Plan Simple with Mia Moran

“Your brand is going to evolve. Your business is going to evolve.”

–Barb Pritchard

Summer is a great time to update your brand, and I’m talking with Barb Pritchard, a brand strategist and intuitive designer about what that really looks like.

We talk about why you want to be consistent across platforms — but you brand is more than fonts and colors. You are a big piece of your brand and need to show up visually and in words.

And wh...

“Our gut health is connected to our hormones, our blood sugar and our metabolic health, and when we understand the science behind how our body works, we realize that feeling good during menopause isn't just about managing the estrogen and the progesterone. It's about figuring out these other pieces.”

–Tess Masters

Did you finally figure out how to eat for your body — and then it stopped working? Or you never figured it out and latel...

If we don’t choose the reset, life will usually choose it for us. In this episode, I dive into the magic of consciously resetting—your energy, your goals, your relationship with time itself.

It’s about re-choosing—with clarity.Whether you’re feeling off track...

What if the secret to your next breakthrough isn’t pushing harder—but pressing pause?

In this episode, I explore the surprising power of slowing down. We talk about the kind of pause you choose—and the kind your body chooses for you. From the quiet wisdom of the third trimester of pregnancy to the fog (and insight) of perimenopause, you’ll hear why learning to pause may be the most productive thing you do this year.Plus, I’ll share ...

“What does creating balance look like in the summer?”

–Mia

When you thank summer, do you think vacation, barbecues, and ice cream? I find that a lot of us have a vivid image of how summer should look — and we don’t stop to see if that’s what we really want.

Or we have an idea we want to dial back on business or health or other goals, but it’s jarring to jump from spring to summer and back to fall when you let things get out of balanc...

“When you're not in fight or flight or freeze mode, you're able to be creative and come up with different solutions and bring in different information about what's going on in your world.”

–Cori Myka

My family likes to jump into the water, swim out to the buoy, step onto the way out there rock. I don’t love swimming. I’m one of many adults who are uncomfortable in the water. My guest today, Cori Myka, specializes in helping adults o...

“Every business owner, if they take the time to really craft a powerful message and do that foundational work of getting clear on how they tell their story, can then repurpose that story.”

–Kris Jones

Do you freeze when you have to write about your own business or tell someone what you do? Kris Jones, StoryBrand guide and Founder of Red Door Designs, explains why and what we can do about it.

“When I halved my calendar, we doubled our business.”

–Hanna Hermanson

Sick of the marketing bro energy that doesn’t work with your energy? I’m really excited to talk with Hanna Hermanson, the founder of Feminine Marketing Boutique, about the difference between masculine and feminine energy in marketing.

What if instead of asking people to buy, you invited them in? What if marketing were less pushing yourself to do uncomfortable thin...

In this solo episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of a big shift I’ve been feeling—personally and professionally. After a season of intentional coasting, I’m stepping back into growth mode in a whole new way. I’m sharing what’s changing in my business, how I’m redefining balance in midlife, and why now feels like the right time to go all in. If you're craving aligned action and love a good behind-the-scenes look at how a busin...

In this unscripted, unedited episode, I go rogue (no intro music, no team!) to share something I felt called to say out loud. If you've been feeling the swirl—the overwhelm, the heaviness, the chaos of the world right now—this episode is for you.

I’m sharing how I’ve been navigating this moment as a mom, a coach, a woman approaching 50, and a leader in this community—and why I created Practice What You Preach Week.

“We may be coming to the end of our reproductive cycles and our function as reproducers, but we still have brains, we still have bodies, we still have metabolism to maintain.”

–Kate Wells

Who’s seeing changes throughout their body as they go through perimenopause or enter menopause? I got so much out of this conversation with Kate Wells, owner of Parlor Games, a company focused on products and education to support women in menopause...

“It's never too late, and you're never too old to do anything.”

–Fiona Lambert

We don’t have to become invisible as we age. We don’t have to gain weight, lose fitness, slow down or stall out. What if you could be in the best shape of your life at 60?

Fiona Lambert, author of Invincible Not Invisible, set herself that goal just nine weeks before turning 60. I love her energy and the belief that it’s not too late and you aren’t too old...

“Health is a lifelong process. But when you start thinking, okay, if I loved my body, if I truly loved my body, how would I treat it?”

–Sarah Haas

A lot of times women raise their hand for weight loss, because it's how we've been conditioned to react to the health world, but what if we actually focused on health?

So many of us have negative self-image. We’re used to zeroing on our perceived flaws, but what if we focused on how amazing...

“Being able to really prioritize yourself and your health is going to give you the ability to show up as your best self.”

–Jillian Greaves

Your body is waving the white flag — fatigue, digestive issues, thinning hair, anxiety … Are you paying attention? You wouldn’t be the only one too busy taking care of kids and parents and a business to tend to your own health.

But it’s time to shift our priorities. Functional Dietitian and W...

“Caring about your pelvic floor has big impacts later on.”

Tanya Goodrich, PT and women’s pelvic health specialist, clears up what the pelvic floor is, why it’s so important, and why kegels might not be what you need. (Oh, and they call them blueberries now.)

The pelvic flo...

What if I could get over all the little things that keep holding me back and really be the healthiest version of myself by my 50th birthday?

–Mia

I’m pretty health focused. In fact Plan Simple started when I was 33 with three young kids and a business .. and I wasn’t the healthiest version of myself. There was a day I couldn’t try to power through on coffee any more.

I started with yoga. I changed my food — went raw vegan (without eve...

“Get the discipline of really tracking your numbers on a daily basis.”

–Dahiema Grant

How much money should you be making? It’s a question we grapple with as entrepreneurs, and I dig into it with Dahiema Grant, who helps entrepreneurs succeed with the money side of business.

One of the reasons Dahiema’s money ideas meshes so well with PlanSimple is that she doesn’t separate the person from the business. The lifestyle you want plays a...
