Working from home feels more popular than ever. And as we do, we’re all trying to find a rhythm that’s good for our businesses and our souls, right?!

I’ve been super curious about the 4-day work week philosophy for YEARS. Between reading the book Shorter: Work Better, Smarter, and Less—Here’s How” by Alex Soojung-Kim Pang and watching my best friend Amy Porterfield test it (and love it!) with her own team, I knew I just had to try it.

So we, as a team, are testing out a 4-day work week for 90 days! In this episode I’m sharing a little research behind 4-day work weeks, how I finally made the decision to implement quickly, and how it’s going.

I will never forget the day I uttered the three words that changed my life… “I need help.” 

I had been doing it ALL for years, wearing all the hats and covering all the roles that a booming business required, but then life knocked me on my knees and I realized that I had built a business that only worked when I worked. Getting help and hiring my first virtual assistant changed … EVERYTHING. 

Let me tell you, friend: if you’re struggling to accomplish everything in your business yourself, learning how to ask for help will change your life. And today, my guest Stacy Tuschl is here to help you do just that!

Delegating is a skill set, and the good news is that it can be learned – let Stacy be your guide. In our conversation, we discuss why it’s important to delegate in your business, what types of tasks you should and should NOT be focusing on, the limiting beliefs you may be experiencing when it comes to hiring your first assistant … and more.

Recently, I was on a Mastermind Call with a group of moms, all entrepreneurs, who were exploring different business offers. During the discussion, one of the women raised the question of whether to pursue a high-ticket, high-touch approach or a low-ticket, low-touch approach to serving clients. 

Like many entrepreneurs, this is a decision I've grappled with in various businesses throughout my career, so I’m eager for us to talk about it today. It certainly sparked a great conversation amongst the women in my mastermind group so let’s bring it to today’s show!

We’re going to chat about the pros and cons of each type of offer, examples for various industries to get your wheels turning, and how to determine the best offer for your business based on the season you’re currently in.

BREAKING NEWS! If you have been on Instagram in the past week, you know that there’s a new app in town: Threads. Whether you’re loving it or resisting it, let’s talk about it.

I’m not usually the earliest adopter – I still haven’t really jumped on the TikTok train after watching apps like Clubhouse and Vine, but this one felt different for a few reasons. 

I signed up for both my personal and the goal digger podcast accounts as soon as the ‘doors opened’ in the early morning of July 5th and I’ve been having the BEST time sharing my random daily thoughts I haven’t had a place to share anywhere else.

It’s been WAYYYYY too long since I’ve gotten to hug my teammates in person, but all of that changed just a few weeks ago when I flew myself and 12 of my employees and contractors out to Scottsdale, Arizona for some much-needed rest and relaxation.

If you didn’t know, our small-but-mighty team is entirely remote, and all of the powerhouse women on team JK own their role from all over the country (and even Canada!).

After a few (very long) years of not being able to do a team retreat thanks to the entire world shutting down, a few babies being born, and other life transitions, we were finally able to go on a team retreat and spend some much-needed time together as a team!  

When I got back, I asked YOU for your questions about cultivating an amazing team culture... And boy, did you deliver!

I’m so excited to dive into YOUR questions in this special Q+A episode.

I threw a party for my book! Ok, not really… but Drew, the girls, and I *did* eat some cake. We had to celebrate somehow! Because my first book, New York Times bestseller How Are You, Really? turned one this week, and let me tell you: I am feeling alllll the feels. From hitting the top of the charts to selling over 100,000 copies, to over 1,000 reviews on Amazon – it’s been a wild ride and one I have LOVED. 

It’s hard to explain just how powerful it is to have your story (in all its vulnerable glory) in hardcover for anyone in the world to read. And although it gives me a liiiiittle anxiety if I think about it too long, it also feels important… because our stories are our legacy. 

In fact, I dive into this topic inside of my books pages. Of course, you can read the entire thing by getting your copy at howareyoureallybook.com… but for now, let’s celebrate the one year anniversary of How Are You, Really? by listening to Chapter 14: What Brooke Shields Doesn't know: Why Your Story Matters A Lot.

I always think about my life like a series of seasons, and each one brings a different main value to the forefront. In some seasons, money becomes the king, and we're willing to trade our time for it. You see this a lot when you're just starting up a business or when you're going through big changes like pivoting or launching something new. It's the harsh reality of the game.

But here's the thing: once you've achieved some level of success or financial freedom, you start to realize that time is the real treasure. You'd gladly give up some of that hard-earned money to get back those precious moments. I always think about it like this—time is a non-renewable resource. Once it's gone, you can't get it back. Money, on the other hand, you can always find a way to earn more.

As we go through the different seasons of life, let's keep in mind this profound truth about time and money. The goal is for us to find that sweet spot between chasing financial stability and preserving our most valuable asset—time. 

