Making Good is the podcast of Church Alley—a small business in New Orleans, LA. This podcast talks about all things small business, including nutrition, challenges, and learning from each other. We hope to share information and conversations that empower small business owners to take care of themselves so they can make good on serving their communities. Church Alley opened as a cafe in 2013, serving delicious locally roasted coffee, homemade pastries, and lunch. In 2020, we expanded our offerings by partnering with over a dozen local small businesses looking for new ways to stay in business. We met so many amazing people doing good work and we couldn’t keep the conversations to ourselves! The cafe closed in November 2024. Church Alley continues as a pantry line that can be found around New Orleans and as a small nutrition & habits coaching business. Small business owners face higher rates of autoimmune disease and are more likely to be dyslexic and have ADHD than the general population. This podcast shares good information for small business owners to take care of themselves so they can keep serving.

In this solo episode, I talk in greater detail about my decision to close Church Alley Cafe. I get rather raw about how I make huge decisions like this, how this impacted my thoughts on my identity, and how I am navigating the messy middle before the net of the next chapter appears.
All my planning over the past two years fell apart but I know I'm not alone. So many of us are navigating new situations that we couldn't have anticipated. But here we are! Making it work anyway.
