    Rethinking Fertility Care: Proactive Health, PCOS, and Building Bird&Be with Samantha Diamond

    What if the greatest barrier to reproductive health wasn’t access—but silence? In this episode of She Has The Audacity, I sit down with Samantha Diamond—CEO and co-founder of Bird&Be—for a timely, compassionate, and deeply personal conversation about fertility, proactive care, and the quiet shame so many women carry when their bodies don’t follow the expected timeline. Samantha shares her own experience navigating PCOS, pregnancy loss, and the overwhelming confusion that followed. Even with unprecedented access to care—her partner, now husband, was an OBGYN in training at the time—she still found herself in the dark, piecing together information from conflicting sources, outdated advice, and the overwhelming pressure to “bounce back” or try again. That experience led her to co-create Bird&Be; a company rooted in evidence-based supplements, accessible testing, and compassionate education designed to give people the tools and knowledge they deserve—before they need them. But this conversation isn’t just about supplements or science. It’s about what happens when we stop waiting for a crisis to care for our bodies. It’s about what it means to integrate wellbeing into our everyday lives—not just in service of fertility, but in honor of our whole selves. And it’s about letting go of the pressure to do it all, and instead, asking: what would it feel like to do what matters, and do it well? Here’s what you’ll take away from this episode: ✨ Why fertility care needs to start earlier ✨ PCOS is common—and treatable ✨ Supplements as part of the puzzle ✨ Beyond hormones: whole-body health ✨ The myth of balance This episode is a reminder that your body is not a project to be fixed. Fertility is not a race. And health—true health—starts with being informed, resourced, and supported before the crisis, not after. 🎧 Listen Now [insert link] Connect with Samantha Diamond & Bird&Be: Website: birdandbee.com Instagram: @birdandbee Use code AUDACITY15 for 15% off your first order If this episode hit home, please leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify—and share it with a friend who needs to know: they don’t have to navigate their health alone. ✨ WORK WITH CHANA ROSS! ✨   Are you an ambitious woman who is a leader at work, at home or in the community and you are looking for support with overcoming perfectionism, determining your next right step, overcoming self-doubt and learning to advocate for yourself and fall in love with the next version of you?

    Healing the Body, Nourishing the Mind: Redefining Health with Laurence Froidevaux

    True health isn’t about quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions, it’s about finding the practices that bring your body, mind, and spirit into alignment. In this episode of She Has The Audacity, I sit down with Laurence Froidevaux, chiropractor, plant-based nutrition expert, holistic health advocate, and author of Ma cuisine végétale—for an inspiring conversation about resilience, nourishment, and the power of small, consistent choices. Laurence’s story is as personal as it is professional. From growing up overweight and struggling with self-worth to navigating heartbreak that pushed her to reimagine her life, she shares how her challenges became the foundation for a career devoted to helping others thrive. Her path took her from medical studies in Switzerland, to chiropractic training in New York to building Plantastique, her platform dedicated to helping people transition to plant-based eating in a way that’s practical, nourishing, and sustainable. Together, we explore what it means to integrate movement, medicine, and mindful nutrition and why health is never just about your body, but about how you live, what you believe, and the choices you make daily. Here’s what you’ll take away from this episode: ✨ How personal challenges can spark purpose and career direction ✨ Why healing isn’t linear—and how setbacks can fuel growth ✨ The connection between nutrition, energy, and everyday wellbeing ✨ Practical insights on transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle without deprivation ✨ Why absolutes in health and diet don’t work—and how to find what works for your body ✨ The role of mindset, self-compassion, and courage in shaping long-term health Laurence’s story is a reminder that health is not about perfection—it’s about creating a life that supports you, body and mind. Her journey shows us that strength can grow from struggle, and that every small choice toward alignment creates lasting change. 🎧 Listen Now [insert link] Connect with Laurence Froidevaux: Website: plantastique.com Instagram: @plantastique Get her cookbook: Ma cuisine végétale: 140 recettes approuvées par une spécialiste de la nutrition If this episode inspired you, please leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and share it with a friend who may need the reminder that their health journey is uniquely theirs—and filled with possibility. ✨ WORK WITH CHANA ROSS! ✨   Are you an ambitious woman who is a leader at work, at home or in the community and you are looking for support with overcoming perfectionism, determining your next right step, overcoming self-doubt and learning to advocate for yourself and fall in love with the next version of you?

