    EP 018: Everything you need know about The Law of One & why should read it ASAP, plus, how to live with spiritual integrity w/ Podcaster, Spiritual Baddie & Entrepreneur, Krista Williams

    Hello, hello everyone! This is a little bit of a mash-up episode with DogEared Book Club and my other podcast, Embody Your Soul. If you haven’t heard of Embody Your Soul, it is an off-shoot of my Psychic Medium practice, and a place to play, learn and expand spiritually. This guest / DogEared Leader is Krista Williams; co-host of Almost 30, Almost30 Membership and the creator of The Life Edit. I was a part of Krista and her co-host, Lindsey’s, program, Your Podcast Pro. This was a 9-week intensive to either get your podcast off the ground or re-vamp it. At the time, I just had DogEared Book Club. But now that I have Embody Your Soul, and it’s the absolute perfect podcast for Krista to be one, I just had to take the opportunity. I take the opportunity to dive into books and the important pieces of literature in Krista’s journey. We then get into the spiritual goodness—living with integrity, spiritual red flags, how to live aligned for you and your peers.

    EP 016 Bookish Series: Imposter syndrome, why we mood read, & unlocking your story through fiction w/ Briana Soler @bribeatris

    Welcome to the April Bookish Series with the freakin perfect amazing goddess Briana Soler, AKA @bribeatris.   Her aesthetic; you’re wandering a new city after finding a surprisingly amazing coffee shop during your stroll. There’s homie knick-knack shops, artists and street performers playing jazz. You then stumble across this bookstore. The sign is tastefully worn. The window has curated book piles with a casual mess, yet flowers in delicate vases and lamps add an elegant laissez faire. You walk in. It’s warm. It smells of leather, denim and black tea leaves. Vintage furniture provides comfort to the space. Tall, dark wood shelves are lined with used, new, favorites and donations. Some books are even tucked into thrifted cabinets with golden knobs. There’s color, there’s language. It feels like home. It feels like you want to sit here and get to know this place.  I don’t know why I haven’t done this BEFORE. But truly, this is the only way I can describe her aesthetic.  This episode really plucked my heart strings on my Soul guitar. We discuss imposter syndrome as a reader, a creator and a writer. We discuss how fictional tales allow us to find our own. We discuss mood reading and how we read, which our weird reader nuances. We discuss how books have created connections far beyond our definition of joy, in the best way.  I can’t wait for you to get cozy and giggle with us.    Connect with her on IG @bribeatris and subscribe to her newsletter, where she writes and rambles her gorgeous musings.    If you haven’t already, leave a review on Apple Podcasts and follow.  Follow me on IG @dogeared.bookclub Go to my website: www.dogearedbookclub.co   Time stamps [00:6:30] Why did you start this account and what inspired your aesthetic?  [00:13:50] How do you decide to read your next book?

    EP 015: Uplifting women & your community through stories w/ CEO, Founder &Multi-faceted Entrepreneur Rachel Svoboda

    Thank you, Rachel, for helping me launch my career. Woohoo! I met Rachel several years ago post-college. I was networking my butt off and I don’t even remember how, but I think I cold-LinkedIn messaged her. I agreed to meet up with her for a mentorship meet-and-greet coffee with her and other young women wanting to network. That morning, thank goodness was a good day for me. She saw my fire and really helped me land a big girl internship as a Copywriter.    Rachel continued to mentor me for a few years. What I really adore about Rachel is her mission is so clear—empowering women in ANY kind of business or venture. After every conversation, I left with high spirits and a fire under my butt.    Any women or anyone at all who wants to network with one of the big shots of Orange County, I urge you to connect with Rachel. Don’t be shy!   Rachel is unstoppable.  Throughout Svoboda’s extensive 20-year career in advertising, she has led prestigious advertising teams at Amusement Park (formerly DGWB), Phelps, and Saatchi & Saatchi, Los Angeles. She is currently CEO at Sunday Brunch Agency. Rachel is a single mother of two and lives in Huntington Beach.   Rachel is also the CEO and Founder of Lynxx bourbon; a bourbon that celebrates female empowerment. She noticed a huge gap in the whiskey market, and noticed that women turn to wine after a long day. Of course Rachel being Rachel, she wanted to change that.    This year, Rachel was elected as a Board of Director at Working Wardrobes and joined the Advisory Board for Girls Inc. Rachel recently launched a streaming video series called, The Brunch Club, where we raise a glass and champion female talent and leadership everywhere. Rachel was named Women of the year by The National Association of Professional Women. She is currently an official MBA mentor at Chapman University and a featured speaker on the university's inaugural Women in Business Association series.   Episode Show Notes Introducing Rachel Svoboda, our stunning amazing April 2022 Leader.  What book are you currently reading and how did you come across it?16:06 What is your earliest memory of reading?27:00 What are your reading rituals?35:31 What books are on your nightstand?50:06 What has been the most motivating book you’ve read?58:06 If you could have an author write about your life, who would it be?1:00:00 What moves you in a work of literature?1:02:15 If you could gift a book to anyone, what would it be and who would it be to?1:04:40 What makes you Dog-Ear a page?1:05:35 Why do you read?1:07:55 What book would you recommend to me?   Books mentioned in episode  Sex at Dawn by Christopher Ryan Dangerous Books for Girls by Maya Rodale The Beautiful and the Damned by F.
