Trish Healy on She's Got Moxie

When today’s guest Trish Healy read Celia’s (the 12-year-old daughter she and her husband were fostering at the time) wish list and saw she most wanted a sleepover party, it was a life-changing moment. WonderTent Parties was born and now five years later, the business has expanded from sleepovers to events and experiences for both children and adults.

In this episode, Trish shares her struggle to acknowledge that she didn’t need to wear all the hats in her new business and how referrals hugely benefited her business growth in the early days. We discuss marketing tips for growing your new business and explain who you should listen to the most in business.

Listen to this episode to learn how to best reach your target audience as a new business, ways to incorporate philanthropy into your business model, and some of Trish’s favorite tips for managing bad days at work.

Dr. Heather Kunen – Co-Founder of Beam Street, the Walk-In drybar for Oral Wellness

April 29, 2020 | By Joy Chudacoff Leave a Comment

Dr. Heather Kunen on She's Got Moxie with Joy ChudacoffMy guest today, Dr. Heather Kunen, is a Co-Founder of Beam Street Dentistry.

Her infectious energy and can-do attitude is a breath of fresh air.

Dr. Heather Kunen started her career working as an orthodontist, but early on, she recognized that there was a market for just the top three most-requested dental services – clean teeth, white teeth, and straight teeth. Heather and her co-founders were able to create a business model that focused on offering ONLY these three services at an affordable price.

Beam Street is the first dental “studio” in New York City which makes going to the dentist easy, affordable, convenient, and quick. They took a page from the drybar and their motto is: Clean teeth. White teeth. Straight teeth. That’s it. They figured if it worked for hair, it might work for teeth too!

On today’s show, Dr. Kunen shares with us the challenges of starting a new business, why it is so important to understand what the consumers want, the actions steps she took to grow her business, her marketing tactics, and more.

Stephanie Scapa – WEYV CEO & Co-Founder. The All-in-One App for Music, Magazines & eBooks.

March 6, 2019 | By Joy Chudacoff Leave a Comment

Stephanie Scapa on She's Got Moxie with Joy Chudacoff

My guest today is Stephanie Scapa, CEO and co-founder of WEYV, a unique multimedia platform that offers music, magazines and eBooks all on one app.

After taking a family vacation to Florida and learning about a unique business model from her dad, Stephanie Scapa got excited. She saw how the streaming industry was “broken” and how she could fix it with her idea for WEYV.

On today’s episode, Stephanie dives into how WEYV works (how it solves a major digital streaming problem most people have), how she and her co-founder got this idea off the ground without experience creating apps, the questions she asks herself when making decisions, the work-life BLEND (no balance here!) and much more.

I firmly believe that work-life isn’t a balance. I think it has to be a blend. Especially as a woman, I can’t really divide my work and my life and make it balanced.” – Stephanie Scapa

Show Notes:

  • How WEYV easily allows you to listen, read and share content
  • What Stephanie learned after hiring someone to create the APP for her – it was time-consuming and costly – and how she re-framed and rebounded from this experience
  • WHY being able to PIVOT in business is essential
  • Why it’s important to “Know everything possible about your customer” when creating an App
  • The simple productivity app and system that Stephanie uses EVERY DAY personally and with her Team
  • How to get through the day when you feel like giving up
  • Interesting AHA about women in the workplace (this was surprising and also wonderful to hear!)
  • What questions Stephanie asks herself when MAKING DECISIONS
  • Why it’s a work-life BLEND rather than a work-life balance for Stephanie
  • And much, much more

There have been many points along our path where we’ve had to ask ourselves tough questions and make tough decisions.” – Stephanie Scapa
