“One day when I’m on my deathbed, chances are I’ll still be telling people to…”

This was a prompt given to me in this really cool writing group I'm in (shoutout Tarzan, love you!) and it really got the wheels turning! So much of what I do is dependent on industries and trends and platforms that exist in the now, but on my deathbed (hopefully I'm 105 years old!), everything will have shapeshifted, so what will I still be telling clients to do?

What are my universal truths that transcend industry, platform, methodology, medium?

In this week's episode, I'm diving into timeless truths that transcend trends and sharing the six biz truths I'm still standing by as a biz strategist in 2026! 

Ever feel the nudge to go all in on your side hustle? Before the plan is fully fleshed out, when it's all still messy AF!? Or maybe things are nearly working (!!) and you're getting the hit you need to pivot for things to really click. If you've ever found yourself wondering if it's possible to build a business that honors your creativity, your profit margins AND your peace... this episode is MEDICINE!

I'm chatting with my longtime client and OG biz babe, Emily Bordner, founder of E.B.& Co, who's been turning her vision into an empire (with FOUR retail locations, a thriving wholesale biz, custom manufacturing, and the kind of forecastability most founders only dream of).

This episode, I'm answering the questions I get asked quite often, especially now as a mama:

"Did you like growing up homeschooling?" (Well, unschooling, actually. Google it!)

"How did you go to college/make money/not become a reclusive weirdo?"

I share about = how that single, radical choice (shoutout to my brave parents 👋) shaped literally eeeverything about how I live, work, parent and lead now.

No bells. No grades. No tests. I did make my mom buy me a locker tho, so my school was "real". Bc OBVI a locker = true education.

Our bodies are always speaking to us, but most of us were never taught how to listen.

Instead, we’re taught to numb, push through, perform, optimize, transcend, and “be productive.” We try to think our way out of fear. We try to affirm our way out of dysregulation. We try to logic our way into clarity.

But what if the clarity, the courage, the creativity, the capacity you’re craving, is already living in your body?

This convo with Shantani Moore, Body Intelligence Coach and nervous system expert, is one of the most energizing, truth-telling, paradigm-shifting episodes we’ve had on the pod. She’s funny, brilliant, wildly compassionate, and refreshingly honest about what “doing the work” really means (and what it absolutely doesn’t).

Ohhh, you're in for a ride today!

I'm joined by my husband Sam Robinson for part interview, part riff, part just fly on the wall how we-exist-as-a-couple-kind of episode.

Sam is a therapist & entrepreneur (even if he doesn't identify as such), and in this episode we talk about everything from co-habitating as a household of two biz owners, co-sleeping with our 5 yo, how we handle conflict, what we love about each other, a little bit about how we met (spoiler: it may or may not involve some pink short shorts and I'll let you guess which one of us was wearing them 😉), and so much more!

You know that point in your biz where the work that once lit you up starts asking something new of you? Maybe new systems, new boundaries, new levels of self-leadership?

That’s exactly what today’s conversation explores.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Tonya Papanikolov, the founder and CEO of RAINBO, a functional mushroom and adaptogen company built on a foundation of integrity, curiosity, and deep reverence for the natural world.

Tonya’s story moves from holistic nutritionist and yoga practitioner to visionary product-based founder, blending together science, spirituality, and entrepreneurship in the most magnetic way. We talk about nervous system wisdom, feminine leadership, working with your partner, and what it really looks like to grow a soul-led business that scales, without losing your magic.

As artists and creative entrepreneurs, we’ve all heard people talk about finding your zone of genius. And while I love the intention behind it, lately it’s started to feel a little limiting, like maybe what we actually need isn’t more “genius”… but more aliveness.

What if instead of asking, “What am I the best at?”

we asked, “What makes me feel most alive?”

Ever had the gut feeling that the “dream” you built isn’t actually yours anymore? That little voice in your head that says: burn it all down and begin again?

That’s exactly what artist Nicole Leth did. After a decade running a wildly successful clothing line (stores, press, big following), she walked away to return to what felt true. Now her work shows up where you least expect it — on billboards, in murals, as anonymous postcards, even written across the sky.

Nicole shows us what it looks like to listen to your intuition even when it’s wildly inconvenient.

I'm coming to you live from my pleasure walk in Jersey (the Channel Island), purple-toothed from roadside blackberries, lavender oil in hand, and a whole sermon in my bones about play, intuition, and letting your biz evolve.

