Show me the money! (without the awkwardness!) Let’s be real—talking about salary at work can feel awkward… but it doesn’t have to be! In this episode, I’m joined by my friend and fellow career coach, Yolanda Owens, and we’re talking about how to approach money conversations confidently and clearly. We explore salary transparency—why it matters, how it builds trust, and what companies can do beyond sharing numbers. When done right, transparency can level the playing field, drive equity, and help everyone feel more empowered. Let’s make talking about money feel less taboo and more empowering.

Something magical happens when women come together with open hearts and a shared intention.✨

As the Brave Women at Work: Lessons in Letting Go e-book launches into the world (today!!!), I’m holding onto that sense of connection—because we’re not meant to carry our stories alone.

Have you ever pushed through a long workday only to feel utterly drained—like no amount of caffeine or sleep could recharge you? That exhaustion might signal that it’s time to realign your energy.

In this final episode of Season 7, we’re wrapping up by focusing on energy. Your energy flows through five key dimensions, and everything feels harder when even one is off. Instead of pushing through, try shifting your energy. A slight realignment today can lead to big results.

That’s a wrap on Season 7! I’ll be back in a few weeks, but until then, thank you for listening, sharing, and supporting this show. You mean the world to me!

If the word "networking" makes you cringe or feels like something you should do but secretly avoid, this conversation is for you. In this special episode, I'm joined by my friend and colleague, Julianna Yao Yorgan, host of The Daring to Succeed Podcast. Together, we're diving into a topic that often feels overwhelming but doesn't have to be—networking.

We're here to flip the script and show you that networking isn't about forced small talk, self-promotion, or working a crowded room. It's about authentic, heart-centered connections that support your personal and professional growth.

You'll hear real-life stories, simple strategies, and practical tips to help you build natural and fulfilling relationships—whether introverted, extroverted or somewhere in between.

So, grab your favorite beverage, take a deep breath, and reimagine networking in a way that feels genuine, empowering, and aligned with your heart.
