  1. From Heartbreak to Hope: A 4-Year IVF Journey, Embracing Donor Eggs & the Path to Motherhood with Camille Guaty, Actress and Infertility Advocate

    6 DAYS AGO

    From Heartbreak to Hope: A 4-Year IVF Journey, Embracing Donor Eggs & the Path to Motherhood with Camille Guaty, Actress and Infertility Advocate

    You may recognize her from her roles on TV and in movies, including her most recent role as Detective Silva in Harold and the Purple Crayon. Still, actress and infertility advocate Camille Guaty has an even bigger story to share. The story that led her to play the most important role of her life - playing mother to her beloved five-year-old son Morrison. Working in the entertainment industry can be tough for actresses who want to become mothers, and it can be especially difficult for actresses who wait until later in life to have children. So when Camille tried to get pregnant at 38, she knew it would be challenging, but she faced a challenge she never expected: infertility. She went on to endure a four-year IVF journey of relentless effort and heartache – a journey that saw her through 21 of her embryos that didn’t take, an emotional pivot to using a donor egg and navigating the painful grief of letting go of the traditional path to motherhood. In her personal story, Camille shares the difficulty of finding a donor, her heartbreak when a donor attempt failed, and her emotional breakthrough after a second embryo took. Her story is one of resilience, acceptance, and ultimate joy, a testament to the strength it takes to embrace the unconventional and find light in the dark.  Thanks for listening!  Don't forget to order Rebecca's new book, Fearless: The New Rules for Unlocking Creativity, Courage, and Success.

    From College Startup to Gen Z Success: Starting Young, Innovating, and Co-Founding with Mom with Amanda Zuckerman, Co-Founder of Dormify

    According to Urban Dictionary, "dormify" means "to decorate your living space with cool, trendy, hip fashion." It was added in 2011, the same year Dormify, the powerhouse brand behind the growing Internet trend for designer dorm rooms, was officially launched. Co-founded by Amanda Zuckerman and her mom, this brand has transformed dorm and small-space living into something chic, personalized, and functional.  As Amanda stood in the aisles of Bed Bath & Beyond with her mom in 2009, trying to find dorm room essentials, she couldn't find bedding suitable for dorm room beds, let alone something stylish. She realized she was having a lightbulb moment. She planned to create a brand dedicated to students getting ready for college. With encouragement from her mother, Amanda co-founded Dormify at 18 years old from her dorm room. Over the past 13 years, Amanda’s college startup success has helped countless millennials create the dorm room of their dreams and now Gen Z (and soon-to-be Gen Alpha) are catching on to the growing trend. Throughout her entrepreneurial journey, Amanda has learned the best way to navigate the co-founder relationship between mother and daughter, how to adapt to the needs of a new generation while innovating new products, and how to find her rhythm as a young founder. With so much success already under her belt, Amanda is looking forward to the next evolution of Dormify, transitioning to the go-to brand for all your pivotal life moments, from decorating your first apartment to your baby nursery.  Thanks for listening!  Don't forget to order Rebecca's new book, Fearless: The New Rules for Unlocking Creativity, Courage, and Success.

    Unlocking Holistic Health: How Women Can Balance Hormones & Take Control with Dr. Taz, Author of The Hormone Shift

    In the Western medical system, healthcare is often used to treat symptoms and diagnose illnesses rather than considering the whole person and addressing the root cause. As women's hormones fluctuate and change, this system often fails them because most doctors do not think holistically. Dr. Taz Bhatia, a double board-certified integrative physician and author of The Hormone Shift is on a mission to change all of that beginning with the way we think about medicine and women’s health. According to Dr. Taz, approximately 40 percent of women are gaslit during medical encounters. After experiencing this first-hand in her twenties with her health challenges, she knew something had to be done. Initially studying Western medicine and working in the ER for 12 years, Dr. Taz went on to study integrative medicine and eventually opened CentreSpringMD. As a holistic and integrative health pioneer, Dr. Taz stresses how crucial it is for women to take control of their health, beginning with getting their hormones tested and putting together a team of health experts to guide them. If you're looking for more ways to get started on your holistic health journey be sure to check out Dr. Taz’s book The Hormone Shift.

    Breaking the Stigma: Menopause, Women’s Health & Oprah’s New Insider Community with Pilar Guzmán, Editorial Director of Oprah Daily

    As a trailblazer for women everywhere, Oprah has always been a leading voice regarding subjects such as weight loss and women's health. Over the years, Oprah has used her voice to tell stories across many media channels from The Oprah Winfrey Show to O, The Oprah Magazine.  Now that the media landscape has changed, Oprah Daily is the new home for all of Oprah's content, and its Editorial Director, Pilar Guzmán, oversees all of it. After running three major publications as Editor-in-Chief, Pilar has extensive experience in running magazines, both in print and online. Having led culture-changing conversations about motherhood at her magazine Cookie, and now menopause at Oprah Daily, Pilar isn't afraid to address uncomfortable topics. As part of Oprah's mission to share thoughtful stories online, Pilar helped to launch the September issue, which focuses on women's health and why menopause has been silenced for so long. Pilar hopes to help destigmatize the shame attached to menopause and to help women become better advocates for their health.

    Breaking Barriers in Music: From Underdog to Top Music Exec & AAPI Mentor with Wendy Ong, Global Co-President of TaP Music

    Even today, it is nearly unheard of for a woman to break into the still largely white male-dominated music industry and rise the ranks to run a label or artist management company. And the amount of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) women at the top is even smaller. Despite all odds, that’s exactly what Wendy Ong, Global Co-President / Chief Marketing Officer of artist and management company TaP Music did.  Wendy knows the importance of sharing her story. She has decades of experience working for major labels, including BMG, Arista, Capitol, and Roc Nation, and has helped put artists like OutKast and Dua Lipa (along with many others) on the global stage. However, as a young Asian woman from Signgapore, new to America without any contacts or knowledge of American culture, Wendy had to hustle her way in and frequently encountered difficult challenges that left her in tears. Due to her experiences, Wendy strives to be a mentor for AAPI music executives that she never had. Finding her home at TaP music, Wendy now manages some of the top solo female artists in music today as she understands the unique challenges women in the music industry face.
