Has "Authenticity" Lost its Meaning? with Melissa Snow
Authenticity used to be my favorite word...
I used to absolutely LOVE the word "authentic". It meant something. Genuine and true blue.
I blame marketing but authenticity has lost a bit of its spark as it became a "strategy" and "tool" for business owners.
In this episode, my guest, Melissa Snow and I get into the word Authenticity and unpack what it really means. We also couple it with another scary one that goes hand-in-hand with being authentic, "networking". Don't let the internet buzz r

That Smells Like a Story! With Helida Dodd of Marbella Perfumes

Chase Your Goosebumps, with Bonnie Wan of The Life Brief
This past year, life's felt a little more cluttered and confusing to me than usual.
As I was starting to do some of my end-of-year reflections and planning forward, I asked myself some of my usual questions:
"What do I want in the coming year? What do I want to create? What do I want in my LIFE?"
And a lot of my answers weren't really satisfying or deeply fulfilling. They were based largely on what I wanted to do and accomplish, and didn't really get into who I wanted to be.

Your Personal Manifesto, with Bevin Farrand
What would it look like to DO the damn thing you REALLY want to do in your life? Do you know where to start identifying what that thing is and how to make space for it?
To wrap up 2023, I wanted something new, fresh, and inspiring vs. just the normal old goal-setting and planning. I wanted to get super solid on WHAT I'm focusing on in the coming year and WHY. I want to go after my biggest dreams 150%!
In order to get clear on what that looked like, I needed to dump all the puzzle pieces of my

Are You ”One of the Guys”? With Emily Nichols
The words we use shape our every day, our environment, the people around us, and our world.
Are we using words and phrases in a way that creates the world we want to live in? Are we using language in a way that allows us to intentionally connect, include, and bring people together?
In this episode, with special guest Emily Nichols, we look at the topic of the many things we say (and phrases we take for granted), and how they can actually work to alienate and separate, rather than unite and inc

Follow Your Fears: A Healthy State of Panic with Farnoosh Torabi
Are you afraid of FEAR?
There's a lot of messaging out there about how we need to stare our fear in the face and crush it! "Do it scared"

THE Podcaster on Podcasting with Adam Adams
I believe podcasts have the power to change lives.
Podcasts help people access information and education in an affordable (often free) way. They give voice to messages of hosts and guests who may not otherwise have a platform to share their impact.
