Who decided being single has to be a pit stop on the way to something better? In this episode, we're showing you how to make your single era the main event. Think solo date nights, orgasms (duh), reframing everything you thought you knew about singlehood, and building a life so good it turns heads. Being single isn't a gap, it's the glow-up. What We Cover in This Episode: Why singlehood isn't a “pause” in your life, it's the glow-up. We reframe being single as an expansive, intentional chapter, not something you're just surviving until your next relationship. How to build a life that turns you on. From friends to creativity to pleasure, we dive into what it means to design a life that lights you up from the inside out. The real reason timelines make you feel behind (and how to break free). We unpack the fear-based messaging around age, marriage, and milestones and how to stop letting them run your love life. How to date yourself with the same energy you'd give a partner. We walk through what it actually looks like to show up for yourself emotionally, romantically, and sexually. Tips for creating the perfect solo date night (that ends with pleasure, not loneliness). We share our go-to structure for solo dates—including a downloadable guide you can find HERE—to help you feel connected, sexy, and satisfied. Why redefining intimacy is key to thriving in your single era. We explore how to create intimacy through friendships, rituals, and self-connection no partner required.

Why does getting support for your child feel like a full-time job… with no sick leave?

Hey, friends in this episode, I'm breaking down what it really looks like to operate from an abundance mindset as a fundraiser or nonprofit leader. If you're tired of feeling pressure to chase every donor, scared to hear “no,” or stuck in scarcity, this is for you. I'm sharing real stories and practical signs that show when you're leading from a place of trust, service, and confidence, not desperation.Let's talk about donor referrals, releasing misaligned people, and making bold asks with zero attachment. Abundance isn't just a nice idea — it's a powerful shift in how you show up and invite generosity.What We Cover in This Episode:How to know when you're in an abundance mindset (and what it actually looks like in real life)Why I refer donors to other nonprofits and how that move came back around years laterThe power of low-pressure, service-based leadership in major donor relationshipsLetting go of board members, donors, and prospects who aren't alignedWhy cycling through unresponsive prospects is necessary for growthThe mindset shift behind bold, audacious asks and how I went from $5K/month to a $300K giftHow to stop budgeting donors' philanthropy for themOwning your mistakes and asking for donor feedback with confidenceHere's what I want you to take away: there is plenty. There are plenty of donors, plenty of money, plenty of opportunities. The more we let go of clinging and chasing, the more we make room for aligned, meaningful generosity to flow in.Being in an abundance mindset doesn't mean you don't want results — it means you trust that the right people, the right gifts, and the right timing will come when you lead with service, clarity, and courage.Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?

Vanessa is a fierce advocate for gender equality and social justice, recently representing the APAC region at the 2025 World Woman Foundation in Davos, and recipient of the Momentum Trailblazer of the Year Award.

If you care about culture, integrity, and psychological safety in the workplace—you need to hear this.

In this epic episode, I'm joined by my good friend and tech mastermind Tim Laycock—a creative force who has spent the last decade building and scaling digital platforms used by millions of people globally. From launching startups to leading product development for major companies, Tim's work in tech is all about creating meaningful, user-focused experiences that solve real problems.These days, he's still deep in the world of tech startups, while also pouring his energy into a new passion project—Parea—a bold initiative that blends adventure, challenge, and deep human connection in the great outdoors.We dive deep into Tim's story—his upbringing, his entrepreneurial mindset, and where he sees the future of technology heading. But the real adventure begins when we talk about Parea, which is designed to take high-performing individuals out of their comfort zones and into nature for transformative experiences.Earlier this year, I joined Tim and a group of six founders on the third Parea expedition in the backcountry of New Zealand.

It was raw, challenging, deeply human—and it's the heartbeat of what Parea is all about: pushing yourself mentally, physically, and emotionally, while building genuine connection through shared struggle in nature.What We Cover in This Episode:✅ Tim's journey building platforms used by millions ✅ What he's learned from a decade in the tech world ✅ Balancing tech startup life with launching Parea ✅ Behind the scenes of our survival trip in NZ ✅ Why nature, discomfort, and camaraderie are essential for growthWatch the award winning documentary here - https://youtu.be/6us_K-MRvIcLearn more about PAREA - www.joinparea.com/applyPAREA INSTAGRAM - www.instagram.com/joinparea/Follow Tim - www.instagram.com/timothyxjamesTodays episode is brought to you by Ampd Bros E-Bikes!

In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Heather Beam, founder of Practical Education Network (PEN), a nonprofit that's transforming the way science and math are taught in Africa. Heather shares the story of how building a wind turbine with students in Ghana sparked her mission to make hands-on, project-based learning the new normal across the continent. We talk about her big vision, the current impact of PEN, and the realities of fundraising for such an ambitious goal. If you're passionate about education, innovation, or nonprofit leadership, this conversation will inspire you.What We Cover in This Episode:Heather's Origin Story: How her experience in mechanical engineering—and a life-changing classroom project—led to starting PEN in Ghana.The Big Vision for PEN: Why Heather wants to make hands-on STEM education the norm across all of Africa, and what that really means in terms of scale and impact.Current Impact & Reach: Over 9,000 teachers trained since 2016, with programs expanding from Ghana to Rwanda and Liberia.The Challenge of Fundraising: How PEN funds its work through a mix of individual donors, foundations, corporate partnerships, and NGOs—and why individual giving is a key focus area for growth.The Power of Donor Relationships: We dive into why Heather's most loyal donors give, how the 80/20 principle applies to fundraising, and how to personalize asks to inspire bigger gifts.Heather's Next-Level Goals: Her plan to double individual giving and create sustainable funding that covers PEN's operational needs.I loved Heather's passion for problem-solving and her belief that every student should leave school with the skills to tackle real-world challenges. Her story of building a wind turbine from a plastic bucket and scrap computer parts was such a powerful example of what's possible with creativity and resourcefulness. And as a fundraiser myself, our discussion about donor motivation and making personalized asks really hit home.Heather's mission is bold, but so necessary.
