I'm sharing her eulogy today, and the soundtrack of her life, because music has the power to connect us to our own stories.

Which songs would be on your soundtrack?

I met Gina Moore at the register of her store Pluff Mud Mercantile in Charleston on a day when I was grieving more than I realized. What started as help finding a birthday gift for a friend turned into a thirty-minute conversation that shifted something in me. I left feeling more like myself than I had in weeks.

In this episode Gina and I talk about the moments that pull us out of our heads and back into our hearts, what it means to...

Jaclyn Michelle Smith's memoir "I'm Sorry I Cremated You" captures what it's really like to love and care for an aging parent: the heartbreak, the impossible decisions, the guilt, and the unexpected moments of hilarity and laughter.

Lindsay Ferrier built a career on wit, honesty, and saying out loud what everyone else was thinking. Her blog Suburban Turmoil was one of the most widely read mom blogs of its era. But for years, she kept one part of her story completely hidden.

In this episode, Lindsay opens up about the abuse she endured behind closed doors, the moment she knew she had to leave, and the promise she made to herself: that once she was free, she'd be...

Jonathan "Mookie" Morant wrote and produced for the Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Justin Timberlake, and Queen Latifah, and then walked away from all of it to be present for his kids. His memoir The Happy Has Been is about what he found on the other side of that choice.

Today I'm sharing a conversation I had as a guest on the Badass Women in Business podcast.
