APPLE PODCASTS | SPOTIFY
Katy Caldwell is back!
This time, as the first in-person guest on the Marketing Bar podcast! You heard all about her business and systems in Episode 8 (How to Build a Business You Love Without the Overwhelm). Or maybe you know her from Hustle Humbly where she co-hosts with Alissa to bring agents immeasurable value each week.
When she’s not putting my cookbooks in rainbow order, she and her husband / podcast producer Jay and their two kids love to travel.
Specifically to meet Marc & I on the beaches of Rosemary Beach, FL. This time they came to our house in Wisconsin where we showed them around our charming downtown, took boat rides around the lake, and traded stories over snacks and wine.
Prior to recording this episode, Katy and I put an “ask us anything” sticker on our IG stories, so you could ask us your burning questions about business, life, and social media. In this episode, Katy and I are answering your questions and chatting about TONS of other topics we get asked about.
