In this episode, I’m walking you through one simple journal prompt that has the potential to completely shift how you think about the year ahead. This is something I personally do every year on my birthday, and it’s had an incredible impact on my life, my business, and the way I set goals. Instead of getting lost in surface-level resolutions or vague intentions, this exercise helps you zoom out and think about what would truly make the year meaningful (not just at the end of 2026, but d...
I’m so thrilled to share today’s episode with you because I brought on someone I deeply admire, my friend Akua Konadu, to teach a special guest training! This one was prepped during my maternity leave and I can't wait to share it with you. Akua hosts two incredible podcasts and is a gifted storytelling strategist, and she is truly one of the most natural interviewers I know. I knew she’d bring something impactful to you… and she absolutely delivers. In this training, Akua takes us behind the ...
This week, I’m re-sharing one of the most loved Christmas episodes I’ve ever recorded. It originally aired last year, but so many of you told me how helpful and calming it was during the holiday rush that I knew it deserved a second round. If you’re craving a little more peace and organization this season, or if you’re listening for the very first time, you’re in the right place. In this episode, I’m diving into the practical side of holiday prep: keeping track of gifts, making gatherings eas...
In this Christmas episode, I’m sharing two of our family’s favorite faith-centered traditions (that are simple to execute on and have brought a lot of sweetness and meaning into our December). With little ones at home, I’ve learned that the best traditions don’t need to be complicated to make a big impact, and these are ones my kids look forward to all year long. To see pictures of our family traditions, make sure to check out the blog post for this week's episode: https://elizabethmccra...

In this episode, I’m having a real conversation about something every podcaster eventually thinks about: how (and when) to make money from your show. I’m sharing why having a simple plan in place, whether you’re just getting started or already well into your podcasting journey, can completely change the way you show up for your episodes and your audience. That doesn’t mean I think you need to start pressuring yourself to monetize immediately, either. Instead, I want to help you get clea...
Is your website working for your business or quietly holding you back? In today’s episode, I’m walking you through a simple (yet powerful!) 5-minute website audit you can do right now to find out. We’re talking clarity, brand alignment, mobile design (hello, 60%+ of your viewers!), personality, and whether your site is actually doing its job (whether that’s booking clients, bringing in inquiries, growing your email list, or selling digital products). The truth? A lot of business owners think ...
You’re in for such a treat with today’s episode! I’ve brought on the wonderful Shanna Skidmore to talk about something that’s so close to my heart: how to work less, mom more, and still hit your goals. In this episode, she shares why you don’t need a nap time hustle, a 40-hour workweek, or a “passive income” empire to run a profitable business as a mom. In fact, she’s pulling back the curtain on how she built (and rebuilt) a multi-six-figure business while raising two kids and working just 15...
In today’s episode, I’m wrapping up my birth series with something I’ve been so excited to share — my best postpartum advice (after three very different experiences). I’m currently three months postpartum with baby Sofia, and after walking through this season three times now, I’ve learned so much about what truly matters, and what doesn’t, in those early months after birth. Instead of focusing just on recovery or baby care, this episode is all about the real-life side of postpartum — how to r...
This week on the podcast, I’m wrapping up my birth story series with something really fun - a Q&A episode! After sharing Sofia’s birth story and the journey leading up to it, I wanted to take some time to answer the most common questions you all sent me about birth, mindset, and preparation. In this episode, I’m chatting through everything from what surprised me the most to the mental and emotional work that went into preparing for this season. I also open up about some behind-the-scenes...
In this episode, I’m sharing Sofia’s incredible birth story, and how God provided me with truly everything I’ve ever wanted in a birth. After two very different births with my boys (one ending in an unexpected C-section and another full of surrender and faith), this home birth felt like everything coming full circle. From the moment labor began to the second I held her in my arms, I could see God’s hand over every single detail. You’ll hear all about the final days leading up to Sofia’s birt...
In this episode, I’m sharing one of the most personal journeys I’ve ever shared: the path from having a C-section with my second baby to experiencing a home birth with my third, our sweet Sofia Kate McCravy. Just seven months after my C-section, I found myself pregnant again, facing a decision I never expected to make so soon: Would I try for a VBAC, schedule a repeat C-section, or try for the home birth I had always quietly longed for (but felt unlikely)? I walk you through the ups and...
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to run a business while raising little ones at home. At the time of recording, I had two young kids by my side (and was deep into preparing for baby #3!), so I know firsthand the challenges of balancing work and motherhood. I’ll share what this season looks like for me right now, the mindset shifts that have made all the difference, and a few of the PRACTICAL ways I’ve structured my business so I can be present with my...
Ever felt like your entire business depends on your hustle, your content calendar, or the algorithm? On this episode of the Breakthrough Brand Podcast, I’m bringing you business coach and digital marketer Natania of Natania Creates to share a truth every entrepreneur needs to hear: your business is sustained by God, not your grind. Natania gets real about her own forced season of rest after becoming a first-time mom, and how it exposed her wrestle with ambition, identity, and control. She sh...
Running a business doesn’t have to feel like a constant uphill battle but sometimes we unknowingly make it harder than it needs to be. Whether you’re just starting out or have been building your business for years, there are certain habits, mindsets, and patterns that creep in and quietly slow down your growth. The good news? You can quit them today and your business (and life!) will be better for it. In this episode, I’m sharing 14 things you might be doing that are making business harder an...
Lately, my “content calendar” looks a lot like baby snuggles, coffee refills, and… not much time for social media. And that’s okay! Because SEO blogging is one of the things working behind the scenes for me. One well-crafted blog post can keep showing up in search results, sending me traffic and leads long after I’ve hit publish. It’s the exact strategy I wish more business owners used, and today we’re talking all about it. In this episode, I’m bringing you my podcast manager (and blogging ex...
Hey friends! As you're tuning in, I'm currently out on maternity leave (soaking up the baby snuggles!), and I've invited some of my amazing business friends to share guest trainings with you while I'm away. I'm kicking things off with none other than my dear friend Stephanie Kase (who you've probably heard on the podcast before). She's brilliant, grounded, and brings so much practical wisdom, especially around evergreen marketing. Stephanie's diving into a topic both of us are passionate abou...
In this short little episode, I’m sharing what’s coming on the Breakthrough Brand Podcast while I’m on maternity leave with baby #3 — hint: there are some really awesome episodes planned! I also share a little about birth things, how my business will be functioning while I’m away, and more. Enjoy this short little chit chat, and then go back through some old episodes and download/listen to some things you may have missed! And, like I say in the audio, if you have never left a rating/rev...
In this episode, I’m sharing two scriptures that have been deeply meaningful to me lately, especially as I think and pray over my business. If you’ve been following this podcast for a while, you know I love weaving faith into entrepreneurship, and every time I’ve done scripture-based episodes, the response from you all has been so encouraging. So today, we’re doing it again! We’re looking at two verses from 1 Thessalonians. The first, 1 Thessalonians 4:11, talks about living a quiet life, min...
