Goalden Girls Podcast Episode #87 - Collaborations, Community-Building, Consciousness and Fine-Tuning Business and Life with Jenna Herbut

 Whether you’re a professional, parent, entrepreneur, or hey, even living that passive-income lifestyle, I’ll tell you the truth:

Every woman - honestly, almost every human - I talk to is facing some common experiences.

We’re working on prioritizing joy and self-care. 

We’re navigating success and cultivating resiliency in the face of adversity, challenges and failure.

We’re balancing personal, family, and professional responsibilities.

And we’re deeply yearning for community, connection, collaboration… and whether we all have the language or awareness yet or not…. We’re working towards being grounded, present, and conscious.

Today’s conversation touches all of those topics and so much more.. And I’m honoured to be joined by Jenna Herbut an entrepreneur, visionary, author and creative powerhouse to talk all about this… and so much more.

Let me tell you a little more about Jenna: 

Jenna has a passion for empowering artists and fostering conscious entrepreneurship and has made a significant impact through her ventures, including the Make It Show and Conscious Lab. 

As the founder of Make It Show, Jenna created a dynamic platform for emerging artists to showcase their work and connect with a diverse audience. What began as a small-scale event has evolved into one of Canada's largest and most influential craft and art markets. Chances are, you’ve been to one, sold your products at one, or been gifted gifts that came from the signature MAKEES at the Make it Show. 

Through Make It Show, Jenna has provided countless artists with a springboard to success, enabling them to turn their creative passions into thriving businesses.

Jenna's dedication to conscious entrepreneurship led her to establish Conscious Lab, an initiative that supports and nurtures socially responsible businesses in Vancouver. Conscious Lab serves as a hub for aspiring entrepreneurs, providing resources, mentorship, and a supportive community to create ventures that prioritize sustainability and positive social impact. Jenna's work through Conscious Lab has inspired a new generation of entrepreneurs to build businesses that make a difference in the world.

Beyond her entrepreneurial pursuits, Jenna is an accomplished author and sought-after speaker. Her book, "Make It Happen," offers practical guidance and strategies for artists looking to transform their creative passions into successful businesses. As a speaker, Jenna captivates audiences with her insights on creative entrepreneurship, conscious living, and the intersection of art and commerce.

Let me also say this:  

She’s also a dear friend, and a TRUE connector and collaborator in every sense of the word.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Jenna’s 10+ year journey of entrepreneurship 

  • How Jenna pivoted in the last few years as both an event host, and live event space owner – and what she learned in this that she wishes ALL entrepreneurs knew

  • What she wishes she knew before she became both a mom and entrepreneur

  • If it gets easier when you hit the success markers in business

  • Jenna’s philosophy that life actually gets HARDER sometimes when you’ve achieved your goals – this is a MUST listen

  • The difference between a visionary and a doer and why it’s different 

  • How unlearning what Jenna learned in business school and overcoming conditioning has been key to her success: and how it can help you define and reach success on YOUR terms too.

Oh, and by the way, if you’ve got little ears, there is an F=Bomb dropped later in the episode, so be mindful of who’s listening alongside you.
