When Your Personal Life Impacts Your Business

You can leave your desk, but you can't really leave your life. In this week's Conversation,s Worth Your While episode, Serena Mastin, founder of Pulse Marketing, joins me to talk about what actually happens when your personal life spills into your business, AND the five-part framework she uses to help people show up honest without falling apart. While most of us try to keep our personal lives private at work, they are never truly separate from our business lives, no matter how hard we try to keep the two apart. During this episode, my guest and I both share personal stories. You'll hear about Serena's childhood in witness protection, losing her husband while they ran a business together, and what it taught her about the difference between hiding and healing. As well as my own story of losing my husband suddenly twenty years ago, when I was raising three young kids alone and still had to show up at work the next week. I'll tell you about the boss who gave me the most generous gift I've ever received at work. If you have ever felt like you were wearing a mask just to get through a workday, this conversation is for you. GUEST BIO Serena Mastin is the founder of Pulse Marketing Inc.

The Hidden Tool You Have to Find Your True Path

If you've ever made a big decision and then spent months wondering whether you got it right, this conversation will give you a much simpler place to start looking for the answer. In this episode of Conversations Worth Your While, I sit down with Wayfinder life coach and somatic movement facilitator Arlyn Alderdice to talk about the body compass, the internal guidance system every one of us already carries, and almost none of us were taught to trust. Arlyn and I dig into what a genuine "yes" actually feels like in the body, what a hard "no" feels like, and the things that get in the way of hearing it clearly, from old trauma to well-meaning overthinking. GUEST BIO: Arlyn Alderdice is a Wayfinder Life Coach trained to incorporate Internal Family Systems Protocols in her work, as well as a SomaSource Leader trained as a Somatic Movement Facilitator. She helps people access their full being aliveness, access calm, and tap into the potency of their body wisdom, inner presence, and aligned clarity. So you want to connect with Arlyn?

How to Cultivate Unshakeable Confidence for a Regret-Free Life

If you have been waiting for the fear to disappear before you finally do the thing you really want to do, this conversation will completely change your thoughts about confidence. During this week on Conversations Worth Your While, I sit down with Nataliya Kapitanova of NK Coaching to talk about why so many of us get trained out of our own confidence somewhere between childhood and adulthood, and how to build it back, not by pushing through fear, but by learning to trust ourselves the way we would trust a good friend. Together, we explore reparenting your inner child, why meeting your own needs is the real foundation of self-trust, and the small mindset shift that changes everything. You are not afraid to fail. You are afraid to be seen trying. If you have been waiting for the fear to disappear before going after what you want, this conversation will show you why that day may never come, and why you do not need it to. GUEST BIO Nataliya Kapitanova is the founder of NK Coaching, where she helps women build the confidence to do the things they have been too afraid to try, so they can live full, regret-free lives. She approaches confidence as a byproduct of your relationship with yourself, rebuilding self-trust rather than simply pushing through fear. You want to get in touch with Nataliya?

Why Solopreneurs Feel So Alone (and How Storytelling Fixes It)

If you have ever felt like the only entrepreneur still guessing your way through pricing, networking, and plain old loneliness, this conversation is for you. This week on Conversations Worth Your While, I sit down with Trish Tonaj, founder of ShareYourStories.online, to talk about why solopreneur isolation is so common, and how sharing your real story, instead of handing out another business card, is becoming the actual engine behind warm referrals and small business visibility. We also get into the pricing conversation almost every entrepreneur avoids, and why your value has nothing to do with what your equipment costs you. If you left a corporate career to build something of your own, or you are simply tired of networking that feels like selling, this one will stick with you. GUEST BIO: Trish Tonaj is the founder and host of ShareYourStories.online, a platform built to help small business owners be seen, heard, found, and hired through authentic storytelling. Her values center on walking the walk of entrepreneurship, and she built ShareYourStories.online as a way to give back to the broader business community. So you want to get in touch with Trish?

