  Episode #114

  Ep. 114 with Brenda Iris | Founder, Mindful Styling

  Aug 18, 20261h 34mS1

  Mindful Style, Real Confidence A teen pregnancy, an international move, immigration limbo, and a mental health breaking point are not the kind of milestones people put on a business plan, but they shaped Brenda Iris into the image consultant she is today. We talk through the real story behind Mindful Styling: what it takes to rebuild your sense of self when shame, scarcity, and survival have been running the show for years. Brenda shares what it was like to grow up between Mexico and the United States, learn English, and later face an immigration process that required her to leave the country for far longer than promised. We also unpack how “trust the process” becomes more than a slogan when your family is separated, paperwork gets lost, and your future feels out of your hands. Her perspective brings needed clarity to the human side of immigration, identity, and resilience. From there, the conversation turns to mental health, faith, and the turning point she calls her dark night of the soul. We get into therapy, prayer and meditation, and the moment she started asking a new question: who am I besides being a mom? That question becomes the spark for her personal styling work with high-achieving women, business owners, and leaders who look successful on paper but still feel stuck when they get dressed. If you’ve ever dressed to hide, tried to keep up with the Joneses, or felt imposter syndrome creep in, Brenda offers practical, grounding tools: dress for the woman you’re becoming, stop defaulting to “comfort” that drains your confidence, and use clothing as a strategy to amplify your presence.

  Episode #113

  Ep. 113 with Mary Younggren | Owner, Advent Talent Agency

  Aug 11, 20261h 31mS1

  Faith-Fueled Entrepreneurship She left an abusive, alcohol-fueled marriage with twin boys in tow, rebuilt her career from the ground up, and eventually grew into the owner of a boutique recruiting and staffing firm that can run without her. Mary joins us for a deeply human conversation about what it actually takes to survive big life transitions while still building a business with integrity, warmth, and staying power. If you’re navigating motherhood, entrepreneurship, or both, her story hits with honesty and calm authority. We talk about faith as a real-world leadership tool, not a slogan. Mary shares how Al-Anon shaped her understanding of codependency, boundaries, and the daily choice to shift from worry to prayer. We also get specific about leadership and delegation, including the mindset that finally let her step away for weeks: building a team with trust, clarity, and decision-making power, then practicing a true disconnect. Then we go somewhere unexpected and beautiful: Mary’s Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. Walking mile after mile becomes a mirror for purpose, self-talk, and slowing down, lessons she brings straight back into how she leads Advent Talent Group and how she thinks about work-life blend instead of chasing “balance.” Along the way, we touch the Enneagram, DISC, resilience through the recession and COVID-19, and why community groups matter for women business owners.

  Episode #112

  Ep. 112 with Lindsey Spitzer | Owner, Grow Strong Pilates Studio

  Aug 4, 20261h 54mS1

  From Chronic Pain To Grow Strong Pilates Your body has been trying to tell you something, and you do not need to “push through” forever. We sit down with Lindsey, a registered nurse, lifelong caregiver, and the founder of Grow Strong Pilates, to talk about what happens when motherhood makes health non-negotiable and chronic pain forces you to get serious about root causes. Her story starts with post-baby symptoms and neck pain that linger for years, then turns into a surprising answer: Pilates becomes the practice that helps her feel better in her body and quieter in her mind. We unpack what “integrated health” really looks like beyond quick fixes, from core strength and mobility to posture cues you can use while driving, gardening, or unloading the dryer. Lindsey also shares how her environmental horticulture background shapes the studio experience itself: a boutique Pilates space designed to feel healing, welcoming, and grounded, with small class sizes and real modifications based on the body in front of her. If you have ever wondered how to find a Pilates instructor you can trust, we get into certification, continuing education, and why not all Pilates teaching is created equal. The conversation goes deeper into identity and entrepreneurship too. Lindsey speaks candidly about body confidence in the wellness space, building systems that protect family time, and why her goal is not necessarily to quit nursing but to grow a community of like-minded instructors. Faith, risk, and service show up in practical ways, including how she supports caregivers who need one hour a week to breathe. If you are navigating postpartum recovery, chronic pain, holistic wellness, or the tug-of-war between calling and capacity, you will walk away with language, tools, and permission to advocate for yourself. Subscribe for more stories like this, share the episode with a friend who needs a stronger body and a softer landing, and leave a review so more women can find the show.

  Episode #111

  Ep. 111 with Zoraida | Owner, Zoraida's Kitchen

  Jul 28, 20261h 42mS1

  From Culture Shock To Chef Nothing tests your identity like moving to a new country with a baby and realizing even the chicken tastes different. We sit down with Zuraida, a Venezuelan chef, mom, and the founder of Zoraida’s Kitchen, to talk about culture shock in Minnesota, how the kitchen became her safe place, and why “breaking bread” is more than a saying. If you care about family dinner, healthier weekly meals, and food that feels like home, this conversation lands with heart. Zoraida shares the real path behind her private chef and catering work in Edina and the Twin Cities: starting in business school, making a brave pivot to culinary school, supporting herself through major life change, and learning the messy middle of entrepreneurship. We get practical about what it takes to run a service business end to end: menu planning, shopping, staffing, rentals, client expectations, pricing, and the constant pull to say yes to everything. Then the story expands. During COVID, she launches a second company, Ministry of Clean, alongside her mom, creating jobs and a safe environment for immigrant women. We also talk self-care that actually holds up under pressure: yoga, therapy, walking, sleep, boundaries, and the mindset shift that turns fear into forward motion. If you’ve been waiting to feel ready, let this be the nudge. Subscribe, share this with a mom building something, and leave a review with the biggest takeaway you’re bringing to your own table.

  Episode #110

  Ep. 110 with Maggie Hilpisch | Human Design Strategist

  Jul 21, 20261h 5mS1

  What If Your Energy Blueprint Is Correct You can love your kids, love your work, and still feel like you’re failing at both when you’re running on fumes. That’s why this conversation with Maggie Hilpisch hit so hard for me. We talk about the messy middle: sleep deprivation, postpartum anxiety, the identity “death and rebirth” of motherhood, and what happens when self-worth is the one thing you never learned how to build before you became responsible for everyone else. Maggie shares how discovering human design during early motherhood and the COVID era gave her language for what she’d felt her whole life, especially around energy, decision-making, and the pressure to keep up. We break down what human design is in plain English, why it can be such a powerful self-awareness tool, and how it becomes a surprisingly practical communication framework for relationships, parenting, leadership, and workplace culture. If you’re a mom entrepreneur navigating burnout, people-pleasing, or constant comparison, you’ll hear yourself in this. We also dig into what it looks like to build a real business around this work, from integrating human design into a real estate brokerage culture to stepping onto a national conference stage with six weeks’ notice, to developing retainer clients and team sessions. Along the way, Maggie gets honest about the inner critic, boundaries, asking for help, and the kind of friendships that call you higher. You’ll leave with concrete mindset shifts, a few tools you can try right away, and a reminder that action breeds confidence. If this resonates, subscribe, rate and review, and share it with a mom who’s building something big. What part of Maggie’s story do you want to talk about next?
