    It’s Never Too Late: Creating Success on Your Own Terms - with Leslie Kuster

    It’s Never Too Late: Creating Success on Your Own Terms - with Leslie Kuster

    Do you ever feel like it’s too late for you to succeed? Or worried that if you do succeed, you would become so busy that you’d lose your freedom and flexibility? Well...do I have a podcast for you! In this episode, I am interviewing Leslie Kuster, founder of the clothing line Back From Bali and an entrepreneur with multiple 7-figure earnings. But she didn’t start out that way. In fact, it wasn’t until she was in her fifties that she decided that she was tired of doing “just OK” in her business and that it was time to claim her desire for money and success. But not in a selfish or materialistic way—in a way that allowed her even MORE freedom, alignment and personal growth. This episode is a pep talk for any of you who struggle to know what you want, aren’t sure how to achieve success, and care about staying happy and authentic to yourself along the way. Don’t miss it!

    Finding Your Highest Self in The Lowest Moments - with Margy Feldhuhn

    Finding Your Highest Self in The Lowest Moments - with Margy Feldhuhn

    To be human is to experience loss. Whether that’s the loss of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, or the loss of normalcy, loss has the power to knock us down and keep us low. But after the initial shock, it also has the power to transform us—if we let it. (I know many of us have seen that first hand in the last year and a half!)  The first thing loss can transform is our beliefs about ourselves, which, as my guest on my upcoming webinar says, “can be an incredible gift.” This special live episode with guest Margy Feldhuhn. Margy is the CEO of Interview Connections, a podcast guest booking agency and the host of the podcast “We Get it: Your Dad Died.” Her refreshing perspective on grief will inspire you toward transformation, whether or not you’re experiencing loss right now. Listen in for a healing conversation that takes the stigma out of grief, helps you identify the gifts that loss may have given you, and encourages you on your personal transformation journey.

    Learning To Love Yourself Just As You Are - with Arvat McClaine

    Learning To Love Yourself Just As You Are - with Arvat McClaine

    What if your life didn’t have to be so hard? What if it could feel effortless and joyful? And what if you could learn to love yourself even when you don’t like yourself? In our conversation, I explored these possibilities in a She Made It LIVE webinar with Arvat McClaine. Her journey began in poverty, abuse, and depression—and her transformation story is nothing short of inspiring.  Today, she is a self-made millionaire and author whose mission is to help others break out of limiting paradigms, love themselves unconditionally and live with purpose.  Nearly every woman I talk to battles thoughts of unworthiness and uncertainty on the path to purpose. But most of us are living just a few mindset shifts away from a life that feels purposeful. If you want to make a shift, tap into your magic, align with the divine and recalibrate your life, listen in.

    Stop Making Yourself Small - with Danielle Bennett Simmons

    Are you playing small or living big? And more importantly, are you striking a healthy balance between the two? My guest on today’s episode is Danielle Benett Simmons, a poet who has performed and taught around the world. Her journey took her from fearing a “normal life” and wearing busyness as a badge of honor to coming out of hiding, living in the present and prioritizing her health. As you listen to this interview, you’ll be inspired by her story to create your most meaningful life, reframe your relationship with yourself, and give yourself permission to make big moves—while always appreciating the small, holy moments that make up our lives. Let Danielle and I be your guides as we find balance between the paradoxes of hustling and resting, living small and big, grieving and growing, and success and failure.

    Shifting How You Think About Yourself - LIVE with Ashley Walters

    Shifting How You Think About Yourself - LIVE with Ashley Walters

    Are you living in a limiting paradigm? In the last century, the possibilities for women have expanded exponentially—and yet many of us still struggle to feel confident and fully step into our power. That’s why I shared the virtual stage with an incredible woman who is working to shift the way women around the world think about themselves. Ashley Walters is one of the most dynamic women I know. She was recently named to Adweek’s 2021 Woman Trailblazer list out of hundreds of applicants (along with Kamala Harris and other powerhouse women.) She's the Chief Development Officer and co-owner of Curiosity (an independent ad agency in Cincinnati and AdAge's Small Agency of the Year), she’s a champion of inclusivity and diversity, and she’s the mom of three young girls. And as humble as she is, she even has her own fan club! If you’re ready to own your confidence, find your passion, and do work that really matters to you, listen in.

Miriam Schulman ,

😍 Love it 😍

Especially enjoyed the interview with Lori Siebert
Many women struggle with putting their creativity first because they’re accustomed to always putting themselves and their needs on the back burner

Looking forward to more episodes @schulmanArt host of The Inspiration Place podcast

Elle has a natural curiosity that makes her a good listener who asks good questions. I get so much from her interviews and love who she picks to talk to.👍

Helpful and relateable

I like to listen to the podcasts that I feel are related to me and my life. Sometimes I find that certain topics will help me relate to other people as well. Elle has a way of connecting with people no matter who what or where they are in life. Thanks for putting in the time so we can live better.
