Hello to my wonderful listeners across the globe, who are STILL listening! I love to log in and see downloads happening on select content of mine that is still relevant, still useful, and still more than just a way to pass the time. I put a lot of heart and soul into the shows you've consumed so far, and there's more to come. Yes, I definitely have some revamping to do on LadyfoxEntertainment.com. The renovation has been delayed. However, the foundation of the house has always been and continues to be very much intact. The foundation of the house is me and my idea to create this show.

For those of you who don't know, I started producing and hosting podcasts back in 2013, long before it was a widespread trend and way-way before everyone and their mother had a podcast. So yeah, I've been doing this for 10 years. I was working for Altare Publishing at the time, where I recorded hundreds of shows across properties like Pandora's Box, Man Up, Attraction Code, and many others. That content helped the male subscribers gain confidence in dating and health and fitness, so I decided to take it one step further and offer helpful content across all areas of life, designed for everyone.

Developed in late 2015 and launched in early 2016, my show Nothing Off Limits (TM) became my full time job. Just over one hundred completed shows later, a new life happened. Then a death happened. Life happened again. Then, more death. And you know what? My podcast was still happening all along, living and being actively downloaded on Apple and Spotify, feeding hungry audiophiles, then and all the way to this very day.

And so, as I think about this special undertaking, I'd like to pay homage and reflect warmly on my favorite moments, my finest guests, and select excerpts from the shows that touched people the most - so far. These are the shows that I have received the most email or DM's on social about. These are the shows that have taught (and continue to teach) listeners something new. These are the shows that have helped listeners know that they aren't alone. These are the shows that have inspired and brought laughter to someone's day...or that gave them something to think about, care about, or do something about. These are the shows that continue to entertain.

The following are my personally picked top shows and topics that represent the intentional variety and overall essence of Nothing Off Limits (TM), my original, independent podcast that has been online since 2016:

H.G. Tudor - Self-proclaimed Psychopath on Spotting and Dealing With His Kind

Toniwo - Infidelity Analyst and Author on Sidepieces and The Hierarchy of Whoredom

Diego Meraviglia - Award-winning Sommelier On Why Wine is Better Than Beer

Diandra Brand - Metaphysical Healer on Energy Vampires

Rudy Sarzo - Whitesnake, Quiet Riot, and Ozzy bassist with Advice for Young Musicians

Jessica J - Dirty Talk

I thank you for listening and supporting Nothing Off Limits (TM). Until the renovation is complete, please direct any/all messages to [email protected] or find me on social.

Happy listening, learning and being entertained!

With love,

Michelle Ann Owens, Host and Creator of Nothing Off Limits (TM)

Recently, someone I know asked me what my MBTI was. I honestly couldn’t remember, as the last time I took the test, it was for a job.  I retook the free online test – takes about 10 minutes only – and I found out I’m an ENFJ. (And so is Oprah, btw!) As I dug deeper into Meyers-Briggs, I realized I had seen it on some dating profiles too, and that led to me contacting today’s guest, Daniel Speiss, to talk about MBTI's and how you can use them to improve your dating and relationship experiences.

Daniel Speiss is a dating/relationship coach who focuses on intimacy and communication. With results based coaching and the use of MBTI’s, he helps both singles and couples bring personal awareness and accountability to their world of romance.

Kevin Hong is a successful entrepreneur who doesn't take the typical route to doing, well, pretty much anything.  He grew his startup Dealflicks up to a $15M valuation out of the back of a van.  

Kevin’s been featured in CNBC, Times, Forbes, NY Times, LA Times, Xinhua News (China), Korea Times, NDR (Germany) and countless other media outlets globally. His writing has also been featured in CNBC, Forbes, Inc, HuffPost, and many more.

Most recently, Kevin became the best-selling author of The Outlier Approach: How to triumph in Your Career as a Nonconformist. If you’re someone with very few credentials trying to break into a big business of any kind – whether it’s Wall Street, Madison Avenue, Silicon Valley or Hollywood, this book is for you. And I'm sure this is no surprise, but being a nonconformist (especially in the business world) is an approach and attitude I dig. 

