  • SU135: From Success to Significance: Finding Purpose, Identity & Fulfillment with Mia Frankl

    In this conversation, Mia Frankl and I dive deep into the mechanics of leading yourself before leading your system. As an OBM turned life coach, Mia reflects on the "surgical precision" she once performed and how she flipped that expertise to create "structure with soul" or as she calls it, a waterfall held by rock.

    We talk about the "Everyday Woman" the woman balancing laundry and ambition and why you don't have to quit your day job to be a "real" entrepreneur. Mia shares her practical approach to business, including using simple tools like Canva for landing pages to keep technology from becoming a barrier to connection.

    This episode brings attention to the operational side of soul-centered growth.

    Vulnerability in Parenting: Exaggerating our mistakes to teach children resilience and accountability.

    Productivity vs. Busywork: Focusing on returning ROIs and working in the "5 to 7 a.m. pocket" for extreme freedom.

    Intimate Containers: The shift toward small-group, integrated work over large, impersonal coaching programs.

    The Power of Stillness: Why "quiet stillness time" is the ultimate tool for building self-trust and avoiding AI-induced nervous system hijack.

    The Ugly Duckling Identity: How feeling like an outsider can eventually become a safe place to hold identity and power.

    Leading by Example: Understanding that our children are watching us not for perfection, but for how we manage our human emotions.

    • SU134: Why Successful Entrepreneurs Simplify to Scale with Laura Schoenfeld

      Laura Schoenfeld's entrepreneurial journey began long before online business became mainstream.

      After years of creating content, podcasting, blogging, and working behind the scenes for a successful health business, Laura launched her own nutrition consulting practice with a waitlist already in place built through years of consistently sharing valuable content and demonstrating expertise.

      Over the next decade, she grew multiple successful programs, supported hundreds of entrepreneurs, and built a thriving business coaching practice focused on helping health and wellness professionals create sustainable online businesses.

      But as Laura's life evolved, so did her business.

      Becoming a mother introduced an entirely new perspective on success, capacity, and how she wanted her business to support her life.

      In this conversation, Laura openly shares the difficult decisions she made to shut down multiple successful offers including programs generating hundreds of thousands of dollars annually not because they weren't profitable, but because they no longer aligned with the life she wanted to create.

      Together, we explore the difference between building a business that looks successful from the outside and building one that genuinely supports your values, energy, and season of life.

      Laura introduces her philosophy of "starting your business backwards" an inside-out approach that helps entrepreneurs identify their unique strengths, beliefs, and positioning before focusing on marketing tactics or sales strategies.

      Throughout the episode, we discuss:

      ● Why many entrepreneurs unintentionally build businesses around external expectations instead of personal alignment

      ● The hidden challenges of scaling programs that become overly dependent on the founder

      ● How motherhood creates new opportunities for intentional business design

      ● The importance of simplifying offers and systems to create greater freedom

      ● Why entrepreneurs must stop outsourcing their decision-making and learn to trust their own wisdom

      ● Building businesses that evolve alongside personal growth and identity shifts

      ● Creating meaningful impact without sacrificing personal well-being

      One of the most powerful themes throughout this conversation is that growth doesn't always require expansion.

      Sometimes the most courageous business decision is to simplify, recalibrate, and create a business that truly supports the life you're living now.

      This episode is a beautiful invitation to redefine success, trust your intuition, and build a business that grows with you—not against you.

       

       

      What We Explore in This Episode
      ● Scaling Through Simplification

      Why removing complexity, eliminating unnecessary offers, and focusing on what matters most can create stronger and more sustainable business growth.

      ● Building a Business Around Your Season of Life

      How motherhood, personal priorities, and evolving identity can shape the way entrepreneurs design their businesses.

      ● Self-Trust as a Leadership Skill

      Why the best business decisions often come from developing confidence in your own judgment instead of constantly seeking external validation.

