    How to Live a More Intentional Life: My Conversation with Shira Gill

    Today I am talking with the sensational Shira Gill about her  gorgeous new book, Lifestyled: Your Guide to a More Organized and Intentional Life. Shira Gill is a globally recognized home organizing expert and bestselling author with a minimalist philosophy. She has inspired thousands of people to clear clutter from their homes and lives, and developed a process and toolkit that anyone can employ, regardless of budget, space, or lifestyle. In addition to LifeStyled, Shira is the author of Minimalista and Organized Living, and has been featured in 100+ print and media outlets including Good Morning America, Architectural Digest, Vogue, Real Simple, and The New York Times.  For her latest book, Shira interviewed some of the most intentional, organized people on the planet and found there were three KEY themes running through each of their lives. Fascinated, and inspired by what she had learned, she began to apply these same themes in her own life, and watched the subsequent transformation. Lifestyled gives us access to these themes, along with the systems and habits that will unlock a more intentional life. Here’s how to find Shira: Links: www.shiragill.com  @shiragill Newsletter + Community   Books: Organized Living Minimalista LifeStyled This conversation with Shira was so clarifying, I’ve decided to wind down Season 5  in order to regroup and recharge on the podcast front.

    Beyond Anxiety: My Conversation with Dr. Martha Beck

    DR. MARTHA BECK IS ON MY SHOW THIS WEEK!!!!!!   Sorry. I have ZERO chill about this episode.   If it were a Friends episode, it would be called:   The One Where Bronwyn Meets Her Hero and Learns to Stop Being So Anxious.   Or maybe   The One When Dr. Martha Beck Changes All of Our Lives and Cures Our Anxieties.   But, because I am trying to act like a grown up and not a teenage fangirl, the episode is actually called Beyond Anxiety: My Conversation with Dr. Martha Beck.   Every few years, Martha Beck publishes a book that melts my face off with its insight and warmth (ahem The Way of Integrity, The Joy Diet, Steering by Starlight), and I am THRILLED to share that she is about to do it again.    This time, Dr. Beck is tackling the issue of our modern age with her new book Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose, which will drop January 7, 2025.   This conversation was everything I hoped it would be and has profoundly impacted the way I move through my life. My hope is that it does the same for you.   In case you’ve been living under a rock and you’re not familiar with her work, let me break it down …   Dr. Martha Beck, PhD, is a New York Times bestselling author, coach, and speaker. She holds THREE Harvard degrees in social science, and Oprah Winfrey has called her “one of the smartest women I know.” Martha is a passionate and engaging teacher, known for her unique combination of science, humor, and spirituality. Her recent book, The Way of Integrity: Finding the Path to Your True Self, was an instant New York Times Best Seller and an Oprah’s Book Club selection.   Here’s where you can find her on the Interwebs … (and I can personally recommend her online courses. I’m still using the skills I learned from a writing course I took years ago):   Dr. Beck's Website:  https://marthabeck.com Dr. Beck's upcoming book: Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose IG: https://www.instagram.com/themarthabeck/   Shine on, my friend.

    How to Become "Super Psyched" and Live the Life You Want: My Conversation with Dr. Adam Dorsay

    VERY few people have appeared on my podcast as many times as my guest this week, Dr. Adam Dorsay. We’ve talked about men and their emotions … we’ve talked about the power of adult friendship … Adam helped guide us during the early days of the pandemic … and NOW he is here to help us become SUPER PSYCHED, which also happens to be the title of his new book. Adam wrote this book in an effort to help us solve the great crisis of our time—disconnection. He makes an incredibly compelling argument that if you look at what ails us the most, it can be traced back to disconnection. But rather than simply worship the problem, Adam has written us a roadmap describing the 4 types of connection, allowing us to find our way back to each other and to ourselves so that we can live lives we love. This conversation will inspire you and unlock a whole new level of joy in your life. In case you’re new around here, let me give you some background on Adam. Dr. Adam Dorsay is a licensed psychologist and executive coach in Silicon Valley where he serves high-achieving adults (including professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, and professional athletes). Adam is the host of SuperPsyched, an award-winning podcast, and he’s given two highly regarded TEDx Talks: one about men and their emotions and the other about friendship in adulthood. His book on the topic of the four ways people connect will be available later this year. Beyond his private practice, Adam is a resiliency expert who co-created an international program for Facebook’s Online Safety employees for several years. He now serves as the resiliency consultant to DigitalOcean and has frequent requests from the media for interviews and corporations to provide keynotes and training.   Resources Mentioned✨ Adamdorsay,com Super Psyched Podcast Super Psyched Book "Friendships in Adulthood: 5 Things to Know" "Emotions: The Data Men Miss" Dr. Adam Dorsay’s Instagram Shine on, my friend.

