The Art of Pre-Selling

What if I told you that one single Instagram story slide brought in $20K in sales?

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on my exact IG story flow and how I consistently use stories—not just posts—to build trust, nurture warm leads, and spark sales conversations that convert. Whether you have a big audience or you're just starting from scratch, this strategy works. I'm also breaking down the difference between direct vs. indirect selling in stories and why "talking to the camera" isn't even required.

If you've ever felt like your stories get views but never bring in clients—this episode is for you.

You can be successful, self-aware, and high-functioning—and still completely lose yourself in a relationship.

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm joined by integrative therapist and somatic practitioner Megan Sherer for a deeply honest conversation about how even the most self-sufficient women can unconsciously self-abandon when love is on the line. We unpack how nervous system conditioning, attachment styles, and childhood trauma shape our romantic patterns and why it's so hard to walk away from someone who feels like home, even when they aren't safe for your healing.

If you've been losing yourself in relationships that require you to shrink, fix, or prove your worth, this episode is for you.

Ever feel like you should be over it by now, but something small still sends you spiraling?

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm joined by Rabbi Judy Greenfeld for a deeply grounding conversation on grief, healing, and giving yourself permission to feel it all—even years after divorce. We talk about what it actually looks like to spiritually process life after a major transition, how triggers can resurface in unexpected ways, and why starting over doesn't mean rushing your growth. Judy shares her personal story of leaving LA for a new city, rebuilding her life and identity as a divorced woman and rabbi, and learning how to find joy again through creativity, sound healing, and truth-telling.

If you've been wondering why it still hurts sometimes—and how to move through it with more grace and less self-judgment—this episode is for you.
