They share how speaker Sheri Engstrom introduced the Four Chambers framework and got attendees moving their bod...

Send us Fan Mail Your teachability index is the number most people never calculate. It predicts whether any class, seminar, or challenge you invest in will actually move you forward.

The event brought together attendees and six expert speakers across two six-hour virtual days, and this ep...

Send us Fan Mail Side hustle income does not require startup capital, a business degree, or a grand plan. It requires you to look at what is already in your life and ask one question: how can I monetize this? In Part 2 of this conversation, serial entrepreneur and Side Hustle Samurai Bart Merrell picks up exactly where he left off, with the cliffhanger. In March 2024, Bart lost his lower left leg....

Send us Fan Mail Monetizing what you already know is the fastest path to financial security, and serial entrepreneur Bart Merrell has been proving that since he was 15 years old. Bart grew up in a small farming town in southern New Mexico, watching his father build income streams across multiple agricultural businesses without ever sitting Bart down for a formal lesson. What he learned instead cam...

Send us Fan Mail Somatic intelligence is not a wellness trend. It is a science-backed operating system for leaders who are done performing on empty. In Part 2 of this conversation, Megan McDonald moves from story into practice. She guides Natalie Davis and Pamela Cass, along with every listener, through a live somatic experiencing session using the five senses to return the nervous system to a reg...

An emergency hysterectomy, a skin cancer diagnosis, and a health crisis she almost did not survi...

In the second half of this conversation, Natalie Davis and Pamela Cass go deeper with Steve Barton, founder of Steve Barton Coaching and creator of the Game of 10, a high-performance awareness framework used by executives, entrepreneurs, and leaders who are done letting fear, guilt, and self-doubt run the sh...

Steve is a high-performance awareness coach, entrepreneur, and author with over 45 years...

Send us Fan Mail When you’re told “we don’t have anything more for you,” the real question becomes brutally simple: what do you do next? We talk with Nancy about chronic pain, opioid use that kept her alive but did not give her a life, and the moment she realised pushing harder was actually hurting her. What follows is not a neat comeback story. It’s a clear-eyed look at identity loss, grief, and...

Send us Fan Mail You can muscle through a deadline, a setback, even a broken heart, but what happens when you try to muscle through your own body? We sit down with Nancy Deo, a former Silicon Valley CEO and Stanford Distinguished Careers Institute fellow, whose search for redemption after a devastating business loss led her to climb Mount Kilimanjaro with an already injured back. What followed was...

Send us Fan Mail The moment your health slips, it’s tempting to blame discipline. We take a different route and it starts with one question: what else is going on in your life that your body is carrying? Together with Victoria, we talk about the “overlay” of wellness, how relationships, stress, and loss bleed into every so-called silo, and why a doctor asking about your real life can be more heali...

Send us Fan Mail Grief doesn’t always show up as tears at a funeral. Sometimes it shows up as rage in the checkout line, a body that feels like it’s failing you, or a quiet belief that you have to handle everything alone. We sit down with Victoria, owner of Unleashed Heart LLC, an advanced certified grief recovery specialist and end-of-life doula who brings a rare mix of evidence-based grief work...

Send us Fan Mail Your closet is full, yet you still feel like you have “nothing to wear.” That isn’t a style problem, it’s a memory and decision problem, and it drains energy before your day even starts. We sit down with Lacey to unpack a smarter approach: a digital wardrobe that helps you catalogue what you own, generate fresh outfit combinations with AI, and finally stop rebuying the same basics...

Send us Fan Mail Your closet might be doing more than holding clothes. It might be quietly adding stress, feeding decision fatigue, and exposing you to materials you have never once seen listed on a tag. We sit down with Lacey Kazoo McLean, founder and CEO of Rubia, to unpack the hidden problem inside modern professional fashion and the surprisingly hopeful ways to fix it. We talk about what pushe...

Send us Fan Mail The hardest part of starting over isn’t always the big stuff like a job, a home, or a fresh start on paper. It’s the moment someone cuts the line, your body tenses, your heart races, and you realize the outside world runs on a different set of rules. We sit down with Jesse Crosson to talk about prison reentry, resilience, and what it really takes to build a steady life when chaos...

Send us Fan Mail One bad chapter doesn’t have to be the last, but what does it actually take to believe that when the consequences are real? We talk with Jesse Crossen, founder of Second Chancer Foundation and author of The Best Part of Prison, about the uncomfortable truth behind transformation: it often starts after the collapse, when you can’t run anymore. Jesse shares how a lifelong sense of n...

Send us Fan Mail Probate doesn’t just cost money, it costs time, focus, and peace while you’re already grieving. Natalie Davis and Pamela Kat sit down with Rachel “The Money Maven” Gonzalo to talk about the real-life moments that force financial clarity: a parent’s house stuck in probate during COVID, out-of-state headaches, and the painful lesson that “I thought everything was in place” can be da...

Send us Fan Mail A divorce can blow up your “someday” plan. A cancer diagnosis can make time feel loud. Rachel Gonzalez lived both, plus the grief of losing her parents, and she made a decision that changed everything: her pain would not be wasted. We sit down with Rachel, the founder of The Money Maven, to talk about resilience that’s built in real life not in a quote on a wall. We get into the m...

Send us Fan Mail You can be “successful” and still be running on empty and sometimes it takes a life event to make that impossible to ignore. We sit down with Ayumi for a candid, deeply human conversation about leadership, self-care, and what changed when she faced breast cancer while still trying to keep work moving. We talk about the pressure to look normal, the decision to be open with a team w...

Send us Fan Mail Grief and grit sit side by side today. We start by remembering Dr Molador and the imprint he left through his work, his humour, and the community around this show, then we turn to a story that captures what “reignite resilience” looks like in real life when the ground shifts under you. Our guest, Ayumi, is an executive managing director at Corcoran, supporting agent success across...

Send us Fan Mail A single season can change everything: career, identity, relationships, and what you thought you could handle. We sit down with Heather for a raw, steady conversation about what it takes to rebuild when life turns unsafe and your mind starts believing there is no way out. Her story moves from ambition and growth into domestic violence, stalking, and the brutal reality of disentang...

Send us Fan Mail When you’re running on empty, the hardest part is admitting it and the bravest part is asking for support. We open by leaning into community and sending love and prayers to Dr John Molador, reminding ourselves that resilience is not a solo sport and caregivers carry weight too. Then we sit down with Heather Washburn, managing broker at ReMax Alliance in Windsor, Colorado, to trace...

Send us Fan Mail Your calendar can be packed and you can still feel depleted. We get into that uncomfortable gap between “I’m doing everything” and “why don’t I feel fulfilled,” and we name the pattern a lot of high performers fall into: overcomplicating the plan until busy becomes a hiding place. We share what we noticed after a fresh coaching experience, including the moment it clicked that succ...

Send us Fan Mail The moment you say yes and your stomach drops, you’re not being dramatic, you’re getting data. We talk about that exact feeling and what it reveals about burnout, overcommitment, and the sneaky way “side quests” steal your time and energy. Pamela Cass and I also share the wild coincidence of booking the same day on a new YouTube coaching show, then realising what that actually mea...
