A total badass and a native New Yorker, Natasha is an entrepreneur, media personality, coach, model, influencer, and recently — podcaster! Growing up in a culture that stressed hard work and success at all costs, Natasha was never going to be anything less than incredible. But for years, she pursued other people's ideas of incredible, set to their expectations.

"Choose you. When people are being toxic and naysayers, choose yourself, and choose to ignore the BS that other people try to impart upon you. It's their own cry for help, their own sadness, their own jealousy, their own weakness. Guess what? That is not your problem. That is not your narrative."

1. One minute, you're shocked that a coach would have the balls to charge you $40k… and the next, you're brainstorming on how to scrounge up that $40k
2. You do this even as you can't afford to put gas in your car — but you're utterly, thoroughly done being broke
3. Despite all your instincts, you find yourself buying into a cycle of verbally abusive marketing techniques
4. All of the above

If these feel familiar to you, congratulations! You're in good company with my guest today. Angella Johnson has transformed herself into a messaging and marketing genius despite the guru coaches who tried to steer her towards cookie cutter solutions… and even told her that nobody would ever pay for what she actually wanted to offer.

Well, the joke's on them, because Angella is killing it. Using the Intuitive Marketing Method, she guides entrepreneurs towards making great money doing the work they love. Known for her simple yet game changing techniques and her authentic vulnerability, Angella is all about working with intuition — not fear.

But fear is exactly how the guru coaches got their hooks into Angella.

"I felt broken, like I needed to get somebody who knew more than I did because I was only making a few hundred dollars a month. I saw a video on Facebook by a guru coach and I was mesmerized. I was so desperate to make money that I was ready to try things anyone else's way — because my way clearly wasn't working."

In this episode, Angella's not holding back. You'll hear all about:

• Why she felt like she was crashing as she approached multiple 6-figures in her business
• The slow realization that she'd built her business by perpetuating the very same "abuse" that made her feel like crap
• The importance of listening to and trusting the little voice that tells you when something isn't 100% right
• How much better your business will be when you can say, and honor, the word "No."

In the spirit of not acting like a guru coach myself, I'm not going to tell you that you have to listen to this episode. But I do encourage you to ask yourself, "Do I want to listen to an awesome podcast episode with a kick ass guest?" If the answer is yes, you're in the right place.

Brilliant badass though she may be (and trust me: she is), Kimra Luna is no stranger to those sinking feelings of shame. Growing up as a punk rocker in small-town Idaho, she's endured her fair share of judgmental comments and emerged as a tattooed mother of 3 boys and wildly successful personal branding and online business strategist. But it's not all fishnets, piercings, and vibrant hair dye. Kimra is refreshingly candid about all the BS she's had to burn to get to where she is today — in fact, she's grateful for it.

"I've been judged in ridiculous ways, and you know what? It doesn't matter. I do things even though I'll be judged."

If you've seen her Instagram, you already know: Kimra dresses how she wants, she shows up how she wants, and she is firmly grounded in exactly who she is. It's easier to imagine her grabbing the mic at a punk show than frozen in fear, unable to get out of bed. But from body shame to admitting to the world that her seemingly perfect marriage was coming to an end, she has been there. And for her, the way forward was approaching those fears, pen in hand, and journaling through them.

In this episode, Kimra will tell you all about:

• Limiting beliefs and how they can show up YEARS after you think you've defeated them
• Hyper self-awareness as a superpower (psst: you don't need a bite from a radioactive spider to activate it)
• Doing the damn thing even when you know people are going to judge you
• How journaling helps bridge the gap between irrational fears and reality, asking questions like, Hey… is this even real or factual? Is it going to harm me?

Are you dying to tell that little voice in your head to calm the F down? Done caring about what everyone else is going to think? Ready to take that next big step, judgement and shame be damned? Well strap on those hiking boots and put some wine in your Camelbak, folks, because we're going to cover some serious ground in this episode.

Nobody knows all of that better than my guest this week, Lindsay Vastola. She walked away from a successful corporate career because she knew she was meant to help women — but her ideas on how she would help them were constantly evolving. As the founder of Body Project, she expanded her offering from one-on-one coaching, to bootcamps, and eventually to a studio space with a thriving community. Business was booming, clients were happy, and it all seemed like a natural progression.

And then… she quit.

"For so long, I kept looking for everybody else to validate what I was thinking even though I knew inside that it wasn't right. In my business, every time I look externally for big answers, that's when I get off track. It's a thought process where, if I get approval, then I must be making the right decision."

She might be in the business of fitness, but Lindsay is all about emotional intelligence. That's why she couldn't tune out the little voice in the back of her mind that told her, right when she opened the doors to her studio, "This is not forever." Was it a scary thought? Hell yes. But she knew she had to listen, people-pleasing instincts be damned.

In this episode, Lindsay shares:

• How people pleasing leads to decision paralysis
• Giving yourself permission to stop doing things — even if you're good at them
• The pitfalls of both positive and negative "what ifs"
• Why listening to your self-talk should be the first step towards business reinvention

Well, the first step after you listen to this episode, of course. So tune in, and consider this podcast your formal invitation to join the Professional Quitters Association. (I'm not just the president — I'm also a member!)

The first time I laid eyes on Karen Graves, I turned to my friends and said, "Who is this woman? Where did she come from, and why have I never met her before?" Because she's amazing! Well, it turns out, the feeling was mutual. But Karen and I wasted more than a few years being intimidated by each other before we finally connected.

But I am so glad we finally did, because Karen is even cooler than I thought. As a kickass sales coach, Karen transforms sales-phobics into sales-aholics. She's been helping women start and scale their businesses for over a decade, and as a self-described "mama bear," she has no time for that manipulative, predatory BS we see so much of in the coaching space. (I know you know what I mean)

Part of the reason Karen doesn't mess with those methods? They worked on her, once upon a time. And it was. Not. Pretty. Not for her business, not for her growth, not for her family.

"In all my interactions up to this point, I was chasing the moment where someone would say to me, You are enough. You're smart enough, you're good enough, you know enough, you can do this. I wanted that validation, that pat on the head. But then someone said to me, Why are you waiting for someone else to fix something that's not broken?"

Now, I want to make it clear to everyone out there listening: this episode is not about Karen playing the victim. (Hello, that's my schtick, in case you missed the Season One finale.) We're not pointing fingers at how someone chooses to run their business. This is purely about our own stuff in response to our experiences.

In this episode, Karen will tell you all about:

• Signs that you're in "the bubble"
• What you really should be focusing on when you start something new in your business
• The importance of working with people who respect your values
• Self-validating on a budget
• Advice for anyone who hears Karen's story and thinks, "Oh shit, that's me"

You're already a kickass business owner, but might still be striving for gold stars and pats on the head. (Because I know I am.) So strap in, hit play, and don't waste another minute thinking that you're not enough.

Season 1 drops in November of 2018!
