In this episode of the Self-Employed Life, I had the great privilege of speaking with Nesha Pai, author of the book “Overcoming Ordinary Obstacles”. Nesha shared how she transitioned from running a fully remote accounting firm to empowering others to pursue their boldest dreams.  She further explains how personal tragedies deepened her mission. We explored the difference between courage and bravery, the “Four C's” framework she uses to guide dreamers into bold action, and how cultivating personal style and daily confidence practices can help us show up as the person we're becoming. Nesha's story is a great reminder that taking courageous, intentional steps—especially through life's hardest seasons—can lead to extraordinary transformation. Nesha Pai is the founder of Pai CPA, PLLC, a fully remote bookkeeping firm in Charlotte, NC.   She started her firm in February 2011,  and was one of the first in the industry to create a fully remote office model, along with giving employment opportunities to primarily to stay-at-home moms. As a single mom, sole owner, she grew from one client on her kitchen table to over 72 with revenues in the multiple six digits. In January 2020 , Nesha published her book “Overcoming Ordinary Obstacles”, which won the award in the Multicultural Non-Fiction category by the 2020 competition of the American Book Fest.  She is currently known as an international speaker, activating women and entrepreneurs to go boldly into the life of their dreams by cultivating the right tools to overcome the obstacles in their way. Nesha is a recent breast cancer survivor and was named one of the Top 50 Infulential Women in The Mecklenburg Times (2020 and 2024), on of Charlotte's biggest media publications.

Health and wellness has been all the talk for decades now, and Adrienne Youdim, MD triple board certified physician, author, and Tedx Speaker, breaks down what people are hungry for, and how to achieve better balance in our daily lives. Often, it's about simplicity. Adrienne wrote, “Hungry for More,” which explores what's really eating at us, why we develop unhealthy habits, and how to break the cycle. She asks, “What are you hungry for? Love? Connection? Belonging?” We'll talk about that, but also the mental drain so many are feeling now, whether it's from world events, too much social media where we mindlessly scroll for hours, or for those of us in LA, the aftereffects from the fires here and the mental toll it's taken on our health. I often wonder if we've lost our way, and what's a simple and organic way to get back into balance. We'll talk about that, too. Please join my conversion with Adrienne Youdim, MD, on all video and audio platforms of #DeborahKobyltLIVE, and invite your friends. I'm your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it's my pleasure to welcome you here.

In this episode of the LoCo Experience, I welcomed accomplished author, speaker, and teacher Gregg Vanourek into the studio.  We discuss his recent book 'Triple Crown Leadership,' which he co-wrote with his father. The book uses the metaphor of the Triple Crown in horse racing to describe the triple crown of leadership: excellence, ethics, and endurance.  We discussed the extensive research and interviews involved in developing their book and leadership model - which aims to help leaders achieve exceptional results with integrity and sustainability.Gregg shares insights into his diverse professional journey, including his experience with think tanks and founding a startup foundation focused on education reform, which ultimately led him to move their family to Sweden.  There, he taught entrepreneurship and leadership at the Royal Institute of Technology - Sweden's equivalent to MIT.   The conversation delves into the significance of understanding oneself and discovering one's passions and strengths, especially for young adults. Greg offers advice on trusting oneself, paying attention to one's interests, and taking action to experiment and learn. He underscores the value of being in community with others to gain insights and support in navigating life's transitions.  Gregg also reflects on his family life, including the challenges and rewards of moving from Sweden back to the U.S. with his wife and daughters. He highlights the importance of finding balance and joy in both professional and personal endeavors.The episode concludes with a light-hearted discussion about memorable life moments, such as Gregg's adventurous trip to the Netherlands without a passport, and the role of music in his life.   He'll be our keynote speaker and workshop leader at the LoCo member event this fall - Aim to Thrive - and I know you'll enjoy getting to know my new friend, Gregg Vanourek.The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

Annette shared how intentional sabbaticals can be powerful tools for self-employed individuals to regain clarity, spark creativity, and build sustainable success. We discussed the difference between a vacation and a sabbatical, how to structure one even while running a business, and the importance of designing time away with intention. Annette also introduced her framework of Compass, Maps, and Constellations to help people align with their values, plan with vision, and lean into the support systems around them. Annette uses her background in corporate innovation and personal experience with burnout in order to encourage others to rethink how we work and to embrace sabbaticals as a meaningful part of a resilient and fulfilling self-employed life.

