Hey, you’re stuck with me this week!

But don’t worry, I brought reinforcements in the form of Jen Sincero’s You Are a Badass, one of the very first personal development books that actually made me feel like I could do the dang thing.

In this solo episode of The Orange Butterfly Effect, I’m sharing highlights from the book, reflections, and a little nudge to take action, not just absorb information and move on (yup, I do that too).

In this week’s episode of The Orange Butterfly Effect, I had the pleasure of sitting down (in-person) with Shanie Mohamed, a first-generation American, first-gen college graduate, nonprofit executive at just 23, mentor to many, and a dear friend to me.

Currently serving as the Director of Economic Development for the Greater Wyoming Valley Chamber of Commerce, Shanie opens up about what it really means to do it first, to lead the way in spaces no one in your family has entered before, and to stay true to yourself while navigating cultural expectations, professional pressures, and the quiet weight of being “the first.”

This conversation explores identity, community, ambition, and the beauty of being scared but doing it anyway.

You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to be brave enough to start.

In this week’s episode of The Orange Butterfly Effect, I had the absolute pleasure of connecting with Kris Jones, serial entrepreneur, investor, bestselling author, philanthropist, and all-around good human.

You might know him from Pepperjam (which he sold), Special Guest App (which he co-founded with Damon Wayans Jr.), or his most recent book, The Entrepreneur’s Exit Playbook.

This episode is packed with chit chat about personal and professional development, self-awareness, leadership, legacy, and what it really means to create something that lasts.

Oh! And Kris reminds you that you can choose to be extraordinary.

In this episode, I sit down with the wild woman herself (and self-proclaimed 'neuro-nerd'), Melissa Roberts! Melissa is a fierce advocate for the healing power of nature, a community builder, and an unstoppable entrepreneur. She gets real and opens up about her transformative journey, sharing how personal struggles led her to discover nature’s hidden superpowers for mental and emotional healing. We chat about why stepping outside your comfort zone (and literally stepping outside) is essential, how building genuine connections can change everything, and the magic of the Wild Women NEPA festival in bringing women together to grow and thrive.

P.S. The podcast is now available in both audio and video! Wohoo!

Noticing a tech hiccup? Same.  I care a lot about your experience and promise it’s only going to get better from here. Thank you for giving me grace!

In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Sigel, author, AI marketing CEO, founder, and former ‘Director of Twizzlers and Jolly Ranchers' (yes, really), for a thoughtful conversation on curiosity and perspective. We talk about how AI is shaking things up, why perspective is your secret weapon, and what Jeff wishes he knew in his twenties (my favorite question). What happens when you stop pretending to have all the answers and actually start listening? Oh, and here’s a wild idea; what if we just treat each other like human beings?
