Episode #53: How to Clear Your Money Blocks | Interview with Polly Alexandre

Welcome back, Warriors! In this episode, we are talking about money blocks. What they are, where they come from, and why we have them. As entrepreneurs and especially as women, we need to know about these money blocks and what we can do to clear them from our lives.

Polly Alexandre had a successful career, bought her dream home in a new country, and got engaged. She thought it couldn’t get any better, but soon after, her life came crashing down. Today, Polly shares how with resilience and determination she was able to build it back up again and learn her true gift, activating wealth in others.

Episode #52: Don’t Overthink Your Way To Success | Interview With Jewelry Designer and Entrepreneur Lisi Lerch

Hey there, Warriors! Have you ever had an idea that kept nagging at you? It could be the universe’s way of telling you something. That’s what happened to my next guest. Lisi Lerch started her company in the Spring of 2001 while working full-time in the recruiting office at Cornell University. Her brand initially offered classic Kentucky Derby hats that she was inspired to create due to the lack of affordable women’s hats she saw in the marketplace. A few years later, she decided to test the waters and dabble in jewelry-making, which became an instant obsession.

Lisi’s advice to entrepreneurs is to not think too much into it and just do it. Life is too short so dive in and take on each problem as they come. Plan A most likely won’t work out so it’s best to always have a Plan B, Plan C, and so on.

Listen in to our fun conversation to hear about the celebrity bridal shower Lisi and her team attended and created personalized hats for. So much fun!

Check out all of Lisi’s fabulous products at www.lisilerch.com.

Episode #47: The Many Benefits of Intermittent Fasting | Interview with Laurie Lewis

IG FB Feed image.png

Welcome back, Warriors. We all want to look and feel our best but it’s a struggle sometimes, especially when we hit 40 and the years leading up to menopause. In this episode, my guest and I are discussing the many benefits of intermittent fasting as a way to help. Laurie Lewis is an intermittent fasting coach and author, who while going through menopause dealt with brain fog, lack of balance, memory loss, and the sudden gain of 50 pounds of stubborn hormonal fat. She tried everything she knew to feel better, and the methods that worked in the past made no difference. After four years of struggle, Laurie stumbled upon Intermittent Fasting and started fasting that very same day. The menopausal fog lifted in less than one week, she had more energy and felt more “like herself.” She lost 51 pounds in 15 months and has kept it off for years!

Now, at 57-years old, Laurie has turned her personal success into the premier thriving Intermittent Fasting coaching business. As a certified health coach (Institute for Integrative Nutrition) she combines her knowledge of nutrition with deep research and practice of Time Restricted Eating. Laurie guides her clients with a dream come true -- eat the foods you love and enjoy the rest of your life feeling vibrantly well.

Learn more about Laurie at www.FastForwardWellness.com and check out her book on Amazon Celebrating Your Vibrant Future, Intermittent Fasting for Women 44 to Forever. You can also find her on Facebook @FastWithLaurie and on Instagram @fast_forward_wellness.

Episode #45: Love Heals All - Body, Mind, & Spirit | Interview with Deepa Mehta

IG FB Feed image.png

Hey there, Warriors! Welcome back to another episode of the Suburban Warrior podcast. I am excited to dive into today’s conversation with another amazing Suburban Warrior, coming to us all the way from Malibu, California. I really enjoyed this conversation with Deepa Mehta, where we discussed one of my favorite topics, the healing arts. While we all do different things, our mission is very much the same, which is to empower others to live their best lives, really understand and nourish ourselves, and know we all have this infinite potential inside of us.

Growing up in a household that fused scientific, natural, and spiritual knowledge, at a young age Deepa developed a love of using this knowledge to help others. Her mission is to be a continual student of the healing arts in order to better help treat and nourish the body, mind, and the spirit as one and to support others in their healing journeys.

Deepa uses her knowledge, intuition, and training of energy (reiki), food, nutrition, yoga, movement, meditation, and various other modalities to assist others in working through physical, emotional, or any other types of blocks/issues. Over the years, her tool belt has grown, and so has her love of nourishing and nurturing others. Her passion is to help people achieve their greatest expression of self, attain optimal health, and feel nourished- mind, body, and soul.

