Welcome back to On The Real! After a long hiatus since May 2023, we're BAACK!! In this reboot episode, I reflect on my healing journey, entrepreneurial evolution, and why it's time to embrace fun and authenticity in 2025.

From hitting rock bottom to discovering manifestation and building a life and business that aligns with my values this is dripping with vulnerability *gulp*.

Coming to On The Real: real, raw conversations about life, business, the witchy woo, and everything in between.

We all wear masks in this life, and in this episode I am taking off my mask in a way.... sharing details about my disordered eating, losing the family I thought I had, and how I am stepping into the flames of fear to shed the masks that - though I believed were protecting me - were keeping me stuck.

Introducing our newest podcast guest... Michaela Breci! Michaela has been in the hair industry for almost 20 years and knows a thing or two about owning a business, creating a healthy work environment... you name it!

Today we're getting deep and sharing our experiences of dropping our ego for the sake of GROWTH. For a lot of people, evolving into your next-level self creates a fear of losing people, clients and opportunities. We're here to talk about letting go of our attachments / egos and shifting into a mindset of "fear is my fuel!"

We just hosted our March IRL Certification Retreat in beautiful Park City, Utah and I almostttttt have no words...I said almost! This IRL ended up being different than any other we've had in the past, each and every woman who was at IRL wanted to be there for their personal transformation, this was definitely a unique IRL and it was very aligned to where I have been called. I'll get into the details of what went down each day as well as all the behind the scenes during this magical mind, body, soul IRL experience! You'll also get a sneak peak into the new Transcend Retreat!

We have one of my very good friends and DCA Certified Coach, Jalynn Schroeder, on the podcast today talking about her private certification experience! Jalynn has a network marketing business where she coaches a lot of women and funnily enough, coaching was one of her biggest insecurities. But Jalynn is one of those amazing people who likes to put herself in insanely uncomfortable situations for the sake of growth, so she dove straight in and didn't wait until spring for the next IRL retreat to become certified. She'll share alllll about how she created awareness in her coaching and how it not only helped her in her business, but also in her personal life with het kids!
