Leah Mitchell helps unapologetically successful women also be shamelessly loved by a heartful masculine leader. After having disappointing experiences in love herself, she took the lessons she learned, the tools she gained, and turned that journey into a successful business helping other women attract the partner they want. 

She leans in hard to the science of attraction while acknowledging that love is not rational at times. Her unique perspective on match matching and dating is something you will want to hear. No matter where you are in your love journey, there are tools Leah shares that can be used in everyday life and applied to friendships or even business relationships. We could have chatted for hours! (We kept chatting even after recording because we just connected!).

Hey Hey Friends. Happy New Year! We have a few more epsiodes in season one and Im so thankful to be back behind the mic for a bit. For this espidoe, set aside a bit more time, it will be worth it. 

Set aside some time for this longer-than-usual episode. It is worth it. 

Life is short and marriages can be too. JoAnn Fawcett just ended marriage number 7 and has lots of stories to share. There are so many life lessons JoAnn shares with us, not only when it to comes to marriage, but when it comes to personal growth. She is candid about the things that did not work out and speaks with such lightness. There are some dark moments, funny moments, and overall fascinating stories that kept me wanting more. 

JoAnn is now a speaker and author and overall pretty cool lady. 

Stick around for the details of marriage number 7...it is the longest of JoAnn's marriages and also the most....interesting.

It's hard to explain the connection you have with teammates, especially college teammates you spend years of your life with working together toward a common goal. Emily and I will always be connected, even when our busy lives keep us from connecting as much as we both would like. In this episode, we talk about our former athlete years, how it has impacted us as adults, and the adjustments we have to make as we get older when it comes to our health. Emily shares her health journey with us and discusses how learning she has Hashimoto's has changed the way she takes care of herself. This episode has so many relateable topics, not just for former athletes, but for busy moms, working parents, and those struggling to figure out how to be on top of their health.

Emily candidly shares her health journey. While listening it is important to remember that Emily and I are not medical professionals, but are sharing our insights into our own experiences with health. The message really is consult your doctor, do research, ask questions, and get to know what your body needs. 

Enjoy.

Taking time for yourself does not always have to look like a spa day, a shopping trip, or even a vacation. Sometimes taking time for yourself is just taking a moment or two to breathe and shut out the noise. Prioritizing mental health is more important now than ever and finding the tools that you need to be the best version of you is critical. 

Michelle Pettengill, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker aka Mental Health Therapist! She focuses her work on supporting adult individuals with nutrition for mental health, and self-care for daily anxieties/stressors, in addition to providing couples with a wellness check-up! During the pandemic, she really fine-tuned her private practice to focus on the things we tend to let go of when there is chaos, nutrition and self-care. She has so many tools to offer her clients and her calming nature when she speaks is addicting. I learned so much and had a blast. Enjoy.

The theme of this episode really landed on just being true to yourself, doing what makes you happy, and saying “eff it” to fear of making big life changes. Kendall Robowski left her career as a teacher to build an interior design business that would allow her more flexibility to spend time with her family, but also to focus on her individual goals. During the pandemic, she committed to move her body more and now she is competing with top athletes regularly. She doesn’t concern herself with the opinions others have of her, surrounds herself with a crew of doers and will continue to prioritize herself and her goals so she can be the best version of herself for her family.

I can’t wait to see what 2024 Kendall has to show the world. I'm here for it. (Note, I had trouble cutting this episode down because I just loved every little bit of it.).

Hey Hey Friends.

Getting married is often the result of falling in love, but getting married is actually a legally binding decision that can have all sorts of consequences and benefits that you may not even understand. Would you enter a business relationship without a contract? Then why are so many people entering marriages without one? Premarital Agreements should be a conversation for everyone. This doesn’t mean you have to sign one before walking down the aisle, but understanding the law and implications in the event of the divorce could help aid discussions during marriage….So why not?

Lydia Hsu, Esq. is an amazing family law attorney, who stresses the importance of educating her clients not only before marriage, but during the divorce process. She approaches cases with compassion and makes sure he clients know there is a better way to navigate the legal complexities of marriage and divorce. 

Hey Hey Friends.

It is appropriate and acceptable to take the time to grieve the end of something you thought would be forever. As you navigate the divorce process, it is important to keep a perspective on what you can control and how to best find the path out of your divorce. Too often people choose messy litigation because they feel like that is the only way to protect themselves and make the other side “pay.” Well our guest, Gabrielle Hartley, can tell you that no one wins in divorce. But you can find a way to be Better Apart. 

Gabrielle is an attorney, mediator, author, and one of the biggest driving forces in the positive Divorce Movement. She is my personal mentor and someone I just adore. Enjoy!

Hey Hey Friends.

Sat down with my Husband, Nick Pagan, back in August 2021 (right before we found out we were pregnant with our daughter Bellamy!). Nick is always up for anything and he did not hesitate to support this new adventure of mine. We chat about our marriage dynamic, communication, and interests.  Enjoy!
