What if the thing between you and your next quantum leap isn't more effort, but believing you're already worthy of what you want?Jessica sits down with founder, podcaster, and TBMer Ellie to bust the biggest myth about confidence: that you either have it or you don't. Ellie shares how she built hers through finding Expanders, nervous system regulation, and taking aligned action just beyond her comfort zone.You'll also hear how monthly reflection shows you the progress you're actually making, how Ellie held her price while selling her Amsterdam home when every part of her wanted to settle, and why "fractional" Expanders shift your beliefs one piece at a time.If you've been overworking, doubting you're confident enough, or feeling tested right before a breakthrough, this episode is for you. Your next moment of expansion may come from regulation and surrender, not force.Full show notes → https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcastResources:The TBM App Has Upleveled!Our app just got a major upgrade to make your manifestation ritual easier and more personalized.

Avoiding difficult conversations with employees can feel like the kind thing to do, especially when you genuinely care about the people on your team.You tell yourself you'll address it next week. You drop a few hints. Maybe they have a really good day and you start wondering if the problem is fixing itself.But while you're waiting, the cost of that conversation doesn't disappear. It just moves somewhere else.In this episode, I'm sharing the story of a founder who was dealing with employee performance issues involving someone she genuinely valued. She thought she'd been giving feedback, but nothing was changing. Meanwhile, she was carrying the frustration, other team members were picking up the slack, and resentment was starting to build. That's one of the hidden costs of avoiding difficult conversations. What starts as a problem with one person can begin affecting your time, your clients, your strongest employees and the culture you're trying to build.We'll talk about the difference between dropping hints and creating real clarity, why fear of conflict can make holding employees accountable feel so uncomfortable, and a simple way to approach difficult conversations with employees without becoming cold or confrontational.Because leadership skills aren't about never finding these conversations difficult. They're about developing the confidence to have them anyway.If avoiding difficult conversations is keeping you stuck in unresolved people problems, this is exactly the kind of leadership work we do inside the Accelerator for Female Founders. We work on your people strategy and the leadership skills you need to support the next stage of your business.Learn more about the Accelerator and book a call with me here.Support the showThe People Side of Business is the podcast for female founders and business owners who are leading teams and growing businesses.Hosted by Lindsay White, Leadership Coach, Team Leadership Strategist, and Fractional HR Expert, this show delivers practical leadership strategies, real-world people solutions, and honest conversations about the challenges of leading a team.From employee performance issues and difficult conversations to hiring, accountability, workplace culture, and team growth, each episode is designed to help you lead, manage, and scale your team as a founder.If you're ready to become a more confident leader, make better people decisions, and build a stronger, higher-performing team, you're in the right place.Learn more at highvoltageleadership.ca, connect on Instagram @highvoltleadership, or find Lindsay White on LinkedIn.The people side of business isn't separate from growth.

For years, I thought there was something wrong with me because I never quite fit into the room.Then I realized…I didn't need to become less of myself. I needed to build better rooms. So, I did. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the Money Honey Room and why I created an IRL space for women who are ready to make their own money, build businesses their way and stop following someone else's blueprint.We're getting into: Why the Money Honey Room is about way more than networking What actually happens inside the room, the money, mindset, business and visibility shifts women have experiencedWhy belonging can be a business strategy tooWho this room is for… and who should probably stay home How spirituality + strategy get to sit at the same tableWhy I believe women need more spaces where they can be loud, bold, ambitious, woo, unconventional and completely themselvesAnd then we're talking about Money Honey Room 3.0.

