312. Awakening, Abundance & Ancient Wisdom — Rewriting Your Money Story with Halle Eavelyn

312. Awakening, Abundance & Ancient Wisdom — Rewriting Your Money Story with Halle Eavelyn
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 affecting how we approach money right now. Halle had a profound moment in the dining room of a Nile cruise ship during a guided meditation. She received a download that hit every cell of her body: "You have a soul and you will never die." That spiritual awakening sparked a 30-year exploration into consciousness, intuition, and how women can reclaim their birthright to wealth. If you've been wondering why you haven't been making more money, or if you've been feeling stuck around the idea that you deserve wealth - this conversation is for you. This is episode 312 of the Game On Girlfriend podcast. I'm Sarah Walton, and I help women entrepreneurs build businesses they love through authentic sales strategies and money mindset work. What You'll Learn Halle's unshakable spiritual awakening in Egypt—and what happened at the Temple of Philae Why money is energetic (not just emotional) The "trauma inheritance" that affects women's wealth-building How women become their own gatekeepers around funding and wealth (and how to stop) Why money is just a story we tell ourselves—and how to rewrite that story What's coming economically and why women need to prepare now (financial tsunami by 2027) Simple ways to start rewriting your money story right now Practical steps to reclaim your financial power, including passive income strategies Why Sarah loved the idea of creating small wealth circles with friends How to follow your intuition breadcrumbs from awareness through action into results Related Episodes You Might Love Ep 307: The Grace Codes: Leading with Feminine Power Ep 263: How Your Nervous System Shapes Your Money Habits Ep 227: How to Clear a Money Fog Connect with Halle Eavelyn About Halle Eavelyn Featured in Time Magazine, USA Today, and Good Morning America, Halle is a Transformational Wealth Coach, speaker, and writer who helps women clear their old patterns and beliefs so they can call in the financial power that brings freedom. Drawing on over 30 years of business experience in software, real estate, film production, and travel, Halle's work with intuitive modalities is both deep and extremely fast, with clients experiencing powerful shifts in their thinking, feeling, and behavior regarding wealth. Her latest programs include Wealth Elevation and CryptoCurious. After her awakening in Egypt, Halle wrote the spiritual travel memoir Red Goddess Rising and has led over 30 spiritual journeys up the Nile. She's also the author of 100 Ways To Be In Joy, NutriGlamorous: How To Be Beautiful Inside and Out, and her latest book, The Passive Income Power Plan: 108 Ways to Make Money While You Sleep.

311. Soul Setting Over Goal Setting: A Year-End Reflection for Women Entrepreneurs
12/16/2025
311. Soul Setting Over Goal Setting: A Year-End Reflection for Women Entrepreneurs
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 craving alignment, this episode will guide you back into the truth of your work and the meaning behind it. This isn't about your social media calendar. It's not about your to-do list. This is about deeply connecting with YOU. There is no one else but you. What you'll hear about: How grief and pause can bring clarity The difference between soul setting and goal setting Journal prompts to help process the past year with depth and direction Aligning your business with your real rhythms (not hustle habits) How to return to yourself—and your why—before a new chapter begins Want support with your own year-end clarity? Two additional 1:1 year-end planning sessions have been opened for listeners of this episode. If you're ready to look at what truly aligned strategy looks like for you (with nervous-system friendly structure + some soul), book your planning session here: Aunt Wendy's Episode mentioned: Episode 148: My beautiful Aunt Wendy talks about finding your life purpose, following joy, and trusting those nudges when making big decisions.

310. How One Courageous Conversation Led to 11.6 Million Lives Impacted with Carrie Rich

310. How One Courageous Conversation Led to 11.6 Million Lives Impacted with Carrie Rich
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 boss walked her through mapping her life in increments. Not just her career. Her entire life. What she wanted to fund. What "enough" actually looked like. How to plan for children she didn't have yet, travel dreams, philanthropy goals, continuing education. That napkin exercise became the foundation for everything she built. If you're dealing with economic anxiety, struggling to access funding, or questioning whether your business can make it through uncertain times - this conversation will light something up inside you. Carrie shares why women only receive 2% of venture capital, what actually makes entrepreneurs fundable, and how to define what "enough" looks like for YOU (not what Instagram says you should want). This is episode 310 of the Game On Girlfriend podcast. I'm Sarah Walton, and I help women entrepreneurs build businesses they love through authentic sales strategies and money mindset work. Ready to grab your own stack of napkins? Let's do this. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How to stay courageous when you're scared Turning your values into capital & momentum Making bold moves without burning out A transparent look at financial planning for women entrepreneurs Supporting underrepresented founders through mentorship & venture support Related Episodes You Might Love Ep 95: When Your Life Falls Apart Because of Money (And Your Career Is Born) Ep 214: Coaching the Unconscious Mind: Unlock Your Genius Ep 1: Don't Live A Life of "Almosts" Connect with Carrie Rich Website: Facebook: Instagram: YouTube: LinkedIn: About Carrie Rich Carrie Rich believes in making the world better through business and leadership. That is why she co-founded The Global Good Fund over a decade ago to invest in high-potential, overlooked social entrepreneurs. Many entrepreneurs need access to capital to scale, so Carrie went on to found and manage the Global Impact Fund, which is dedicated to investing in socially impactful businesses, primarily led by overlooked founders. Her fourth book, Impact The World: Live Your Values and Drive Changes as a Citizen Statesperson, was published by Wiley in May 2022 and is now a WSJ and Amazon Best Seller. Carrie gives back by serving on corporate and nonprofit boards and by volunteering in her local community with her three young children. Carrie's fundamental message is about accessibility - everyday people can empower themselves and others.

