    The Courage Equation with Jaclyn Gallo S01 EPS563

    The Courage Equation with Jaclyn Gallo S01 EPS563

    In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Jaclyn Gallo. Hi, I’m Jaclyn. I’m a speaker, writer and life coach helping people create lives that spark the light inside of them. I’m a 2x bestselling author, host of the top 100 podcast Spark Your Light, and Tedx speaker who has delivered keynotes across the globe to organizations including Deloitte and Comcast NBCUniversal. My company, Spark Your Light Studios, has proudly reached millions of women in 96 countries. My journey began 7 years ago, when I found myself in a corporate internship, as a 21-year-old college student, questioning what I really wanted out of life. I wondered, "Is this it? Is this the best its ever going to get?" I knew that there had to be more out there for me. With no experience and no savings, I took a leap of faith and pursued my first business idea. It was a total failure, and I spent more than $50,000 (that I won in pitch contests, raised on Kickstarter and borrowed using credit cards) on ideas that never made it off the ground. Applying the lessons from the failures I experienced, I built a thriving company helping women use their failures as a springboard to achieve their goals, just like I did. And that's where it all began. In this episode we discuss failure, regret, courage, finding our purpose and the importance of listening as a coach.

    Choose Love with Samantha Ruberto S01 EPS560

    In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Samantha Ruberto. Samantha Ruberto is a heart-centered entrepreneur, Master Life Coach & host of the Hello BeYouTiful Podcast who specializes in energetic embodiment, having supported thousands of others to create a life of personal freedom & fulfillment. After a spiritual awakening 10 years ago, she walked away from her  “white picket fence life” where she once checked all of “society's boxes” to create a life that was in alignment with her Soul. This pursuit led her on a journey to traveling to 80+ countries where she not only learned about our external world, but her biggest lessons came through understanding the world within. Fascinated between the combination of science and spirituality and motivated by a deep curiosity for personal evolution and growth, she believes that life is always working out for us (even when we “think” it isn’t). She aspires to live an experience-rich life and is committed to helping others wake up to themselves and listen to the whispers of their hearts too. Today through her body of work (Soul Surgery) she serves as an intuitive guide to help others navigate and deeply understand their inner worlds and essentially, heal. In this episode we discuss being a heart centered entrepreneur, being in and of service, the dark ages and the importance of presence.
