In this conversation, leadership expert Tiffany Connauton challenges the outdated workplace systems, HR structures, and performance models that no longer serve a modern work...

Most of us have not stopped to ask what that does to us.
In the second part of this AI conversation, Amy and guest, Bill Kirst, go deeper into the grief of living in...

Most professionals believe their work should speak for itself until they realize opportunity favors those who are understood, not just competent. In a grounded, candid conversation, Shauna Van Mourik explores why personal branding is no longer about self-promotion, but about clarity, connection, and translating internal value into external opportunity. Together, the discussion reframes personal brand as a deeply human practice root...
Something breaks when devotion outpaces reciprocity, and many high-performing women do not realize the cost until the collapse is unavoidable. In this conversation, Alexandra Norris traces her journey from decades of HR leadership into a profound reckoning shaped by codependence, ambition, and identity loss. Together with Amy, she explores how care becomes self-erasure, why boundaries fail where standards succeed, and what emerges ...
Finding Treasures in the Trash has always lived between what we hide and what saves us, and this moment marks its most honest turning point yet. Cari Jacobs-Crovetto shares why the show is stepping out on its own and moving to the newly formed Magic Thread Media, a network devoted to weaving conscious voices into business, creativity, and spiritual life. As she reflects on the early episodes, Cari names the deeper work that has qui...

In a world that often rewards silence over truth, this conversation invites us into the radical possibility that courage can be compassionate and compassion can be ferocious. Sandra Bargman joins Amy to explore how choosing authenticity over approval transforms the way we lead, speak up and refuse the quiet self-betrayal that so many of us have normalized. Together they peel back the layers of social conditioning, especially for wo...
Gen Z was never the problem child of the workplace as much as a mirror showing leaders how our parenting and leadership habits shaped the next wave of employees.
