EP 1 | Welcome to The Studio Circle + The Keep, Tweak, Trash Method
Welcome to The Studio Circle with Riah Jane — the podcast for women who want to build a business that fits their life, not the other way around.
In this debut episode, Mariah Schneider (aka Riah Jane) — entrepreneur, mom of three, and business coach — shares what it really looks like to build a business right in the messy middle of motherhood, work, and life.
You’ll learn the lesson that changed everything: some of the balls you’re juggling are glass — family, health, peace — and some are rubber — the deadlines, the emails, the endless to-dos. The glass ones you protect. The rubber ones can bounce.
From that moment came Riah’s signature clarity framework, Keep / Tweak / Trash — a simple way to bring rhythm and alignment back into your days:
-
Keep what’s working and protect your glass balls.
-
Tweak what’s almost there so it serves your season better.
-
Trash what’s stealing your energy or no longer fits.
This episode will help you pause, breathe, and make space for what really matters. You’ll walk away knowing that balance isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing what matters most and giving yourself permission to do it differently.
You’re not behind. You’re not alone. You’re right on time.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
-
How to identify your glass and rubber balls — and protect what matters most
-
How to use Keep / Tweak / Trash to simplify your life and business
-
Why small tweaks can lead to big clarity
-
How to let go of the guilt and create harmony instead of hustle
Reflection Prompt:
Take ten quiet minutes and draw three columns — Keep, Tweak, Trash.
Ask yourself:
What’s working?
What needs a small shift?
What can I release to create peace and space?