      ● Starting Your Business Backwards

      Laura's unique approach to building businesses from the inside out by aligning expertise, values, positioning, and client needs before focusing on growth tactics.

      ● Sustainable Success and Personal Freedom

      Creating offers, systems, and business models that support both financial success and a fulfilling personal life.

      • SU133: Woman Empowerment with Priyanka Khandalkar (As featured in Call It in with Dar Podcast)

        Priyanka Khandalkar's story is one of courage, reinvention, and alignment.

        Originally from India, Priyanka moved to the United States to pursue her master's degrees in Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management. Over the next seventeen years, she built a successful corporate career working with Fortune 500 companies including Toyota, Volkswagen, Hyundai, John Deere, and Steelcase.

        Yet despite the success, she felt a deeper calling.

        Her entrepreneurial journey began after being laid off in 2015, an experience that challenged her sense of security and opened the door to new possibilities. While continuing her corporate career, she launched multiple business ventures, including e-commerce brands, technology projects, and consulting services.

        The turning point came during the COVID pandemic when concerns for her family's well-being led her to leave corporate life and fully embrace entrepreneurship.

        Since then, Priyanka has helped over 1,200 businesses grow and scale, worked alongside Tony Robbins' organization, launched the globally ranked Show Up with Priyanka podcast, built a successful marketing and operations agency, and stepped into her deeper mission of helping purpose-driven leaders create businesses and lives aligned with their soul's calling.

        Throughout the conversation, Priyanka shares how her personal experiences, including divorce, entrepreneurship, and spiritual awakening, taught her some of life's most important lessons.

        One of the biggest lessons was learning that self-worth cannot come from external validation.

        For years, she searched for approval through achievement, relationships, and professional success. It wasn't until she turned inward that she discovered the confidence, clarity, and empowerment she had been seeking all along.

        Priyanka also discusses how modern hustle culture often disconnects people from themselves. She explains the importance of creating pauses throughout the day, reconnecting with nature, listening to intuition, and honoring the needs of the body, mind, and soul.

        One of the most practical moments of the episode is when Priyanka shares her powerful three-part framework for navigating difficult situations:

        Intention

        What is the desired outcome and deeper purpose of the interaction?

        Presence

        How can you show up fully present and engaged in the moment?

        Energy

        What energy do you want to embody before stepping into the conversation or situation?

        This simple yet transformative practice has helped her navigate everything from business negotiations to deeply personal conversations during her life transitions.

        The conversation also explores the importance of receiving.

        Many women are conditioned to give endlessly while struggling to receive support, compliments, opportunities, or abundance. Priyanka explains how learning to receive is an essential part of personal growth and spiritual alignment.

        Finally, Priyanka shares her Automate & Delegate Workbook, a practical tool designed to help individuals identify what can be deleted, delegated, automated, and intentionally retained in their lives and businesses.

        Her message is clear:

        Your soul has a purpose.

        But for that purpose to flourish, it needs structure.

        When we create systems that support our lives, we create space for creativity, peace, joy, impact, and alignment.

        • SU132: Spiritual Awakening, Soul Purpose & Akashic Records with Nimesh Radia

          Nimesh Radia's spiritual journey began long before he ever opened the Akashic Records.

          Starting his career in the corporate world, Nimesh was driven by ambition, determination, and the belief that success could be achieved through mindset, hard work, and perseverance. Yet a series of life-changing experiences eventually led him into a deeper exploration of spirituality, energy, healing, and soul purpose.

          Through personal challenges, profound loss, and his own spiritual awakening, Nimesh discovered that many of the answers he had spent years searching for externally were already within him.

          This realization ultimately led him to the Akashic Records, a powerful, energetic archive that holds information about a soul's journey across lifetimes.

          In this conversation, Nimesh explains how the Akashic Records can provide insight into our karmic patterns, soul contracts, life lessons, and deeper purpose. Rather than predicting the future or providing simple answers, the Records offer guidance that helps individuals better understand themselves and the experiences they are navigating.