308. What Trauma Actually Costs Entrepreneurs (And Why Sean/a's Story Will Restore Your Faith) | Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison

308. What Trauma Actually Costs Entrepreneurs (And Why Sean/a's Story Will Restore Your Faith) | Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison
We're harsh with each other right now. Judging people we don't know based on where they live or how they voted. But what if we got curious instead? Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison spent 35 years as a trauma psychologist working with severe PTSD, dissociative identity disorder, schizophrenia, and near-death experience survivors. This conversation changed how I see everyone—including myself. High achievers are often high-functioners—people who've adapted to trauma in remarkably creative ways. The executive who never misses a deadline might be falling apart inside. The entrepreneur who appears unstoppable could be privately compensating for relationships that are struggling. Dr. Harrison explains the hidden costs of trauma that show up in our businesses and relationships. She shares the BASC framework (behavior, affect, sensation, knowledge) and why severe trauma creates protective barriers that help us survive but can limit our ability to connect later. We also talk about Sean/a's story—an intersex woman with schizophrenia who slept on cardboard for eight years. One rainy night, one moment of compassion changed everything. Ten years later, she's never been back on the streets. She walks 15 miles a day, has a million social media views, and teaches thousands about resilience. This episode is for anyone who's survived something hard. For anyone loving someone who's struggling. For anyone wondering if we're going to make it as humans. There’s hope here. And truth. And a reminder that healing isn’t linear, but it is real. What You'll Learn The hidden cost of trauma most don’t recognize What near-death experiences reveal about the mind and soul Understanding Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) in real life Spirituality as a tool for post-traumatic growth The inspiring story of Sean/a—intersex, unhoused, and profoundly human How empathy, curiosity, and storytelling remake the world Related Episodes You Might Like Ep 263: How Your Nervous System Shapes Your Money Habits with Stephanie Crochet Ep 196: Are You a Lazy Overachiever? with Naketa Ren Thigpen Ep 207: Let Your Ambition Fly with Monique Allen Connect with Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison About Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison is a trauma psychologist, author, and founder of Soul Wise Solutions. For over 35 years, she has helped individuals navigate profound psychological and spiritual transitions — including those living with complex PTSD (C-PTSD), dissociative identity disorder, schizophrenia, and near-death experiences. Her integrative approach blends clinical expertise with compassionate soul work to support true, lasting healing. She is the co-author of “I, Sean/a: The Story of a Homeless Intersex Woman Who Inspired a Community,” the true account of Sean/a Smith, an intersex woman with schizophrenia whose life defies stigma and inspires change. Together, they advocate for an end to outdated medical practices and a future rooted in dignity and inclusion. Whether she’s speaking, writing, or working with clients, Dr. Harrison brings insight, depth, and humanity to conversations about trauma, identity, and transformation.

307. Stop Hustling & Start Leading with Grace: The Grace Codes with Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh
You can't 10X your business by just working harder. Actually, the harder you push, the more you push away what you're trying to create. Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh shares The Grace Codes framework—and this conversation wrecked me in the best way. Five hours into climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, a guide asked Dr. Kelly to hand over her backpack. She refused. Every other woman had surrendered theirs, but she insisted she was fine. Then she realized she was weaving on the trail—a sign of oxygen deprivation she hadn't even noticed. The truth? It took 28 porters and guides to get 5 women to the summit. You need a village to scale anything meaningful. But first, you've gotta say yes when someone offers help. In this episode: The Grace Codes framework (Release, Reclaim, Rewrite, Receive), power amnesia, worthiness work, and why the woman who got you here won't take you to your next level without burning you out. Dr. Kelly is the founder of the Gen X 10X movement. She recently raised $40K climbing Kilimanjaro to build a school in Tanzania. What You'll Learn The Grace Codes: 4 steps from survival to surrender (Release, Reclaim, Rewrite, Receive) Why "power amnesia" keeps you from remembering how powerful you are How to separate worthiness from productivity and bank account balance Why receiving is the hardest step for high-achieving women How Dr. Kelly went from $130K in debt to tripling her business without working harder What Human Design reveals about your energetic blueprint for success The Great Pause is happening right now, and what it means for women entrepreneurs Why it takes a village to 10X anything meaningful Related Episodes You Might Love Episode 270: The Truth About Learning to Manifest with Alea Lovely Episode 227: How to Clear a Money Fog with Mikelann Valterra Episode 299: From Corporate Layoffs to Creative Freedom with Trinette Faint Special gift from Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh Free Human Design Chart: Discover your unique energetic blueprint for 10Xing your success without the hustle.

298. How to Become Your Own Bank: Infinite Banking for Women Entrepreneurs with Erica Neal
What if the key to financial freedom wasn't another retirement account… but a completely different way of thinking about money? In this episode of The Game On Girlfriend® Podcast, Sarah sits down with finance educator and founder Erica Neal to talk about infinite banking—a strategy that uses custom-designed life insurance policies to help you grow wealth, keep liquidity, and still protect your future. What You'll Learn Erica shares her unfiltered story: from teen mom to Wall Street to building her own wealth management firm, centered on empowering financial education. The conversation dives into: What infinite banking actually is (and the myths that keep people nervous) How the wealthy use these policies for funding projects, reinvesting, and creating a legacy Why compounding interest and control matter more than flashy returns Erica's "buried vs. planted" concept—how to grow through challenging seasons Episode Summary This isn't your typical financial advice episode. Erica breaks down exactly how infinite banking works with real numbers - you typically get 80% access to your money in year one, dollar-for-dollar by year four, and often more than you put in by year five thanks to compound growth. She tackles the biggest concerns head-on, like why those acquisition costs aren't actually problems, but rather smart, long-term moves. You'll hear how to use policy loans while your money keeps earning, why dividends from mutual insurance companies add extra returns, and how this fits with your other investments instead of replacing them. Erica's journey from Wall Street product-pusher to genuine wealth strategist shows what happens when you put clients first.