    Female Founders & Fundraising: Harnessing the Power of What We Can Control. My Conversation with Jessie Gabriel

    I love having conversations with smart, powerful women about money.    This time, I turn my focus to funding and fundraising. And I am delighted to have Jessie Gabriel as my wingwoman. Jessie Gabriel is founder and CEO of All Places, a first-of-its-kind, mission-driven law firm working to close the gender equity gap in capital markets.   Jessie and I covered a lot of ground, including:   Her “money story” and how this story affected her. How female and female-identifying founders are affected by negative money stories, and how to shift those negative narratives into strategies that get them funded.  How male founders typically think about growth and scale and what we can learn from them (or unlearn from them). How we can focus on those things we can control in fundraising environments that often seem rigged (and NOT in our favor).   What I loved most about this conversation was learning how Jessie was raised by a single working mother in Southern California, a woman who struggled economically to provide for her family. In other words, Jessie's success comes with a deep appreciation of how gender norms and unequal access to capital contribute to a systemic lack of opportunities for women-identifying entrepreneurs and executives. Jessie has worked at some of the country’s most prestigious firms, including Cravath, Swaine & Moore and BakerHostetler, where she was the youngest woman to lead her own team and launched the firm’s first Investment Funds practice. Her wisdom and words are solid gold, and I can’t wait to share them with you.   Resources ✨   Jessie's LinkedIn   All Places Website   All Places Instagram   The Outset Branding Firm   Shine on, my friend! ✨

As the longtime resident astrologers for ELLE Magazine and the authors of over 20 books, Ophira and her twin sister Tali are advisors to a roster of CEOs, celebrities, global leaders and successful entrepreneurs including Beyoncé, Dua Lipa, and Emma Roberts.

The book is called The Astrology Advantage: Use Your Horoscope for Personal & Professional Success and it drops NEXT WEEK! I’ve always loved the Enneagram, Meyers Briggs and DISC for understanding our collective differences, but it’s overwhelming to try and remember all of the permutations and personality types as you navigate difficult conversations and situations.  Ophi is here to teach us The I*AM System, a simple, easy to remember framework that distills the energy of your full birth chart into a single archetype, unlocking personal productivity, and team harmony. It's simple (just THREE archetypes to remember), *deep* and shockingly accurate. And if you’re clutching your pearls, wondering what a "serious" business person like me is doing dabbling in astrology … unclutch and give this a listen.  Resources Mentioned ✨ Astrostyle.com The Astrology Advantage Live Events with the Astrotwins Follow Ophi on Instagram Follow the Astrotwins on Instagram Shine on, my friend.

    I'll Be There For You: My Conversation About Adult Friendship with Dr. Adam Dorsay

    I’ve got another banger from the archives … The topic of adult friendship is one we don’t talk about nearly enough, especially given that loneliness is actually as dangerous as smoking.

In case you don’t know him, Dr. Adam Dorsay is a licensed psychologist and executive coach in Silicon Valley where he serves high-achieving adults (including professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, and professional athletes). Adam is the host of SuperPsyched, an award-winning podcast, and he’s given two highly regarded TEDx Talks: one about men and their emotions and the other about friendship in adulthood.

    Dismantling Toxic Teen Achievement Culture: My Conversation with Denise Pope, Ph.D

    This week’s podcast episode* is focused on something that has literally been keeping me up at night— getting my kids into college. My firstborn child is headed to Boston University in the Fall. But I’m not gonna lie … the process was excruciating.    Someone who has been ringing the alarm bells on what has become a “toxic achievement culture” in the U.S. is the amazing Denise Pope, Ph.D.   Dr. Denise Pope is a senior lecturer at Stanford’s Graduate School of Education, and co-founder/strategic advisor at Challenge Success. She is the author of, “Doing School”: How We Are Creating a Generation of Stressed Out, Materialistic, and Miseducated Students (Yale University Press, 2001), which was awarded Notable Book in Education by the American School Board Journal, 2001, and co-author of Overloaded and Underprepared: Strategies for Stronger Schools and Healthy, Successful Kids (Jossey-Bass, 2015).   Denise and I get VERY real on why even the most well-resourced kids are suffering, crashing, and burning in this insane drive to get into the “right” schools.   Gems: ✨How to help your kids define “success” in terms that contribute to actual satisfaction and well being. [4:16] ✨The game changing, life changing magic of sleep … and why most teenagers aren’t getting enough of it. [9:30] ✨The one thing you can do as a parent to cultivate authentic resilience in your teen. [24:11] ✨What the college ratings system does and does not reveal about “top” universities in the U.S. [30:02] Resources: Connect with Denise Pope: https://www.facebook.com/ChallengeSuccess https://www.instagram.com/challengesuccess https://www.linkedin.com/company/895857 https://www.linkedin.com/in/denise-clark-pope/ Books / articles: Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams by Matthew Walker, Ph.D. A “Fit” Over Rankings: Why College Engagement Matters More Than Selectivity “P.D.F. Tips” Challenge Success   *(Note: If you do not have kids, or don’t yet feel any kind of low-grade panic about the College Industrial Complex, this might not be the episode for you. On the other hand, this is affecting so many young people, it is an issue that will eventually touch us all.)
