In this heartfelt episode of Paige's Pod, Paige sits down with Laurie Roberts, founder of Larry Roberts Chicago, to talk about love, loss, creativity, and what it means to carry someone's legacy forward through art. Laurie shares the cinematic “meet cute” of how she met her late husband, Larry Roberts - an artist who created from deep emotion, using painting as therapy and self-expression. We talk about the vulnerable (and very real) difficulty of selling work that feels like a piece of your soul, and how Laurie supported Larry through the behind-the-scenes business side while he stayed rooted in the creative process. Laurie opens up about Larry's acute myeloid leukemia (AML) diagnosis in 2017, his final series of paintings, and the early days of grief - when everything went off the market and she didn't yet know what came next. That “next” became a powerful new chapter: transforming Larry's artwork into heirloom-quality, hand-knotted rugs, textiles, and home pieces - crafted with artisans in India and built to last for generations.Together, Paige and Laurie talk about:The beauty (and challenge) of being a multi-passionate creativeWhy art and color can shift mood, support healing, and bring joy to everyday spacesTaking risks in business, pivoting when needed, and the truth about “overnight success”How creativity can support people through hard seasons - especially illness, caregiving, and griefLaurie's advice for anyone wanting to honor a loved one's artistic legacy in a meaningful wayThis conversation is tender, inspiring, and full of permission to keep creating - even when life breaks your heart.

Running The Relay Of Women's LeadershipA single moment can change the trajectory of a life. For Kelli Williams, it was being told to quiet down while advocating for her team—and choosing instead to walk out and walk toward her purpose. What unfolds from there is an unflinching, hope-filled story of teen motherhood, corporate firsts, a public breaking point, and the quiet rebuilding that led to a mission-driven consultancy, executive coaching, and a voice that refuses to shrink.We start with momentum—celebrating WomenVenture and the idea of leadership as a relay where each generation runs its leg. From there, Kelli opens the door on what it meant to be the first woman and first Black strategic leader in a family-owned manufacturer, the subtle pressure to assimilate, and the moment she decided her daughter's future mattered more than any title. She lays out how entrepreneurship began with no safety net, then found form through fractional strategy for mission-driven organizations, clear boundaries that protect deep work, and storytelling that gives others permission to speak the hard truths.The conversation goes deeper. Kelli shares a rock-bottom chapter: placing her newborn son for adoption at 16, finding her voice within the legal window, and the layered grace of bringing him home—joy, harm, and healing. Faith and community are constant threads, from Catholic Charities to mentoring teen moms to navigating seasons of parenting with intention. Her wildflowers metaphor reframes both kids and leaders: growth depends on the right soil, light, and care. Practical guidance follows for anyone considering entrepreneurship—pilot your idea, watch your energy, honor timing, and remember that a no today isn't a no forever.Kelli is now building Legacy Rising, coaching women and allies, speaking on finding joy through life's journeys, and writing Dear Daughter, a love letter to the next generation of women in business. If this story moved you, share it with someone who needs courage to take their next step, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find us.

In the season of giving, Datshiane Navanayagam talks to philanthropists from France and Nigeria about using their wealth to help others thrive. Historically philanthropic giving has been dominated by men, but as women's global wealth grows so does their capacity for donating money to charitable causes and enterprise. The Conversation talks to a French heiress who felt compelled to give away her money following the death of her son in a helicopter crash and a former corporate banker from Nigeria who's galvanising businesswomen from the African diaspora to invest in the futures of women on the continent.Albina du Boisrouvay was born into extreme wealth as granddaughter of a Bolivian tin magnate and daughter of a French aristocrat. She went on to pursue an alternative career as a film director and when her 24 year old son François-Xavier Bagnoud died, Albina sold three-quarters of her assets and founded FXB Foundation in his name. Its mission is to fight poverty, AIDs and support orphans and vulnerable children. Since 1989, FXB Foundation has impacted the lives of 20 million people. She's recently written about her extraordinary life in a book called Phoenix Rising.Former corporate banker, Dr Anino Emuwa is from Nigeria and managing director at Avandis Consulting in France. She co-founded Women in Philanthropy and Impact Africa, bringing together women in business from the African diaspora to use the power of philanthropy to drive sustainable development. With only 0.4% of foundation grants globally directed toward organisations addressing women's issues, WIPIA approaches philanthropy through a gendered lens and supports women to lead scalable change in Africa.Produced by Jane Thurlow(Image: (L) Albina du Boisrouvay credit Karine Bauzin.