Though she was able to obtain success & company recognition for her achievements, Erica knew there was a better way to build her clients' wealth. To provide more comprehensive strategies for her clients, Erica left the large box company to join a boutique, independent financial firm where her planning process transitioned from a narrow focus on rate of return to building efficient cash flow strategies and increasing income through alternative assets and the Infinite Banking Concept. In addition to expanding her financial planning methods, Erica also began to invest in real estate. Eventually, Erica and David White decided to merge their practices and open their own firm to focus on their passion…. cash flow strategy. Since co-launching Infinity Investment Strategies, Erica has continued to build her real estate portfolio as both a passive and active investor, acquire businesses, and provide resources on Infinite Banking education and services for investors. As an Authorized IBC Practitioner, Erica provides information and resources to investors and business owners about the power of the Infinite Banking Concept in their portfolio. As a speaker, Erica's expertise extends to the intersection of mindset and money, unraveling the barriers that hinder personal growth and prevent individuals from realizing their fullest potential and building wealth. Having become the "Go To" group for creative financial strategies and Infinite Banking, Erica continues to build her businesses and educate on "Real Money Truths", de-mystifying how to build wealth and helping others create a strategic plan for generational impact.

296. Money, Motherhood & Multifamily: Creating True Freedom With Mandy McAllister
What does real financial freedom look like for a mom? It's not about choosing between wealth and presence - it's about creating both. In this powerful conversation, Sarah sits down with real estate investor and GoBundance Women leader Mandy McAllister to explore how women can build genuine freedom through smart property investing. Mandy's story starts with a tear-filled breakdown in a hospital parking lot and transforms into a blueprint for escaping corporate burnout without sacrificing family time. From medical device sales to building a real estate empire centered on values (not hustle), she proves that you can think bigger, move smarter, and stop waiting to prioritize your real life. This isn't your typical real estate podcast episode. This is about feminine energy in business, receiving instead of forcing, and creating wealth with intention rather than endless grinding. Whether you're starting from scratch or ready to level up your existing portfolio, consider this your permission slip to finally take action. What You'll Learn The exact moment Mandy knew she had to leave corporate (and how $2,000 in rental income saved her) Why multifamily investing beats single-family properties every time Her house hacking strategy that eliminates housing costs while building wealth How to manage properties with intention, not burnout The difference between masculine "attack mode" and feminine receiving energy in business Practical steps for moms who want both wealth and presence with their families Why going bigger in real estate is actually easier (and the government incentives that prove it) How she turned property renovation into bonding time with her teenage daughter Episode Summary Beyond the real estate strategies, this episode reveals the deeper transformation possible when women reject hustle culture for sustainable wealth building. Mandy's house hacking approach eliminates housing costs while the live-in flip method can generate hundreds of thousands in tax-free profits - but the real magic happens in the mindset shifts. The conversation explores why multifamily properties offer better financing and easier management than single-family investments, with government incentives that make larger deals more accessible. Mandy's daily dashboard system allows her to manage 373 units without being tied to her phone, proving that scaling doesn't require sacrificing presence. A standout moment involves Mandy and her 15-year-old daughter spending 36 hours renovating a rental unit together - work that created deeper bonding than typical parent-teen interactions while teaching practical wealth-building skills. This hands-on approach demonstrates how real estate investing can strengthen family relationships while building generational wealth. Sarah and Mandy discuss their upcoming collaboration and the movement they're creating for women who refuse to choose between financial success and family connection. The episode includes exclusive access to Mandy's signature course for listeners ready to begin their own real estate journey.

295. Making More Money Doesn't Start with Marketing
You're told to niche down, get visible, raise your prices, do the things. And you want to—you're smart, you're trained, maybe you have certifications stacked like pancakes. But still, something keeps stalling. In this episode, I'm sharing why strategy only works when your nervous system actually feels safe receiving success. Through real coaching stories and scientific insights, discover the hidden connection between your childhood experiences, nervous system responses, and your ability to earn more money. This isn't about branding or marketing—it's about the inner work that makes or breaks your next chapter. Learn why profit comes AFTER safety and how to build a business from the inside out. What You'll Learn Why highly educated, certified professionals struggle to sell their services despite having all the qualifications How to spot when what looks like self-sabotage is actually your nervous system trying to protect you The real reason you keep procrastinating, undervaluing your work, or avoiding follow-up calls Why success feels dangerous instead of thrilling if you grew up in chaos, poverty, or pressure How childhood experiences of instability directly impact your adult earning capacity and business confidence The difference between building confidence through external validation versus internal safety How to hold your pricing like a spell, not a price tag, and develop unshakeable confidence in your worth Why your "weird" passions and unconventional life chapters are actually your biggest business advantages The concept of nervous system anchoring and creating emotional contracts with yourself for success Practical steps to build safety before you build your brand, so your strategy actually works How to shift from "I can do this once I'm more confident" to "confidence comes through doing" Why feeling behind or stuck doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong—you're just building on the right foundation Key Topics Covered • Nervous system regulation for entrepreneurs • Trauma-informed business coaching approaches • The connection between childhood experiences and adult earning capacity • Self-sabotage patterns in high-achieving women • Safety versus growth in business development • Internal blocks to pricing and visibility • Converting unique life experiences into business value • The psychology of money and success fears • Healing as a prerequisite to business growth • Building containers for client transformation Episode Summary In this powerful solo episode, Sarah is challenging everything you've been told about building a successful business. Opening with the frustration many entrepreneurs feel—having all the right credentials and training but still feeling stuck—Sarah introduces her revolutionary concept that "you earn at the speed of safety." Through intimate coaching stories, she reveals how a client learned to hold her pricing "like a spell, not a price tag," and how confidence doesn't come from external validation but from building internal safety first. Sarah explains the neuroscience behind why success feels dangerous to those who grew up in chaos or instability, and how what we label as "self-sabotage" is often brilliant self-protection. The episode explores how your unconventional story and "weird" passions are actually your greatest business advantages, not obstacles to overcome. Sarah addresses the common entrepreneurial fear of being "behind" or "late," reframing this experience as being perfectly positioned to build sustainable success on a solid foundation. Throughout the episode, Sarah weaves together psychology, neuroscience, and practical business wisdom to create a roadmap for building businesses from the inside out. She emphasizes that the real work isn't about perfecting your marketing funnel—it's about creating safety within your nervous system so that strategy can actually work. The episode concludes with an invitation to examine where you still feel unsafe to be seen, receive, or trust yourself, positioning these insights as the true portal to business transformation and sustainable income growth.

