Rank #3: 18. How Alisha Ramos Went From Working In Tech To Cultivating A Movement
If there’s one word that characterises the feeling since the 2016 presidential election, particularly amongst women, it’s anxiety, and with that has come a long overdue cultural conversation about wellness and self-care.
It sparked Alisha Ramos to take, Girls' Night In, which was then a self-funded side project, and turn it into a fully-fledged business. One that’s building a community among women who want to take care of themselves and each other while having a good time and cultivating meaningful relationships.
To do so, she walked away from an impressive job in tech, after working her way up to become Vox Media’s product design director.
Alisha talks candidly about the fact that, as an entrepreneur, you never quite know whether you’ve made the right decision in leaving the comfortability of a stable career but also the reassurance that comes with seeing her community grow week on week.
We talk about how she’s diversifying her revenue streams, evolving from content to events, a membership program and now physical products and what that means for her team and the way she allocates her time.
With so much growth in just one year of business, she also sheds light on trying to find a healthy middle ground between ambition and grace.

Rank #4: 71. How To Free Yourself From Lies That Keep You Small With Tanya Geisler
In this episode of the show, we’re talking to TEDx speaker and transformative coach, Tanya Geiser.
She came to coaching after years in an outwardly successful but ultimately unsatisfying career in advertising. She logged the hours, delivered the results but kept waiting for a deep-seated feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction that never arrived.
9/11, the death of her mother and the birth of daughter within a 9 month span was the turning point that inspired her to leave her job and really uncover what her true purpose is.
Today, she works with clients in overcoming the limiting beliefs keeping them small so they too, can step into their true calling.
In our conversation, Tanya breaks down the main differences between self-doubt and imposter complex and the mistaken beliefs we tell ourselves that keep us stuck. We walks through strategies you can use to quickly identify limiting beliefs and work through them.

Rank #5: 12. Michelle Adams On Creating a Life & Business On Your Own Terms
Impressive is quite the understatement to describe Michelle Adams’ CV. She cut her teeth at Domino magazine, fresh out of college, only to return a few years resurrecting the interior’s magazine after its hiatus in the role of editor in chief – making her the youngest EIC in Condé Nast history.
Michelle has always been entrepreneurial. Even during her first stint at Domino, she founded her own soft goods and upholstery company, Rubie Green, after she noticed that the eco-friendly textile market was undertapped while researching for Domino’s annual “green issue. She’s perhaps, most well-known for co-founding Lonny magazine before later selling to Livingly Media.
After Domino she decided to leave her life in New York and move closer to home in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
“It was a big decision for sure, but honestly, I haven’t looked back and I couldn’t be happier to have made that kind of life change. I was burnt out and had spent so many years focusing on my career that I had lost touch with the things that matter to me, like my family, friends, and my own health. Now that I’m all settled in my home and my new consulting career is firmly in place, I can’t imagine ever moving back to New York.”
In today’s episode Michelle talks about what it was like at the helm of some of the most influential interiors titles in the world and why she had no regrets walking away from it all and starting again with the launch of her online store, The Maryn. We explore how she’s carved a definition of success on her own terms and break down what living her best life means now.

Rank #6: 37. The Art of Running An Intuitive Big, Small Business With Susan Connor
There is so much misinformation out there about entrepreneurship right now; from one size fits all formulas, glorification of the hustle and outdated ideas of what a successful business actually looks like.
That’s why we’re so thrilled to have textile designer, Susan Connor on the podcast today. She is the perfect example of an entrepreneur who has steered away from convention and tapped into her intuition to create a profitable business on her own terms.
In this episode, you will learn why Susan decided to follow her instinct and close her first business despite the success she was experiencing. We talk about why entering into an industry as outsider can often be your competitive advantage and the questions she asks herself before she creates anything.
Susan also shares why historically she’s said ‘no’ to big opportunities when they’ve felt out of alignment and the strategies she’s used instead to grow her client base in a slower, but more fulfilling way.
As Tony Robbins famously said, running a business is 80% mindset and 20% strategy so explore that. She talks candidly about the resistance that has popped up as she’s grown her business beyond her wildest expectations and the mental work she’s had to do to overcome that and truly step into her power.

