    Great info + applicable advice
    Such a great resource!!!!!
  • Ericka Sylvester
    Best advice ever!
    Steph is so on point with all of her advice! It was through this podcast that I ended up signing up for her Messy Middle Mastermind!
  • Frodychick
    I love Steph’s approach
    Steph is a sales expert and she gets down to brass tacks with practical actionable advice. No fluff or over-complication here. Just real world tips that actually work.
  • serenegreenflowers
    I take notes on every episode
    I discovered Steph’s podcast in November 2023 after seeing an ad for her Year on the Wall program (which is also worth checking out, btw). As a relatively new side hustler with big dreams, I’ve already benefitted from her counsel on business and sales, and her episodes on mindset shifts are invaluable. I keep a notebook to jot down “aha” moments & reference it regularly. Thank you for your commitment to sharing your wisdom, Steph. This solopreneur is deeply grateful.

    Just can’t get enough
    I eagerly await each new episode of the Courage & Clarity podcast, and am always a little sad when it ends and I have to wait a whole week for the next one. Steph teaches sales and business stuff in such a relatable and digestible way, and I always feel inspired to keep at it with each episode. I share this podcast even with my non-entrepreneur friends, cuz it’s THAT good.

    Phenomenal Conversations
    I stumbled across this podcast accidentally and do I feel grateful for tuning in. I listened to one episode and I knew it was the “IT” podcast for someone on their entrepreneurial journey. Thank you, Steph.

    Why I hate sales and marketing
    Preach Steph! I LOVED THIS EPISODE! Such great stuff and totally on point!
  • AmeliaBl
    Steph got me up and running in business
    Love this podcast. Episodes are always helpful. Can’t go wrong with Steph - she’s the one who helped get my business going!
  • EmileeKF
    Learned so much!

    Wisdom that puts you on track
    Every time I listen to this podcast I feel empowered and ready to tackle my business journey. Steph has great leaders on the podcast and interviews them very well. This is a calming and uplifting space. Thanks Steph!
  • This is me! :D
    Love this podcast!
    I love this podcast and enjoy turning it on as I start my day. I am thankful for the wisdom and insight Steph provides.
  • cara lynne
    limited perspectives
    I wish I could appreciate this show more, but the past several episodes have been letdowns for me. The topics are great, and I get excited to listen to each one. But then when she describes it in more detail, it’s not really what I expected? Not to say it won’t be helpful to others, but the specifics on the topics are just….too specific. Like the latest, How to Handle a Bad Day and Get Unstuck. Her perspective on it is that you overthink and overwork, and the solution is to stop working and take a break. But, I’m feeling stuck in the opposite way, especially during quarantine - I can’t get STARTED working and I feel stuck and continually have these unproductive bad days. I literally do nothing but sit and stare at the wall. So how does taking a break really help me? There have been many episodes that end up like this for me. I wish the advice was a little broader to apply to many situations, then go into some possible perspectives to help more specifically.
  • Caribbeangirlsf1234
    So great!
    I recently started listening to the Courage and Clarity podcast and I'm obsessed! It's so entertaining while being so insightful. I love listening to Steph and hearing her advice. Highly recommend!
  • Mommy’s on a Call Podcast
    Super useful and informative
    I have been listening to the C&C podcast now for almost 1.5 years and I can’t express how much I’ve learned from it! I even took Steph’s course because the way she teaches is so easy to follow and implement. I’ve listened to some episodes twice! Definitely one to add to your podcast list!!!
  • Brooke Craven