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the true pleasure of speaking with Sara Connell, bestselling author, TEDx speaker, coach, and Founder of Thought Leader Academy, about the transformative journey from corporate leader to thought leader. Sara's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and the power of claiming your voice — and using it to create meaningful, lasting impact.Sara's career began in the corporate world at a top advertising agency, where she quickly realized that while the training was invaluable, the culture was toxic. It took a mental and physical health crisis for Sara to finally make the leap out of corporate life — a leap inspired by a chance encounter with a life-changing book she discovered in an airport bookstore. That single book inspired her to commit to writing the stories and messages she wished had existed for her, and ultimately to empower other leaders to do the same.Throughout our conversation, Sara spoke candidly about the mindset shifts required to leave a traditional corporate path and build a thriving thought leadership business. She emphasized the importance of creating a clear “flag in the ground” — your core message or movement — and then choosing one meaningful platform to start sharing it, whether that's a book, a talk, or a podcast.Sara also shared her wisdom on managing imposter syndrome, embracing discomfort, and remembering that legacy-level impact rarely comes from comfort zones.Key takeaways from the interview:0:01:10 – Sara's career pivot from corporate advertising was born out of both desperation and inspiration, sparked by a book she discovered during a personal crisis.0:03:52 – The toxic myth that “if you leave, you'll fail” keeps many leaders stuck — Sara debunks this through her own story.0:06:24 – Mindset is 100% of the game; it either keeps you in the game or takes you out.0:08:16 – Every thought leader faces self-doubt and imposter syndrome — even icons like Maya Angelou and Elizabeth Gilbert.0:10:44 – Act “as if” when your confidence wavers. Pretend to believe in yourself until your actions prove you right.0:12:14 – Start by identifying your “flag in the ground” — your signature message, idea, or movement you want to be known for.0:14:57 – Choose one thought leadership platform to begin with — speaking, writing, podcasting — based on what lights you up.0:18:26 – Find the intersection of your corporate expertise, your untapped passions, and the audience you most want to serve.0:20:33 – Great marketing starts with listening; have real conversations with your ideal audience to learn what they need.0:23:45 – Often our greatest superpowers feel invisible to us — fresh eyes and mentors can help uncover your unique brilliance.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Cheering you on always!– Sheryl

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the great pleasure of speaking with Rob Hunter about the art of effective communication. Rob shares his insights on why communication is a critical — yet often overlooked — skill in many businesses today. He offers practical tips and strategies to help business owners strengthen their communication and better connect with their teams and clients. Rob emphasizes that with so many distractions competing for a person's attention, the ability to communicate clearly, concisely, and effectively has never been more important. We further discuss five important steps that anyone can take to become a more powerful communicator. This episode is for anyone who wants to strengthen their professional relationships and create a bigger impact through the power of clear and effective communication. Rob Hunter loves words. Not just any words, though…ones that create connection and meaningful, lasting impact. Over his 25+ yr. career as a radio broadcaster, he's learned that communication is the most important – yet underrated – skill. When you communicate effectively, you will master your message and influence & inspire others.

What happens when a single moment changes the direction of your entire life? Can regret become a force for good?  In this episode, we'll hear one man's journey through the aftermath of accidentally causing his high school sweetheart's death in a car accident at 18 years old and how that trauma has shaped his entire life. Dr. Aimie is joined by Gregg Ward who shares how this terrible accident caused his greatest pain while also pushing him to become a better person. He describes how the trauma showed up in his body, his methods for trying to cope, and the path that eventually led him toward healing and purpose. This conversation goes deeper into how trauma lives in the body, how moral injury can affect someone, and how finding purpose can eventually transform regret and grief into meaning, purpose and joy. We'll discuss: What happens to the body right after trauma occurs What moral injury is and its role in trauma    How trauma can disrupt your life but also give it new direction Finding purpose by honoring what was lost instead of just trying to feel better How trauma stays in your body for years Connecting with others who have experienced similar traumatic events Why physical movement helps heal trauma when talking about it isn't enough How finding happiness after trauma is possible – even when you think it's hopeless And more! Whether you're living with regret, supporting someone through their grief, or working professionally with those carrying hidden pain, this episode shows you how one can move through seemingly unbearable experiences and eventually find peace, joy and purpose on the other side.   Gregg Ward is the founder of the Center for Respectful Leadership, an award-winning best-selling author, TEDx Speaker, executive coach, and master facilitator & culture change consultant.

