She Makes Waves

This episode is a love letter to all the mistakes, missteps, and “oopsies” that have shaped my journey. I’m sharing a few behind-the-scenes business disasters—from sending out 1,500 postcards with a typo to painting over a $2K mural days after it went up, to a rogue sign install that was one gust of wind away from causing bodily harm. And let’s not forget the software switch that almost derailed my whole booking system. It’s funny now (kind of), but these moments taught me to appreciate what is working, embrace sunk costs as tuition, and trust myself more deeply. Mistakes don’t mean failure—they’re clarifiers, boundary-pushers, and sometimes, hilarious anecdotes for the pod.
