Hey there, we’re Brian and Carrie Corcoran, the husband-and-wife duo behind Hustle Northwest, a podcast based right here in Salem, Oregon. If you’re someone who loves small businesses, supporting local, or just hearing stories about people hustling hard in the Willamette Valley, this is the show for you.
Why We Started This Podcast
We’re both deeply rooted in the local community—Brian’s a real estate photographer, and Carrie’s a realtor. So yeah, we could’ve easily made this a real estate podcast, but honestly, there’s so much more happening around here that we wanted to dive into, and real estate can be boring for a lot of people.
As a Salem Oregon podcast we’ve met so many entrepreneurs throughout Portland, Salem, Corvallis, and Oregon who have amazing stories. We realized people need to hear them. Whether it’s someone launching a business from their garage or a local shop that’s been around for decades, Hustle Northwest is all about giving these entrepreneurs a platform to share their journeys.
What to Expect in Every Episode
Every week, we sit down with a different local business owner or entrepreneur. From Salem to Silverton, we’re showcasing the unique people that make this community thrive. You’ll hear about their struggles, triumphs, and what it takes to run a business in Oregon.
Some episodes are funny, some are deep, but all of them are real. We keep it raw and down-to-earth because, honestly, life’s messy—and so is running a business. We’re here to inspire other entrepreneurs, but also to show the community what goes on behind the scenes.
Why Support Small Businesses?
We’re huge believers in supporting local businesses. When you buy local, you’re not just grabbing a cup of coffee or a handmade craft—you’re supporting someone’s dream. And especially here in the Willamette Valley, small businesses are at the heart of everything. Whether it’s the local brewery, the family-run coffee shop, or a small startup, these businesses bring character and grit to our region.
If you’re a small business owner yourself or someone who just loves supporting local, this podcast is for you. Our episodes are packed with useful insights, lessons learned, and plenty of moments where we go, “Wow, I didn’t know that.”
