Squirrel’s Guide To Business: Tips For Working With ADHD
Saison 1 · Épisode 6
jeudi 30 janvier 2025 • Durée 01:09:30
Listen, if there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s that managing ADHD while running a business is not for the faint of heart. (Think: trying to focus while a squirrel does cartwheels in your brain.)
Today we’re tackling the beautiful chaos of ADHD and how to work with it instead of fighting against it. This episode has it all — real-life tips you can put into practice today, personal stories (obviously), so many tangents I lost count, and even a blooper reel at the end. And since this one is for my fellow squirrels, I swore I’d keep it short — spoiler: I absolutely did not.
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— Why my brain feels like a squirrel on an espresso bender
— Tiny Tasks 'Til 10: The method that keeps me sane
— Why my phone’s always “in a ditch” (and yours should be too)
— Sticky notes, color-coded calendars, and other ADHD-friendly hacks
— What not to do when managing ADHD
— A Canadian iPhone saga — yes, it’s relevant (kinda)
— The one productivity trick you’ve probably never tried: working with your shoes on
— Plus, a whole lot more squirrel-friendly advice
POINT OF THE STORY
ADHD can make life and business chaotic, but with the right strategies (and a little grace), you can make it your secret weapon.

Everything You Want To Know About Substack
Saison 1 · Épisode 5
jeudi 23 janvier 2025 • Durée 01:24:26
This episode is THE reason this podcast exists. After getting hit with the same Substack questions on repeat, I realized: why not make one epic, tell-all episode to answer them all? So get ready because we’re doing an absolute deep dive into all things Substack — what it is, what it’s not, and why everyone and their favorite influencer seems obsessed with it. We’ll cut through the hype and get real about how to use it without turning your marketing strategy into a hot mess.
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— Why Substack is not the magical marketing unicorn you’ve been dreaming of
— A wild bachelorette party recap (and the reason I sound like a frog in this episode)
— The ultimate breakdown: Substack vs. blogging vs. email newsletters (spoiler: know your lanes)
— My controversial opinion that Substack is not social media, but also...kind of is?
— Paid Substacks: Are they worth it and who should start one?
— Growing on Substack when all you’re getting is radio silence
— Plus, SO much more juicy insights you didn’t know you needed
POINT OF THE STORY
Substack is not an email marketing service provider and it is not a substitute for your blog.
GIVEAWAY
Guess how many times I said the F-word in this episode and DM me the number on Instagram for a chance to win a free subscription to Millionaire Moment on Substack!

Today, I’m sharing my ambitious, audacious, slightly terrifying goal for 2025: I’m making $1 million in course sales this year. No "hope to," no "maybe" — I WILL.
And no, I haven’t joined a pyramid scheme. I’m just a girl, standing in front of a podcast mic, refusing to gatekeep her millionaire dreams. Let’s get into it.

Buckle up because today's episode is one part tough love and one part warm hug. I’m giving you my exact recipe for getting a fucking grip, and there are muffins involved… just trust me.
On the day of recording this, I woke up in peak Sad Girl mode, and after getting kicked by my child all night, I knew it was the perfect day to talk about how to get it together when you feel like absolute trash.
TOPICS & TANGENTS

— The difference between de-stressing and removing stress (game-changing, I swear)

POINT OF THE STORY
You CAN get a fucking grip. It won't be easy, but if you focus on getting a little bit closer each day and doing what works for you, you definitely will.

30 Things I've Learned By 30
Saison 1 · Épisode 2
jeudi 16 janvier 2025 • Durée 54:09
This is it. The episode where I reflect on three whole decades of wins, fails, and lessons — ranging from life-changing truths to random, hilarious realizations that hit me like a truck. If you’re a fellow overachiever, procrastinator, or someone just trying to get a grip (same), this one’s for you.
Spoiler: This episode is not 30 minutes, and you knew it wouldn’t be.
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— My YouTube lifestyle girlie era and how it inspired this list
— Why your body can’t tell the difference between nerves and excitement (because science)
— The life-changing power of “If you don’t ask, the answer is always no”
— How I would easily create a whole business around pubic hair design
— “Reach-out” vs. “reached-out-to” friends (you need to know which one you are!)
— Why rejection is just redirection (and why I’ve chosen to make lemonade out of bruised lemons)
— Why eating cheese when you get COVID is the most vile activity on Earth
— There are sooooo many more lessons in this episode — get cozy because it’s packed!
POINT OF THE STORY
What you’re not changing, you’re choosing. We have so much time, and you’re the one holding the pen — you get to choose how your story goes, even when life hands you bruised lemons.

