What if your business could be both wildly successful and soulfully aligned? In this episode, I talk with Rachael James, the founder of Wild Alabaster and Urban Alchemy Coffee Co., about building brands that are both beautiful and healing, crafting a life that fits your actual needs, and how to panic responsibly when the momentum takes off faster than you planned.
We talk about:
* How she accidentally became a crystal dealer and made $10k in a weekend
* Her philosophy of therapeutic retail and what makes an experience sacred
* Why she believes in magic, science, and the power of aesthetic healing
* How she navigates burnout, motherhood, and scaling without losing herself
* The power of branding, pacing, and staying rooted in your “why”
Whether you’re building a business, a portfolio life, or just figuring out your next chapter—this episode is a warm, grounded reminder that you don’t have to do it all at once. The thing meant for you will show up.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
