Well Lived Society is for the woman who leads everywhere, not just at work. Hosted by Lemon Price, this podcast is for women who want a board seat and know how to set a Martha-worthy table. Those who are crushing it when they volunteer and are intentional about how they spend their money. Women who are done with AI-generated advice, perfectionism spirals, and the idea that leadership only counts when someone's watching. Every week, we talk about the real stuff: civic engagement, hosting well, finances, executive presence, navigating AI without losing your voice, and what it actually looks like to lead with intention in every single area of your life. This is whole life leadership. And you're in the right place.

    Philanthropic Giving & Decision-Making | Building Wealth With Purpose with Financial Advisor Nicole Meihofer

    Send us Fan Mail If you've ever walked out of a meeting with a financial advisor feeling more behind than when you walked in, this episode is for you. Nicole Meihofer spent years doing high-level financial planning for families with nine-figure exits — the kind of wealth strategy most women never get access to. She left Merrill Lynch in 2018 to change that. Today, she runs PearlVest Capital, a woman- and minority-owned firm, and every client engagement starts with the same question: What does enough actually look like for you? It sounds simple. It will rearrange everything. In this conversation, Nicole walks through the two numbers every woman needs to know — your monthly thrive number and your investment number — and why your decision-making around money changes completely once you know both. We also get into the investment vs. expense mindset shift (yes, your cleaning person counts), why she retired the word "budget" entirely, and what the Wolf of Main Street gets right that Wall Street never will. This is the financial planning conversation most women never get invited into. You're invited. In this episode: The two-number framework that grounds every financial decisionWhy your decision-making around spending looks different when you're the breadwinnerInvestment vs. expense, and why the distinction changes your bank statementThe Wolf of Main Street framework (and why it's the one worth following)What "enough" looks like when it's actually yoursConnect with Nicole LinkedIn Website Enjoy the episode, everyone!

    Self-Trust and Internal Decision-Making for Women Leaders

    Send us Fan Mail You don't have a confidence problem. You have a self-trust erosion problem — and there's a big difference. Most women in leadership have spent years building external credibility: the bio, the board seat, the reputation. But nobody taught us to trust the voice that already knew. In this episode, Lemon breaks down exactly why women stop trusting their own judgment, from the language used about little girls to code-switching to outsourcing our thinking to AI,and gives you three concrete practices to rebuild it. We cover the small decision practice that builds the muscle without the stakes, the evidence journal that gives your brain proof your gut can be trusted, and the pre-mortem question that cuts through every major decision faster than anything else. The women who end up in the rooms where decisions are made aren't more certain than you. They're just more practiced at trusting their own read. 🔗 Download the Board Readiness Self-Assessment 🔗 Apply for the Civic & Board Fellowship — one free seat being given away Enjoy the episode, everyone!