    The Messy Middle: Where the Magic Actually Happens

    We all love a good “before and after” story—the big wins, the glossy highlights, the polished endings. But what about everything in between? In this episode of She Has The Audacity, I’m pulling back the curtain on the part no one talks about enough: the messy middle—that awkward, unpredictable, unglamorous space between setting a goal and achieving it. Whether you’re building a business, raising a family, or chasing a personal dream, the messy middle is where most of us spend the majority of our time. It’s where resilience is built, where self-trust is forged, and where the life you’re dreaming of is actually taking shape—one imperfect, beautiful step at a time. With honesty, warmth, and a dose of tough love, I share why this “in-between” season matters more than the finish line, and how you can stop deferring joy until you “arrive.” Because you’re not on your way to becoming enough—you are enough right now. Here’s what you’ll take away from this episode: ✨ Why the messy middle is the main event ✨ How to stop defining success only by metrics ✨ Micro-moments of joy—why they matter now ✨ Holding the paradox of wanting more and being grateful now ✨ Making decisions from your values, not your fears   If you’ve been feeling stuck in the in-between, like you’re not “there” yet or you’re failing at both business and life, this episode is your reminder: this is not wasted time. This is where the magic happens. 🎧 Listen Now!

    Voices, Values & Standing Your Ground: Choosing Integrity with Maureen Leshem

    Leadership isn’t about placement at the top of a hierarchy. It’s about knowing your values and choosing integrity at each step. In this episode of She Has The Audacity, I’m joined by Maureen Leshem, community leader and founder of the 482 Collective, for a compelling conversation about principled leadership, hard choices, and what it takes to speak up when staying silent might be easier.  Maureen shares the origin story of the 482 Collective, a grassroots initiative she built in response to the ways her community was failing women and families in crisis. And when she realized the spaces she once trusted no longer felt safe for Jewish women, she made the difficult decision to walk away from it all. Together we talk about: ✨ How Maureen built a grassroots organization rooted in dignity-first care ✨ The internal reckoning that led her to step away from the community she helped build ✨ What accountability looks like in real time—and why it’s often uncomfortable ✨ Why values-based leadership is about what you do when no one’s watching ✨ How clarity, even when painful, can be the most powerful guide forward Maureen’s story is a reminder that you can lead with both heart and strength—and that walking away is sometimes the most powerful step forward. Connect with Maureen Leshem: Instagram: @maureen_loeshem This episode is a reminder that leadership isn’t just about building—it’s about knowing when to let go. It’s about listening closely, acting boldly, and holding true to what matters most.   ✨ WORK WITH CHANA ROSS! ✨   Are you an ambitious woman who is a leader at work, at home or in the community and you are looking for support with overcoming perfectionism, determining your next right step, overcoming self-doubt and learning to advocate for yourself and fall in love with the next version of you?

