Defining Moments episodes

  • Danielle Shoots | Bringing the Real You to Work
    There’s no one-and-done course that can teach you to be a great leader. It requires a willingness to learn and improve every single day. That’s no small task, which is why Danielle Shoots created Daily Boss Up.
    Subscribers to Daily Boss Up receive inspirational quotes, prompts and constructive homework on their phones every morning. It’s based on Danielle’s experiences leading teams, which started early — when she was just in her mid-20s.
    In this episode, Danielle talks about learning to lead at work and home, why being authentic with your colleagues is important, and how writing about her anxiety led her to create a daily dose of advice for aspiring leaders.

  • Sasha Rowe | Trusting Your Vision
    The way we think about work/home balance is evolving rapidly in the era of coronavirus. But entrepreneur Sasha Rowe foresaw the switch to online work way back in 2015 (and before the pandemic) when she founded virtual assistant business Rivvly.
    After Sasha had her son, she decided not to go back to her job in corporate finance. But after three days at home, she realized she needed an intellectual challenge — and that there must be other people like her, who couldn’t work in an office but still had skills to offer.
    In this episode, Sasha explains how Rivvly empowers people to work in a way that suits them, why virtual assistants are more productive than office workers, and the importance of holding onto your vision.

  • Jodi Brandon | How to Finally Write That Book
    Being an entrepreneur requires more than business instinct: You need creativity too. Word nerd, editor and publisher Jodi Brandon helps people channel theirs into books.
    Jodi always knew she wanted to work with words — but she also had “the entrepreneur bug.”
    In this episode, Jodi talks about guiding entrepreneurs through the tears and triumphs of writing, publishing and marketing their books, and how she navigated returning to work after taking two years off to care for her dying mom.

  • Sandy Abrams | Shifting Your Day From Chaos to Calm
    Who you know can make up for what you don’t know in business. That personal touch served Sandy Abrams well when she started her company, Moisture Jamzz, in 1993.
    Sandy’s idea for moisturizing gloves wasn’t new, but she was convinced she could improve on the existing product. The trouble was, she had no experience in business or the textile industry.
    In this episode, Sandy explains how her people skills helped her get her foot in the door, and how she’s using her experiences to guide other entrepreneurs through challenges and stress.

  • Danielle Rocco | Finding Success by Leaning Into Strengths
    Controlling your destiny is one of the great promises of entrepreneurship. But getting there isn’t easy.
    Just ask Dani Rocco, a relationship expert for members of the military. These days, Dani focuses on her documentary work — aimed at helping veterans — but her path to “serving the ones who have served us” wasn’t a linear one.
    In this episode, Dani shares how challenges at the family business and a serious car accident helped her learn major lessons and change her career trajectory.
