Together, we're redefining what it means, looks and feels like, to be doing "woman's work" in the world today. With confidence and the occasional rant.
From boardrooms to studios, kitchens to coding dens, we explore the multifaceted experiences of today's woman, confirming that the new definition of "woman's work" is whatever feels authentic, true, and right for you.
We're shedding expectations, setting aside the "shoulds", giving our finger to the "supposed tos". We're torching the old playbook and writing our own rules.
Who runs the world? You decide.

Let’s be honest: when it comes to pelvic floor health, most of us have been fed a steady diet of silence, shame, and “just deal with it.” But that ends today.
In this episode, we welcome Dr. Sara Reardon, aka The Vagina Whisperer (yes, really), a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist, TED speaker, and author of FLOORED: A Complete Guide to Women’s Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage. With nearly 20 years of experience, Sara is here to deliver straight talk and science-backed wisdom about what’s actually going on down there.
Pelvic floor dysfunction is common—but it’s not normal. From postpartum issues to painful sex, pee leaks to prolapse, this is your permission slip to stop suffering in silence and start getting the care you deserve. No more brushing it off. No more white-knuckling your way through it. Just informed, empowered choices about your health and your body.
In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ What your pelvic floor actually is and why it matters ✅ Signs it’s not functioning properly (and that you shouldn’t ignore) ✅ How to advocate for yourself in a healthcare system that often overlooks women ✅ Why pain, leakage, and shame are NOT normal parts of womanhood
This isn’t just a health issue—it’s a confidence, autonomy, and quality of life issue. Understanding your body is woman’s work. Taking care of it unapologetically? Also woman’s work.

I’m joined by Carla Biesinger, business mentor and online course creator who has helped over 7,000 women grow profitable businesses using Instagram, email marketing, and connection-driven strategy. After running a 7-figure restaurant in Argentina, Carla took her business online—and never looked back.

For a lot of us—especially high-achieving women—ambition can feel like a double-edged sword. It drives us, fuels us, and pushes us forward. But it can also drain us, disconnect us, and quietly lead us away from who we really are.
That’s exactly why I invited Amina AITai back to the podcast. She’s a holistic business and career coach, a chronic illness advocate, a proud immigrant, and one of the most grounded voices on what it means to live and lead with intention. In her new book, The Ambition Trap: How to Stop Chasing and Start Living, Amina unpacks the toxic side of ambition—and how to reclaim it in a way that actually serves you.
We talk about the ambition myths that keep women stuck, the pressure to perform at all costs, and how to get out of the cycle of striving and back into alignment with what really matters. This isn’t about playing small—it’s about playing smart. Purposefully. Intuitively. Sustainably.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ What the ambition trap is—and how to know if you're in it
✅ The difference between aligned ambition and external pressure
✅ Why burnout isn't a badge of honor
✅ Practices to reconnect with your brilliance and body
✅ The surprising role rest plays in achievement
Ambition isn’t the problem. The problem is chasing a version of success that was never really yours to begin with. It’s time to stop striving and start living—from the inside out.

We talk a lot about confidence on this show—what it is, how to build it, and how to hold onto it in a world that’s constantly trying to tear it down. And when it comes to raising confident girls? The most powerful thing we can do isn’t lecture or list strategies—it’s model it. Because confidence is contagious. Especially when it’s real.
In this episode, I’m joined by Cyndi Roy Gonzalez, Executive Director of Girls on the Run Greater Boston, an organization that’s helping thousands of girls build confidence, community, and the kind of inner strength that lasts well beyond the finish line. Since 2010, they’ve served over 18,000 girls in Eastern Massachusetts—and they’re just getting started.
Together, we talk about what it actually takes to help young girls grow into confident women, why we need to challenge the limitations society places on them, and how adults can model the kind of authenticity and courage we hope to see in the next generation. Because confidence isn’t just something we teach. It’s something we live.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ Why modeling confidence is the most impactful thing adults can do
✅ How Girls on the Run helps girls tap into their strengths and voice
✅ The role of joy, movement, and connection in developing self-trust
✅ Why confidence is more than achievement—it’s about authenticity
✅ How to challenge societal messages that limit girls (and us)
The world doesn’t need more pretty wallflowers or shrinking violets—it needs authentic, confident humans who speak their truth, live with purpose, and run toward the life they want and the things that matter most—to THEM.

