In this episode, I'm trying something totally new - my first real-time interview! I sit down with Brenda Rigney, a fellow Gen X entrepreneur who's cracked the code on using the platform Skool to generate leads, build community, and create remarkable revenue streams.

Brenda spent 27 years climbing the corporate ladder with multimillion-dollar brands before making her midlife pivot to entrepreneurship. Now she's helping other seasoned women business owners transition from hustle culture to sustainable, aligned businesses that actually make money.

We dive deep into why she chose Skool over traditional platforms, how she's running innovative bundles and summits that are bringing in thousands of participants, and her strategy for creating affordable entry points while still building a profitable business. 

If you're curious about alternative ways to build community, tired of posting three times a day on Instagram with minimal results, or wondering how to create more spaciousness in your business while actually increasing revenue, this conversation is for you.

Self-proclaimed "world's biggest procrastinator" Kim Kiel gets real about how perfectionism and all-or-nothing thinking can paralyze your marketing.

She shares the exact mindset shifts and practical strategies that helped her build momentum and consistency, including how hosting monthly marketing moments boosts revenue, why accountability containers work, and how prompts and formulas can spark creativity instead of stifling it.

If you're tired of hearing from the same gurus shouting each other out and talking about the same things over and over again, this episode is for you. Kim shares why she's excited about Regeneration 2025, a free virtual summit that's bringing together diverse voices who are reimagining business as a force for good.

You'll discover why the online coaching world often feels like a pyramid scheme (spoiler: it's not just you), and how events like this summit are creating something more regenerative, collaborative, and human. Kim talks about her experience with the Prosper Network and why this community feels so different from the typical online business echo chamber.

She introduces you to some of the incredible speakers you'll hear from, including Tina Wells (the millennial whisperer), Sam Horn (communication expert who's worked with NASA and National Geographic), and Amina AlTai (who teaches career, body, and mind balance after her own burnout journey).

This isn't about celebrity or sameness - it's about perspective, generosity, and expansion. If you're craving new ways of doing business that emphasize cooperation over competition and circulation over hoarding, you'll want to hear about this summit happening November 17-19.

If you've been watching others with less experience get more attention while you undervalue your expertise, this episode reveals why you're probably more ready than you think. 

Kim shares how every high-earning consultant she's worked with felt unprepared but succeeded anyway, plus real client stories of transformation when they finally owned their worth. 

Discover:

- Why high-ticket isn't about charging more (it's about creating more value),

- The exact positioning shifts that help you become the go-to expert in your niche

After seven years in business and 165 episodes, I'm retiring my signature program, The Joy of Copy Club. This past year felt heavy. I lost my spark. I even applied for a job (spoiler: didn't get it). But the universe had other plans. New clients reached out. Podcast downloads doubled. My newsletter is growing like never before.

I realized something big: The Joy of Copy Club evolved into something far beyond copy. The real magic was watching women discover themselves, unearth their voice, and transform how they show up in business. It was never just about the copy. It was always about strategy, leadership, and selling with confidence.

In this episode, I'm announcing a new incubator and mentorship experience called Pivot to Premium. I built my business selling premium services to premium clients. I never had a $49 course or $97 membership. Instead, I made consistent, sustainable income through high-value, high-trust relationships with clients willing to pay for transformation.

The market is different now. Buyers are more discerning. They don't want low-ticket quick fixes or endless freebies. They're seeking mastery and results. When trust is low, people turn to their communities for reliable referrals. This is your opportunity to become the go-to choice.

I'm sharing what's inside Pivot to Premium and why now is the ideal time to elevate your offers, command the fees you deserve, and reclaim the spaciousness and ease you've been craving in your business.

In this episode, Kim invites you to her brand-new live workshop, Master Your High-Ticket Message: How to Attract and Win Premium Clients. 

If you've been struggling to raise your rates, exhausting yourself with lower-ticket offers, or wondering how to position yourself as THE go-to expert, this episode is your wake-up call. 

Kim walks you through exactly what she'll in the workshop—from premium buyer psychology to crafting your own Premium Positioning Statement (aka your Big Frigging Deal statement).

Plus, Kim shares details about the personalized mini audit you'll get when you join (typically $150, but included FREE with your ticket).

Selling high-ticket isn't about charging more. It's about creating more space, sustainability, and profitability in your business so you can work with fewer, better-fit clients.

High ticket buyers are still buying — even in a softer economy.

In this episode of the Ill Communication Podcast, I’m busting 7 of the biggest myths I hear from Gen X business owners about premium offers.

If you’ve been hesitating to raise your rates or create that next-level offer, let this episode be your green light.

Leading up to my milestone birthday, everyone kept asking: How are you going to celebrate? Big party? Big event? Honestly, I didn’t want to do any of that—and for the first time, I felt totally okay about it. 

I gave myself permission to celebrate exactly how I wanted, which is how I ended up fully embracing the We Do Not Care Club.

In this episode, I’m sharing the Business + Marketing Edition of the We Do Not Care Club, where I reveal the 10 things I’m officially no longer available for as I step into my fifties.

This summer, I’m bringing back some of my most-loved podcast episodes, and today’s is a gem.

You’ve likely heard of the 9-word email, a magical little formula created by marketing legend Dean Jackson. It’s short, punchy, and still incredibly effective for re-engaging leads and booking new clients in 2025.

But here’s the problem. Most people are using it wrong.

A recent newsletter from a well-known marketing expert reminded me how often the most important parts of this strategy get left out. So I’m diving back into this episode to give you the full picture. What to do, what to avoid, and how I’ve personally used this email to book $10K in client work.

You’ll learn:

• What the 9-word email actually is (and why it works)
• The right time and audience to send it to
• Mistakes that make you look out of touch (and how to avoid them)
• Real-life examples you can swipe and test today

Whether you’re reviving cold leads or teasing a new offer, this email strategy can be gold when used properly.

If you tuned in to last week's episode, you know we discussed the importance of being bold and clear in your messaging and marketing. 

Right now, one of the biggest trends is having a clear point of view. 

Nothing helps you stand out more in your marketing than knowing how to articulate what you do and whom you help in a clear and compelling way. 

Some call this the elevator pitch, some call it a power statement, but I like to call it a BFD or Big Frigging Deal statement. 

If you want to attract your ideal buyers in the remainder of the year, you need to be bold and compelling with your BFD statement. 

Listen in for the full details on how to create yours.