294. Scale Your Business Without Burning Out - The Life-Proof Strategy with AnnMarie Rose
What if scaling your business didn't mean working more—or burning out? How to scale without working more hours is the question every entrepreneur asks. In this episode of the Game On Girlfriend® Podcast, Sarah sits down with Online Business Scaling Strategist AnnMarie Rose, who proves you can build a business that fuels both your income and your life. They get real about the strategies that actually work to grow a business sustainably: from workshop models that convert, to refining your offer suite, adapting to life transitions, and trusting your own clarity instead of falling back on outdated "rules." Whether you're making $100K or still finding your footing, this conversation is filled with actionable strategies to help you hit your growth goals minus the hustle hangover. What You'll Learn How to scale with clarity and energy (not chaos and coffee) The secret sauce behind high-converting paid workshops (hint: specificity sells) AnnMarie's favorite reframe that makes "scaling" feel less scary and way more doable Why high-achieving women often hit an income ceiling—and how to break through it Ways to update your offers without losing revenue How to adapt your business model during major life transitions The difference between growth mode (0-100K) and scaling mode (100K+) Why "when people pay, they pay attention" changes everything about lead generation How to test new profitable offers without burning your current business to the ground The vision-intensive process for mapping out sustainable business growth in 2025 Key Topics Covered Business Scaling Fundamentals • Why scaling feels scary and how to overcome that fear • Life-proof business strategy principles • Smart improvements vs. starting over from scratch Paid Workshop Strategy • Why paid workshops outperform free webinars in 2025 • How to choose workshop topics that fill consistently • The power of specificity in cutting through marketplace noise • Using workshops to test new offers and business directions • Converting workshop attendees to high-value clients Business Model Optimization • Offer suite refinement without losing current revenue • How to position your message to reach more ideal clients • Building businesses around life priorities, not the other way around Mindset and Strategy Integration • Overcoming the "I don't want to go back there" scaling resistance • How to feel confident about trying new strategies • Trusting your own clarity instead of outdated business rules • Creating sustainable success that supports your dream life Episode Summary In Episode 294 of the Game On Girlfriend® podcast, Sarah Walton interviews AnnMarie Rose, an Online Business Scaling Strategist who specializes in helping entrepreneurs grow without burning out. AnnMarie demonstrates her own life-proof business principles while sharing actionable strategies for sustainable business growth in 2025. The conversation begins with AnnMarie's unique approach to scaling: building businesses that fuel both income and life satisfaction. She addresses the common fear many entrepreneurs face when they hear "scale" - the terror of returning to the exhausting chaos of their startup days. AnnMarie emphasizes that scaling is about strategic refinement and leveraging existing assets, not starting over from scratch. AnnMarie reveals her powerful reframe for scaling that eliminates overwhelm. She breaks down her signature paid workshop strategy, explaining why specificity sells in today's marketplace, and she outlines her complete life-proof business framework. The episode explores AnnMarie's signature strategy: paid workshop trends for business coaching. She explains why paid workshops are outperforming free webinars, sharing insights about how specificity sells in today's noisy marketplace. Her key insight, "when people pay, they pay attention," revolutionizes how listeners think about lead generation and client acquisition. AnnMarie reveals how entrepreneurs can test their most profitable ideas using workshops before fully committing to new offers. This approach allows business owners to validate concepts while maintaining current revenue streams. She also discusses how to adapt business models during major life transitions, proving that sustainable growth is possible even during significant personal changes. Throughout the interview, AnnMarie provides practical frameworks for building what she calls a "life-proof business" - one that supports entrepreneurs' dream lives rather than consuming them. The conversation covers offer suite refinement, strategic messaging, and the mindset shifts necessary for sustainable scaling without working more hours. The episode is particularly valuable for entrepreneurs who have achieved initial success but feel stretched thin and are afraid that growth means returning to unsustainable work patterns. AnnMarie proves that scaling can be strategic, sustainable, and aligned with personal values and life goals.

293. Detours Are Inevitable, Suffering Is Not
When Sarah's car breaks down on the highway with six teenage girls after their perfect Martha's Vineyard vacation, what could have been a disaster becomes an unexpected lesson in joy and resilience. In this vulnerable and insightful episode, Sarah shares how these young women taught her that suffering through life's setbacks is optional, not mandatory. That joy doesn't have to be earned through struggle-it's our birthright when we stop demanding life follow our script. What You'll Learn: How to shift from automatic suffering to conscious joy when plans fall apart Why teenagers often demonstrate better resilience than adults in crisis situations The difference between toxic positivity and genuine emotional flexibility during setbacks How to maintain access to joy even when circumstances aren't ideal Why releasing control over outcomes can lead to unexpected breakthroughs Practical strategies for turning detours into adventures in business and life How to model healthy responses to disruption for others in your care The mindset shift that transforms obstacles into opportunities for deeper connection In this powerful episode of Game On Girlfriend®, Sarah Walton transforms a highway car breakdown into a masterclass on resilience and joy. When her vehicle dies while driving six teenage girls home from Martha's Vineyard, what begins as every parent's nightmare becomes an unexpected adventure filled with TJ Maxx perfume testing, Starbucks phone charging sessions, and parking lot volleyball games. Through this raw and honest storytelling, Sarah explores how these young women demonstrated something profound about approaching life's inevitable detours: suffering through setbacks is a choice, not a requirement. While adults often automatically shift into stress mode when plans fall apart, these teenagers showed her how to maintain access to joy regardless of circumstances. The episode delves deep into the cultural conditioning that teaches us we must "earn" happiness through struggle, and how releasing our grip on control can open us to experiences more beautiful than our original plans. Sarah shares practical insights for business owners and parents about modeling healthy responses to disruption, finding community in chaos, and choosing adventure over anxiety when life doesn't go according to script. This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending everything is fine-it's about recognizing that our response to disruption matters more than the disruption itself. That joy is our birthright when we stop demanding the universe follow our timeline.

