It Has to Be Me

What are your “It has to be me” moments? Those key points in your life where you know “This is what I want to do” and you go for it! I’m Tess Masters and I’m getting the skinny from people who are smashing their fears and doubts to make the things they want happen. Let’s dive in, get fired up, and go after your next “It Has To Be Me!”

    The Enneagram: What Drives Your Choices? | 051

    Kelly Travis, performance and team-dynamics expert, shares how we can use the Enneagram assessment and other tools to understand our fundamental mindsets and beliefs to change behaviors that keep us stuck.    She takes us inside her own journey from collegiate athlete struggling with an eating disorder, to the pivotal “bathroom floor” moment during her pregnancy, to professed “mental health ninja” coaching individuals and teams to success and fulfillment.   Kelly is all about achieving success that energizes you rather than leaving you depleted. She helps clients see that it’s not just about getting what you want, but about wanting what you get.    We discuss the critical importance of knowing your core beliefs and motivations and what drives your choices. Kelly explains that while these things don’t change, understanding them better helps us break free of behavior patterns to be adaptive with our responses. This way of being helps us see multiple paths to achieving our goals.   Taking this to the practical level, Kelly shares tools for redirecting negative self-talk to avoid mental spiraling that holds us back. Then, she helps us improve our relationship and communication dynamics for better interaction and conflict resolution.     Tune in for a crash course in upgrading your self-awareness and taking charge of your choices.  TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  If you’re operating on autopilot, get curious about your thoughts and actions.  The Enneagram assessment offers insights into core motivations and behaviors. There is not one way of being or doing. We can respond along an adaptive continuum. Visual cues are prompts to check in and redirect negative thought patterns.  Projecting into the future causes unnecessary stress.  To combat fear, take action to prove yourself wrong.  Adaptive behavior creates more opportunities.  Understanding different communication styles is crucial for better conflict resolution.    ABOUT KELLY TRAVIS  Coach, Enneagram practitioner, and team-dynamics expert, Kelly Travis helps individuals and teams understand core beliefs and behaviors to break free from patterns that get in the way of success.   Combining her experience in mental health, publishing, marketing, and communications, Kelly has built a coaching system drawing together cognitive-based and solution-focused modalities. She is all about unbridled honesty to achieve radical self-awareness and growth.   Through her Ascend mastermind program, Kelly helps women leaders achieve success and fulfillment.  She shares her approach on the Ready When You Are podcast.      CONNECT WITH KELLY  Website: https://www.kellytravis.net/  Ready When You Are Podcast: https://www.kellytravis.net/podcast  Ascend Mastermind: https://www.kellytravis.net/ascend  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withkellytravis  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/withkellytravis/  Meet Tess Masters:   Tess Masters is an actor, presenter, health coach, cook, and author of The Blender Girl, The...

    Antidotes To Fear | 050

    To mark 50 episodes of “It Has To Be Me,” I’m highlighting insights from our guests about navigating fear and going after what you want.   Starting this podcast, I knew this universal challenge would come up again and again, and that we were in for a masterclass.   An NHL star coached us to see ourselves as always in training, and to find another gear of resilience. CEO and pioneer in infrared sauna technology encourages her team to make mistakes and then leverage them. A celebrity portrait photographer’s rule is to own the room no matter who’s in it.   Guests have not only taken us inside their stories, they’ve also shared their unique perspectives and methods for seizing the moment and grabbing the wheel when fear threatens to derail things.   The big lessons? Negotiate change with curiosity, listen to your gut, embrace failure as opportunity, get agency from regret, and frame every experience as a necessary step to achieving your goals.  Tune in for strategies to bulldoze those fears and seize your next “It Has To Be Me!” TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  When you buy into fear, you energize your suffering. Name and claim your fear and it ceases to have power. The greatest antidote to fear is action. Fear and excitement activate in the same place in the body. Start before you feel ready. Courage comes from doing. To combat fear, focus on what you can control.  By shifting from 'what if' to 'even if' you can empower yourself. Acting despite fear is easier than living with regret.  Meet Tess Masters:   Tess Masters is an actor, presenter, health coach, cook, and author of The Blender Girl, The Blender Girl Smoothies, and The Perfect Blend, published by Penguin Random House.

