  • Episode 18: Understanding and Negotiating your Worth with Ashton Keefe
    Today we have my friend Ashton on the podcast. Ashton Keefe is a chef and culinary stylist with an extensive background in media and culinary startups. She is also a skilled businesswoman who thinks about the holistic landscape of any situation she enters. Her success comes in large part from a “no money left on the table” approach and finding the point of diminishing returns. What, like it’s hard?
    But of course, she's also one of us - an intuitive. I LOVE her approach to Manifestation that has New York-ified the “fish in the sea” turn of phrase (for the better.)
    We also discuss: 
    Learning the lesson vs putting up a boundary 
    Intuitive pricing and a supremely helpful negotiation hack
    How to think about Value exchange and reciprocation in your work
    Not everyone could (or should) manage to “move up” the ladder 
    Why “showing your work” hurts intuitives 
    Point of diminishing returns
    Being “rich and famous” vs figuring out what you actually want 
    …and more

  • Episode 16: Recalibrating to abundance after loss with Carly Catalana

    “Changing the channel” on brain waves? It might sound out there, but Carly and I bring the practice down to earth by discussing how changing her frequencies helped her navigate from fertility struggles to having two healthy, happy daughters. She also discusses the “winning” she needed at work to help her, in tandem with an energy specialist, at that pivotal time. 


    We also discuss:

    Social media breaks and their profound positive effect on our brain and mood

    Owning your Astrological design and letting those strengths direct your career 

    Allowing entrepreneurial freedom 

    or corporate structure serve what you need in your life at the time you're in them  

    The concept of a “delight journal” 

    Choosing routines (including fitness) by our Astrology

    The idea that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to our careers or healing

    A peak into brand equity conversations (including for her husband Phil’s brand, Reason)

    Making it through the peaks and valleys of success and failures  

    …and more