292. Business Success Isn't a Race. It's a Frequency: What Happens When Strategy Isn't the Answer Anymore
In this transformative solo episode, abundance expert and business coach Sarah Walton reveals why traditional business strategies often fall short and shares the energetic approach to growth that's changing everything for ambitious women entrepreneurs. Through personal stories, including a remarkable synchronicity involving a pair of jeans, Sarah explores how shifting from chasing to receiving can revolutionize your business results. If you've built a successful business but still feel stuck, exhausted, or like you're forcing every outcome, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on scaling with soul, strategy, and sanity. What You'll Learn: 1. Why "just being strategic" stops working at higher levels of business success 2. The difference between chasing abundance and allowing it to flow to you naturally 3. How your nervous system impacts your ability to scale sustainably 4. The power of making clear requests to the universe while releasing attachment to outcomes 5. Why community and being truly seen are essential for business expansion 6. Real client transformation stories that prove it's about becoming, not just doing 7. How to shift from over-functioning to receiving what's already trying to reach you 8. The energetic frequency that successful entrepreneurs embody versus those who struggle Sarah Walton challenges the conventional wisdom that business success comes solely from better strategies and harder work. Drawing from 18 years of entrepreneurial experience, she reveals how the most successful business owners operate from a different frequency altogether-one of alignment, trust, and receiving rather than constant chasing and forcing. The episode opens with Sarah's powerful assertion that "businesses don't fail, they quit," setting the stage for a deeper exploration of what happens when entrepreneurs move beyond survival mode into true abundance. Through the delightful story of manifesting the perfect pair of jeans, Sarah illustrates how the universe responds when we make clear requests without attachment, demonstrating principles that directly apply to business growth. Sarah addresses the loneliness and isolation many entrepreneurs face, explaining how the quality of our daily conversations shapes our business reality. She emphasizes that successful scaling isn't about finding better tactics, but about becoming the person who can hold larger results without breaking. The episode includes inspiring stories from her Abundance Academy, where clients have achieved 7x revenue growth by shifting their energy and approach. Key insights include understanding that 90%of sales is energy while only 10% is what you're selling, the importance of surrounding yourself with the right community, and how our nervous system either supports or sabotages our next level of success. Sarah concludes with practical guidance on moving from strategy-focused to frequency-focused business building.

291. From Corporate Exec to AI Oracle - How Rachel Loewenherz Built Star Path to Heal the World Through Astrology and AI
07/29/2025
291. From Corporate Exec to AI Oracle - How Rachel Loewenherz Built Star Path to Heal the World Through Astrology and AI
What happens when a Yale-educated tech executive loses everything and builds an AI that reads your soul? In this powerful episode, Sarah sits down with Rachel Loewenherz, founder of Star Path AI, to explore the intersection of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge technology for business strategy. After surviving four pregnancy losses, corporate layoffs, and a profound spiritual awakening, Rachel combined her market research expertise with deep astrological knowledge to create Star Path—an AI Oracle that helps entrepreneurs understand their cosmic blueprint for success. This isn't about generic business advice; it's about discovering how you're uniquely wired to make money, communicate authentically, and build a business that feels aligned with your soul. Rachel shares her journey from feeling like "a red hot Ferrari who thought she was a minivan" to building spiritual infrastructure that's helping women entrepreneurs worldwide navigate uncertainty with cosmic clarity. Learn why your second house reveals your money blueprint, how AI can make ancient wisdom actionable, and why the wobbliness you're feeling in business might be exactly where you're supposed to be. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting your business journey, this conversation will shift how you think about strategy, authenticity, and the power of knowing yourself at the deepest level. What You'll Learn: How to identify your unique money blueprint using astrological insights Why traditional business strategies might be failing you (and what to do instead) The difference between spiritual entertainment and actionable self-knowledge How AI can compress complex astrological data into daily business decisions Why we're in an "Age of Aquarius" moment of decentralization and what it means for entrepreneurs How to use cosmic timing for launches, marketing, and major business decisions The power of receiving as a core leadership strength in uncertain times How to create marketing that sounds authentically like you (not generic AI copy) Why abundance doesn't always mean wealth and how to define it for yourself Strategies for navigating business challenges during collective transformation In this transformative episode of Game On Girlfriend®, host Sarah Walton welcomes Rachel Loewenherz, the Yale-educated founder of Star Path AI, for a deep conversation about combining ancient wisdom with modern technology to create aligned businesses. Rachel's story begins in corporate America, where despite professional success, she felt increasingly disconnected from her purpose. After surviving multiple pregnancy losses and experiencing betrayal in the business world - including being laid off on the day she was promised a VP promotion - Rachel found herself at a crossroads. The turning point came through an astrology reading where she learned she was "a red hot Ferrari who thought she was a minivan." This revelation sparked years of study in spiritual healing modalities. Eventually, it led to the creation of Star Path, an AI Oracle that uses astrological data to provide personalized business guidance. Unlike traditional AI tools that offer generic advice, Star Path understands each user's unique cosmic blueprint. The platform helps entrepreneurs understand their money-making patterns, optimal communication styles, and ideal timing for major business decisions. Rachel explains how your astrological "second house" reveals specific information about how you're designed to generate wealth and what abundance truly means for you personally. The conversation explores why we're living through a significant collective shift - what Rachel calls the "Age of Aquarius" - characterized by decentralization of power and information. This explains why many entrepreneurs feel "wobbly" right now; we're in a period of necessary transformation where old systems are breaking down to make way for more authentic, aligned ways of doing business. Sarah and Rachel discuss practical applications of cosmic business strategy, including why certain marketing approaches feel completely wrong for some people while working perfectly for others. Rachel shares her own experience of trying TikTok marketing because "everyone said to go viral," only to have it fail spectacularly because her chart indicated she should "optimize for resonance over reach." The episode concludes with insights about the future of entrepreneurship, where knowing yourself deeply becomes the ultimate competitive advantage. As AI makes professional-quality marketing accessible to everyone, authenticity and personal truth become the key differentiators. About Rachel Loewenherz: Rachel Loewenherz is the founder of Star Path—an AI oracle powered by astrology. She's a Yale-educated business strategist & tech marketer, former Chief of Staff, and 2-time CEO. But that's just on paper. Behind the scenes, Rachel was losing pregnancies, healing from PTSD, and having a massive spiritual awakening. That's when she found astrology. Now she's building Star Path—an AI that helps people remember who they are and become who they came here to be.

