This week, Megan sits down with the beautiful and wildly talented Robyn Cohen—a woman whose career is as unique as it is inspiring. From her early days as a professional dancer to performing as a magician’s assistant (yes, the classic “girl box jumper” 🪄), Robyn’s journey eventually led her to a seven-year run as the Pilates instructor for the Cincinnati Reds.

We talk about:

• The grit and grace behind sustaining a career in performance and movement
• What it takes to keep elite athletes performing at their peak
• How Pilates supports strength, recovery, and injury prevention
• Robyn’s philosophy of blending discipline with joy in both sport and life

Robyn now channels her passion into her stunning studio, @theritual, where she offers Thai Yoga Massage, sunbathing rituals, and hardcore Pilates—a true sanctuary for body, mind, and spirit.

Returning guest: Michael Mercer
Recorded live at: Doubt It (Covington, KY)

Entrepreneurship is full of “are you sure?” moments—aka the ones people doubt. In this live episode, we sit down with returning guest Michael Mercer to unpack everything it takes to open an eclectic, iconic neighborhood bar: the vision behind Doubt It, the risks he took, design choices that create a vibe, building a team, community partnerships, and how to keep a concept fresh long after opening night.

In this episode:

• Why “Doubt It”? Naming, narrative, and brand storytelling
• From idea → doors open: funding, permits, and the unsexy stuff no one posts about
• Designing an eclectic space that still feels curated (materials, lighting, sound)
• Menu philosophy: cocktails, standards, and training that scales
• Hiring for hospitality DNA & creating a culture that lasts
• Lessons from the first months and what Michael would do differently
• Advice for founders hearing “no” (or “I doubt it”) on repeat