From A Dressing Room Breakdown To A 100 Store Retail Brand***Interview was pre-recorded in front of a live audience***A difficult dressing-room experience became the spark for what would eventually grow into Evereve. Megan Tamte, co-founder and co-CEO, joins us to share how feeling unseen in that moment helped shape a bigger vision: creating a place where women—especially moms navigating changing seasons of life—could feel understood, supported, and confident in what they wear.But this conversation has a story of its own. Long before Megan sat down with us, Kelly sent a handwritten note marked with a butterfly stamp—an intentional invitation to a dream guest. What followed is a conversation about trusting the ideas that won't leave you alone, building through motherhood, and having the courage to keep pursuing what feels possible.We dig into the long road between inspiration and execution: the seven-year gap between the idea and opening the first store, the sacrifices that made it possible, and the very real tension of building a business while raising young kids. Megan gets specific about what helped her move forward, including turning off nighttime TV to write the dream, learning to say no without guilt, and partnering with her husband in a way that plays to both of their strengths.You'll also hear behind-the-scenes lessons from scaling retail: the name change from Hot Mama to Evereve, why leaders need to get back on the selling floor, and how customer experience gets rebuilt by listening in the dressing room. Megan shares the HEART core values, her “balcony approach” for handling feedback without letting it become identity, and how faith shapes her leadership, routines, and self-care.If you're a woman entrepreneur, a working mom, or someone “nibbling on the edges” of a big idea, this conversation brings both heart and practical strategy.

Digital Health Talks - Changemakers Focused on Fixing Healthcare
Every health system has AI pilots. Far fewer have systems that scale past them, and the difference is rarely the model. Nicole Sanders and Christine Williams left large enterprise and platform roles to start Foxtrot Services, a firm built to take AI implementations from prototype into production in regulated, high stakes environments. They work across healthcare, manufacturing, financial services, and supply chain, including the implementation work behind Surgence, the ecosystem connecting providers, distributors, and suppliers on shared supply and demand data. In this conversation they get specific about the call every CIO is weighing right now, whether to wait for the EHR vendor to build the capability or to move without them, and what it actually takes to convert saved hours into money. They also go at the part nobody puts in the case study: what compute and licensing cost at scale, why the architecture underneath determines the bill, and how permissions and governance break when a pilot becomes a system.Nicole Sanders, Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Foxtrot ServicesChristine Williams, Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Foxtrot ServicesMegan Antonelli, Chief Executive Officer, HealthIMPACT Live Subscribe to Digital Health Talks on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.Learn more about HealthIMPACT Live events, virtual forums, and healthcare leader conversations at healthimpactlive.com.Interested in being a guest, sponsoring, or joining the HealthIMPACT community?

*This episode is part of a wider partnership with Gatineau Skincare*In this episode I'm chatting to the amazing Heather Berry. Heather is the Sales and Marketing Director of Gatineau Skincare and a woman who I have been getting to know over the last few months. (She's funny, outspoken and authentic...a true Outspoken Beauty!) During the episode Heather tells me the story of Jeanne Gatineau, a woman who was way ahead of her time and founded her business in the 1930's when she was in her mid 40's. Jean was an aesthetician who truly understood skin and her legacy lives on to this day. We go on to explore what makes Gatineau such a special brand .... the science, the independent clinical trials, the feel of the products, the excellent results AND the way it uplifts women. This is a brand that I rate incredibly highly and the more I use it the more I don't want to be without it. We'll talk you through some of their icons and explain why they're so good.Keep listening as you'll also hear from four members of the Outspoken Beauty Trialling Panel. We've had 100 Outspoken Beauties trying the new Multi-Acid Resurfacing Pads and Bec, Zara, Lucy and Lauren will be giving their honest thoughts about them.This is a great episode about one of my favourite skincare brands. I hope you enjoy getting to know them.

Stepping into leadership can feel uncomfortable when you've built a capable team but somehow still find yourself in the middle of every question, decision, problem and approval.That's exactly where one founder found herself. Her business was growing, she trusted her team and she genuinely wanted them to succeed. But as the pace and complexity increased, so did her involvement.She became the person everyone came to for answers.In this episode, I'm sharing what changed when she realized that stepping into leadership didn't mean becoming more available to her team. It meant changing the way she led them.We worked on replacing assumptions with clarity, getting curious about what her team was actually hearing and creating real ownership instead of simply delegating more work. She became clearer about decision making, gave better feedback and created space for other people to lead.And something really interesting happened: as her team became more confident, so did she.I see this transition with so many female business owners. Even experienced female founders can reach a stage where the leadership skills that got them here aren't quite what the next stage of the business needs.Building confidence as a leader isn't about having every answer. Sometimes it comes from seeing what your team is capable of when you stop being their go-to person for everything.That's the real work of stepping into leadership as your business grows. Your role has to evolve alongside the team you're building.If you recognize yourself in this story, the Accelerator for Female Founders was created for this stage of growth. We'll work together on your leadership, your people strategy and the team your business needs for what comes next.Learn more about the Accelerator here.Because stepping into leadership isn't about becoming less important to your business.

