  How We Built a Business As a Couple: Paid Ads, Branding & Scalable Systems 16.10.2026 27m

  In this podcast episode of Say It With Your Chest (SIWYC), Tamara Meyer and Jordan Emsermann reintroduce themselves, share how their relationship became a business partnership, and break down what they have learned about business coaching, organic marketing, paid advertising, branding and building scalable systems.And yes, it starts with the story of how a one-night stand somehow turned into a relationship, two cats and eventually building a business together.But behind the banter is a much bigger story.Jordan opens up about spending more than 20 years as a boilermaker, earning a strong income but becoming increasingly unhappy with the life he had built. He shares the mental health struggles that came with that period, the moment he finally walked away from a $200,000-a-year career, and how taking a risk on digital marketing changed the direction of his life.Together, Tamara and Jordan unpack what the last two years of building Empire Mentorship have actually taught them.They have invested in mentors, agencies and consultants. They have made mistakes. They have tested strategies that worked and others that absolutely did not.Those experiences eventually helped them understand something crucial: growing a business is not just about posting more content or running more ads.You need the front end and the back end working together.If you're a coach, service-based entrepreneur, female founder, fitness professional, personal trainer or business owner who wants to build more visibility and income, this conversation gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the philosophy behind Empire Mentorship and the VOICE Method.This is business coaching with implementation, accountability and strategy, designed to help business owners build a brand people remember and the systems required to support its growth.00:00 Bali Chaos Before the Podcast Begins01:35 Reintroducing Tamara & Jordan03:18 Our Partnership With Muscle Republic04:35 How Our Relationship Actually Started07:21 Jordan's Story Before Business Coaching09:13 When a Successful Career Stops Feeling Successful10:50 Leaving a $200K Career for Digital Marketing11:49 Taking the Risk to Build a Business Together13:17 The Lessons Behind Empire Mentorship14:50 Our Different Roles in the Business15:48 The VOICE Method Explained17:02 Paid Advertising, Funnels & Customer Journeys18:20 Removing the Guesswork From Your Marketing19:24 How We Track Data and Find What's Broken20:44 Why "Boring" Businesses Often Grow22:44 Why We're More Than Business Coaches24:49 Who Empire Mentorship Is Built For26:59 Why Another Masterclass May Not Solve the Problem27:46 Building an End-to-End Business System29:18 Looking Deeper Into the Customer Journey29:41 Is Empire Mentorship Right for You?31:18 Final Thoughts From BaliIf you're ready to stop guessing and want support building your messaging, visibility, paid marketing and scalable business systems, apply for a free 15-minute Growth Map Plan to explore whether Empire Mentorship is the right fit for you.Content note: This episode includes discussion of mental health and suicidal thoughts.#BusinessCoaching #BusinessGrowth #PaidAdvertising #DigitalMarketing #PersonalBranding #ContentMarketing #ServiceBasedBusiness #FemaleEntrepreneurs #BusinessStrategy #Entrepreneurship #TamaraMeyer #SIWYC📩 DM "SIWYC" on Instagram to⁠ @tamarameyer___ to get an exclusive offer for our listeners🎧 Please LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more business, branding, and content creation strategies!