290. From Cash Flow Crisis to Confident CEO with Jennifer Kok

290. From Cash Flow Crisis to Confident CEO with Jennifer Kok
Small business owner Jennifer Kok opened her cookie business and delivered her second daughter just two days later—literally delivering babies and cookies on the same day. After running her business for 20 years and experiencing everything from bounced paychecks to franchise success, Jennifer now helps overwhelmed entrepreneurs transform into confident CEOs without burning out on social media. In this raw and honest conversation, Jennifer shares the real statistics behind small business failure (spoiler: they don't fail, they quit). She reveals the predictable pattern that causes entrepreneurs to walk away right before their breakthrough. From managing cash flow crises to building your personal board of directors, this episode pulls back the curtain on the messy middle of entrepreneurship. It provides actionable strategies for pushing through the plateau. If you've ever felt isolated in your business, questioned whether you're cut out for entrepreneurship, or wondered how to pay yourself properly, this episode offers both practical solutions and the emotional support every business owner needs to hear. What You'll Learn Why 50% of small businesses actually quit rather than fail, and how to avoid becoming part of that statistic The predictable pattern that hits entrepreneurs around year 3-4 and how to navigate "the messy middle" How to build your personal board of directors with five specific types of advisors The critical difference between working in your business versus working on your business How to conduct a business breakthrough strategy, starting with your numbers Why profit margins matter more than revenue and how to calculate what you're really earning How to find your micro audience and unique differentiator without fear-based thinking Cash flow management fundamentals that prevent payroll crises The mindset shifts that separate successful entrepreneurs from those who quit This episode features Jennifer Kok, a business coach with 25 years of entrepreneurial experience who literally delivered her baby and cookie orders on the same day she opened her business. Jennifer challenges the common belief that small businesses fail, arguing instead that they quit, particularly around the 3-4 year mark when entrepreneurs hit what she calls "the messy middle." The conversation covers Jennifer's journey from corporate America to cookie business owner, including a humbling moment when she had to put payroll on a credit card during a family vacation. This crisis became a turning point that led her to master business fundamentals and eventually help other entrepreneurs avoid similar pitfalls. Key insights include the importance of building a personal board of directors (comprising five specific types of advisors), understanding profit margins over vanity metrics such as revenue, and developing systems for working on your business rather than just in it. Jennifer emphasizes that entrepreneurial challenges aren't character flaws but navigation points toward better systems. That isolation kills more businesses than a bad strategy. The episode explores the psychological aspects of entrepreneurship, highlighting the interconnection between personal and business growth, and provides practical strategies for financial management, targeting micro-audiences, and maintaining confidence during challenging periods.

287. The $68 Trillion Wealth Transfer: Why the Future of Money is Feminine with Chelsea Williams

287. The $68 Trillion Wealth Transfer: Why the Future of Money is Feminine with Chelsea Williams
The largest wealth transfer in human history is already underway - and women are positioned to inherit the majority of it. But most women aren't prepared for what's coming, and the implications extend far beyond individual bank accounts. In this transformative episode, I sit down with Chelsea Williams, fractional CFO and self-proclaimed "money whisperer," who reveals the shocking truth about women's exclusion from the financial system and why the next 20 years will reshape society itself. Chelsea accidentally discovered accounting in college when everyone told her to avoid it. That "mistake" led to a career revelation: she had a natural gift for numbers, but more importantly, she understood that money conversations needed a completely different approach - especially for women. Episode Highlights: The Historical Context Most Women Don't Know Chelsea breaks down the "financial algorithm" - how the financial system was built by and for white male property owners for 99% of its existence. Women couldn't even get credit cards without male co-signers until 50 years ago. We were literally listed as assets on men's financial applications. The Coming Wealth Revolution, as baby boomers pass away over the next two decades, trillions of dollars will transfer to their heirs - with the majority going to women. This represents the first time in history that women will control this level of wealth, but it also threatens to dramatically widen the wealth gap. Why Women Handle Money Differently Research shows that when women control financial resources, entire communities benefit. We're natural multipliers - whatever you give us, we make it grow and share it. But we've been taught to negotiate and invest using masculine strategies that don't align with our strengths. A Revolutionary Social Impact Vision Chelsea shares her groundbreaking project: converting vacant nursing homes (left empty as boomers pass away) into supportive community living spaces for single mothers, complete with financial literacy programs, childcare, and mentorship. It's a perfect example of how women can use inherited wealth to create systemic change. The Skills We Need Now Financial literacy isn't optional anymore - it's essential preparation for this generational shift. But Chelsea emphasizes we don't need to become masculine to succeed. We need to lean into our natural strengths while building competency in negotiation, investment strategy, and wealth management. What You'll Learn: Why the wage gap is partially about skills we were never taught (and how to close it) The generational patterns embedded in women's DNA around money How to prepare yourself and your business for unprecedented economic change Why supporting other women isn't just nice - it's strategically essential The balance needed as men navigate their changing role in this new paradigm This conversation will fundamentally shift how you think about money, opportunity, and your role in the largest wealth transfer in human history. The future truly is feminine - but only if we step into it with intention and preparation. Guest Bio: Chelsea Williams is a fractional CFO, money strategist, and founder of Money Mastery. With over a decade of experience working with entrepreneurs and individuals on their finances, she's discovered that money conversations are "always and never about the money." Her mission is to splash color on the traditionally black-and-white topic of finance, especially for women preparing for unprecedented economic opportunity.