          Together, we explore how many people today are experiencing profound shifts in consciousness and questioning traditional definitions of success, identity, and belonging.

          Nimesh shares his perspective on why so many people feel disconnected from societal expectations and how spiritual awakening often requires us to release outdated versions of ourselves to step into greater alignment.

          In this episode, we explore:

          ● How spiritual awakening often begins through life's greatest challenges

          ● Understanding karma, soul contracts, and ancestral healing

          ● The role of the Akashic Records in personal transformation

          ● Divine masculine and feminine energy and their collective evolution

          ● Trusting intuition and connecting with your spiritual guides

          • SU131: From Hustle to Harmony: Attracting Love Through Soul Alignment with Michelle Chung

            Michelle Chung's journey into relationship coaching began through her own profound transformation.

            After experiencing divorce in her early thirties while many of her friends were getting married and starting families, Michelle found herself questioning everything she thought she knew about relationships. What followed was a journey of physical healing, spiritual awakening, personal growth, and self-discovery that ultimately led her to a deeper understanding of love, alignment, and soul purpose.

            In this conversation, Michelle shares how years of online dating, constant searching, and even traveling across the world failed to bring her the relationship she desired. It wasn't until she shifted her focus inward and began aligning with her authentic self that she attracted the partner who would become her soulmate.

            Together, we explore how many ambitious women unknowingly operate from a masculine-driven approach to life and relationships. While this energy often helps them succeed professionally, it can create challenges when seeking a conscious, supportive partnership.

            Michelle beautifully explains that feminine energy is not about weakness, dependency, or fitting into traditional stereotypes. Instead, it is about embracing the internal journey of self-awareness, emotional intelligence, spiritual connection, and alignment.

            Throughout the episode, we discuss:

            ● Why traditional dating advice often leaves high-achieving women feeling exhausted and disconnected

            ● The importance of understanding your values before entering a relationship
            ● How spiritual alignment creates greater clarity in attracting the right partner
            ● The distinction between life purpose and soul purpose
            ● Balancing masculine action with feminine surrender
            ● Releasing old relationship patterns and attracting conscious love
            ● The power of self-observation and personal mastery in creating transformation

            Michelle also shares inspiring client success stories, including a woman who transformed her relationship outcomes after gaining clarity on her values and another who experienced profound breakthroughs through self-awareness and reflection.

            One of the most powerful themes throughout this conversation is that lasting love is not created through chasing, proving, or performing.

            It emerges when we become deeply aligned with who we truly are.

            This episode is a beautiful invitation to soften, trust, and remember that the relationship you desire often begins with the relationship you cultivate with yourself.

            What We Explore in This Episode

            ● Life Purpose vs. Soul Purpose

            Understanding the deeper spiritual mission behind your life and how soul alignment influences the relationships you attract.

            ● Feminine Energy Beyond the Stereotypes

            Why feminine energy is not about being passive or dependent but about cultivating self-awareness, intuition, emotional intelligence, and inner alignment.

            ● Attracting Love Through Alignment

            How shifting your identity, values, and energy creates space for conscious partnerships without relying on exhausting dating strategies.

            ● Personal Mastery and Self-Discovery

            The transformative role of self-observation, self-love, and internal growth in creating fulfilling relationships and a meaningful life.

            • SU130: The Feminine Superpower Hidden in Your Subconscious Mind with Victoria Shakoor

              In this heartfelt and soul-expanding conversation, Victoria Shakoor shares how she discovered her calling as a “Superpower Activator” and the deeper work she now guides women through to uncover the subconscious identities silently shaping their lives.

              Victoria explains that many women unknowingly operate from inherited trauma patterns, emotional conditioning, childhood wounds, and subconscious programming that keeps them constantly searching for validation, perfection, or something to “fix” within themselves.

              But according to Victoria, healing begins the moment we stop seeing ourselves as broken.

              Together, we discuss the concept of living from the superconscious mind instead of the subconscious mind moving away from survival mode, overthinking, and emotional sabotage into a space of creativity, intuition, expansion, and conscious leadership.

