergers and acquisitions. 

Janet Johanson didn’t have anything like xBlock when she brought private equity partners into her company, Bev Source—now one of the larger beverage packing and ingredient distributors in North America—nor when she decided to step down as CEO. She offers Neek advice on scaling, marketing, leading, and exiting. 

In Office Hours, College of Saint Benedict and St. John’s University tech specialist Adam Konczewski dispels some fears around AI and offers advice for integrating technology without sacrificing human thinking and interaction.

Many years ago, I introduced a new format that alongside our regular episodes called “Lessons for Hannah.” Hannah is my daughter and one of the main inspirations for the Misfit Entrepreneur. I wanted to have a place where she could go and learn from her daddy and his Misfit friends throughout her life….even after I am gone. If you haven’t listened to the first episode of "Lessons for Hannah," I urge you to as it gives some more background and tells the amazing story of how Hannah came to be in our lives.

Lessons for Hannah are short, very useful, and sometimes comical lessons, that I want to share with you and give to Hannah to help in your lives. Because I want Hannah to have these for her life, I’m going to speak as though I am talking directly to her. These episodes are a lot of fun and if you think there is a lesson that we should include in these episodes, please don’t hesitate to send it over to us at support@misfitentrepreneur.com. We’d love to share it.

Local and state governments, though often overshadowed by federal government, have tremendous impact on our quality of life. This podcast provides a valuable service by educating people on how to improve their own quality of life through civic engagement. Various organizations encourage residents to register and vote, but it does not appear that anyone is showing voters how to make good decisions when they do. It feels akin to hiring someone for a job without reviewing the job description. Local Matters changes that narrative by educating voters with short, clear, and unbiased civics lessons from a career local government professional, public speaker, and management consultant.