  Alex Fevola: Loss, Motherhood, Business & Finding Your Voice 25.09.2026 43m

  In this podcast episode of Say It With Your Chest (SIWYC), Tamara Meyer sits down with Alex Fevola for a raw conversation about resilience, loss, female entrepreneurship, motherhood, marriage, public judgement and building the Australian beauty brand Runway Room.Behind the successful founder and beauty brand is a story most people have never seen.Alex opens up about becoming a mother at a young age, losing her former partner to suicide, experiencing a serious medical emergency shortly afterwards, and how those experiences shaped the resilience she later brought into business and public life.She also shares what it was like navigating a relationship in the public eye, separating and eventually reconnecting with Brendan, and why finding her independence became such an important part of finding her confidence and voice.The conversation then turns to business.After more than 25 years working as a makeup artist, Alex saw a gap in the beauty industry and created Runway Room around a simple idea: make professional hair, makeup and beauty services more accessible to everyday women.She explains how that service business evolved into an Australian beauty brand, why consistency and product quality have remained central to the company, and how Runway Room is approaching sustainability, refillable products and its continued retail expansion.Tamara and Alex also get honest about the reality of being a female founder. They discuss resilience when business gets difficult, balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship, supporting your partner's ambitions, dealing with judgement online and why building something meaningful requires far more than chasing money.The episode opens with Alex sharing her frustration with recent Australian government decisions and what she believes they mean for small business owners, before exploring the resilience founders need when circumstances outside their control change.Above all, this conversation is about refusing to shrink yourself.As Alex puts it, finding your voice means being unapologetically yourself, standing firmly in your values and not allowing other people's opinions to determine who you become.Chapters:00:06 Meet Alex Fevola00:22 Small Business and the Australian Budget03:25 Why Resilience Matters in Business05:24 The Personal Story Most People Don't Know09:42 The Experiences That Shaped Alex10:20 Marriage, Public Life and Independence12:24 Taking Back Your Power16:29 How Runway Room Began19:59 Beauty Without Compromising Your Values20:43 Sustainability and Beauty Products22:45 Why Beauty Can Build Confidence24:24 Passion, Business and Long-Term Success26:18 Motherhood, Business and Priorities28:10 Why Alex Kept Her Past Private31:38 Building a Partnership That Supports Both Careers34:32 What's Next for Runway Room36:37 How to Handle Judgement Online39:16 What Finding Your Voice Really Means40:11 Final ThoughtsDisclaimer: This episode includes discussion of suicide, grief and medical trauma.#AlexFevola #RunwayRoom #FemaleEntrepreneur #WomenInBusiness #BusinessResilience #FemaleFounders #BeautyBusiness #PersonalBranding #Entrepreneurship #TamaraMeyer #SIWYC📩 DM "SIWYC" on Instagram to⁠ @tamarameyercoach⁠ to get an exclusive offer for our listeners🎧 Please LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more business, branding, and content creation strategies!

  Endometriosis Symptoms Women Should Never Ignore | Top Signs Women Miss 18.09.2026 45m

  In this podcast episode of Say It With Your Chest (SIWYC), Tamara Meyer sits down with Dr Tina Fleming for an honest conversation about endometriosis, painful periods, fertility and why so many women spend years being told their symptoms are normal.What if the pain you’ve learned to live with was never something you were supposed to normalise?Dr Tina Fleming breaks down what women need to know about endometriosis symptoms, pelvic pain, painful sex and the difference between normal menstrual discomfort and symptoms that deserve further investigation.Tamara also shares her own experience of being diagnosed with endometriosis, the fear of going into surgery and wondering whether anything would be found, and what recovery looked like physically and emotionally.Together, they discuss why women can feel dismissed when seeking medical help, why a normal ultrasound does not necessarily end the conversation around endometriosis, and how treatment may involve a combination of lifestyle support, hormonal management and surgery depending on the individual.The conversation also explores endometriosis and fertility, including natural conception, fertility preservation, egg and embryo freezing, age-related considerations and how women can approach family planning without allowing outside pressure to make the decision for them.This episode is ultimately about something bigger than a diagnosis. It is about learning to listen to your body, asking better questions, seeking appropriate expert advice and refusing to keep normalising symptoms that are affecting your quality of life.00:15 Meet Dr Tina Fleming00:30 Why Endometriosis Needs to Be Taken Seriously02:42 Are Women’s Pain Symptoms Being Dismissed?04:53 “What If They Find Nothing?”07:51 What Does a Normal Period Actually Feel Like?10:34 When Period Pain Becomes a Red Flag11:06 Painful Sex, Endometriosis and Intimacy12:53 Can Endometriosis Be Missed on an Ultrasound?14:12 What Should You Do If You Suspect Endometriosis?17:28 Stress, Trauma and Pelvic Pain19:37 Understanding the Stages of Endometriosis20:58 What Women Should Ask After Endometriosis Surgery22:01 Preparing for Surgery and Recovery27:51 Reproductive Leave and Supporting Women at Work29:47 The Future of Endometriosis Diagnosis and Treatment32:45 Endometriosis and Fertility35:21 Egg Freezing, Embryos and Fertility Preservation38:20 Family Planning Without Outside Pressure40:36 Dr Tina Fleming on Finding Your Voice41:31 Rapid Fire: Endometriosis and Fertility Questions43:01 Final ThoughtsThis conversation is for educational purposes and should not replace personalised medical advice from a qualified healthcare professional.#Endometriosis #EndometriosisAwareness #WomensHealth #Fertility #FertilityJourney #PeriodPain #PelvicPain #EndometriosisSupport #DrTinaFleming #TamaraMeyer #SIWYC📩 DM "SIWYC" on Instagram to⁠ @tamarameyercoach⁠ to get an exclusive offer for our listeners🎧 Please LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more business, branding, and content creation strategies!

