Show Notes
#334: You can’t manifest what you don’t protect. And if you’re still doing deals in DMs and hoping for the best… we need to talk. In the last episode of the How to Get What You Want series, I’m joined by attorney and tech founder Kameron Monet to get into the parts of the process we don’t romanticize enough: the structure. The contracts. The negotiation. The uncomfortable emails. Because manifestation is cute — but protection is power. Our conversation goes beyond vision boards and affirmations and into the tactical moves that actually secure the life you’re building. We talk about how to negotiate with conviction, what “perpetuity” really means (and why you should care), why you should never start work without a signed agreement, and how to stop leaving money on the table — whether you’re a creator or a corporate girl. If you want more, you need the courage to ask for it and the infrastructure to keep it. This episode is your reminder that getting what you want isn’t just about desire. It’s about protecting your hard work, discipline and clarity with the right education. This episode is for you if… You’ve ever accepted an offer too quickly and regretted it later. You want more money, more opportunities and more ownership but don’t know where to start. You feel intimidated by negotiation and you want to overcome that. You don’t know what the “rule of three” is. You’ve worked without an agreement in place. You’re dipping your toes into the creator economy. You’re new to the world of corporate. You’ve signed contracts without fully understanding the terms.

#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.
