Growing Louder and Guilty Pleasures
Grown-Ass Woman's Guide
03/22/23 • 39 min
Imagine this: You're in an airport bathroom in Reno, Nevada. You're feeling crampy and cranky because it's that time of the month, so you reach for a maxi pad. What you see when you open the package angers you, enrages you really; so much so that you decide to stop and write an open letter to the company that made said maxi pad.
That's pretty much what happened to Wendi Aarons. And it was the very thing to begin to change the trajectory of her life. The award winning humorist, writer, opinionated tweeter and self-proclaimed Fanilow is now a published author (her first two books written when she was 54). Her book I'm Wearing Tunics Now: On Growing Older, Wiser and a Hell of a Lot Louder is a stroll down memory lane for any Gen X woman finding her way -- and herself.
About: Wendi Aarons is a writer and award-winning humorist whose work has frequently appeared in outlets like McSweeney’s and The New Yorker, among many others. She is the author of the middle-grade novel Ginger Mancino,
Kid Comedian, SOCKS from Chronicle Books, and a contributor to the Listen to Your Mother: What She Said Then, What We’re Saying Now and Keep Scrolling Til You Feel Something anthologies. She is a popular speaker and teacher on humor, and lives in Austin with her family. And her tunics.

Grown-Ass Woman's Guide
01/24/23 • 52 min
If you've been waiting for a new episode of TGAWG, this is the one to hear! In October of 2021, I attended She Podcasts Live, a conference for women and non-binary podcasters. At that event, I ran into a couple of women I knew through work we had done with Elsie Escobar, one of the She Podcast founders. They were sitting around a table outside the pool area and immediately, we just started talking about the podcasting industry and creativity and a variety of other professional and personal topics.
15 months later, we're still having conversations sparked by that weekend in Scottsdale, Arizona. Jen Edds and Marion Abrams have become friends, confidants, creative sounding boards, truth tellers... They've brought so much to my life. And my favorite part? They're not afraid to hold me accountable.
That is one of the themes for 2023 for me -- personal accountability, something I used to struggle with. BTW If this is something you struggle with, I am working on creating a small accountability group in the coming weeks. Email me if you want to learn more!
Guests:
Jen Edds is an energetic keynote speaker that delivers a memorable message using songs instead of slides to educate and entertain audiences. What else would you expect from a Gen Xer raised on School House Rock and VH1 Storytellers? When Jen isn’t speaking, you can find her working as a podcast consultant and producer - helping others share their voices and big ideas with the world. Jen hosts The Brassy Broadcast and also loves practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu and podcasting about it with her coach on the Beauty and the Gi podcast. You can tune in wherever you listen to podcasts.
Marion Abrams is a podcasting producer & consultant with deep experience in podcasting and content creation. She built Spartan's podcast from 0 to over 40 million views & downloads. She's worked on a range of projects from social media advisor on a gubernatorial campaign, to creating the documentary film "Flood Bound", to directing TV ads for Vermont Lottery. On her own podcast "Grounded Content" she explores what drives customer actions, and where the lines are between persuasion and manipulation. For 30 years Marion has helped businesses, organizations and individuals clearly convey their message. Marion is also the official podcasting coach for Hubspot's creator program, and helps other thought leaders, business leaders, and podcast hosts to design and elevate their podcast presence.

Betrayal. At this point in your life, you've probably felt betrayed at one time or another. But what does it really mean?

A Powerful Tool to Get Unstuck
Grown-Ass Woman's Guide
10/22/21 • 35 min
There’s nothing more grown-ass than creating a sisterhood of support. Women who lift each other up, call each other forward when necessary, and do it all with an open heart and mind. This episode came to be when I went to speak at She Podcasts Live over the weekend and came home feeling like a better person.
During the conference, I spent a lot of time with three incredible women. We laughed so much, supported each other and really challenged each other to show up in new ways. Speaking of challenges, one of the women in the group did a whole talk about not overcoming unexpected challenges in your life, but creating challenges to help you become the human you're truly capable of becoming.

Lose Weight for the Last Time
Grown-Ass Woman's Guide
03/02/21 • 38 min
If you’ve been wanting to lose weight and find yourself getting excited about the new fad diet, I’m here to let you off the hook. You don’t need that. In fact, I am totally against all of the crazy messages the diet industry shoves down our throats, trying to trigger our insecurities. We all know that’s what they’re doing but they craft such compelling messages, the next thing you know we’re buying a thigh master... or a bag of powder filled with ingredients we can’t even pronounce.
Meet Nagina Abdullah. Nagina lost 40 pounds over a period of several months and was going to just leave it at that. She was working long hours in her super successful day job and had a couple of kids at home. But more and more people would ask her for recipes and guidance, and Nagina followed the calling that led her to where she is now - is a health coach for women professionals, physicians, and successful entrepreneurs. She works with those who’ve found success in so many areas but just couldn’t crack the weight loss code. Maybe you can relate to that.
If you’re as inspired as I am, check out Nagina’s FREE 5-Day Slim Down for Fierce, Feminine Leaders.
About Our Guest: Nagina Abdullah is a health coach for women professionals, physicians, and 7-figure entrepreneurs and founder of the website MasalaBody.com. She teaches women to lose 20-40+ pounds even while working 60+ hours a week and if they have tried everything. Nagina has a degree in Molecular and Cell Biology from UC Berkeley and has helped over 700 professional women successfully lose weight and create a lifestyle change. She has been featured in Health.com, Business Insider, People.com and more.

5 Things You Can Do THIS WEEK to Create an Abundant 2019 with Danisha Danielle Wrighster
Grown-Ass Woman's Guide
12/27/18 • 40 min
What if you could spend a couple of hours taking simple steps that would be a complete game changer for the year ahead?
You can.
Danisha Wrighster is a multi-millionaire commercial real estate expert who has turned her life around with a combination of strategy, determination and a clear mindset. Today, she's sharing her wisdom to help us become even more abundant in 2019.
In Danisha’s eyes, motivating others through their challenges to success and happiness is the driving force behind why she shares her journey. With style all her own, Danisha hopes to inspire people to shift their mindset from scarcity to abundance and gratitude so they can reap the benefits of a life that is greater than they ever imagined.
A young, single, jobless mother on government assistance, Danisha began her commercial real estate brokerage career. With the odds stacked against her, Danisha worked 60-80 hour weeks (often with her daughter in tow) to establish herself in the industry. After not making any money for over 7 months, her hard work paid off. She earned $212,000 in commissions in 5 months and was awarded Rookie of the Year for the #1 commercial real estate office in the company. Two years later, Danisha bought her first home and her first investment property in the same month. It would be the first of multiple partnerships and individual purchases that contributed to the $6.5+ million real estate portfolio and an award-winning Keller Williams real estate team that she owns today.
Danisha began blogging financial advice to women and mothers using the business acumen she learned during the course of her career. She’s appeared on several national talk shows and was the host of Oprah Winfrey Network's OwnShow. Danisha also appeared as a real estate expert on FOX TV’s primetime show “Home Free.”
Danisha honestly and openly shares the tools, mistakes, lessons, and experiences that changed her life and re-created her financially through television, social media, and speaking appearances.
