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!
The Renaissance Podcast is brought to you by Renaissance Marketing Group—a premier full-service social media agency based in Nashville.

Hills I’ll Die On as a Female Founder in 2026
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There are a few things I believe so deeply as a female founder in 2026… they’re non-negotiables.
In this solo episode, I’m sharing the hills I will die on when it comes to building a sustainable, profitable, and actually enjoyable business.
We’re talking about:
• Why hiring a virtual assistant is no longer optional
• The truth about trying to do 100% of your marketing yourself (and why it’s holding you back)
• Protecting your energy as a CEO and building “back pocket” refreshers to avoid burnout
• Creating space for joy, creativity, and real life
• Why the rooms you put yourself in matter more than you think
Burnout is real, and building a business that depends on your constant output is not the goal.
You deserve a business that supports your life, not one that drains it. This episode is your permission slip to delegate, step back, and build a business that actually feels good to run.
And if you’re craving a room that energizes you and reminds you why you started… this is exactly why spaces like the Renaissance Women’s Summit exist.
✨ Feeling overwhelmed in your business? If you’re stuck in a loop of constant tasks, you’re operating, not owning. The solution isn’t more hours, it’s smarter systems and empowered delegation.
