This week on SUPERWOMEN, I’m joined by Nayeema Raza, creator and host of the newly launched podcast Smart Girl, Dumb Questions. With a background spanning global consulting, documentary storytelling and top-charting podcasts, Nayeema decided it was time to create something entirely her own. In this episode, she shares how a childhood shaped by constant change made her comfortable with reinvention, and why staying still has always felt more foreign than starting over. 

For Nayeema, comfort has never been the goal. It’s the cue that it’s time to move on. Her path has been guided less by long-term plans and more by instinct: when something starts feeling too safe, that’s her “clue to unlock the next thing.”

She opens up about what drew her to launch a show built on curiosity, and why asking the “dumb” questions out loud matters more than ever. We talk about what it means to redefine ambition on your own terms, the pressure of being both the business and the brand, and the surprising freedom that can come from a failed milestone. Whether it was ending a long-term relationship, starting over in New York at 31, or launching a podcast from scratch, Nayeema’s path proves that reinvention isn’t just possible, it can be joyful, curious and entirely your own.

From navigating the realities of running her own show to reshaping what mastery looks like, Nayeema is creating a space where not knowing isn’t a weakness, it’s the starting point. This episode is a reminder that sometimes the smartest thing you can do is ask the question everyone else is too afraid to say out loud.

On this episode of SUPERWOMEN, I’m joined by Gail Becker, founder of Caulipower, the better-for-you brand that redefined the frozen pizza aisle and became one of the fastest-growing food startups in the U.S

After years climbing the corporate ladder, Gail realized the view at the top wasn’t what she thought it’d be. With no background in the food industry, she poured herself into solving a personal problem: finding nutritious, gluten-free food her sons with celiac disease would actually enjoy. What started with a 90-minute homemade cauliflower crust pizza recipe turned into a national sensation, earning Caulipower over $100 million in revenue within five years. We talk about building a company later in life, raising capital as a female founder, staying true to your mission, and what it means to define success on your own terms. 

Gail shares what it really felt like to walk away from the safety of a steady job, the highs and lows of starting over later in life, as well as it being what ultimately equip her for the hardships of taking on an industry you’re stranger to. We talk about the importance of admitting what you don’t know and when to ask for help. To take stock of what you’re not good at and be open to educating yourself for the better of your brand. Whether you're in a career rut, thinking about launching something new, or unsatisfied with Big Food, this conversation is your sign to bet on yourself.

This week on SUPERWOMEN, I’m joined by Rosa Li, founder and CEO of Wildwonder, the world’s first sparkling prebiotic and probiotic drink inspired by heritage tonics and California produce stands. When Rosa’s high-stress finance job left her feeling depleted and dealing with digestive issues, she looked inward and backward. Drawing from her grandmother’s traditional herbal tonics, Rosa started tinkering in her kitchen, rediscovering the power of plants, botanicals, and food as medicine.

In this episode, Rosa opens up about the early days of Wildwonder, from chasing co-packers to hand-delivering drinks door-to-door, Rosa’s entrepreneurial journey is anything but ordinary. She shares how she bootstrapped her business during the pandemic, transformed rejection into resilience, and landed on the shelves of Whole Foods, Target, and 5,000+ retailers across the U.S. Rosa also dives into the cultural influences that shaped her, what it looks like to create a mission-driven brand in a male-dominated space, and why vulnerability and resourcefulness are her secret weapons in both life and business. 

Whether you’re a founder, a foodie, or just someone figuring it out as you go, Rosa’s journey proves that success doesn’t come from waiting—it comes from showing up again and again, in spite of the noise.

On this episode of SUPERWOMEN, I sat down with Allison Ellsworth, co-founder of Poppi—the better-for-you soda brand that’s gone from tabling at the farmers’ market to one of the fastest-growing beverages in the U.S.

Allison’s journey started with a gut feeling—literally. Struggling with health issues and searching for natural remedies, she discovered the benefits of apple cider vinegar. But instead of settling for the harsh taste, she hit the kitchen and created her own fix. What followed? A Whole Foods rep at the farmers market, a “Shark Tank” deal, and a rebrand that would catapult Poppi into virality and the mainstream.

In this episode, she opens up about what it really took to scale Poppi: letting go of fear, maxing out credit cards, learning how to lead, building a brand from instinct, and saying no to “dumb money.” We talk team dynamics, viral TikToks, Super Bowl commercials, and why sometimes the boldest move is pausing everything to get the brand right. We also get into the power of believing in yourself, even when no one else sees the vision yet. After all, Allison is the self-proclaimed Chief Believe Officer. 

Whether you’re building a business or just love a good founder story, Allison’s energy, honesty, and unstoppable drive will leave you inspired—and maybe craving a can of Poppi. If you’ve ever been told “That’s not how it’s done,” this one’s for you.