We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it?
In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir, Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times. Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing.
Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it
✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle
✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing
✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making
✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power)
Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

Let’s be real: some of us aren’t just experiencing burnout—we’re perfecting it. Overachieving our way into exhaustion. Piling on responsibilities like it’s an Olympic sport. And believing that if we just get it right enough, peace and happiness will magically follow.
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Tiffany Moon, a board-certified anesthesiologist, CEO, speaker, entrepreneur, wine and candle maker (yes, really), and reality TV alum—basically a walking resume of overachievement. But she’s also someone who knows what it feels like to chase perfection at the expense of joy—and how to break free from it.
Her book, Joy Prescriptions, explores the cost of perfectionism and what it really takes to reclaim your happiness. Together, we’re talking burnout, boundaries, high-achieving pressure, and how to stop proving your worth through productivity.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ What perfectionist burnout really looks like (and why it’s so sneaky)
✅ The hidden cost of tying your identity to achievement
✅ Why rest is not a reward—it’s a requirement
✅ Practical ways to redefine success without burning out
If you’re tired of proving, pushing, or performing your way to “enough”—this one’s for you.

Feeling exhausted, anxious, bloated, foggy, or just off—and being told “it’s normal” because you’re aging or just a woman? Yeah, no. It’s not normal. And it’s definitely not something you have to accept.
In this eye-opening episode, I’m joined by Dr. Erika Schwartz, a pioneer in bio-identical hormone therapy and founder of Evolved Science, where she’s flipping traditional medicine on its outdated, symptom-chasing head. With over 30 years of experience, eight best-selling books, and a global reputation for helping people reclaim their health, Dr. Erika is here to tell us: your hormones matter. And ignoring them could be the reason you feel like garbage—even if all your labs come back “normal.”
We’re talking real solutions, not band-aids. Actual prevention, not prescriptions. And a whole new way of thinking about what your body needs to thrive—especially as you age.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ Why traditional medicine is failing women—especially around hormones
✅ The truth about hormone imbalance (and how to fix it)
✅ What bio-identical hormone therapy really is—and why it matters
✅ Signs your hormones are out of whack (that your doctor might miss)
✅ How to advocate for yourself in a medical system that often won’t
✅ What true health optimization looks like (spoiler: not another pill)
It’s time to stop accepting exhaustion as a fact of life and start demanding answers—and better care. Because your hormones aren’t the problem. They’re the starting point to feeling like yourself again.

Clutter isn’t just a pile of stuff on your desk or a closet that won’t close—it’s a drain on your energy, your focus, and your peace of mind. And if your physical space feels chaotic, chances are something deeper is, too.
In this episode, I’m joined by Shira Gill, globally recognized home organizing expert and author of LifeStyled: Your Guide to a More Organized & Intentional Life. Shira has helped thousands of people—from busy moms to top executives—cut through the chaos and create lives that actually feel good to live in.
We talk about why organizing isn’t about perfection (thank goodness), how your home reflects your inner world, and how simplifying your life is one of the most powerful forms of self-care. This is your permission slip to let go—of clutter, of pressure, of things that aren’t serving you—and create space for what actually matters.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ The connection between clutter, stress, and mental overwhelm
✅ How to edit your life with compassion and clarity
✅ Why “lowering the bar” can be the key to more joy
✅ How to use decluttering as a path to self-respect and confidence
Clearing physical space clears mental space. And when we stop trying to keep up with the clutter—literal and emotional—we make room for peace, creativity, and freedom.

Let’s be real—being a woman isn’t either empowering or exhausting… it’s both, often at the same damn time. And the parts we’re told to keep quiet about? The messy, emotional, deeply human ones? Those are exactly the conversations we need to have out loud.In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Jessica Zucker, psychologist, writer, and creator of the viral #IHadaMiscarriage campaign. She’s the author of I Had a Miscarriage: A Memoir, A Movement, and her newest book Normalize It: Upending the Silence, Stigma, and Shame That Shape Women’s Lives is a battle cry for truth, healing, and visibility.We talk about the power of saying the quiet parts out loud—especially when it comes to miscarriage, reproductive health, grief, and the impossible expectations women are expected to carry. This is for anyone who’s tired of pretending everything’s fine and ready to tell the whole story—not just the polished parts.In This Episode, We Cover:✅ The emotional toll of silence, stigma, and “looking fine”✅ Why normalizing miscarriage, loss, and vulnerability matters✅ The importance of speaking up (even when it’s uncomfortable)✅ Why telling your story is healing for you and for othersWhen we normalize what’s real, we free ourselves—and each other.

