    87. How Storytelling Heals: A Screenwriter's Journey Through Loss and Forgiveness | Simbi Hall

    Episode 87 | How Storytelling Heals: A Screenwriter's Journey Through Loss and Forgiveness | Simbi Hall What if the stories we tell on screen are actually the stories we need to heal within ourselves? In this raw, layered, and quietly extraordinary episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with Simbi Hall, screenwriter, director, producer, and storyteller whose work spans film, television, and live shows, including the Academy Awards red carpet. Simbi joined this conversation days after losing her father and her aunt in the same week, while her mother was in the ER. She recorded it anyway, because she had something to say. This conversation is about grief, storytelling, forgiveness, community, and the radical act of staying soft when life tries to make you hard. 🎧 Tune in and learn: What it means to catch yourself hardening and why staying soft is the braver choice Why storytelling is how we get to world peace and comedy is how we let it in Sometimes your biological family is just relatives and that distinction can set you free How directing live TV and directing grief require the same skill set Is what I'm about to do creating peace, or the opposite? The question that changes everything. Have the coffee. Get the hug. Ask for what you need. This one will stay with you. 💚 💡 Featured Resources: Follow Simbi: @simbihall on Instagram Watch her film, Long Story Short: https://watch.afi.com/movie/long-story-short-4 📚 HeartPrint by Meg Tuohey Order now at yourheartprint.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    84. She Spent 20 Years Hating Herself. Here's How She Finally Broke Free | Alexis Meruelo

    Episode 84 | She Spent 20 Years Hating Herself. Here's How She Finally Broke Free with Alexis Meruelo She spent 20 years trapped in a cycle of self-hatred, limiting beliefs, and an eating disorder she hid from the world. Now she helps women do in months what took her decades. In this warm and deeply honest episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with Alexis Meruelo, Chief Vision and Purpose Officer of Meruelo Group, women's empowerment advocate, keynote speaker, and author of the upcoming book Rising to Lead. Alexis grew up in a Cuban-Latin culture where women were taught to stay quiet, serve, and not take up space. There is even a saying for it: "te ves mas bonita cuando te callas." You look prettier when you're quiet. For 20 years, she believed it. Then everything fell apart. And she rebuilt herself from the floor up. Now she mentors dozens of young women, speaks at conferences around the world, and is on a mission to help women identify and rewrite the limiting beliefs that are quietly keeping them from the life and career they were built for. 🎧 Tune in and learn: How to identify where your limiting beliefs came from and why knowing the source is the first step to releasing them What growing up in Latin machismo culture taught her about silence, worthiness, and women's power Why your greatest purpose will always stem from your greatest pain, and how to find it when you're still in the thick of it What real mentorship looks like for women in business (and why a woman with a mentor is 5x more likely to get promoted) How to break generational money beliefs holding Latina women back and become the one who changes the lineage The only thing holding you back is the story you have been telling yourself. This episode is an invitation to rewrite it. 💚 💡 Featured Resources: Connect with Alexis: @alexismeruelo Website: alexismeruelo.com Women's Conference: The Business of Her, November, Sahara Las Vegas 📚 HeartPrint by Meg Tuohey Order now at yourheartprint.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    Episode 83 | Prevention Over Pills: What the Healthcare System Isn't Telling You with Sam Tejada A chronically ill patient has one wish. A healthy person has many. Which side of that coin are you on? In this grounding and eye-opening episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with Sam Tejada, founder and president of LiquiVida, a multimillion-dollar wellness company revolutionizing preventative health and IV therapy across the United States. Sam's path began as a lifeguard teaching kids not to drown, evolved into 12 years as a firefighter-paramedic watching the same patients spiral into chronic illness, and transformed when he saw a cardiac surgeon quietly reversing disease by changing how people lived. This conversation is a masterclass in taking ownership of your health, before crisis forces you to. 🎧 Tune in and learn: The three pillars of modern health: prevention, early detection, and treatment intervention Four free things you can start today: say no, eat right, move your body, sleep better Why toxins in food, water, and your environment are the root cause of most modern disease What Sam witnessed watching low-income and ultra-wealthy patients in the same decade and why information is the real divide Why, if you want to change the system, do you have to get yourself into a position of power to change it Your health is not just for you. It's for everyone who depends on you. This episode is your reminder to make it a priority. 💡 Featured Resources: 🧬 LiquiVida: liquivida.com Website: www.SamTejada.com 📚 HeartPrint by Meg Tuohey Order now at yourheartprint.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this warm and deeply practical episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with Lisa Stuart, attorney, author, speaker, wife, and mother of three, creator of The Drama Diet.

It's earned. From divorce, blended family chaos, three miscarriages, and family rejection to a surprise daughter she dreamed about as a child, she has walked through it all and come back with a framework that actually works. 🎧 Tune in and learn: Why drama never dies and how to stop fighting it and start dancing with it instead The law of duality and how contrast shows you exactly what you want How to turn comparisonitis from a wound into a compass Why don't you dream of something that doesn't belong to you What breaking generational chains actually looks like in a family and what changes for the next generation because of it Navigate with fear.

    Episode 81 | The Persistence Formula: How One Woman Rebuilt Her Business Three Times and Still Won with Zeynep Ekemen What do you do when your competitors fold, your partners leave, and the world decides it no longer needs your product? In this energizing episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with Zeynep Ekemen, founder of Z Realty Group and Silver Defender, inventor, investor, and advocate for women in business. Zeynep invented an antimicrobial film technology in 2018, launched it at the height of the pandemic, watched her competitors collapse when COVID ended, bought out her own partners, and rebuilt the company from scratch, twice, until it landed in the NFL, MLB, and World Trade Center buildings. This conversation is about what persistence actually looks like from the inside: the gratitude journal she has kept for decades, the three-part formula that gets her through any obstacle, and why she still bets everything on herself, every time. 🎧 Tune in and learn: The three-part daily formula she uses to access her intuition and keep moving: exercise, gratitude, and prayer How writing your dreams in the past tense, as if they already happened, quietly rewires your brain toward them Why the people who don't believe in you are often the people closest to you and what to do about it The pivot that saved Silver Defender: shifting from pandemic product to permanent healthcare infrastructure What it really means to bet on yourself when you've already lost it all before If you've ever wondered whether persistence is enough, this episode will remind you it is. 💡 Featured Resources: Silver Defender: silverdefender.com Zeynep on IG: @z_silverdefender 📚 HeartPrint by Meg Tuohey Order now at yourheartprint.com Learn more about your ad choices.