This week on SUPERWOMEN, I’m joined by Dr. Tiffany Moon, board-certified anesthesiologist, entrepreneur, author, and former cast member of “The Real Housewives of Dallas,” for an honest conversation about finding perspective and building self-worth. 

In this episode, Tiffany shares some of the lessons that shaped her new book, “Joy Prescriptions,” and opens up about the power of letting go, saying no, and finding confidence outside of achievement. We discuss her incredible journey, from her unexpected leap into reality TV to launching multiple businesses. Tiffany opens up about the moment she realized success wasn’t synonymous with joy, and how that realization led her to reimagine her life. The accolades, the titles, and the “dream job” just weren’t filling up her cup the way she had imagined they would. Between launching a summit for professional women and juggling multiple businesses, she lets us in the power of using joy, not perfection, as a metric of success.

Whether she’s in the operating room, onstage at her LeadHer Summit, or at home with her twin daughters, Tiffany’s story is a reminder that life doesn’t start after reaching your professional goals—it begins when you “find worth in just being you.”

This week on SUPERWOMEN, I’m joined by my longtime friend, the host of “Top Chef Canada” and Food Network alum Eden Grinshpan, for a lively conversation on creativity in the kitchen and beyond.

You might know Eden from her time on television or her much loved cookbooks, “Eating Out Loud,” but, in this episode, she’s giving us the inside scoop on her latest creation: “Tahini Baby,” a vibrant, veggie-forward cookbook filled with bold Middle Eastern flavors and warm memories. Eden shares with us how she carved out a space for herself in the food world by staying true to her roots, embracing humor, and keeping her recipes approachable, health-conscious, and packed with flavor. We talk about the behind-the-scenes reality of cookbook creation (which takes a village) and how she found joy in the chaos of career-building, marriage, and motherhood. 

Whether you’re a seasoned home cook or a takeout enthusiast, Eden’s infectious energy and approach to life will leave you inspired to turn up the music, throw on an apron, and create something worthwhile.

This week on SUPERWOMEN, I sat down with Neha Kumar, co-founder and COO of Full Glass Wine Co., a brand acquisition and management firm that focuses on revitalizing the direct-to-consumer wine market. In an inspiring conversation, she teaches us about entrepreneurship, resilience, and redefining success on your own terms. Neha’s career began in finance and banking before she pivoted into the startup world—learning through failure and eventually building and selling companies across multiple industries.

In this episode, Neha shares why she lives by the philosophy of “burn the ships,” how working in six-month increments helps her stay focused, and how she fits her professional goals into her personal life work-life balance. “It’s all just one” when integrating family, career, and ambition into a single, meaningful whole, she says. We talk about how she found herself again through work after facing postpartum struggles and what it took to build Full Glass Wine Co. through the acquisition of seven wine brands in just 18 months. 

We get into the importance of understanding what season you’re in—whether you’re sprinting or running a marathon—and how to make it all work by letting the different parts of your life move together. Neha’s story is honest, energizing, and a reminder that you don’t need a perfect plan—just the courage to go after what you want next.

Tina has spent nearly three decades making a lasting impact on the business world, from creating her first company as a teenager to launching brands with Target, writing over 20 books—including the “Mackenzie Blue” and “Honest June” series for young women and a slate of powerful self-help and business books for adults—and now helping founders scale into the millions.

In this episode, Tina shares how she carved out a unique path, moving from trendspotting and influencer marketing (before it even had a name) to product development, publishing, and advising founders on how to build sustainable, scalable businesses. We talk about the realities of growing a business, the power of hiring the right people at the right time, and how to design a work-life harmony that actually works. Tina opens up about learning to let go of perfectionism, how to avoid burnout, and why creating moments of stillness can be the ultimate productivity hack.

On the SUPERWOMEN podcast, I’m sitting down with the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star and “Traitors” winner Dolores Catania.

As two cast members of the “Housewives” franchise, we open up about our time on the shows, and we reflect on resilience, reinvention, and what it really means to stay true to yourself—even when the world is watching.

Dolores joined “RHONJ” at a difficult time in her life and made a promise to never let the pressures of reality TV change who she was. On “Housewives,” she built a reputation for loyalty, honesty, and standing her ground, but what most people don’t see is the grit and willpower it took to get there. From getting divorced while nine months pregnant and raising her kids as a single mom, to navigating business and personal reinvention, she’s learned firsthand how to make the most of the challenges she has faced.

In this episode, Dolores gives us the scoop on her time on “The Traitors,” backing out of “RHONJ” in Season 1 and then deciding to return years later, how reality TV shaped her sense of self-worth, the toughest lessons she’s learned, and why she’s on a mission to change the conversation around menopause and women’s health.
