Embracing Enough Dina Scippa

This episode kicks off Season 5 which we have decided to dedicate entirely to reclaiming your inner teenage girl.



And what better way to do so by sitting down with Chelsey Goodan, the author of Underestimated: The Wisdom and Power of Teenage Girls.



This incredible book offers a completely fresh, unexpected, and empowering guide to better understand - and learn from - teenage girls. We get to hear in Chelsey's own words why the world fears teenage girls and how that fear is used to silence them.



Underestimated is a course correction to help girls unleash their intrinsic wisdom and celebrate them for their value rather than trying to fix them. This book along with this exciting episode will vastly improve your relationship with the teenage girl in your life; not to mention your relationship with your own inner teenager.

In this final episode of Season 4, I go in and peel back the layers on what it has really felt like to be a disrupter this year. I let you into the not-so-glamorous parts of full-time entrepreneurship, navigating my own interpretations of success and failure, and giving myself grace for charting my own path in a way I never have before. In this episode, I hope you walk away feeling both inspired and empowered to get messy in 2024 and to more importantly celebrate the effort that you put into the things you want. Because in the end, that is what matters way more than the GOAL itself.



This is a vulnerable episode for me - but I only thought it fair to give you a peek inside of the sometimes dark underbelly of being a disrupter - and while still in the midst of the lows, it's all still beautiful.

Picture this: Two friends, sitting down over coffee, sharing stories that have defined them, broken them, and ultimately propelled them forward. That's what this podcast episode is all about.



As my dear friend, Elaine Hamilton and I sit together, we get real. Not only is our guest, Elaine, a close friend and storyteller extraordinaire, she unveils the intricacies of her personal journey – the highs, the lows, and the transformative moments in between.



But this isn’t just any story: it’s a testament to the human spirit's ability to rewrite and redefine.


In this deeply reflective episode, we invite listeners to pull up a chair and join us in a raw and vulnerable conversation about the power of transforming your story. We delve into the concept of "shifting your story," exploring how individuals can navigate life's challenges by reframing their experiences.



Elaine shares poignant anecdotes, lessons learned, and the pivotal moments that prompted her to shift her perspective. From confronting past traumas to embracing newfound passions, we uncover the transformative power of self-awareness and intentionality. Our hope is that you will be inspired to reflect on their narratives, questioning whether their current story aligns with their authentic selves.



Together, we challenge the notion that we are passive characters in our tales, urging listeners to become active authors of their destinies. Tune in as we navigate the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength, providing a safe space for listeners to explore their stories' potential shifts.



Join us for a heartfelt conversation that promises to challenge, inspire, and empower. Because sometimes, all it takes is a shift in perspective to rewrite the story of a lifetime.

Strategy is hard.

In this week's episode, we sit down with Kari Huske, Founder of KH Strategies who is both a friend, a confidante and a bonafide disrupter herself who has helped me lean into the power of support.

Do you have an inner critic or an inner bully? You know the negative self-talk swirling in your brain that doesn't let you stop obsessing around what you haven't done, what you don't do enough of, or makes you agonize over how you could have done something so insane?

Well, that stops today. And if you have an inner critic, or worse, an inner bully, then this episode is for you!

Dina sits down with Theresa Byrne to up the ante on how we protect ourselves against our inner bully. And we get deep into it.

Theresa Byrne is a modern day leader in personal power. While she was a professional martial artist and international self-defense expert featured in magazines, books, TV shows, and workshops around the world, Theresa developed the InPower™ system which focuses on helping people unleash their personal power and inner warrior strength.

As a personal protection specialist she's pioneering the future of how we take care of ourselves, and what internal safety and boundaries mean.

Theresa was born with an innate protectress instinct (think the ‘mama bear effect’ in action) and an insatiable curiosity about personal power/human potential. And even as early as childhood she knew she wanted to help others reach their highest potential. 

In this episode, Theresa and Dina unpack what it actually takes to disrupt your negative self-talk and hope you walk away with some powerful tools that help you become your own best defense.
