Published about 2 months ago • 1 min read

Greetings Groovy Human!

Episode 283 of the Gratitude Geek Podcast is live and it’s a deep-fried think piece!

I chat with franchise strategist Brittney Lincoln about how to franchise your business as a woman entrepreneur. If you've ever dreamed of scaling your business—or just want to build systems that give you more freedom—this one’s packed with practical insight and inspiration.

You don't want to miss when Brittney and I ask ChatGPT the big, beefy question: Would McDonald’s survive if Ray Kroc launched it today? The answer might surprise you!

Meanwhile, I wrapped up the July Ultimate Blog Challenge with all 31 posts published (yes, really).

This week I’m sharing the 6 solopreneur success strategies I picked up after blogging every day—from mindset and marketing to self-care and sustainability. It’s the good stuff.

Oh, and if you’ve ever had a day when your to-do list wins and your self-doubt throws a party, don’t miss this week’s mindset article:
14 no-nonsense mindset tips from past podcast guests who’ve been through the trenches and came out groovier on the other side.

Stay groovy!
