In this episode, Paige sits down with Kristy Castillo—hair stylist turned online fitness coach and host of the Unf*ck Your Fitness podcast—to talk about what really happens when your podcast blows up... even if you're not ready for it.

Kristy shares the behind-the-scenes of how she transitioned from running a chair to running a business, what made her podcast explode seemingly overnight, and how she handled the unexpected flood of leads (while also going through a really hard time in her personal life).

This episode is for the ones who aren’t afraid to figure it out as they go.

You’ll discover:

How Kristy went from hairstylist to fitness coach and why 2020 changed everything

The exact moment her podcast took off—and what she did (and didn’t) do to grow it

Why authentic storytelling—not just strategy—is what made her brand magnetic

What happened when her business blew up before she was ready, and how she rebuilt it piece by piece

The surprising parallels between fitness and entrepreneurship that keep her going when life gets messy

If you want to grow a brand that’s real, sustainable, and built on connection—not just hype—this episode will remind you what’s possible when you show up and speak your truth.

In this episode, Paige sits down with Angie Lee for a no-filter, fly-on-the-wall conversation about the Soft Girl Era, motherhood journeys, masculine & feminine culture on Instagram & TikTok, social media influence and the messy psychology behind chasing “the slow life."

This isn’t a curated interview—we're sitting down and being brutally honest about our personal experiences with the "soft girl" lifestyle — like what happens when you buy into the narrative that slowing all the way down, frolicking in the fields, and living a “trad wife” life will make you happier. Spoiler: for some women, it’s the very thing that makes them miserable.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you should lean into the soft girl lifestyle, feel guilty for wanting something outside of motherhood, or feel like you’re doing womanhood “wrong” because you’re ambitious—this convo is a must listen, my girl <3

You’ll discover:

The dark side of the Soft Girl Era—why so many women are realizing it’s not actually making them happier

The fertility space problem—how rigid “do this, don’t do that” advice is wrecking women’s mental health

Motherhood + ambition—why being fulfilled outside of your kids can actually make you a better mom if that's who you truly are

The psychology behind why slow-living content goes viral (and why so many women secretly feel trapped by it)

Our personal stories of leaving the hustle, trying the soft life, and realizing it wasn’t the answer

If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck between wanting to do it all and feeling like you’re supposed to slow down, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

In this episode, Paige sits down with Emily Duncan—multi-passionate entrepreneur, fitness coach, content creator, and brand strategist—to talk about what it really takes to build a successful brand in 2025, even if you don’t fit neatly into one “niche.”

Emily gets real about how she’s grown her business as an ambivert (not an extroverted influencer type), why being a “Both Girl” has made her brand magnetic instead of confusing, and the moment she realized spirituality was actually holding her back from taking action.

This conversation is raw, refreshing, and exactly what ambitious, multidimensional entrepreneurs need to hear right now.

Why “picking a lane” isn’t required to grow a magnetic brand (and how to stand out as a multi-passionate creator)

How Emily grew a successful brand as an ambivert—and why you don’t need to be loud to be seen

What “Both Girl” energy really is, and how to own your duality without confusing your audience

The moment Emily realized spirituality was pulling her out of action—and how she shifted back into momentum

If you’ve ever felt stuck between wanting to grow your business and wanting a life that actually feels good—this episode will hit hard.