286. Mastering Magnetic Communication Through Masculine/Feminine Balance with Nicola Navon
When your business relationships mirror your personal ones, there's a deeper pattern at work. Nicola Navon, relationship communication coach and host of the Divine Union podcast, discovered this firsthand when her people-pleasing patterns in romantic relationships showed up as client codependency in her business. In this conversation, Nicola shares her signature Union Method framework and explains how balancing masculine energy (structure, boundaries, direct communication) with feminine energy (intuition, receptivity, play) creates magnetic communication that builds both intimacy and influence. You'll discover why vulnerability without grounding leads to collapse, how to communicate desires from empowerment rather than desperation, and the critical difference between healthy manifesting and controlling behavior that kills results. Whether you're struggling with client boundaries, romantic relationships, or finding your authentic voice as a leader, this episode offers practical strategies that work in both boardrooms and bedrooms. What You'll Learn Why people-pleasing in relationships creates codependent client dynamics How masculine energy grounds you so feminine energy can play The courage required to discover what you actually want versus what you think you should want Practical steps for identifying your needs and communicating them powerfully Why control kills manifestation and how to take action without forcing outcomes How to hold yourself through rejection while continuing to show up authentically The connection between your internal relationship and all external relationships About Nicola Nicola Navon is a speaker, communication, and leadership coach who specializes in relational dynamics. As the host of the Divine Union podcast, she helps individuals master the art of influence and create vibrant, impactful relationships in leadership, love, and life. Her signature Union Method framework blends three core pillars: balance, communication, and polarity energetics. Nicola bridges self-mastery and thriving relationships, understanding that who you are at work shapes who you are in relationships and vice versa Connect with Nicola Podcast: Episode Highlights "Two people choosing to relate with each other. Not out of codependency, not out of need, but out of true depth." "I couldn't until I worked on my healing my masculine and bringing it in. I wasn't able to put myself out there in relationships and business as vulnerable." "Think of the masculine like it's your roots of a tree. It's your groundedness in who you are, what you're about, the agency behind your words, the conviction in what you say."

285. Creating a Multi-Million Dollar Franchise Business Out of Joy with Rhea Lana Riner

285. Creating a Multi-Million Dollar Franchise Business Out of Joy with Rhea Lana Riner
When I tell you you can start a business out of anything, do you have like an internal eye roll? Today’s guest started a business out of her living room. You can start a company simply because you want to help others. It really is that simple, but simple doesn’t mean easy. Rhea Lana Riner is the CEO and founder of Rhea Lana’s Children Consignment Events, a national franchise with 120 locations in 26 states. What started as a simple clothing swap in her living room has evolved into a multi-million-dollar business. Listen for the moments of courage – we're talking about the courage to start small and try again when something doesn't work exactly as planned the first time. It takes courage to keep going when you're not sure what the next step will look like. Rhea Lana was a stay-at-home mom who grew up in a military family. She was an introvert and, according to her, not someone you'd call a leader. “There was a season in our life where my husband left the corporate world and went into nonprofit work. We moved to another state, and I had these three small children under the age of five,” says Rhea Lana. She loved the hunt for secondhand shopping. However, the experiences with secondhand shopping weren't great at that time, ranging from garage sales to consignment stores – Rhea Lana felt there had to be a better way with more accountability. She got 11 women to sign up as consignors. It was a win. But no shoppers came to her first sale. She asked for a second chance and got to work on grassroots invitations. She printed flyers and made yard signs. “I wanted each mom that was selling her things with me; I wanted her to be able to see exactly what sold and exactly how much so that there would be no questions of just integrity of what happened.” You really can start with nothing and turn it into something. As women we're so creative; we generate idea after idea. It's essential that we find joy in what we do in business, and we don't have to undertake huge, risky ventures. It can be moment by moment. Rhea Lana says for that first sale, expectations were low. She remembers when she made $200; it was a win. She went out and bought a fancy purse – the first new thing she'd bought for herself in a long time. “Because all the money that came in, it went for the kids, or the bills, or the house payment. And I do think that's what women do experience,” says Rhea Lana. “We tend to put ourselves last. And so when I did this little business, all of a sudden, Of course, there was some tension.” She had to spend money but also felt the freedom to buy for herself, which was motivating. She says that the push for growth helped her narrow her focus to grow and increase her earnings. Her business grew gradually with each event. After working for a few years, Rhea Lana realized she was making in one event what a friend made in a year. “It was just part of the journey of probably giving me the push I needed to kind of take that next step towards franchising.” She didn't have the money to hire a consultant; instead, her sister helped her test an event in another community. She read "Franchising for Dummies". “It just kind of felt manageable. And, sure, there's a level of risk, but just a small amount. And we didn't know if anybody would buy it. I had no idea.” For some women, chasing their dreams or finding their purpose in life is about being good at what they do. Success isn't cookie-cutter. Expanding into your joy and what truly makes you happy and trusting yourself to have the courage to take step after step -- that's a little bit different for everybody. Free gift: Book a complimentary, 30-minute consultation call to offer women in your audience valuable insights on the next step in their journey.

