What if your business strategy included… tarot cards?

In this episode, JD Rose is back to show us how to bring a little magic into our marketing and leadership. From building a "tarot board of directors" to pulling spreads for business clarity, JD shares how the cards can unlock creativity, boost visibility, and keep you aligned with your vision.

This conversation was so much fun and I learned so much--I'm really excited for you to dive in!

What if tarot wasn't about predicting the future, but about deeply understanding the present?

In this episode, I have a fun and informative conversation with financial well-being coach, JD Rose. She helps us explore tarot as a powerful tool for self-reflection and personal growth. We unpack the meaning of 2025's card of the year—The Hermit—and what it invites us to explore collectively and individually.

From the historical roots of tarot to the theme of the "nines," JD shares how the cards offer grounded guidance for navigating mental, emotional, and physical challenges. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, turn inward, and trust your inner wisdom.

BONUS! Thursday I'm dropping a short episode where JD teaches us some ways to use the tarot in our business! Keep your eyes out for that!

Today I have a crucial conversation with Dr. Dee Frayne to discuss the importance of values-based integrity, influence, and impact in leadership. Dee champions feminist leaders, helping them to embody their values, avoid burnout, and lead with compassion and integrity. She contrasts "power with" versus "power over" leadership--a model of power that is something still so rare in our culture, yet is so imperative in creating the just world we desire. Showing up in today's business landscape with integrity is more important than ever--Dee walks us through her three pillars of Integrity, Influence, and Impact to help guide us. We all want to know what to do with our work during these times and it is important to remember that sustainable change requires rest, joy, and mutual aid. Dee is here to guide leaders in creating a feminist future!

In this electrifying episode I welcome back the dynamic Dr. Dee Frayne—professional change-maker and disruptive leadership strategist. Together, we dive deep into the pressing need for feminist leaders to reclaim their power and influence in today's rapidly changing world.

As the backdrop of social inequality and systemic oppression grows louder, Dr. Dee shares her transformative framework, built on three essential pillars: values-based integrity, influence, and impact. She passionately articulates how aligning personal values with business practices can empower solopreneurs and change-makers to not only thrive but also catalyze meaningful change in their communities.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that now, more than ever, our work matters. Dee emphasizes the importance of embodying kindness, compassion, and joy as we navigate the often turbulent waters of activism. You are going to walk away feeling inspired and equipped with the tools to foster a collaborative and loving environment, both within yourself and your business practices.

Don't miss this engaging dialogue that encourages you to step into your power, embrace pleasure, and plant the seeds for a brighter, more equitable future—because the world desperately needs your unique voice and contributions. Tune in to discover how you can be the change you wish to see, all while maintaining your well-being in an often demanding landscape.

I have pushed the unpause button (unpushed the pause button?) and hit play again! Happy New Year.

In this episode I let you know what's been going on for me in the past two years--long, dark, night of the soul stuff--and how I can feel I'm entering a season of rebirth. And it feels so freaking good.

I also reflect on Trump's first term and what this next term might mean for us. Related to all this, I share about a download I received (I'm letting my Woo Flag fly!) about bringing women together the weekend after the inauguration.

I have created the Resistance Retreat and I tell you a little bit about it but if you wish to know more, click the link below.

Sending you all so much love. I hope you are safe--mentally, physically, and emotionally. I'd love to hear from you (DM me on Insta)! I'm looking forward to bringing so much more in 2025 xo

Weeks ago, I invited Kari Morin and Lisa Callahan from The Things We Know podcast to join me for a conversation about misogyny, inspired by an episode they did on the topic. Our conversation was scheduled for Thursday, November 7th, two days after the election. We knew misogyny would still be around – but we hoped we'd be celebrating a breakthrough, perhaps even the election of our nation's first female president, and a woman of color at that! Alas, as you know, that was not the case.

We came to the call with grief, sadness, anger, and fear. We don't have all the answers right now. But we know this: COMING TOGETHER matters. Join us for this candid conversation as we grapple with the why and the how of it all and try to find hope and connection amidst the uncertainty.

Entrepreneurship gives freedom and opportunity to so many people. As women, moms, neurodivergents, people who can't do a traditional 9 - 5 job, creatives, and anyone who doesn't fit the cookie cutter mold, entrepreneurship offers us so much potential.

AND--entrepreneurship affects our mental health in specific ways that "regular" jobs don't.

And yet--we all fall prey to the glamorized stories of success, laying on the beach sipping cocktails while the money rolls in...and so we hide the stress, anxiety and depression and shame ourselves for having those feelings because we have to be Leaders and Experts and present a face of joy and confidence and Success.

We can really do a number on ourselves.

But Shulamit is passionate about mitigating the entrepreneurial mental health crisis. She knows that she can preserve your peace of mind as you ride the emotional rollercoaster of running a business. There's such an incredible relief in simply admitting this shit is HARD!

Talking about our mental health is a powerful way for us to do business differently--discussing mental heal is absolutely a form of activism! I'm so excited for you to listen to this episode!

Please subscribe, review, and share!! Help spread the word so we can change the world!

I'm pretty sure you're going to agree that Megan is AWESOME. And yes, she seriously walks us through HOW to use story in marketing and why that is effective--more so than any other guest I've had on the podcast. Thank you, Megan!

But we also talk about soooooo many other juicy things. We dig into the thing we see often--people talking about income in order to sell their programs. We look at Motherhood and Being a Business Owner and patriarchal messaging we get around that. And we continue the conversation I love to have with everyone--how we actually mimic (and therefore reinforce) the patriarchy and other systems of injustice! Ugh. We don't know we are doing it because we know what we know and we don't know what we don't know--BUT YOU ARE HERE LEARNING WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW AND THAT IS SO FREAKING AWESOME AND I LOVE YOU! I can't do this without you and it would be really lovely if you took a moment to subscribe, review, and share that would truly be awesome!

On paper, Beth Knight was incredibly successful. She was an ex-pat living in London, working a tech job, and making excellent money. Her job and income gave her prestige. It really was the kind of life that our culture tells us is exactly the life we should all strive for and that will make us HAPPY! Success! Money! Instead...in her own words, "I was dying inside. I just hated myself."

When COVID hit, she was forced to sit still for the first time in her life--and the self-reflection that came with that changed everything. She enrolled in coaching programs and got into therapy. A graduate from art school, Beth picked up her brushes and paint and started to paint the truth of who she is.

It started with a painting of her crying--not just any crying, but the deep deep crying of a breakdown. She shared it on instagram--a place that she had always used to show people how busy she was and all the cool things she was doing. This was her, raw, and vulnerable. And people loved it. And that opened a door for her to walk through as she continued her personal journey. I can't wait for you to listen to this episode and hear the rest of her incredible story!!

If you're heading to the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh she will be there with her show, Who Told You to Be Small.
