Earn Your Happy

How long have you been “working on” an idea that you could have already launched? In this episode, Chris and I talk about why your first launch doesn’t need to be perfect, it just needs to happen. We break down what we learned from launching Found Trip and Million Dollar Guest, why the first version is really about testing for product-market fit and getting feedback, and why you have to keep marketing even when you don’t get an immediate response. Tune in for a reminder to stop getting ready to get ready, put your idea out there, and let the feedback help you make it better.

What if your strongest, most confident, most successful years are still ahead of you? In this episode, I sit down with Alicia Erickson to completely flip the script on what life can look like in your 40s, 50s, and beyond. Alicia shares how she transformed her body, rebuilt her confidence, got sober, and stepped into an entirely new career that took off in her 50s. We talk about breaking the beliefs that tell you it’s too late, building habits that actually last, surrounding yourself with people who reinforce what’s possible, and having the courage to go after a new version of your life before you feel ready. If you need proof that you can become stronger, healthier, more confident, and create an entirely new chapter at any age, this conversation is for you.

What if the thing you’re most afraid of people finding out about you is actually keeping you from the life, business, and relationships you want? In this throwback episode, I sit down with Shoshanna Raven to talk about releasing shame, owning every part of your story, and freeing up the energy you need to go after your biggest dreams. We share some of the stories we once thought would make people take us less seriously, how vulnerability can create deeper connection and trust, and why your challenges don’t have to mean you’re doing something wrong.

In today’s episode, Chris and I talk about the things that used to give us energy, creativity, and a mental reset, and how easily they can disappear when life gets busy.
