info_outline 237 Discovering and Living Our Sexuality - A ConversationThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
In honor of Pride month here in the US, I wanted to bring you a genuine conversation with a number of dear friends of mine about our own discoveries about our places in the LGBTQIA+ universe. We’re having a frank, open discussion about our experiences, our joys, our struggles, and so much more. Regardless of how you (or those in your lives) identify, these issues touch all of us, and I want to help bring greater understanding to my community and to all those whose lives you touch.

info_outline 236 The Power of Play with Elaine O Brien and Andrea SeydelThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
Play comes naturally to most children, but as we get older, playfulness, zest, tends to diminish. We get stuck in responsibilities, or maybe you feel like play is frivolous. But then you also end up feeling unhappy and depressed and play is a way out of it. The power of play can really help us live more enjoyable, fulfilling, and even productive lives. My two guests today, Elaine O’Brien and Andrea Seydel, are not only dear friends of mine, but they just coauthored a book on this, and I am so thrilled to have them share their wisdom with you! Today we’re discussing: Why we lose our sense...

info_outline 234 Taking Control of Our Relationship with MoneyThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
I grew up the grandchild of Holocaust survivors. My grandparents fled Europe and came to the United States with nothing, and their experiences understandably left them with concerns about money and scarcity. Some of this rubbed off on me, along with my own experiences growing up around people who had far more money than I did (not that I wanted for anything). And as a result, I ended up with my own set of issues around money. Today’s episode is a bit of a departure for me, since I rarely focus on money, but that’s what we’re diving into today. Join me as I talk all about: Power leaks...
info_outline 233 Helping Women Make a Unique Life Pivot with Dominique VelasquezThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
You ever have that feeling that you should be happier than you are? Maybe you think that in general, things are going pretty OK in your life, and for sure a lot of people have it worse than you do, and yet you feel like you should be happier? You wonder what’s wrong with you? I’ll out myself and say that yes, I’ve been there many times in my life. If this at all resonates for you, then I’ve got the best guest for you! Today I’m sitting down with Dominique Velasquez to talk about: The guilt that comes from feeling that you have no good reason to be anxious or unhappy The search for...
info_outline 232 VISIONARY MasterclassThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
I didn’t build my business on social media - I built it by speaking on stages. My big dream was to be impactful like Oprah, and though I had no mentor, I figured it out. I spoke at AVON and for Victoria’s Secret execs. For Capital One and at Women’s conferences. I LOVED IT! I made an impact, I made money, AND, nearly every time I spoke, I got clients! But then… I kept seeing all of these other coaches making $1 Million in 6 months! I felt so inadequate. Ads started screaming at me on Facebook: Get 10,000 followers! Get my cash coach system! My brain start obsessing about social...
info_outline 231 Dating, Break Ups, Relationships, and Love with Jamie SimkinsThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
After I divorced years ago, I had a series of relationships over a number of years, some for a short time and some that lasted a while, but for too much of that time I wasn’t really clear on what I wanted out of these relationships, let alone how to go about getting it. Looking back on it now, I wish I had had someone in my life like today’s guest to help me navigate all of this. Today we’re talking with Jamie Simkins, expert in all things dating, relationships, love and sex, and it is SUCH a fabulous, juicy conversation! Join us as we talk all about: Some of the common struggles so...
info_outline 230 Stoking the Fire WithinThe PurposeGirl Podcast: Empowering women to live their purpose with courage, joy, and fierce self-love.
I recently got back from leading my Wild Woman Retreat in Puerto Rico, and I’m just gonna own it… It was AMAZING! I really do lead the best women’s retreats! Together we embraced the wild parts of ourselves, those parts that the patriarchy tries to suppress because our raw power threatens and scares them. Because uncovering and embracing these deeper parts of ourselves is critical to our own happiness. I’m on the verge of a major transformation right now, one in which I’m moving away from PurposeGirl and moving towards something bigger and bolder: Teaching women to be wise, wild...

About Diana Ringquist
Diana has often described herself as an over-educated nomad with carnival tendencies, while others have called her a badass Warrior Goddess. Any way you look at it, this Wild Woman breaks out of the everyday as a coach, mentor, leader, artist, author, speaker, and creatrix of her own Extraordinary Life!
She has lived on three continents in five countries and visited more than five times that many (and counting), learning multiple languages, making friends, and learning the incredible power of laughter. Diana balances being an entrepreneur, spouse, mother, daughter, and wrangling a now 18 year old rescue cat and is a proud “foster fail” of a street dog family rescue of seven where she couldn’t let go of two of the pups. Diana has accomplished all of this since the age of 40!
Always remembering her roots and the women who influenced her, Diana is known for her no-nonsense approach and has been working with others to help them reach their personal and professional “next level” since the late 1980’s earning her the moniker, MamaDi.