    Strawberry Health: Convenient At-Home Hormone Testing | 049

    Are you being proactive about your hormones? Svetlana Kazantseva, CEO and co-founder of Strawberry Health, shares how a combo of home testing kits and concierge support is changing the game in women’s healthcare. With curiosity, adaptability, and relentless problem solving as her superpowers, Svetlana reinvented herself while living all over the world—from Siberia to India, the UK, and the US. What do you do when you land in San Francisco with a toddler and a newborn, and a pandemic hits? If you’re Svetlana, you start a company and a nonprofit to help women! Building her first company, PlumThyme, Svetlana connected with young women, and recognized the widespread lack of understanding about hormone health. She pivoted and launched Strawberry Health, offering innovative at-home hormone testing and concierge service to deliver results and recommendations for follow-up care. We discuss the importance of making comprehensive hormone tests affordable and accessible, and life-changing impacts of early hormone testing, such as discovering reduced ovarian reserves that compromise fertility or low testosterone as a root cause of fatigue and low libido. Svetlana shares how she and her team are empowering women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s to understand their hormonal status, get treatment for underlying conditions, reach their goals, transition through menopause with ease, and age in peak health. TESS’S TAKEAWAYS: Standard blood panels seldom include vital biomarkers for hormone health. Healthcare plans and insurers generally don’t cover detailed hormone testing. Strawberry Health makes comprehensive hormone testing accessible and affordable. Understanding your hormonal health early can amount to vital preventive medicine. Strawberry Health’s home test kit addresses nine key biomarkers. The home test kit’s innovative blood collection device is painless and easy to use. You may have underlying health issues but not present with any adverse symptoms. Strawberry Health concierge support gives recommendations for follow-up medical care. ABOUT SVETLANA Svetlana Kazantseva is CEO and co-founder of Strawberry Health, empowering women to proactively manage their hormonal health. A mother of two and founder of two femtech companies and a nonprofit, she comes to her work with a unique global perspective derived from living in multiple countries and knowing diverse cultures.

    Calocurb: A Natural Alternative to GLP-1 Injectables | 048

    Looking for a natural way to combat cravings and lose weight—without GLP-1 injections? Sarah Kennedy, founder and CEO of Calocurb, shares how she and a group of scientists brought their revolutionary product to market, and how it’s taking the world by storm.   Sarah recognized Calocurb as a strategic tool to support healthier choices and built the company around that principle. A life-long struggle with weight and love-hate relationship with food made this a passion project. When the product delivered for her where nothing else had, making sure others had access to it became her mission.   She takes inside the science that makes Calocurb uniquely effective. Inspired by ancient practices—from Scots chewing bitter berries during famines and Kalahari tribesmen chewing bitter roots before hunts—scientists theorized that bitter compounds might suppress appetite today. And they were right. A variety of hops grown in New Zealand triggers the greatest response.   After years of testing and clinical trials with both men and women, Calocurb has been proven to reduce hunger, food cravings and calorie intake to help people lose weight without the adverse side effects of Ozempic or other GLP-1 injectables.   Sarah lays out why this product differs from synthetic injectables, and how practitioners are using it in conjunction with injectables, as a natural way to titrate off them, and as an alternative to them. People are also using Calocurb selectively in a variety of ways.   Acknowledging that appetite and weight loss have nothing to do with willpower, and that women are more responsive to GLP-1 than men, Sarah shares how women are using Calocurb during their monthly cycles with great success.   This isn’t another dodgy supplement. Tune in to get this game-changing information.  COUPON CODE: Use code TM10 to get 10% OFF for a limited time.     TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  An alternative to GLP-1 injectables, Calocurb is a natural appetite suppressant. Calocurb contains three ingredients only: All natural and plant-based. Unlike synthetic injectables, Calocurb stimulates natural GLP-1 production. Calocurb is used to titrate off GLP-1 injectables to maintain results.  This supplement can be used selectively to curb food cravings and calorie intake.  Ingested rather than injected, Calocurb doesn't interfere with the liver and kidneys. Calocurb can be taken with other medications.  By reinstating hunger and satiety cues, Calocurb supports the gut-brain connection.      SARAH KENNEDY BIO  Founder and CEO of Calocurb, Sarah Kennedy shepherded years of scientific research and clinical trials to bring a revolutionary product to market.  A veterinarian by training, with more than 20 years’ experience in dietary and animal nutrition, Sarah has held a number of CEO and senior executive positions in food and agriculture industries, at companies including Fonterra and Healtheries/Vitaco NZ.   In 2010, at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sarah completed a Sloan Fellowship Program in Global Leadership and Innovation. She has held a number of board positions with government, private, and philanthropic organizations.  CONNECT WITH CALOCURB  Website: https://www.calocurb.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calocurbGLOBAL/  Instagram: a href="https://www.instagram.com/calocurb" rel="noopener noreferrer"...

