This is the final episode in this seasonal series, and I’m so honored to close it with Paige Killian. I met Paige at ALIGN in 2024 and instantly loved her energy, her joy, and her steady, hopeful way of leading. She’s the founder of Everything With Style, a professional organizing company, a mama, keynote speaker, podcaster, and bestselling author of I’ve Got You, Girlfriend.

In this conversation, we talk about how Paige’s entrepreneurial spirit started early, how her years in the classroom shaped the way she teaches and coaches, and why organization is about so much more than tidy spaces. Paige shares her Three E’s philosophy to simplify anything in your home or business, and we talk about how clutter can steal clarity, peace, and momentum.

Then we go deeper into the pivot that changed everything. After the Palisades fires devastated her community and damaged her home, Paige shares what it looked like to keep moving forward with faith, perspective, and grace. We talk about taking help, resisting bitterness, and holding on to the belief that hard seasons are not how your story ends.

If you’re craving a reset, more clarity, and a simpler way to move toward your goals, this episode will meet you right where you are and remind you that small steps, anchored in faith and intention, can change everything.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with the incredible Corree Roofener, a true woman of impact and a repeat guest I love deeply. Corree is an accounting firm owner, podcast host, mama of six, and a nana, but what makes her story unforgettable is how she and her husband Chad have spent over a decade fostering children and eventually co founding the nonprofit Fostering the Summit. Their mission is simple and holy: no teen should ever age out of foster care without family, belonging, or support.

We go back to the beginning and talk about what led Corree into foster care in the first place, including the surprising and very human desire that started it all. As her story unfolds, you’ll hear how advocacy is often born in the quiet places, how courage grows when you finally decide to use your voice, and how compassion changes everything when you stop asking what’s wrong with people and start asking what happened to them.

We also talk about purpose driven business, why chasing success alone often burns people out, and why service and mission are not just good for the world, they’re good for growth. Corree shares a perspective that hit me hard: if even a fraction of small business owners chose to get involved in foster care support, we could flip the outcomes for thousands of kids every year. This conversation is an invitation to open your eyes, get curious, and do it for one, because one life can create a ripple that changes everything.

Corree also shares what it means to live a revolutionary life, and I loved her answer. Revolution doesn’t have to be loud. It can be bold. It can be a boundary. It can be one brave decision to stand for what’s right, even when it costs you something.

In this episode, I sit down with Michelle Gifford, an Instagram strategist who’s helped build six, seven, and eight-figure brands through her agency, and is also a mom of five. This conversation is for any woman trying to grow a business in a full, real life and wondering if she’s doing it wrong.

We talk about Michelle’s non-linear path from an Etsy shop to building a successful agency and why nothing you’ve lived is wasted. We dive into why so much mainstream business and marketing advice doesn’t work for moms, and why choosing mentors who actually understand your season of life matters more than flashy credentials.

Michelle breaks down what sustainable Instagram growth really looks like, including the difference between attraction, nurture, and sell content, why virality isn’t the goal, and why building an email list and owned platforms is essential for long-term success.

We also have an honest conversation about motherhood, guilt, and the fear that building a business will harm your kids. Michelle shares why your business isn’t ruining your children and how entrepreneurship can actually make you a more fulfilled, present mom.

We close with a powerful reflection on radical ownership, choosing the life you actually want, and what it means to live a revolutionary life alongside motherhood.

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Sammy Taggett, also known as Shoebox Moses, and I already know this conversation is going to move you. I met Sammy in September in JJ Virgin’s room because I always believe in putting myself in the room. He was DJing, creating the energy, and I could feel his heart from across the space. I went up to encourage him, and it turned into one of those instant “we’ve known each other forever” connections.

Sammy shares the raw, mind-blowing story of his beginnings: abandoned as a newborn baby in a shoebox in the Philippines, adopted, and later discovering the full truth right before traveling back to the orphanage for the first time. We talk about the guilt and shame that can come when you realize how blessed your life is compared to where you came from, and how gratitude, faith, and daily grounding practices become the anchor when success gets bigger and the shadows try to get louder.

He also takes us into a pivotal chapter of his life that honestly feels like a movie. From rock bottom moments to becoming a global DJ, Sammy’s story is proof that you don’t have to stay stuck in the season you’re in. If you’re going through hell, don’t build a house there. Keep moving.

Then we get into how he unexpectedly entered the podcasting world after giving JJ Virgin some radically honest feedback—and how that honesty opened the door to building Evolved Podcasting, helping hundreds of shows become real platforms, movements, and revenue-generating businesses. We also talk about business-building in this era of AI, why alignment matters more than ever when you can build faster than you’re ready for, and what it really means to live a revolutionary life.

Sammy will also be with us at ALIGN, speaking and helping create the experience through music and presence, and I cannot wait for you to feel his energy in person.

In today’s Seasonal Series episode, I’m sitting down with Kendra Cooke for a powerful conversation about productivity, boundaries, and building a life that actually feels good to live. Kendra brings over 30 years as a high-level real estate professional and 15+ years of coaching experience, and she shares the systems and mindset shifts that helped her scale without losing her peace.

