One year of podcasting + 50 episodes later, and we’re celebrating by taking a summer break! 🎉☀️

Hear the news first in EP 50. Link in bio!

We’ll see you back here this fall 🍂

365 days ago, P&P setoff on a crazy adventure.

We started a podcast & I [Austin] recorded myself talking into a weird bulging mic for ~30 minutes every single week. 😵

I covered topics I’d been waiting to share with a broader audience for years.

From strategic planning to content batching to marketing & PR differences… You know, the simple things in a communication girl’s life. 💁‍♀️

I am amazed by what we accomplished in 50 weeks (yes, we took 2-weeks off in the year), but I’m also ready for how we can improve.

Although, our most streamed episode received over 150 listens in its first day & 8 lovely guests brought overwhelming awareness to the podcast, there’s still a lot we can do…

And, we’re excited to get started. 💪

However, as the podcast grows and priorities shift, the same goes for life…

With this major accomplishment, we’ve decided to take 6-weeks off from podcasting, email newsletters & social media posts to celebrate summer. 🥳

While we know that consistency is key to success, so is resting & resetting.

We’ll be doing that amid chasing kiddos across open fields and attempting to catch them in lukewarm swimming pools.

What will you be doing this summer? 😜

Lookout for Season 2 of the podcast this fall when we’re back with fresh marketing tips & incredible guests.

Thank you for being such a BIG support to us over this last year! 🤍

HAVE A BURNING QUESTION OVER THE SUMMER⁉️☀️

We’re still coaching and supporting current P&P clients & students, and are taking discovery calls, as needed. ☎️

If you’d like to work with us, please reach out by contacting us via our website. We promise to get back to you within 48 hours!

Welp, that’s all for now friends. Enjoy your summer! ☀️🏖️

Is your marketing sustainable? 🌳

If you’ve been listening to the MYP podcast for a bit now, you know I love a good event, even on 🌎

As someone who has worked for companies that celebrate April 22 all month long, and partnered with a team to communicate their “going green” progress globally four years in a row…

You can expect I choose marketing strategies and tactics that are not just effective, but sustainable too. ♻️

Marketing (like events) costs a ton of money, energy and time, and often leave behind a ton of waste.

Which is why I always suggest implementing marketing and PR strategies that aren’t just money or time savers, but are better for the environment. 🍃💡

If being more thoughtful of the world around you sounds like something you need in your marketing, take a listen to Episode 40 this week.

Here is a preview of the strategies that have stuck with me over my 10+ years in this industry + how they can help you be more sustainable in your biz too. 🌱

1️⃣ Go digital 📲

2️⃣ Invest in sustainable packaging, products or branding 📦

3️⃣ Be vocal about your sustainability choices 🗣

We recently said “buh-bye” to social media 👋 But, we're back already? Here's why...

Stefanie Gass & Team, our VERY first guest on the podcast, and the gal behind Online Business for Christian Women, a Top 20 business podcast, was a big catalyst for us stepping away 🙌

Her online programs led me [Austin] to start my podcast in 2023, and grow it into what it is today.

Stefanie is an incredible business + podcast coach, and a friend of a friend. And now, my friend 💗

In 5 years, this woman has built a successful seven-figure online business without using social media, and now teaches other women how to build their own online businesses in just 2-hours a week with ZERO use of social 🤯

+++

Wondering how you can manage this too?

I sat down with Stef to discuss what happens when you ditch social media & focus on what works for your business. To hear that SOMETHING works is a breath of fresh air… 😮‍💨

If you want to give up countless hours on social too + tap into a tactic that drives a much better ROI in less than half the time, tune into this episode.

Pause ⏸️ Before we enter December, it's time to reflect...

The end of the month is the perfect time to take some time to identify:

✨What went well?

✨What am I grateful for?

✨What could have been better?

Each month, I sit down, bring out my journal, and invite God to help me reflect on the past month and listen for how I can improve for the next!

Do you take time to reflect each month? Let me know in the comments below 👇