    Make Better Decisions Faster | 047

    Do you struggle making the big calls in life? Decision coach Nell Wulfhart gives us practical methods for weighing up our options and making choices that get us what we want and align with our values.   Raised by a father who believed he could do anything and did, and a very successful mother with a more conservative approach, Nell learned early to make decisions with a balance of confidence and caution. Later, deciding she’d rather regret what she did than what she didn’t, she went to college overseas and then lived in countries all over the world. That led to her work as a travel writer, New York Times columnist, and nonfiction author.   Helping people break out of analysis paralysis and make necessary life-changing decisions, she found her vocation. She coaches politicians, athletes, corporate executives, filmmakers, and everyday people.  Nell gives us the steps to break through the dread of regret, imposter syndrome, and the endless loop of “What ifs” and “I don’t knows” to take action towards our goals.   She walks us through the most effective way to assess the risk and reward of any decision, and shares how to implement her Post It, Deadline Halving, and Test The Waters strategies.    Busting the misconception that more time spent making decisions means better decisions, Nell says: Make the call, then collect the data, and get to the good bit sooner!     Nell’s advice will help you make decisions with clarity, stop spinning your wheels, and start living your It Has To Be Me!     TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  Spend less time making a decision and more time taking action on it. Weigh the cost of the decision vs the cost of not making the decision.  To combat fear and doom, step back, zoom out, and assess the facts.  Risk assessment overlooks the best-case scenario. Test the waters to get data about whether you like something.  A shift from “what if” to “even if” inspires bold choices and resilience.  When making a decision, give yourself a deadline, then halve it.  Making decisions not in line with your values is a shortcut to unhappiness.    ABOUT NELL WULFHART  Host of The Decision Coach podcast, Nell Wulfhart has counselled politicians, athletes, fund managers, corporate executives, filmmakers, and people in diverse fields to make life-changing decisions.     In a single session and with a coaching style that New York Magazine describes as "an unvarnished warmth that lands somewhere between cool aunt and favorite camp counselor,”  she helps the client make a decision and take action on it.   A former New York Times columnist and author of The Great Stewardess Rebellion, Nell is a seasoned travel writer and contributes to Conde Nast Traveller, Travel & Leisure, Bon Appetit, and others.     CONNECT WITH NELL  Website: https://decisioncoach.com/  Website: https://nellmcshanewulfhart.com/  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-decision-coach-how-to-make-big-choices/id1726265445   Book: a href="https://www.amazon.com/Great-Stewardess-Rebellion-Workplace-Revolution/dp/059308229X/" rel="noopener noreferrer"...