We talk about the three changes that transformed everything for her: living and dying by your calendar, outsourcing in practical everyday ways, and embracing “no” as a complete sentence. Kendra gets real about the hidden cost of people-pleasing and overworking, and she shares a pivotal story about how hustle and the need to prove herself pushed her to a breaking point—until she finally chose boundaries, health, and self-respect.

You’ll also hear how her business improved when she set clear hours and standards, why the right clients will respect your boundaries, and what it looks like to “walk toward” the audience and opportunities you actually want. We close with the story behind her book and how journaling became a safe space for clarity and healing, plus her definition of living a revolutionary life: embracing change, growing with boundaries, evolving into your true self, and building a legacy that feels aligned inside and out.

In today’s Seasonal Series episode, I’m sitting down with Stephanie Bowman and I’m still moved by her story.

Stephanie is a philanthropist, certified life coach, author, and the founder of One Heart for Women and Children, which began from her car and living room and has grown into the largest food pantry in Central Florida, serving over 20,000 people every month.

But her impact didn’t come from a perfect path. Stephanie shares how surviving trauma as a teenager led to years of addiction, shame, and searching for “more” to fill a hole she couldn’t name. Through sobriety, faith, recovery, and community, she rebuilt her life from the ground up and turned her pain into purpose.

In this conversation, we talk about:

• Why addiction doesn’t discriminate and how the root often looks like shame, not “lack of willpower”
• The practices that shortened the spiral of self-doubt for her (and can for you), including gratitude, journaling, and reaching out
• What it really means when she says friendship is two-sided, and how she lives it through daily connection
• The moment One Heart was born, around a campfire, when high school students helped her name it, shape the mission, and create the logo
• Leadership lessons on surrender, letting others rise, and allowing your vision to become bigger than you
• How she navigates gossip, hurt, and interpersonal pain without quitting the mission
• The spiritual truth that keeps bringing her back to center: put God back in the driver’s seat
• What Align did for her personal healing, including a powerful breakthrough around music and safety
• Her definition of living a revolutionary life: freedom from guilt, shame, and the past
  

This episode is for anyone who needs hope, a reset, and a reminder that your past does not get to be your identity.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing what I believe truly creates a breakthrough year, not hype, not motivation, and not another list of goals you abandon by February. I recorded this message as we crossed into a new year, but it’s one you’ll receive exactly when you’re meant to.

I walk you through the ten internal and practical shifts that must happen if 2026 is going to be different. We talk about alignment and why misalignment becomes more painful the longer you tolerate it. We talk about your body as the foundation for everything you want to build and why you cannot out strategize exhaustion, inflammation, or a dysregulated nervous system.

I challenge you to look honestly at your calendar and your spending and ask if they reflect the woman you say you want to become. We talk about releasing the identity built on proving, breaking up with chaos and survival mode, and why structure is not restriction but safety.

I also speak candidly about poverty mindset, free consumption, and why investing in yourself is not indulgent but intelligent. We talk about creating from purpose instead of desperation, cleaning up your inputs, and why support is not weakness but self leadership.

Finally, I invite you into the most important shift of all, identity. Who you are becoming. Who you are called to serve now. And why breakthrough always follows identity, not effort.

This episode is an invitation to stop living on autopilot and to choose alignment, clarity, and expansion on purpose. If you’ve quietly given up or felt stuck in old patterns, this is your reminder that it is time to awaken, activate, and move forward differently.

Being in the right rooms and surrounded by the right people becomes a slingshot into alignment. Be at ALIGN AWAKEN 2026 this January 22-25 in San Diego. As a listener you can use code ALIGN20 to save 20% on any ticket type. Head to aligneventslive.com to save your seat.

In this episode, I sit down with Terrin Ammar, founder of The Queen Kollective and a woman whose presence you can feel the moment she speaks. Terrin’s work lives at the intersection of nervous system healing, feminine embodiment, and deeply connected relationships. And her story is powerful.

Terrin shares how surviving an abusive relationship became the catalyst for her life’s work. We talk about how trauma lives in the body, why mindset alone is not enough, and how true healing begins when women feel safe enough to soften. This conversation explores the integration of masculine drive and feminine embodiment, especially for high achieving women who are tired of burnout but afraid to slow down.

We dive into relationships, polarity, embodiment, and why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies, their joy, and their marriages. Terrin offers practical ways to shift from survival mode into love based leadership, both in business and at home. We also talk openly about faith, embodiment, and reclaiming the body as something sacred rather than something to fear or suppress.

This episode is an invitation to come home to yourself. To lead from love instead of fear. To stop waiting for someone else to change and take radical ownership of your own safety, softness, and power. Terrin also shares what she and Henry will be bringing to ALIGN, including a feminine embodiment experience designed to help women feel what alignment actually feels like in their bodies.

If you are craving deeper connection, a more alive relationship, or a new way of leading that does not require abandoning yourself, this conversation will speak straight to your heart.
