Not Just His Plus One

In this powerful and deeply vulnerable episode of Not Just His Plus One, I’m joined by Nathalie Rajic - the founder of Her Way, a platform helping women find clarity, courage, and their own definition of success.

Before creating Her Way, Nathalie faced a dark chapter: an abusive relationship that left her literally on the ground.

Piece by piece, she rebuilt her life, reclaimed her identity, and rose into the woman and leader she is today.

We talk about:

• Surviving abuse and the slow process of healing

• Losing yourself and finding the courage to trust again

• Identity, self-abandonment, and the quiet work of rebuilding

• Creating Her Way and helping other women rise without armor

  
  

This episode is a raw, honest roadmap for anyone starting over after heartbreak or trauma and a reminder that your next chapter can be stronger, softer, and entirely your own.

Let's grow and glow together.

In this episode of Not Just His Plus One, I sit down with Julia Gao Miller to uncover the story behind her rise from MuayThai fighter to six-figure agency owner with over 300K followers.

But this conversation goes far deeper than business growth. Julia opens up about the battles no one sees - the depressionthat followed her from the U.S. to Thailand, the cycles of binge eating, and the silent breakdowns behind the highlight reel.

We talk about:

·      Dropping out of college, family disapproval, andbecoming the “black sheep”

·      Fighting in the ring while secretly fightingherself

·      Depression, binge eating, and the tools thathelped her heal

·      Building 300K followers and a thriving agencyentirely from her phone

·      Why reinvention and intuition, not hustle, are her greatest strategies

This episode is for the woman who feels like she’s fighting quiet battles while building her future. The one learning that success isn’t about perfection, it’s about choosing yourself, again and again.

Let's glow and grow together.

This is a story. A story of not belonging. Of losing your voice, maybe even your identity...

And slowly rebuilding yourself from the ground up. It’s my story. The journey I had to go through to become the woman I am now. I share how I went from being the “perfect girl” who stayed quiet, to finally reclaiming my voice, walking away from what wasn’t mine and building a life that actually feels like me.

This is about the pivots. The pain. The freedom. And what it really takes to create a life that feels like yours. If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t belong… If you were told you’re too much, too loud, yet somehow not enough… This is for you.
