Humans evolve. Ideas change. And honestly, how is a creative human supposed to stick to one podcast idea for half a decade and a ton of episodes? I have no idea.


That’s why Big Fun, Small Business is an audio sketchbook of all the things I’ve explored since starting back in 2020. It’s a collection of ideas, rants, pep talks, tips, and a very real evolution of what it looks like to build a business when your values are rooted in experimentation, creativity, and being true to yourself.


Some episodes might have old ads to products I tried that don’t exist anymore. But for someone who started with a podcast called Imperfect Party, I say eff it.


This audio sketchbook celebrates the mistakes, the pivots, the tears. It’s a journey, and kind of a wild ride. Because no matter what a well oiled sales page tells you, running a business is hard, but it can also be a lot of fun.


If you hear something you want to chat about, I’d genuinely love to hear from you. You can email me anytime at deannaseymour.com.

And if you want to hang out beyond the podcast, you’re welcome to join my free community, The Playhouse, at jointheplayhouse.com.

Happy listening! 🎉💖

  • Questioning AI: A Candid Conversation About Legit Concerns on the Environmental Impacts, Creativity, Surveillance, and Ethical Dilemmas
    2026/06/23

    I hopped on a Zoom call with eight small business owners to yap about our feelings about AI. We talk about the damage to the environment, loss of skills and creativity, and the surveillance state. It wasn’t really about finding answers, but just chatting about what we’re thinking as everyone gets swept up in the hype.

    In this episode:

    2:21 Real talk on AI’s environmental impact
    4:22 Is AI killing our creativity?
    9:57 The scary side of AI and surveillance
    13:01 When “using AI for fun” stops being fun
    30:25 Have your thoughts on AI changed over time?