You've just birthed a whole human—so why are we so quick to rush mothers out the door, slap on a nappy, and tell them to “get on with it”? In today's honest, soul-stirring chat, I'm joined by TEDx speaker and postpartum advocate Sonal Patal to unpack the reality of the fourth trimester—a crucial stage of motherhood that most people still aren't talking about.We explore what the fourth trimester really means—not just in terms of hormones and healing, but in the radical rest, nourishment, and village every new mother deserves.From why you shouldn't feel guilty about spending money on yourself, to how our current systems are failing women, this episode is a must-listen for any mother, birthworker, or ally who knows there has to be a better way.In this episode, we cover:⭐ What the fourth trimester actually is—and why it's not just fluff ⭐ The emotional, physical, and societal pressures new mums face ⭐ Why investing in support (not stuff) is a revolutionary act ⭐ The value of rest—and how to unapologetically claim it ⭐ Sonal's mission to create a preventative care movement, not more bandaid solutionsThis episode is your permission slip to slow down, opt out of the productivity trap, and tune into what your body, your baby, and your spirit really need.Rest isn't lazy. Support isn't a luxury. This is the new postpartum revolution—are you ready to be part of it?

One of my goals is to help you develop an Alchemist Mindset. Differing from the concepts of a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. This is to have a willingness to learn from things that have nothing to do with what you do, but turning it into something valuable for yourself. Doing business with you must feel like a luxury - customers will accept no less. My new book, Sell to the Rich: The Insiders Handbook to Selling Luxury, offers the inside secrets of how luxury buyers think and behave, enabling you to connect with those clients and earn their trust at a higher level. You must elevate yourself and the standards of your business in order to make the experience for every customer a luxury.This is more than a business book, it's your call to greatness. The Self Employed Life podcast will be coming to an end with episode 1000, celebrating more than 11 years. Just as with my photography business, I didn't make this decision because I felt bored or out of opportunity. I made the decision because I felt complete. I will be starting a new podcast called Selling Luxury with Jeffrey Shaw. When I started The Self Employed Life podcast, it was originally called Creative Warriors in August, 2014, but it quickly morphed and I rebranded it as The Self Employed Life to retain all the listeners. This new podcast will be a hard stop and start from ground zero because I want listeners to step up to whether or not this is the content they want.

Rhonda Britten -- Emmy Award-winner, 4x Bestselling author, Repeat Oprah guest, Tedx Speaker, Huffington Post Contributor, and Master Coach – has devoted her life to one thing: teaching people how to master fear. She has created a method for anyone to overcome the insidious fear of “not being good enough” using the “Wheel Technology” she developed to save her own life.What she teaches is what she has lived.The episode presents an in-depth exploration of the multifaceted relationship between fear, teaching, and learning. Rhonda Britten introduces her innovative methodologies, including the 'Wheel of Fear' and the 'Wheel of Freedom', which serve as frameworks for understanding the psychological barriers that hinder student participation and engagement. She posits that fear is not merely a personal flaw but a universal experience that shapes behavior and learning in profound ways. Rhonda reflections on her own educational journey reveal the detrimental effects of fear on student participation, highlighting the need for educators to adopt a more empathetic approach. Significant transformation in education requires educators to first address their own fears and emotional needs. By prioritizing self-care, teachers can cultivate an environment conducive to authentic learning and emotional safety, allowing students to express themselves freely. This conversation is a call to action for educators to engage in self-reflection and to foster a fearless culture in their classrooms, ultimately leading to a more enriching educational experience for all.Takeaways: The Wheel of Fear and Wheel of Freedom offer frameworks to understand personal fear dynamics. Identifying one's core fear can significantly shift perspectives and enhance personal growth. Authenticity in education requires teachers to understand their own needs and emotions. Students often conceal their fears, which can hinder their learning and engagement in the classroom. Teachers must prioritize self-care to effectively support their students' emotional and educational needs. Creating a supportive classroom environment necessitates a focus on students' individual experiences and needs.