              Victoria also shares a beautiful client transformation story where uncovering a deeply rooted “I’m not good enough” identity completely shifted the client’s business, relationships with clients, and ability to receive success.

              Throughout this episode, we explore: 

              ● Why subconscious identities silently shape our business and personal lives 
              ● The emotional impact of seeking external validation and approval 
              ● How feminine intuition and creativity become accessible through healing 
              ● Why resistance, doubt, and overwhelm are actually messages from the body 
              ● The importance of reflection, emotional release, and self-awareness 
              ● How women can reconnect to their truth without constantly trying to fix themselves

              One of the most powerful moments in this conversation is Victoria’s reminder that our emotions are not something to suppress or resist, as they are communication.

              When we allow ourselves to slow down, listen inward, and become present with what is arising, we begin reconnecting with our authentic self and hidden gifts.

              This episode is a reminder that your feminine superpower has always been within you.

              Sometimes, it simply needs space, safety, healing, and awareness to emerge.

              What We Explore in This Episode

              ● Subconscious Programming & Identity

              How childhood conditioning, trauma, and inherited beliefs quietly influence the way women lead, create, and experience success.

              ● Living from the Superconscious Mind

              Victoria shares the difference between survival-based living and leading from creativity, intuition, expansion, and truth.

              ● Emotional Healing & Feminine Power

              Why emotional release, reflection, and self-awareness are essential for reconnecting with your feminine superpower.

              ● Releasing the Need to Be “Fixed”

              A powerful conversation on moving away from self-judgment and embracing your wholeness, worthiness, and inner wisdom.

              • SU129: The Power of People & Exceptional Client Experience with Samantha Irwin

                In this conversation, Samantha Irwin and I dive deep into what it truly means to build a business around people.

                Samantha shares how she transitioned from teaching middle school into entrepreneurship after feeling called toward something more aligned with her gifts, creativity, and leadership. That calling eventually led her and her husband to a tiny town in Oregon where they discovered a historic three-story hotel sitting quietly behind a row of trees.

                The moment she stepped inside, she saw the vision instantly.

                With no staff, no furniture, no systems, and no hospitality background, Samantha took a leap of faith and spent nearly a year restoring the property from the ground up. What followed became a masterclass in customer experience, team culture, and creating meaningful human connection through business.

                Throughout this episode, we explore:

                • Why businesses succeed when people feel seen and valued
                • The emotional reality of entrepreneurship and learning through uncertainty
                • How leadership directly shapes customer experience
                • The importance of delegation, team empowerment, and workplace culture
                • Why customer retention is more profitable than constant acquisition
                • How small intentional interactions create unforgettable experiences
                • Samantha also shares one of the foundational hospitality practices that transformed her hotel experience: teaching every team member the power of eye contact, smiling, and greeting every guest with genuine acknowledgment.

                  Because at the end of the day, people may forget the product… but they never forget how you made them feel.

                  This episode is about leadership with heart.

                  Building businesses through connection.
                  And creating experiences that people carry with them long after they leave your space.

                  What We Explore in This Episode
                  • Restoring a Historic Hotel
                  • How Samantha transformed a forgotten 1907 hotel into a thriving hospitality experience rooted in connection and community.

                    • The Power of Customer Experience
                    • Why loyalty and retention are built through emotion, consistency, and human connection.

                      • Leadership & Team Culture
                      • How empowering employees creates stronger businesses, happier teams, and better client experiences.

                        • The Customer Journey
                        • Why small intentional moments can dramatically impact retention, referrals, and long-term growth.

                          • SU128: From Mastermind to Malibu West Media with Ali Reyna

                            In this conversation, Ali Reyna and I go beyond entrepreneurship and talk about the deeper identity shifts that happen when you outgrow a season of life.