During our chat, Kevin shares how his childhood circumstances forced him to find alternative paths to success, including working for a network marketing company that quickly earned him $10K/month with 1500 people working under him - as a college student.

Listen to get a few big ideas from the book to get you started on your own nonconformist career journey.

For NOL listeners, we are offering a signed copy of the book to the first 10 people who respond to this episode via email.  Send a brief note to [email protected] mentioning that you heard Kevin's NOL episode, and include your mailing address. I'll let you know personally if you are one of the first 10.  If don't hear from me, you're not, but you can still get the book on Amazon here:

Stats show that three out of five people dream of writing a book.  Few follow through.  So what does it really take to turn that dream into reality?

In this special announcement from your host Michelle Ann Owens, you will be connected to an incredible resource to help you navigate.  That resource is screenwriter and author John August.  He's written successful films such as Charlie's Angels, Big Fish and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and his story will inspire you and lead you to publishing your next great body of work.

Since I opened 2017 with an interview regarding health, I thought we'd open 2018 with a topic we all love - money.

Today's guest is Megan Gorman, the Founding Partner of Chequers Financial Management, a boutique high net worth tax and financial planning firm. Chequers ensures that tax strategy serves as the cornerstone of the financial planning process (which is unusual in the industry, along with having a female founder.) In many cases, Chequers clients have come to the firm because of its reputation for strategy and premier client service. Chequers not only handles corporate clients, but also artists, athletes and more.

Prior to founding Chequers Financial, Megan worked at Goldman Sachs and BNY Mellon Wealth Management, where she provided financial planning services to high net worth families, and also served in a fiduciary capacity on large family trusts.

Megan’s expertise has seen her quoted in publications from the Wall Street Journal to The Washington Post to CNN Money.

Hey everyone and Happy New Year!

Since I usually provide a platform for others' projects and accomplishments, I decided to open the new year by doing a solo episode.  Today, it's all me.

For new listeners, I explain exactly what I contribute to the production of this show and how long I've been creating this type of content (it started way before I launched NOL...) I also share what to expect in 2018 from NOL and which episodes seemed to strike the largest listener nerve.  I'd love to know what YOUR favorite episodes of 2017 were.  Shoot me an email at [email protected].

If you're not already on my email list, please sign up at ladyfoxentertainment.com.  It only comes out when a new episode is released or there's a special announcement.

To all, may you have a healthy, happy, lovely, prosperous and memory-worthy year.

Your dedicated host,

Michelle Ann Owens

 

 

Today we’re talking about an upcoming documentary and social impact campaign covering a topic you probably wouldn’t expect to be covered – motherhood.

I never knew this myself, but mothers experience discrimination in the US, from deep-rooted assumptions about social or gender roles, for breastfeeding in public, and for not having a perfect body again after childbirth. Many women, particularly stay-at-home moms, become demoralized, feel alienated, and lose their personhood. They often lose their chance to return to their jobs.  Often, people judge them immediately when they say they are a full-time mom, assuming that they aren’t hard-working, that they aren’t intelligent or that they aren’t contributing members of society. Yet, they are molding society’s greatest assets – the next generation.

My guest is the wonderful Samantha Rife, the Director and Executive Producer of the documentary film “Reclaim Motherhood”. She will share with us her mission behind this film and the associated campaign which will target corporate HR departments as well as middle schools, high schools and universities.  You will hear examples of the struggles that mothers often face at work, with the government, and in their communities. She also shares the importance of bridging the gap between people who choose to be parents and those who choose to be childless.

Samantha is also the founder of SJR Research and for over 25 years, she has worked as a writer and researcher, and provided support for large and small projects in a wide variety of fields including History, Genealogy, Information Technology, Education, Writing/Editing, Film and Media, Communications, Marketing, Public Health/Social Services, managed Healthcare, Visual Arts, and much more. Samantha is a mother of 2 children – Joshua and Cassandra. She lives in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, with her husband Jamie.
