The internet doesn't need more content. It needs more voice. It needs more SOUL.

It needs people who know how to tell their story in a way that moves peoploe. Because when people are moved, they create movements.

In today's episode, I'm digging into why your voice is your biggest business asset as an entrepreneur and how you can make yours stand out in a sea of AI-soaked posts and trends.

If you've been thinking about starting a Substack, writing a book, or using your voice to grow your infulence, this conversation is for you.

It's time to stop glamorizing the things that are secretly destroying you.

In this episode, I'm talking about the seemingly harmless habits, personality traits, and lifestyle choices we defend...even when they're keeping us stuck. Wine culture, exhaustion as identity, staying where it's comfortable, calling chaos passion. Many of us are telling ourselves pretty little lies about the way we're living and wonder why we're not reaching out potential.

If you're ready to explore the "aesthetic" or glamorous ways you may be subconsioculy sabotaging yourself, this one's for you.

Six months ago, I burned down my old life. I left everything I ever knew in New York City and headed to Jacksonville, Florida. For love. For a fresh start. And for the chance to meet a new version of myself. But here's what nobody tells you: the move is the easy part. The indentity shift is brutal.

In today's episode, I'm talking about the messy middle, the terrifying limbo that holds you hostage as you step into your new era. It's definitely not all sunshine and champagne, but if you navigiate it the right way, it's always, always worth it.

If you're in-between two versions of yourself right now, this one's for you.

Sometimes the hardest person to be honest with is yourself.

In this episode, I'm sharing the story of how I went from a $5,600-a-month luxury Manhattan apartment and endless freedom…to packing up my life and moving to Florida to step into the love, family, and future I didn't even know I wanted.

It's about recognizing when the version of you you've been clinging to, no matter how glamorous, independent, or accomplished, has expired. It's about ghosting the old life that no longer fits, and having the courage to step into the one that's calling you.

We'll talk about starting over, rewriting your story, and why telling yourself the truth will get you to your next era faster than anything else.

If you've been feeling the pull toward something different, something bigger, this episode is your permission slip to stop fighting it and finally own what you really want.

It's the episode you've all been waiting for…

In this raw and unfiltered conversation, Aaron and I sit down to share the full story of how we broke up (more than once), how we found our way back to each other, and how we ended up engaged.

We open up about:

• Why our relationship ended and what finally brought us back together • The healing work we both had to do • Aaron's reaction to reading about himself in my book • What dating long distance (and in our 40s) taught us about real love • The moment I knew we were ready • Our proposal story (!!) • Why men commit, "if he wanted to, he would," and all the nuance in between

PLUS: the urgent care trip for Viagra visit (yes, really lol), our blow-up fights, our mind-blowing makeup sex, the tears, the laughs, and the one moment that changed everything.

It's messy, romantic, honest and hilarious.

This is our plot twist. And we're so glad you're here for it.

Today on the show, I'm throwing it all the way back to the very first time Aaron joined me on the podcast. Before the plot twist, the champagne-soaked proposal and our second chapter.

At the time, he was my new boo (lol), and we had just started exploring what it meant to choose love with intention. We talked about punk rock values, how we approach life, art, and relationships, and honestly, listening back now hits so differently.

Whether you're new here or you've been along for the ride since the beginning… this one is special. Enjoy. 🖤

Think you're not doing enough? Welcome to the club, baby!

Even in the middle of a thriving business, bestselling books, and creative expansion, I still have moments where I spiral. Where I feel like I'm falling behind, like I should be doing more, producing more, proving more. Can you relate?

Instead of pushing harder, I've learned to reach for what I call The Celebration List – a simple but powerful way to shift my energy, anchor into my feminine power, and remember the woman I already am.

Inside this episode, we dive into:

– Why high-achieving women feel like they're always behind – How celebration can be a radical act of self-leadership – Why fullness, not force, is the strategy for your next level – How to use my Celebration List practice to realign with your highest self

This is a love letter to the version of you who's done so much – and deserves to feel it!