                            Ali shares how her journey started long before mastermind.com, from helping manage her family’s salon at a young age to living a double life between Arizona and Mexico City while pursuing modeling. Those early experiences shaped her independence, adaptability, and work ethic.

                            When the pandemic shifted the world in 2020, Ali found herself searching for a new path. That search eventually led her to mastermind.com, where she stepped into a role that would rapidly evolve into leadership positions supporting some of the largest online launches and coaching experiences in the industry.

                            From managing massive online events to becoming Director of Client Success, Ali helped create transformational experiences for hundreds of thousands of people. But over time, she realized that being deeply purposeful in her work wasn’t the same as fully living in alignment with her life.

                            One quiet moment changed everything. A realization that she had spent years constantly producing, achieving, and overcommitting without creating space for herself. That awareness became the catalyst for change.

                            Today, Ali co-owns Malibu West Media with her husband, combining strategy, storytelling, branding, media, and online growth to help entrepreneurs and thought leaders scale with intention.

                            This episode is about courage.

                            The courage to evolve.
                            The courage to leave what’s familiar.
                            And the courage to build a life that feels like your own.

                            What happens emotionally and mentally when you leave a high-impact executive role behind.

                            From Purposeful to Aligned

                            Why success alone doesn’t always create fulfillment.

                            The Power of Boundaries

                            Moving from a constant “yes” season into intentional decision-making.

                            • SU127: Reinventing Yourself with Human Design, From Stuck to Aligned with Jenny Cotten

                              In this episode, I’m joined by Jenny Cotten to explore what it truly means to reinvent yourself and realign your life using Human Design. Jenny shares her journey from spending 15 years in education while feeling disconnected, to navigating eight years of uncertainty, and finally discovering the key that changed everything—understanding her own energetic blueprint.

                              We talk about how so many women feel stuck, not because they’re doing something wrong, but because they’re out of alignment with who they truly are. Jenny shares how shifting from forcing outcomes to responding with intuition created a transformation in just three months.

                              In this episode, we discuss:

                              • Why feeling “stuck” is often a sign of misalignment, not failure.
                              • The difference between forcing action and responding with aligned energy.
                              • How Human Design helps you reconnect with your intuition and self-trust.
                              • The mindset shifts needed to move from overthinking into empowered action.

                                • SU126: Million Dollar Sales Systems, the Art of Follow-Up & Scaling without Big Launches with Renee Hribar

                                  In this conversation, Renee Hribar and I dive deep into the mechanics of sales for service-based entrepreneurs who want to grow through relationships rather than cold DMs.

                                  At the heart of Renee’s work is the belief that sales should feel natural and easy. She shares how many entrepreneurs "pitch-slap" or disappear after a first connection, missing the massive revenue potential held within a simple, consistent follow-up system.

                                  We talk about the importance of qualifying everyone you meet using Renee’s "Three Cs" framework, ensuring every conversation leads to forward motion, whether they become a client, a connector for your brand, or a future collaborator. Renee also reflects on her "Zero to Sales" philosophy, which focuses on small, daily intentional actions rather than overwhelming launches.

                                  This episode brings attention to the operational side of scaling:

                                  • Refreshing SOPs and redefining team roles to ensure a smooth "wheel" as you grow.
                                  • Integrating AI ethically and efficiently into team workflows.
                                  • Moving from chasing revenue to building a business that supports long-term wealth.
                                  • The power of "Showing Up" with heart and grit to lift up other women in business.
                                  • At its core, this conversation is about simplifying the path to "Yes." Because true success isn’t just about the numbers, it’s about the systems that free you to lead with vision.

                                    What We Explore in This Episode
                                    • My Favorite F-Word: Why consistent follow-up is the key to converting conversations into clients without pressure.
                                    • Closing in 10 Minutes: How to do the heavy lifting before the call so the final chat is just about next steps.
                                    • The Three Cs Framework: A simple way to qualify every networking opportunity and speaker engagement.
                                    • Leadership & Legacy: Transitioning from corporate to entrepreneurship and building a culture of impact.
