She's the founder of The Other's Day Brunch and host of The “So Now What?” Podcast, both created to support women who are childless not by choice.

When her clinic offered no resources to help her navigate life without children, she created the support she needed and now offers it to others. Through her coaching and bestselling book So Now What?, Lana helps women reconnect with their bodies, build meaningful relationships with partners and friends, and create a life that feels purposeful and fulfilling—even without motherhood. She holds advanced certification in grief and post-traumatic growth, is a member of ASRM, and volunteers with RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association.

She lives in downtown Chicago with her husband and their dog, Coco.   In this episode, Virginia and Lana talked about: Why Lana started this business How Lana transitioned from corporate sales to entrepreneur Three Pillars of Thriving as a woman who has gone through infertility  Finding your first clients   Takeaway: Plan for your passion  Who is your best source for referrals?

This week's guest is the incomparable Hughie Batherson—a man who doesn't just talk about what matters to him, he acts on it. From learning French as an adult to becoming a bilingual performer, Hughie embodies dedication, curiosity, and courage. His first-ever attempt at standup comedy? He won a Juste pour rire (Just for Laughs) competition. Since then, he's become a sought-after comic and motivational speaker across the country.   Hughie shares how he doesn't consider himself funny in his day-to-day life, but brings infectious energy to the stage—where humour becomes his tool for connection, education, and impact. A former teacher and professor with a Master's in Education focused on the role of humour in learning, Hughie brings both heart and hilarity to every audience he meets.   We chat about language, taking creative risks, and the power of storytelling—and we were surprised and thrilled when he gifted us a signed Drake Batherson jersey (his NHL-star nephew!). We also chat about his Cape Breton roots, his recent performance at Togetherland Art Gallery's Open Mic night and how we all know we'll be friends well beyond the show!   Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mikeandkristen   Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mikeandkristen   Us on the web: www.mikeandkristen.ca Instagram: www.instagram.com/mike_and_kristen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mikeandkristencreative Shoot us a message!

Send us a textWhat happens when the success stories you're told don't match your reality? For Raul Lopez, this disconnect became the catalyst for creating something new. Growing up undocumented with a truck driver father who pushed college as the only path forward, Raul found himself disillusioned when mainstream success narratives felt unrelatable to his experience.During our candid conversation, Raul shares how listening to the story of Nike's founder—who received startup funds and connections from his father—highlighted the privilege gap in popular success stories. This realization sparked his podcast "How Do You Say Success in Spanglish," where he interviews people of color about their unique journeys to various forms of achievement.Whether you're feeling stuck in your career, contemplating a risky professional move, or seeking success stories that reflect your own background, Raul's journey offers practical wisdom for navigating change and building momentum toward your goals.

In this episode, Joe interviews Melanie Curtis: world record professional skydiver, keynote speaker, coach, co-host of the Trust the Journey podcast, and author of How to Fly: Life Lessons From a Professional Skydiver. Curtis shares her journey from taking her first transformative leap out of an airplane to becoming a leader in skydiving, public speaking, and now, the integration of psychedelics into personal growth. She discusses the parallels between skydiving and working with psychedelics – most notably in the idea of leaping into the unknown, trusting the universe, and in the potential that can be unlocked after you've come back down to earth. While relatively new to the psychedelic space, she stresses the importance of sharing your story and opening up dialogues, no matter how small you think your voice may be. She talks about: Her early psilocybin journeys and recent ayahuasca experiences How she came out of the psychedelic closet to her Mother, and learning of the power of small steps and trusting the universe Realizing how her Father's behavior affected her, and how it has made her more connected to her femininity and other women The power of confidence and how much better we'd all be if the fear of humiliation wasn't so prominent in our lives and more!
