Self StartHER

In this final episode of Self StartHER (for now), the roles are reversed.

Megan is interviewed by mentor and coach Teresa Heath-Wareing for an honest conversation about the podcast, the journey, and the decision to press pause after 200 episodes.

Together, they reflect on:

• Why the podcast began before Megan ever had a business

• Getting laid off while pregnant and how the podcast became a lifeline

• What 180+ interviews taught her about confidence, imposter syndrome, and messy action

• Why loving something doesn’t always mean continuing it

• Choosing time, family, and alignment in this season of life

• What this pause really means and what’s coming next

This episode isn’t a goodbye.
It’s a pause. A breath. A shift.

If you’ve ever felt called to let go of something that once fit or needed permission to evolve, this conversation is for you.

There are 200 episodes of Self StartHER available anytime...and the community continues!

After years of building, experimenting, and pouring into other women’s businesses, I realized something powerful—I'vebeen coaching all along.

In this honest episode of Self StartHER, I open up about what finally pushed me to step fully into coaching, the fears and excuses that held me back, and how I'm simplifying everything to focus on connection, clarity, and impact.

• What it really looks like to pivot with purpose (and not guilt).

• How to start taking aligned action—even when you don’t feel ready.

• Why business should begin with real conversations, not complicated strategies.

And, for the first time ever, I'm is opening three private coaching spots for women ready to build a business that fits their life.
