About the show

I'm Becky Hoschek, and this is the podcast for moms called to business as creative entrepreneurs and coaches. As a life and business coach, creative entrepreneur (design, copywriting, marketing and photography) and mom of 3, I believe mindset is your greatest asset in both motherhood and business. I help you leverage your faith and your beliefs to get out of your own way so that you simplify, focus and build a business that serves you, your family and your clients well – a business run with integrity that creates both income and impact. Around here, we go beyond the surface and dive deep into what matters most. We talk about mindset, faith, motherhood, money, marketing, messaging and more. So much of why you were called to business is because of who you're becoming along the way. As your coach, my job is to help you grow your business. My mission is to help you grow as a person. This is BEYOND.

Ep. 314: The Power of a Pause and Honoring Your Capacity (An Update)

After some intentional down time this summer, it's time for an update on what my 3-month podcast sabbatical looked like and what's next in the world of BEYOND. There is so much power in taking a pause – sometimes they're planned out well in advance, and sometimes they're the curveballs that change up the plan . In this episode, I'm reconnecting to share the unexpected parts of my year, what that's looked like for myself, my family and my business. While a lot of uncertainty remains and I continue to pray for clarity and discernment, I'm sharing with you what I DO know for sure in this season of rest, reflection and reset. Some of the highlights inside BEYOND Ep. 314: • How building a SIMPLIFIED business makes it (relatively) smooth to hit pause when life happens • Overcoming the lie that a break, pause or sabbatical means a lack of productivity (or that it will prevent growth down the road) • The beauty of letting yourself be where you are, and honoring your capacity in this season • What's ahead for BEYOND, what I have clarity on (and what I don't!) • How seasons of waiting are not to be rushed (as uncomfortable as it is) If you're in a season where you need support as a mom called to business, private 1:1 coaching with me is like having a business therapist, marketing strategist, messaging mastermind and mom mentor, all-in-one. To apply, visit beckyhoschek.com/apply and answer a few questions about your business, your goals and the season you're in. If I feel confident I can help you move toward where you want to be going, I'll invite you to join me on a Next Step call where we'll get all of your questions answered so that you can decide if working together is your next right thing.

Are the promises you make to yourself some of the first ones you break? We value trust in our relationships, but what happens when we don't trust ourself? In this episode we dive into what it looks like to trust YOU, how it contributes to your self-confidence, how we generate self-doubt, and why it all matters when you're wanting to show up as the best version of you. When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.

Ep. 312: 5 Unexpected Plot Twists That Changed My Business for Good

In John Lennon's famous song Beautiful Boy, he sings the words, "Life is what happens to you While you're busy making other plans." I feel similarly when I look back and think about the trajectory of my business journey – there have been so many plot twists that happened while I was making other plans. When your reality looks different than you thought it would, it can be really hard! It can feel extremely uncomfortable. And the thoughts and feelings we have about what life and business look like compared to what we THINK it should look like can make it really tough to TRUST THE PROCESS. And so, I thought I'd share with you some of the major plot twists that have happened through the course of my years as a creative entrepreneur and coach, and why I'm so glad they did. On this episode, you'll learn: Why I quit a promising new job without a backup plan How my business has looked different in different seasons of motherhood Two (expensive) lessons in integrity from business investments that were not what I expected The unplanned shift that had me thinking, "I didn't see that coming" The current plot twist currently unfolding through this podcast and why I'm so excited to share it with you My I believe it's so important to have goals and dreams, but to also be willing to hold them loosely When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY. High-profitability paired with high quality of life is the mission of my business, and it's the focus of my partnership with clients inside SIMPLIFIED.SIMPLIFIED is my high-touch, white-glove coaching and consulting intensive for creatives and coaches, and applications are currently closed.

Ep. 311: Two Truths and a Lie: a Tool to Gain Clarity and Get Unstuck

The truth: we all believe lies. They impact every area of our lives: from our relationship with ourselves to our marriage relationships and friendships, parenting, business, faith, dreams and goals. The problem is that these lies are hard to see for ourselves. This is true especially if we've been believing them for a long time. And if we can't see them, we have little hope of getting rid of them. In this episode I'm sharing Two Truths and a Lie - a tool I've created to help you uncover the lies you're believing so that you can live BEYOND them. You'll learn: • How lies are the root of so much unnecessary pain and suffering • Why we believe things that aren't true • The questions to ask to uncover a lie • How to replace a lie with truth, for good When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.

