say thank you before you get there
I like to imagine my dreams coming true in great detail. Where I’ll be. What I’ll be wearing. Precisely how I’ll be feeling. And mostly, who I’ll turn to to say, “It happened! Sweet Jesus, can you believe it, score! we did it, the day has come, they called, I’m there, we made it, it’s...

burning questions with Patti Digh: poetic choices
Substance. Mindfulness. Deep play. Meaning-making. Patti Digh. (Insert a very humble bow, a Namaste, my hands folded in respect, and a “Woot! Woot! Patti’s the bomb.” Ommmm Patti.) 1. What is the question that you are currently living? The question I live every morning is the one that started me on my current journey: What...
one of the most powerful questions, ever
“What’s dying to be born?” Lianne said to some of us women over mint tea earlier this year. Kelly. Ronna. Gwen. Lee-Anne. We nodded, quietly, taking it into our hearts. It was a lot to take it. This question wouldn’t leave Lianne alone. (What question won’t leave you alone?) Until she knew she had to...
fire starter profile: Financially Smitten’s Lora Sasiela
Lora Sasiela is the founder of Financially Smitten.

Cocktail line: I’m a real estate broker and attorney by training, but what I really do is create content that feeds the informational cravings of smart women who want...
burning questions with jen louden, the comfort queen
“Comfort Queen.” Who doesn’t want to meet the woman who earned that title? Jen Louden is the author of the Oprah-loved The Woman’s Comfort Book, a coach who describes her typical client as “smart, curious, has a pretty good sense of humor, and doesn’t suffer fools lightly.” (sound familiar?) And one of the innovators of...
burning questions with ronna detrick: faith + feminism
Ronna Detrick looks you in the eye. And she listens. And when she speaks, you can see her pulling down wisdom from St. Theresa to Simone de Beauvoir through the filter of her own lived experience, to give you gem of grace – or grit. And, she can write – like a poet on a...
burning questions with naomi dunford, domanatrix of itty biz
A straight-talking female entrepreneurial adviser, SEO cracker jack, with a giving heart who knows her value and has a proclivity for fishnets? How could I not be smitten? What I love about Naomi Dunford’s work is that it’s a) incredibly practical and logical, and b) it radiates an intention of “I’m really here to help...
burning questions with kelly diels: cleavage + faith
Have you seen Kelly Diels’ cleavage? It’s deep. She writes with rapier wit and overflowing love, about “everything we all want more of: sex, money, and meaning.” And feminism. And Malcolm Gladwell. Yep. She’s hot. I read everything she writes. EVERYTHING, honey. 1. What’s your super hero name? (You have one. To discover it, stand...
