Whether you work in a traditional office or online, whether you're a solopreneur or an employee of a big corporation, there's something that you need to master--how to walk the fine line between promoting yourself [your work, your accomplishments, and/or your business] and being annoying, braggy, or downright narcissistic.
In this week's episode, Ben and Mary Catherine take on this topic in two parts: In the first half of the episode, Ben talks about this subject as it relates to promoting yourself and getting noticed in a traditional workplace. In the second half of the episode, Mary Catherine discusses this subject as it pertains to promoting yourself, your products, your services, and/or your business online.
This episode is full of tips on how to stand up for yourself, how to promote your work, and how to market yourself without being that person.

In the second half, we share how we found our new house and the challenges of actually buying that house and securing a mortgage.
Near the end of the episode we delve into the challenges we’re facing now that we own our very first home and some of our tips for those who might be starting the home-buying process (or going through it right now).
You can view a few pictures of our new house on the blog, Starr Struck.
