What are you willing to walk away from when something that once felt right no longer does?

Sara Happ is back on A Splash More for a brand-new catch-up before we revisit one of our favorite conversations from Season One.

Since we last sat down, life has continued to evolve. Hayley catches up with Sara about what has changed, what she’s saying no to, what she’s excited to say yes to, and what she’s protecting more fiercely in this season of her life.

Then, we’re taking you back to the original conversation, “When Walking Away Becomes the Power Move.”

Sara may be best known as the founder of her namesake beauty brand, but this conversation goes far beyond business. Together, Hayley and Sara talk about identity, ambition, intuition, friendship, women supporting women, and the courage it takes to recognize when something you worked incredibly hard for may no longer be right for you.

Because growth isn't always about pushing harder or adding more. Sometimes it means trusting yourself enough to let go, change your mind, and make room for whatever comes next.

Worth Another Listen revisits some of our favorite conversations from A Splash More, with a fresh perspective on where life has taken our guests since we first sat down. A Splash More returns with brand-new episodes for Season 2 this October.

Between seasons, we’re going back to a few conversations from Season 1 that have stayed with us—the ones that made us laugh, think, feel seen, or look at something a little differently.

And there was only one place to start.

New York Times bestselling author Josie Balka was the very first guest on A Splash More. In this conversation, originally recorded with Hayley and Bailey, Josie joins us for an honest, hilarious and deeply relatable conversation about body image, confidence, self-worth and the complicated relationship so many women have with the person looking back at them in the mirror.

We talk about the pressure to look a certain way, the things we say to ourselves that we would never say to someone we love, learning to find confidence without waiting for our bodies or our lives to be “perfect,” and what it actually means to become more comfortable being yourself.

Listening back now feels a little like opening a time capsule. A Splash More has changed since this conversation, but so much of what we talked about that day still feels just as relevant.

Whether you were here from the very beginning or found us somewhere along the way, this one is Worth Another Listen.

Worth Another Listen revisits some of our favorite conversations from A Splash More, with a fresh perspective on where life has taken our guests since we first sat down. A Splash More returns with brand-new episodes for Season 2 this October.

Megan and Gretchen are partners in just about every sense of the word. They're married, former collegiate basketball players, and the founders of SandSpa—a modern wellness brand born from their belief that high-quality self-care shouldn't be reserved for special occasions.

What began as a single beachside spa has grown into a Southern California wellness collective spanning SandSpa locations, Polish nail boutiques, IV therapy through The Solution, and partnerships with hotels and resorts.

In this episode of A Splash More, Hayley sits down with Megan and Gretchen for an honest conversation about what it really looks like to build so much of your life alongside the same person.

They share how they met, fell in love, and eventually became business partners and how their backgrounds as collegiate athletes inspired an idea that would ultimately become SandSpa. We talk about taking the leap into entrepreneurship, growing a business together, navigating disagreements, and the sometimes very blurry line between being spouses and being business partners.

But the conversation goes much deeper than business.

Megan and Gretchen open up about their IVF journey and the emotional reality of trying to build the family they've dreamed about. Having gone through IVF herself, Hayley connects with them over the parts of the process that are difficult to understand until you've lived them: the hope, the waiting, the disappointment, the lack of control, and somehow finding the strength to keep going.

They also talk openly about building a family as a same-sex couple, the additional decisions and realities that can come with that journey, representation, and what it means to create spaces where people feel welcome to show up exactly as they are—a value they've intentionally woven into SandSpa as well.

In this episode:

• How Megan and Gretchen met and built a life together

What if the hardest chapter of your story became the foundation for everything you built?

In this episode of A Splash More, Hayley sits down with entrepreneur, community builder, and founder Nina Caviggiola for a heartfelt conversation about identity, resilience, motherhood, and the power of creating spaces where women truly belong.

After fleeing war in the former Yugoslavia as a young child and eventually rebuilding her life in the United States, Nina shares how those early experiences shaped her perspective on family, community, and purpose.

Together, Hayley and Nina explore what it means to build a meaningful life—from navigating entrepreneurship and motherhood to creating communities like Her Hour and Nurtura Foundation, where women feel seen, supported, and connected.

This conversation is about so much more than business. It's about belonging, resilience, and discovering that the chapters we never would have chosen often become the ones that define us.

What happens when the life you've worked so hard to build suddenly changes in an instant?

This week on A Splash More, Hayley sits down with entrepreneur, filmmaker, artist, and technology pioneer Taryn Southern for a conversation about what it really means to live well.

After being diagnosed with Stage III breast cancer, Taryn was forced to confront more than her health. She began questioning how she had been living, what success really meant, and why so many of us postpone joy while chasing achievement, productivity, and the next milestone.

Together, Hayley and Taryn explore how facing life's greatest uncertainty reshaped everything—from ambition and creativity to relationships, purpose, and the future she once imagined. They talk about learning to embrace uncertainty, finding joy without needing to justify it, and why some of life's hardest moments can become our greatest teachers.

That perspective naturally leads to one of the most surprising parts of the conversation: artificial intelligence. As someone who has spent years at the forefront of AI, Taryn shares why she believes technology shouldn't consume more of our lives—it should give us our lives back. By allowing AI to handle the tasks that drain our time and energy, we can create more space for the people we love, the experiences that fulfill us, and the simple joy of being fully present.

Whether you're navigating a major life transition, questioning what success really looks like, or wondering how to embrace new technology without losing your humanity, this episode is an invitation to rethink what it means to truly live.

When Dr. Roohi Jeelani first joined me on A Splash More, we had one of the most meaningful conversations we've ever had about fertility, IVF, pregnancy loss, and the reality that family building doesn't always happen according to plan.

Since then, both my own journey and the conversations happening among women have evolved. As I've begun navigating hormones, perimenopause, and HRT, I wanted to reconnect with Dr. Jeelani before revisiting this episode.

In this special episode, we kick things off with a brief catch-up about the questions women are asking today—from hormones and healthy aging to what's next in women's health—before replaying our original conversation about fertility, hope, and embracing the paths we don't always expect.

And don't worry...this is just the beginning. Dr. Jeelani will be back soon for an all-new conversation focused entirely on perimenopause, hormones, and healthy aging.

This week on A Splash More, Hayley sits down with Katie Lilly, founder of BÜNDA Strength + Stairs, for a conversation about entrepreneurship, community, motherhood, and the power of helping women discover their strength.

Katie shares the story behind building BÜNDA and how her vision evolved from creating a workout to creating a movement. Together, they discuss the realities of entrepreneurship, balancing ambition with family life, and the importance of building spaces where women feel supported, challenged, and connected.

A large part of the conversation also explores the science behind strength training and why so many women spent years believing it wasn't meant for them. Katie breaks down the benefits of building muscle, the misconceptions that have kept women out of the weight room, and why strength training is one of the most powerful tools for long-term health, confidence, and longevity.

This is a conversation about purpose, perseverance, community, and redefining what strength looks like for women today.
