August 25, 2023 [Below 14th Street] HOW THE SEVENTEEN MAGAZINE EDITOR IN CHIEF CHANGED MY ENTIRE LIFE
This week's story from Below 14th Street is a heartfelt one that I think you'll really enjoy. It's a testament to the power of our words, especially to future generations. I'm talking about a very special story about a letter I wrote to the editor-in-chief of Seventeen Magazine when I was just 11 years old that changed my life and taught me the importance of believing in myself and chasing my dreams. It gave me permission to dream bigger than my circumstances, and sometimes, that's all you need. It's a story that I hope will inspire you to never give up on your dreams, no matter how big they may seem.

August 23, 2023ASHTON WHITMOYER-OBER ON ENNEAGRAMS, CONTENT CREATION, AND RELATIONSHIPS
In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ashton Whitmoyer-Ober, a successful entrepreneur and Enneagram expert. She is also a published author and has released several books including "The Enneagram for Relationships", the workbook "The Two of Us: A Three-Year Couples Journal", and "The Enneagram Made Simple". We talked all about her journey as a business owner, including what it’s been like for her to be a mother of two while running two businesses and writing a book. Juggling so much at once, Ashton shares how crucial it has been to have a supportive partner and community, why we all need to find a work/life balance, and how taking risks can lead to success. As if that wasn’t enough, we even got into the connection between Enneagrams and Astrology and the similarities between different personality types. It was an insightful and inspiring conversation, and I think you’ll each come away from it as inspired as I was.

August 21, 2023HOW TO ENHANCE THE BEST ASSET IN YOUR BUSINESS (PSST ITS NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS)
I'm sharing some of my top tips for enhancing your brand and attracting your ideal client. One of the key things we touch on is the importance of sharing your mission and values with your audience. Not only does this allow you to connect with clients who share your similar beliefs and values, but it helps you build a strong and loyal following. Being transparent and vulnerable helps people connect to you not just as a brand, but as a person. Opening up about your mistakes, lessons learned, and personal experiences can help you reach your audience on a deeper level, and weaving your personality into your messaging makes your brand one of a kind. Remember, you are the best asset in your business, and your story and experiences are what set you apart from everyone else.

I'm excited to share my thrilling story of how I managed to break into New York Fashion Week not once, not twice, but three times. I was a young woman determined to land a job in the fashion industry, and I'll take you through my hilarious and outrageous attempts to get in. From trying to con my way past security to hacking my way in with an old QR code, I tried it all. Along the way, I encountered some of the biggest names in fashion and even checked in celebrities like Beyonce and Jessica Biel. But getting into Fashion Week was only half the battle. Listen in as I recount my firsthand experience of the glamour and excitement of the runway shows.
