#327: If you want 2026 to feel different — clearer, more aligned, less like you’re holding your breath — you’re going to have to break a few rules. Especially the quiet ones you’ve been following without realizing it.

In this solo episode, we’re kicking off the year by tossing out the performative resolutions and getting honest about the unspoken rulebook that’s been running your life. You’re not behind. You’re not stuck. But you might still be living by stories, standards, and timelines that were never yours to begin with.

This is about rewriting those scripts — and choosing yourself more boldly than you ever have before.

In This Episode:

• The invisible rules keeping you small — and how to spot them
• Why being “the good girl” is blocking your growth
• The problem with playing it safe (and how to build risk tolerance)
• What to do with the “I should be further by now” spiral
• The exact rules I broke in 2025 — and how they changed everything
• The difference between operating from your past vs. your future self
• A 3-step strategy to build a year that feels lucky
• How to take bold action without burning yourself out
• Why rebellion can be soft, focused, and wildly effective
• The rules I’m leaving behind this year — and what I’m replacing them with

You’re not here to play by invisible rules anymore. You’re here to design something intentional — and this is where that begins.

#326: You don't have to play fair to win — you just have to play like you know who you are.

This week, we’re re-airing a conversation that’s packed with big energy, boss-level insight, and the kind of clarity that only comes from betting on yourself — again and again.

Tricia Lee is a serial entrepreneur, luxury real estate broker, and breakout star of Owning Manhattan on Netflix. But before the show, before the million-dollar listings, and long before she was mentoring the next generation — she was figuring it out like the rest of us: building businesses, walking away from things that weren’t working, and learning how to stop shrinking her magic to make other people comfortable.

If you're in a season of transition, ready to quit something (or everything), or just need a little reminder of how powerful you already are — this one’s for you.

In This Episode:

• The real reason Tricia left corporate America — and how she used anger to fuel her glow-up
• Knowing the difference between a growth challenge and pure chaos (and why perseverance isn’t always the flex)
• What to do when you're the most prepared and the most underestimated person in the room
• The truth about pivoting: how Tricia went from beauty entrepreneur to top NYC real estate broker
• Mental toughness, mindset shifts, and why being your biggest fan isn’t arrogance — it’s freedom
• How to show up as that version of you, even when you’re still building
• Advice for women who’ve been conditioned to come in last — and are done with it

This is the kind of conversation that makes you sit taller. Save it. Revisit it. Share it with the friend who needs a nudge to take up more space.

#324: If you've ever wondered what it really takes to build a multimillion-dollar brand from scratch — beyond the polished Instagram posts and the "overnight success" stories — this conversation is for you. Today I'm sitting down with Siff Haider, co-founder of Arrae and host of the Dream Bigger podcast, who turned wedding savings into a $100M wellness empire while keeping her sanity, her marriage, and her authenticity intact.

Siff gets refreshingly real about the unglamorous early days: bootstrapping, sounding like "two little bitches" on investor calls (her dad's words, not mine), and sweating through her first podcast recording. She shares the mindset shifts that helped her step into her power, why she treats customers like influencers, and how she built a team of 33 people who care as deeply as she does.

This episode is for you if:

• You're building something and terrified of looking cringe
• You're trying to figure out when to take funding (and how much)
• You want to understand how to scale without losing your soul
• You're navigating the balance between data and intuition as a founder
• You're curious about building a personal brand that's bigger than your business

If you enjoyed this episode, leave us five stars — I heard that if you rate the show five stars, something lucky happens. Test that theory, and make sure you're subscribed on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube. See you next week!

#323: Nothing is more impactful to our ability as women to create our own luck than the journey of motherhood—how we embark on it, and when. That's why I sat down with Dr. Catha Fischer, reproductive endocrinologist and Medical Director at Spring Fertility, for this critical bonus episode to demystify reproductive health, fertility, and the power of reproductive autonomy. 

We dive into what every woman in her 20s and 30s needs to know, from understanding your menstrual cycle (which Dr. Fischer calls your "fifth vital sign") to the truth about how birth control impacts your fertility, and what egg freezing actually entails. This is an honest, judgment-free conversation about removing the shame around fertility and making informed, empowered choices for your future.

This episode is for you if:

• You want to understand your reproductive options regardless of your relationship status.
• You're on hormonal birth control and are curious about what's *really* happening with your natural menstrual cycle.
• You've been frustrated by the shame and secrecy surrounding fertility struggles or feel like you're "running out of time."
• You want a factual breakdown of the egg freezing process, including pricing, and outcome data.
• You're having a hard time getting your questions about reproductive health answered and are seeking patient-centered care.

#322: Sometimes the biggest transformations happen not when everything changes around you, but when you finally shift how you show up. In this solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the internal work that led to one of the most profound shifts I've ever experienced — and why people keep telling me my energy feels completely different.

I'm sharing the honest story of what most of this year really looked like behind the scenes (spoiler: it wasn't what you saw on social media), the exact daily practices that changed everything for me over the summer, and why finally feeling content has nothing to do with checking boxes or hitting milestones.

This episode is for you if:

• You're doing all the "right things" but still feel like something's missing
• You're tired of feeling like you're grasping for the next achievement to feel whole
• You're ready to shift your energy but don't know where to start
• You want to understand what manifestation actually looks like in practice
• You're struggling with the gap between how your life looks and how it feels

I talk about…

• Why going full-time with the podcast in 2024 brought up more triggers than I expected
• What it was like to have everything feel hard during the months that looked the most successful from the outside
• My exact daily manifestation practice
• How mirror work went from incredibly uncomfortable to one of my most powerful tools
• Why the manifestations I wanted didn't come exactly when or how I expected, but something better happened instead
• Why feeling content doesn't mean you stop being ambitious
• The real prize of manifestation work

#321: If you've ever felt like you had to choose between the beauty trends you love and the ones that were "meant for you," this conversation will feel like permission to explore it all. Today I'm sitting down with Darcei Giles — the award-winning content creator who's been pioneering inclusivity in beauty since before it was an industry buzzword.