What really happens after you sell your studio? In this candid episode of Female emPOWERed, I share the truth about the first 8 months post-exit from Pilates in the Grove—everything from the unexpected identity shift and grief, to the freedom, pride, and the systems that made a sellable, scalable business possible.If you're a Pilates, PT, yoga, or boutique fitness owner who wants to stop being the overworked operator and start leading from the front, this one's for you. I break down the mindset, structure, and systems that let your business run without you, plus what I'm building next with Fit Biz Accelerator to help you do the same in 2026 and beyond.In this video you'll learn:What no one tells you about selling a business: the emotional hangover & identity shiftWhy spaciousness (time to think) is a business strategy—not a luxuryHow to design a profitable, predictable, sellable studio with the right systemsThe difference between being an operator vs. a CEO/leaderHow I'm helping women owners build businesses that don't depend on them (Fit Biz Accelerator)Chapters00:00 Intro & why I'm sharing this now 02:18 The morning after the sale: identity, grief, and “no one needs me” 06:45 Seeing the rebrand: pride, letting go, and nervous system reset 11:20 What made my studio sellable: systems, team, and predictable profit 15:52 Choices the sale created (and why that matters more than a headline number) 20:30 You can sell for high six to low seven figures—here's the real path 24:10 Why spaciousness is strategy (you can't scale with a 5-figure mindset) 28:05 Fit Biz Accelerator: structure → systems → strategy → sustainability 33:40 Who it's for, how it works, and how to join 36:10 Final reminder: new results require new decisionsWork with me

We're sold the idea that balance means doing everything perfectly at the same time being productive at work, fully present at home, on top of the holidays, and magically finding space to grow a business or podcast without missing a beat. But that version of “balance” is the very thing keeping so many entrepreneurs and podcasters stuck in guilt, overwhelm, and the constant feeling of never being enough. In this episode, Olivia breaks down the lie behind traditional work–life balance and reveals why your real power comes from presence, intentionality, and the courage to release perfection. Through honest stories and the hard lessons learned while building her business, she shares how she went from 12-hour days to a seasonally adaptive, strategy-first approach without sacrificing results. If you've ever said “I don't have time,” waited for the perfect moment to start, or felt torn between your priorities, this conversation will shift how you see productivity, balance, and growth. Olivia unpacks why clarity matters more than control, why perfectionism stalls progress, and how redefining balance allows you to launch, build, and sustain your podcast or business with far less pressure and far more impact. You'll walk away with a new understanding of what balance actually looks like not equal time, but intentional time and the presence to show up where it matters most.Want to start your own podcast, grow your show, or get featured as a guest? Let's map it out together.

Does God actually like you - or just love you because He has to?If you're a high-achieving Christian woman in business or leadership who feels like God is constantly evaluating, correcting, and disappointed with you, this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast with Christian business & HR consultant Kerri Roberts is for you. We'll unpack why so many Christian women in business and faith-driven leadership feel spiritually “behind,” emotionally exhausted, and secretly convinced that God only tolerates them - and how Scripture says something very different.In this solo episode, Kerri invites Christian women in leadership, entrepreneurs, and ambitious, faith-driven professionals into a deeper look at God's heart. Drawing from her own story of leaving corporate life, downshifting to a Missouri farm, and walking through therapy, tapping, and spiritual unraveling, she reframes godly success as emotional health, identity, and spiritual confidence rooted in being liked and delighted in by God.You'll hear how attachment research, childhood patterns, and church culture can wire us to believe God is more corrective than relational - and how passages like Zephaniah 3, Psalm 18, John 15, and the prodigal son in Luke 15 reveal a God who rejoices over you, runs toward you, and calls you friend. Kerri walks through practical ways to rewire your nervous system and your imagination so that your leadership, business, marriage, and parenting flow out of being deeply enjoyed by God, not frantically trying to earn His approval.If you're a faith-driven entrepreneur or Christian woman in business who's tired of constant internal performance reviews, this conversation will help you experience God's delight, embrace your God-given limits, and step into more grounded, joyful, godly success without burning out.Tune in to hear:High-capacity Christian women often confuse responsibility with identity. We project our caregivers onto God. Scripture shows a God who delights, not just tolerates. Your limits are not a failure—they're a feature. Practical practices can reshape how you see God. Sponsor: HR in a BoxIf you're a small to mid-sized business owner who loves Jesus and wants to lead your people with excellence, HR in a Box is Kerri's signature, done-with-you HR system. It helps Christian entrepreneurs and leaders build healthy teams, fair pay structures, and sustainable people operations - without losing your soul (or your weekends) to HR chaos. It's built so you can steward your team well and still have margin for your faith, family, and emotional health.Resources & MentionsDevotional: You Were Never Meant to Do It All – A 40-Day Devotional on the Goodness of Being Human by Kelly Kapic (mentioned as part of Kerri's current spiritual + emotional formation work). https://amzn.to/4iicNKYIf this episode softened how you picture God or opened even a small door toward believing that He actually likes you, don't keep that to yourself.Subscribe to Don't Waste the Chaos on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify so you don't miss the upcoming episodes in this series on identity, emotional health, and godly success.Share this episode with a Christian woman in business or leadership who loves God but secretly believes He's mostly disappointed in her.Join Kerri's Monday Email List for deeper teaching on identity, leadership, and spiritual confidence for Christian women in leadership and faith-driven entrepreneurs: saltmidadvisors.com/contactSupport the show

