Special Episode: Why We’re Over It + How To Amplify Black Voices On and Offline With Jessica Jones and Wendy Lopez of Food Heaven Jul 02, 2020

This week we’re doing something a little different. I’m sharing part of an episode from Food Heaven (The Podcast) with Jessica Jones and Wendy Lopez.

Here’s a description of the podcast from Jessica and Wendy, “In the past few days, weâ€™ve been hit up by countless publications, podcasts, and influencers asking us to be on their platforms to do a podcast interview, host an IG live, or have a conversation on racism. Oftentimes, these requests come with a ridiculously tight turnaround, which feels really inconsiderate. Weâ€™re human beings. We have lives. Believe it or not, weâ€™re actually busy. Also, thereâ€™s a lot of emotional labor and trauma involved in being vulnerable and sharing our experiences with racism.

PLUS! Weâ€™ve contributed to COUNTLESS articles (go to our press page) about inclusivity and social justice before it was trending. Weâ€™ve also done so. many. podcast episodes on these topics (check our BLM highlight for some of the most recent episodes). The work is out there. If you have looked at some of the work, and still want to collaborate, make an effort to be more mindful about how you reach out + what your asks are.

In this weekâ€™s episode, we go in on why weâ€™re frustrated and exhausted. But we also make sure to include some action items on what you (black, POC, white) can do to amplify black voices both on and offline.

After you listen to this snippet, head over to Food Heaven to listen to the full episode (and pick another episode you’re excited about, too). I know you’ll love Jessica and Wendy’s openness and honesty about all things wellness.

Make the pickled chiles: In a small pot, bring the chiles, vinegar, and maple syrup to a boil. Remove from the heat and let the chiles sit for at least 5 minutes or overnight. Store the pickled chiles in the fridge in their pickling liquid for up to 1 month.

Make the stir-fry: In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond butter, garlic, tamari, lime zest and juice, and 1â„4 cup of water.

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over high heat. SauteÌ the onion until just soft, about 1 minute. Add the broccoli to the pan in an even layer and let it sear, without stirring, for 2 minutes. Give the mixture a toss and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid burning (though some charring is okay!). Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, along with the cabbage and ginger. Cook until just tender, while stirring, about 3 minutes. Add the quinoa and cook for 2 minutes to lightly toast it, then stir in the almond butter mixture. Fold in the grated carrots and spinach and cook, while stirring, until the spinach has just wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, taste, and season with salt, if desired. Divide the stir-fry among 4 bowls and sprinkle with the cilantro, scallions, and pickled chiles strained from their liquid.

One Part Podcast Community: Where are they now?

Since the beginning of the podcast personally I became a mother for the second time and professionally, I started what I consider my life project! An online platform dedicated to the Archaeologies and Heritage of Africa and during this year I will start my own podcast on archaeology. Thank you for your inspiration and coaching! -SF

Since listening to the podcast and being inspired by all the bold leaps of faith you and the guests have taken, I have moved to a new city in a new state where I knew no one. I’ve now been here for almost a year, and it has been the best decision I ever made! -SK

I went fully plant based and then vegan, became a team supervisor at my work, completed my undergrad and got into a highly competitive internship. One Part was a major inspiration for me about a year ago and your guests have been so uplifting! The prevalence of female/women guests has also been hugely helpful for me as a young woman. -SC

Hi! I’ve been a vegetarian for 10 years and I became vegan last year, I’ve started graduate school to get a Master’s in Biology, I’m engaged to be married this year, and I have a wealth of great resources from the guests you have on whether they’re chefs, wellness people, or otherwise. -JF

I left hormonal birth control behind in order to find a more holistic method for figuring out my hormones! No regrets since doing so. Also, currently completing my first year of undergrad. Much love to the pod for inspiring me to LIVE outside of the box. -CG

Threw away my birth control, adapted a more plant based lifestyle and got a promotion at work that is more in line with my career goals . Iâ€™ve also met some amazing people and killer brands through this page/the pod!! -AH

I started listening to the pod when I was studying abroad in Copenhagen and didnâ€™t know anyone in the city. Since then I graduated from college and started grad school! I am still in the process of figuring out exactly where I want my career to go, but vegan cooking and baking has been a consistent source of grounding and inspiration. And One Part Pod was a big part of what incited my passion for it in the first place! -MW

Since listening to the podcast I planned for and quit my job on one of the top rated tv shows that was causing me so much stress and making me physically and mentally unhealthy and am now taking several months off to focus on my own health and happiness. This podcast has really inspired me to put myself first instead of my career. -AB

Wrote Coseena! And started my own company! -MA

I stepped out of a secure government job to explore my creativity and pursue a career that I am passionate about! -LB

I started my own culinary nutrition business, Fresh Things First , and am currently getting my certificate to be an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. Thanks for sharing so many unique guests that constantly provide inspiration, new points of view and personal stories! -JPH

Iâ€™m still new to your podcast, but Iâ€™ve been plowing thru them and loving every minute. Since listening, I have begun a self love journey and incorporating it into my exercise. Iâ€™ve NEVER been so kind to myself, and itâ€™s really life changing. Rather than punishing myself for not being where I want it to be, Iâ€™ve been moving for enjoyment. This has been a stepping stone for more things in my life like eating more plants, simplifying my skin care (thanks to Adina), and preparing to ditch my birth control. All of this is working towards my goal of having a baby soon baby. -CWB

Followed my passion and left my part-time agency job to pursue my private therapy practice FULL TIME so that I could serve women struggling with fertility and couples building their family in modern ways. OH—AND STARTED A PODCAST! -KR

I did a Kickstarter campaign + launched my own natural skincare business with my mom, but you already knew that. -MH

Erica and I discuss mental illness + pregnancy, how inclusivity shouldn’t be so radical, the polarization of motherhood, how no birth experience is the “right” one, and why every woman deserves reproductive health guidance (even for those never having children).

{ Sweet Potato, Lentil, and Ginger Soup } by Erica Chidi Cohen from Nurture: Serves 4

This twenty-minute soup is fiber-rich and soothing. During pregnancy and after birth, your intestinal muscle capacity is reduced, and remains so during the first two to three months postpartum. Adding more fiber to your diet will help shift that sluggishness and keep things moving. Make a batch or two and freeze it.

1 tablespoon organic coconut oil 2 tablespoons fresh turmeric root, grated or finely diced 4 tablespoons ginger root, grated or finely diced 1 cup [200 g] red lentils, rinsed and picked through 5 garnet yams, peeled and roughly chopped 6 cups [1.4 L] vegetable stock 1/4 cup [60 ml] organic coconut milk 1 bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped 1 teaspoon salt Black pepper

Melt the coconut oil in a heavy medium pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the turmeric, ginger, and lentils. Sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, until fragrant, then add the yams. Toss until the yams are coated and slightly caramelized, 3 to 5 minutes.

Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer uncovered until the lentils and yams are tender. Remove from the heat, then mix in the coconut milk and cilantro. Season with the salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Last week we learned that if you ever have to get a spinal tap, call a cab or wait for someone to pick you up. I also shared the complicated feelings I felt about hiring the photography team for the book and what that meant for not only my wallet, but my ego.

This week, I finish recipe testing and head to LA for the cookbook shoot. And then something I could have never expected happened. Something that changed everything.

Episode 2: Floods + Extensions Feb 08, 2017

Last week was a big week, the week I got my book deal. After months of back and forth, with contract negotiations I signed the contract. And then almost threw up opening my first advance check. And DID throw up after meeting with publishers in NY. If you’re starting here, I wouldn’t. Go back and start from the beginning.

When I left you at the end of the episode, I was about to move to Charleston after living in Chicago for nearly 16 years. Remember, I was going to start my book as soon we arrived and I could unpack my kitchen boxes. But it didn’t really go as I expected...

THE COOKBOOK DEAL | Episode 01: Getting The Deal Feb 02, 2017

In the last episode, we covered the basics of getting an agent and writing a proposal. If you haven’t heard it, go back.

This week, I’m in New York. meeting with publishers. Trying to make the deal happen. This is also the episode that you’ll begin to discover just how weird I am about money. Which may or may not be a reoccurring theme of this podcast. It may. Ok it is. Go listen.

THE COOKBOOK DEAL | Episode 00: The Agent + Proposal Feb 02, 2017

Welcome to The Cookbook Deal, Also The Weirdest Year Of My Life, a podcast series brought to you by One Part Podcast. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be taking you through the entire year I spent making my cookbook, One Part Plant. I’ve recorded the entire process, all the ins and outs, the ups and the meltdowns, and so many things in between. Things that I could have never expected. We’ll be getting into that weirdness and also the actual process of making this book in the coming episodes. I recorded it all. And I mean, ALL.

But in this first episode, it’s more of an introduction. I wanted to give you a little background into what needs to happen before you’re able to get a book deal. Because those are the questions I get asked most. How do you find an agent? How much do you pay her? How do you make a proposal? How long does it take from writing the proposal to getting the deal? And the most common question after someone finds out I’m writing a book for a major publisher…how’d YOU do that?

I thought this would be a good place to start. So hang tight if you came here for the drama and emotional moments, those will be happening very soon, and often. I promise. As in the next episode.

Introducing THE COOKBOOK DEAL Podcast Feb 01, 2017

In this new podcast series, I’ll be taking you through the roller coaster year I spent pitching and making my cookbook, One Part Plant.

With interviews and recordings that span the entire process, I documented the ins and out of how she got the deal and what it’s really like to make a book – from working with an agent and publishing house to managing advance checks and having near meltdowns over timelimes, budgets, and more. And she does it all while navigating unbelievable (and very personal) twists and turns along the way.

Episode 70: Asking For Money, Standing Your Ground, And Paying It Forward With Emily Fiffer Of Botanica Dec 08, 2016

This is the last episode of the season. I’m taking a mini-break, which actually isn’t a break, because I’m going to be working on the new podcast series during that time. So it’s more of a you-won’t-hear-from-me-for-a-few-weeks break.

The new podcast has an official title! It’s called “The Cookbook Deal / Also The Weirdest Year Of My Life” and will be a 7-episode series launching the second week of January. I’ve recorded the entire year of making a cookbook – from getting the deal to recipe testing dramarama to trying to finish my manuscript during a hurricane. I recorded it all. And actually, I’m still recording.

I’ll be giving you the first episode in the OPP feed, but then it will live in The Cookbook Deal feed for the remainder of the season. If you’re signed up for the OPP newsletter, you’ll be notified at soon as it launches. You can do that here, if you’re not signed up already.

OK, today’s guest! I’m talking to Emily Fiffer, co-founder of Botanica (the online food magazine and soon-to-be restaurant).

Emily and I talk about what tough lessons she’s learned from opening a restaurant, the not-so-warm-welcome she’s received from some men in the restaurant industry, the importance of being aware of your strengths and weaknesses, and the celebrity she’d most like to watch eating her food (yes, in a creepy way).

Episode 69: Aligning With The Real YOU + Using Criticism As Fuel With Amanda Chantal Bacon of Moon Juice Dec 01, 2016

Today’s guest is Amanda Chantal Bacon of Moon Juice. I’ll have to say that this is one of my favorite interviews of the season – because of a big piece of advice that Amanda gave. I almost cancelled therapy for the week because of it. It resonated with me that much.

Amanda and I discuss how her wellness journey began with an intervention at a grocery store as a child, how (as an introvert) she’s able to recharge with her busy schedule, why she actually believes triggering negative criticism can be a good thing, and how we all have our own superpower within us.

Episode 66: Hustling vs. Sleep + The Process Of Grief With Jennifer Snyder Nov 03, 2016

Jennifer Syder is this week’s guest. She’s a writer, editor, and the host of the Creating Your Own Path Podcast. This episode got a little raw and emotional, and I’m so grateful that Jennifer was willing to share what she’s going through right now with the hope that it might help someone else.

In this episode, we discuss what it’s like growing up with a disability, how she learned that the process of grief is different for everyone, why it’s important to cut yourself some slack during difficult times, and how it’s OK if sometimes you just want to go to bed.

Episode 65: Ashlae Warner of Alchemy Edibles on Doing Business With Mary Jane Oct 27, 2016

This podcast guest has been here before. But I just can’t get enough. This week, I talk (again) to Ashlae Warner of…well, a couple different brands. In the episode, Ashlae reveals the new business and brand she’s been keeping secret for a year. And it’s pretty exciting.

We talk about how she felt blogging wasn’t a sustainable career in the long term (anymore) and what she decided to do about it, the lengthy-red-tapey process of starting her new business, why she’s kept it secret, and inside scoop on the other brand that has emerged from starting her new business.

Episode 64 (Part Two): Making Periods Safer, Healthier, and Look Kinda Cool with Molly Hayward Of Cora Oct 20, 2016

A couple of months ago, I received emails from two brands that are changing the game in the feminine-hygiene category. Both were interested in being on the podcast and both were selling the same kind of product (natural tampons). But they were doing it in such different ways, that I couldn’t decide which one to interview. They were both so innovative (and looked cool, too). So I didn’t choose. I interviewed both. Two interviews about tampons?! Yes.