Andrea Virgin didn't set out to become a civil engineer or the leader of a major arts nonprofit. But after the 2008 recession hit her dance company, she traded her pointe shoes for a hard hat and built a new career in engineering—only to face devastating loss when her husband TJ died when their daughter was 4 months old. In this episode of She Pivots, Andrea shares how she rebuilt her life (twice), the surprising boardroom idea that grew into her current mission, her role Chair and CEO of The Center for Arts and Innovation in Boca Raton, and why creativity is necessary at all stages of life.

Rebecca Oliver-Mooney joins James Smith for a conversation that starts with a left-handed can and ends up somewhere far more uncomfortable. Founder of the Raising The Glass network and a drinks industry buyer who has sat on the other side of the table from hundreds of challenger brands, Rebecca explains why most founders put half their message where the shelf will hide it, why GLP-1s are about to reshape what food and drink gets made, and why menopause is the category nobody has been willing to build for yet.
I used to say: "I'm never going to dance, move abroad, do sales, build a business or travel." I've done it all. The bigger my goals get the closer I get to feeling like myself and to leading my most ecstatic, creative life. That life lies on the other side of that which you've silenced, sacrificed in order to fit some mold. A mold that blinds you to the opportunities that you actually want to pursue. If you too want to turn your life into a work of art, unleash your potential and feel so excited about what you're doing, this is for you.

At seventeen, Chelsie Hill was a competitive dancer with her sights set on a career as a professional performer, until a car accident with a drunk driver left her paralyzed and changed everything overnight. Her first question to the doctor wasn't about walking again; it was whether she could still dance. On this episode of She Pivots, Chelsie talks about rebuilding her identity after the accident, the moment she decided to stop waiting for permission to chase her dream, and how she turned her own search for community into the Rollettes, a wheelchair dance team that's grown into one of the largest networks for women and girls with disabilities in the world. From performing in Kelly Clarkson's "Invincible" video to dancing at the opening ceremony of the Paris Paralympics, Chelsie shares how dance became the thing that carried her through the injury, marriage, motherhood, and building a space made for women like her from the ground up.

Authenticity FirstSomeone tells you it's impossible, and your whole body wants to prove them wrong. That's the energy Hetal Gatecha brings to this conversation, and it starts long before business. She shares her fertility journey with raw honesty: years of trying, multiple IUI and IVF rounds, doctors telling her she couldn't conceive naturally, and the grief that hits when hope feels expensive. Then comes the twist that still gives me chills, a final stressful month, a moment of prayer, and a natural pregnancy that changes everything. From there, we widen the lens to what it means to rebuild your life as an immigrant in North America. We talk culture shock, visas, the undervalued reality of being a stay-at-home mom, and how the modern lack of “village” support can leave women carrying too much alone. Hetal also explains the role of extended family and multigenerational living, plus how marriage traditions have shifted across generations, both in the United States and in India. On the entrepreneurship side, Hetal takes us behind the scenes of opening a dental practice with her husband, learning marketing and operations from the ground up, and eventually creating a new model: a dental studio and spa that puts patient comfort and genuine care back at the center. We also get practical about dental insurance, including why “out of network” doesn't always mean what people assume, how to understand your benefits, and when paying a little more can buy you time, trust, and a better experience. If you're balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship, building a family business, or trying to figure out whether grit has turned into stubbornness, this one will hit home.

"I really thought I'd healed my relationship to food but and then the breakup dragged me back into toxic numbing cycles I swore I was done with..but I was overwhelmed because I was also trying to grow my business." We unpack why the number one rule of any transition is refusing to judge yourself for relapsing into old coping patterns. We talk about the numbing, toxic coping mechanisms, the imposters, and how to navigate the messiness of it while being a busy business owner.

