  • Creating Health Equity for Women

    Kanwal Haq is on a mission, she is a medical anthropologist and brilliant researcher on a quest to bring true health equity to all women. Gone will be the days when women aren't believed by their healthcare provider by anchoring in the belief that knowledge is power. Kanwal's book, "Taking Care of You" is the go to for common conditions women are facing, the ones we don't learn about in school, the non-reproductive issues that are common killers that we don't know or hear about.

    Kanwal and her team don't just dwell on what we don't know, she moves through to getting answers and to shift the narrative from the problem, to the solution - the action toward what we're doing about changing the healthcare system to be inclusive toward all humans, and she is rooted in facts and research within the scientific, but also the humanities community. A trained doula, she is focused on creating the best possible outcomes for women and to understand what is actually going on in our bodies.

    Buy the book, "Taking Care of You" here - think of it as a women's healthcare guide or encyclopedia that includes both lived experience and of course research from experts. Visit the upcoming campaign of one million more women to share in the community of healthcare for women at https://onemilllionmorewomen.org. Find Kanwal Haq on LinkedIn or email at [email protected].

  • Define Yourself

    Content warning: discussion around domestic violence, workplace violence

  • Cosmic B!tchslap

    Jennifer Fiedler...mic drop. You'll know what I mean when you tune in - she has lived so many lives with one key element at her core (well, maybe 2), she has always trusted herself with everything she has and also trusts so innately to the divine that her path has unfolded gorgeously before her just as the way it was always intended. A consciousness coach, she guides people to awaken, when they're ready...to understand the divine, what it means to be awake, and how to navigate in the world that feels upside down.

    Her book, Cosmic Bitchslap dives deep into what it is, how you know when it happens, and how to navigate it - ultimately, the bitchslap occurs when the universe opens our eyes to something we've never seen before. It can hurt, it can feel good, it can be scary, it can be welcome...it completely depends on each unique soul's journey.

    And, from personal experience, it's fucking exquisite. Join me in exploring with this exquisite human and see our vibes unfold before us.

    Find Jennifer at https://cosmicbitch-slap.com/ and buy the book! You can also find her on LinkedIn and Instagram @cosmicbtchslap.

  • Embracing Duality

    Amanda Treppa loved her job AND she experienced workplace abuse. More than one thing can be true at once and we explore this notion to its depths during this episode showcasing our work in workplace psychological safety, and how we got here (as society, the abusers, the systems). Amanda fought back, embraced the duality, and embarked on the butterfly effect in every aspect of her life to see what was in store for her at her soul level.

    While we are not grateful for the abuse, we are grateful for the invitations to explore ourselves deeper, to create new opportunities we never thought were possible, and we forgive. Through empathy and activism, Amanda is driving the Workplace Psychological Safety Act forward in not one but TWO states - Michigan and Connecticut.

    Stay tuned to Amanda and her work in these two states as they will undoubtedly prevail in the coming year. Thank you for all that you do, and for sharing your story, Amanda.

    Find her on LinkedIn and on Instagram @Treppaisnottrippin, especially if you live in Michigan or Connecticut, to join the state team for workplace psychological safety act.

  • Menstrual Health is a Trojan Horse

    What if we were able to identify a gateway or a portal into overall health? Spoiler alert, we do...for people who menstruate, the monthly cycle is literally our bodies sharing information with us. Danielle Keiser helped launch the initiative from 2013-2015 as a real pioneer in the field, which prompted her to start and founded the Menstrual Health Hub (MH Hub) in 2016. In this incredibly informative episode, Danielle Keiser shares with us deep knowledge about the 4 phases of menstruation along with key elements to look for in each phase to ensure we are at optimal awareness!

    This episode blew my mind as there is still so much that we do not know, Danielle is leading the charge with countless other vagina warriors to bring knowledge to the forefront so that for people who menstruate, we're not held back by our periods, we're propelled forward. We work with our bodies, not against.

  • Whistleblowers Unite

    Trigger warning: stories of abuse, bullying, mobbing, racism, and trauma.

    Terry Chi and discuss a variety of lived experiences of workplace trauma and hers specifically rooted in racism and cultural bias against Asian American women. The treatment she has received since the dawn of her career is centered in people's unconscious biases of how an Asian woman should act or speak brought forth by tone policing her presentations, in person interactions, and even email communications.

    She is currently in the midst of a legal fight with her current employer where we dig in on what happened, how she's managing it, and what people should know to gear up for the fight - as the common reaction is retaliation, that Terry is no stranger to.

    Tune in to hear these stories, we want you to feel seen and heard, and glean a little something for your own personal power to fight back.

    You can find Terry Chi on LinkedIn to follow the progress in her case.

  • Money is Energy!

    We may or may not be able to agree (as a society) that we're in late stage capitalism and the masses are being harmed by this structure in society AND be able to remember that money itself is not innately bad - it's an energetic exchange. What turns sticky and icky is that humans then use money to exert power over one another, this is where Jeni and I discuss how to manage a modern day, heart-led business while still being asked to operate in a capitalist world.

    The beauty of being a heart-led business owner? To understand the energetics and love that money is for you, and uniquely what you bring to the world. Being in relationship and congruency to what you are calling in is something that is not only possible, but that Jeni helps you to unleash, to finally break out of the multi decade patterns that capitalism has taught us. Money loves you and wants to see you succeed.

    Find Jeni on Substack, LinkedIn, or visit her website.
