Are you ready to think outside of the box and discover different ways to get in front of your target audience with public relations?
I chat with my very special guest Renee Warren who talks about about publicity in your business and some alternative ways that you might not be thinking about to grow your business.
Here’s the thing - the way that we get exposure for our jewelry brands has changed and the old-school way of pitching print magazines is not really a thing anymore.
PR these days is a lot more about your experiences and how you're getting in front of the right audience with the people that you’re either talking to or connecting with who are promoting your brand.
That’s why Renee dives into how you can do this and some of her favorite ways for jewelry business owners to get into the press!
Renee is awesome not only because of her life-changing expertise but also because she is a busy mom who is doing a lot of things in the world and making an impact, so the wisdom she shares is incredibly important for any busy woman who wants to get her business in front of more people.
She’s here to help you build confidence and authority and gain the industry recognition and media exposure that you deserve!

Today is all about one of the core pillars of manifesting what you want in your life and business - being, acting, and emoting the energy and vibe of what you’re trying to attract.
Because honestly, manifestation and positivity aside, sometimes life just goes sideways and you get served (as Jason calls it) a c-r-a-p ball.
Do you know what I’m talking about?
The thing is, we’re human, and sometimes bad things happen to good people who are doing everything right.
As a business owner, you’re going to face challenges every single week in your business, and there will be times when you come up with negative self-talk because of the hardships you’re facing (we all struggle with it).
In the latest episode of the Thrive by Design Podcast, that’s exactly why I talk about how to put a spin on gratitude and be grateful for everything that’s happening to you - even when it’s not so fun at the time.
Because, even though it definitely doesn’t feel like it, your obstacles are taking you to the next level in your business and growth.
So how do you transform that crappy energy into a positive vibe or feeling of gratitude?
I’m excited to share some tangible advice on how to embrace challenges as a path to growth!

Hone in on an area of your life or business you’d like to change right now
Let go of control and open space to let in healing
Let go of stress, burdens, and overwhelm you’re carrying

In today’s episode, we’re switching things up! We dive into an incredibly important topic - how every business owner needs to uplevel their mindset when it comes to money, once they hit their next level of growth.
The thing is, we all have a glass ceiling that we eventually hit. When we hit an upper limit, we sometimes do things to self-sabotage or something explodes in our life and our business. That’s why mindset work is vital. Every one of us will face times when we need to break through our glass ceilings to get to the next level.
This is so close to my heart because this topic has been coming up a lot lately in our community. So many are struggling with their mindset around money, and it’s literally keeping them from growing.
As I thought about this, I started looking at the goldmine of books in my Audible library on money mindset. So today is all about inviting you to binge-read them with me right now! I promise they’ll help you grow in ways you never thought possible and change the whole way you approach making and thinking about money.
I can’t wait for you to join me as I dive into the top 5 amazing money mindset books that have changed my life!

Join us in this episode of Thrive by Design as we dive into the inspiring journey of Jennifer Carey, a fourth-generation jewelry maker and valued member of the Flourish & Thrive community.
Jennifer and her husband used to craft beautiful jewelry pieces from their garage, hustling day and night to meet demand. But the handmade jewelry grind took its toll, leading to unexpected challenges when Jen fell ill, and they had to close shop. The good news? This story has a happy twist!
Jennifer is now part of Riyalto, where she helps jewelry designers tap into the manufacturing powerhouses used by industry giants like Tiffany and David Yurman. With Riyalto, smaller brands and makers benefit from lower pricing and minimums, opening new doors for their creativity.
We'll explore why it's so tough for designers to let go of the manufacturing process and how Riyalto bridges the gap. When you're handcrafting everything, time becomes a limitation, and it's challenging to find help that fits your needs. That's where Riyalto comes in as your jewelry-making ally.
Think of Riyalto as your jewelry manufacturing matchmaker. Jennifer, with her background in the jewelry business, understands the struggles faced by smaller brands that don't require massive quantities. The common misconception that you need a huge order volume is shattered with Riyalto's help.
Their technology-driven platform provides transparency throughout the manufacturing process, so you're never left in the dark. When you partner with Riyalto, you gain a dedicated team, complete with an account manager or jewelry professional. They handle all communication with CAD designers, merchandisers, and buyers, ensuring your project's success.
Don't let time or skill constraints hold you back from reaching new heights in your jewelry business. This episode is a must-listen if you're hungry for growth. You don't have to navigate the journey alone – tune in now and explore how Riyalto can empower your creative vision!

Join us for an inspiring podcast episode with Stephanie Howell, the founder of S Howell Studios. Stephanie's jewelry creations are inspired by the beauty of the natural world, encouraging us to find wonder in life's simplest moments.
Stephanie's journey into jewelry-making began in college, and her love for the craft eventually led her to launch her own jewelry business. Today, she shares her story of how she used the knowledge gained from Flourish & Thrive Academy's Laying the Foundation program and the Thrive by Design podcast to secure the prestigious Halstead Grant, even after her third attempt.
Discover how Stephanie's pursuit of success in her jewelry business led her to seek out valuable resources like the Thrive by Design podcast and Laying the Foundation. She learned the importance of structuring her business to align with her life goals, including achieving a balance between financial freedom and time.
Stephanie's journey to winning the Halstead Grant spanned three attempts, with each round teaching her valuable lessons. She used feedback from Halstead to make improvements and ultimately secured the grant in 2023. The key to her success came from everything she learned in Laying the Foundation, coupled with guidance from mentors and peers.
Stephanie emphasizes that Laying the Foundation played a crucial role in her journey, helping her identify her ideal client, craft a brand story, and develop a strategic approach to her business. Without this foundation, she likens her business to a house without a solid structure.
As a parting word of advice, Stephanie encourages fellow designers to invest in their education, stay organized, and not let financial concerns hold them back from pursuing their dreams. She believes that the knowledge gained from programs like Laying the Foundation is an invaluable investment that pays off quickly.
Stephanie Howell's journey from a jewelry enthusiast to a Halstead Grant winner is a testament to the power of education, determination, and a solid foundation. Her success story serves as an inspiring reminder that with the right knowledge and support, any dream is within reach. Tune in to this episode for more insights and inspiration.
