Get ready to be inspired and empowered in this episode of the Write Your Own Story podcast! Host Betsy Leonidas sits down with her friend Jen Bahl, the incredible woman behind the successful business "Have a Bahl."

Betsy introduces Jen, highlighting their friendship that blossomed through their involvement in the local non-profit organization, Kindervelt. She marvels at Jen's quiet and observant nature, but also recalls a moment when Jen amazed her by running a meeting flawlessly, despite admitting her nerves.

Jen takes us on a journey through her professional life, starting with her internships at Glamour magazine after her parents' divorce. With determination and resilience, she moved to New York City, only to face a setback when her dream job at Glamour fell through. Undeterred, Jen landed a job as an executive assistant at Nautica, eventually rising through the ranks to manage the events and sponsorships department. However, after realizing the toll it took on her family life, she made the courageous decision to start anew in Cincinnati.

In Cincinnati, Jen discovered her passion for planning events and decorating through her involvement with Kinderbelt and various non-profits. She opens up about the emotional journey she went through when her father-in-law was diagnosed with terminal brain tumors. Jen's ability to create beautiful and meaningful moments for her family during this difficult time inspired her to start her own business, "Have a Bahl," where she styles tables for events and creates unforgettable experiences for her clients.

As the conversation turns towards life after 40, Jen shares her personal experiences with anxiety and the holistic methods she uses to find peace. From supplements to acupuncture, yoga to paddleboarding, she emphasizes the importance of self-care and prioritizing mental health.

Betsy and Jen connect over their shared love for entertaining and creating special moments. Jen imparts her wisdom on making every moment count, offering practical tips like bringing flowers or a game to a dinner. The episode concludes with Jen's powerful advice to embrace the highs and lows of life, and to focus on personal fulfillment rather than seeking approval from others.

Tune in to this uplifting and empowering episode as Betsy and Jen show us that by embracing our passions and taking risks, we can truly write our own stories, no matter where life takes us.

ready for an inspiring and relatable conversation on this episode of the Write Your Own Story podcast! Join host Betsy Leonidas as she sits down with the amazing Emily May, a talented interior designer who made the leap from the corporate world to starting her own business.

Emily opens up about her lifelong passion for interior design and how she felt confined in her corporate job. She shares some of the signs that made her realize it was time for a change, like hiding her interest in home design magazines and not feeling fulfilled. With her family growing, she craved more flexibility and wanted to prioritize spending time with her loved ones.

Of course, making the decision to leave her stable corporate job wasn't easy. Emily discusses the fears she had, such as losing momentum in her career and money concerns. However, she discovered that the solutions were simpler than she thought. She realized that even if things didn't work out, she could always find another job. A pivotal moment came when she had a conversation with an Uber driver who had also recently made a big career change. It made Emily feel less alone and more confident in her decision.

When Emily started her own business, she had a clear vision in mind. She wanted to be approachable and affordable for clients with smaller budgets. She offers design consultations and space plans that clients can execute themselves using affordable stores.

Balancing motherhood and a growing business has its challenges, but Emily has found her groove. She realized that having big monetary or growth goals made her unhappy as a mom, so she shifted her priorities to focus on enjoying time with her kids. And you know what? Her business thrives because she truly loves the work she's doing.

Throughout the episode, Emily shares valuable tips and insights that aspiring entrepreneurs can learn from. From writing down fears and solutions to gaining credibility through early publicity, she knows what it takes to succeed. Emily also talks about the importance of meeting clients where they are skill-wise and overcoming imposter syndrome through referrals rather than formal training. Her story is a testament to the power of following your passions and being scrappy to show up for yourself in any way possible.

Tune in to this episode of the Write Your Own Story podcast and get ready to be inspired by Emily May's incredible journey from corporate interior design to building her own successful business. You won't want to miss it!