What if the thing you've been calling resilience is actually the reason you're burning out?Carrying everything yourself can look like commitment, leadership, even strength. But when your business, team, and life depend on you holding every detail, you haven't built resilience; you've built fragility.In this quick-hit episode, Dawn challenges the founder belief that “if I don't hold this, nobody will” and shows why real resilience comes from building people, systems, and support that can carry the load with you. Listen if you're ready to stop being the only load-bearing wall in your business.Want more of Dawn's quick takes, real talk, and behind-the-scenes leadership observations before they become full podcast episodes? Join Dawn's Insider List at DawnAndrews.com for more of the ideas and tools designed to help you lead without carrying everything alone.Key TakeawaysWhy “if I don't do it, nobody will” isn't just a thought, it's a belief that can quietly run your calendar, your team, and your life.How carrying more can masquerade as leadership and responsibility while actually pushing you closer to founder burnout.Why real resilience means creating systems and support that work without you gripping everything with both hands.How documenting what needs to happen gives your team, partner, or support system a real opportunity to take ownership instead of expecting them to absorb your expectations by osmosis.Why asking for help before the crisis is a leadership move, not evidence that you've reached your limit.Resources & LinksDawn's Insider List Resources & Links194 | Stop Saying Yes!

Eight months has passed and MUCH has changed in the best ways possible. Jamie sat down with Karrie to discuss leadership, mentorship and coaching, Jamie's Weightless Woman Movement (Karrie here: from a marketing standpoint, I am pretty obsessed with this name and what it is all about.).

If your AI-generated content sounds polished… but not like you, how much trust are you silently losing every time you hit publish?Let's be honest “good enough” AI content is quietly wrecking your authority. In this episode, Dawn calls out the real issue: it's not the tool, it's the way you're leading it.You'll learn why AI defaults to generic (and why that's dangerous for female founders building credibility), plus the Voice Architecture system, a simple but powerful 3-input framework that transforms your AI output from “meh” to unmistakably you. If you want content that actually converts, connects, and reflects your leadership, this is where to start.Ready to stop sounding like everyone else and actually own your voice in your content?Join the Voice Lab (May 2nd). A live, hands-on session where you'll build your Voice Architecture system in real time (not just talk about it).Key TakeawaysGeneric AI content isn't neutral. It's a credibility leak.If your audience can't feel you, they hesitate. And hesitation kills conversions.AI isn't your assistant. It's a brand new hire.If you don't train it, it defaults to the safest, most forgettable version of your industry.Your bottleneck isn't the tool. It's your transmission.The same reason your team still relies on you? That's why your AI output falls flat.Voice Architecture = your unfair advantage.When you make your voice explicit, AI stops sounding like the internet, and starts sounding like a leader.Specificity creates authority.The more clearly you define your voice, vocabulary, and audience, the more powerful (and aligned) your content becomes.Resources & LinksVoice Lab (Live Experience)Free Resource: “10 Ways AI Will Make You a Better Leader”AI for Founders CommunityRelated Episodes132 | The Solo Trap: Why Your Service Business Is Stuck at $300K (And How AI Gets You Out) 156 | Hiring Is Not Your Solution (And the “Scale Fast” Crowd Won't Like This) 076 | How Smart CEOs Build SOPs Without Boring Themselves (or Their Teams) 129 | I've Watched 300+ Founders Transform.

Her second company shows what scaling a business really looks like when you build it franchise by franchise, growing from a single facial bar in Edina to nearly 80 locations nationwide. On this episode of Dear FoundHer, host Lindsay Pinchuk talks with Michele Henry, founder and CEO of FACE FOUNDRIÉ, about the decisions that got her there.Michele explains how a five minute decision led her to sign a lease for her first facial bar just five minutes after selling her shares in her previous company. She breaks down the real estate approach that drove her expansion, and why she believes your first ten franchisees will define your brand.Michele and Lindsay get into managing rapid growth during COVID, why patience matters more than most founders expect, and the years it took Michele to find the right CFO, bookkeepers, and financial team. She speaks candidly about her goal of reaching 100 locations by the end of the year, and joining what she says is a small percentage of female founders who have reached that milestone.Press play to hear how Michele Henry built two businesses from the ground up and what she wishes she knew about scaling a business the first time around.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Meet Michele Henry, FACE FOUNDRIÉ Founder00:40 From Fashion Boutique to a $25 Million Business02:55 The Five Minute Leap to Face Foundrié05:23 Inside the Face Foundrié Facial Bar Concept07:44 Building Brand Awareness for a New Concept09:54 Real Estate Strategy Behind Rapid Expansion11:06 Deciding to Franchise the Business Model13:14 Pivoting Face Foundrié Through COVID Shutdowns19:32 Scaling a Business Toward 100 Stores23:10 Hurdles Behind the Business Growth Stories25:16 Three Actionable Steps for New Founders26:22 Why Your Numbers Matter More Than IdeasConnect with Michele Henry:Follow Michele on Instagram Get actionable tips to move your business forward sent straight to your inbox every week.