There's this deep connection between how we feel, what we think, and what our bodies go through—especially during big transitions like menopause. I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Yasmine Saad, an award-winning NYC Psychologist and TEDx Speaker, who's doing some seriously powerful work helping people understand their emotions in a whole new way. She talked about how our feelings—like sadness, anger, even loneliness—don't just pass through quietly; they show up in our bodies. And when we start to really listen to those messages, that's when the real healing begins. Dr. Yasmine shared her own personal journey and how she blends traditional Chinese medicine with modern psychology in the most grounded, eye-opening way. We got into what loneliness actually means (hint: it's not about being alone) and how connecting with your purpose can change everything. We also touched on menopause—not just the symptoms, but how it can be a time to reconnect with yourself and feel more powerful than ever. If you've been carrying emotions in your body and not quite sure how to unpack them, you're going to love this one. Tune in and I think you'll come away with some beautiful aha moments—and maybe a few deep sighs of relief. We even talked about how to stay centered and hopeful when the world feels heavy, which feels especially important right now. And if menopause has you feeling off or just plain over it, don't miss my Magic Menopause program—it's a space to get grounded, feel better in your body, and actually understand what your hormones are trying to tell you. You can check it out at dranna.com—I'd love to have you there.   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction. [00:05:33] Embarking on a mission to empower people to heal.

Dr. Dan speaks to Allison Carmen, a Maria Shriver "Architect of Change," Uncertainty Expert, and creator of The Maybe Mindset — a concept that is in Oprah's New Dictionary of Enlightenment. Allison teaches us how embracing uncertainty can be our greatest ally. By living in Maybe, we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities. This powerful mindset helps us break free from the stress of needing to know what's next and invites us to believe in the potential of the unknown. In this episode, Dr. Dan and Allison dive into The Maybe Mindset and explore how it can transform our lives. They discuss how uncertainty, when welcomed, leads to less fear and more joy. Instead of chasing certainty, we can choose to live in the freedom of "Maybe" — creating room for growth, happiness, and success. Listeners will discover how Maybe can change everything – because Maybe the best is yet to come! Allison Carmen is a TEDx Speaker, host of the 10 Minutes to Less Suffering podcast, and author of The Gift of Maybe: Offering Hope and Possibility in Uncertain Times and other books. She is also the CFO/General Counsel/Chief Business Operator of The Motherhood Center of New York and a business consultant and coach.

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the pleasure of speaking with Gayle Friend, founder of Unrestricted Intimacy, about the power of creating deep, meaningful relationships in business. Gayle redefines intimacy as more than just a romantic concept—it's about forming deep, authentic connections with clients through shared experiences, vulnerability, and presence. We explored the often-overlooked aspects of intimacy, including the importance of recognizing what we have in common and showing up as our full selves. This episode is for anyone who wants to build stronger, next-level relationships with their clients. Dr. Gayle Friend's expertise is helping people stand in their power and gain the confidence to freely be their true selves and create deeply meaningful relationships. Once on the brink of a second divorce, Gayle developed a transformational process that turned her and her love life completely around. She knows what it takes to create a happy relationship and is highly successful in helping her clients replicate this in their own lives. Her wisdom shines in her keynotes, writing, and her work with clients.

"What motivates us most is the desire to become bolder versions of ourselves." This is a quote from my first book, LINGO, and I believe that to be true. With all the goals we might have, and all the rewards we can pursue, I do believe that continuing to find a bolder version of ourselves is at the heart of our motivation. In the episodes I share a few thoughts on being bold and a wonderful story from my new book, Sell to the Rich, that truly expresses boldness.
