    The Power of Belonging: Building Community in a Disconnected World

    Founded as a high-touch membership platform for high-achieving mothers, Mysha was built around one core idea: women need more than networking — they need trusted connection, support, and spaces where they can truly feel seen. Through curated experiences, thoughtful gatherings, and intentional relationship-building, Marika has created a community where founders, executives, creatives, and leaders can navigate motherhood and ambition without feeling isolated in the process. In this episode, Anna and Marika explore what it really means to build community in a world that often feels increasingly disconnected — and why belonging may be one of the most important forms of wellness and success today. 👠 Key Moments: The inspiration behind launching Mysha and creating high-trust spaces for women Why modern motherhood can feel unexpectedly isolating The emotional importance of intentional community and connection What ambitious women are privately struggling with right now The difference between networking and genuine belonging How curated experiences create deeper relationships The loneliness many high-achieving women silently carry Motherhood, identity shifts, and redefining personal success Building a premium, community-first business without outside funding The role aesthetics, style, and environment play in creating emotional connection Why community may become the new luxury Advice for women seeking more authentic friendships and support systems This episode is thoughtful, warm, and incredibly timely — a reminder that women were never meant to navigate life, motherhood, ambition, or reinvention alone. Because sometimes the most powerful thing we can find… is each other. 🎧 Listen now for a conversation about community, connection, motherhood, identity, and creating spaces where women can truly belong.

    I Don’t Want This Version of Success Anymore

    After more than 60 conversations with founders, executives, creatives, mothers, investors, healers, and entrepreneurs, Anna realized something surprising: So many women are no longer chasing the version of success they once thought they wanted. Instead, they’re craving something softer. More intentional. More connected. More alive. In this raw and honest episode, Anna opens up about spending 20 years in tech and entrepreneurship, building companies and communities while quietly navigating burnout, identity shifts, and the growing desire to step away from constant hustle culture. She also shares the realities of building I Want Her Shoes Podcast — a podcast that has reached the Top 2% globally and surpassed 400,000 downloads in under 18 months, yet still reflects the very real tension many entrepreneurs face between passion, purpose, creativity, and financial sustainability.
