In this episode of She’s WELLthy, I sit down with Jaclyn Fu — co-founder and co-CEO of Pepper, the bra company inspiring small-chested women to celebrate themselves as perfectly enough.

Jaclyn’s story is a beautiful one of turning insecurity into purpose. What began as her own feelings of inadequacy grew into a movement that’s redefined the bra industry and given confidence to millions of women. We dive into how Pepper was born, the challenges of starting a product-based business with no experience, and what it takes to scale to selling over a million bras a year.

This conversation goes far beyond business. Jaclyn opens up about what she learned from a recent heartbreak, the limiting beliefs she’s had to rewire, and the spiritual awakening that changed her life. We talk about alchemizing pain into love, learning to share vulnerably online despite shame, and how spiritual practices like Kundalini and meditation helped her reconnect with her power.

We also explore what it really takes to be a purpose-driven founder: building authentic community, overcoming self-worth struggles, and showing up as the most embodied version of yourself in leadership, love, and life.

In this episode of She's WELLthy, I bring you a conversation with Dene Logan, relationship coach & couples therapist, best-selling author, and mentee of Esther Perel. 

This episode goes far beyond the typical black & white dating advice. Dene shares her definition of "relationship success" vs how society defines it, the dangers of taking on attachment styles as identities, and how to start healing attachment wounding. 

We talk about the overfunctioner & underfunctioner dynamic, how resentment in relationships is created, what's really going on in the anxious-avoidant dynamic, and how to keep curiosity alive in long-term relationships.

Dene also talks about how to heal the wounded feminine energy to attract a healthy masculine partner, why embracing creativity & fun will magnetize your dream partner, and why women should be more protective of their sexual energy. 

Lastly, we cover tips for manifesting your dream partner.

In this episode of She's WELLthy, I'm talking with Jenna Zoe, astrology & human design expert and founder of the Human Design app.

We discuss our individual journeys finding spirituality as former atheists and the process of spiritual awakening & how individual it is. Jenna talks about the importance of learning to trust your intuition, make decisions with more clarity, and how to connect to your inner authority in a society full of distractions.

Jenna breaks down the 4 human design types, characteristics of each, and how to live in alignment with your unique human design. (I recommend taking her quiz to discover your type before listening: https://www.myhumandesign.com/get-your-chart/

Finally, we discuss the paradigm shift taking place. We're moving from a collective era to an individual era (something human design predicted a long time ago) and it's fascinating hearing how this will impact collective societal structures like education & work, as well as us on an individual level.
