  • Reinvention in Midlife and Building a Category of One with Cynthia Garcia

    Reinvention in Midlife and Building a Category of One with Cynthia Garcia
    Feb 9 2026
    I love conversations that remind you who you are before the world told you who to be. In this episode, I sit down with Cynthia Garcia, Founder of Rewritten Beauty, to talk about what it’s really like to start over in your 40s, the ego deaths that come with reinvention, and the fear that shows up when you leave what you’re known for to answer a deeper calling. Cynthia shares the emotional reality of launching a physical product brand, the pressure of having more to lose later in life, and why an “easy” life can quietly drain your sense of purpose. Tune in to know the difference between a personal brand and a living brand, how to create a category of one, and why people buy who you’ve become.

  • Why the Right Relationships Matter More Than the Right Contacts with Kristina Bartold

    Why the Right Relationships Matter More Than the Right Contacts with Kristina Bartold
    Feb 4 2026
    So many people think networking is about impressing the right people or getting close to whoever’s on stage. But the truth? The relationships that change your life are usually built shoulder-to-shoulder with people growing right alongside you. In this episode, I sit down with Kristina Bartold, co-founder of The Social Snippet and High Vibe Women to talk about how she turned one mastermind investment into years of referrals, speaking opportunities, and lifelong friendships by leading with value, playing the long game, and showing up with zero expectation. We also dive into podcasting as a relationship-building tool, why rooms matter more than algorithms, and how to make meaningful connections without feeling salesy, awkward, or transactional. Get ready to rethink networking and start building relationships that compound for years to come.