This episode is to help you make conscious choices that align with that value–with 5 ways to trade money to get back time to do the things that matter most. Click play NOW to dive in!

In this episode, I'm sharing some practical strategies for building an audience from scratch, even if you don't have anything to sell yet. If you’re someone who has a dream or a vision or you want to start your side hustle or you know that sommmeeday you want to leap into entrepreneurship, this is where you should start.

What if you were just one post away from skyrocketing your sales and achieving your wildest dreams? I know, you’re like, “a girl can dream!”… but that is exactly what happened to my guest today. After she spent years taking the padding out of her sports bras and placing it in her tanks and bodysuits, she finally decided to design her first brami top.

Before she knew it, her first “brami” (bra + cami) design went viral on TikTok in 2020 and showed her what’s possible for her small business, Klassy Network.

That’s right: today I am chatting with Natalie Rogers Soto, an innovative fashion designer who has gained a reputation for her stylish brami tops. However, she’s not just a designer - she's also a savvy entrepreneur.

Today, she’s going to share with us how to use social media to sell inventory, what it’s like working with family, how she knew when it was time to level up, and so much more.

If you listen to the Goal Digger Podcast, there's a really good chance that you are a big dreamer. You are someone who is in pursuit of a very full, rich, and vibrant life, just like me.

But something that’s been on my mind recently has been the delicate balance between wanting more and being content with what I have. Have you ever wondered the same?

I've always been a high-achieving, ambitious person who wanted to go the extra mile and see what was possible for myself. And I’m *still* that person… Although recently, especially after having children, I’ve felt an immense peace in my life that I never, ever want to lose.

Now that I’ve experienced both, if I had to choose between ambition and contentment, I would choose contentment every single day of the week.

So, Goal Digger, this episode is a bit different than normal. I’m giving you a front row seat to my daily debate: should I scale bigger or shut it down? I may not have all the answers, but I do feel like I am at a beautiful place a decade into my entrepreneurial journey where I am genuinely finding joy every day in the work that I'm doing, but also in the life that I'm living. To me, that is the greatest gift that I could have ever been given, and I wish nothing but the same for you.

I was about to go Live for my third webinar of the week when I said to a member of my team, “I can’t believe how relaxed I feel. This launch just FEELS different.” 

*Different* was an understatement, of course… Because over the next few days, we completely blew our goals out of the water and served over 24,000 humans in the process. *mind blown!*

In the last few years, we haven't done a lot of really big live launches. It's been a while since we've done a REALLY big launch. The truth is, there are a lot of reasons why we haven't gone all out: pregnancy, postpartum, not having an office, and more.

Think it’s time for a life inventory? 

In this episode, I’m cracking open my book and deep-diving into an entire chapter with you! The first chapter of my first book, bestseller “How Are You, Really?”, introduces what I learned from “asking the quieter question” and the practice of doing your OWN life inventory! Start listening and let’s do the work together!

A few years ago, I decided to take the practice of ‘checking in on myself’ a heck of a lot more seriously. So much that it turned into, well, an entire book. A life inventory isn’t as intensive as it sounds either. Trust me — this process? It’s like sweet, sweet relief.

HOW ARE YOU REALLY BOOK

DAILY REFLECTION JOURNAL

Do you ever feel left behind or think you’re so far from where you want to be? This feeling is normal, but how does it manifest in your self-talk? Is it belittling or comforting? For most of us, it’s that voice in our head that keeps saying we’re not enough — we’re never enough. 

Goal Digger, it’s time to change this. 

Negative self-talk ISN’T about being positive all the time. It IS, however, about finally showing yourself some well-deserved love and compassion… and the queen of saying it out loud is saying it loud and proud on Goal Digger today.

Vasavi Kumar has the sort of confidence you can FEEL and now she’s going to share how you can harness the power of confidence in your life. In this episode, she shares her insights on how self-talk, confidence, and self-trust are all interconnected to each other. She emphasizes that we’re often our harshest critics and our negative self-talk is something we would never say to others. So why is it that we’re so harsh to ourselves? At its core, it’s a lack of love of compassion for ourselves. 

If you’re struggling with self-sabotage and negative self-talk, tune in to the episode NOW!

I've built a business that gives me a lot of opportunities for my days to ebb and flow, so I want you to know that as I am sharing a day in my current life. As always, take what serves you and leave the rest behind as you click play on this behind-the-scenes episode of the Goal Digger Podcast!

I have to be honest, this conversation is a true “pinch me” moment. I’m so honored to host a conversation with a true Hollywood icon who has captivated audiences for decades with his performances on the big screen. From his breakout role in "Dazed and Confused" to his Oscar-winning turn in "Dallas Buyers Club," he has proven time and again to be one of the most versatile and compelling actors of his generation.