We’ve been told self-care is selfish, indulgent—even unnecessary. That being a “good woman” means putting everyone else first and clapping for ourselves last. But what if real self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s a radical, world-shifting, life-saving act of rebellion?In this episode, I’m joined by Shelly Tygielski, author of Sit Down to Rise Up and founder of Pandemic of Love, a mutual aid movement that’s provided over $100 million in direct aid. Named one of Mindful.org’s “12 Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement,” Shelly is here to help us rethink everything we thought we knew about self-care.We talk about the toxic messages that keep women burned out and worn down, the myth of positive thinking, and how showing up for ourselves—fully and unapologetically—is the foundation of showing up for anyone else. Because self-care isn’t about escape. It’s about power. It’s about choosing yourself on purpose.In This Episode, We Cover:✅ Why self-care is an act of activism—not selfishness✅ The real reason “positive vibes only” can be toxic✅ How to opt out of burnout culture and still get sh*t done✅ The difference between self-soothing and true self-care✅ Creating community care alongside personal care✅ What it really looks like to walk away from the tightrope (and the circus)Self-care isn’t selfish. It’s a revolution.

Whether you check your horoscope religiously or just know your sun sign and call it a day, this episode is for you. We’re diving into astrology not as fate or fluff—but as a tool for clarity, confidence, and career alignment.
Joining me is Tali Edut, one half of the iconic AstroTwins duo (yes, the astrologers behind Beyoncé’s chart).

Their newest book, The Astrology Advantage: Use Your Horoscope for Personal and Professional Success, shows how your birth chart can help you navigate relationships, leadership, business, and life... without needing to memorize your moon sign.
We unpack what it means to be an Innovator, Maven, or Authority (I’m an Authority, for the record), and how these archetypes can be your secret edge in work and in life. Think of this as astrology, upgraded—less “woo,” more who you are and how to own it.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ How astrology can support your personal growth and career clarity
✅ The 3 I*AM leadership archetypes—and how to find yours
✅ What a birth chart actually reveals about your natural gifts
✅ Using astrology as a practical tool for decision-making

We live in a world that screams more, more, more—more money, more success, more hustle, more everything. But what if the key to fulfillment isn't more... it's enough?
In this episode, we're joined by Elizabeth Husserl, financial advisor, speaker, and co-founder of Peak360 Wealth Management, to unpack the mindset shift from scarcity to sufficiency. Elizabeth has helped leaders at companies like Airbnb, Google, and Unity redefine their relationship with wealth—and today, she’s helping us do the same.
This conversation is for those of us who technically have enough—but still don’t feel like it. If you’ve ever tied your worth to your bank balance, your achievements, or someone else’s definition of success, this one’s for you. Because true abundance isn’t found in the numbers—it’s found in freedom, contentment, and choice.
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ The hidden fears that keep us chasing “more”
✅ Why scarcity is a mindset—and how to break free from it
✅ How to build a wealth philosophy rooted in values, not fear
✅ What “enough” actually means and how to define it for yourself
✅ Letting go of comparison and external validation
✅ How contentment leads to greater confidence, peace, and power
You are enough. You have enough. And believing that? It just might be the most powerful investment you ever make.

Boundaries vs. Ultimatums with Jan & Jillian Yuhas | 297
On this episode we dive into a topic that affects every single one of us: boundaries. But more specifically, we’re breaking down the key differences between boundaries and ultimatums—because let’s be real, people get these mixed up all the time.
And who better to tackle this than two people who have probably had to master boundary-setting since birth? Identical twins Jan and Jillian Yuhas are Relationship and Conflict Resolution Consultants, as well as international best-selling authors of Boundary Badass: A Powerful Method for Elevating Your Value and Relationships. With backgrounds in psychotherapy and family mediation, they’ve spent over a decade coaching high-achieving entrepreneurs, companies, and families on how to build stronger relationships, set healthy boundaries, and communicate with clarity.
Boundaries aren’t about controlling others—they’re about protecting your time, energy, and values. That means practicing:
🔥 Staying true to yourself
🔥 Prioritizing what matters most
🔥 Communicating your needs with clarity
🔥 Honoring yourself without apology
Because when you respect your own boundaries, others will too.

Workplace wellness is broken. Free snacks, ping-pong tables, yoga-at-lunch—none of it actually works if your workplace culture is toxic or disconnected. So what does create a thriving, healthy work environment? According to today’s guests, it starts with leadership—and it’s a lot less about perks and a lot more about people.
We’re diving deep into the real future of workplace wellness with Dr. Patricia Grabarek and Dr. Katina Sawyer, co-founders of Workr Beeing and co-authors of the book Leading for Wellness: How to Create a Team Culture Where Everyone Thrives. These two powerhouse I/O psychologists have spent their careers studying what actually works when it comes to employee well-being, team dynamics, and leadership. Spoiler alert: most wellness programs are missing the mark completely.
Workplace wellness doesn’t start with nap pods or smoothie bars—it starts with people feeling seen, heard, and valued. If you’re a leader, this episode is your wake-up call. If you’re not a leader, it’s your permission to want more than burnout and survival.