This one is part forest airpod voice note, part love-letter to your creative life force. If you’ve been in “rinse, repeat, scale, scale, scale” mode, consider this your gentle dare to go do something fun ⎯ not as a reward for being productive, but as a strategy for being creative.

If you’ve ever been curious about what it looks like to start a product-based biz, get into retailers, or alchemize your own struggle into something that serves others, you’re gonna eat this convo right up. I had the pleasure of chatting with Catherine and Lauren Lee, endometriosis warriors, founders of Semaine Health, and just all-around powerhouses when it comes to turning pain into purpose. We go deep into their own journeys with endo, PCOS, and IBS, and how what started as pain and suffering became not just relief, but the birth of Semaine Health!

And even if you’re not biz-curious — if you’re just a human with a uterus — this episode is such an inspiring conversation about women’s health, period pain, menopause, stress, and the magic of plants.

If the word selling gives you the ick 🙃 or makes you want to crawl under a blanket and “just hope people find you”…

In this juicy solo riff, I’m sharing why your most aligned sales strategy is the one that mirrors how you serve. And when you’re selling in your zone of genius? It doesn’t just feel better, it works better too.

This episode is all about what it really looks like to create meaningful work over the long haul — especially when the platforms, seasons, and strategies are constantly changing. It’s such a tender, transparent look at pivoting in public, navigating career transitions, and staying devoted to creativity even when things feel murky.

 Okay, real unhinged car pod here for you!

I’ve had it on my to-do list for two weeks to record this episode about meeting your biz where you’re at so today, I’m recording this episode in the car, earbuds in, A/C blasting, and a 20-minute drive ahead of me because we’re not here to build a biz that only works when everything is perfect. We’re here to build a biz that works when you’ve got a sick kid, a full plate, or a much-needed break on the horizon. It actually get's to be easy, babe and I'm so stoked to share this juicy ramble with youuuuu!

Okay, people… you're in for such a juicy conversation with my dear friend Samantha Jo, Pleasure Queen and creator of The Pleasure Codes — a spiritual, somatic method for thriving and exponential growth.

She has such a phenomenal way of approaching pleasure. Honestly, I don’t always resonate with folks in the pleasure space ⎯ sometimes it feels performative or exhibitionist in a way that doesn’t land for me. (Which is funny, because I used to be an actress and love being seen on stage!) But Samantha's work is the polar opposite.

Here’s the thing: the difference between a hobby and a business? It’s money, honeeeey. And we make money by selling our products and services. I used to cringe at all of this (sales felt icky and tacky). But if what you do makes people’s lives better (whether you’re a babysitter, florist, massage therapist, or anything else), then it’s your DUTY to share it. Full stop.

In this episode, I'm walking you through my intuitive framework for lead gen that skips the bro-marketing and starts with this simple truth: Your message matters. And your people can’t buy from you if they don’t know you exist.

If lead gen has felt hard, awkward, or exhausting, this episode is your permission slip to re-imagine it.

Can you make something go viral? Let’s talk about it…

Today’s episode is a juicy book-club-meets-marketing-masterclass moment inspired by my latest read, Contagious by Jonah Berger. This one was originally for my Elevated Mastermind babes (yes, we have a book club because I'm obsessed with #AlwaysLearning) but the takeaways were too good not to share. Think: virality explained, minus the gimmicks, plus essential oils and metaphorical $100 steaks.

Let me just say — this episode with Chelsea Riffe? Whew. It’s the kind of convo that lingers in your mind long after you’ve pressed pause. Think: sunshine-soaked digital nomad wisdom meets Virgo moon strategy meets permission to build a business around your actual capacity (not what some Instagram carousel told you to aim for). 

Recently, I was speaking with some peers, and they were all asking me:

“How do you know when you’re doing enough?”

And I was like, “Oh, that’s easy. I do this, this, this, and this.” And in my head, I was like, doesn’t everybody have systems around enoughness?

And I realized—no, they don’t.

And the reason I have them is because for most of my time running multiple businesses, I didn’t feel like I was doing enough.

I’m human. I’m not going to lie to you and be like, “Oh yes, I’ve cracked the code and I feel like the highest achiever all day, every day.” No. But I have created systems around my expectations of self and output and results so I can actually check out of work on the weekends and exhale.

You are in for such a yummy conversation conversation on love, relationships, and the dance between masculine and feminine energy with my dear friend ⎯ life, relationship, and executive coach Justine Baruch! She's dropping some serious wisdom on how biology, brain chemistry, and energy dynamics impact our relationships.