    Steph knows her stuff and wants her listeners to succeed
    If you are a new entrepreneur or a longtime entrepreneur, this podcast is for you! Every episode has actionable strategies to build your business and your community. Steph is a wonderful teacher and I love that she covers not only the business stuff, but the mind stuff as well. Love this podcast and everything Steph produces! She truly cares about her listeners and wants them to succeed!
  • Jane Bruner
    Steph is the real deal!
    I absolutely love this show. In a sea of “entrepreneur coaches” who seem to be offering big promises and delivering stale content, Steph is a breath of fresh air. She is authentic and gives actionable advice, I always look forward to listening in!
  • Christine McAlister
    SO SO good--real & actionable strategies!
    I LOVE what Steph is doing here--teaching and talking about the actual simple strategies required to start and grow your own business!
  • Carrie from ArtistStrong.com
    So good you listen twice
    Steph's content here is so good I often listen to it twice. It's not only helping me shift my mindset from an overachiever who thinks she has to work harder to win, she also provides winning strategies to help me grow my business.
  • Ktebch
    Ad for fizzle
    This podcast seems like it’s a long commercial for fizzle.
  • KarlaTamay
    No episode has disappointed yet!
    I've been listening to the Courage & Clarity Podcast for a while now, and it has given me so many practical tips and inspiration to create a business of my own. I love Steph’s way of interviewing and how she breaks down and summarizes the key takeaways every time. Thank you for all the value and inspiration!
  • RockCandy3418
    Super Star Steph
    I’ve been catching up on my podcasts, and, I have to tell you the “Backstage Pass” episode shook the rust from the cogs stuck on ideas I have brewing in my head and heart! Steph, thanks so much for the quality value you add in and out of the podcast! Brenna Pakes Jewelry Navigator
  • Notamit
    A perfect compliment to a startup podcast stack.
    The perfect mix of practical how to's and inspirational conversation.
  • Rebeccadahls
    Must listen for the timid entrepeneur
    So much to love! Through her unique format of first discussing the journey (often of her interviewee) which is motivating and encouraging (because everyone successful has needed lots of courage) and then practical steps and business wisdom (oh, Bizdom - a great series in this podcast!) to move forward.
  • braveandhopeful
    Fantastic!
    My entire adult life people have been telling me I talk a lot and I talk really fast. It always made me a little self-conscious. Stephanie Crowder talks fast and she talks a lot, and I love Step! This podcast is addictive and it’s given me the permission to love myself exactly as I am. Plus, each episode is so juicy — filled with meaty content. 👍🏻👍🏻
  • Andrea Rhoades
    Great guests and actionable items for online creatives
    Steph's show is one of my top podcasts to listen to as I grow my businesses. Her guests are extremely helpful and she hosts the show with such passion. You can really tell she's trying to help her audience grow. Defintely search through the archives on this one if you are just starting out!

    Steph is absolutely incredible. She speaks the truth and taps into real life issues that resonate with so many of us trying to start our businesses. She not only inspires but, she gives us action steps to take. I have been binge listening to this podcast and love,love, everything about it!!
  • Mallika Malhotra | mikifoto
    One of the BEST!
    I am a pod cast junkie and have been listening to business podcasts for years. Just when I thought they were all sounding the same, I discovered Steph and the Courage & Clarity podcast. She has an amazing way of sharing important pieces of information and insight that has my mind popping with a-ha moments and clarity. She is smart, professional, engaging and fun to listen to. I found myself binge listening and wanting to pull over to the side of the road to jot down new ideas and spring into action. Keep up the great work - I will be listening!
  • KayePutnam
    Steph is a class act!
    I’m so honored to have been interviewed by Steph on the show. She asks amazing questions, and the production value is excellent. Keep rocking, Steph!!

    Inspiration with Actionable Strategies
    Love listening to this podcast anytime I can squeeze it into my day - listening to these real life experiences constantly inspires me to reach higher and work smarter in building my own business. Steph’s enthusiasm is infectious, I can’t help but feel her positive + motivating energy just beaming through my headphones. I really appreciate that the strategies and advice offered are specific and actionable for ANY business not just specific to one industry or niche. Can’t wait to go back and binge all the episodes I missed!
  • Lemon and the Sea
    Love the Fresh Format
    I love this podcast because it looks at both sides of life and business - the hard things and the strategy. It’s a great balance and the guests are amazing. Steph has fostered a great community.
  • Eyakana
    Never disappointed
    I’ve really been enjoying the Courage and Clarity podcast. I’d listened to several podcasts, but never really followed any closely. I was listening to a Fizzle episode and heard yours advertised and the name of it struck me. Two things I knew I needed for my next steps were courage and clarity. I have not been disappointed. Thank you for your work. I’ll definitely continue to be a listener.
  • SaraLiz_Jax
    My favorite podcast!!
    I discovered Courage & Clarity a couple of months ago and it quickly became my favorite podcast. I recently started my own coaching business and have found each and every episode to be filled with the exact insight and advice I need at the time. Host Steph Crowder is fantastic; she is incredibly talented, authentic, intuitive and feels like someone you just want to be friends with. Her guests are interesting and inspiring. I look forward to new episodes every Monday and recommend it to everyone I know.
  • sstiavetti
    Useful, entertaining
    Steph Crowder is super positive and bubbly (and hyper caffeinated, LOL) so she's fun to listen to. Lots of practice tips here. The interviews are good, but the solo shows are where she really shines.
  • msfitz916
    Enthusiastic and Helpful!
    Thank you Steph (and Chase and Corbett),for another helpful tool for us Indie warriors. Steph has a unique voice in this space and her interviews bring out such good information. I am grateful that you work as hard as you do to make things a little easier for the rest of us! Margaret

