Have you ever reached a crossroads in life and realized you've been making decisions based on everyone else's expectations but your own? Carole Podell's powerful journey illuminates how one authentic choice can transform everything.

Carole takes us through her remarkable career evolution from Emmy Award-winning broadcast producer to Vice President in financial services, and now as a life transition strategist helping women write their next chapters. She reveals how her neurodiversity—dyslexia and ADHD—became her superpower rather than a limitation, allowing her to approach challenges with unique perspective and creativity.

Carole introduces her Clarity Concept—a framework for identifying core values without judgment. She challenges the conventional notion that transitions require letting go of our past identities and instead, offers a liberating reframe that you're not letting it go, you're adding to it. This perspective honors all parts of our journey while creating space for growth and new possibilities.

Guest Bio:

Carole Podell is a Life Transition Strategist, Storyteller, and host of the podcast She Takes the Lead.  She is also a Fertility Warrior and a very proud Single Mom by Choice. Carole helps ambitious working moms navigate major life transitions, showing them how to confidently write their next chapter with intention, joy, and in a way that honors who they truly are.

Her diverse 25-year career has taken her from Emmy and Peabody Award-winning Broadcast Producer to Vice President in the multi-billion-dollar financial services industry.  With a Twice-Neurodiverse brain, she learned early on that if she wanted to succeed at anything, her process to get there would need to be of her own design. She nurtured what she now calls, her “Creatively Linear” thinking to successfully carve out a unique personal and professional path. These hurdles taught her that although we must live life on its terms, we do not need to be victims of someone else’s circumstance, diagnosis, or bad choices. Our path need not be straight, but it should be of our own making.

What happens when you finally stop betraying yourself and start listening to your intuition? Amy Sanders reveals how she transformed from a self-described "professional self-betrayer" trapped in an unhealthy marriage to a serial entrepreneur with five successful businesses.

Amy shares her early conditioning in a large religious family where she learned her voice didn't matter. This programming led to saying "sure" to a marriage proposal after just three weeks and subsequently enduring years of financial struggle and abuse. 

What makes this conversation truly valuable are the practical strategies Amy shares for breaking free from limiting beliefs—especially around money. Her morning routine combining gratitude journaling, visualization, physical movement, and reading creates the energetic foundation that supports her continued growth.

Through her Thrive Her Academy, Amy now helps women discover their own paths to awareness, alignment, and abundance.

Amy has overcome many traumatic events in her life that have shaped her into who she is today.  This includes losing a sister to suicide, abuse, divorce, being a broke single mom, and deep betrayal trauma recovery.  After hitting rock bottom Amy decided to change her stars.

With her unique skills, she has taught and inspired thousands of women through her Awareness - Alignment - Abundance methodology. From her experiences, Amy has made it her life mission to help women uncover their purpose, move from self-trust & expose their strengths so they can create a thriving life they love.

What if your greatest trauma became your most profound gift? That's exactly what happened to Dani Rosenblad James, whose life completely transformed after a catastrophic car accident left her with a traumatic brain injury ten years ago.

Dani takes us through the harrowing experience of her accident on black ice in Wyoming—an accident so severe the sheriff called it the worst he'd seen in his career. After being airlifted to Salt Lake City and placed in an induced coma, Dani awoke to an inner voice whispering, "This is but a moment." That simple phrase became her north star, guiding her from being a self-described "party girl" and weed farmer to becoming an international bestselling author, mind-body coach, and founder of Misfit Wanderers.

Dani made the remarkable choice to refuse pain medication during recovery so she could truly listen to her body—a decision that helped her develop the deep mind-body connection she now teaches others. Even today, she occasionally experiences cognitive challenges that remind her of her ongoing healing journey.

Her international bestselling book offers readers an intimate, raw look at her transformation, alternating between past and present to reveal both her pre-accident life and her path to healing.

Guest Bio:

Dani Rosenblad James is a dynamic force, inspiring through sustainable travel, writing, and mind-body coaching. As the founder of Misfit Wanders, she shares the transformative power of nature.

This episode I have an eye-opening conversation with Beth Iaciofano. We dive deep into the physics of energy, vibration, and how our mindset literally shapes the world we experience. Beth shares her remarkable journey from a 17-year middle school teaching career to becoming a certified master neuro-transformational mindset coach and intuitive medium. When faced with growing unhappiness despite a stable career, Beth courageously listened to her intuition and made the leap toward alignment with her true purpose.

Our conversation explores how emotions create specific energetic frequencies in our bodies. Low-vibration states like fear, anger, and shame can physically damage our bodies over time, while high-vibration states attract more positive experiences.

Ready to transform your understanding of energy, mindset, and personal power? This conversation will shift how you perceive your thoughts and emotions, and equip you with practical tools for creating the life you're truly meant for.

Guest Bio:

After stepping away from a 17-year career as a middle school science teacher, Beth found passion as a certified master neuro-transformational life coach and intuitive psychic & medium.

Join me and my guest, Ana Salido, a self-care and women's empowerment coach, as we reveal how true transformation begins with our relationship to ourselves.

Ana's journey began with a painful realization that she had spent years giving to others without knowing how to give to herself. This awakening launched her into a deep exploration of the internal work that now forms the foundation of her coaching practice.

Our conversation ventures into a territory many women will find painfully familiar—the harsh inner critic. Ana brilliantly distinguishes between "being nice" (self-sacrificing) and "being kind" (honoring both yourself and others), challenging listeners to examine where they might be abandoning themselves in the name of people-pleasing.

Whether you're just beginning to question the people-pleasing patterns in your life or you're already on a journey of self-discovery, Ana's compassionate wisdom offers a roadmap for moving forward.

Guest Bio:

She is dedicated to helping women prioritize their own needs by creating sustainable self-care habits that allow them to thrive in both their personal and professional lives.

Her journey led her to discover powerful tools for setting boundaries, fostering self-respect, and ultimately, creating a life that reflects her true desires. Ana is offering insights on personal growth, empowerment, and the necessity of self-care in today’s demanding world. Her passion for helping women reconnect with their power and purpose makes her a sought-after voice in the field of women's well-being.

Free gift: The art of putting yourself first provides access to Ana’s masterclass packed with valuable insights, strategies, and practices to help you reclaim your vitality, passion, and joy.
