| 09 Feb 2021 | Are Entrepreneurs Born or Made? | 00:22:25 | |
Today, it’s just the two of us on the podcast and we’re debating the question “Are entrepreneurs born or are they made?” While the answer is probably a mix of both, Ildiko and I are discussing our thoughts on the controversial topic. Some people believe that entrepreneurs are born with something special, something different. Perhaps, but, business acumen can also be taught, and creative ideas can be nurtured.
In this episode you’ll find that Ildiko and I have slightly different views on whether or not entrepreneurship are born. We’d love to know the audience's thoughts on this. What do you think about entrepreneurship? Maybe you have kids who seem like creators or visionaries, we’d love to know! Please tag us on instagram and leave us a review.

Juliane Corona graduated from California State University Bakersfield with a degree in Business Administration, focusing on Marketing. After she became pregnant, she began researching the benefits of placenta encapsulation and was disappointed to find no one in her area offered the service, so she decided to take matters into her own hands. Juliane trained under another Placenta Encapsulation specialist in California then went on to earn certifications in Bloodborne Pathogens and OSHA’s Safe Food Handling before completing the Placenta Benefits training program. When she founded Mommy Made Encapsulation and started offering placenta encapsulation Juliane worked hard to become an expert in placenta encapsulation, she loves sharing her knowledge, often appearing on T.V., radio, or podcasts, and contributing to articles about the subject.
Juliane joins us today to share why she is passionate about educating women on the effects of postpartum depression and the benefits of placenta encapsulation to perinatal health as a whole. She discusses how her business idea took off and what it's like to work alongside her husband Rick, and details the huge leap of faith they took at the beginning of their journey. Juliane also shares their experience of outsourcing some of the daily tasks and how that benefits the business and their family and why they try hard not to work at weekends to make time to enjoy the small moments of pleasure in life.
"When you start your business don't just go with whatever you think is going to stick to the wall, it has to come from what you are really and truly passionate about - the passion will shine through and you will find success." - Juliane Corona

In this thought-provoking episode of the Pretty and Punk Podcast, hosts Ildiko Ferenczi and Dan Caldwell tackle a concept crucial to success in both personal and professional life: picking your battles.As entrepreneurs, parents, and partners, they’ve come to realize that not every disagreement deserves a fight, in fact, learning when to step back can be just as powerful as knowing when to stand firm.
First, Ildiko and Dan share their insights into picking battles in marriage. They break down why certain issues are worth fighting for and why others simply aren’t, emphasizing how wise conflict choices can strengthen a relationship. Tackling the misconception that married couples should agree on everything, they explain how disagreements can actually build trust and foster deeper connection, so long as the “battles” are chosen with care.
The discussion then shifts to parenting, where they highlight the importance of picking battles with children. In a world filled with external influences, parents often struggle to decide when to intervene and when to give their children room to learn from experience.
Ildiko and Dan explore how selectively engaging in conflict can encourage children’s independence while reinforcing the values that matter most.
Finally, the episode explores how picking your battles is equally vital in business, especially for CEOs and business owners. With years of experience in leading teams, Ildiko and Dan delve into the delicate balance of standing your ground with employees while fostering a collaborative, productive environment. They offer insights into how knowing when to address issues and when to step back can boost morale, strengthen leadership, and drive a business forward.
Join Ildiko and Dan as they share practical tips and real-life stories to help you apply this skill in marriage, parenting, and business.

| 02 Dec 2024 | Bonus Episode: Divorce-Proof Your Marriage – Why Obsessing over Business Success Will Always Destroy What Truly Matters! | 00:26:25 | |
In this heartfelt bonus episode of the Pretty and Punk Podcast, hosts iLdiKo Ferenczi and Dan Caldwell tackle one of the most overlooked truths about entrepreneurial success: Your marriage is the foundation for everything.
It’s not just a catchy phrase—it’s a reality backed by years of experience and therapist insights. When parents focus more on building their businesses than nurturing their marriage and family during the critical early years, the damage can be lasting. The truth is, children who feel abandoned emotionally or physically will gravitate toward the parent who is present and trustworthy. Once that bond is broken, rebuilding it becomes nearly impossible.
Dan and iLdiKo get raw and real, share the struggle of marriage, obstacles, building, selling, businesses while prioritizing their marriage and raising strong, connected children. They reveal the warning signs of putting work over family and the devastating impact it can have—not just on your marriage, but on your relationship with your kids.
This is the episode for entrepreneurs who are striving to excel in both their personal and professional lives. You’ll discover how to balance love, family, and business, creating a legacy that lasts for generations.
Don’t miss this chance to learn how to divorce-proof your marriage and build an unshakeable foundation for success.