Ep. 309: How Your Thoughts Run Your Life

Proverbs 4:23 NCV says "Be careful what you think because your thoughts run your life." At an intellectual level, we understand the importance of our thinking and the power of our mindset, but at a personal, soul level, we're not so sure. In the middle of the everyday, how does this work? How do your thoughts run your life? And what can you do about it? In this episode we're breaking down two key pieces of truth anchored inside this passage. We were created with the agency, the free will to shape our thinking, and it may be the greatest gift we have. Understanding this gift and our God-given ability to steward our thought life is key to changing our lives, to feeling better and living more fully. Today's episode is an encore presentation of one of Beyond Happy's most downloaded episodes. It originally aired in early 2021. In this episode, you'll learn: • The relationship between what you think, how you feel and what you do • Why your thoughts are so powerful • The essential piece we often leave out when trying to make change in our lives • Why the freedom to co-create your life may be your greatest gift • What it looks like to steward your thoughts When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.

Ep. 308: 5 Reasons You're Busy but not Productive

Do you ever get to the end of a busy day or week and feel like you got nothing done? How is that even possible? For moms building businesses and careers while raising families, the struggle is real. We constantly feel behind, even when it seems like we're always on the go. The reality for many of us is that we are really busy without being very productive. We tend to think that these terms are synonymous, but they are not. Being busy does not equal being productive. On this episode we're talking about the differences between being busy and being productive and five reasons you may feel busy but not be productive. When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.

Ep. 307: A Conversation With 75-Year-Old You

Do you ever fear that you're missing out on your own life? Maybe you imagine that near the end of your days, you'll look back and realize you were focused on all the wrong things. Maybe you worry that your priorities are off, you're too busy or rushed and are just going through the motions. For you, maybe it's a fear that pursuing a career or growing a business means you'll miss out on your kids' childhoods. Missing out on what matters most is a real fear - one that many working moms share with me. They just want to do the right thing. They want to live full, purpose-driven and productive lives that they are also present for. But sometimes, that feels really hard to achieve. In this episode of Beyond Happy, I'm sharing a powerful tool that uses your imagination to tap into the powerful perspective of another person - 75-year-old YOU. With 5 prompts to guide you through the exercise, you'll access this older, more experienced version of you to better understand where you are in your life right now with greater wisdom, compassion and grace. When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.

Ep. 306: 5 Habits That Can Fix 80% of Your Problems

Micro changes, macro results. That's how I think about habits. They don't have to be huge, overwhelming and time-consuming in order to be life-changing. Often, the little things, done consistently, are the big things. This is because they build on each other – they compound. Today we're talking about life-changing habits. These are powerful rituals that either I have in place in my own life as a mom and entrepreneur, ones that have been really helpful and effective for my clients, or a combination of both. I named this episode 5 Habits that can fix 80% of your problems because I've found that these 5 have a compound effect – meaning, the benefit they bring to your days and to your life is so much greater than the time and energy they take to implement. On this episode, you'll learn about these powerful habits: • Create non-negotiable morning anchors • Get enough rest • Plan out your day ahead of time • Do the thing you want to do LEAST today, FIRST Surround yourself with people who help encourage and grow you When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.

Ep 305: Stop Saying You're Sorry for These 8 Things

Do you find yourself apologizing constantly? Saying you're sorry for something you've done and want to take responsibility for is one thing, but often, we are apologizing for things that don't actually require apologies. The problem? Over-apologizing can undermine your authority and competence, and it is a reflection of the relationship you have with yourself. In this episode, we're talking about why, especially as women, we tend to apologize when it's not necessary. We're talking about these specific situations where an apology just isn't helpful or useful: • Being human • Having boundaries • Saying no • Being vulnerable and sharing your heart • Being tired • Asking questions • Asking for what you need Having opinions and taking up space When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY.
