If you’re feeling burnt out, stretched thin, or like you’ve been giving everything to everyone except yourself… then this one’s for you!

In today’s episode, I’m talking about one of the most important (and often overlooked) power moves you can make: showing up for yourself.

Today I’ll share some personal reflections from early in my career, where saying yes to everything slowly led to burnout, and how stepping back changed the way I work, live, and show up in my personal and professional relationships. This episode is a solid reminder that fulfillment doesn’t come from being everything to everyone. It comes from honoring what you need!

You’ll walk away with:

• A mindset shift around self-worth and boundaries
• Three simple, practical ways to start showing up for yourself today
• A reminder that caring for yourself (like you do for others!) is foundational for the life you want to build

What does it really look like to walk away from a stable career and build something completely your own?

In today’s episode of Hour of Happy, I'm sitting down with close friend and powerhouse entrepreneur Brittany Magsig, founder of Mountain Mama’s Cabins; an Airbnb empire nestled in the Smoky Mountains that has captured millions of likes and hundreds of thousands of followers on TikTok.

Before the cabins, the bookings, and the viral content, Brittany was a social worker, deeply committed to helping others in a very different way. In this conversation, we talk candidly about what it took to make the leap from a secure salaried job into full-time entrepreneurship, how Brittany grew from one cabin to managing multiple properties, and how she’s leveraged social media and direct bookings to build a brand that truly stands out.

If you’ve ever felt the pull to reinvent your path, take a calculated risk, or build a business that feels aligned and fulfilling, this episode is for you!

The holidays are supposed to be joyful… but for many business owners, they’re the most stressful weeks of the entire year! Between customer deadlines, family commitments, and the pressure to “do it all,” it’s easy to end up overwhelmed, reactive, and glued to your laptop or phone when you want to be fully present.

In this episode, I share the exact planning strategies I use every year to keep Belle Row and Epic Blue running smoothly—even while I'm out of state visiting family. From batching content and setting workload boundaries to building simple behind-the-scenes systems that handle sales and customer touchpoints automatically, I'll walk you through how to prepare now so you can actually unplug later.

You’ll learn how to: Set clear goals that guide your marketing Block your calendar so your time aligns with your priorities Create content and automations that work while you’re offline Establish holiday cutoffs your customers will actually respect Build “evergreen earners” that generate revenue in the background

When you plan ahead, you don’t have to choose between your business and your family. You get to show up for both with less stress and walk into the holiday season with confidence (not chaos)!