| 03 Oct 2023 | Three key Pillars Every Marriage Needs To Survive | 00:28:41 | |
Join hosts Ildiko Ferenczi and Dan Caldwell as they delve deep into the foundation of strong marriages, especially for entrepreneurial couples juggling business and children. In this insightful episode, they highlight the three key pillars essential for marital harmony and longevity and why they were important in their marriage and why it should be important to yours.
Having a Common Purpose - Just like teammates on the court, couples need a united vision. Forging a legacy together, nurturing family dreams, setting your health goals together, charting your life’s journey together, all of these shared objectives fortify your bond together and if they are not aligned it can make it difficult to stay connected and keep that strong relationship.
Aligned Principles - Delve into the heart of shared beliefs and morals. Understanding and respecting each other’s spiritual journey. A journey that probably only works if aligned on the same path. Ensuring the core values imparted to your future children are in sync, this pillar underscores the ethical backbone of a union.
Shared Lifestyle & Hobbies - Having mutual interests and pastimes so that these shared experiences, can bring you closer together and not further apart.
In addition, Ildiko and Dan candidly discuss the challenges couples face when they aren’t aligned in these vital areas, shedding light on potential pitfalls and how to navigate them. Another must-listen for anyone seeking to fortify their marital foundation amidst the whirlwind of entrepreneurship and parenting.

| 31 Mar 2021 | Tori Gerbig: How This Mompreneur Built a 100 Million Dollar Online Boutique From Scratch | 00:45:37 | |
Today we’re chatting with Boss Lady Tori Gerbig. Tori is the founder and CEO of Pink Lily. Pink Lily is one of the fastest-growing online women’s clothing retailers in America. Pink Lily brings women an ever-changing assortment of apparel, footwear, and accessories. In 2013 Tori and her husband Chris had their first baby, Jackson. While on maternity leave with no income, Tori noticed the bills piling up. She started experimenting with online marketplaces selling various items to help make ends meet. Her online community of friends quickly grew from a few hundred members to over 10,000 in a short period of time. It was at this moment that Tori realized how passionate she was about building relationships with other women and helping support them through their fashion choices. In 2014, with no capital, Tori and her husband Chris created the online clothing website, Pink Lily.
In this episode we’re touching on the explosive growth Pink Lily has had in the last few years, the learning curve from going from one to 200 employees, how connecting with social media influencers was pivotal to Pink Lily’s success, Tori’s unique style of marketing, and of course, juggling the work-life balance.
“Really hone in on your customers. Get to know what they want, what they like, and what they buy. Then go after similar customers and market to them in a way that they respond.” - Tori Gerbig

On this episode of the Pretty and Punk podcast, we’re diving into a topic that hits close to home for so many parents—especially moms. As entrepreneurs, parents, and partners, we know firsthand the pressure to do it all and be it all. But why do so many moms feel like they’re failing, despite giving everything they’ve got? We’ll explore the harsh realities behind society’s unrealistic expectations and uncover the statistics that show just how widespread this struggle is: 80% of moms feel the pressure to be “perfect,” 63% feel overwhelmed by social media, and over half of working moms believe they’re failing both at work and at home.

In this episode, we share four practical steps to help moms overcome these pressures, reframe their mindset, set healthy boundaries, and build a supportive network.

| 02 Nov 2020 | Best or Worst Decision? You Decide | 00:32:10 | |
Dan and Ildiko are on the podcast today to talk about how they initially decided to raise their kids without a nanny, but are now shifting their mindsets and are open to possibly bringing a nanny on board in the future. Then, they walk the listeners through a few things to consider when hiring a nanny and why the people that kids spend the most time with, have the most significant impact on them. This leads them into a bigger conversation about how the things they used to value most have changed and they’re no longer focused on shiny objects as a metric for success.
The important thing to remember when listening to this episode is that having a nanny is personal choice and doesn’t reflect positively or negatively on you as a parent.
“It shouldn’t be kids that stop your from living out your dreams—and that whether you have to make them part of it, or you bring them into the business, or you do the business while you’re also raising your kids, that should be possible.” – Dan Caldwell

