Let’s flip the script! In the FINAL episode of the Bombshell Business Podcast, I’m passing the mic to none other than my dear friend, Amy Hinote—founder of VRM Intel and a true powerhouse in the vacation rental industry. Amy wasn’t just the first person to hire me in this field; she’s been by my side since day one, and our friendship has deepened through life's ups and downs, beginning with the challenges of the pandemic. There is no one else I could imagine closing out this chapter with. We reminisce about the incredible journey of this podcast, from its early days through its growth and evolution over the past seven years. Together, we dive into pivotal moments, the lessons learned, and how personal trials like love, loss, and life’s curveballs have shaped us both. We also reflect on the power of women’s voices in business and how purpose-driven work fuels our paths. If you’ve been part of this ride, this episode is my heartfelt thanks as we look back on where we’ve been—and look ahead to what’s next. And yes, Amy will definitely be part of those future chapters! In this emotional and insightful final episode of the Bombshell Business Podcast, we discuss: The origins of the Bombshell Business Podcast, how it grew out of my passion for empowering women in business, and the milestones we've hit along the way. The shifts in women’s roles in business over the past few years, particularly during the rise of movements like Me Too, and how those changes have influenced the conversations we've had on the podcast. The personal hardships I’ve faced, including the loss of loved ones and major life changes, and how these experiences have shaped my approach to both business and life. Some of the most impactful episodes and what they meant to me personally. (I’ll note that I had not recorded the episode with my daughter at the time of this recording, and it is for sure now my favorite episode!) As we close this chapter, I talk about the future—what’s next for my work, how I plan to continue supporting women in business, and the exciting projects on the horizon. As we wrap up this final episode, I want to express my deepest gratitude to all of you who have been part of the Bombshell Business Podcast journey.

I’m thrilled to sit down with my dear friend and ultimate Bombshell, Narelle Hooker, in this powerful episode of the Bombshell Business Podcast. Narelle isn’t just the owner of McKenzie Stone & Tile in Eugene, Oregon—she’s a fearless (and fabulous) leader who truly embodies what it means to be bold and brave and confident. We can’t wrap up the podcast without introducing the woman who I ended up updating and shaping our “Bombshell” ideal customer profile around. (Seriously–her face is in my brand guide!) Narelle's journey with me began in 2020 when she enrolled in the inaugural Velvet Machete Leadership Academy. There, she learned to define her value, boost her confidence, and think and play bigger. Armed with this newfound clarity, she didn't stop at personal growth—she took it a step further by investing in her team. Together, we worked on employer branding, including a brand photoshoot, team training, and strategic planning with her leadership team, laying a strong foundation for her company’s continued success by investing in the people who can make or break the customer experience: her team. Needless to say, I quickly fell in love with Narelle’s heart, her business and her people. Our professional connection evolved into a close friendship that has shaped us both tremendously and I’m beyond excited to share her with you. In this episode, we explore her remarkable journey, from taking the reins of her family business to growing it into an industry-dominating force, all while staying true to her authentic self. Narelle opens up about how she’s built a strong, cohesive team, invested in cutting-edge technology, and expanded her business footprint. We also dive deep into the challenges of being a woman in construction, the critical role of personal and employer branding, and how Narelle has become a respected and influential voice in her field. This episode is an absolute must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration from a story of resilience, leadership, and empowerment! We Are Almost to Our Final Episode! As we near the end of this incredible journey with the Bombshell Business Podcast, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support. This episode with Narelle Hooker perfectly captures the kind of inspiring conversations we’ve shared over the years. If our discussions have resonated with you, I encourage you to stay connected through my website, amberhurdle.com, where you’ll find more resources and updates on my latest projects.

In this heartfelt episode of the Bombshell Business Podcast, I have the absolute pleasure of sitting down with someone incredibly special—my daughter, Brittany Hurdle Murphy. Together, we take a trip down memory lane, sharing the ups and downs of our unique mother-daughter journey. We dive deep into the lessons we've learned along the way and how these experiences have shaped our careers and lives. From Brittany’s early interest in real estate to her current role as a marketing director, this conversation is filled with honest reflections, plenty of laughter, and the kind of wisdom that only comes from living through both the trials and triumphs of life. Whether you're a mom, a daughter, or simply someone navigating the complexities of life and business, this episode is going to hit home for you. Key Highlights: Brittany shares her perspective on the challenges and blessings of being raised by a young, driven mom, and how those experiences have helped shape her into the resilient woman she is today. We discuss our individual journeys of personal development, touching on the importance of community, the necessity of setting boundaries, and the need to validate emotions. Brittany talks about her path from a little girl fascinated by real estate to becoming an award-winning real estate professional, blending her analytical and creative talents in a field that’s often dominated by men. This episode is peppered with humor and candid moments, including how '90s rap (yes, Snoop Dogg!) and a shared love for keeping it real have influenced our philosophies on life.