How to Escape the Trap of Your Own Thoughts

Your mind replays the same painful scene, and you wonder why you can't just move on. It's exhausting when your thoughts run in circles, and it turns out the trap isn't the memory itself, it's how your brain stored it. In this episode of Conversations Worth Your While, I sit down with Dr. Pollyanna Chavez, NLP, hypnosis expert, and co-founder of Next Level Pro Institute, to explore how to escape the trap of your own thoughts. We get into how your brain encodes painful memories, why your mind keeps you looping through the same movies even when they hurt, and simple NLP techniques you can try in the next five minutes: pausing the mental movie, shrinking it down, and swapping the words can't, have to, and should for language that puts you back in choice. I also share my own decades in a place I call Victimville, the land of hoping and waiting, and the shifts that finally got me out. If overthinking, negative thought loops, or old memories have been running your life, this conversation will hand you the remote. GUEST BIO Dr. Pollyanna Chavez is the co-founder of Next Level Pro Institute. She co-founded the institute because she kept seeing talented, heart-centered practitioners doubt themselves when client results came slowly. Next Level Pro Institute trains them in applied NLP and hypnosis that they can use immediately, so their clients shift faster and they walk into every session with real confidence.

Stop Hoarding Your Brilliance: How to Attract Clients Through Speaking

There is a lot of pressure to be "perfect" before you put yourself out there as a speaker. You look at those TEDx speakers with their flawless timing, and you think, "I’ll do that when I’m as polished as they are." But here is the truth: while you are waiting to be shiny and perfect, you are actually hoarding your brilliance. You’re keeping the solutions that people need locked away in your head because it feels "safer" there. During this week's podcast, I’m sitting down with Leisa Reid, the founder of Get Speaking Gigs Now. We are dismantling the "speaker's kryptonite" (those pesky "yeah buts") that keep so many entrepreneurs from taking their rightful seat at the table. We’re talking about how to stop chasing clients and start attracting them through the power of your message. In this episode, we explore: Why authenticity always beats a "polished" performance.The "Hearty Appetizer" metaphor for keeping your audience hungry for more.Identifying the 3 things you could teach anyone right now.Why sharing your message is a profound responsibility, not just a business strategy. Guest Bio: Leisa is a speaker, coach, and the founder of Get Speaking Gigs Now™. Raised by a spiritual teacher, Leisa brings the core values of curiosity, playfulness, kindness, and determination to everything she does. Today, she helps entrepreneurs find their voice and stay booked for life.

How to Create the Right Business Relationships

Do you ever feel that pressure to be "everywhere" on social media? Like, if you don't post today, your business might just disappear? I’ve spent 17 years as a coach, and I’ll be the first to tell you: it’s all noise. The landing pages, the ads, the "shoulds"—they don't bring the people. Relationships do. This week, I’m joined by Steve Ramona, a man who has mastered the art of the "servant’s heart" in business. He shares how he went from zero to 500 new connections in nine weeks and why "shutting up" is the most powerful sales tool you own. We’re digging into the simple, human pathway to growth that most of us are ignoring because we’re too busy staring at our screens. Have you ever noticed that the best opportunities always seem to come from a random conversation rather than a calculated post? GUEST BIO: Steve Ramona is a super-connector, Managing Partner at Ramax Development, and host of the top-20 podcast 'Doing Business with a Servant's Heart.' He specializes in helping founders scale, fund, exit, and leave a lasting legacy through personalized, partnership-first networking.

why changing jobs won't fix your burnout

We think burnout is a circumstance problem: too much responsibility, too much pressure, and way too much to do. But what happens when you leave the job or change the environment, only to discover that the exhaustion came right along with you? In this episode of Conversations Worth Your While, I sit down with Executive Coach Michelle Scott to expose the truth about chronic stress: BURNOUT IS AN INSIDE JOB. It is a symptom of neglecting your own basic needs, driven by subconscious beliefs like "I'm not enough" and "there's not enough." 📋 GUEST BIO: Michelle is an Intuitive Leadership Coach who helps high-impact leaders move beyond burnout, over-functioning, and outdated patterns so they can lead with greater clarity, presence, and alignment. Her work is important because leadership need not come at the cost of a leader’s energy, voice, or inner authority. 📞So you want to get in touch with Michelle?
