Show Notes
#326: You don't have to play fair to win — you just have to play like you know who you are. This week, we’re re-airing a conversation that’s packed with big energy, boss-level insight, and the kind of clarity that only comes from betting on yourself — again and again. Tricia Lee is a serial entrepreneur, luxury real estate broker, and breakout star of Owning Manhattan on Netflix. But before the show, before the million-dollar listings, and long before she was mentoring the next generation — she was figuring it out like the rest of us: building businesses, walking away from things that weren’t working, and learning how to stop shrinking her magic to make other people comfortable. If you're in a season of transition, ready to quit something (or everything), or just need a little reminder of how powerful you already are — this one’s for you.
In This Episode: The real reason Tricia left corporate America — and how she used anger to fuel her glow-up Knowing the difference between a growth challenge and pure chaos (and why perseverance isn’t always the flex) What to do when you're the most prepared and the most underestimated person in the room The truth about pivoting: how Tricia went from beauty entrepreneur to top NYC real estate broker Mental toughness, mindset shifts, and why being your biggest fan isn’t arrogance — it’s freedom How to show up as that version of you, even when you’re still building Advice for women who’ve been conditioned to come in last — and are done with it
This is the kind of conversation that makes you sit taller. Save it. Revisit it. Share it with the friend who needs a nudge to take up more space.

#369: In this week’s episode I’m joined by author, journalist, and birthFUND founder Elaine Welteroth for a special conversation. Recorded live at Create & Cultivate, this conversation turned into church about five minutes in. If you're at the edge of a pivot, or you've realized the hustle that got you here won't get you where you're going, this one's for you. Elaine and I get into how to know when it's time to walk away from something that looks great from the outside, what changes when you measure success by what you give instead of what you get, and how she raised nearly $10 million for maternal health in two years without ever planning to run a nonprofit. This episode is for anyone looking ahead at their next chapter excited for what’s to come. We talk about: Knowing when it's time to pivot, and getting through the waiting that comes after Moving from scarcity to abundance Why it matters for women to talk about money How Elaine’s relationship with ambition has changed in her 20s and 30s The importance of building your own table instead of playing someone else's game Why maternal health affects every one of us, and requires all hands on deck What's next for birthFUND
#368: Y'all called it before I could even say it. Yes, I invested in the beverage brand Sensori! Co-founders Darean and Shanna are back on the show, and since the last time we talked, they've raised almost a million dollars from more than 40 creators (me included) to scale their business instead of going the VC route. Today we’re pulling back the curtain on their fundraising strategy and why I decided to invest. If you've ever wondered whether there's another way to fund a business, you need to hear this one. I also pulled some messy questions from Threads, getting into the nitty-gritty of the raise, and they answered every single one.
#367: I’m starting the fourth quarter off with a solo episode! This week I'm unpacking the advice our grandmothers swore by: you don't have to touch a stove to know it's hot. I'm sharing the lessons I learned the hard way with money, friendships, career, and relationships to help you navigate these areas better. Plus, I'm finally giving you the full update on my first two angel investments, the thesis behind them, and some big news about the show as She's So Lucky turns eight.
#366: If you've ever wondered why some people seem to have opportunities fall into their lap, this conversation is for you. Jessica Nabongo and I get into what luck really looks like when your life is in alignment, how to tell the difference between chasing something and letting it find you, and why getting clear on who you are might be the most powerful thing you can do for your career. She also shares what it's taken to protect her energy, sit with hard seasons, and show up as more than the one thing people know her for.
#365: Three years ago when Blake Newby first joined me on the show, life looked a little different. She was in the thick of her Saturn return, still untangling herself from traditional media, betting everything on herself with zero proof it would work.