    Leading with Intuition, Building with Heart: Redefining Success with Dani Kagan

    Success never looks like the version you planned, and that’s exactly where the magic exists. In this episode of She Has The Audacity, I’m joined by Dani Kagan—entrepreneur, speaker, and co-founder of Mave & Chez— for a thoughtful conversation about evolving identity, creative risk-taking, and building a business that feels just as good on the inside as it looks on the outside. From the ten years she spent running event-based businesses to navigating pregnancy, a pandemic, and a personal need for reinvention, Dani shares how she followed a quiet gut feeling into something completely new: co-founding the first-ever luxury ergonomic slipper brand for women. This is a story about leaving behind what no longer fits, listening closely to the nudges that do, and learning how to lead with vision, clarity, and care. Here’s what we explore in this episode: ✨ The quiet but persistent signs that it’s time to pivot—and what it takes to trust them ✨ Why reinvention doesn’t need to be loud to be powerful ✨ How one phone call (and a shared frustration) led to a business idea with massive potential ✨ What it means to lead with intuition, not just ambition ✨ The difference between fear and resistance—and how to tell which one is speaking Dani’s journey offers a grounded look at what it means to build from alignment rather than urgency. Her insights remind us that you don’t need to wait for certainty to get started—and that you’re allowed to pursue something new, even when what you had was already good. 🎧 Listen now (insert link) Connect with Dani Kagan: Instagram: @dani.kagan Website: danikagan.com Brand: maveandchez.com | @maveandchez This episode is a permission slip to follow your instincts, let go of what’s no longer working, and build something that reflects who you are today, not who you used to be.    ✨ WORK WITH CHANA ROSS! ✨   Are you an ambitious woman who is a leader at work, at home or in the community and you are looking for support with overcoming perfectionism, determining your next right step, overcoming self-doubt and learning to advocate for yourself and fall in love with the next version of you?

We talked about: ✨How simplifying her food routine gave Taylor more time, energy, and freedom ✨Why systems aren’t about control—they’re about clarity ✨How starting small can lead to massive momentum ✨Why structure can create space for creativity, care, and confidence ✨What it means to honor your time and energy without guilt Taylor’s story is a thoughtful, powerful invitation to care for yourself through rhythm and intention.

    The most aligned path forward is the one you create yourself. This week on She Has The Audacity, I’m joined by Robin Radomski—founder of Blonde Eats and Rad Social & Digital—for a grounded conversation about creative growth, personal branding, and how content creation became a career.

    Reframing Visibility: Photography, Presence & the Art of Being Seen with Michele Crockett

    What if being photographed felt like truly being seen for who you truly are? In this episode of She Has The Audacity, I’m joined by Michele Crockett—portrait photographer, educator, artist, and former critical care nurse—for a soulful, story-rich conversation on the power of presence, creativity, and redefining what it means to be visible. Michele isn’t just creating portraits—she’s creating a new model of visibility. One that’s rooted in authenticity. In joy. And in the belief that every woman deserves to see herself reflected with kindness. With over two decades of experience behind the lens and in the classroom, Michele brings both artistic intuition and relational wisdom to her work. Her approach to photography goes far beyond capturing a “perfect shot”—it’s about building trust, honoring the whole person, and helping women feel safe, confident, and deeply seen. We talk about the challenges many women face when stepping in front of the camera—especially after years of putting themselves last—and how photography, when approached with care, can become a powerful tool for self-expression and personal transformation. We go deep on: ✨ Why so many women struggle with being visible—and what it really means to feel safe in front of the camera ✨ How Michele’s nursing background gives her a unique ability to hold space, build trust, and guide people into comfort ✨ The myth that creativity has to wait until life is calmer—and how Michele continued to create even in the chaos of motherhood ✨ Her philosophy on joy, imperfection, and how photography becomes a collaborative process between artist and subject ✨ The role of storytelling and self-image in building a brand that feels honest, grounded, and aligned Connect with Michele Crockett: Instagram: @michelecrockettphotography Website: michelecrockettphotography.com This conversation is a reminder that visibility isn’t just about showing your face—it’s about claiming your space. Michele reminds us that beauty is not found in flawless angles or perfectly curated moments. It’s found in laughter. In connection. In being fully present and unapologetically yourself. If you’ve ever felt camera-shy… if you’ve ever wished you could look at a photo and recognize the real you… if you’re ready to step into your light and tell your story on your own terms—this episode is for you. Because when women feel safe to be seen, they start to see themselves differently. And that changes everything.   ✨ WORK WITH CHANA ROSS! ✨   Are you an ambitious woman who is a leader at work, at home or in the community and you are looking for support with overcoming perfectionism, determining your next right step, overcoming self-doubt and learning to advocate for yourself and fall in love with the next version of you?
