   REPLAY — You’re Already Investing in Your Purpose

   THIS WEEK'S SHOW NOTES Nobody gets to put a dollar amount on your purpose. Not $100,000. Not zero. That number is yours. It always has been. Wendy and Krystal are spending the summer with their families. While they're away, they're reaching back into the vault and pulling episodes that deserve a second listen — each with a fresh intro reflecting on what's changed, what's held up, and why this one is worth your ears right now. Wendy's Vault Intro: What She'd Add Now When Wendy went back and listened to this one, she felt it differently. This episode was sparked by a post circulating online claiming that if you weren't willing to invest a minimum of $100,000 a year in coaching, masterminds, and retreats, you might as well quit and go back to your nine-to-five. Wendy and Krystal had a lot to say about that — and still do. But what stayed with Wendy two and a half years later isn't the pushback. It's this: you are already investing in your purpose every single day. In the hours you pour in. The boundaries you hold. The clients you show up for. The way you keep choosing this path even when it's hard. That is purposeful investment. And the most powerful thing you can do is know your purpose so deeply that no fear-based marketing tactic can ever shake you from it. About This Episode (Originally Aired January 2024) A viral post. A hot take. And two business coaches who weren't having it. In this episode, Wendy and Krystal dismantle the fear-based investment culture that tells women they aren't serious enough, spending enough, or committed enough unless they're writing five-figure checks. They get real about what investment actually means — in time, energy, money, and purpose — and why the most important question before any coaching purchase isn't "can I afford this?" but "does this actually fit who I am and where I'm going?" This episode is for you if: ● You've ever felt like you weren't serious enough about your business because you couldn't afford a high-ticket program ● You've invested in coaching or courses that didn't deliver — and quietly blamed yourself ● You've made a financial decision from panic or FOMO rather than alignment ● You're tired of the "invest in yourself" language being used as a pressure tactic ● You need a reminder that what you're already doing counts as investment — because it does In this episode, we explore: ● Why the "invest $100K or go back to your nine-to-five" narrative is manipulative, dangerous, and self-serving ● How investment actually works — across money, time, energy, and community — and why none of those are interchangeable ● Why there is no guarantee that any dollar amount spent on coaching produces a return on investment ● The difference between investing in yourself and investing in your purpose — and why only one of them actually holds up ● Why completing a course or coaching program is more complicated than the industry wants to admit ● What good coaching actually does: it saves you time, money, and from yourself — it doesn't wave a magic wand ● Why the freedom and flexibility of entrepreneurship is the point — and why anyone trying to force you into one formula is selling something ● How to evaluate any investment decision: does it fit your bandwidth, your season, your offer, and your purpose? ● The gut check: if it feels yucky, it's yucky You'll walk away asking yourself: 👉 Where am I already investing in my purpose every day — without a price tag, without anyone's permission? 👉 Am I considering a coaching or program investment from alignment — or from fear that I'm not doing enough? 👉 Does this investment fit my bandwidth, my time runway, and where I actually am right now? 👉 If it feels yucky — what is that telling me, and am I listening? One of the most memorable moments? When Krystal lands on the distinction that reframes the whole episode: "Investing in yourself — what the hell does that mean? But invest in your purpose? We do that every day. Whether that's buying stuff for our kids, paying our bills at home, or how we operate our business — it all comes back to that big purpose piece. So it doesn't feel like a bad investment at any given time." That's the line. That's the whole thing. 💜 Missing Us? We're Still in the Community While we're spending the summer with our families, we're still showing up weekly in the SAVOUR™️ Community. If this episode stirred something — if you've been carrying shame about an investment that didn't land or pressure about what you "should" be spending — bring it there. You're not alone, and the conversation is a lot more honest than what you'll find in most online spaces.

We'll never tell you what you have to spend to be serious. We'll help you figure out what actually makes sense for you. You're already investing in your purpose. You have been all along. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Meet Your Hosts We’re Wendy & Krystal—two travel entrepreneurs turned business and marketing coaches.

   REPLAY: What Temporal Landmarks Taught Us About Purpose, Progress, and Paying Attention