  Is AI Killing Your Personal Brand? Here's The Fix 11.09.2026 11m

  Every feed looks the same right now, and it's because everyone's using the same AI prompt. If your content could belong to anyone, it's not building your personal brand — it's erasing it.I'm calling it. AI is making personal brands boring, and if you're a female entrepreneur or small business owner relying on generic AI content, you're losing trust before you even get a sale. In this solo episode of Say It With Your Chest, I break down exactly why copy-paste AI content is quietly killing your personal brand — and what to do instead if you're serious about scaling a service business.We talk about the toxic polish trend taking over online business right now: same graphics, same captions, same faces changing shape, same lack of a human behind the screen. If you want to stand out in content strategy for 2025, you cannot sound like everyone else. I've been in the online space over 12 years, and the businesses winning right now are the ones leading with voice, opinion, and lived experience — not chatbots.I'm giving you my Human First AI framework (Think, Amplify, Publish) plus my POV test — a 30-second gut check to run before you post anything, so you know if it's actually you or just AI doing the talking. This is sales for coaches, money mindset, and empire building all rolled into one no-fluff rant.If you're building a personal brand, growing an online business, or trying to figure out how AI actually fits into your content strategy without losing your identity, this episode is for you.Send this to the person in your group chat who's still posting the same AI carousel as everyone else.Tam xAlso on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtN9rHkQSuM

  The Hidden Cost of People Pleasing (And Your Business) 04.09.2026 12m

  You are losing clients trying to keep strangers happy. Real talk: not everyone should like you, and that's exactly the point.I'm going to expose something today. People pleasing isn't just a personal problem. It's a business problem. It's the thing quietly capping your income, watering down your content, and keeping your dream clients from ever finding you.Here's the hot take: the safest content is usually the worst content. When you're too busy worrying about who's going to unfollow you or judge your opinion, you play it vanilla. You stop showing up as you. And your ideal audience, the people actually built to buy from you, can't find you in all that beige.I grew up wanting to be the popular kid. Wanting everyone at my birthday party. Nadine Muller said something to me I've stolen ever since: I have a lot of networks, very few real friends. Took me years of unlearning to be okay with that. Even Jordan and my team will tell you, I've had to actively kill my people pleasing tendencies to build the business and personal brand I have now. Criticism used to terrify me. Now I know it means people are paying attention. I'd rather divide a room than be ignored in one.This episode is for every female entrepreneur, every coach, every service provider quietly shrinking themselves online because they're scared of an opinion. Your dream clients want certainty, not a happy little butterfly with no personality. Stop performing perfect. Start building an empire on being unapologetically you.Send this to the person in your life who still can't say no.Tam x👍 LIKE if this hit a nerve🔔 SUBSCRIBE for new episodes — we say the thing everyone's thinking💬 COMMENT: what landed for you?↗️ SHARE this with the woman in business who needs to hear it#SayItWithYourChest #womeninbusiness #businesspodcast

