In this special solo episode, Christene Marie shares the heart, history, and vision behind The Craft & Calling Podcast—and the community it’s building for business owners who refuse to do it alone.
Drawing from her own entrepreneurial journey, her work in her family’s 100-year-old painting business, and decades of community-building, Christene unpacks why legacy, brand, and community are inseparable.
You’ll hear:
- The origin story of Craft & Calling and why it’s rooted in connection and collaboration
- Why isolation is one of the greatest threats to entrepreneurial growth
- The “Three C’s” (customers, colleagues, competitors) and how to keep them from running your business
- The three pillars of a strong brand: Identity, Story, and Empathy—and how they shape every customer interaction
- Why every value you hold must be anchored in a personal story to create emotional resonance
- How to define what you truly want so you can build your business and legacy with intention
This episode is a call to action for leaders in the trades—and beyond—who want to step into the arena, live from their values, and create a business that outlasts them.