In part two, I interview the co-founder of Cora, Molly Hayward. Molly and I discuss how she found her partner and how it wasn’t who she expected, the big difference between natural and organic cotton products, landing a deal with Target after only being in business for six months, and why it’s her mission to make sure that every woman on this planet has access to safe menstrual products.

Episode 63: Beyond Body Positivity + Becoming A Disrupter With Jada Sezer Oct 13, 2016

SO excited about today’s guest! I’m talking to model, designer, and body positivity and mental health advocate Jada Sezer.

Jada and I discuss how her beginnings studying childhood psychology fueled her current mission, the difference between creating a brand and a company, why you need the right people to surround you to thrive, why she believes the body positivity movement is only the first step in empowering women, and how we must work on policies and become disrupters in order to create real change.

Episode 62: Creating Your Wellness Toolbox + Understanding Lyme Disease With Ally Hilfiger Oct 06, 2016

I’ve seen Lyme disease pop up more and more in the news over the last few months – and wanted to learn more about it. The first thing I did was pick up Ally Hilfiger’s book (Bite Me: How Lyme Disease Stole My Childhood, Made Me Crazy, and Almost Killed Me). The subtitle of the book really grabbed my attention. But it also made me question if this was the work of a publisher doing their job to make me want to buy the book. I wondered if Lyme disease was really that serious. It is. After reading Ally’s book and talking with her, I now understand the power of this disease and how underestimated it is by so many. It can not only affect the physical body of its sufferers, but can alter their mental state, too.

Ally and I discuss why her Lyme disease went undetected for years, how she landed in a psych ward at the age of eighteen because of it, how she began to heal by incorporating a new set of tools into her life, what you can do to protect yourself from Lyme disease, and the biggest lesson she’s learned from living with a chronic illness.

Episode 61: Burnout, Stress, and How To Recover + Reset With McKel Hill Of Nutrition Stripped Sep 29, 2016

I really wanted to have McKel Hill of Nutrition Stripped on the podcast. But I also didn’t only want to talk about her cookbook (trying to mix it up…per your requests!). So I told her that if she came on, we’d need to explore topics outside of her new book. She was super down for this and knew exactly what she wanted to talk about…burnout and stress.

In this episode, McKel and I talk about how she experienced an extreme case of burnout and what she did to recover from it, how she’s incorporated mantras into her workout routine, what the heck mantras are (if you’re new to them), why working out isn’t always the best for your body when you’re stressed, and what she’s doing to stop the comparison game in her life and career.

Episode 60: How One Person CAN Create Change + Planting As Many Seeds As Possible With Francesca Kennedy of IX Style Sep 19, 2016

When Francesca Kennedy reached out to me about being on the podcast, I took one look at the video she sent and knew I HAD to talk to her. This woman is doing amazing things and 100% creating change in peoples’ lives through her brand, IX Style.

Francesca and I talk about how a trip back to Guatemala led her to start her company, the difference between “luck” and “passion for what you’re meant to be doing,” why it’s important to know of all the key players in your industry (and how to track them down), planting as many seeds and ideas as possible, and why getting a “no” doesn’t seem to phase her.

Episode 59: Creating Space + Letting Your Guard Down + Kundalini Explained With Ra Ma Kaur Sep 11, 2016

I’ve been dabbling in Kundalini for the last few years. A YouTube video here. An OnDemand class there. But recently I’ve gotten pretty serious about the practice – I now go to classes and even started buying books on the topic. I haven’t really shared about it here, because it looks pretty weird from the outside and definitely sounds really weird when you try to explain it. This site is all about taking one part at time and Kundalini felt like a lot of parts at a time. But the more I do it, the better I feel. Things shift inside me. My brain feels clearer. And my mood is not as, um, moody. So I felt like it was time to share. I also realized that what seems weird to me might completely be your norm. What’s that old saying about “assuming”? Yes, I was kind of being an ass about it.

So I reached out to one of my favorite teachers, Ra Ma Kaur, to explain all things Kundalini. She truly knows her stuff. And, by the way, has the most soothing voice while talking about all that stuff she knows.

Ra Ma and I discuss Kundalini yoga (what it is, how it works, and why it’s about to “pop” in the mainstream), how we can tune into our not-so-positive habits and begin to change them, why it’s important to explore new ways to let our guards down, and how this cult-looking (it’s not one) form of yoga is different than anything you’ve ever experienced – and just might change your life.

Episode 57: Confronting Past Traumas + Chinese Medicine Explained With Giselle Wasfie of REMIX Sep 01, 2016

This week, I’m talking to Giselle Wasfie. She’s a former hip hop journalist and current Chinese-medicine practitioner (acupuncturist-herbalist). She’s also the founder of the aromatherapy and beauty line REMIX by Giselle Wasfie. As I mentioned on the episode with Katrina Jane, this season I want to cover topics that sometimes have a little mystery surrounding them or lifestyles we think we know about…but might not fully understand. This is one of those episodes.

Giselle and I discuss Chinese Medicine (what it is, how it works, and why it’s still not widely accepted as “real” medicine), how she knew being a journalist wasn’t her career path in life, her advice on looking at past traumas in a new light, and her biggest (and easy) tip on how to deal with toxic people and negative interactions in our lives.

Giselle’s notes: I like to spray it pre-meditation or I’ve sold bottles to yoga teachers who use it before class for “grounding” while keeping the energy “uplifted” and flowing. I also use it in the clinic a lot (in between patients) to keep the mood upbeat and positive. Avoid using during pregnancy and avoid getting product in eyes.

Episode 56: Honoring Your Past, Present, And Future With Grace Bonney Of In The Company Of Women Aug 25, 2016

Grace Bonney is back. You might remember her from a Freak Your Week appearance this past winter. But those episodes are short. And I needed MORE GRACE. So I asked her to come back to talk about her latest project (her new book, In The Company Of Women).

Grace and I talk about how the lack of diversity in the media inspired her latest project, how she battles to find the balance between full speed and reverse, the biggest professional struggle she’s dealing with right now, and how she broke one of her biggest rules to create a brand new project – which she’s announcing for the first time here!

Episode 55: The Life Of A Clairvoyant Medium With Katrina-Jane Aug 04, 2016

On this season of the podcast, we’re going to mix it up a little. Yes, you’ll still get to hear from your favorite authors, health + wellness gurus, and foodie friends…but you’ll also be hearing episodes from people you might not expect. I, for one, want to learn more about the people doing compelling things that aren’t in my Instagram feed or popping up on the usual blogroll. And I also want to learn/share more about ideas, concepts, practices, and careers that we might not quite understand or have questions about (and maybe even a little skepticism).

Today we’re kicking that off with author and clairvoyant medium Katrina-Jane.

Katrina-Jane and I discuss the difference between being a clairvoyant, a psychic, and a medium, how traumatic events in her childhood shaped who is she and the career she has today, finding her true love, and the event that finally made her feel that she belonged.