Send us Fan MailMany founders try to build a large audience before asking anyone to pay, but Clara Ma built Ask a Chief of Staff around the opposite premise: prove the value first and let committed customers shape what comes next. She explains how charging from day one, staying bootstrapped, hiring for leverage, and protecting her time helped her build a profitable 500+ member community while keeping the business in service of her life rather than the other way around. SHOW NOTESStrategic FocusAt the center of this conversation is a question every founder eventually faces: are you building a business that depends on more of you, or one that creates enough value and leverage to grow beyond you? Clara's experience shows how pricing, delegation, disciplined hiring, and a clear operating model can shape both profitability and founder freedom.Key Takeaways Why charging for a community from day one can strengthen perceived value, attract more committed members, and create a healthier participation culture. How Clara used recruiting revenue to validate demand, then expanded into a paid community rather than overbuilding the business before customers asked for more. Why hiring an executive assistant in month three created more strategic capacity, and how she now evaluates whether a problem needs automation, a contractor, or a long term team member. What a Chief of Staff actually does, how the role differs from a COO, and why the best hire is often the person who complements the leader rather than simply matches a title. GUEST CONTACT & CONNECTClara Ma is the founder and CEO of Ask a Chief of Staff, a bootstrapped community and recruiting platform serving Chiefs of Staff and the executives who hire them.

Are you the person everyone counts on—the one who can always figure it out, squeeze it in, or take on one more thing?Being capable is a gift, but it can also become a trap.In today's episode, I'm joined by business strategist and executive coach Dawn Andrews, Founder and CEO of Free Range Thinking, to talk about what happens when capable women become responsible for too much—at work, at home, and everywhere in between.Dawn shares why highly capable women are especially vulnerable to burnout, how caring leaders can accidentally take on responsibilities that belong to other people, and why doing more isn't always the best use of your capacity.We also dive into boundaries—and a completely different way to think about them. Instead of waiting until you're exhausted and finally declaring, “I can't do this anymore,” Dawn encourages us to build boundaries around what we value and want to protect.In this episode, we talk about:The “curse of the capable” and why capable women often end up carrying moreWhy doing less can actually make you a better leaderThe difference between supporting someone and taking responsibility for themWhy holding space for someone is different from holding their weightHow over-functioning prevents the people around us from growingWhy boundaries can feel so difficult for dependable, high-achieving womenHow to set boundaries based on your values instead of your exhaustionWhy your capacity should be spent on what you chooseThe power of pausing before automatically saying yesDawn's simple three-question boundary check using energy, resentment, and enthusiasmIf you're tired of automatically asking, “How can I make this work?” every time something lands on your plate, this conversation will help you start asking a much more important question: “Do I actually want to?”Text us your feedback or questions!Stay connected!Join us in The Supermom Society!

Missy Tannen spent five years teaching third grade and a decade as a stay-at-home mom before she ever thought about starting a company. But when she couldn't find bedding that was high-quality, ethically sourced, and traceable, she and her husband Scott started Boll & Branch out of pure frustration. On this episode of She Pivots, Missy talks about betting the family's life savings on an idea, borrowing against their own house even while sales were taking off, and what it took to scale from a garage operation to a 200-person company without losing what made it different in the first place. She's brutally honest about the mess behind the milestones (a full batch of ivory sheets that came out green!) and about running a family business—that’s now worth over $250 million—with her husband while raising their kids.