   THIS WEEK'S SHOW NOTES What if the most powerful goal-setting tool you have isn't a planner, a framework, or a new year — it's a date that already changed everything for you? Wendy and Krystal are spending the summer with their families. While they're away, they're reaching back into the vault and pulling episodes that deserve a second listen — each with a fresh intro reflecting on what's changed, what's held up, and why this particular episode is worth revisiting right now. Why This One, Why Now This one was Krystal's idea. And she was right. This episode has been living rent-free in her head lately, and once you hear it, you'll understand why. Originally recorded in May of 2023, Wendy and Krystal got genuinely personal about the dates that changed everything for them. Wendy's April 21st. Krystal's January — over and over again. The episodes, the surgeries, the leaps, the losses. And why those dates carry more motivational power than any resolution or reset ever could. Grab your journal. This one is worth sitting with. About This Episode (Originally Aired May 2023) What is a temporal landmark and why does it matter so much more than a New Year's resolution? In this episode, Wendy and Krystal dig into the research behind temporal landmarks: the dates and moments in time that create a real psychological before and after. They explore what makes certain dates personally significant, how to use them to set more meaningful goals, and why the most powerful fresh starts aren't assigned by the calendar. They're earned through lived experience. This episode is for you if: ● You've tried New Year's resolutions and watched them dissolve by February every single time ● You have a date in your life that stopped you cold and changed everything after it ● You need a fresh start but can't find one in a calendar square that feels arbitrary ● You're at a point of friction right now and trying to understand why and what to do with it ● You want to celebrate how far you've come but haven't found a way to make it meaningful In this episode, we explore: ● What a temporal landmark actually is and why it's a completely different animal from a birthday or a holiday ● The "fresh start effect": how temporal landmarks create psychological distance from our past selves and open a door to new behavior ● Why research shows people are more likely to pursue goals immediately after a significant temporal landmark ● Wendy's April 21st — the day she lost her job, her then-boyfriend said "come to Guam," and everything changed ● Why January keeps showing up as Krystal's month: moves, marriages, a child's birth, Sydney's brain surgeries, and the founding of Serendipitous Rebel ● How to identify the dates that are already yours and not the ones the calendar assigned you ● Why the 21st became Wendy's monthly check-in date and how to build a rhythm around your own landmarks ● How temporal landmarks help you celebrate progress at the checkpoints, not just the finish line ● How to construct your own turning points intentionally, even from moments of loss, friction, or fear You'll walk away asking yourself: 👉 What date already lives in my body as a before and after? Have I given it the weight it deserves? 👉 Am I using arbitrary calendar dates to set goals or dates that actually mean something to me? 👉 What would it look like to build a monthly or seasonal check-in ritual around my own landmarks? 👉 Where am I right now: before a moment, in the middle of one, or finally on the other side? One of the most memorable moments? When Wendy says: "I think the more meaningful the temporal landmark is, the stronger the motivational power." It sounds simple. But it reframes everything about how we set goals, celebrate progress, and build momentum — not around what the calendar says, but around what our lives have actually taught us. 💜 Missing Us?

   REPLAY: Is Now A Good Time To Be An Entrepreneur

   THIS WEEK'S SHOW NOTES Is now a good time to be an entrepreneur? Two and a half years after we first answered that question, the answer still stands — but what it means has gotten a lot more interesting. Wendy and Krystal are spending the summer with their families. While they're away, they're reaching back into the vault and pulling episodes that deserve a second listen, each with a fresh intro from reflecting on what's changed, what's held up, and what she'd say differently now. Wendy's Vault Intro: What She'd Add Now When Wendy went back and listened to this one, she felt it differently. This episode was originally sparked by a post circulating online claiming that if you weren't willing to invest a minimum of $100,000 a year in coaching, masterminds, and retreats, you might as well go back to your nine-to-five. Wendy and Krystal had a lot to say about that. But two and a half years later, what stayed with Wendy wasn't the pushback. It was the core truth underneath it: you are already investing in your purpose every single day. In the hours you pour in. The boundaries you hold. The clients you show up for. The way you keep choosing this path even when it's hard. That is purposeful investment. And nobody gets to put a dollar amount on it. About This Episode (Originally Aired June 2022) Inspired by a Business Insider article on the easiest businesses to start as a solopreneur, Wendy and Krystal get honest about what that "easy" really means and what it doesn't. They unpack the real variables behind going out on your own: runway, capital, time, priorities, and what it actually takes to build something sustainable. It's the conversation every aspiring or early-stage entrepreneur needs to hear before they quit their job. This episode is for you if: ● You've been thinking about leaving your nine-to-five and aren't sure if now is the right time ● You're already in business and sometimes question whether you made the right call ● You've bought into fear-based coaching marketing that made you feel like you're not investing enough or not serious enough ● You're building a side hustle and trying to figure out when, or whether, to pull the trigger ● You've said "I want to make six figures" without fully calculating what that number actually needs to look like In this episode, we explore: ● Why "it's easy to start a business" is true in one narrow sense and deeply misleading in every other ● The real barrier to entrepreneurship isn't incorporation paperwork, it's getting and keeping clients ● How to think about your financial runway before you leap and why $100K in revenue is not the same as $100K in your pocket ● The side hustle approach: when it's the smart move and when it keeps you perpetually stuck at the gate ● Why knowing what you actually want — the end goal, the lifestyle, the definition of done — has to come before strategy ● What the job market and the post-COVID shift in how we work have changed about the entrepreneurial opportunity landscape ● How to evaluate whether entrepreneurship is a purposeful pivot for you right now or magical thinking in disguise ● Why the best investment you'll ever make is in understanding your own purpose deeply enough that fear-based marketing can't shake you You'll walk away asking yourself: 👉 Where have I already been investing in my purpose, without anyone's permission and without a price tag attached? 👉 Do I know what my actual runway is — financial, time, and capacity — before I make my next big business decision? 👉 Am I making business investments from alignment, or from fear that I'm not doing enough? 👉 What does done look like for me and am I building toward that, or toward someone else's version of success? One of the most memorable moments? When Krystal says: "It can be a really great pivot if you're purposeful." Four words that cut through every piece of hype, every guru post, every "quit your job and follow your dream" headline. Purposeful. That's the whole equation. 💜 Missing Us?
