Episode notes

Welcome back to the Dirty Heifers podcast for a "Heifer Huddle"—where things get real, raw, and a little bit chaotic. This week, the heifers are diving deep into the "wins and woes" of the soapmaking life.

In this episode:

  • The "Woes" of Creativity: Shauna opens up about her struggle with airbrushing bath bombs (and why she's currently selling "hot messes").
  • Business in the Dining Room: Jessie shares the reality of outgrowing her workspace and moving her entire shipping department into her house.
  • The End of an Era? Margaret talks about the emotional weight of packing away all her soap molds as she prepares for a big move.
  • Trend Talk: We discuss why we’re done chasing social media algorithms and which handmade trends need to be retired immediately (looking at you, bath bombs).
  • Word of the Week: Can you guess what "susurration" means? Hint: It’s not as "sus" as it sounds.

🚨 Join the Chat! We want to hear from you: What is one business trend you are officially DONE with? Are you a doomscroller or a "post and ghost" kind of maker? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