To learn more about Deepa and her offerings you can visit her website www.lovedeepa.com, connect with her on Instagram @lovedeepa, and find her YouTube channel at OmMade Kitchen

Kirstin Day has more than 18 years of experience as a senior executive in the fashion industry in New York City.  She is a mom of two, an avid equestrian, and a lover of art and music.  Mental health has always been her passion, since struggling with an eating disorder, depression, and anxiety in her teens.

Episode #36: Surviving 9/11 and Breast Cancer Why Your Mindset Matters Interview with Tracy Coyle

IG FB Feed image.png

Welcome back to this week’s episode of the Suburban Warrior podcast. Our next guest is a true survivor and in my opinion, the epitome of a Suburban Warrior! My dear friend Tracy Coyle is a survivor and warrior for many reasons.  First, she has survived being my “ride or die” for the last 24 years.  We met the very first day of school, freshman year in college, and have been friends and sisters since.  After college, like many others, she headed to NYC to fulfill her dreams.  She worked for Morgan Stanley in one of the most iconic buildings in the world, the World Trade Center.  Little did she know, just a few years into her career, she would survive something more horrific than any of us could imagine, the 9/11 attacks.

Fast forward 20 years, and she once again had to face another attack. This one was with a breast cancer diagnosis. I am beyond thrilled that my best friend in the world is here today to share her story of survival with us. Tracy is a wife, a working mom to 2 amazing daughters, and has beat cancer in the last year. I can’t wait for everyone to hear her story and how keeping a positive mindset has helped her get through it all.

Connect with her on Instagram @tracywcoyle and on Facebook @Tracy Werther Coyle. Follow me on IG @_suburban_warrior and leave a comment on what you thought of this episode. We’ll see you next week with another Suburban Warrior story.

What’s up, Warriors! Welcome back to the Suburban Warrior podcast. As a mindset coach, I think about how every little action in life we do matters. How every single thing we do on this earth matters. My guest today has truly made it her mission to help make the earth a better and cleaner place for all of us. Gwenn Nolan is the founder of Mother Compost, a composting service that began operation on the Main Line of Philadelphia in 2018. 

As a wife and mother of 3 children, Gwen knew how much food her family was wasting by throwing it in the trash. This never sat well with her and she felt compelled to do something about it. So in addition to her full-time job, she started Mother Compost. Through service and education, Gwenn and her team empower members of the community to make sustainable choices. Mother Compost makes composting simple for those short on time or space. Gwenn also enjoys speaking at schools & businesses to spread the word about the benefits of composting as well as teaching practical composting basics to help home composters.

You can learn more about Mother Compost by going to www.MotherCompost.com. She is also on Facebook @MotherCompost and Instagram @MotherCompost, and if you’re local to the Philadelphia area check out Mother Compost’s subscription service and start composting!

Episode #34: From CPA to Soupified Overcoming Your Fear to Follow Your Passion Interview with Michele Di Pietro

Welcome back, Warriors! So, who’s hungry? Anyone? I am really excited for this episode of the Suburban Warrior Podcast because we are talking about something we all know and love...FOOD! My guest is Michele Di Pietro, an entrepreneur, chef, culinary consultant, food writer, cookbook author, blogger, and creator of Mangia With Michele. She was raised in an Italian-American family in southern New Jersey, where her culinary education began with a collection of relatives as teachers in a household where food and cooking were central, daily household activities.

Michele started her professional career as a Certified Public Accountant at a top New York City firm, but eventually found her true calling as she worked and traveled in Europe, experiencing some of the world’s finest cuisines. She left the financial world for the professional kitchen and, once fully immersed in the food industry, quickly discovered that her knowledge of numbers and CPA skills came in handy for recipe development and culinary project management.

Michele just released her first cookbook called SOUPified: Soups Inspired by Your Favorite Dishes, a whimsical and fun collection of soup recipes that were inspired by classic dishes that have been transformed into spoonable, bowl form, while still holding true to their core soul and spirit. The recipes are comfort food at its finest—hearty compilations of flavor, color, and texture, many of which are meals in and of themselves.