But Matthew McConaughey is much more than just a talented performer. He's also a writer, a philosopher, and a seeker of truth and meaning. His recent book, Greenlights, has become a sensation, topping the bestseller lists and inspiring readers around the world with its honest, humorous, and insightful reflections on life, love, and the pursuit of happiness.

Through his writing and his acting, he has become a cultural icon, a symbol of resilience, authenticity, and creativity in a world that can often feel overwhelming and uncertain. There’s so much we can all learn from the legendary Matthew McConaughey in his interview on the Goal Digger Podcast!

Taking risks for our dreams is a concept that we talk about on the Goal Digger Podcast all the time, but it is something that can be difficult to put into practice. Kylie Low has been the producer behind the Goal Digger Podcast for over four years now, but in February 2023 Kylie came to me with an announcement I always expected to hear from her – She was ready to step down from producing this podcast to pursue her dreams and work on her own podcast full time.

In this final installment of the Jenna & Kylie series on the Goal Digger Podcast, Kylie shares the behind the scenes of her decision to leave her full-time job working for me to dive into her own projects. We reflect on the almost 5 years working together and what I’ve learned as the boss of someone who I always felt was more entrepreneurial than employee from day one. We get a little teary-eyed, but this conversation is a raw look at what happens when you realize it’s time to say goodbye.

You know by now that I am not a person in pursuit of “balance” – I want blend. I want my life as a mother and as an entrepreneur and as Jenna, the human, to blend together so that I can show up as my full self wherever I am, never having to segment or compartmentalize who I am or what I love. Today’s guest has a similar philosophy, and it’s the concept of work-life harmony. 

Tina Wells’s story is so interesting and so inspiring. She turned a business that she launched when she was just a teenager into an award-winning marketing agency, led boardroom meetings as the youngest (and sometimes only) Black woman in the room, and pursued her childhood dream of traveling around the world. Now, Tina is a business strategist, advisor, author, and founder. Through it all, she’s crafted a method for maintaining work-life harmony, that is, she doesn’t forgo joy and peace for productivity, and that’s something I can get behind. 

In her new book, The Elevation Approach, she shares her four-phase plan for work-life harmony, a flexible and foolproof technique that helps you meet your goals without sacrificing joy for productivity and progress.

One of my goals is to really foster friendships in different ways this year. It's one of those things that the more that I have conversations about it, the more that I feel like there's so much commonality among us, and especially people who are entrepreneurial or who find themselves working from home, I think there are a lot of common threads of ways that we might be feeling or struggles we might be having, or situations we might find ourselves in that we don't often get to talk to because we don't have the friends to talk about this topic with.

So this episode is all about making friends as an adult – the who, the where, and the how (even the dating apps that could actually help you connect with new pals!)

Be honest with yourself for a moment. Is the work you’ll dedicate your time and energy to today just a j-o-b, or is it your life’s work?

I was recently with a ton of other leaders in our industry and the topic of building a team came up a lot and I was shocked at how complicated some of the processes were around hiring. I’m not knocking them, but they just aren’t for me. From getting agents to help find candidates to having 5 part interviews or massive requirements, it just isn’t how I do things.

People ask all of the time if we’re hiring and 99% of the time the answer is no, but we recently WERE hiring and we were able to hire two incredible new team members in under a week using our method of hiring – with a twist.

What could you do in 16 hours a week? Well, my guest today is going to share how she built and sustained a business with just that – first out of necessity but then out of desire. Shay Cochrane is a major proponent of NOT neglecting your life to be profitable. You can be a whole person while still building a successful business. 

Shay’s wildly popular stock images subscription business, Social Squares, is evidence of that. Shay works just 16 hours a week so she can get back to being a human and mom and wife. Shay wants to encourage other entrepreneurs to tune out those distracting outside voices and dial into what you really want. You can do things differently, and this conversation will help you see what’s possible.

Personal development has become a buzzword in the modern era, with individuals all over the world focusing on and ready to enhance themselves. The market for self-improvement products and services is booming, and it’s easy to become obsessed with the latest strategies, tactics, and techniques for personal growth. 

But there’s one thing that I think keeps getting forgotten in this space where we’re challenged to learn and grow and do… it’s the PERSONAL part of developing. In this episode, we’ll discuss why it’s vital to remember that personal development is about the "personal" aspect as much as it is about the "development." In other words, it’s important to focus on the individualism of the process, rather than simply following generic blueprints.

“Screw morning routines!” It’s kind of hilarious because while I’ve said that, deep down inside I’ve yearned to have one. I’ve believed that maybe a morning routine could unlock that next level of success or that I’m broken because I just can’t stick to a routine. 

Are we screwed if we don’t have a morning routine or if we’re in a season of life where morning routines just aren’t realistic? For a while I thought that was the case until I started incorporating this new idea, and it has been LIFE CHANGING. This episode is all about what to do if a morning routine just isn’t your thing or isn’t plausible in this season of life.
