Earn Your Happy

I love conversations that remind you who you are before the world told you who to be. In this episode, I sit down with Cynthia Garcia, Founder of Rewritten Beauty, to talk about what it’s really like to start over in your 40s, the ego deaths that come with reinvention, and the fear that shows up when you leave what you’re known for to answer a deeper calling. Cynthia shares the emotional reality of launching a physical product brand, the pressure of having more to lose later in life, and why an “easy” life can quietly drain your sense of purpose. Tune in to know the difference between a personal brand and a living brand, how to create a category of one, and why people buy who you’ve become.

So many people think networking is about impressing the right people or getting close to whoever’s on stage. But the truth? The relationships that change your life are usually built shoulder-to-shoulder with people growing right alongside you. In this episode, I sit down with Kristina Bartold, co-founder of The Social Snippet and High Vibe Women to talk about how she turned one mastermind investment into years of referrals, speaking opportunities, and lifelong friendships by leading with value, playing the long game, and showing up with zero expectation. We also dive into podcasting as a relationship-building tool, why rooms matter more than algorithms, and how to make meaningful connections without feeling salesy, awkward, or transactional. Get ready to rethink networking and start building relationships that compound for years to come.

One of the biggest mistakes I see entrepreneurs make is trying to do business alone. It can feel safer, easier, or more “efficient” to figure everything out yourself. But the truth is, isolation is quietly costing you momentum, confidence, and growth. In this episode, Chris and I break down why entrepreneurship was never meant to be a solo sport and how the right community can completely change your consistency, decision-making, and standards. We talk about the power of accountability, why group environments normalize high performance (not mediocrity), and how being surrounded by people who are ahead of you accelerates your learning in ways nothing else can. Get ready to rethink how you grow, who you grow with, and why the right room can change your life and business.

For years, I thought something was wrong with me. Why was I so energized by vision and ideas, but completely drained by details and follow-through? In this episode, I sit down with leadership expert Patrick Lencioni to talk about the framework that finally gave me language for what I’d felt my entire life. Pat breaks down the 6 types of working genius and shares why burnout isn’t caused by working too hard, how most of us grow up believing we’re lazy, behind, or not cut out for leadership when in reality, we’re just trying to operate outside of how we’re wired. Tune in to learn why certain tasks light you up while others exhaust you, and how to build a business and life that works for you.

This episode is brought to you in partnership with Working Genius.
