Let’s get real—this is one of the most honest and freeing conversations I’ve had, not just with myself, but with someone who truly gets it. In this episode, I’m joined by Pete Cohen, keynote speaker, author, and internationally renowned coach with over 30 years of experience helping people and organizations move from simply surviving to fully thriving.

Pete has coached Olympic champions, corporate leaders, and some of the most high-performing individuals in the world. In this episode, he brings his signature blend of wisdom, clarity, and radical encouragement to our conversation about intentional thinking, identity, and creating a life that feels deeply aligned.

I’m also opening up about why I took a pause from this podcast—not because I was burned out, but because I felt deeply called to slow down, get quiet, and listen to what my life was trying to tell me. That space gave me the clarity I didn’t know I was missing—and it’s reshaping everything, from my business model to how I define success.

Pete and I also talk about the very human experience of navigating transitions—the messy middle between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming—and how intentional thinking can be a grounding force in that process.

This is a heart-led conversation about doing business, motherhood, creativity, and life differently. More honestly. More freely. More aligned.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

[03:15] | Why I Took a Step Back from the Podcast
I talk about the intuitive pause I felt called to take, how it led to a powerful reset, and why those quieter seasons can be the most transformational.

[06:40] | The Real Reason I’m Restructuring My Business
I open up about what burnout taught me about hustle culture, my own limits, and the importance of honoring the season I’m in.

[10:25] | Embracing Ease Without Losing Momentum
I’m learning to lead with more softness, stillness, and self-trust—and I share how that’s showing up in both my life and business right now.

[15:30] | What Happens When You Release Control
This part gets vulnerable: the magic (and discomfort) of surrendering outcomes, and why that surrender has been essential to my growth.

[21:10] | A New Way to Think About Productivity
I’m redefining what it means to “get things done”—without pushing, proving, or performing.

[28:00] | How My Business Model Was Draining Me
I realized my current structure no longer fits who I am. I share the bold shifts I’m making to create more freedom, flow, and alignment.

[34:45] | The Power of Full Presence in Motherhood and Entrepreneurship
I reflect on what I’m learning about being with what is—instead of holding onto what was or rushing into what’s next.

[40:15] | Reconnecting to Creativity and Content From a Place of Authenticity
When my voice went quiet, I had to learn how to stop forcing content. I talk about how I’m reigniting my creativity from a deeper, truer place.

[47:05] | What’s Next for the Brand and Community
I give you a behind-the-scenes look at what’s evolving—from new offers to the ways I want to serve with even more depth and intention.

I want you to imagine this—your business is growing, you've got sales, you're doing “the thing”… but there’s still that little voice that says, “How do I get to that level? How do I go from being in the game to being the one people can’t stop watching?”

That’s exactly what we’re diving into today. To do things your way. To get visible without the cringe. To finally feel like your business looks, sounds, and feels like you.

In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Kayleigh Greenacre—personal brand queen, iconic leader, and someone who doesn’t just talk the talk when it comes to visibility, positioning, and standing out online… she walks it. Daily. She brings a boldness and clarity that I know so many of you are craving right now.

We talk content that actually connects (and converts), what really sets a leader apart in today’s online space, how to become magnetic without being manic on socials, and yes—we get real about the fears that hold us back and the traps that look like strategy but actually keep us stuck.

Imagine this: It’s a Tuesday, your brain feels like a browser with 38 tabs open, and somehow you’re expected to be everything to everyone—business owner, partner, friend, maybe a parent too—while still making time to drink enough water and act like you’ve got it all together. Sound familiar?

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and getting real with you about something that’s been coming up A LOT lately—in my own life, with my clients, and in conversations with so many women: the myth of “doing it all.”

Because truthfully? Trying to be everywhere, for everyone, all the time… it’s not just exhausting—it’s unsustainable. And it’s time we stop celebrating it.

I’m diving into what “balance” really looks like when you’re running a business, living a full life, and trying not to lose yourself in the middle of it all. We’re talking boundaries, burnout, energy, and the powerful shift that happens when you give yourself full permission to do less, but with so much more intention.

So whether you’re out on a walk, folding laundry, or just taking a moment for yourself, this one’s for you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What I’ve learned to do instead that works a whole lot better.

[06:42] - Real Talk on Boundaries

• How to stop feeling guilty for saying “no” and start honoring our own needs.

• How I set (and stick to) boundaries, and why it’s a radical act of self-respect.

[10:25] - When Hustle Culture Backfires

• The pressure we all feel to “do it all” and why I’m done with that mindset.

[17:38] - Parenting + Business: Can They Coexist?

• Lessons learned as a mom and entrepreneur.

• Highs and lows of trying to balance raising kids with running a business.

[20:50] - Listener Q&A
