Write Your Outcome

What if the thing holding you back isn't your skill—but your silence?

In this episode of Write Your Outcome, I sit down with Beth Masterman, executive coach and founder of Masterman Executive Coaching. Beth works with high-performing leaders who look successful on paper—but feel stuck, disconnected, or unfulfilled.

We dive into the real reason so many leaders hit a wall: misalignment, fear, and the conversations they're avoiding. Beth shares powerful, practical tools to help you move through fear, navigate difficult conversations, and reconnect with what truly matters in your work and life.

If you've ever felt like something is missing—even when everything "looks right"—this conversation will help you get honest, get clear, and take your next step forward.

Because writing your outcome isn't about doing more. It's about aligning with what's right for you.

This week, Michele sits down with Sarah Olivieri, entrepreneur, nonprofit strategist, and creator of the Impact Method, for a conversation about courage, clarity, and choosing the life you know you're meant to lead.

After years of helping other visionary leaders build their dreams, Sarah realized something profound: she had been helping everyone else write their outcomes, but hadn't fully claimed her own. In a moment of deep reflection, she chose to step into a new chapter—one where her work, her voice, and her vision could truly be her own.

This conversation is about more than strategy. It's about listening to the quiet inner voice that says there's something more for you and having the courage to follow it.

So many high-achieving women have mastered their careers but feel confused, discouraged, or exhausted when it comes to love.

In this episode, I sit down with relationship coach, hypnotherapist, and author Mina Yang to unpack why so many high-achieving women struggle in relationships. It's not because you're "too successful" or "too intimidating." It's often because you've learned to shrink, over-give, shape-shift, or chase emotionally unavailable partners.

This episode is about taking radical responsibility without self-blame. It's about being clear, setting boundaries, protecting your energy, and believing that healthy love actually exists.

What if work felt like a party — and leadership felt like grace?

This week, I am so excited to sit down with Jennifer Sperber of Mixology Westhampton to explore what happens when autonomy replaces micromanagement and culture becomes intentional.

This is a masterclass in leading with heart, humanity, and just the right amount of tequila.

Pam Dwyer transformed a life shaped by trauma, people-pleasing, and overwhelm into one guided by intention, self-awareness, and purpose.

This week, I am absolutely thrilled to sit down with my longtime friend Kenyatta Jones-Arietta to talk about the real work behind lasting love.

From bold life decisions at a young age to manifesting a 25-year partnership, Kenyatta shares how intuition, self-trust, and emotional honesty shaped her journey. We talk about manifesting a partner, navigating the shifts inside long-term relationships, and how true love is not something you chase—it's something you practice, starting with yourself.

If you've ever wondered whether lasting love is possible or how to rewrite your relationship story after disappointment or loss, this episode is a reminder that your next chapter is always waiting to be written.

Grief changes us, but it doesn't have to stop us from moving forward.

In this deeply moving and eye-opening episode of Write Your Outcome, I sit down with grief counselor and founder of the Center for Informed Grief, Kelly Daugherty, for a conversation that blends science, spirituality, and real-life experience in the most human way.

Kelly's journey into grief work began as a teenager after losing her mother to breast cancer, and that lived experience has shaped a career dedicated to helping others navigate loss with compassion, resilience, and connection.

We unpack what grief actually looks like (spoiler: it's not the stages), why resilience isn't about "moving on," and how we can continue meaningful bonds with those we've lost.

This week, I am so excited to sit down with chef Aki Goldberg for a conversation that goes far beyond what's on the plate.

After years in a different career, Aki chose to honor her lifelong love of food, starting with something simple yet powerful: soup. In this episode, she shares why small steps matter, how putting yourself into your work changes everything, and what it means to create with integrity while serving others.

If you've ever felt the nudge to begin again, to create something meaningful, or to write a new outcome rooted in love and service, this conversation will stay with you long after it ends.

In this powerful live coaching session, I am joined by my good friend Liz Benuscak for an honest, heartfelt conversation about transition, identity, and reclaiming personal power.

Liz is navigating multiple life shifts at once—divorce, caring for an aging parent, career crossroads, and the quiet realization that she's been pouring into everyone else while leaving herself last. Together, we slow things down to tune into what's really happening beneath the surface.

This episode walks listeners through the Write Your Outcome process in real time, connecting head, heart, and gut, naming emotions without judgment, and creating a clear vision rooted in how you want to feel, not just what you want to achieve.

What if the doubts holding you back aren't new—but patterns you can finally rewrite?

This week, I'm thrilled to sit down with psychological strategist, inventor of Neurostrategy, and founder of Orchestraight, Jake Stahl, for a powerful conversation at the intersection of neuroscience, behavior, and personal transformation.

Jake shares his deeply personal journey, from addiction and loss to clarity and purpose, and how it became the catalyst for his work helping people feel seen, heard, and respected. You'll learn why naming your triggers weakens them, how subtle signals shape every interaction, and why true communication isn't about talking more, but about connecting deeper.

If you've ever felt stuck in old patterns or invisible in conversations, this episode offers a clear reminder: when you change how you show up, you change what's possible, and you write a new outcome.
