  • Ep. 111 How To Stop Seeing Achievement As Validation With Equinox’s Lavinia Errico
    Oct 28 2024

    Lavinia Errico is the original queen of wellness. Back in the 90s, she set up Equinox alongside her brothers. They were the pioneers of gyms that were built for young city-dwellers. Their business was at the heart of the rise of the wellness boom and Lavinia’s story is incredible. But what I really didn’t expect is how incredible her thoughts were on the importance of reinvention and transformation after something like Equinox.

  • Ep. 110 Google UK Chief: How To Become An Exceptional Leader (+ What You Need To Know About Work and AI)
    Oct 21 2024

    If you have a corporate job, you have to watch this episode.


    Today, I’m so excited to be joined by Debbie Weinstein, Managing Director at Google UK. Debbie has not only been a trailblazer in the digital and tech industries, but she’s also someone who has continuously pushed the boundaries of what’s possible in the corporate world.


    I wanted this episode to be a manual for exactly how to build your dream corporate career, we get into the weeds of what it takes to get ahead, the key difference with high performers, the art of being a good manager, and generally how to navigate the complexities of the corporate world.

  • Ep. 109 How I Stopped Overthinking: The Theory That Changed My Life
    Oct 14 2024

    I’ve given myself an excuse to spend hours researching the topics I wish I knew more about so you don’t need to read a whole book to understand something important.


    So I've started with one of the most important things I've researched over the last few years: how to channel your overthinking and make it your superpower.


    The episode is only 35 minutes long, so perfect for your morning hot girl walk! Let me know what you think!
