Energy drinks often get a bad rap, but Benny co-founders Paige and Julie are flipping the script when it comes to how we view energy drinks. In today’s episode, Priscilla and Lauren sit down with the Benny co-founders and they share the story behind creating an energy drink that's actually good for you - Yes you read that right.
What set them apart? Identifying their “why” in order to carve out a new space in the saturated beverage market. With that ambition and self-belief, Paige and Julie dove headfirst into building Benny, even when those around them didn't quite understand what they were doing. Although they were initially hesitant to call Benny an "energy drink," worried about the negative connotations, they soon realized leaning into that category was key to standing out.
As Paige so wisely reminded us “The Way you spend your days is the way you spend your life” So keep that in mind and go do that thing you’ve been thinking of because it might just be your next big move.

Are you tired of the pressure to be perfect? Well welcome to the party because in today’s episode, Priscilla and Lauren are discussing why striving for perfection is the exact thing holding you back, and how you can escape that debilitating mentality to achieve everything you’ve always wanted and more.
The truth is, as business owners, very rarely do things work out exactly how we envision. But, rather than chasing an impossible plan that you want to be executed 'perfectly' and getting frustrated when it doesn't, rewiring your perfectionist tendencies for when things do go south, will not only allow you to get your subconscious on board with your goals but will also give you the freedom to grow and evolve in all areas of their lives. Once you embrace this mindset, even when things don't go perfectly to plan, your next big move is closer than you think.

Do you ever feel like you're just pretending, that you don't actually have what it takes to be that successful person you’ve always envisioned yourself to be? If so, you're definitely not alone. Imposter syndrome is something we ALL struggle with. Yes, even that celebrity that you think is the most confident person in the world, or the person at your company who has been in the supervising role for several years - trust us when we say, we’ve all been there.
In today’s episode, Priscilla and Lauren open up about how imposter syndrome has crept into the mindsets of not only them but successful people worldwide, and share their strategies on how to push past that nagging voice of self-doubt that makes you question whether you really have what it takes.
The truth is, that even the most successful people struggle to believe they deserve success. So, what's keeping you from taking that next step? As Lauren said, you wouldn’t get the opportunity if you weren't ready for it, and the moment you are able to change your mentality from being your own worst critic to being your own best coach, your next big move is right around the corner.

If you could pinpoint the one thing that’s holding your business back what do you think it would be? Maybe it’s generating sales, it could even be marketing, but have you ever thought that it may be delegation? You might find yourself holding onto every task and responsibility, fearful that your business will fall apart without your constant involvement. If that’s the case, you’ll want to stay tuned because, in today’s episode, Priscilla and Lauren share just how powerful the art of delegation can be in taking your business to the next level.
Delegation can be very tricky, and often our fears of delegation come from our unpacked baggage from childhood, which is holding us back from releasing control.
Having been there themselves, Priscilla and Lauren share strategies to truly examine these subconscious blocks, and after listening you’ll realize that delegating isn't a weakness, but a strength that is the catalyst that fuels faster growth for everything you're wanting and more.
As Lauren said, everything is the meaning we give to it. There is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ decision. Just a decision we make that will either allow you to progress, and as soon as this belief is a constant in your business you will be on the way to your next big move.

Remember when you were a kid and you baked a cake for the first time or built your first paper airplane, or maybe even drew the most amazing chalk portrait on the sidewalk and you thought to yourself - ‘I could do this forever’? Well, that’s exactly what our guest today, Sacha Jarmon, did when it came to creating jewelry. In today’s episode, Priscilla and Lauren sit down with the co-founder of Love Saro and learn about the incredible journey of how Sacha’s love for designing jewelry as a child led her to create the custom permanent jewelry business, that is changing the game in the industry.
When starting your own company you may feel like you have to have the perfect plan or like you are building the airplane while it’s flying, but after listening to Sacha’s story of how she continued to move through all the hurdles of not paying herself for two years, and launching right at the start of COVID, you will realize how constantly reevaluating can make all your dreams a reality.
By focusing on guest experience and intentionality with every single one of her clients, her story also demonstrates the power of relationships, and how living authentically in all you do will be the catalyst for your next big move.

Get ready to turn your passion project into a career! This episode is going to motivate you to take action and make your next big move.
After she was told to try business out “just for fun,” Alicia Zeng found herself helping big companies, like Mckinsey, with their strategy right out of college. To some, this may sound like the dream and, for a little while, it was for Alicia. But after being fed up with only seeing men in positions of power, making decisions on products catered to women, and all the emotional burnout that came with it, Alicia decided she wanted to be part of the companies that were doing things differently. What was the answer to making that happen? Lashes!
Throughout her incredible career trajectory and story, we are reminded that sometimes things aren’t what we envision and no matter what it is - you can always figure it out. Trust us when we say that after learning more about how Alicia turned something that truly was a side project, into a company that now has 13 team members, you will be more than motivated to take the next steps toward your next big move.

Yeah, you read that right. Business CAN and SHOULD be fun, and in today’s episode, Priscilla and Lauren are teaching you how exactly to do that. Gone are the days of showing up in a button-down shirt with a blazer, which don’t get us wrong we love a good blazer moment, and it’s all about showing up in whatever is going to allow you to feel like the most authentic version of yourself.
It’s all about balance. If you get to show up every day doing something you love AND make money on top of it - that’s a win in our book. The beauty of today is you can create a business out of just about anything. Maybe it’s being an Elvis Impersonator like Priscilla’s dad did, or contrary to Lauren you may love kids retail and want to make a career out of it. Whatever it is - it is beyond possible to turn that passion into a business. When you love what you do, and the people around you love what they do too, you are already on the path towards your next big move.

Perfect is out, and real is in when it comes to building your brand. Coachella is one of the biggest events where brands get to truly pull in consumers, and in this episode, our Agency Director, Gabbie, is giving us all the details that she gathered from her weekend attending the festival.
What’s the biggest thing she noticed? The importance of authenticity and community when it comes to not only building a brand but also maintaining it. With the digital marketing landscape evolving exponentially over the past few years, and seeing how Gen-Z responds to marketing efforts, brands now more than ever need to be innovative, authentic, and people-centric. Shifting your business from product-centric to people-centric may sound like a difficult switch, but during Priscilla and Lauren’s conversation with Gabbie, we learn why this is a lot more achievable than you may think.
No matter where you’re at in your business journey, how many followers you have, or if you’re not sure where to start - you have to be your biggest cheerleader when it comes to achieving your wildest dreams. As Gabbie reminded us, The World is Your Oyster, and with just one step toward your goals, you’re that much closer to your next big move.
