Jaclyn shares her journey from sales leadership and consulting into studying consciousness, systemic change, and the science behind sustainable transformation.

    Visibility Isn't Viral: How to Build Real Authority That Lasts Over Time with KJ Blattenbauer

    Join us for an insightful conversation with KJ Blattenbauer, a powerhouse publicist with nearly 30 years of experience helping "underdogs" and bold brands secure the recognition they deserve. In this episode, KJ discusses how effective visibility is not about chasing a viral moment, but about establishing a consistent, recognizable position where the right people understand your expertise. She reveals that many entrepreneurs struggle with a lack of confidence that is actually rooted in confusion over their positioning; once that clarity is achieved, authority and opportunities naturally follow. Discover how to build authority by leveraging your existing proof—such as awards and past results—and accessing "borrowed platforms" like podcasts and guest teaching. KJ emphasizes that women must proactively share their accolades to avoid doing a disservice to those who need their products or services. To help you get started, she shares valuable resources from Hearsay PR including "Headline Your Life" to find your brand story, a "Pitch Kit" for media outreach, and "PR Before Payroll" for building authority without a large budget. For those looking for a modern guide to building lasting authority, keep an eye out for KJ's upcoming book, Pitchworthy, arriving in January 2026.

    You Don't Have to Achieve to Be Loved: A Journey Back to Joy and Purpose, with Rebecca Pearce

    Join us this week as we sit down with Rebecca Pearce, a personal executive coach based in Baltimore, Maryland, who shares her incredible journey from high-powered CEO to finding a life defined by joy and purpose. Rebecca recounts her rise to becoming the nation's first Health Benefit Exchange CEO in 2011, a role she poured her life into for two years before losing it very publicly in 2013. This loss of professional identity was followed by a life-threatening health crisis when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor the size of a ping-pong ball. The grueling surgery and subsequent recovery—which included partial paralysis and hearing loss—served as a definitive wake-up call, shifting her focus from titles and money to the simple, profound joy of being present for her family. Rebecca now uses her experience to help other successful individuals navigate their own transformations through her coaching and her new book, You Don't Have to Achieve to be Loved. She details her four-phase change process: Unfortunate Awareness, Mourning the Past, One Foot In, One Foot Out, and finally, Clearly Me. By blending executive strategy with deep emotional work, Rebecca guides her clients—like a pastor she recently helped transition into a new calling—to balance their passions with realistic financial planning. She defines an empowered woman as someone who understands their inner self and has the courage to give voice to their truths, regardless of external expectations.

    How She Walked Away from Her Family's Business to Build a New York Luxury Empire — with Rebecca Blacker

    Join us this week as we sit down with Rebecca Blacker, a successful New York City real estate broker who runs a top-producing, all-women's team focusing on luxury real estate. Rebecca shares the compelling story of her career, which began in her family's real estate business. Her grandfather, a Holocaust survivor, originally founded the company, making real estate a lifelong presence for Rebecca. However, after the birth of her second child, she felt an overwhelming desire for independence—a need to build something her own rather than managing her father's and grandfather's legacy. This bold move was driven by her ambition to be an entrepreneur and a role model for her kids. Although her transition was initially difficult for her family, they are now incredibly supportive of the successful business she has created. Rebecca details the modern, authentic approach she took to launch her solo career, which began with no listings or content. She purposefully created video content on social media, investing in a studio to overcome the initial fear of being on camera. She used this platform to share her life as a mom and a business starter, building a trustworthy brand that allows clients to feel like they know her before they even meet. This strategy successfully led to clients and the eventual expansion into her current five-member, all-women's team. Rebecca now finds immense joy in the mentorship aspect of leadership, loving the collaboration and support the team provides, and celebrating her members' successes even more than her own. She defines an empowered woman as someone who is fearless, sets goals, and pursues them without worrying about the opinions of others.
