Hey Boss Ladies! 💼✨

In this episode, we’re getting into money mindset, financial planning, and the real talk behind building wealth as a woman in business.

I sat down with Lauren Chillinsky, a financial advisor with Northwestern Mutual (aka a total money boss), and we talked about everything from compound interest to why collaboration over competition is the key to growth in life and in business.

Lauren shares the power of starting small, the importance of diversifying your financial accounts, and why the best time to start is always right now.

This isn’t your average money convo; it’s relatable, energizing, and packed with boss lady wisdom to help you level up your finances and your mindset.

💡 If you’re a woman entrepreneur wondering where to start with investing, saving, or planning for retirement, this episode is your sign.

Hey BOSS Ladies!👋 💼✨

In this episode, I’m joined by the amazing Leslie Clark, founder of GYST Business, and she’s breaking down how delegation isn’t just helpful — it’s a boss move.

We’re talking about her journey from teacher to entrepreneur, how she helps business owners get their life (and schedule) together, and why burnout is a sign it’s time to stop doing it all yourself.

Leslie also introduces us to the Freedom Compass, a tool that helps you figure out what to keep, what to delegate, and what to let go of so you can step fully into your CEO role.

👑 Ready to get out of overwhelm and into your zone of genius? Hit play. This one’s for every woman building something big, bold, and bossed up.
