Have you ever been hypnotized? When you hear the word hypnosis, I’m willing to bet the first thing you think of is those stage performances where an audience member is instructed to do something ridiculous. But in reality, hypnosis is so much more than that, and it can truly benefit you in many ways. Whether you want to stress less, sleep better, manage pain, lose weight, overcome fears, or improve professional performance, hypnosis can help you do it. This week’s Beyond Influential guest, Dr. David Spiegel is the expert when it comes to clinical hypnosis, and his mission is to help destigmatize hypnosis and show you how you can use the power of your own mind to heal and achieve. I wanted to have Dr. Spiegel on because this isn’t pseudoscience; what we discuss today is backed by decades of scientific research and clinical experience. Dr. Spiegel has a laundry list of accomplishments and accolades, including degrees from Yale and Harvard Medical School. He is currently serving as Willson Professor and Associate Chair of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, Director of the Center on Stress and Health, and Medical Director of the Center for Integrative Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he has been a member of the academic faculty since 1975. Dr. Spiegel has more than 40 years of clinical and research experience studying psycho-oncology, stress and health, pain control, sleep, hypnosis, and more. He has published thirteen books, over 400 scientific journal articles, and contributed over 170 book chapters on hypnosis, psychosocial oncology, stress physiology, trauma, and psychotherapy. His research has been supported by the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Cancer Institute, the National Institute on Aging, and several other organizations. He is Past President of the American College of Psychiatrists and the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis. He was also invited to speak on hypnosis at the World Economic Forum in Davos in 2018. On top of all of this, Dr. Spiegel is also the Co-Founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Reveri, which is an app designed to help you learn and use the proven techniques of self-hypnosis to experience the benefits of hypnosis quickly and conveniently. On Ep. 182, we cover: Hypnosis: What it is & how it worksBenefits of Hypnosis: How it can help with everything from reducing stress, anxiety, and depression to overcoming addiction, trauma, and phobias, to pain management, weight loss, better sleep, and improved focusClinical vs. Stage Hypnosis: What’s the difference?Can you be hypnotized? How to tell if you’re hypnotizableHypnosis vs. meditation: Similarities and differencesInduction techniques and best practices for self-hypnosisReveri: building the app, and the future of hypnosis Book Recommendation Trance and Treatment: Clinical Uses of Hypnosis by Herbert Spiegel, MD and David Spiegel, MD https://amzn.to/3JjA0es App I've been loving!

What if you could see in real-time how what you’re eating affects your health? We all know we should be “eating healthy”—but what does that mean exactly? Health is not one size fits all and with so much competing advice out there, I’m excited to introduce you to this week’s guest, Dr. Lauren Kelley-Chew. Lauren is a physician entrepreneur whose background includes private equity, a Y-Combinator backed digital therapeutics startup, and leading strategy and business operations at Verily Life Sciences (formerly Google X) where she focused on devices and emerging products. She is currently the Head of Clinical Product at Levels Health, a startup dedicated to improving your metabolic health by helping you make better (and tangible) lifestyle choices through personalized data. Levels uses wearable biosensors like continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to show you how the foods you eat affect your body specifically, in a quantifiable way. This is incredibly important because metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance is at epidemic levels in the US and it’s tied to virtually every symptom or disease you can think of—diabetes, Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, cancer, depression, anxiety, infertility, chronic fatigue, acne, psoriasis, and more. The good news is that it’s largely reversible by making some simple habit changes, which can go a long way in helping to prevent chronic disease and improve your quality of life. I’ve been excited about what Levels is doing and where they plan to expand. They have an all-star team of MD’s, former SpaceX and Google engineers, advisors including previous guest Dr. Molly Maloof, Dr. Mark Hyman, Dom D'Agostino, Ph.D., Dr. Sara Gottfried, and David Sinclair, Ph.D., and huge investors backing them. On Ep. 181, we cover: Why Lauren ditched the traditional medical practice route and her experience as a woman working in the tech sceneMetabolic Health: What it is, why it’s important, how it relates to diet, sleep, exercise, and stress, and how it’s affected by glucose and insulinHow CGMs can help you optimize your dietWhat she learned using Levels for herself, and how she's adjusted her dietWomen’s health, the keto diet, and how it affects men and women differentlyOptimal blood sugar levels, what order you should eat your food, and other actionable tipsBehind the scenes of Levels Health—their culture, content process, and more!

