The Renaissance Podcast
A "renaissance" signifies any revival, transformation, or renewed interest in something, often marked by a burst of creativity, intellectual activity, and cultural development. It’s time to start a Renaissance in your business and LIFE with The Renaissance Podcast, a weekly show for women entrepreneurs. This isn’t just any podcast—it’s your ultimate source for inspiration, education, and the spark you need to revive, renew, and infuse creativity and opportunity into your business.
Entrepreneurship is as much a mindset game as it is about business savvy. That’s why we’re bringing you wisdom from multi-six and seven-figure female founders who share how they support, grow, and operate their successful businesses. They have clarity around their missions and balance it all with home life, motherhood, and mental wellbeing. They're here to show you how they do it. We’re not fans of the “B” word (balance), but we believe it’s possible to run a business that gives you the keys to your dream life—including everything you love—your Renaissance life.
Hosted by Sydney Dozier, founder of Renaissance Marketing Group—one of Nashville’s top social media marketing agencies—and creator of the successful bi-annual Renaissance Women's Summit, this show is all about empowering women to live their Renaissance lives. Sydney’s mission is to inspire you to invest in yourself, because that positive impact WILL and DOES ripple through your business.
Expect to be inspired, empowered, uplifted, and encouraged. Say goodbye to that isolating feeling of being a woman entrepreneur—we’re here to build a community of Renaissance women who share openly and vulnerably about our business journeys.
Your Renaissance is just getting started, and we're so glad you're here!

This week, Sydney sits down with Kimberly Mitchell—a U.S. Navy veteran, author, speaker, and coach—whose story is a powerful reminder that joy isn’t lost, it’s rediscoverable.
Kimberly once found herself in a season where even getting out of bed felt impossible. But that moment became the catalyst for a profound two-year journey she calls “My Journey to Joy.” Through personal healing, spiritual awakening, and intentional self-discovery, she completely transformed her life—and has since made it her mission to help other women do the same.
In this conversation, Kimberly and Sydney discuss:
- What it really looks like to rebuild your life from a place of pain
- Why joy is not a destination but a daily practice
- How women can learn to trust themselves again after seasons of loss or burnout
- The power of identity work and spiritual alignment
- Practical steps to create space for joy—even in challenging seasons
Whether you’re in the middle of your own reset or simply looking for inspiration to reconnect with your joy, Kimberly’s story will move and empower you.