Rank #7: 40. Growing A Product Based Business – What’s Working Now with Ariel Gordon
Whether you’re in a full-time job with ambitions of starting your own brand or have already taken the plunge and want to scale, this episode was created for you.
Join me as I talk to jewellery designer Ariel Gordon about her journey, transitioning from Hollywood publicist to the founder of her eponymous jewellery line, which, next year will celebrate 10 years in business.
Today, she has a booming direct to consumer business; a slew of lucrative wholesale partners and her jewellery is regularly spotted on influencers, celebrities and magazine covers.
But success aside, this episode is all about shedding light to the strategies Ariel implemented to make it all happen – strategies you can implement for your product-based business too.
In the episode, Ariel breaks down why working for a jewellery designer before starting up on her own was one of the best decisions she ever made. She shares some of the mindset shifts any entrepreneur needs to make when it comes to taking risks and getting started.
As a former publicist, she relied heavily on a press coverage to build momentum in the early days. She walks us through how she did that and the reveals the type of publicity that converts into the most sales now (the example she gives will definitely surprise you!).
Navigating the wholesale world is challenging so we quizzed Ariel on how she’s chosen the stores she works with, what to know about managing cash flow in taking on big orders and how to cultivate relationships with stores that last.
With her big milestone around the corner, we also talk about how she’s creating enough white space to come up with new ideas and future-proof what she’s created.

Rank #8: 3. Finding Your Extraordinary with Stella & Dot CEO, Jessica Herrin
In today’s episode, we talk to Jessica Herrin, CEO and founder of Stella & Dot, the social selling business that creates flexible entrepreneurial opportunities for women. While her name might not ring a bell, you’ll definitely recognise their jewellery. It’s available online and through in-home trunk shows through independent stylists who keep up 35% of the value of sales they make.
This podcast was recorded last year when we caught up with Jessica after the launch of her book, Finding Your Extraordinary: Dream Big, Live Happier and Achieve Success on Your Own Terms. The book isn’t about having it all. Instead, it focuses on having what matters most to you. It’s about how find your extraordinary career, your extraordinary happiness, your extraordinary life.
After leaving school, she worked with a series of tech start-ups before attending Stanford Business school, where, at 24 years old, she cofounded a wedding-gift registry site, which later merged with WeddingChannel.com and was later sold for $78million.
When she started Stella & Dot, it was a side business while she worked full-time as a marketing manager at Dell and was pregnant with her first child. Last year, the company expanded beyond trend-led accessories to include two new brands: Keep Collective, a line of keepsake jewellery, and EVER Skincare.
Jessica has also been recognized for her business savvy by Oprah, The Wall Street Journal and countless over publications and was also honoured by Ernest & Young and Inc. 500 as a Top Entrepreneur.

Rank #10: 19. How To Launch & Scale A Million-Dollar One-Person Business With Elaine Pofeldt
In this episode we’re talking to Elaine Pofeldt, former senior editor at Fortune Small Business magazine.
Elaine has dedicated her career to writing about entrepreneurship for publications such as Crain's New York Business, Fortune, Money, Inc., CNBC and many others.
The rise of one-million-dollar, one-person businesses in the past five years is the biggest trend in employment today, offering the widest range of people the most ways to earn a living while having the lifestyles they want and it’s the focus of her latest book, The Million-Dollar, One-Person Business.
It offers a road map to creating a seven-figure, ultra-lean business by sharing the strategies of entrepreneurs who have approached and hit $1 million in revenue before adding employees.
From their experiences, you’ll learn how to come up with the right business idea, how to develop concrete strategies you can use to turn your vision into reality, and how to scale your revenues and profits once they start rolling in.
In the episode we break down those themes and discuss the barriers stopping women from securing venture capital, the considerations you need to make before outsourcing work and what to start with first and why it’s more possible now than ever before to make a profitable business that serves the life you want to lead.

