How to bring good luck to business? Sorry to disappoint, but there’s no such thing as luck in business. You do not really want to rely on luck, do you?
In this episode of the Becoming PowHERHouse podcast, I challenge the luck in business paradigm - simply because I believe that it’s not luck, but rather something else.
How to succeed in business?
I used to say I "accidentally” fell into my career. But how I became a financial advisor is by actually doing a lot of hard work. It took grit and dedication. Because running a business requires getting uncomfortable to succeed, I had to learn to push through.
So, let's ditch the luck mindset and embrace our inner powherhouses. Keep pushing forward, trust your intuition, and surround yourself with support. You've got this!

Nicholle covers:
Mastering your time doesn't mean cramming every second with work. It's about optimizing your day, understanding your priorities, and ensuring you have moments to relax and reflect.
Core values are what drive us, and what motivate us. They help us navigate through difficult times and important decisions. Core values represent what's most important to us. They're principles that we adhere to in life: our personal code of conduct. In your business, shared values build accountability and trust, giving everyone a framework to understand and anticipate each other’s behavior.

The Importance of Core Values
How to Lead with Tomorrow in Mind
Individual Initiative: How to empower your team to implement core values into their lives
Thoughtful CommunicationAccountability through AssessmentCelebration of Achievements
….And more!
Understanding core values is all part of getting to know who you are. In a nutshell, being consciously aware of our innate values helps us live more authentically. When we don’t act true to our values or allow ourselves to be guided by them, we suffer to some degree or another because we’re going against the grain of ourselves. So what are your core values?
You are capable of accomplishing your goals! What are some of the things that can help you become successful and create the mindset that it takes to grow and scale a business? How can you set boundaries and make sure that everything is done with intention and passion? You won’t want to miss this episode of Becoming PowHERHouse!

Do you feel you have to leave the best parts of yourself at the door in order to make others happy? This week’s guest on Becoming PowHERhouse, Jill Osur, felt this way when she made the decision to start her own business. Jill gave herself the permission to use her voice and asked herself as a leader in the wine industry, what was she doing to be part of the solutions she wanted to see in the world. Born was her company, Teneral Cellars, a women-owned and operated producer of sustainable, phenomenal wines, harnessing the power of business for good.
In this conversation, Nicholle & Jill discuss:
A former UC Berkeley softball player, Jill Osur still draws on her athletic background to hone her leadership style and overcome obstacles. Deeply moved to elevate women and inspire meaningful change, her values have guided her career—first as a savvy political fundraiser, then in marketing with Special Olympics Northern California & Nevada, and now, as an entrepreneur.
Jill has helped launch numerous consumer product companies and ventures focused on “doing well by doing good.” Previously the co-founder and director of California-based winery group GL Enterprises, Jill founded a digital winery, Teneral Cellars, in 2020. Teneral Cellars is driven by Jill’s belief that wine can be a conduit for change; a force for gender equity and social justice within the wine industry and our culture at large.
Jill is a captivating public speaker who helps female executives and entrepreneurs learn how to strengthen their leadership by tapping into the “head, heart, and gut.” As said by one attendee, Jill “puts a firecracker in the room” with her energizing, moving presence. A champion of female power, Jill coaches audiences and clients to embrace their brilliance, leverage full capacity thinking, and show up in alignment with their authentic selves.
Jill is a member of Women Presidents’ Organization, C-Sweet, was a founding board member of the John F. Kennedy University Institute for Entrepreneurial Leadership, and is a current advisory board member for Enterprising Women, Women Business Collaborative, and board
member of Hilinski’s Hope Foundation, which provides integrative mental wellness programs for student athletes.

Contracts! Trademarks! Intellectual property, oh my! Nicholle talks with trademark and business lawyer Layne Lyons on this week’s episode of Becoming PowHERhouse. They dive into what these terms mean, in an easy-to-understand way, and why you need them to protect your business. Layne herself created an online business with a partner, without a written agreement, and ended up getting burned, losing out on the content she helped create AND potential income. From this experience she jumped into how she can better protect herself and her biz, which turned into helping other women business owners do the same!
In this conversation, Nicholle & Layne discuss:
Layne Lyons, JD is a Trademark and Business Lawyer for women-owned solo and small businesses. She uses her Duke Law School education and 28 years of experience and expertise as a lawyer to button up women’s businesses. She uses trademarks to protect her clients’ brands, and written contracts to protect their money, relationships, content, and sanity so they can build and scale with confidence.
Beyond her many qualifications and years of experience, Layne has a very special superpower: she makes legal matters simple, clear, and easy to understand. She’s not “that kind of lawyer.” Layne’s clients rave about how safe, secure, and confident they feel after working with her to handle their legal matters. Layne Lyons is your go-to lawyer for all things legal, helping you protect and grow your business with the peace of mind that comes from knowing everything is set up properly and legally secure.

Do you struggle with networking? Feel guilty about delegating tasks or often just do things yourself? On this week’s episode, Nicholle is joined by party planner, entrepreneur, broadcast media professional, & experienced speaker, Renee Patrone Rhinehart! Renee dives into her love for events and how she has transformed the event planning & hosting industry with the lessons she’s learned along the way.
In this conversation, Nicholle & Renee discuss:
Renee Patrone Rhinehart does more than just host a party to remember. The founder of two companies, Events by Renee and Party Host Helpers, Renee is now a self-made business leader.
Over the past decade, she has grown Events by Renee into Philadelphia’s premiere wedding planning business. From the engagement ring to the ‘I do’s,’ Renee has walked dozens of couples down the aisle and into their future with a fabulous celebration.
Renee launched her second business, Party Host Helpers, in 2014 in the Philadelphia area. She realized so many of her hosts were too busy with prepping, serving and cleaning, they usually missed their whole party. Renee developed the idea of using servers and bartenders to assist at bridal showers, holiday dinners, graduation parties and more. The helpers do it all – greet guests, mix drinks and unload dishwashers.
But once Party Host Helpers began, the company pique interest outside of Philadelphia. Now, Party Host Helpers is in more than 30 cities from New York City, to West Palm Beach to Los Angeles. And continues to grow.
Renee was named “40 Under 40” by the Philadelphia Business Journal in 2017. Her companies have been named “Best of Philly 2015 & 2018,” “Best of Bergen County, NJ,” and “Best of South Jersey 2018.”
Renee is a new Mom to Baby Reese, a wife and a beach lover!