Episode 54: Asking For What You Want With Julia Turshen Of Small Victories Jul 28, 2016

This week, I’m talking to the incredible food writer and cookbook author Julia Turshen. Julia and I cover a lot of what you might expect in an interview with a popular food writer, but it was the not-food talk that really made this episode one of my favorites.

Julia and I discuss how she knew she was ready to write her own cookbook (after co-authoring almost a dozen books), the importance of asking for what you want and being credited for your work, one of the most important rules in her marriage (her wife is Grace Bonney), and how being an active listener is an important first step in creating change.

Your support really helped make this book happen, and I wanted to give you a little something in return. And this little something is pretty special, because Jensen Karp is this week’s guest. Jensen is a writer, comedian, and old friend who once had an intervention with me about wearing fewer capes (and by fewer, I mean none).

Jensen and I talk about his million-dollar rap-record deal, how he dealt with that record never being released, the health scare that inspired him to write his new book (Kanye West Owes Me Three Hundred Dollars: And Other True Stories Of A White Rapper Who Almost Made It Big), and whyhe believes that when you hit a dead end there’s always a U-turn.

Episode 52: Why Healthy Eating Doesn’t Solve All Your Problems + Being An Introvert + Hustling Hard With Laura Miller Of Raw. Vegan. Not Gross. May 02, 2016

Laura Miller is here! You may know her from crazy food ensembles, popular Tastemade videos, or her upcoming book (Raw. Vegan. Not Gross.), but what you might not know is that she struggled lots personally and professionally to get to where she is today. Laura gets candid about some of these issues and what she did to get to the other side.

Laura and I talk about how she went through a dozen jobs before landing a career in food, how she became the trojan horse of introverts, why she believes good food/diet isn’t the magic pill cure-all for being truly healthy, how she’s dealt with the mean girls and boys of the Internet, and how she’s helping other women with her #froobs (food + boobs) community.

Episode 51: The Last Great Female Health Taboo + What You Can Do About It With Shannon Cohn Of Endo What? Mar 23, 2016

Surprise! New podcast. I know we never release mid-week, but this topic and guest were too important not to share right away.

I’m talking with filmmaker Shannon Cohn about Endo What?, her new documentary. This new film not only gives all the facts and information that your doctor never told you about endometriosis, but encourages and inspires women to be more empowered with their healthcare choices to treat it. And it is beyond powerful.

Shannon and I discuss why more women with endometriosis aren’t diagnosed sooner, how her own battle with the disease inspired her to make this film, the impact environmental toxins play with endo, the number one diet change you can make to possibly help manage endo symptoms, and why women’s below-the-waist health issues are the last great health taboo.

Episode 50: Getting Your Hands Dirty + Pursuing What You Love Despite The Obstacles With Celestine Maddy Of A Wilder Life Feb 29, 2016

Episode 50!!! Ok, technically there are more than 50 episodes if you count Freak Your Weeks…but this is the 50th long-form interview. Which is just nuts. Before I get to the guest, I want to thank you for being so supportive of the podcast. I love the cool club we’ve created together!

Our 50th guest is Celestine Maddy of the new book A Wilder Life! You got a sneak peak of it last week, and now you’ll get to hear all the nitty gritty details of how making this book went down.

Celestine and I talk about her life before she ventured outside (there were lots of video games involved), how getting your hands dirty can make you feel more grounded, why she decided to take a break from her magazine (Wilder Quarterly), and what nature, the gym, and Khloe Kardashian have in common (you might be surprised).

Episode 49: Living With Misophonia In A Noisy World With Jeffrey S. Gould of Quiet Please Feb 08, 2016

So technically I’m supposed to be on “hiatus” from the podcast while I finish my book. But I just couldn’t stay away from you. Especially when I’ve just recorded an interview on a topic that so many of you have said you wanted to know more about.

When I first talked about misophonia (the hatred of sound) on Episode 30 with Ashlae Warner, I got tons of messages from listeners saying they felt such relief knowing they weren’t alone in either experiencing misophonia themselves or having to deal with someone who had it. So when I saw there was a new documentary about it, I knew I had to get the filmmaker (Jeffrey S. Gould) on the pod to give us the full scoop on this condition…and share everything he learned while making the film.

Jeffrey and I discuss what misophonia is and isn’t; how sufferers deal with the anger, sadness, and guilt that comes with the condition; how his own sensitivities to sound led him to create his new film, Quiet Please; his tips on creating coping mechanisms; and why he says the grocery store can turn him into Charles Manson.

Episode 48: The Real Anti-Diet, Giving Yourself Permission To Eat, And Finding Closure (Or Not) With Kelsey Miller Of Big Girl Jan 11, 2016

I know that the title of this podcast is long. And I wanted to make it 20 times longer, because we covered so much great stuff in this episode. This week, I’m talking to Kelsey Miller. She’s a senior writer at Refinery 29, creator of The Anti-Diet Project, and author of the new book, Big Girl: How I Gave Up Dieting And Got A Life.

Kelsey and I talk about what it’s truly like inside the head of someone with disordered eating, what led her to start the Anti-Diet Project, what “giving yourself permission to eat” actually means and what it doesn’t, the traumatic childhood experience that shaped the way she saw her body, how she hopes speaking out about this experience might open the door for others, and why she doesn’t exactly believe in the idea of closure.

The Things That Freaked My Week Micro Podcast With Devin Kirk of Jayson Home Jan 08, 2016

Have you ever become friends with someone right before you move away to a new city? Someone that you really connect with and makes you laugh and just gets you? And you ask yourself (and them), “WHHHHHY have we been living in this city so long and not known each other??” It’s sorta like when you were little and you met your new best friend at summer camp and then summer was over and you had to go your separate ways. And while you might be thinking about one another, you never really talk again. Well, that was then. And now, Skype exists. So let me introduce you to this week’s guest.

It’s Devin Kirk. He’s the VP of Merchandising (which means he gets to travel the world picking out cool stuff) at Jayson Home. If you’ve ever picked up a magazine and seen the couch of your dreams…chances are it’s credited to Jayson Home. I met him right before I left Chicago. He’s the best for 100 reasons, but mainly because he references Dolly Parton and Oprah stories in the same episode.

Listen in to hear us discuss the things we had to eat, the people we thought were neat, and all the things that made us say sheeeeet. And then find all the links below.

Episode 47: Overcoming The Fear Of Being Alone + Creating A Space With Meaning With Anne Sage Of Sage Living Dec 07, 2015

After reading the intro to Anne Sage’s new book, Sage Living: Decorate For The Life You Want, I immediately reached out to her and asked her to be on the podcast. It was that good. Lucky for all of us, she said yes.

