  1. Why Financial Independence Could Save Your Life with Pattie Ehsaei

    EPISODE 45

    Why Financial Independence Could Save Your Life with Pattie Ehsaei

    This episode is brought to you by AX3 Life. In this powerful and deeply emotional conversation, Pattie Ehsaei shares her journey from fleeing Iran as a child and growing up in poverty in the United States to enduring unimaginable tragedy when her parents died in a murder-suicide while she was just 24 years old. Forced into survival mode, she raised her younger brother, navigated a controlling relationship that mirrored her mother's dependency, and ultimately found the strength to choose herself after a pivotal moment that made her realize she was abandoning her own identity. Pattie went on to rise through the ranks in a male-dominated financial industry, building both wealth and influence, and now uses her platform to advocate for women's financial independence as a form of safety, freedom, and self-worth. At its core, this interview is about resilience, breaking generational patterns, trusting your intuition, and understanding that true empowerment begins when you control your own money—and your own life. 00:00 – Introduction: Why This Story Matters 02:40 – Growing Up Powerful… Then Losing Everything 05:25 – Immigrant Poverty & Learning to Work at 10 Years Old 08:30 – Law School, Debt, and Surviving on Grit 09:40 – The Day Her Parents Died 13:10 – Survival Mode & Raising Her Brother 14:45 – Repeating Her Mother's Pattern in Relationships 19:40 – The Wedding Dress Moment That Changed Everything 22:57 – How She Finally Left 25:00 – Falling Into Finance (By Accident) 27:40 – Becoming the Top Performer in a Male-Dominated Industry 31:45 – Women, Power & Workplace Double Standards 36:40 – Building an Online Voice During the Pandemic 42:58 – Why Financial Independence Is Life-Saving 47:30 – The Question That Stops Time 48:08 – "You Are Unbreakable" 49:24 – Where to Find Patti & Final Words Connect with Pattie:  Instagram: @duchessofdecorum  TikTok: @duchessofdecorum Follow Alexis @alexis_artin Learn more at AlexisArtin.com Fight inflammation and other key hallmarks of aging with astaxanthin and use checkout code LAMN at https://www.AX3.Life/lamn Save 50% on any SoulSway experience with code LAMN50 This is an Operation Podcast production

  2. How Decluttering Your Home Can Transform Your Entire Life with Sabrina Soto

    EPISODE 46

    How Decluttering Your Home Can Transform Your Entire Life with Sabrina Soto

    In this powerful episode of Look At Me Now, Sabrina Soto shares her raw journey from being homeless at 16 after her family lost everything to becoming a successful television host and creator who helps others transform their spaces — and their lives. What begins as a story about design quickly reveals something deeper: how clutter can be unprocessed emotion, how control can become a coping mechanism, and how perfectionism and social media filters distort our sense of self-worth. Sabrina opens up about self-medicating, staying too long in unhealthy relationships, learning to surrender instead of force, and redefining what a "happy life" truly means — not fame or flawless aesthetics, but feeling proud of yourself each day. The episode culminates in a powerful mirror question that reminds us that no matter what we've been through, we are worthy — and, in her words, "a f*cking badass." ----- 00:00 – Meet Sabrina Soto 02:38 – Homeless at 16 05:19 – How a House Can Save You 06:35 – Control as a Coping Mechanism 07:53 – The Psychology of Clutter 10:57 – "Clutter Is Unprocessed Emotion" 13:26 – Surrender vs. Control 24:02 – The Damage of Social Media Filters 27:04 – The Youth Mental Health Crisis 34:39 – "Just Start Again" 37:13 – Don't Give Up Before Your Miracle 41:01 – Forgiveness & Healing 46:06 – The Mirror Question 47:08 – "You're a F*cking Badass" ----- Connect with Sabrina: Instagram: @sabrina_soto Follow Alexis @alexis_artin Learn more at AlexisArtin.com Save 50% on any SoulSway experience with code LAMN50 This is an Operation Podcast production

    He Had the Lifestyle, the Money, the Access—Why It Still Wasn't Enough with Mikey Tableman

    This episode is brought to you by AX3 Life. On this episode of Look At Me Now, Alexis sits down with nightlife executive turned mental health advocate Mikey Tableman for a raw and deeply human conversation about success, emptiness, addiction, and survival. From running VIP experiences at major music festivals and partying alongside celebrities to battling severe anxiety and attempting to take his own life, Mikey opens up about the hidden cost of hustle culture and the illusion that fame or money can fill internal voids. Now sober and nearly 40, he's rebuilding his life through spoken word poetry, his mental health podcast Chaos Controlled, and his nonprofit A Mind Pursuit, dedicated to creating safe spaces for honest conversations—especially for men. This episode is about imposter syndrome, purpose, reinvention, and the courage to keep going when your mind is your biggest opponent.   00:00 – Are You Ready?
