From choosing the wrong business name to using your personal Gmail account, these structural errors are disqualifying you before funders even look at your pitch.

Have you ever felt burned out? Not the "I don't feel like working today" kind—but the deep burnout where you're gaining weight you can't explain, nothing brings you joy, and you're hanging on by your fingernails just trying to get through each day? Former family law litigator Wendy Meadows knows this intimately. After years of fighting in courtrooms and bringing that combative energy home, she made a shift that changed everything. She became a health and wellness coach, discovered how coaching could transform her legal practice, and eventually left litigation for collaborative law and...

Turning the calendar doesn't reset your nervous system. All the vision boards in the world won't rearrange your limiting beliefs about money. So what about the money? In this final episode of 2025, I'm getting vulnerable about the money fears that keep women entrepreneurs stuck financially—including my own. You'll hear exactly what happened when I confronted my hidden fear: "If I become truly wealthy, will people think I'm a bad person?" The truth? You can only earn at the speed of safety. When your nervous system feels unsafe, you physically cannot show up at the level required to grow your...

What if money isn't as "real" as we think it is? This week, Sarah talks to spiritual coach, tour leader, and money mindset mentor Halle Eavelyn about the deep, often hidden beliefs that shape women's relationships with wealth. From a life-changing awakening in Egypt to writing The Passive Income Power Plan, Halle shares how she helps women remember their power—and step fully into it. Here's something wild: women couldn't open their own bank accounts until 1974. Today, we still receive only 3% of venture capital funding. These aren't just statistics—they're symptoms of deep programming...

In this quiet but powerful close-to-the-end-of-the-year episode, I'm inviting you into a deeper kind of reflection: not a noisy checklist of goals, but a wholehearted look at what your life and work have really been built on—and what needs to shift. I'm writing this after attending a funeral, and after finding out my Aunt Wendy passed away. Some of you met her in episode 148. Through these stories of grief and loss, I'm exploring how pause can bring clarity, and how to choose a slower, more intentional path into the new year. Whether you're a business owner, a creative, or simply someone...

You know that idea pulling at your heart? The one you immediately follow up with "who am I to do this?" Carrie Rich had one of those ideas while mopping hospital floors as a graduate student. She didn't wait until she had it all figured out. She cracked a joke in an attendance meeting. Made one bold ask. Then another. Then another. Now? Her work has impacted 11.6 million lives across 70 countries through the Global Good Fund. But here's what really changed everything for Carrie: a stack of napkins pushed across a desk and one question - "Do you have a financial life plan?" At 25 years old, her...
info_outlineOur day-to-day conversations are POWERFUL. They can dictate our days, weeks, and months — ultimately, they can shape our lives. It's true. When I moved from Utah to California and then to the East Coast, my conversations changed from topics like "Who has the cleanest house and best-behaved children" to "How fit are you, and what's the latest diet" and then to "How busy are you, how important is your work, and what's the latest in politics." Have you ever noticed the different conversations you with your family and friend groups?
In this episode, I'm going to break down the five common conversation types we have as women: gossiping, commiserating, inspiring, listening, and healing. Because the truth is: hurt people hurt people. If you're running away from healing, you are hurting other people. I know that's not who you are or what you want to be doing. None of this is on purpose.
