  12. Dolla Dolla Billz, Y’all

    Hey folks. Let’s talk about dollars. The impact of dollars. The cost of dollars. The cost of things. As I’ve had an increased ratio of these kinds of conversations in the last year (and let me tell you, I was already annoyingly interested in these kinds of conversations before I started this...

  13. SNAPping into Place

    Note from Andrea: Even though there are just a couple resources listed in this episode, I don't feel right about gatekeeping it, so here's a not-so-fun bonus Between the Interviews episode for all. Hey folks. So listen. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how the mission & purpose of this...

  14. Capitalism for Good Goes Green

    Being new, trying to figure things out, being the least smart person in the room doesn’t always feel good to me personally, but is the best way for me to feel like I’m always learning and growing. I’ve been thinking a lot about the conversation with Tiera Barber and her point about opening up a...

  15. When Anti-Procrastination Doesn’t Work

    Hi folks. So listen. I am a pretty good compartmentalizer mixed with a pretty good anti-procrastinator who loves a good routine. It’s what keeps me sane when life gets chaotic. Part of that routine is completing as much as possible at the moment. I’m a wash-the-dishes-as-you-go kind of woman...

  16. Ben Higgins…was on The Bachelorette?? (living under a rock edition)

    Listen. I’m not the biggest TV watcher out there. In fact, I didn’t buy my first TV until I was in 30s and I gave it away within a year of purchasing it. I’m even more out of the loop when it comes to reality TV. So it’s safe to say that I’m a bit under a rock when it comes to pop culture related...

  17. Duos, Partners, Buddies, Yin & Yang…People x2?

    I’m drilling down more from people into the value of having a person, partner, duo, buddy, a yin to your yang. Someone to lean on and be in the trenches with you. Because sometimes you just need to not be alone. Nothing happens in a vacuum. Even those of us that individual sports & lone wolfs out...

  18. 25% Check In

    Bittersweet Paradox This is the more personal introverted side of the house that involves some introspection about how we’re all humans behind all this. We all have our own shit and these times in life that really threaten to derail everything that we do and all that we’ve worked for and…

  19. Asking for Feedback

    If you're anything like me, it's not always easy or comfortable to ask for feedback because that means that you're opening yourself up to looking head on at what you worked so hard to do your best at. Call it being a perfectionist. Call it trying too hard. Call it a disconnect with reality. Call…

    more
  20. What is a "break" really?

    This week is audio only as I attempt to learn how to take a break. And by that I mean, I tried to actually take a break, but really just fell down some more rabbit holes to build out what I want the future to be. And then took some action. So really, I suppose, it wasn't a break at all. The break...

  21. Communities of Businesses Supporting Businesses

    This concept of businesses supporting businesses is proof that we're stronger together. As I've neared the 1 quarter mark of the completion of the interview goal, I've been trying to find a concise way to put into words the proof that communities of businesses are stronger together. I've got a...

  22. Technically Complex

    This week's Thought I Can't Get Out of My Brain: Leveraging the tools we have for good. Much like the word "capitalism" or "business" or "money" can be a turnoff for some, I've found that "technology" and "AI" and "social media" or "the internet" can be a turn off as well. I get it. I also have...

  23. Shifting Thought Process

    THANK YOU for your interest, support, and interaction as we shine a spotlight on those that are using their business to make a positive impact on their internal & external communities. Please, spread the word. Share the love. And support these fine folks that are pushing the envelop in the…

    more
  24. Reverse, Reverse

    I did it. I finally finished Phil Knight's memoir, Shoe Dog, about his experience creating Nike. It's not uncommon for me to take several months (or years for some books, if I'm being honest) to finish a book. I'm often flipping between 5 or so all from pretty different genres. Some I fly through...

  25. The Power of the People

    It’s been so interesting to listen to all these leaders speak. I just wrapped up Interview #17 about a half hour ago. And much like the 16 before her, Sami talks about the people that made a profound impact on her and her ability to be where she is now. The people that keep a company running on a...

  26. Logistics Scmigistics

    This week is another true “behind the scenes” and “what goes on while I attempt to make, publish, and improve this project.” I’ve learned SO much recently. Have I mentioned that I am not naturally gifted in the graphic design, artistic, visual field? This is newwwwwww territory to me and I’m well...

  27. Curating Community

    This is my reflection after Kate. There are so many things that stuck out to me. Namely: This idea of taking control over your life and doing things your own way to aid in happiness. It was an interesting perspective when talking to her that she had this take on curating your community. She said...

  28. Set the Foundation

    Episode 3 - Video version first aired on 01/27/25 The interview series can be found on all major podcast platforms by searching "Capitalism for Good" or through the links below. Purchase the full Collection of Between the Interviews episodes (includes video option) here or at...

  29. Bittersweet Paradox Launch

    In a lot of ways, Bittersweet Paradox was the first creative project idea that came to mind. It was a time when it really dawned on me in real time that I was in the middle of a tough situation much like we’ve all experienced in our own way. It wasn’t just a momentary time of pain like when you...

  30. FAQs (the behind the scenes version)

    I know, I know, I know. This is a deep dive all about FAQs. Outrageous, right? Well, so am I. So here we are going deep on why I prioritized making a FAQ page, why I posted about it on social media, and how it fits into the greater story. Long story short: I chose to put some of the Capitalism…

  31. Would You Do Severance?

    In the last couple weeks, I’ve really been extra reflective with this project as I’ve gone through the first 10 interview transcripts to find topics for the 10% check in and then do some internal evaluation with where the project stands. You know, what I like, what I want to change, re-evaluating...