In this episode, I ask Anne to dive deeper into that intro, and she shares how she was able to overcome the fear of living/being alone, how she got through both a love and business divorce, what steps she took to live a happier and healthier life, and how she began to understand (and wrote a book about) the relationship between the spaces we live in and our interior lives. Sounds heavy…but there was lots of laughing, too.

Episode 46: Omission vs. Remission + Healing Through Food (Even When It Seemed Impossible) With Shari Koolik Leidich Of Two Moms In The Raw Nov 23, 2015

Two Moms In The Raw’s Shari Koolik Leidich is this week’s guest. I’m excited for about a million reasons, but I’ll break it down to my top three…

1. Her products are DELICIOUS and were my savior when I changed my diet. 2. Her cookbook is one the best of this year. 3. Her enthusiasm, sense of humor, and just plain Shari-ness is incredible (you’ll hear what I mean when you listen to the episode).

Shari and I discuss how she was blindsided by her diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, how she took her health into her own hands after conventional medicine wasn’t working, the company that launched as a result of it, and how she lives a life of omission and not remission. Shari is the real deal.

Episode 45: Jeff Garlin On Why Nothing Good Comes From Ego Oct 19, 2015

Curb Your Enthusiasm. Arrested Development. And now…the One Part Podcast. Huh? Yeah, get excited about this week’s episode.

Jeff Garlin and I discuss how he got involved in the documentary Finding Vivian Maier (and his take on the controversy surrounding her work), the reason he decided to leave his podcast behind, why it’s important to treat positive reviews/comments with the same weight as negative ones (hello, ego!), and his favorite not-really-a-recipe recipe for dessert.

Episode 44: Clip Art, Freelancing, And The Tricky Art Of Instagram With Paul Octavious Oct 12, 2015

I sat down (literally, sat on the ground) with Paul Octavious for this week’s podcast. He hosted my farewell-to-Chicago For Reals Meals (coming later this week!), and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to interview one of my most favorite photographers and creatives out there.

Paul and I discuss how leaving school to care for his grandfather ignited his passion for photography, how getting fired from his first job didn’t turn out so bad, the incredible physical transformation he’s made over the last year, why he’s got a love/hate relationship with Instagram, and his advice on creating authentic work.

This week I’m bringing you a conversation with Adrianna Adarme, creator of popular website A Cozy Kitchen and author of the new book, The Year Of Cozy.

Adrianna and I talk about why she decided to leave her career in the film industry behind, how a speech from David Foster Wallace changed how she approached each day, why she wants people to stop saying they’re busy, and her tips on controlling negative thinking (you might be surprised how she’s doing it).

Episode 42: I’m Having A Book! + Andie Mitchell from It Was Me All Along Sep 21, 2015

That’s right, I’ve got a little literary bun in the oven. I’m cooking up my first cookbook, to be released in Spring 2017! It feels a little surreal, kinda weird, but mainly really, really awesome. There are a hundred reasons why I’m excited, but I’d have to say that getting to work with one of my dream publishers (Harper Wave of the HarperCollins family) is at the very top of the list. Thank you to Harper’s Karen, Julie, and John.

I know you’re supposed to wait until the book comes out to write an acknowledgements page, but I’m not waiting to thank YOU GUYS for always being so supportive of this site and the podcast. You’ve played such a big role in making this happen. And I promise to make you proud. Also, a giant thank you to Sarah (my agent) for always believing in me, no matter what. You are the best. And Celeste, for simply being the coolest.

I’m really hoping to get you involved in this book as much as I can – from helping me test recipes and keeping you up to date on preorder giveaways (you know you like presents) to cooking classes/events. So if you aren’t already signed up for my newsletter, you can do it right here to get all the book details before anyone else. Oh, and you’ll get a free mini-cookbook download to get you started. ** Thanks to Alex for putting a book in my belly (via Photoshop) and Jena for taking my photo!

NOW this week’s podcast! We’re doing things a little differently this week and have a two-part podcast for you. Not everything can be one part…

In part one, I bring back Adina Grigore, author of Skin Cleanse, to talk about my big book news. She was a total weirdo about announcing her book, and I never understood why…until now. We talk all about why we’re so damn awkward about it, and she reveals a big announcement of her own.

In part two, I talk to NYT-bestselling author Andie Mitchell. She wrote the incredible memoir It Was Me All Along and is the creator of the popular website Can You Stay For Dinner? She’s the real deal, and I couldn’t wait to sit down and talk with her.

Andie and I discuss her massive weight loss, the depression that surfaced after losing the weight, a useful tool she suggests to manage binge eating and negative thinking, and why your leggings might not be the best friend you thought they were.

WE ARE BACK! Season Two is kicking off with one of my favorite episodes of Season Two. Yeah, I said it. No crystal ball over here, I just know it will be – it’s that good. I’m talking to Beth Kirby. She’s a photographer, creative consultant, stylist, and the creator of the beautiful website Local Milk.

You’ll also hear firsthand what it’s like to truly fall in love. Like, you’ll literally get to hear it. You’ll see what I mean. Go listen, already!

Episode 39: Doing It Because You Love It With Erin Gleeson Of The Forest Feast Jul 09, 2015

It’s the Season One finale of the One Part Podcast! One whole year has gone by since launching the first episode. It’s so crazy! There’s been lots of laughing, some tears, many an F-bomb, and tons of planty recipes.

I cannot thank you all enough for listening, sharing the episodes, tweeting up a storm, and just plain supporting the show. You’ve helped create a cool and thoughtful OPP community that we can all be part of, and I love you all so much for it.

For the finale, I wanted to go big! So I headed to Instagram to ask you who you wanted to hear. There were so many great suggestions (some I’ll for sure be using in Season Two) – but I could only choose one….

Today’s guest is Erin Gleeson from The Forest Feast! She’s cool, a super-talented photographer, a NYT Times best-selling author, and just a freaking nice person. And you know we’re all about nice people around here.

In this episode, Erin and I discuss leaving her career behind in NYC to move to a cabin in the woods, how that move influenced the career she has today, her inspiring approach to creating and maintaining her brand, and her advice on putting your work out there.

Episode 38: Diet Culture, Emotional Eating, And Learning To Love Your Body With Isabel Foxen Duke Jul 02, 2015

In our chat, Isabel and I discuss how she landed in rehab after abusing drugs to control her weight, her path from working in finance to becoming a certified health coach, the problem with our diet culture, and the number one thing she believes you have to change in order to have a healthy relationship with food.

