The Self Made Life Podcast is back for a new season! This time, Ashley Wyatt from Monarch Design Co.(formerly Tayne and Ashley) will be going solo. She'll be chatting all things entrepreneur, sharing branding, productivity and mindset tips and interviewing past clients and small businesses to chat about their journey of entrepreneurship.
We all love showing some parts of our business and lives on social media. But we also have our limits. Creatives are people, not search engines. We aren’t Amazon Prime, we are doing these things with our hands, with lots of love and care. These simple things get forgotten often and we share our thoughts on those topics. We talk about how much sharing is too much and how to answer those DM questions we all get. Weddingbells Tayne and Ashley
We are back! We are talking about where we have been, what is new with each of us, and what we have planned for 2020.
More guests, more tips, more direct content, more behind the scenes!
We are changing it up to be season based, so you will get a few episodes all at once, then one a week for a bit, then we will take a small break.
We are looking forward to chatting with you again!
