S2, E8: Wellness On Your Own Terms with Morgan Hawes and Carley Pina

What does wellness actually look like when you're running a business and don't have time for a rigid routine? In this episode, co-founders Carley & Morgan get into an honest conversation about how we actually take care of our bodies and minds while building successful businesses. We talk wellness retreats, home gyms, snack strategy, and the mental tricks that keep us from burning out — no perfect routines, just what's realistically worked. This one's less about rules and more about giving yourself permission to do wellness your own way. In this episode, we talk about: * Carley's reset on a 5-day wellness retreat in Jamaica — and why she's making it a recurring thing * Why ditching rigid workout/sleep schedules in favor of "intuitive" movement actually works better * Home gym setups, meal preps, and snack strategies for staying fueled on a chaotic schedule * Why community and connection are an underrated piece of the wellness puzzle * The rising cost of "wellness" and why it shouldn't be a luxury good The takeaway: Wellness isn't a fixed routine — it's knowing your body well enough to give it what it actually needs, and giving yourself permission to let that change day to day.

S2, E7: Rewire the Root with Jordyn White

What if the strategies that got you this far are the exact things keeping you stuck? In this episode, we pull up a chair for Jordyn White, hypnotherapist and holistic trainer known as The Brain Trainer, to talk about what's really going on beneath the surface when high-achieving women hit a wall. After battling her own anxiety through every modality she could find, one three-hour hypnotherapy session changed everything and sent her down a path of learning to do for others what it did for her. Now blending hypnotherapy with fascia-based functional training, Jordyn has developed a whole-body approach to breaking unconscious patterns that no amount of discipline or strategy can reach on their own. In this episode, we talk about: * Why high-achieving women hit walls that hustle and strategy can't fix * How shame operates beneath the surface and fuels self-sabotage * What a breakthrough session actually looks like and why 6–8 hours changes everything * The connection between fascia, stored emotion, and physical symptoms in the body * Why avoiding your triggers is keeping you from what you actually want * The difference between real regulation and just numbing out * How the body and the mind have to work together to make change stick The takeaway: The work that actually moves the needle isn't always the work you can see, sometimes the biggest breakthroughs happen from the inside out.

S2, E5: "Are Dress Codes Dead?" with Marli Silver & Kelsey O'Connor

In this episode, co-founders Marli & Kelsey sit down for an honest conversation about how professionalism, fashion, and workplace expectations for women have completely evolved over the years. From the structured corporate looks of past generations to today’s more relaxed and fashion-forward approach, they unpack the gray area modern women now navigate in business, social media, and entrepreneurship. In this episode, we talk about: • How professionalism has shifted from appearance-based to presence-based • Why confidence and the way you carry yourself matter more than ever • The evolution of women’s workplace fashion from structured to relaxed • How COVID and remote work changed professional dress culture • The pressure women still face around appearance and being “taken seriously” • Social media’s influence on workplace style and personal branding • Why tailoring, styling, and intentionality can completely change an outfit • The double standards women face when femininity and professionalism overlap The takeaway: Professionalism today looks different than it did decades ago and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The rules have evolved, women have evolved and success is no longer tied to fitting into one rigid mold. At the end of the day, it’s less about dressing perfectly and more about showing up intentionally, confidently, and authentically as yourself.
