Life's transitions demand courage, but bravery looks different for everyone. In this powerful episode of The Space In-Between, Dinine sits down with three remarkable women to introduce the B³ Lab—an experience built around three transformative principles: Be Brave, Be Bold, and Believe.Leslie Thompson, financial planner with Focus Partners, shares her three-decade journey navigating a patriarchal industry while helping women find financial confidence through major life transitions. Leah GiaQuinta, divorce transition coach, returns to discuss how letting go isn't about forcing release but about reaching for something better. And April Morgan, functional medicine pharmacist, brings her expertise on empowering people to take ownership of their health beyond the conventional 15-minute doctor visit.Together, they explore how the Enneagram can help personalize your path to growth—whether you're a Type 2 helper learning to set boundaries, a Type 7 enthusiast sitting with discomfort, or a Type 1 perfectionist learning to let go. From recognizing when external noise drowns out your inner compass to understanding that your voice matters even when it shakes, this conversation offers practical wisdom for anyone standing at the edge of something new.The B³ Lab isn't just an event—it's an invitation to stop playing small and show up fully as your authentic, courageous self. Whether you're navigating divorce, career transition, health challenges, or simply seeking community during an in-between season, this episode reminds us that bravery isn't about being fearless. It's about choosing not to shrink even when it would be easier to stay small.Key Takeaways:Bravery looks different for each Enneagram type—from setting boundaries to sitting still with discomfort to letting go of perfectionismFinancial empowerment begins with understanding your spending patterns and believing you deserve a voice in wealth management conversationsTrue healing requires personalized care that honors the art of medicine alongside the scienceLetting go is like releasing a muscle contracture—the more you focus on what you're losing, the tighter you grip; focus instead on what you're reaching forWhen you feel stuck, remember the last problem you successfully navigated and draw on that same internal strengthYour voice matters even if it shakes—surround yourself with advocates until your internal strength catches upResources: Dinine's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dinine-sig-917784252/ Dinine's website: dininesig.comDinine's Instagram: @dininesigDinine's TikTok: @dinine.sigLeslie's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leslie-d-thompson-cfa®-cpa-cdfa™-020b78b9/Leslie's Website: https://www.focuspartners.com/ Leah's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leahgiaquinta/Leah GiaQuinta Coaching: https://leahgiaquintacoaching.com/Leah's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leahgiaquintacoaching/Leah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leahgiaquintacoaching/April's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/april-morgan-functionalpharmacist/ April's Website: http://www.functionalpharmacist.life/ Lindsay's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lindsay-zehren-mt-bc-32812822b/ Lindsay's Website: http://copperzwellness.com/ B3 Labs Keynote Speaker Rachel Pritz' LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rachelpritz/ Rachel Pritz' Website: https://elevategrowthcoaching.com/

But this episode isn't just about business growth. It's about personal growth.Joel gets real about the shadows behind success—depression, marriage struggles, and what happens when achievement isn't enough—and how a single psychedelic journey cracked him wide open. We go there: the messy middle of building a company, the healing work that saved his marriage, and why true leadership always starts within.We talk about:⚡ How he built a multimillion-dollar company while still in college⚡ Why employee-first culture is his secret weapon⚡ The spiritual awakening that changed his life—and his marriage⚡ The role psychedelics can play in healing trauma and addiction⚡ Why “marriage coaching” might just be your next power moveThis one's deep, funny, and brutally honest—the kind of conversation that reminds you success means nothing if you don't know yourself.

Send us a textBefore you can build a business, you've got to build belief.This week I'm pulling back the curtain on a very special B Lab client of mine—Megan Goodman. Megan came in with a head full of ideas, a ton of passion, and (like so many of us) a little voice in her head that kept saying who am I to do this?In this episode, we talk about what it really looks like to start from scratch—without a clear roadmap. From vision boards to brand kits, from big dreams to tiny first steps, Megan and I dig into how you move past self-doubt and start building something that feels authentic to you.✨ What we cover in this episode:Why belief in yourself always comes before the business planHow to find your “first pin on the map” when you want to do all the thingsWhy changing your mind (again and again) is part of the creative processWhat happens when you give yourself permission to start small—and grow from thereMegan's story is proof that you don't have to have it all figured out to take action. You just have to start.

Send us a textAmy Nelson is back! Every time we sit down, I walk away fired up and inspired to do more, be more, and lead with more clarity. This time we dove into women in leadership and how damn hard it can be to walk the line between being “too soft” or “too much.”We get into:⚡ Leading with authenticity⚡ Why being “bossy” is actually a compliment⚡ Why asking for forgiveness beats waiting for permissionWe also cracked open something really close to my heart right now: The B Lab. It's the engine I've been quietly building to help entrepreneurs cut through the noise, get clear on what they really want, and actually start moving. Talking it through with Amy reminded me exactly why I started—because waiting for permission is a waste of your damn time.Amy, thank you for always bringing your wisdom, your honesty, and your fire to this show. Every conversation with you leaves me better—and I know you'll feel the same.Got questions for Amy? DM the show on Instagram or email us at info@thekericroftshow.com.

What does it mean to build a truly fair workplace—and how do the new B Corp standards define it? In this episode, we're joined by Bernard Gouw, Senior Manager of Social Standards at B Lab, to explore the Fair Work topic. Bernard unpacks how the new requirements balance ambition with flexibility, from family living wages and collective bargaining to pay transparency and stakeholder engagement. He also reflects on the hard tradeoffs, why some outcomes are prioritized over others, and what he believes is the single most powerful lever for change.View the show notes: https://go.lifteconomy.com/blog/new-standards-unpacking-fair-work-w-bernard-gouwSupport the showWe want to hear from you!
