The Renaissance Podcast
A "renaissance" signifies any revival, transformation, or renewed interest in something, often marked by a burst of creativity, intellectual activity, and cultural development. It’s time to start a Renaissance in your business and LIFE with The Renaissance Podcast, a weekly show for women entrepreneurs. This isn’t just any podcast—it’s your ultimate source for inspiration, education, and the spark you need to revive, renew, and infuse creativity and opportunity into your business.
Entrepreneurship is as much a mindset game as it is about business savvy. That’s why we’re bringing you wisdom from multi-six and seven-figure female founders who share how they support, grow, and operate their successful businesses. They have clarity around their missions and balance it all with home life, motherhood, and mental wellbeing. They're here to show you how they do it. We’re not fans of the “B” word (balance), but we believe it’s possible to run a business that gives you the keys to your dream life—including everything you love—your Renaissance life.
Hosted by Sydney Dozier, founder of Renaissance Marketing Group—one of Nashville’s top social media marketing agencies—and creator of the successful bi-annual Renaissance Women's Summit, this show is all about empowering women to live their Renaissance lives. Sydney’s mission is to inspire you to invest in yourself, because that positive impact WILL and DOES ripple through your business.
Expect to be inspired, empowered, uplifted, and encouraged. Say goodbye to that isolating feeling of being a woman entrepreneur—we’re here to build a community of Renaissance women who share openly and vulnerably about our business journeys.
Your Renaissance is just getting started, and we're so glad you're here!

You’re the Bottleneck—Here’s How to Fix It and Scale Faster as an Entrepreneur
If you feel like you're drowning in emails, meetings, and never-ending to-do lists, chances are you're the bottleneck in your own business—and it’s costing you time, energy, and profit.
In this episode of The Renaissance Podcast, Mike O’Connor, Founder & CEO of NexusPoint, and Kimeran Johnson, Partner & COO, reveal the one thing successful CEOs master that struggling entrepreneurs avoid: delegation.
Mike, a serial entrepreneur who built and sold multiple businesses with $30M+ in annual revenue before the age of 32, shares how he pivoted from real estate to launching NexusPoint, a global talent sourcing firm designed to help entrepreneurs scale quickly and cost-effectively. Alongside Kimeran, who brings decades of executive leadership and scaling experience, they break down:
✅ The biggest mindset shifts that separate overwhelmed founders from thriving CEOs
✅ Why hiring a virtual or executive assistant (VA) is a game-changer for business growth
✅ The most impactful tasks to delegate that entrepreneurs often overlook
✅ How to identify the right moment to bring in support—and avoid common hiring mistakes
✅ How outsourcing can actually increase profitability and prevent burnout
If you’ve been holding on too tightly to your to-do list, this episode is your permission slip to delegate, streamline, and scale smarter.