284. Why Marketing Online Feels Awful with Authority Coach Christine Blosdale

284. Why Marketing Online Feels Awful with Authority Coach Christine Blosdale
Is marketing online enough to make you want to stick a fork in your eye? If you've been feeling that way, I want you to know one, you're not alone, and two, something's happening in online marketing that not enough people are talking about: the authenticity factor. We have a nose for BS. We know when people feel desperate. We know when things aren't going well. We know when someone is showing up just to show up, because they think they're supposed to. If you've been wondering how you can show up in an authentic way and have people really be attracted to you and not in the I'm going to call it the “white broligarchy way”, but in the, “Hey, I have this amazing thing and I think I can help way,” -- this is going to be the episode that's going to help you get there. Christine Blosdale is the expert authority business coach. She successfully guided more than 500 business owners, coaches, authors, and nonprofits in developing and expanding their brand and business, helping them achieve magnificent growth and success. If you've been feeling stuck about how to market and how to show up just as yourself, you're going to want to pop in those earphones. Christine says her whole trajectory has always been about helping people and creating. From speaking the truth in assessing a client’s work, to helping them share their natural gifts, she says it’s about zeroing on each person’s individual superpower. “I use my intuition when I'm working with clients to see their expert authority, their gift,” says Christine. “If they're not conveying that in a real clear way, as a lot of business owners, a lot of entrepreneurs do, then they need just need help in getting the word out the message.” She remembers helping her mother get ready for work each day. Her mom would always ask how she looked, seeking Christine’s opinion. “At a really young age, I think that formulated something within me that, oh, I have value in what I, you know, what I think,” says Christine. “To this day, if I go to a hotel or a spa or wherever, a restaurant, I'll pick out the things that they're doing well.” This extends to her clients. She says especially as women, we suffer from limited beliefs about what we can accomplish and imposter syndrome. “My job is to really dismantle all of that, because the stories that we say to ourselves, even when we're at the top of our game and where we've got such great skills and wisdom -- it's that story that we're not good enough; who's gonna listen to me?” Christine says people stepping into their passion and acknowledging their strengths isn’t ego or arrogance. It’s tapping into who we were, not who the world wants us to be. You can’t be an impostor if you’re being your authentic self. “You'll reach a certain age and reach a certain point in your life, and you'll look back and you go, ‘Oh wow. I did all this for other people but what I could have done is at least tap into those passions that are important to me.’ You could have even been a better role model.” Christine says a common challenge for her clients is visibility. Often, when she looks at their website and socials, she finds the scent of desperation in their content. “No one wants to necessarily go onto a sinking ship,” she says. “That is a real game changer for people because it flips the script. … It's, ‘hey, I'm here. This is why I'm so confident in what I can do.’” Christine says it’s important to look at the socio-cultural landscape. People are moving away from the Kardashians and Dynasty-type perfection. They’re looking at content creators and speakers who are authentic and relatable. “You want to have that authenticity and that relatability going out so that your people will come to you,” says Christine. “The less perfect you are, the more people are going to be attracted to you.” Free gift: Free copy of “The Social Media and Branding Survival Guide”: Take the expert authority quiz: Connect with Christine Blosdale: Other GoG episodes you might want to check out: Marketing Not Working?

283. How to Find Your Signature Talk With Speaking Coach Jen Oliver

283. How to Find Your Signature Talk With Speaking Coach Jen Oliver
Are you someone who wants to give a TED Talk? The entire idea of that platform is ideas worth spreading. Maybe you want to be better on stage or understand what makes a speaker so compelling. There's something that makes people connect to us when we're on a screen or on a stage. Sometimes, it works, and sometimes, it doesn't. How does the person's authentic, awesome, gooey-goodness self get up and deliver something that hits us in a way that is so compelling we can't look away? Jen Oliver has devoted her life to becoming a speaking coach. As an executive producer, she's deeply connected to the entire TEDxCommunity. Jen coaches women to speak with impact and is highly effective at helping her clients show up REAL while leveraging their story, mission, and embodiment to exert a powerful influence. To understand how Jen pulls people onto the stage to share her story, she begins with her own. She recalls her second marriage—she rushed into it. She thought she'd restored the legacy for her children after her first marriage ended and herself as an upstanding woman. She was with a wonderful man but didn't belong in the marriage. She wrestled with the truth of it. It was making her feel sick and ill at ease in her body. She remembered what a relationship mediator told her, "It is so profoundly unkind to not tell the truth. You're torturing another person because you're they're dealing in the absence of communication. They are dealing with a fiction That's so far worse than the reality. Give them the dignity of the truth. Speak your truth." Jen had to admit she didn’t belong in the marriage. "It's those little moments where we look at what is the dis ease? Where am I not showing up true? Where am I not saying what is honest? Like, where's that voice?" says Jen. Jen says she's unconventional in her work as a speaking coach because she focuses on authenticity and sharing that truth as a means of connection beyond the typical tips of how to be persuasive, make eye contact, etc. Helping people tell their truth puts energy behind their words, ideas, or coaching. Whether you're on stage in front of 4,000 people or in the boardroom, you have energy watching you, and if you don't meet that energy, it will bowl you over. “Here's what happens and is the mistake: We don't partner with and see that energy there in service to us,” says Jen. “We instead take it as an indictment and an indicator that we're somehow inadequate for that task.” Those feelings of fight or flight are normal because this is a higher-stakes situation than your average moment in the day. "Let's teach you to drop into your body, which is what I do with women is drop into your body, connect with that. Let's partner with it," says Jen. "I'm real, showing up like a real human as opposed to this perfectly polished, managed little automaton." Jen says we need to pay attention to what we've grown numb to. Before her business took off, Jen needed to own the parts of herself she was ignoring so that she could help others. When you do that personal work, it really is the precursor to other things. You can, in fact, shake the nervousness off – it resets your nervous system. You can hold your truth and have your nervous system contain it. “It doesn't mean that when the contraction happens in that same week, because it's this ebb and flow, that something's wrong, or you're not making the progress. You are,” says Jen. When Jen works with others to find their signature talk, she asks them to slow down. "I believe that the body if you can slow down long enough and regulate and listen to it, is the voice of spirit and soul. It holds memories, it holds emotions, it holds so much wisdom and data points," says Jen. She asks her clients to tap into their bodies instead of their minds—the mind can be a bully. If you want to give a TEDx Talk, start by connecting yourself to your deepest, truest wisdom. "Some of those people, their talk shifts a little bit, and the premise behind their talk, and their main tenets and talking points and the thing they ache to give their audience morphs and changes," says Jen. "It's their truer work."
