Savvy Sisters & Cocktail Conversations episodes

  • The Woman They See… Versus the Woman You Are
    That woman who looks like she has all her shit together? Yeah…you might not know the half of it.
    Recorded live at The Edit by Elaine Turner during a Sip & Shop benefiting Power of the Purse, the annual event hosted by The Women’s Resource, Julie & Yvonne talk comparison, judgment, fabulous purses—and the stories we make up about women based on what we see.
    Because polished doesn’t mean problem-free.
    This one is about getting curious instead of judging, dropping the mean-girl shit, and remembering: we never really know what another woman is carrying.

  • Season 3: We Had Some Shit to Unpack
    Season 3 was basically one long intervention for accomplished women.
    In this episode we unpacked old identities, over-functioning, self-doubt, visibility, busy bullshit—and our complicated relationship with the word success.
    So for our Season 3 finale, we’re looking back at the biggest truth bombs, what we’ve learned ourselves, and one question for your next chapter:
    What do you need to release, trust, and redefine?
    Because maybe you don’t need to become more. Maybe it’s time to leave some shit behind.

  • Your Inner Critic is Drunk-Stop Letting Her Drive!
    Your inner critic has opinions — loud ones. She thinks you’re too much, not enough, unqualified, behind, and one bad decision away from ruining your entire life… but girl, she’s drunk.
    In this episode, Julie and Yvonne break down why that inner voice feels so convincing, how she weaponizes old evidence, and why we keep handing her the keys. They unpack the psychology behind imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and fear disguised as “responsibility,” and offer practical shifts to put your values, purpose, and future self back in the driver’s seat.
    If you’re ready to quiet the noise and lead with clarity, confidence, and truth — buckle up.

  • Your Intuition Called. Are You Listening?
    What if your next move doesn’t require another spreadsheet, five-year plan, or perfectly logical answer?
    In this episode, Julie & Yvonne get into the spiritual side of success—intuition, energy, faith, purpose, and those little whispers we’re really good at ignoring.
    Because success can look damn good on paper and still not feel right.
    Sometimes the next level isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about listening deeper—and trusting what you already know.

  • The Joy List: What We’re Into Right Now
    In this SSCC episode, Julie & Yvonne are sharing what’s filling their joy cups right now—from podcasts that make them laugh and think, to binge-worthy shows, favorite cocktails, and the little things that make life more fun.
    Because becoming your best self isn’t only about growth, goals, and accomplishment. Sometimes it’s about laughing harder, staying curious, sipping something you love, and actually enjoying the life you’re building.

  • The Invisible Weight Women Carry
    In this Savvy Sisters & Cocktail Conversations episode, Julie & Yvonne unpack the invisible weight so many women carry—the mental load, emotional labor, expectations, work, family, and everyone else’s problems.
    They get into why overwhelm can become part of our identity, why asking for help can feel so hard, and how to start deciding what is—and isn’t—yours to carry.
    Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is put something down.

  • The Art of Getting Unstuck
    Women don’t get stuck because we’re unmotivated — we get stuck because fear, perfectionism, regret, and old identity quietly run the show.
    In this episode, Julie and Yvonne break down the real reasons brilliant women freeze, why waiting for certainty keeps you looping, and how perfectionism disguises itself as “being responsible.” They also unpack the power of having a North Star — a clear anchor for your values and direction — so your decisions stop coming from old identity and start coming from alignment.
    Momentum begins with one aligned decision and one simple action. If you’re ready to move toward the woman you’re becoming, this episode is your turning point.

  • Still Their Daughter, Now Their Caregiver
    In this SSCC episode, Julie & Yvonne get real about the role nobody prepares us for: caring for aging parents while still managing careers, families, relationships—and ourselves.
    From role reversal and family dynamics to guilt, anticipatory grief, asking for help, and learning to simply be present, this conversation is a reminder that you don’t have to navigate this season perfectly.

  • Before You Decide Who She Is.
    In this SSCC episode, Julie & Yvonne unpack the stories we create about other women—whether we’ve never met them, just met them, or have known them for years.
    From confidence and appearance to social media posts and everyday behavior, we can quickly turn an observation into an assumption about who she is or what she intended.
    But what if the story isn’t true? This conversation challenges us to separate facts from assumptions, recognize our own triggers, and replace judgment with curiosity. Because the greatest gift we can give another woman is the chance to be known instead of assumed. After all, that’s what sisterhood is all about!

  • Metacognition-Your Thoughts Aren’t Facts
    If you’ve ever believed a thought just because it showed up in your mind… well, this episode is your wake‑up call. Julie and Yvonne break down metacognition — the grown‑woman power move of thinking about your thinking — and why it’s the secret sauce behind better leadership, better decisions, and a better relationship with yourself. They expose how old stories, mental shortcuts, and unchecked thoughts run your life on autopilot… and they teach you how to pause, question, and flip the script.
    This is where you stop believing every thought and start owning the ones that actually serve you.