Episode 37: Practice Makes Perfect + Self-Publishing A Book With Dana Shultz of Minimalist Baker Jun 25, 2015

You probably already know that I love Dana Shultz from Minimalist Baker (seen here and here). But like most of my internet girlfriends, we hadn’t ever actually spoken before this podcast. But based on our emails, her Lil Jon and Martin references, and her undying dedication to creating new dairy-free mac & cheese recipes, I knew that we’d hit it off (and we did).

In this episode, Dana and I discuss her decision to ditch the traditional publisher route and self-publish her cookbook, her top tips for creating a website that Google loves, how she’s taken her photography skills to the next level, and the most important thing she believes you need to have a successful website.

Episode 36: Healing After Loss + Protecting Your Online Privacy With Melissa Baswell Williams Jun 18, 2015

On this week’s episode, I talk to Melissa Baswell Williams – the designer and founder of the lifestyle website Bubby & Bean. I had never spoken to or met Melissa before this interview but have always had a lot of love for her. When my brand was just starting, she asked me to be on her site. I had a handful of Instagram followers, not a lot of readers, and was just figuring stuff out. But Melissa didn’t care and still wanted me anyway. She’s sweet like that.

In our talk, Melissa shares for the first time the very personal and intimate details behind the creation of her website, how it helped her cope with a traumatic event in her life, and why she decided to start taking her family’s online privacy seriously.

Episode 35: The Nitty Gritty On Gluten, Oil, And Soy With Dr. Thomas Campbell Of The Campbell Plan Jun 11, 2015

This week’s podcast is pretty special. I had the opportunity to speak with the co-author of one of THE most influential books in health, wellness, and plant-based nutrition. It’s Dr. Thomas Campbell, who cowrote The China Study with his father, Dr. T. Colin Campbell. The book has sold over 1 million copies and inspired the film Forks Over Knives. Their work has transformed thousands of lives across the world, including my own. I’m pretty excited about this one!

Tom and I discuss why he needed to write his new book, The Campbell Plan, his thoughts on the hottest health topics out there – gluten, soy, and oil (you might be surprised to hear what he thinks), raising a healthy family, and the number one thing he says is vital in successfully changing your diet.

One Part Pledge / A Challenge From Rose Lazar Of The Great Lakes Goods Jun 04, 2015

This week I’m talking to one of my biggest art/design idols, Rose Lazar. I admire her so much and couldn’t wait to get her on the podcast. I admire for hundreds of reasons: she’s the best gift-giver I know, she makes all of her products by hand (her own hands) for her company, The Great Lakes Goods, and she loves Drake even more than I do. And that’s a lot.

But the thing I admire most about Rose is that she does exactly what she wants every single day. She only makes what she loves and only sells what she truly cares about. And when you have your own business, that’s not always the easiest thing to do. But she’s mastered it and gives great insight on this episode on exactly how she’s pulled it off.

You’ll have to listen in to hear Rose’s challenge. But whether you decide to take the pledge or not, I’m pretty sure you’ll walk away with a new idol too.

If you decide to take the pledge:

1. Take the pledge and keep it to yourself. Tell no one or maybe just your best friend at dinner. Write it in your diary. Say it out loud to your bathroom mirror. Do you.

2. Take the pledge and share in the comments here. It’s a great place to talk with fellow pledgers. And also a great place to ask any questions you might have about the challenge.

3. Take the pledge and tweet it. Share on Twitter and tag it with #onepartpledge. Challenge someone else you know to take part in it. These things are always easier with friends.

4. Take the pledge and Instagram it. Take a photo of yourself holding up the OPP hand sign (it’s above) or a photo of you doing the challenge. You don’t even have to show your face. Get creative with it. And make sure to tag me, so I see you! #onepartpledge

If you miss a challenge or aren’t ready for it right now, that’s ok. This isn’t like an episode of Game of Thrones. You can miss one and still know what the hell is going on.

Episode 34: Choosing To Live + Finding Your Voice With Sahar Paz May 28, 2015

I talk a lot and have a tendency to overshare. But I’m feeling a little speechless when it comes to describing Sahar Paz. I’ve been sitting in front of my computer for twenty minutes trying to figure out what to say about this incredible woman.

My interview with her was like none I’ve had before. There aren’t many people that have survived what she’s been through. And even fewer people that have survived and then made it their life’s work to help others do the same. She’s one of the most inspiring women I’ve ever talked to, and I’m just so proud to share her story. Hear for yourself why she’s my new superhero.

Episode 33: Overcoming A Business Divorce + Getting Your Happiness In Check With Jessica Zweig Of Simply Be May 21, 2015

This week I’m talking to one of the most driven and successful women I know, Jessica Zweig of Simply Be. A few weeks leading up to this interview, Jessica told me that she really wanted to “get real” during our interview. And that we did.

Jessica and I discuss exactly what we thought of each other the first time we met, the breakdown that led her to one the biggest decisions of her life, leaving her business and coping with a business divorce, finding love outside her “type”, and the best piece of advice her pops gave her on starting a business.

Episode 32: Getting Out Of Your Own Way + Learning To Listen With John Michael Schert May 14, 2015

After ten minutes of meeting John Michael Schert, I asked him to be on the podcast. He didn’t even know I had a podcast, and I didn’t really know anything about him – I just knew that he was awesome.

In this episode, John Michael and I talk about how to get out of your own way, the impact of his mother coming out when he was a teenager, what he learned from being a dancer, and learning to give space to the unknown. Sound heavy? It sorta is. But it’s also one of my favorite episodes yet.

One Part Pledge / A Challenge By Katie Dalebout of The Wellness Wonderland May 07, 2015

Katie Dalebout does a lot. She’s an author, speaker, yoga teacher, podcast host, and the creator of The Wellness Wonderland. After reading that list, you might be thinking “Ooooh, fancy. She’s got it allll figured out.” She doesn’t. And that’s one of the reasons I love Katie so much. She’s very open and real about the fact that she’s constantly working on herself and trying to shift her ideas and patterns.

Because of all that, I thought she’d be a perfect host for this month’s challenge. The funny thing about her challenge is that it changed halfway through the episode. We got so deep on a topic that I asked her to ditch the original one because I thought the new idea would have a greater impact. Selfishly, it’s also something that I really need to work on myself. I just needed a nudge (ok, hard push) to do it. Hoping you’ll join me in this one!

Episode 31: Reserving The Right To Change, Vulnerability vs. Intimacy, And Questioning Parenting Norms With Kathleen Shannon Apr 30, 2015

Kathleen Shannon is known for her work helping creative entrepreneurs grow and define their businesses. She’s got a brand (Braid Creative) and popular podcast (Being Boss) dedicated to it. So I thought feeer sure we’d be talking business on this episode. But we didn’t talk about it once. What we did cover got a little real…in the very best way possible.

