powherfull inc startup stories

This week on Startup Stories, I had the absolute joy of sitting down with the beautiful Tricia Conyers, all the way from Trinidad & Tobago. Tricia is a confidence and empowerment coach who has spent decades helping women grow into their leadership, but what I loved most about this conversation wasn't her incredible résumé... It was her. The woman behind the work. The woman who had a successful...

This is an extra special episode as I just attended one of Carla Geyser's safaris through a 3 way collaboration (her business, Girls Guide to the World and my life coaching company - powherfull inc). Carla is a firecracker! An adventurer, a humanitarian, and an eco-warrior who owns and operates a conservation non profit and a travel adventure company that work together to bring women on safari and...

I can't believe the caliber of women coming on my show and the depth of conversation I hold with them. Dr Sarah Choudhary is IMPRESSIVE - but less so because of her list of accomplishments and more because of who she chooses to be. You see this is the thread in all these episodes - what reality, purpose, permission are you claiming in living your life? Dr Sarah was living in Pakistan, she experien...

Please Google this woman, I want you to see the impact, the identity, the power behind this incredible woman who speaks truth into herself and her life - thus creating an elevation in the world around her. There are no limits except the ones you place on yourself. Carnela Renée Hill is a faith-driven leader, pastor, entrepreneur, and marketplace strategist who moves seamlessly between the pulpit,...

This woman is a GIFT my friend. The more I read her stories, the more my soul breathes, feels and becomes willing to hold more... more joy, more hardship. Kym Coco emailed me with a wicked "resume like" podcast application. I googled her - is this real? She is beyond real. She is soft and strong, sad and ever expanding in love, so open to life, all of it. She has a big story to share, to inspire w...

I have known Tammi for YEARS. We hit it off immediately and have been growing our friendship, online, since we met. But I truly cannot wait to her hug in person one day! Having her on the show has also been years in the making. And you know what, sometimes we can make that mean something about ourselves, the other person, something else. But what I have learned is ALL THINGS IN GOOD TIME. Tammi &a...

This conversation was so rich and so tangible with tiny shifts that you can make throughout your day-to-day to truly change your life. Candice Neveu is a life coach for ambitious, high performing women feeling burn out and unsure of how to change. This is a journey she's walked out in her own life in the last ten years especially. From hating her "good job" and quitting after launching a business,...

What happens when the life you built… no longer feels like it fits? In this episode, I sit down with Stacy Heisey-Terrell, a Career Ownership Coach who spent nearly 30 years in Human Resources before making a bold and deeply personal pivot — from serving organizations to helping individuals design careers that actually serve them. And this conversation? It’s for every woman who has ever felt the q...

Some women build businesses. Some women build solutions that change lives. And some women do both — while still showing up as mothers, partners, and everyday humans navigating the real rhythm of life. In this episode, I sit down with Lindsay Friedman , a four-time business founder whose work is helping families across the USA navigate one of life’s most complex and emotional realities: long-term c...

Juli Miezejeski spent nearly thirty years in the corporate world as a mid-level executive in high-tech, consulting, and publishing. She has an MBA in marketing and management science, by every metric she was “successful” - on the outside. Internally her spirit kept whispering to her - see me, feel this. And it grew in a pivotal moment with an executive coach, at her work, showed her a different wa...

Hi Sister! I am showing up and claiming my authority! As an everyday woman! And that's what I am here to impart to you as well. Your story doesn’t need clarity first. Clarity comes from telling it. You don’t “figure out” your story and then share it. You share it — and it reveals itself. You can build peace in the middle. You can belong without performing. And you don’t have to do it alone. This i...

This guest is a woman I felt called to invite into this space. Reese Sabatini-Blake is a bestselling author, speaker, and holistic mental health expert — but before any title, she is a woman who learned sovereignty early. As a teenager, Reese became hemiplegic (paralysis on one side of the body) and legally blind.
Her body changed. Her world narrowed. Her future was rewritten overnight. From compe...

I have known Vaughn for quite a few years and watched her expand over that time. She has taken off like a rocket. Her awakening started from an external stimuli, but then she realized it was all inside her to unlock. And that has become her life's work and purpose and CALLING. She exudes love, playfulness and vitality. And in setting herself free - from herself - she has created and allowed (ahem...

Lindsay Dam is "barefoot but expensive!" I love the reference because it EMBODIES an identity of certainty and simplicity. I invited this fierce + powherfull woman to the show because she wrote something that shot me through the soul. She experienced something profound, some may call it awful, but she shifted her story and identity of that event into something GOOD. Sitting on Zoom with Lindsay I...

Lindsay Pinchuk is an award-winning entrepreneur, mentor, and the founder of Dear FoundHer…, a community and top 1.5% podcast devoted to supporting women business owners over 40 who are ready to simplify, grow, and lead with clarity.

What if your everyday life isn’t in the way of your calling…but the very place it’s meant to unfold? In this solo episode, I speak directly to the woman who is faithful, responsible, and deeply devoted — yet quietly longing for more of herself. Not more hustle. Not more reinvention. But more aliveness, truth, and trust in who she already is. I share from my own lived experience as an everyday woma...

I’m so excited to introduce you to Sarah Trop — nationally recognized interior designer, HGTV Flea Market Flip champion, and the founder of FunCycled . But beyond the titles and features, Sarah is a woman who has built a business with soul, sustainability, and faith at the center. Sarah’s journey began in her mid-twenties as a mom of two, with a deep desire to work from home, be present with her c...

Tammy Vincent is a woman whose heart has been shaped by both deep compassion and lived experience — the kind of leader who doesn’t just teach healing, but embodies it. She is an author, speaker, and life coach for adult children who grew up with alcoholic parents. Tammy’s work is rooted in a sacred mission: to support and restore the confused, lonely, scared, and often invisible children who didn’...

This was an incredible episode my friend. I was captivated and energetically connected throughout the whole conversation. Dr Neja Zupan's presence immediately slows the room — not because she is quiet, but because she is anchored . The kind of woman whose leadership doesn’t come from force, but from having walked through fire and chosen herself on the other side. Dr. Neja is a Mentor in Multidimen...

This week's guest is a woman who carries both steel and soul — the kind of leader who has lived many lives and now uses every one of them to help other women rise. I’m honored to welcome Chanda Coston — a retired U.S. Navy veteran, strategist, and mentor for women over 40 who are ready to turn their business ideas into real impact, income, and sustainable growth. Chanda brings more than 20 years o...

The Heartbeat of the Everyday Woman Summit In this deeply personal episode, Mia Frankl, of powherfull inc, takes a moment to pause and reflect on the “why” behind the Everyday Woman Summit.

When we connect on common vision we all have a great...