    Stock Market Trading: Minimize Your Risk | 046

    Does investing in the stock market look too risky and complicated? Diana Perkins, CPA, equities trader and financial mentor, busts myths about trading, and explains why women make better investors than men.  Even as a kid, Diana had a knack for numbers. As a nine-year-old, she opened her first bank account, learned about compound interest, started making small loans to her sister, and earning a return. At eighteen, she negotiated better financing on her first car by stumping the salesman with the time value of money. A decade after becoming a CPA, she was trading equities and options and managing heavyweight portfolios at a global wealth management firm. From there, she went out on her own, founding the private consultancy Trading With Diana, with the mission of expanding financial education and literacy for women.   We discuss strategies for building financial independence, and how the stock market fits into that. Diana reminds us that we can open a brokerage account with very little money, and practice trading with a “paper” account, before risking real cash.    Noting the mistakes new traders tend to make, Diana says, “trade the market in front of you” and resist kneejerk emotional decisions. Then, straight-out gives us her winning trading formula.   Whether you’re new to trading or looking to up your game, this episode will give you actionable tips, and inspire you to look at the stock market and your place in it in a new way.    TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  Stock market trading tips for beginners: How to get started.   Why women are better investors than men.  Practice trading with a “paper” account before risking real cash.  The top three mistakes new traders make. How to develop a winning trading strategy for long-term growth. The lowdown on investing in funds vs individual stocks. Invest wisely and diversify your investments to minimize risk.  Avoid emotional trading decisions. Trade the market in front of you.  DIANA PERKINS BIO  A seasoned CPA with decades of experience in global strategy consulting, and trading equities and options, Diana Perkins worked on some of the largest M&A deals in the capital markets and wealth management sectors.   Passionate about empowering women with financial independence, she founded Trading With Diana. Her firm’s mission is to help novice and experienced investors navigate the world of trading and achieve financial success.  Through private consulting, in-person workshops, and online courses, Diana helps clients build financial literacy, break down barriers to investing, and build wealth with confidence.  CONNECT WITH DIANA  Website: https://tradingwithdiana.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tradingwithdiana  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/tradingwithdiana  LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/company/trading-with-diana-llc/  Meet Tess Masters:   Tess Masters is an actor, presenter, health coach, cook, and author of The Blender Girl, The Blender Girl Smoothies, and The Perfect Blend, published by Penguin Random House.

    Making Values-Driven Money Decisions | 045

    Does talking about money make you cringe? Syama Bunten, entrepreneur and host of the Getting Rich Together podcast shares how to get comfortable with money, then build wealth in a way that aligns with your values.   With parents who were devout Hare Krishnas, Syama was raised to prioritize community, faith, and purpose. Her mother encouraged success, but often criticized how wealth manifests.   Valuing education above all, Syama’s parents worked to keep her in San Francisco’s best schools, where her fellow students had grown up with money. Caught between worlds, Syama was torn.   She was sure on one point. She wanted to make an impact. At 12, she lobbied the White House for a year for her choir to sing there. It happened. Recognizing the ability to create opportunities gave her the confidence to relentlessly pursue and achieve her goals.  Climbing the corporate ladder was unfulfilling, and the deep unhappiness she saw in her colleagues prompted her to start a company, modeling a new approach to leadership.   Syama started leveraging her business acumen toward value-driven investments that magnify impact while making money.   Sharing her approach, she noticed most women avoided talking about money, which limited their opportunities. To empower women with open conversations, knowledge, and resources, Syama started her podcast and live events to facilitate peer-to-peer support and community.   Learn from Syama how to invest wisely to create the world you want to live in.     TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  A money mindset instilled in childhood can be changed. Most women are uncomfortable talking about money, which limits opportunities. The glamorization of high-risk investments often leads to poor financial choices. Tapping into a community of financially literate women expands your opportunities.  Transparent conversations about money build financial literacy. Peer-to-peer mentoring unlocks wisdom and resources among women. Wealth expanders—who share their experience—are key for defining your approach. Value-driven investment decisions magnify your impact.     SYAMA BUNTEN BIO  Founder and CEO of Scaling Retail and host of the Getting Rich Together podcast, Syama Bunten is passionate about empowering women to take control of their finances, via investments that magnify their impact in the world.   A direct investor in over 25 companies and an advisor and board member for multiple organizations, Syama facilitates conversations about money and peer-to-peer mentoring through her podcast, business community, and live events.   Anchored to her mandate of making value-driven money decisions, Syama helps women expand their financial literacy and opportunity.   She has been featured in The New York Times, Forbes, and other publications, and appeared as a speaker at SXSW, American Express, and Conde Nast.   Syama’s message: Let’s rewrite the rules of money together and create a world where every woman has the knowledge, resources, and confidence to achieve financial freedom.  CONNECT WITH SYAMA    Syama Bunten  https://syamabunten.com/  Getting Rich Together Podcast  https://syamabunten.com/getting-rich-together-podcast/  Instagram  a href="https://www.instagram.com/syama.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer"...