| 26 Oct 2020 | Finding a Billion Dollar Idea! | 00:39:44 | |
Whether it is a work of art, a collectible piece of history, an autograph from an inspirational athlete, or a quote from an entrepreneurial leader, these things in which we surround ourselves with, have a profound affect on us. Knowing that these great Individuals have encountered challenges in their lives, and have found the courage to triumph over them, defying the impossible and changing the world, is both inspiring and it gives us strength. The most successful individuals in the world are known for collecting art, autographed items, and for using quotes to derive inspiration. We've found a way to bring all of these things together in a way that will both inspire you, and give you long term investment value.
Today on the podcast we’re sharing our journey into creating Billionaire Collectables. Several years back, we wanted to launch a business that we were both inspired by, a business that we could wake up feeling excited to work on. We tossed around a few different ideas, including Ildiko’s Bikini Line, which started to get some momentum, but just didn’t feel right. One night after watching The Walk, a movie about Philippe Petit, the man who walked across a wire between the tops of the Twin Towers, we started having a deep conversation about how entrepreneurs would be inspired by this film and other great athletes, inventors and CEO’s. We thought it would be amazing to create pieces of art based on these high performing people, which could be displayed in homes, offices, lobbies etc... We took this idea and ran with it and created our first pieces to sell. Coincidentally we’re both collectors and actually had some pieces in our own collections that we used for Billionaire Collectables first items to sell.
We hope this episode gives you some inspiration to put the wheels in motion on your side hustle or business idea. An important takeaway is that you shouldn’t force your idea. The best ideas will reveal themselves to you in prayer or meditation. Talk to your spouse and make sure you’re both equally excited about an idea.
"It felt right, your gut will tell you. You’re going to fall on such amazing blessings and signs if you just ask for them and that’s what happened." - Ildiko Ferenczi

Entitled “Pushing Greatness, Are We Helping or Hurting Our Kids?" this episode jumps into the challenges of guiding children towards achieving their highest potential while safeguarding their individual passions and well-being. Dan and iLdiKo, both seasoned entrepreneurs who have navigated the waters of building and selling multi-million dollar businesses, share their experiences and perspectives on the delicate art of parenting.
The discussion kicks off with a dive into the controversial question: Are we helping or hurting our children by pushing them towards success? Dan and iLdiKo candidly reflect on their own parenting strategies, emphasizing the importance of striking a balance between encouragement and pressure. They explore the societal pressures and personal anxieties that come with parenting, whether there exists a universal right approach to encouraging children’s growth.
Highlighting real-life examples from their family life, the hosts share stories of how they’ve nurtured their children’s interests and talents from a young age, focusing on the critical role of observation and support in recognizing and fostering each child’s unique gifts.

| 29 Dec 2020 | How To Make Life Changing New Year’s Resolutions | 00:27:51 | |
2020 has been a whirlwind. Many people lost loved ones, while others experienced the joy of working from home and got to spend more time with their families. Some people lost their businesses or their jobs, while others saw an opportunity to start a new business or side hustle. Regardless, this year hit everyone hard. While most of us got knocked down in some way during the wrath of COVID-19, the important thing is getting back up and counting the blessing that you do have.
In 2020 you may have learned more about yourself than in any of the previous years of your life. You probably learned what you do like, what you don’t like, how you like to spend your time and the importance of health and family. So, in this episode we’re discussing what we’re looking forward to in 2021, the adjustments we’re making in our family, of course sharing our New Year’s Resolutions, as well as consulting you guys on the best type of resolutions to make and how to stay accountable to them.
“Less than 8% of people make it to the end of the year with their New Year’s Resolution. Less than 25% make it past 30 days” - Dan Caldwell

EP 190 The Enemy’s Strategy: Using the People Close to You to Destroy Your Marriage! Protecting Your Marriage from Toxic Influences.
The Enemy’s Strategy: Using the People Close to You to Destroy Your Marriage! Protecting Your Marriage from Toxic Influences. Join Dan Caldwell and Ildiko Ferenczi this week as they uncover a terrifying reality: the enemy is not always an external force, but often works through those closest to you—your friends, family, and sometimes even your parents—to destroy your marriage. With biblical truths like Matthew 10:36 reminding us that “a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household,” it’s crucial to be aware of the spiritual warfare at play. Don’t let what God has joined together be torn apart by the enemy’s subtle, yet dangerous, tactics.The truth is, the enemy doesn’t always attack from the outside. Sometimes, the most dangerous threats to your marriage come from those closest to you—family, friends, and loved ones who are unknowingly being used to tear apart your union. Whether it’s toxic, single friends, divorced friends harboring resentment, ex’s, or even family members who impose unrealistic expectations, the enemy often uses these relationships as a subtle, destructive force to drive a wedge between you and your spouse.

In this compelling episode, hosts Ildiko Ferenczi and Dan Caldwell dive deep into the pressing topic of financial literacy for the younger generation. Born out of a spontaneous discussion, they decided to prioritize and shed light on the pivotal question: should parents leave a fortune to their kids?
