The RealHER Podcast

From Survival Mode to She-E-O Part. 2

Some stories do not even sound real… until you sit across from the person who actually lived them. Part 2 with Shelby is finally here, and somehow this conversation gets even deeper. In this episode of The RealHER Podcast, we continue Shelby’s story as she opens up about the chapters that came after the survival. We talk about what happens after the toxic relationships, grief, identity shifts, and chaos… when you are finally forced to rebuild yourself from the ground up. This conversation dives into healing, motherhood, entrepreneurship, nervous system regulation, self worth, rebuilding confidence, and what it actually looks like to become the woman you needed during your hardest seasons. But this episode is not just about trauma. It is about resilience, reinvention, entrepreneurship, & what it really looks like to go from survival mode to She-E-O. We talk about grief, healing, identity shifts, toxic relationships, motherhood, building a business through chaos, and the moments that force you to either give up or become someone entirely new. This episode is raw, funny, emotional, empowering, and proof that your past does not get the final say in your future.

From Survival Mode to She-E-O Part. 1

Some stories do not even sound real… until you sit across from the person who actually lived them. In this episode of The RealHER Podcast, Shelby opens up about growing up in a cult religion, surviving abusive relationships, navigating unimaginable loss, becoming a mother, and somehow continuing to rebuild herself through every chapter life threw at her.

Self Care is Wealth Care (Come Get Laser With Me)

Come with me for something a little different today. In this bonus episode, you’re literally coming along with me while I get laser treatments on my face with my friend Kenzie… and yes, we’re talking about everything. What it actually feels like, who these treatments are for, what they cost, the pros and cons, and the conversations people don’t always say out loud when it comes to beauty, money, and self-care. But this isn’t just about laser. This turns into a bigger conversation around why we spend money the way we do, what “taking care of yourself” really means, and how investing in yourself can come from a place of power, not insecurity. Because sometimes self-care is deeper than bubble baths and journaling. Sometimes it’s wealth care. Sometimes it’s choosing to feel good in your skin, on your terms. No shame, no judgment, just a real conversation about what it looks like to take care of yourself in this season of life.

Building Businesses >>>> Boys

This week, I’m sitting down with my friend Azy for a conversation that every ambitious woman needs to hear. We’re getting real about what dating actually looks like when you’re building something big, evolving quickly, and refusing to shrink yourself just to fit into a relationship. From choosing to be single on purpose, to navigating dating when your life is full, independent, and honestly… really good, we’re talking about the things people don’t always say out loud. This episode is funny, a little unhinged, and very honest. We get into the standards, the struggles, the patterns we’re unlearning, and what it really means to want love… without needing it. If you’ve ever felt like dating hits different when you’re in your growth era, this one is for you. We talk about: * Choosing to be single instead of settling * Why dating feels harder when your standards are higher * Balancing softness with ambition * The reality of modern dating as a driven woman * Knowing you want a relationship… but not just any relationship This is your reminder that you’re not “too much,” you’re just not available for the wrong things anymore. And honestly… that’s the whole point. .Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, don’t just listen,  join the movement.

The Bestie Hotline: #TBH, sometimes you gotta GO to GLOW

SHE SAID "I COME FROM THE LAND DOWN UNDAHHH"... I mean come on, who DOESN'T love that song?!?! In this bonus Bestie Hotline episode, I’m joined by my best friend of 17 years, Olivia DiMichele, all the way from Australia for a chaotic catch up, some brutally honest advice, and a little international bestie perspective. We get into what a real glow up actually looks like, why the best transformations start from within, how to handle friendships when people are not showing up the way they say they will, and what it’s really like building a life on the opposite side of the world from everyone you love. Plus, we' discuss Aussie life vs. America and do some fun rapid-style questions that'll give you the kind of blunt best friend advice your group chat should probably be having. If you’ve ever needed a long distance FaceTime with your brutally honest besties… this is that episode.   Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, don’t just listen,  join the movement.