Darcei shares her journey from making webcam videos in 2010 to becoming a bridge between Korean beauty innovation and Black beauty consumers. She opens up about the viral series that changed everything, the moment a brand actually listened to her feedback, and why she's spent over a decade refusing to delete her early content.

This episode is for you if:

• You're navigating spaces where you don't see yourself reflected
• You're curious about what real brand inclusivity looks like behind the scenes
• You want to understand how to build longevity in a constantly changing industry

We talk about…

• How a lighthearted video concept became a movement that gave thousands of Black women permission to experiment
• The real reason Korean beauty brands are getting inclusivity right (and what American brands can learn)
• Why Darcei made three TikToks a day for 90 days straight — and gained 100K followers
• What happened when she told a foundation brand "call me" and they actually did
• The difference between creating 30 shades and creating 30 good shades
• Going into the lab to create foundation shades that had never existed before
• Why she keeps her earliest videos up despite the cringe factor
• What it takes to stay relevant for 15 years without losing yourself
• Her plans to merge Korean skincare innovation with Black beauty needs in her own future brand

#320: What if there’s less standing between you and your dream life than you think? If you've ever caught yourself thinking "that's too big of a dream," this episode is going to completely shift how you see what's possible for your life.

Today I'm sitting down with Olivia Rose Thomas — manifestation coach, co-host of Inspired Delusions, and someone who went from being skeptical of the idea of manifesting to completely transforming her life through it. Olivia breaks down the neuroscience behind why getting your hopes up is the most powerful thing you can do, why your 95% subconscious mind might be sabotaging what you want, and how to rewire your brain to expect good things.

This isn't just woo-woo talk — Olivia connects quantum physics, nervous system regulation, and brain science to explain why manifestation actually works. She shares how she manifested her dream apartment the day after putting it on her vision board, why being audacious about your goals gives your brain more dopamine and motivation, and the exact tools that help you feel safe enough to dream bigger than you ever thought possible.

This episode is for you if:

• You're tired of playing it safe and ready to let yourself receive what you actually want
• You've tried manifesting before and felt like it didn't work
• You want to understand the science behind why your thoughts literally shape your reality
• You're ready to stop being realistic and start being audacious

We talk about…

• The moment Olivia went from manifestation skeptic to believer — and manifested her exact dream living situation
• Why getting your hopes up is actually less painful than believing nothing is possible
• The study that proves we only see what we're looking for (and how to use this to your advantage)
• What your subconscious mind really is and why 95% of your thoughts are working against you without you knowing it
• The three R's formula: Recognize, Rewire, Regulate — and how to actually change your beliefs
• Why EFT tapping calms your nervous system and clears the "clouds" blocking your natural state of worthiness
• How to use subliminals safely (and why creating your own with your voice works faster)
• Why acting "as if" and changing your identity is more powerful than any manifestation ritual
• Why being realistic is the fastest road to mediocrity — and what to do instead
• How to feel safe enough in your nervous system to actually let yourself hope for more

#319: If you've ever lost your spark — that fire that used to drive you — and wondered if it would ever come back, this conversation is for you. Today I’m welcoming Rachel Rodgers back to the podcast. You know Rachel as the founder and CEO of Hello Seven, bestselling author, and someone who's living proof that audacious goals are within our reach.

Rachel gets incredibly honest about a period of deep grief that nearly derailed her eight-figure business, how community pulled her back to her center, and the casual question in Greece that sparked a 100-million-dollar plan. She shares why 10X-ing isn't about doing more (it's actually about doing less), how to use what you already have to create something new, and why setting small goals keeps us stuck.

This episode is for you if:

• You're ready to stop playing small and set goals that actually light you up
• You’re ready to get your spark back after a period of being off your game
• You want to understand what it really takes to 10X your focus and impact

We talk about…

• How Rachel turned a podcast into a TV show by following her creative instincts
• The six-month period of grief and depression that nearly stopped her business
• Why shame shields solutions — and the importance of community during hard times
• The casual question in Greece that sparked a 100-million-dollar business plan
• Why 10X-ing your business is actually about subtraction and editing, not addition
• How big goals wake you up in ways that 10% growth never will
• Why most people quit right before things work — and how consistency wins
• How to take stock of what you have and cook up your next move (even with nothing)
• Why Gen Z needs a completely different financial playbook than generations before them

If you've ever wondered what it really takes to scale a mission-driven business without losing yourself (or your values) along the way, this episode is for you. Today I'm joined by Beatrice Dixon, co-founder and CEO of The Honey Pot Company — the groundbreaking personal care brand that's transformed an entire industry.

Beatrice opens up about what it means to lead a company that serves millions while staying deeply connected to its purpose. She shares the real story behind turning down a $450 million offer, why choosing the right partners matters more than the biggest check, and how she's learning to balance ambition with actual rest.

This episode is for you if:

• You're building something at the intersection of abundance and integrity
• You want to understand what a partnership really looks like in business
• You're trying to figure out when to say no (even to big opportunities)

We talk about…

• How preparation creates freedom (even when plans don’t go exactly right)
• Why Beatrice turned down higher offers to protect the integrity of her company
• What founders should look for when choosing investors and partners
• Where The Honey Pot stands on its relationship with Target
• The difference between being ahead of your time and wasting energy