Kathleen and I talked about online haters, how her spiritual growth has changed her (and also kept her the same), approaching tricky parenting traditions and systems (heads up: we talk circumcision), and a really great piece of advice that Brené Brown shared with her (and now YOU).

Dive in and make sure to share what you think about these topics.

Episode 30: Misophonia, Prioritizing What’s Important, And Being A Messy Bessy With Ashlae Warner Of Oh, Ladycakes Apr 23, 2015

I already spilled the beans about this week’s guest on yesterday’s post…it’s the very cool Ashlae Warner of Oh, Ladycakes. But what you don’t know is just how many freaking topics we covered in this episode.

Ashlae and I talk about dealing with misophonia, a heartbreaking yet pivotal point in her relationship, her tips on creating more opportunities to travel, using food as medicine, her beef with Sur La Table, and our shared messy-bessy ways (that’s a nice way of saying we’re slobs).

Episode 29: Battling Anxiety + A Starter Guide To Meditation With Eva Daiberl Apr 16, 2015

I’ll have to admit that I was a little intimidated when I first met Eva Daiberl. She seemed kind of perfect to me. She’s good at everything she does (she’s a trained pastry chef, photographer, and DIY master). She’s traveled the world. And a stroll through her closet rivals any trip to Barneys. But the more I got to know her, I found out that Eva she wasn’t so intimidating after all. She deals with personal shit just like the rest of us and is one of the most compassionate people I’ve met because of it.

In this interview, Eva and I discuss her battle with anxiety, the judgement she felt from others after her diagnosis, and how meditation has changed her life and helped manage her symptoms. She’s an incredible woman and I’m excited for you to hear this episode.

One Part Pledge / A Challenge By Lee Cockerell Apr 09, 2015

Often described as the “hardest-working person on the planet,” Lee Cockerell is the man. He’s the former Executive Vice President of Operations for Walt Disney World, has led a team of 40,000 employees, is a best-selling author, and a crazy-inspiring speaker.

And we’re very lucky to have him bring this month’s One Part Pledge Challenge! As always, you gotta listen to find out what the challenge is…but I’d grab some paper and a pen to write this shit down. It’s a good one.

Here’s Lee:

3. Take the pledge and tweet it. Share on Twitter and tag it with #onepartpledge. Challenge someone else you know to take part in it. These things are always easier with friends.

Episode 27: Long-Term Relationships, Not Working For Free, And Doing What You’re Born To Do With Laura Wright Of The First Mess Mar 26, 2015

This interview was a long time coming. I’ve wanted Laura Wright of The First Mess to be a guest since I started the podcast, but we held out and waited – and now it’s time. And it just happens to coincide with the reveal of a new, special something she’s been working on. Believe me, it’s a big one.

Laura and I talk her big news, learning to communicate better in long-term relationships, knowing what your audience wants, and putting your energy into projects that are truly beneficial to you (no working for free). We also talk Canada-things, like Drake and his lint rollers.

Episode 25: Determination, Monetizing Your Brand, And Enjoying The Bumpy Ride To Success With Hillary Sawchuk of A Drink With Mar 12, 2015

This week’s guest is Hillary Sawchuk. She’s the creator of the popular interview series A Drink With and an all-around inspiring woman. Hilary has interviewed everyone from Common to Steve Forbes to Kurt Russell for her site. And looking at the super-polished, pulled-together brand she’s created, you’d think the she’d be kicking back and drinking champers with celebs. But Hillary explained in our conversation that things aren’t always as glamorous as they appear. And neither was the journey to get where she is today.

We discuss how she went from a utilities intern for The Pistons (where she was literally carrying a cord around behind a cameraman) to becoming on-air talent, the reason she started A Drink With, how she’s monetizing it today, and why she believes getting told “no” can still be a small victory for your brand.

This month’s challenge is brought to you by my friend and natural-skincare wonder woman, Adina Grigore, of S.W. Basics and the new book Skin Cleanse.

See why I love her so much?

She’s bringing a doozy of a challenge this month, and you might already have an idea of what it is…but you’re still going to have to listen to find out for sure.

Episode 24: Stop Wanting And Start Getting What You Want with Rochelle Bilow Feb 26, 2015

I think a lot of us have had the dream of leaving the city and moving to a farm or cabin or beach somewhere – living off the land and creating (what we imagine will be) a simpler life for ourselves. Well, food writer and author Rochelle Bilow did just that.

Rochelle and I discuss her year of living on a farm, falling in love, setting intentions, and her book that chronicles it all: The Call Of The Farm, An Unexpected Year of Getting Dirty, Home Cooking, and Finding Myself. Here’s Rochelle:

Episode 23: Surrogacy, A Pigeon, And Redefining The Traditional Family With Mariah Naella Feb 19, 2015

I’ve loved every single guest and story I’ve shared on the podcast, but Mariah Naella’s story feels extra special. Maybe it’s because I had never even spoken to her before and she was so generous and open. Maybe it’s because her story was so compelling that I was a little speechless at times. Or maybe it’s because she lives with a pigeon – and it’s a pretty special little bird. Maybe it’s all of these reasons and a few more.

You’re going to have to listen in to hear why I love this episode so much. I don’t want to give away too much – just know that Mariah proves just how strong and courageous a person can be. The woman is truly remarkable. And has a really great laugh.

One Part Pledge / A Challenge By Katie Horwitch Feb 05, 2015

The pod is BACK, complete with a new monthly series called One Part Pledge, and I’m so excited about it! Don’t worry, if you love the original podcast, it’ll still be there. But I really think you’re going to like this new addition.

Here’s the deal: A One Part Pledge pod will go up at the beginning of each month. My guest will share a challenge they’ve created for us. The challenge might be something big or small. It might be accomplished in a day or maybe over a whole month. It might be physical – or just a mental thing. The point is that the challenge will be designed to shake things up a little in our daily routines. And create some change in places that maybe we need it most (and might not even know it).

If you decide to take on the challenge, here are some ways to make your pledge…

1. Take the pledge and keep it to yourself. Tell no one or maybe just your best friend at dinner. Write it in your diary. Say it out loud to your bathroom mirror. Do you.

2. Take the pledge and share in the comments here. It’s a great place to talk with fellow pledgers. And also a great place to ask any questions you might have about the challenge.

3. Take the pledge and tweet it. Share on Twitter and tag it with #onepartpledge. Challenge someone else you know to take part in it. These things are always easier with friends.

4. Take the pledge and Instagram it. Take a photo of yourself holding up the OPP hand sign (it’s above) or a photo of you doing the challenge. You don’t even have to show your face. Get creative with it. And make sure to tag me, so I see you! #onepartpledge works here too.

If you miss a challenge or aren’t ready for it right now, that’s ok. This isn’t like an episode of Game of Thrones. You can miss one and still know what the hell is going on. Again, do you.

