What happens when you listen and act on your intuition? A beautiful partnership, a bold collaboration, and a meaningful movement begins. This kick-off episode features the dynamic duo who brought this project to life: Their collaboration, which they call “naïve joy,” is proof of what’s possible when you quiet the doubts, trust your gut, and dare to ask.

Author Feature: Shawnté Elbert
In this heartfelt conversation, Shawnté opens up about how she moved through fear—not by ignoring it—but by learning to work with it. This is your reminder that fear is often part of growth. It means you’re expanding, evolving, and stepping into something meaningful. You don’t have to let it hold you back—you get to choose how you move forward.

Author Feature: Jackie Cetera
With humor, honesty, and heart, Jackie Cetera, founder of JNC Innovations, invites us to rethink what success truly means—to honor our intuition and choose alignment over pressure. In this conversation, she guides us through the power of letting go—not as a sign of giving up, but as a way of making space for something better.

Author Feature:Â Amy Quesenberry
In this episode, I talk with Amy as she shares her story of releasing past trauma and embracing a life led by compassion. Her story is proof that when we choose to heal, we rise into the leaders we were always meant to be. And that letting go of old patterns can open the door to deeper connection, both at work and in life.
Release. Reflect. Rise.