  Cleo Massey on Fame, Rejection & Manifesting Everything 02.09.2026 1h 1m

  Cleo Massey went from teen stardom on H2O to online bullies telling her to end her life — and came out the other side building an empire on manifestation and boundaries. This one will wreck your excuses.I know this is going to sound woo-woo to some of you but stay with me here — this conversation with Cleo Massey changed how I think about ambition, comparison and money mindset completely.Cleo was 11 when she landed her role on H2O: Just Add Water. By 15 she was reading hate comments from strangers telling her to kill herself. A manager in LA told her she "wasn't a real actor" unless she got nude. And instead of staying bitter, she built Pass Around the Smile — a manifestation and personal brand business that's now hosting retreats and coaching people on the law of attraction. That's not luck. That's someone who did the real work.We got into the stuff that actually matters for women in business and anyone building an online business right now: how social media comparison quietly kills your confidence, why chasing a dream to prove something to other people will never manifest anything, and how boundaries — not hustle — are what actually protect your peace as a female entrepreneur, a mum, a business owner, whatever hat you're wearing that day.Jordan and I argued about this one after we stopped recording (of course we did) — he's logic, I'm law of attraction, and somehow we both walked away agreeing Cleo's right about surrendering control. If you're scaling a service business, building a personal brand, or just trying to figure out sales for coaches without burning out, this episode is your permission slip to do less and still build the empire.Send this to the person in your life who's stuck comparing their chapter one to someone else's chapter twenty.Tam x👍 LIKE if this hit a nerve🔔 SUBSCRIBE for new episodes — we say the thing everyone's thinking💬 COMMENT: what landed for you?↗️ SHARE this with the woman in business who needs to hear it#SayItWithYourChest #womeninbusiness #businesspodcast

  Why 'I'm Still Healing' Is Killing Your Business | SWYC 24.07.2026 12m

  Episode 165: 🎙️ Why 'I'm Still Healing' Is Killing Your Business | Say It With Your Chest with Tamara MeyerYou don't need more healing. You need a backbone, a wake-up call, and a plan. I said it — and I'm not taking it back.This one's spicy and I'm not sorry. We went from toxic positivity to toxic "healing culture" in about five years flat, and now every female entrepreneur I know is stuck in the same loop: I'm just healing, I need more time, I can't show up yet. Meanwhile the business isn't building, the content isn't posting, and the excuse just keeps rotating.I'm not dismissing real struggle — I'm the queen of avoidance, I've had the darkest periods of my life this year and I'll say it on camera. But there's a difference between processing something and hiding behind it forever. If you've been "healing" for three years and nothing's moved — not your online business, not your sales, not your content strategy, not your personal brand — that's not healing. That's stalling.In this episode I break down the three things that actually shift you from stuck to moving: owning exactly where you're at (no spin, no filter), communicating it to the people who actually need to know (this is huge if you're scaling a service business and your team or clients are wondering why you've gone quiet), and being prepared for the fallout when you finally say the honest thing out loud. Some people will show up. Some won't. That's information, not failure.This is money mindset, business podcast, and mental health all crashing into each other in one conversation — because that's real life when you're trying to build an empire and stay a whole person at the same time.If you're a coach, a founder, or just someone who's been hiding behind "I'm healing" for way too long — this one's for you.Tam x👍 LIKE if this hit a nerve🔔 SUBSCRIBE for new episodes — we say the thing everyone's thinking💬 COMMENT: what landed for you?↗️ SHARE this with the woman in business who needs to hear it#SayItWithYourChest #womeninbusiness #businesspodcast