Welcome to the first ever official episode of Point of the Story! I’m your host, Sara Noel — website copywriter, marketing mentor, unapologetic squirrel, and girl who absolutely will not keep an episode under 30 minutes (except maybe this one).
In this episode, I’m diving into what this podcast is, who it’s for (spoiler: you), and why I’m so freaking pumped to yap with you every week.
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— My third-time’s-the-charm podcast journey (and why the first two flopped)
— My dad’s annual Christmas rant about me talking too fast
— What you can expect: lots of swearing, random tangents, but I promise — we’ll always get back to the point (eventually).

Welcome to Point of the Story — the only podcast you won’t need to listen to on 2x speed!
I’m Sara — website copywriter, marketing mentor, unapologetic squirrel, and now, the host of what will hopefully become your new favorite podcast.
Point of the Story is for the online business girlies trying to market and grow their brands, the ADHD brains that never shut off, the moms juggling business, babies and bullshit, and everyone in between.
We’re talking all things marketing, motherhood, confidence, productivity — and, of course, managing life as a 30-something squirrel brain, trying to figure out how to do it all (or, at the very least, how to not feel bad about not doing it all).
New episodes drop every Thursday — so, if you want to laugh, learn, and commiserate with someone who truly GETS IT — follow along @pointofthestorypod.
It’s about to get real squirrel up in here.

If I had a dollar for every time someone asked for my origin story, I could retire. Okay, maybe not retire, but at least empty the shelves of an entire chocolate shop (my dream).
So here it is — the full story of how I went from having a degree in everything but business to running Between the Lines Copy. And, because I can’t tell this story without mentioning it, how my divorce and my business are forever intertwined. (Spoiler alert: one survived, the other did not. And honestly, zero regrets.)
If you’ve ever wondered how I became Website Girl, Newsletter Girl, Business Mentor Girl, and Squirrel Girl, press play!
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— The pancake theory of first marriages
— The absolute randomness of how I landed on copywritin
— Cold-pitching my way into my first paying clients
— Why my first website was a disaster (RIP GoDaddy era)
— My philosophy degree, which is essentially a degree in reading between the lines
— That one website project that traumatized me for life
— The full-circle moment of working with Showit, Tonic, and Squarespace after resisting them for so long
— How I went from just writing websites to teaching literally everything
— And, of course, what I’d do differently if I were starting over today
POINT OF THE STORY
Your origin story may or may not matter, and that’s up to you. Don’t feel pressured to share yours if it’s not relevant, or not something you want to revisit. But I DO want you to know that, no matter what your story holds, I DO think you should embrace it — even if you had a proverbial pancake flop.
How I’d Market My Brand From Scratch If I Had To Start All Over
Saison 1 · Épisode 8
jeudi 13 février 2025 • Durée 34:03
What would I do if I woke up tomorrow with zero clients, zero leads, and had to start my business from scratch? (Other than cry, obviously.) That’s what we’re covering in this episode — exactly how I’d market my brand if I had to do it all over again. So grab a notebook, because I’m laying out the full game plan!
Spoiler: I wouldn’t start with social media. (I know, don’t come for me!) Instead, I’d focus on building a foundation first, so that all my future marketing efforts actually have something solid to stand on. If you’re curious what that looks like, you have to start listening!
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— The exact eight steps I’d follow to grow my business from scratch
— Why your website should come before **social media

— How my mom risked blindness to read my Apple podcast reviews
— That time I impulsively built my first website on GoDaddy (and immediately regretted it)

POINT OF THE STORY
Focus on growing your foundation before growing your following.

[Minisode!] 4 Phrases To Avoid If You Want To Sound More Confident
lundi 10 février 2025 • Durée 09:02
Surprise! It’s the first-ever Point of the Story minisode! That means a quick episode packed with value — and zero fluff. (Except for the part where I lovingly call you out, of course. And an occasional tangent because if not, would it even be my podcast?)
In this gem of a tiny episode, we're talking about four common phrases that are quietly sabotaging your confidence. These sneaky little fillers make you sound less credible, less powerful, and frankly, less like the badass business owner you are. So, I’m here to help you ditch them. (And yes, “if that makes sense” is on the list — sorry, but not sorry.)
POINT OF THE STORY
The words you use influence how others perceive you. When you cut out these weak phrases, you instantly sound more confident, capable, and self-assured. And isn’t that exactly what we want?
I hope you loved this minisode! I’ll be dropping more short and snappy episodes like this at random, so stay tuned. And in the meantime — don’t you dare apologize for a damn thing you didn’t do.
Love you, if that makes sense. Bye! 🖤