In this episode of Sold Out Offers, I'm helping you pause before you kick an offer to the curb. We're digging into the real reasons an offer can start to feel heavy, flopped, or just… off. From not talking about it enough, to client hangovers, to unrealistic expectations for brand-new offers, this is a compassionate but honest look at why things stop selling.I also talk about urgency, format mismatches, and what happens when you try to run before you can walk (hello, premature memberships). If you've been quietly resenting an offer or avoiding talking about it altogether, this episode will help you figure out whether it needs tweaking, repositioning, or simply more attention — not deleting.This is the first in a short run of episodes all about reviving and refining your offers. We're moving them from “forgotten side stage” to full-on floor fillers — and next time, I'll be sharing the exact tweaks you can make to bring an offer back to life.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy not talking about your offer is often the biggest reason it stops sellingHow a difficult client can unfairly ruin an otherwise solid offerWhy new offers need time (and PR) before they gain tractionThe role urgency plays in making an offer compellingWhen an offer is right, but the format is wrongHow unclear or mismatched messaging can repel the right buyers"Most of the offers you want to get rid of are the ones you actually need to keep — there's just something else going on underneath."

There is a version of success that women in business are quietly handed… a script we're meant to follow without question. The perfect businesswoman is polished, confident, always composed, and constantly pushing for more. She is dedicated, but not intimidating. Feminine but not weak. Ambitious but never TOO much. And guess what? She's not real. In this episode of the HerBusiness Podcast, we're breaking down the perfect business woman myth and exploring how external expectations and internal pressure shape the way we show up in business — and what it costs. Because success that looks good on the outside, but feels misaligned on the inside? That's not success. It's performance. Here's What You'll Discover in this Episode:  Where the myth of the perfect businesswoman comes from, and why we are subtly engrained with "should" messaging. Why performative success leads to burnout, disconnection, and self-doubt (even when your business is financially thriving!) The toxic external expectations that lead to comparison, and a path that chases others' definition of success. Why telling yourself you "should be" at a different point in your business and life can be detrimental to your success and happiness. How to get aligned with what you actually want out of your business – and create a model that gives you alignment. What happens when you stop performing for others and lead authentically.

There's a seismic shift happening in the online space right now and the women who thrive in 2026 won't be the ones consuming more strategy, signing up for more certifications, or gathering more tools. They'll be the ones who finally integrate the truth they already carry. In this episode I'm sharing the energetic evolution I see unfolding for women in business, why identity and energetic mastery are becoming the true differentiators, and why the deeper work now isn't about fixing yourself. It's about embodying who you already are. We'll talk about nervous system leadership, energetic precision inside business, and what it actually looks like to lead from truth rather than effort.

What if the fastest way to grow your career isn't a straight climb but a series of smart, sideways moves that sharpen your empathy and judgment?  In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Catherine Wong, COO and CPO at Entrata, to unpack how she scales products and people by shaping cultures where every voice is invited, and the best ideas surface early. From engineering during the dot-com downturn to leading global teams through acquisitions and hypergrowth, Catherine shares the habits that turn uncertainty into momentum: practice your voice, ask for real feedback, and reward behaviors that build trust.We go deep on how product and operations intersect when you're building an operating system for real estate. Catherine explains why diverse perspectives improve outcomes and how leaders can intentionally signal what matters by recognizing thoughtful execution, not just loud opinions. Her take on the future of work is refreshingly actionable: AI changes the “how,” not the “why.” Whether you specialize or stay broad, treat curiosity like a muscle. Run small experiments, unlearn out-of-date tactics, and stay anchored to clear business outcomes.You'll hear practical frameworks for deciding under ambiguity. widen inputs, seek data, welcome dissent, and iterate with agility. Catherine also breaks down visibility tactics for women who are competent but overlooked: volunteer for updates, lead slices of complex projects, and request precise post-meeting feedback. Her story of integrating a UK acquisition while battling imposter syndrome reveals a simple truth: courage plus clarity compounds into trust, scope, and impact.If you care about culture design, product leadership, AI fluency, and building a resilient career in tech, this conversation is a blueprint you can use today.
