Building Your Crowded Table: The Power of Community in Life, Business, and Healing

Blending Business and Heart: Jessica Weaver Talks Women, Money, and Power

On this episode of Love Always, Lis, I’m so excited to welcome my very first guest—Jessica Weaver. Jessica is an award-winning TV host, best-selling author, certified financial planner, and the founder of The Wealth Boutique. She’s also the host of Women Behind the Millions, and in this conversation, we dive into so much more than just money. We talk about the intersection of money, relationships, and feminine vs. masculine energy—both in life and in business. We get into how men and women often approach finances differently (especially as entrepreneurs), and how intuition, trust, education, and alignment all play a role in the decisions we make. Jessica also shares why it’s so important to diversify beyond your business, and we both open up about our own experiences with healing, boundaries, and finding balance as women navigating leadership, motherhood, relationships, and everything in between. You’ll also get a little sneak peek into her upcoming book, The Pink Code, and of course, we wrap things up with a Silent Disco song that means a lot to both of us. This episode is equal parts inspiring and practical—and really an invitation to start building wealth, balance, and fulfillment in a way that actually feels good to you.

A Love Letter to You: Spring’s Invitation to Curiosity and Courage

Today’s episode is a little different. Instead of a story or a teaching, I’m sharing something that feels more like a letter—from me to you. As winter begins to turn into spring, I’ve been thinking a lot about seasons. The heavy ones. The quiet ones. The ones where it feels like nothing is really changing… until one day you notice the light hitting a little differently, or you feel that first hint of warmth again. In this episode, I reflect on those in-between moments and the small signs that remind us renewal is always happening. Sometimes it’s sunlight streaming through the windshield. Sometimes it’s the chickens outside joyfully announcing that warmer days are coming. Those little moments have a way of reminding us that change doesn’t always arrive loudly—it often starts quietly. My hope with this episode is that it gives you permission to move gently. To stay curious. To have a little soft courage with wherever you are right now. And maybe, just maybe, it inspires you to write yourself a love letter too… welcoming this next season of your life with kindness and pride. Love always, Lis Thank you for spending this time with me.

Building Your Crowded Table: The Power of Community in Life, Business, and Healing

In this episode, I’m talking about community—something I think a lot of women deeply crave but don’t always feel like they’re allowed to need. We’re often taught to figure it all out ourselves, carry everything, and prove we can handle it alone. But in my experience, the most meaningful growth has almost always happened in community. I share a few personal stories in this one—from the early days of building a business and gathering a group of incredible women in my apartment for what we called “Business Chicks,” to other moments in my life when I realized I needed a circle of support more than ever. Community doesn’t always look the way we think it should. Sometimes it’s a big, lively circle. Sometimes it’s just a few people who show up when life gets messy and real. But those connections—the ones where you can be fully yourself—are where so much healing, courage, and growth actually happen. My hope with this episode is that it inspires you to reflect on your own connections and maybe take a small step toward building—or strengthening—your own crowded table. Thank you for spending this time with me. If something stirred, softened, or settled while you were listening, trust that — nothing needs to be rushed.

One Brave Step at a Time

In this episode, I’m talking about how real transformation usually starts with just one brave step. Not a giant leap. Not a perfectly planned move. Just one honest, slightly uncomfortable moment where you choose courage. I share a personal story about something I call my “safari tree moment”—a random graphic that ended up sparking a much bigger shift in my life than I ever expected. It led me to speak up in a way I normally wouldn’t have, and that one small decision opened the door to deeper trust, big life changes, and some really incredible collaborations. What I’ve learned is that these moments don’t usually look dramatic when they’re happening. They’re often quiet choices to be honest, to show up differently, or to take a small step that feels a little scary. By the end of the episode, I’ll invite you to think about your own “safari tree moment.” What’s the tiny but brave action that might change everything if you just took it? And of course, we’ll wrap things up with a few reflections and our signature Silent Disco song pick to give you that extra little boost of courage. Thank you for spending this time with me. If something stirred, softened, or settled while you were listening, trust that — nothing needs to be rushed.

Bonus: A Steady Fire Within Meditation

Welcome to a special bonus episode of Love always, Lis.  This one is a deeply grounding meditation. I’m guiding you back to the steady fire that’s always been inside you—the quiet, unwavering source of power you don’t have to earn or prove. Whether you’re listening first thing in the morning or drifting into this before bed, this is your space to feel safe. To soften. To let go of urgency, pressure, and that voice that says you’re behind. We’re not trying to become powerful here. We’re remembering the strength that’s already yours. This meditation is about settling back into your body, reconnecting with your inner wisdom, and gently releasing self-doubt. You don’t need to do more. You don’t need to be more. You just need to stop abandoning what you already know. So get comfortable. Take a breath. And let’s come home to you. Love always. PS: Please don’t listen to this meditation while driving or doing anything that requires your full attention. Find a safe, still space where you can fully relax and be present. Thank you for spending this time with me. If something stirred, softened, or settled while you were listening, trust that — nothing needs to be rushed.
