Your wildest dreams and your worst nightmares can absolutely happen at the same time, and I’m living proof. I’m back for Season 7 with a real-time debrief of the last six months of 2025: recovering from endometriosis excision surgery, navigating chronic inflammation, and trying to rebuild my nervous system while still leading a fast-moving women-owned brand. If you’ve ever felt like your body, brain, and business were all asking for attention at once, this one will hit home.

I also take you behind the scenes of the Woman Owned Wallet show pilot, from the joy of filming to the cracks that showed up in editing and communication. The hardest moment? Hosting a premiere party without having seen the final cut first. We talk creative control, boundaries, and what it means to show up in full integrity even when you’re scared, overstimulated, or unsure how things will land.

Then we zoom out to what’s next: the Woman Owned Wallet Tour and the idea that spending is community investment. I share why I’m reframing “customers” as community investors, how we’re mapping women-owned businesses in Louisville, Kentucky, and why financial wellness starts with where you choose to put your dollar. You’ll also hear about Penny the Piggy Bank, our new children’s book built to teach money mindset early, plus the growth of Pinkmas Bash and what it takes to design events with real care.

Finally, I tell the truth about closing the WoW storefront: the relief, the grief, the safety issues, the construction losses, and the identity shift of stepping away from retail. WoW is still here, expanding, and getting more aligned than ever. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s rebuilding, and leave a review so more people can find the conversation.
