Former dental hygienist turned insurance broker, Nylene shares her journey and why flexibility was key for her as a mother of four.
In this episode, we explore the ins and outs of traditional marketplace plans versus alternative options like indemnity plans and health shares. What are the real costs, and how can you save? Nylene breaks it all down, sharing personal stories like her husband's knee surgery that had zero out-of-pocket expenses.

Nylene Ellingson's Bio:
My name is Nylene Ellingson. I got into insurance 9 years ago. I was a dental hygienist at the time. I loved the idea of something more flexible that allowed me to work around my families schedule. I have a husband and 4 children. My husband and I had always been privately insured. I know firsthand how hard it can be to not only know what your options are for healthcare, but to navigate finding what works best for your situation. One of the things I love most about what I do is helping people find what meets their needs and budgets best, and I do not charge the client anything. I get paid by whatever plan they choose.

Declutter to Unleash Your Creativity with Unison Frances
Hey there, fabulous listeners! Have you ever felt like clutter is crushing your creativity or stifling your success? Join us in this transformative episode of Women of Wealth as we chat with the incredible Unison Frances, owner of Go Goddess Organizing. Unison takes us on her journey from 22 years in teaching to becoming a powerhouse in organization. She reveals how clutter can lead to mental chaos and decision fatigue, especially for women juggling multiple roles.
Unison shares her top tips, like using apps such as Paper Karma and Everlance, and her personal "bye-bye box" strategy. She dives into digital decluttering and organizing business spaces, even offering advice on keeping your car—a mobile office for many—tidy and efficient. Plus, you'll hear about her ambitious goal to sell 1,000 planners designed to help women streamline their lives. Don't miss this episode packed with practical advice to boost your productivity and creativity!
Unison Frances Colthurst's Bio:
I’m Unison Frances, a certified professional organizer, decluttering expert, and your go-to guru for What’s Got to Go-Go. You’ve built—or are building—a life of wealth, success, and opportunity. But let’s be real: clutter isn’t just taking up space in your home; it’s taking up mental space, slowing you down, clouding your creativity, and keeping you from operating at your highest level.
Your time is your most valuable asset, and every piece of clutter is a tiny energy leak—distracting you, draining your focus, and keeping you stuck in the past instead of creating your next big win. Whether it’s unopened boxes, overstuffed closets, or digital chaos, I help high-achieving women like you clear the excess so you can think clearer, work smarter, and move faster toward the life you actually want.
Through my signature planner The Year She Let It Go, my membership community, and my high-energy virtual happy hours, I guide women through a transformational process of decluttering—not just their spaces, but their minds and energy too. Because wealth isn’t just about money; it’s about freedom. And nothing steals your freedom like a home (or a mind) full of unfinished business.
You weren’t meant to waste time searching for your keys, feeling guilty about the things you “should” deal with, or drowning in a space that doesn’t support your next level. You’re here to create, lead, innovate, and make an impact. Let’s clear the clutter, reclaim your energy, and open up space for more of what truly moves the needle in your life.
Success loves clarity—so let’s make room for more of that.
