Running toward the fire.Taking one small step.Building in seasons.Betting on yourself.Creating before proof exists.

This isn’t a recap. It’s a reminder. If something in your life feels heavy, uncertain, or bigger than comfort, this episode is an invitation to step closer.

You don’t need to be fearless. You just need to move.

In this episode, April sits down with longtime friend and entrepreneur Jodi Scott to share the story behind The Winfield Inn and her first steps into building businesses. From discovering an unexpected property to building it into a beloved wedding and event venue rooted in love and community.

Jodi opens up about taking brave leaps, navigating business challenges, and allowing support during life’s hardest seasons. Together, they explore what it means to build a legacy, lead with heart, and let fear be fuel instead of a finish line.

In this episode, Amy and Molly share the behind-the-scenes story of founding Recess from the “why not?” moments, late-night conversations, and the bold decision to leap into entrepreneurship.

From dreaming about becoming founders as young girls to identifying a real market need for families craving better experience for searching and booking camps and classes, Amy and Molly walk through the early collaborations, the setbacks, and the trust that became the foundation of their partnership. This conversation is about more than startups. It’s about trust. It’s about resilience. It’s about believing “we can do better” and being brave enough to try.
