Painted Pancake Studio: On Creativity, Quitting Corporate, and Showing Up As You Are
<p>Got everything. Also worth noting her Facebook following has grown significantly since the episode was recorded, now sitting at nearly 98,000 likes. Here's the updated description with all verified links:</p><p>In this episode I am sitting down with Desiree Horner, the creative force behind Painted Pancake Studio, and I have to tell you this conversation went completely off script in the best possible way.</p><p>Desiree is a self-taught artist and content creator based in Texas who has built a following of nearly 60,000 people on Facebook by doing one thing really well: showing up exactly as she is. Paint on her clothes, hair out of her face, no filter, no performance. Just her art and everything she knows about it.</p><p>We talked about what it actually looks like to quit a stable corporate job when everything piles up at once. We talked about being a mom of three daughters spread across basically two different generations, the guilt of being the last pickup at daycare, and what it feels like to finally be home and present for the one you almost missed. We talked about going viral, what it does and does not do for your business, and why she made the decision to teach people how to do what she does instead of just selling the finished product.</p><p>Desiree is also one of the most generous creators I have come across online. She answers her comments over breakfast, she gatekeeps nothing, and she has received messages from women telling her that picking up foam board and paint pulled them out of a genuine funk. That is the kind of impact she is having and it comes through in every single minute of this conversation.</p><p>We also bonded over reading, breakfast food, the Sunday scaries of summer break, raising kids in a world that did not exist when we were growing up, and the very real mental load of being a working mom who eventually decided she did not have to do it all alone anymore.</p><p>Fair warning, we jumped right in without a formal introduction and we never really stopped talking. I had a whole list of prepared questions and we got to maybe half of them. So if you love this conversation as much as I do, stay tuned because I have a feeling Desiree will be back.</p><p><strong>Find Desiree:</strong> </p><p>Facebook: facebook.com/Paintedpancakestudio </p><p>TikTok: @painted.pancake </p><p>Instagram: @PaintedPancakeDesiree </p><p>Etsy: etsy.com/shop/paintedpancakestudio </p><p>Amazon Storefront: amzn.to/4m2sK9c </p><p>Lowe's Storefront: shoplowes.me/465EJ0f </p><p>Meeden Art Supplies (use code DESIREE for 15% off): <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://meedenart.com">meedenart.com</a> </p><p>YouTube: youtube.com/@paintedpancakedesiree </p><p>Facebook Community Group: Foamboard Creators and Yard Art DIY </p><p>Linktree: linktr.ee/PaintedPancakeStudio</p><p></p><p><strong>Find Me!</strong> New Instagram handle: @natalie.lisk </p>

Bugs, Buns & Business: The Lice Lady Who Turned a Nightmare into an 11-Year Empire
<p>If you listened to our first episode, you know I went through the full lice spiral - the panic, the Walgreens parking lot, the kid screaming while I'm trying to absorb instructions I couldn't hear. The woman who talked me off the ledge and actually saved us - twice - is Sarah DeMarzo, owner of Lizzie's Lice Pickers right here in Orange, CA. I've wanted to get her on the podcast since the moment I sat across from her at her salon desk, completely overwhelmed, and she just looked at me and said "you're going to be fine."</p><p>We sat down in her salon (yes, the one above the gym I've been working out at for years without knowing what was upstairs 😅) and talked through everything - lice facts, what actually works, what's a total waste of money, and why the stigma exists in the first place. But honestly, what I didn't expect was how much of this conversation ended up being about working motherhood, building something on your own schedule, and showing up for your kids without sacrificing yourself. Sarah has been doing this for 13 years and she has a lot of wisdom. </p><p>I hope you love her as much as I do.</p><p></p><p>Episode Highlights</p><ul><li><strong>00:00</strong>I introduce Sarah and embarrassingly recap how she saved us - from the parking lot call to sitting in her salon chair</li><li><strong>~03:00</strong>Sarah tells me how she got into this: her daughter's birthday, bugs crawling in the salon chair, and 5 hours of treating that didn't work</li><li><strong>~08:00</strong>How working part-time turned into 6 days a week - and why her husband basically told her to just go do it herself</li><li><strong>~12:00</strong>What it looked like raising her girls in the salon - the back room with the TV, toys, and pizza orders</li><li><strong>~16:00</strong>I had no idea she does free camp screenings for foster kids. This part got me.</li><li><strong>~20:00</strong>I ask why lice is so stigmatized - and she explains something I genuinely never knew: head lice and body lice are completely different things</li><li><strong>~26:00</strong>The Walgreens parking lot moment. She talks me through why RID and NIX mostly don't work anymore (and I was standing there about to buy both)</li><li><strong>~32:00</strong>What actually works - enzyme treatments, dry combing, and how to handle it at home if you have to</li><li><strong>~36:00</strong>We talk seasonal patterns and I take notes: summer camps, Halloween hats, the last-day-of-school hug problem. It's all real.</li><li><strong>~40:00</strong>I ask her for the most unhinged parent reaction she's ever seen. She takes a breath before answering. That's all I'll say.</li><li><strong>~46:00</strong>Scientists flew from the East Coast to buy her bugs. She thought the email was a joke.</li><li><strong>~52:00</strong>Lightning round! I ask her everything from "worst time to find lice" to "tea tree oil: myth or not" (spoiler: myth)</li><li><strong>~58:00</strong>We wrap with her advice on working motherhood, mom guilt, and what she'd do with a completely free day</li></ul><p></p><p>Resources & Contact</p><p><strong>Business </strong>Lizzie's Lice Pickers - Orange, CA (2nd floor, discreet entrance)</p><p><strong>Phone </strong>714-602-6274</p><p><strong>Find Online </strong>Google or Yelp: "Lizzie's Lice Pickers"</p><p><strong>Hours </strong>By appointment only</p><p><strong>Services </strong>Head checks, full treatment, take-home kits, enzyme spray, school screenings (private schools), camp screenings</p>

You didn’t miss something obvious. And you’re definitely not alone.</p><p>If you’re dealing with lice right now, I see you. If you’ve been through it before, solidarity.</p><p>And if you haven’t yet… consider this your warning and your prep guide.</p><p></p><p>If this episode helped you, send it to a friend, especially one who might be dealing with lice right now or has kids in school.</p><p>And if this hits your house someday, come back to this episode… I promise you’ll want it.</p><p>I’ll be back soon with another episode sharing actual tips and tricks to prevent and treat lice more effectively.</p><p>Love you, mean it.</p>