    Conversations women entrepreneurs need to have and hear
    I am so happy to hear the stories, struggles, and successes of women entrepreneurs! I have been amazed by how honest and vulnerable the conversations have been. These are conversations I think women need to have and hear, so thank you!
  • MY GO TO PODCAST!
    YES!
    I am a member of Fizzle and a big fan of Steph's because she is a powerhouse of energy and enthusiasm and is razor smart. I find that a lot of business advice is geared to men. This show, however, asks the questions that most women are afraid to ask-- how do I do it step by step? Steph asks the questions that I need to know, asking about internal shifts and decisions, and summarizing key points at the end. Listening to this show makes me feel that succeeding as a female entrepreneur really is possible and that courage and clarity are not traits you're born with, but rather traits that you develop as you forge ahead toward your dreams.
  • Jojo8123
    Can’t Wait for Mondays
    I always look forward to Monday because of the C&C Show. Steph is real and inspirational. I resonate with the stories of many of her guests and I’ve put their wisdom into practice in my own life and business.
  • late texter
    Can’t miss an episode!
    Steph’s Courage+Clarity podcast is a must-listen for me. It’s consistently been a great treat for me to listen to both her interviews and her solo casts, as she always brings insightful conversation to the table.
  • Crystalesco123
    LOVE THIS PODCAST!!!
    Steph Crowder is seriously amazing! I just love all of her amazing messages and how well spoken she is. Her topics are so on point and I always learn so much from her and the many other women she interviews on this show. Thank you for all you do Steph!!! ~Crystal Escobar
  • Skdette
    ACTIONABLE and RELATABLE wisdom!! <3 <3
    Courage + Clarity isn't just another inspirational/foo foo/entrepreneurship podcast. Steph interviews super rad ladies who have really gone for it and learned the tough and actionable lessons. I love listening to these interviews because I feel like I can actually relate to the struggles and triumphs they discuss! Each episode, I leave with with a little more inspiration and an actionable piece of wisdom to apply to my businesses. Also, if you haven't downloaded the Clarity Jumpstart Guide on her website, DO IT! I got so much value from it! Thanks, Steph, for always putting it all out there to help lift us up in our lives and businesses :)

    Strikes the Right Balance
    Being a professional designer for 20 years and starting my own business, I'm finding Steph's (and the Fizzle crew at large) interviews and observations both motivating AND practical. Not an easy balance to strike. Refreshingly candid and vulnerable as well. Go get 'em Steph. ÷ ]
  • Ctrackright
    Steph Crowder Nails It!
    Steph Crowder, (in case you missed this being mentioned by all the other reviewers) is one leg of the tripod of awesomeness that is Fizzle (and the Fizzle Show, which also rocks, b/t/w); but on C&C, she comes into her own. Not only does Steph line up great guests and get them to open up to a degree that makes you feel like you're sitting on the porch together with a tall glass of sweet tea (can you tell I've become a Southerner??); she also mines tons of actionable tips and usable gems from her talented guests - all for the good of her listeners. If you're a solopreneur/entrepreneur/woman/human/anyone with ears - you should be listening to Courage and Clarity. It's a gem.
  • christine rosas
    Wow! So real and doable!
    I love the practical advice and the vulnerability factor. I have so many moments of breathing a sigh of relief that I'm not alone.
  • Agassi17
    Overrated
    I first heard about Steph's podcast on the Fizzle Show during the episode where they talk about how to host a great podcast interview, and in a rather self-aggrandizing way, they seemed to hold Courage & Clarity up as the gold standard of great interviewing. However, after listening to a couple episodes, I found Steph's conversations to be rather superficial, lacking the depth I get on other podcasts. Also, I agree with the other interviewer about the vocal tics of saying "right" all the time.
  • Marianne Sundquist
    I can't stop listening...
    I LOVE the format, I love that Steph is so intentional about recapping key takeaways. Her voice is seriously the female version of Ryan Seacrest ❤️. I love that she leaves the space for guests to tell their story in the courage episodes. Hearing the nitty gritty about motivation.. these are the stories I need to hear! These stories are so powerful! So when I hear how other women owned businesses were born out of heartache, determination, passion, it's easier to envision what is possible for me, and no matter where I am on this journey, I am living into my full potential the second I start consistently taking brave and instinctual action. Thank you for making this Steph Crowder!!

    Growing with us as a leading learner
    This show is great because if you are just starting out Steph has a true leading learner approach. Thanks for all the great episodes.
  • Monicka Clio Sakki
    A podcast true to its name: you get both courage AND clarity!
    Discovered this through the Fizzle Show, and wow! Steph needed that extra space! I love the inspiration/instruction combo, the casual but getting to the core style, without too much chit chat. The recaps at the end are crafted beautifully and a liner’s heaven, especially when on the run! The content is inspirational, helpful and relatable and I get TONS of value from every single episode. Thank you for creating this!!
  • CI Trixie
    Courage and Clarity is crystal clear(ly) one of my new faves!