Elaine has dedicated her career to writing about entrepreneurship for publications such as Crain's New York Business, Fortune, Money, Inc., CNBC and many others.
The rise of one-million-dollar, one-person businesses in the past five years is the biggest trend in employment today, offering the widest range of people the most ways to earn a living while having the lifestyles they want and it’s the focus of her latest book, The Million-Dollar, One-Person Business.
It offers a road map to creating a seven-figure, ultra-lean business by sharing the strategies of entrepreneurs who have approached and hit $1 million in revenue before adding employees.
From their experiences, you’ll learn how to come up with the right business idea, how to develop concrete strategies you can use to turn your vision into reality, and how to scale your revenues and profits once they start rolling in.
In the episode we break down those themes and discuss the barriers stopping women from securing venture capital, the considerations you need to make before outsourcing work and what to start with first and why it’s more possible now than ever before to make a profitable business that serves the life you want to lead.

Rank #11: 38. How To Intentionally Create An Abundance Mindset & Flow Into Alignment
We all know that having a positive mindset is the secret source to cultivate lives and businesses that we love but where to start?
That’s the question we posed to mindset expert, Ayla Khosroshahi on this episode of the show.
Ayla is the co-founder of Mindshift Ninja, a company she founded with her brother to support people in overcoming limiting beliefs, getting to grips with their why and learning how to thrive without strain.
We start our conversation by exploring the empowering questions Ayla asked herself that helped her go from burnt out and sick to doing the work she does today.
She explains why willpower isn’t enough to manifest your dreams and the strategies you can use to show up even when you don’t feel motivated to.
We explore simple, daily practices you can use to get into alignment and how to approach productivity with compassion rather than judging ourselves on how much we output.
Ayla gets candid about the mindset challenges that popped up since she gave birth for the first time last year and also gives you the tools you need to create a growth mindset no matter what challenges pop-up in your life.

Rank #12: 17. What An MS Diagnosis Taught This Magazine Owner About Taking Risks
Today on the show I’m talking to my friend, Alison Engstrom, founder of Brooklyn-based, print magazine, Rose & Ivy.
From the very first discovery of her mother’s copies of Vogue, she was entranced by print and moved to New York from Charleston, South Carolina with the hopes of securing a role in the beauty department of one of the women’s magazines. But this all happened against the backdrop of the recession. Nobody was hiring and it was the start of teams shrinking and the closure of many of the beloved magazines we’ve all grown up with.
It’s what promoted her transition into marketing before ultimately closing that door and going full circle in creating a print magazine of her own.
Alison and I talk about what it was like being laid off, not once, twice but three times from marketing roles and how, looking back, it seems like the universe had always been trying to point her in a different direction.
She talks candidly about being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a month before her wedding day, and how her diagnosis gave her the confidence to follow her bliss and pursue her dream.
We also talk about how she started the magazine with no industry contacts and is now working with leading designers and rising talent on covers, only two and a half years in.

Rank #20: 5. Overcoming Missteps And Reinventing Your Career With Bitten CEO & Founder, Naz Riahi
In today’s episode I’m talking to Naz Ree-ah-hi, CEO and founder of Bitten, a culinary conference that set out to change the conversation around food and open an inclusive community to a wider audience.
After almost a decade working in advertising and marketing, she was attracted to the food space for its innovation and creativity but felt that the space was insular. Ever the disruptor, she decided to change that.
The first Bitten conference, took place in New York back in 2015. A week before the event, tickets were totally sold out. The day of, she was fielding ticket requests from people willing to pay cash to get in.
More than 300 strangers came for a full day of 20-minute TED-talk style presentations showcasing the future of food told by the people who are making it happen.
In today’s episode, Naz reveals for the first time that, despite toying with the idea of launching her own business for a while, she finally took the plunge after being fired from her corporate job.
Unsurprisingly, the experience was scary but she was driven by the belief in her vision, knowing that sometimes you have to take risks to make things happen.
Last year she took the conference to the West Coast for the first time and was one of a handful of people invited to attend the South by South Lawn festival (inspired by South By South West) at the White House.
In our conversation she reflects back on all the doubts she had in the beginning, not knowing whether prominent leaders would sign on to speak and not knowing how many tickets they’d be able to sell.
The next Bitten conference takes place on May 12 in NYC. thisisbitten.com