  32. 10% Check in! (10 interviews down & 90 to go)

    10 down & 90 to go! First 10 interviews: Shannon Masterson - OT, Nonprofit Founder, Accessibility & Inclusion Champion Andrew Bolton - CEO of Tech Rescue Greg Moore - President of Charlie Hustle Veronica Hernandez - GM of Modesto Nuts Emma Grose - Co-Founder & CEO of MABLE & HAY! Straws Keith...

  33. Overflowing with Gratitude Today

    Today is a rare day where I don’t have a lot of words to say aside from saying “thank you” over and over again. Taking last week’s theme of turning embarrassment into excitement by capitalizing on the less polished side of life and of myself, here’s a true behind the scenes look at what I’m...

  34. We're Getting Over the Embarrassment Over Here!

    This episode is just what the title suggests: I'm working on turning my embarrassment into excitement. The story about me being such a terrible french horn player that I ultimately quit primarily because I refused to practice. Even worse, I refused to practice regularly because I was so…

    more
  35. Lessons Learned

    I’ve learned so much since this project began to take shape about a year ago (but really, what is time?). This week’s recent lessons have been in some practical items like adding a frame around a video and now how to make that frame look a little more visually appealing (easter egg: it’ll likely...

  36. What's New?

    The goal is still the same: Interview 100 business leaders making a positive impact on their internal and external communities. This is not meant to be a definitive black & white guide to which companies to support, but an opportunity to explore what’s going on out there and for us all to learn...

  37. Women in Leadership

    If you thought that perhaps I might not bring up women in leadership roles again throughout this project, unfortunately, you were sorely incorrect. As a woman myself, it’s something that I can’t unsee. I’ve been working on write ups, reflections, and social media posts for the interview with...

  38. Why So Many Shout Outs

    Veronica Hernandez (GM of the Modesto Nuts) said it best when she was talking about “non-needy” conversations. Even her decision to say yes to me interviewing her could be considered her agreeing to a “non-needy” conversation that was based around simply being curious, learning, and listening. So...

  39. Lucky #3 Reflection

    So. Many. Themes. Already. It’s all about the people that surround you. Cheering them on. Learning from them. Trusting them to use their strengths to be successful. Continue to go back to your values, the mission, and what you want your legacy to be. Shannon talked about this when she said, “Find...

  40. Making Mistakes

    Mistakes. We all make them. They almost always suck. We try not to, but they happen. The key is how we handle them. It’s tough to admit when we’ve made a mistake, but the impact on our reputation is difficult to outrun. The way we address mistakes tells our internal and external circles both…

  41. Rethinking Creative (Cash) Flow

    Here’s my caveat to my thoughts & reflections for this week: remember, I’m new to this game. I’ve been thinking a lot about the way in which our society has set up channels to fund creative endeavors. The more I think about it, the weirder it seems to me that we have this large powerful revenue...

  42. Making Decisions

    We all make decisions differently. I can be incredibly analytical and thrive when I’m in a position to look at the entire road map, assess the options by gathering as much information as is reasonable, identifying the destination as well as the potential risks & associated resources, and then...

  43. Hometown Pride

    I was just visiting KCMO, which I called home many years ago, and found myself bursting with nostalgic pride while being there and showing my friends and loved ones around town. In this episode, I give examples of experiences I’ve had while shopping local and also how “shopping local” has…

    more
  44. Recycle Bin

    What started as something in the zeitgeist of my childhood became a frequent topic of discussion and then I tool that I’ve since used many times to understand other people in a different way. On the surface, the recycle bin analogy distinguishes between those who don’t believe that all recycling…

    more
  45. Slow Burn

    In the words of Kacey Musgraves, “I’m alright with a slow burn.” I moved at turbo speed for so much of my life figuratively and literally running as fast as I could. For many years of my late teens and early twenties, I lived with the goal of “never saying no to anything unless I could think of 3...

  46. Return on Investment

    Today, I do some back of the napkin math to examine the cost of turnover vs. investing into employees and when it might make sense to choose one over the other. We use the lens of different financial business models and how they may be guided by flashy buzzwords and arbitrary deadlines expedited…

    more
  47. What is Capitalism for Good?

    Business Karma. This idea that if we choose the greater good or we choose to prioritize people when making business decisions, that it will often be a benefit back to us. It may take some time. It may be a delayed benefit, but sometimes that benefit might even come back multiplied. While the…

    more
  48. Going Gray

    One thing that I’m cognizant of is that by putting the word “good” in the name of this project, it may seem to imply that there’s either a “good” or a “bad” way to make and spend money. It could seem like there’s a judgement of a right vs. a wrong way. Especially as a woman with some strong views...

  49. Why does any of this matter?

    Using one of my favorite analogies about choosing which bin to put your trash in might seem like you just have two choices in front of you - trash vs. recycling bin - but perhaps the world is less black & white and really you have many more options than just the two right in front of you.…

    more
  50. Making Sense of Nonprofit Nonsense

    When talking about the Capitalism for Good project, I often get recommendations for nonprofit organizations, companies with give-back programs & associated foundations, and community-based companies focused on serving a specific underserved population. These are great! I’ll be highlighting some…
