What No One Told My Husband About Marrying an Ambitious Woman
In this candid and heartfelt episode of The Strategy Hour Podcast, I’m joined by my husband, Jared, for an honest conversation about marriage, gender roles, and what it’s really like to work together as spouses in a growing online business. We explore what happens when traditional expectations are flipped and the wife is the breadwinner and the husband leaves a corporate career to work behind the scenes. Jared opens up about his identity shift, family reactions, and the challenges of balancing love, feedback, and entrepreneurship under one roof.
If you’re navigating work-life integration, redefining masculinity, or building a business with your partner, this episode is packed with vulnerable insights and real talk about marriage, ambition, and modern roles.
Build for Your Bandwidth
In this episode of the Strategy Hour Podcast, we challenge the relentless pursuit of “more” and explore what it really means to build a business that matches your current season of life. Discover why scaling down can be a powerful strategy, how to define your own version of enough, and why sustainability beats hustle. If you're craving a business model rooted in rest, flexibility, and long-term alignment, this conversation is your permission slip to design with your bandwidth in mind.
Crop Top Confidence: How to Get Out of a Business Funk

Topics include:
• Getting out of a business rut
• Mindset tips for entrepreneurs

Friendships in Your 30s and 40s: Loving, Losing, and Letting Be
I don’t know a single person in their 30s and 40s who doesn’t want deeper and more meaningful friendships. The last place I expected to get friendship advice was from Mel Robbins’ new book, The Let Them Theory, but today, I want to share the unexpected ways this book shifted how I think about making, retaining, and even releasing friendships, especially in the complicated season of adulthood that is your 30s and 40s.
How to Live Freely in a Goal-Obsessed World with Anne-Laure Le Cunff
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by traditional goal-setting, stuck chasing someone else’s version of success, or paralyzed by the fear of getting it wrong, this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air. Joining me is Anne-Laure Le Cunff, an award-winning neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and the founder of Ness Labs, where her insights on lifelong learning, curiosity, and adaptability reach more than 100 000 curious minds every week.
Creating Without Guilt: The Middle Ground Between Hustle & Balance
We've been conditioned to believe that work falls into one of two extremes: either you're grinding non-stop, pushing yourself to exhaustion, or you've mastered the elusive work-life balance. But what if that’s a false choice? As a creator, I’ve realized that some of my work doesn’t feel like work at all. It can be play, it can be art, and it can feel deeply satisfying.
False Narratives: Those That Can’t Do, Teach
Your knowledge is your currency! For years I feared that what I was doing wasn’t real business and I felt like I had to prove myself. I think we feel strange about this because it’s unfamiliar, not because it’s wrong. The world of traditional business is rapidly changing and you are building an online business at the beginning of the new digital frontier. Of course it’s hard to feel like an expert when everything is just beginning.
I Quit Cold Turkey
For years, I held myself back. I made excuses. I played small. But one day, I made a decision. I quit. Cold turkey. No warning, no second-guessing. And I’m not talking about a bad habit. I quit everything holding me back—100 things! Today, I’m going to tell you exactly what I walked away from. After you hear them, you might decide to quit a few too.
This is the first time I’ve done an episode like this– it’s much shorter than usual because I want you to simply listen, reflect, and then take action TODAY.
