Confronting OJ Simpson with Kim Goldman Jun 12, 2019

Show notes

It’s been 25 years since Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown were murdered. Every year on June 12th, networks, 24-hour news channels and social media outlets quote Kim Goldman in short soundbites meant to captivate listeners and viewers, not to share the real story of those who continue to live with the impact of the murders.

This year is different.

Kim – who some of you may also know as my co-host of a previous podcast I hosted – is taking her story into her own hands, launching a brand new podcast you definitely want to listen to. In confronting OJ Simpson, Kim sits down with prosecutors, investigators, and witnesses who never got to speak and jurors who voted not guilty. In this 10-part series, Kim takes you on a journey as she reclaims and reflects on the part of her life that was changed permanently.

Kim is an advocate, a speaker and a multiple NY Times best selling author. But most of all, I’m honored to call her my friend.

In this episode:

Kim reveals the catalyst for launching the podcast
Who she speaks to in the 10-episode series
The people who surprised her along the way
The witness we never heard from during the case
The ultimate goal behind the podcast (it's not what you may think)
What it means to her to Forty Thrive and how she embraces life over 40

Why Forty Thrive Came to Be Jun 06, 2019

Show notes

Every once in a while you meet someone who stops you in your tracks and forces you to take notice. That's what happened to me when I first met Jennifer Tracy. Jen was a guest at The Self Care Project, an event I co-hosted in late 2018. Here I was, standing on the stage, watching the ladies in front of me receive all of the gifts our incredible speakers were sharing. Jennifer was light a ray of light, embracing the day like no one else. I knew I needed to meet this woman and hear her story.

Well you are in for a real treat! In this first-time-ever pod swap, the Forty Thrive podcast is being hosted by Jennifer Tracy, host of the MILF podcast. And yes, that also means you should head over to the MILF podcast and listen to this week's episode, hosted by yours truly!

Special Event

Jennifer Tracy presents her breakthrough podcast, MILF Podcast (that’s Moms I’d Like to Follow) in front of a live audience. Jennifer welcomes several of her MILF guests on stage to openly riff about sex after kids and, well, just sex. There will be bawdy-ness, there will be sexy-ness, and mostly there will be milf-y-ness. Oh, and also some pole dancing. What? Did you really think there wouldn’t be? Come on!

About Jennifer Tracy

Telling women’s stories is at the heart of everything I do. The rich, complex, and sometimes messy lives we lead as women allow us to birth remarkable stories and experiences. And those are the stories that heal us and connect us to one another. We need that more than ever. There is no “village” to raise our kids. We create the village; on the internet; in our kids’ schools. Within these communities, we find the antidote to feeling profound isolation. Providing listeners with the conversations on MILF podcast is a way for me to help mitigate that isolation for moms in all stages of motherhood. At least for one hour.

I never felt so alone as when I was first home from the hospital, by myself with my newborn, and I was certain that I was already failing. No one was telling me that, but no one was there to tell me that I wasn’t. I needed support. I didn’t have it. I didn’t know how to ask for support. This is ultima

What Online Marketing Expert Amy Porterfield Didn't Want You to Know May 01, 2019

Show notes

If you've followed online marketing expert Amy Porterfield for more than five minutes, you know she's constantly tossing out actionable tips and online strategies -- it's her superpower. But as a regular listener of Amy's podcast, I felt something shift in her several months ago. How she showed up on her show started to feel... well, different.

I wondered... is it because she's now over 40?

Did she have a coach or confidante pushing her in this new direction?

Was she tired of hiding behind who she thought she should be, instead of who she really is?

Yes, yes, and yes.

Amy shares the pivot she's taken in her life, both in front of the camera and behind it. Plus, hear how her friends called her out for being one Amy privately, and another when showing up in business.

Click here to download...

Amy Porterfield is an online marketing expert and host of the top-ranked business podcast, Online Marketing Made Easy. But before the multiple 7-figure revenues and 250,000+ loyal subscribers…she was a self-proclaimed corporate “yes” girl. She shares how the time she took notes (at a separate table, mind you) for personal development guru Tony Robbins and a table full of men working in marketing that she discovered she wanted a piece of the action.

But it wasn't all smooth sailing when Amy decided to break out on her own. It wasn't until she built a successful business filled with consistent clients that she realized she actually haaaaated what she was doing and made a pivot.

That brings us today when she's killing it in the online game and even expanding her team and creating big goals for the future.

Plus, Amy shares what "Forty Thrive" means to her.

Random Amy facts:

• She authored one of those big yellow “Dummies” books all about Facebook.

• She was named by Forbes as one of the Top 50 Social Media Power Influencers

• She can’t get enough of The Real Housewives.

• She's embarrassingly obsessed with her dog, Scout.

• And she can be found playing Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin” on repeat.
