#20: The Business of Mattering

What if the business you’re building isn’t just a way to earn money or fill your time—but a powerful path to mattering?

In this short, heartfelt episode, Betsy shares a lightbulb moment sparked by a faculty meeting speaker, Zach Mercurio, author of The Power of Mattering. He defined mattering as the opposite of loneliness: the experience of feeling valued and adding value.

This got Betsy thinking—maybe starting a heart-led, service-based business is one of the most meaningful ways to meet this fundamental human need.

You’ll hear:

• What it means to matter—and why it’s more important than you think
• How entrepreneurship can meet your need for significance and connection
• Why businesses that lead with purpose create ripple effects of value for others
• A reflection prompt to help you align your business idea with your deeper purpose W

Whether you’re still in the brainstorming phase or already on the solopreneur path, this episode will leave you feeling inspired to lead with heart, build with intention, and embrace the impact you’re here to make.
