Ep. 98 with Alissa Ochs | Real Estate Investor & Founder, Gemhaus Design

Ep. 104 with Christi Cossette | CEO, Cossette Transformation Coaching

Fulfilled And Limitless A bright blazer turns into a big conversation about identity, ambition, motherhood, and what success is supposed to feel like. I sit down with Christy Cassette, a corporate finance transformation leader and executive coach, and we get honest about the hidden weight so many women carry: leading at work while also managing the mental load at home, often without the support men routinely receive. If you’re wrestling with burnout, confidence, or that quiet feeling that you’ve outgrown your current season, this one will land. We talk about designing a values-driven life instead of living by someone else’s definition of success, plus the practical systems that make “balance” possible: hiring help, planning content a month ahead, setting boundaries, and treating career moves like a mutual fit rather than a permission slip you’re begging for. Christy also shares how prayer and discernment shape her decisions, why rejection can be redirection, and what it looks like to keep walking toward a calling before you know exactly how it will unfold. Then the conversation goes deeper. Christy opens up about learning in utero that her son has Down syndrome, the intense pressure she faced to abort, and how her family’s story rewired her views on purpose, performance, and what a “fulfilled life” actually means. Expect candid stories, mindset shifts you can apply today, and encouragement that doesn’t sugarcoat the hard parts.

Ep. 103 with Olivia Hornig | Co-Owner, Lakes Sotheby's

A Shared Goal System Turns Marriage Into A Team Sport You can love your family and love your ambition and still feel like you’re failing at both when the calendar is packed and the phone never stops. That tension is exactly what we get honest about with Olivia Hornig, co-owner and leader at Lake Sotheby’s International Realty, as we talk through what it really looks like to build a business with your spouse while raising kids, navigating grief, and staying grounded when the market shifts under your feet. Olivia shares her path into real estate entrepreneurship alongside her husband Jeff, including the behind-the-scenes reality of division of labor, growing pains, and the quiet leadership required to keep the “back end” of a business running. We talk about hiring help before burnout hits, why a 90-day trial can save you heartache, and how real estate leadership changes when you commit to an agent-driven culture built on kindness, responsiveness, and real support. We also dig into brand alignment and why the Sotheby’s network and reach can elevate opportunity in ways people don’t expect. We go personal too: matrescence and identity shifts, the control we think we have until motherhood humbles us, and how faith practices like Bible study, prayer, yoga, and meditation can become real tools for time management and peace. Olivia also shares a simple tradition that keeps their marriage aligned year after year: handwriting goals together across family, business, travel, and giving. If you’re a mompreneur, a woman in real estate, or anyone building a life and a business at the same time, hit play and take notes.

Ep. 102 with Maggie H. & Kelly C. | BIOHARMONY HEALTH

Perimenopause Made Livable You can love medicine and still be crushed by the way it’s practiced. Kelly Casserly and Maggie Hildebrand are OBGYNs, moms, and co-founders of BioHarmony Health in Edina, Minnesota, and they don’t sugarcoat what full spectrum obstetrics can demand: overnight call, chronic sleep deprivation, and a “push through” culture that follows you from residency into real life. We talk about how that pressure shows up at home, how identity gets tangled in a title, and why motherhood can be the wake-up call that forces a hard, honest re-evaluation.  From miscarriage grief to pandemic-era fear, they share the moments that made them realize something had to change. That change wasn’t a sudden leap, it was a plan: mentorship, building systems, learning the business side, and shaping a clinic model that gives women more time and deeper care. We dig into perimenopause symptoms that often start long before hot flashes, including anxiety, irritability, brain fog, sleep disruption, weight changes, joint pain, libido shifts, and the simple but powerful line so many women say: “I don’t feel like myself.”  We also get practical about what integrative menopause care can look like when it’s still grounded in evidence based medicine: lifestyle pillars (nutrition, movement, sleep, stress), targeted supplements, thoughtful hormone therapy, and labs that help rule out thyroid or adrenal issues while also watching long-term risks like cardiovascular disease. If you’ve felt rushed, unheard, or overwhelmed by social media health advice, this conversation offers a calmer path forward.  If this resonates, subscribe, share it with a friend who’s struggling, and leave a review so more women can find real perimenopause and menopause support.

Ep. 101 with Sarah Schaffer | Realtor, Lakes Sotheby's International Realty

Pivots That Pay Off A $6,000 loss on a house flip that turns into 11 leads. Four kids in six years while walking construction sites and picking tile. A partnership offer that lands like a “cinder block from heaven.” Sarah Schaffer’s story is the kind that makes you rethink what progress looks like when you’re a working mom building a business in real estate. We talk about what drives a smart pivot: leaving a comfortable boutique brokerage to join Sotheby’s for continued growth, new standards, and the kind of mentorship that changes how you work. Sarah shares how partnering with Anne Shaeffer reshapes her view of time, boundaries, and long-term sustainability in a career where the phone never stops. We also get specific about the practical systems that keep an entrepreneurial household running, from shared calendars to kids learning real responsibility instead of being “managed” 24-7. Then the conversation shifts into what most people don’t see: neurodiversity in the family, a late autism diagnosis at 16, dyslexia, and the hard hindsight that comes with connecting the dots later than you wish you had. Sarah’s honesty opens up bigger questions about community, support, and how we advocate for our kids and ourselves. We also hold space for deep grief after a sudden family loss, and how faith and the Live Like Gina Foundation help transform pain into purpose. If you’re building a real estate career, navigating motherhood identity shifts, or trying to create real work-life balance without burning out, this one will stay with you.

Ep. 100 with Jaime Chapman & Becky Beaulieu | Championship Culture At Home

Championship Culture At Home Your kid strikes out, double-faults, falls in a routine, or melts down after a mistake and suddenly your whole body feels it too. We get it and we go there, honestly. Kelly sits down with Becky Beaulieu of Championship Culture Coach and Jaime Gaard Chapman of Gaard Performance Academy to talk about the messy middle of raising young athletes while also running a business, managing a marriage, and trying to stay steady in your own skin.  Becky shares the turning point that made “culture” impossible to ignore and why winning is often the byproduct of habits you cannot see on a stat sheet: body language, standards, team-first behavior, and the courage to address conflict instead of sweeping it away. Jaime adds what she’s learned coaching across generations, why youth sports feel more professionalized than when we grew up, and how Gen Z athletes respond to autonomy, ownership, and leadership that listens.  We also dig into sports parenting pressure, identity, and the car ride home. How do you hold high standards without tying your mood to their score? When does opportunity become overload for the whole family? What are practical ways to manage time and energy as a working mom, including batching, deliberate communication, and scheduling joy before tournaments take over the calendar? You’ll leave with mindset tools, language that protects your child’s confidence, and a clearer definition of what a healthy “championship culture” can look like at home.  If this hits close to home, subscribe, share it with a sports parent friend, and leave a review so more families can find the support they need. What part of sports parenting feels hardest for you right now?