This episode is all about a topic that needs to be discussed more openly, especially for women… and that’s money. Like it or not, money is a necessity in our society and it’s also an important source of power, which means it is incredibly important to feel confident and empowered when it comes to anything related to your finances. And whether you’re aware of it or not, everyone has a unique relationship and internal dialogue around money that affects your monetary habits, behaviors, and decisions. This week’s guest is a leading authority on helping women transform their relationship with wealth and power so you can live up to your financial and personal potential. Barbara Huson (previously known as Barbara Stanny), is a bestselling author, financial therapist & wealth coach who has helped millions take charge of their finances and their lives. She has been featured on countless outlets including Good Morning America, The View, Extra, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, Fox News, PBS, NPR, the New York Times, and USA Today. The reason I wanted to have Barbara on as a guest specifically is because of her unique experience, expertise, and ability to educate that separates her from other money mindset coaches out there. Barbara is the bestselling author of 7 money books (linked below)—I’ve read several of them and I can’t recommend them enough. Her latest book, Rewire for Wealth: Three Steps any Woman Can Take to Program Her Brain For Financial Success is easily one of my favorites ever written on the topic and we dig into what you need to know in this in-depth conversation. On Ep. 177, we cover: The biggest reasons women have money issues and where to start fixing them Barbara’s unique financial background & how she overcame a million dollar tax bill left by her ex-husband as a single mom of threeWhat wealthy women are doing differently from the restRewiring Your Brain For Wealth: The three steps for wealth, wellbeing, and anything else you needThe role of spirituality and neuroscience in changing your mindsetThe least intimidating place to start changing your money mindset & more!

I thought now would be a great time to reshare the most popular Beyond Influential interview of all time, Episode 45 with Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, aka Melissa Wood Health, on Tapping into Your Passion & Staying Unfiltered in an Instagram World. And while I’m sure there have been a few changes in the specific details as she’s scaled, the conversation still holds up today. Since this episode was recorded, I’ve loved watching the growth and evolution of Melissa’s brand and business. (At the time, I hadn’t tried her workouts, but since then they’ve really helped out when I fell off the workout wagon during the pandemic.) Melissa Wood Health on Creating a Brand & Business Around Her Passion Melissa Wood-Tepperberg is the founder of the MWH method, a certified yoga and pilates instructor, meditator, a proponent of plant based diets, and most importantly a mom of two. Melissa regularly creates health & wellness content for a VERY devoted audience online. While the wellness influencer space is saturated with perfectly curated feeds, what's interesting about Melissa's brand is that she prefers to share her journey unfiltered, from her photos to her personal struggles to get to this point. She has been open about her journey from severe anxiety and an awful eating disorder and has been using her platform to help de-stigmatize these topics. On this episode, we cover: How Melissa discovered her passion & the journey to making it a scalable business (and how to find yours if you don't know!)How she stopped comparing herself to others on Instagram Melissa's brand: her 3Ms, her target audience, her content process, influencer marketing, collabs & more!

“Should I have kids?” “Do I want kids?” “Will I regret becoming a parent?” “Will I regret not becoming a parent?” Indecision around parenthood is way more common than you think and it’s time to remove the shame and judgment from the topic by having open conversations like this week’s Beyond Influential episode. Ann Davidman is a licensed marriage and family therapist, a motherhood and fatherhood clarity mentor, and the co-creator of the program and book, Motherhood - Is it for me?, which has been a trusted resource for women experiencing ambivalence about motherhood. For the past 30 years, Ann has been coaching potential parents in a supportive and non-judgmental way to help them discover their true desire about whether they want to have children or live a childfree life. On Ep. 175, we cover: How Ann started a business around parenthood indecisionMotherhood & Fatherhood Clarity Framework: What it is & How it was developed The shifts and similarities over the decades on concerns and attitudes on parenthood How the decision is different for men vs. womenRegrets & the myth of changing your mind “Do I want kids?” What factors you need to evaluateDestigmatizing a child-free life, what she would add to her book today, & more!

I loved chatting with this week’s Beyond Influential guest—it’s easily one of my favorite interviews I’ve done for the show because it dives into the highly relevant topic of what it truly means to be an adult in today’s world. This is an important conversation as many millennials and more and more Gen Z-ers are currently trying to be an adult while simultaneously starting to raise the next generation of adults. New York Times bestselling author Julie Lythcott-Haims is a speaker, teacher, mentor, and activist who brings so much value and experience to the table and delivers insight after insight in this conversation. As the former Stanford dean of freshmen and undergraduate advising, Julie has encountered countless twenty and thirty somethings who feel they’re just playing the part of “adult,” while internally struggling with anxiety and stress. She has written multiple books that I can highly recommend. Her first book, How to Raise an Adult, led to a popular Ted Talk on How to Raise Successful Kids Without Overparenting. And now her most recent book, Your Turn: How to Be an Adult, examines and answers the question, “What does it really mean to be an adult today?” and includes practical strategies for living a more authentic adult life. In Ep. 174, we cover: Julie’s journey from lawyer to creating her own role at Stanford to acclaimed authorWhy many millennials don’t feel confident in their adulting skillsWhat it actually means to be an adult (and why it’s a process, not a checklist)Why you need to stop “playing it safe” in order to live your most authentic life, and more!

