Aleasha shares her journey from being a “natural” in corporate sales to creating a framework that helps entrepreneurs sell without scripts, sleaze, or forcing uncomfortable conversations.

They talk about:🧠 Why starting with “who” matters more than starting with “why”👨‍👧‍👦 What being a single dad taught him about real leadership📈 Why he’s never met a truly successful solopreneur—and what he recommends instead🧰 How principles like radical candor, ownership, and mission-driven teams create long-term success

In this honest and inspiring episode of Entrepreneurs Gone Wild, Sue sits down with Janna to talk about facing fears, blowing up comfort zones (sometimes literally), building confidence after setbacks, and why entrepreneurship isn’t just for the young.

They also talk about how nature, movement, and mindset shape Janna’s daily rhythm—and how she’s channeling decades of personal growth into her new mission: helping people “slay their sugar monsters.”

Sue Anderson welcomes Shari Grigsby to Entrepreneurs Gone Wild for a conversation about what really happens when you stop forcing everything, start connecting to your body, and embrace your feminine energy. Shari shares her winding path through network marketing, coaching, and marriage struggles—and how one pivot changed everything.

They dig into what feminine energy actually is (and isn’t), why so many high-achieving women are burned out, and how daily rituals, community, and time outside can help women reconnect to their radiance. Shari explains her unique approach to coaching that goes beyond mindset into embodiment, intimacy, and personal sovereignty.

Whether you’re a business owner, a mom, or just someone feeling disconnected and overextended—this episode will have you rethinking how you’ve been moving through the world.
