Where You Water It
The grass isn't greener on the other side; it’s green where you water it.
Welcome to Where You Water It, the podcast for 1:1 service providers and work-from-home moms who are tired of blending in and ready to build a business that actually works for them.
I’m your host, Ellie Brown, a brand and web designer, and the founder of Ellie Brown Branding. For years, I struggled with the belief that I wasn't "good enough" and that everyone else was doing it better. I convinced myself I needed another course or someone else's process to finally be successful, only to realize that the "easy button" doesn't exist.
On this show, we’re stopping the comparison game and building our businesses out loud—sharing the real lessons, expensive mistakes, and honest moments that happen behind the scenes. Through solo episodes and guest interviews, we dive into the kind of growth that comes from showing up and paying attention to what actually matters.
We’ll dive into:
- Branding & Websites
- Business & Client Experience
- Mindset & Motherhood
- Behind the Scenes
You are already good enough to hit your goals on your own terms. It’s time to stop looking over the fence and start watering what you’ve planted.
Ready to grow? Let’s dive in.

Q4 of 2025 is going down in my business history books as one of the most expensive lessons I’ve learned to date. After a season of feeling like I wasn’t 'good enough' at sales, I almost walked away from my own business to work behind the scenes of other people's 'multi-million dollar' businesses. What I found when I pulled back the curtain wasn't what I expected.
In this episode, I’m sharing the story of trying out remote high-ticket sales and how spending thousands of dollars to find the 'easy button' finally led me to the truth: the grass isn't greener on the other side; it's green where you water it. This is the origin story of the Where You Water It podcast.