Update: This episode with Drew Afualo was originally posted September 21, 2021, and since then she's continued to blow up with over 6.6M TikTok followers. When we spoke, Drew said one of her dreams was having her own talk show, and now she's the host of a weekly show, The Comment Section, where she and her guests explore their dreaded TikTok comment sections. This week's guest Drew Afualo DOES NOT hold back. Drew Afualo is a TikTok star who gained popularity through her comedic videos roasting misogynists and other toxic men. She has quickly grown to over one million followers and counting. Drew’s wit is strategic and she’s been a beacon of confidence for women on TikTok—empowering them to not settle for less than they deserve. She’s also an ally to women of color and other marginalized communities. We had a great conversation about her journey, including getting fired from her dream job, and realizing that the dream wasn’t actually the dream, how she ended up on TikTok, how she decides who to roast, how she handles haters and more.

Are you too hard on yourself? Do you hold yourself to the highest standards and demand perfection? For many entrepreneurs, self-compassion and being nice to yourself usually aren’t at the top of the to-do list. It’s common for business owners and high achievers to put pressure on themselves as a way to motivate, perform, and succeed. (And you might not even notice the negative ways you speak to yourself.) While this may be effective in the short term, ultimately it’s harmful and doesn’t produce the desired results in the long-term. Self-compassion is essential for entrepreneurs to succeed sustainably. When most people think of self-compassion, it’s usually associated with complacency or lack of ambition and drive, when it’s actually the opposite. It turns out (and research shows) that self-compassion is highly effective for helping increase motivation and achieve your goals. This week’s Beyond Influential guest, Dr. Kristin Neff, is a pioneer and one of the most influential researchers in the field of self-compassion. Nearly 20 years ago, she conducted the first self-compassion empirical studies, including setting the standard to define and measure it and has been leading the way since. She has authored several bestselling books that I can recommend, including Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourself and The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook. Her newest book, Fierce Self-Compassion: How Women Can Harness Kindness to Speak Up, Claim Their Power, and Thrive, is a must-read for all women. On Ep. 173, we cover: What is self-compassion & how it’s different from self-esteem and empathyThe two types of self-compassion: Fierce vs. tenderMyths and misunderstandings around self-compassion Why self-compassion is more effective than criticism for successful achievementHow self-compassion increases your ability to be authentic How to practice self-compassion, why it’s especially important for women, and more!

Let’s talk about sex! My guest this week is Dr. Kate Balestrieri, a sex therapist and co-founder of Modern Intimacy, a safe space where people can find expert-driven information, professional resources, and an inclusive community—because every person has a right to a safe, empowered, and pleasurable relationship with sexuality.

This week’s episode is an awesome conversation I had with retired Marine Corps Captain Rich Cardona for his podcast, The Leadership Locker. I love that he says starting and growing a business is harder than it was to serve in the United States Marines. We had a great conversation not only during the interview, but also after we finished recording. We really hit it off, and I appreciate how incredibly thoughtful and intentional he is around the integrity of his podcast and it’s an honor to have been a guest on his show. I definitely recommend checking out the Leadership Locker Podcast as well as his recently-started podcast on NFT’s called NFTs for Newbies. In this conversation, we chat about all things personal branding and the pivots I’m currently making in my own personal brand and business. On Ep. 170, we talk: Tips for building your personal brand: Getting started, content creation, niching down vs. going broad, & keeping it authentic Important lessons I learned before starting my own businessHappiness, sunk cost fallacy, and why you need to listen to your gut Designing my business around life and not my life around businessWhy I’m pivoting and going all in on Beyond Influential, and more!

I love love love this week’s guest, Christi Lukasiak. You might recognize her from the hit reality Lifetime series Dance Moms, but I actually first became aware of her when she joined my community and became one of my coaching clients, and it wasn’t until after that point that I learned about her time on reality TV. We’ve since become friends, and what you see is what you get. On top of being incredibly smart and a boss, she’s just as hilarious as she comes across on the show and social media. I ended up watching Dance Moms to prepare for this conversation and I see why she’s still everyone’s favorite cool mom. Not only does she have an incredible social media presence, but she’s been reaching all new audiences through the syndication of Dance Moms on various streaming platforms. She’s refreshingly honest, and for better or worse, she fully owns her time on the show and the ups and downs that brings. She’s on a mission to empower the next generation of women with the tools they need to succeed as an adult, and on this episode, she gets real with me on all the things you want to know. On Ep. 168 with Christi Lukasiak, we cover: The reality behind reality TV: What it wasreallylike behind the scenes of Dance MomsRegrets, mental health, and why she left a hit show in its primeBullying, mom-shaming, and the challenges of parenting in the public eyeHow she worked with me to find her niche and why personal branding has been essential to her and her family’s success Christi’s business: How she monetizes, creating Adulting 101, launching her Begin Planner, what she’s focusing on next, and more!