So, let’s get to it! The first One Part Pledge challenge is….

Ok. So, I’m not actually going to tell you the challenge. You have to listen to find out! But I am going to tell you who’s bringing it. This first challenge is from my girl Katie Horwitch. She’s the fitness/mind/body editor at The Chalkboard Mag, an Equinox instructor, and now the proud mama of the awesome new website WANT (Women Against Negative Talk).

She’s inspiring, thoughtful, and just so passionate about what she does. So basically the perfect first guest for this series.

De’Mar and I discuss his early beginnings in Chicago, the music experience that transformed his career, the blessing and the curse of having a #1 hit on the radio, and how he found the love of his life…halfway across the world. I love De’Mar’s story and think you will too.

Get ready to fall in love with one of my favorite people on the planet, because Megan Silianoff is this week’s guest. Megan was in town from Texas to host this month’s For Reals Meals, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to interview her…in person. My first face-to-face interview for the podcast. And it all went down at The Thompson Hotel.

Megan and I talk about overcoming cancer (twice), the incredible and emotional process of adopting her daughter, and the book she wrote that chronicles it all (99 Problems But A Baby Ain’t One). The word “inspiring” doesn’t seem big enough to describe her story – so take a listen and let me know if you’ve got a better word for it!

Episode 17: Putting Yourself Out There + Creating An Authentic Brand with Jena Gambaccini of ChiCityFashion Nov 06, 2014

And we’re back! This week’s guest is Jena Gambaccini of ChiCityFashion. You’ve probably seen Jena around here before…creating half-assed meals and being the only person ever allowed to attend multiple For Reals Meals (it’s hard to say no to her). Jena’s been a big supporter of OPP since day one. And I’m really excited for you to hear her story.

Jena and I discuss why she hid ChiCityFashion from friends and family in the early days, what she learned about confidence and putting yourself out there, and the advantages of creating a city-specific website. Oh, and I also force her to reveal the new brand she’s been working on, which I’m really excited about. And we talk dogs (hers) and babies (mine!). Fashion, puppies, babies, and big reveals…sounds like a pretty perfect episode to me.

Episode 16: Pursuing More Than One Passion + Protecting Your Work With Julie Lee Of Julie’s Kitchen Oct 23, 2014

Food-photography queen bee, Julie Lee of Julie’s Kitchen, is this week’s guest! Julie’s been on the site before, sharing one of her beautiful recipes and hosting the first ever LA For Reals Meals, but this is the first time we really dig deep into the path she followed that brought her to success. And that path might not be what you think.

Julie and I discuss juggling five jobs at a time in the early days, how it’s ok (and actually pretty healthy) to pursue more than one passion, and the action she took to protect her work after a big company used it without her permission. A lot of heart and a little bit of scandal…sounds pretty good, right?

Heather Crosby is this week’s guest. Remember her? She was on the site earlier this week to give away her new cookbook (it’s so good!). Clearly, I’ve got a thing for Heather and her message. And maybe her spicy taco recipe too. After hearing this episode, you’ll understand why I dig her so much.

Heather and I discuss how she took her health in her own hands when doctors weren’t giving her answers, how she went from eating her first salad at 19 to becoming a wellness expert, tips on getting a book published, and why she’s not as perfect as you might think. Sounds awesome, right? Dive in there!

Episode 14: Real Talk On Risk Taking, Growing Your Brand + Motherhood with Dana Gordon of Dana Rebecca Designs Oct 09, 2014

Dana Gordon of Dana Rebecca Designs (DRD) is my guest this week. One of the reasons I love Dana is that she never disappoints in the “real talk” department. She cuts through the bullshit and is always genuine, honest, and practical when comes to conversations on business and tricky life things. And she knows what she’s talking about. She’s built one of the most successful and popular jewelry brands out there today. Over the years, we’ve had a few of these talks, but this is for sure my favorite one (and YOU get to hear it!).

Dana and I discuss the giant risk she took that decided the fate of her career, the importance of creatives being business-minded, her advice on growing your brand to the next level, and the clash between working and stay-at-home moms (and what to do about it). There are some real game changer nuggets of wisdom in this episode, and I can’t wait for you hear them.

Who says thirteen isn’t lucky? Actually, I do all the time. I’m pretty superstitious. But getting to interview one of my favorite podcast hosts for this thirteenth episode feels pretty damn lucky. Eric Zimmer is the soothing voice behind the incredible and thought-provoking podcast, The One You Feed.

Eric and I discuss the parable that inspired his podcast, the struggle of staying off autopilot, the tools he uses to make sure he doesn’t get stuck, and his practical and inspiring approach to healthy eating (I had no idea he was a fellow plant-head).

Sarah Gidick is this week’s guest. She’s the mastermind behind the popular site and Instagram Porn For Women (which is not actually porn – so you can listen and read post this at work, friends!). You might remember that Joy Claire mentioned Sarah on Episode 5 as someone that inspires her. Man, she was right. Her story really is inspiring.

Sarah and I discuss how she became a leader in the industry that rejected her, never giving up on your big dream, and her #1 tip for being successful at social media (clearly, it’s working for her). Sarah is funny, kind, and super smart – and I’m excited for you to get to know her better.

Jess Lively is today’s guest. She’s one of the biggest reasons I wanted to start a podcast in the first place. Well, that and I like to talk a lot. Jess is one of the most passionate people I know – and watching her do her thing (when I was a guest on her show) gave me the bug to start my own.

On this episode, Jess and I discuss her path from selling weird ankle bracelets at a pool to the thriving business she has today, how setting goals isn’t always the best approach to finding success and happiness, and how the words of an old Italian sculptor changed her life forever.

Episode 10: The Sustainability Secret with Kip Andersen of Cowspiracy Sep 11, 2014

Kip Andersen is this week’s guest. He’s the man behind the new environmental documentary, Cowspiracy. Described as “the film environmental organizations don’t want you to see,” it chronicles Kip’s journey to uncover the most destructive industry facing our planet.

Kip and I discuss the catalyst for creating the film, how a Mad Cowboy almost scared him out of finishing the movie, and the most important first step we can take to help the environment and find true sustainability.

Episode 9: Being Really Good At What You Do with Max Wastler of Made Right Here Sep 04, 2014

Max Wastler is my guest this week. I’ve known Max for about four years, but it wasn’t until this episode that I truly understood the passion behind the risks he’s taken and choices he’s made with his career. It made for a solid talk.

Max talks about the 33 jobs he’s had in 33 years, the origins of his hustler ways, and his mission to connect people to the makers of the products they use every day. He completely changed my perspective on the phrase “Made In America,” and I’m excited to hear what you think about this episode.