    Better Health and Vitality Over 40 | 044

    Toni, Polly, and Deanna—three members of the Skinny60® community—share how improving their gut health was the key to living their best life over 40.   After years of failed diets and lingering post-pregnancy weight, Toni was exhausted and dragging her way through life. Within five days of starting the program, she was waking up energized and excited to tackle the day. Within two months, she’d lost 30 pounds, and had a new lease on life!    During the pandemic, the stress of Polly’s work as a nurse led to snacking on junk food, and other habits that resulted in persistent acid reflux and joint pain. The science-based approach of Skinny60® appealed to her as a medical professional. By nourishing her body strategically and improving her digestion, she lifted her mood, lost weight, and took back control of her health.    Deanna was also desperate to hit reset. After years of burnout, chronic constipation and inflammation, she was adamant about finding something sustainable that she could do on her own. Initially skeptical, she experienced life-changing results with the SK60® System. She lost 20 pounds, her pain and hot flashes disappeared, and she poops every day!  Key for all three women was how Skinny60® gave them the nutrition knowledge, additional cooking skills, and confidence to make smart food choices for life—without the stress of restrictive diets or passing fads.    Staying flexible and embracing the “Good, Better, Best, Not Perfect” philosophy of the program was a game-changer. Letting go of having to get everything right, they all came to see that lasting success isn’t about perfection—it’s about simply making the next better choice.     TESS’S TAKEAWAYS:  Taking in nutrition specific for your needs now is the most effective eating strategy.  Better gut health is foundational for balancing hormones, and critical during menopause. Nutrition education is key for making better food choices sustainable.  A dietitian should be an integral member of your medical team.  Achieving better health is about what you add more than what you take away.  Meeting your protein needs is a game-changer for better metabolic function.  Your health approach needs to adapt to your changing needs. Rather than aiming for perfection, take action on the next better choice.     ABOUT OUR GUESTS  TONI RAYNES  The youngest of four kids, Toni grew up in Southeast Asia before returning to Australia to live. Having spent much of her life exploring other cultures, she counts the empathy and adaptability she developed as her superpowers. Mom to two fabulous teenagers, Toni enjoys her work as an assistant director in film and TV. Committed as she is to work and home, she’s also committed to staying healthy so she can keep traveling all her life.     POLLY DRAGO  A nurse going on 25 years now, Polly has found fulfillment providing compassionate care to her community. She and her husband enjoy time in the kitchen cooking and eating delicious meals, many of which are SK60® recipes. Staying active, she maintains ballet barre and Pilates routines, hikes, and particularly enjoys being in nature. An avid reader and knitter, Polly also enjoys traveling and dressing up for a fancy-dress ball!     DEANNA VANSICKEL  With a PhD in human science, Deanna spent ten years as a psychotherapist serving marginalized populations, then transitioned to business psychology and executive coaching. For the past twenty years, she has worked guiding executives and organizations in the governmental, academic, and...
