The Things I'm Most Excited About: Community, Wealth Summits & Bold New Beginnings

When I realized it had been a couple of weeks since I’d recorded a solo episode, I didn’t want to open my podcast app.

I knew exactly what I was going to see: gaps. Empty weeks where there “should” have been episodes. Proof, at least according to the little inner bully, that I wasn’t showing up “like a real entrepreneur.”

But here’s the thing: I refuse to shame myself for being human.

I don’t want you to shame yourself either—for taking breaks, for needing rest, for hitting a growth spurt in your life or business that knocks your routines sideways for a minute.

Because that’s all this is: not failure, just feedback.

Moving, Stuff, and the Cost of Expansion

In September I moved from condos and apartment buildings into a townhome. On paper, it sounds simple:

New place. New energy. New chapter.

In reality? Expensive. Draining. Confronting.

Every box I filled spawned three more piles. Every corner revealed more stuff I didn’t remember buying and definitely didn’t remember loving. I was disgusted—in that “how did I accumulate this much?” kind of way.

So I’ve been challenging myself to sell, give away, or throw out as much as I can. Not just because I don’t want to carry clutter into this next chapter, but because it was a mirror:

If my physical space is this full, how full is my mental space?
How much are we all carrying that we never consciously chose?

And then—amidst all the chaos—I got a garage for the first time in my life.

A whole garage. Mine. A literal room just to hold overflow.

It felt empowering. It also felt dangerous.

Because if we’re not intentional, every new “container” we create—new house, new income level, new calendar, new Google Drive folder—just becomes a bigger place to hide more unexamined stuff.

That’s what I don’t want, in my home or in my business.

Why I’m Building the Audacious Founder Community

There’s something that has bothered me for years:

I watch the men in my life casually build wealth together.

They invest in deals with their brothers and friends.
They pull each other into opportunities.
They are constantly—constantly—getting on each other’s boats. Literally and figuratively.

Meanwhile, most of the women I know are:

• Building businesses alone

• Investing alone

• Trying to “figure out money” alone

• Or outsourcing it completely, hoping someone smarter will handle it

It’s not because we’re not capable. It’s because we were never socialized to see wealth-building as a team sport.

We were trained to be “good with saving,” good with coupons, good with stretching a dollar—while the bigger conversations about capital, deals, leverage, and ownership quietly skipped over us.

So we became excellent at survival.
But we weren’t invited into strategy.

That’s why the Audacious Founder Community exists.

It’s not just a cute membership with a chat and some Zoom calls.
It’s my rebellion against women staying isolated with their money, their dreams, and their power.

I want:

• Women who want lots of money and aren’t apologizing for it

• Women who are building businesses and legacies, not just “side hustles”

• Women who are ready to share deals and ask for them

• Women who will say, “I have this opportunity—who wants in?” instead of, “I hope someone will let me in…”

This community isn’t just about support. It’s about collaboration and co-ownership.

We’re going to:

• Bring in experts to teach what we weren’t taught

• Build a wealth library so you can revisit and actually integrate

• Host masterminds where you get to ask specific, smart questions

• And over time, yes—invest together

I can literally see us:

• Buying real estate together

• Flying to see our properties

• Showing up to each other’s events

• Sharing tax strategies, intros, and opportunities

For a while, that vision intimidated me. The workload. The logistics. The responsibility.

Now? The fear has shifted into clarity.

Because this isn’t about me being “the expert on everything.” It’s about building the room where audacious women finally act like the wealth builders they are.

The Wealth Summit: Making Money, Strategy & Protection Actually Feel Human

On top of the community, I decided to host two big summits every year—one in May and one in November.

When the idea first landed, I was overwhelmed. It felt heavy, vague, like one more thing to fail at.

But once the vision snapped into focus, the dread disappeared.

The Audacious Founder Wealth Summit is built around three pillars:

1. Authenticity
   Because money is numbers, yes—but wealth is deeply personal.
   If your financial decisions don’t align with your actual values, you’ll build a life that looks successful and feels wrong.

2. Education
   You cannot make confident decisions about real estate, insurance, business structures, investing, or tax strategy if you have no idea what’s going on.
   You shouldn’t have to fake your understanding in rooms with advisors. You should know enough to ask better questions and recognize a good opportunity when you see it.

3. Protection
   You work hard to build assets.
   Who protects them?
   How are they taxed?
   What happens to them when you die?
   Can you keep control after you’re gone?

Those aren’t “someday” questions. They are now questions for anyone serious about legacy.

And we’re going to make it fun. Yes, fun. Money, tax strategy, asset protection—served with snacks, prizes, connection, and depth. Not stiff, not awkward, not performative.

Just smart women getting properly equipped.

A Second Podcast & Another Version of Me

Because my brain doesn’t like to do just one thing at a time, I also started another podcast with my friend Hilda: The Point Taken Podcast.

It’s not about money. It’s about:

• Dating

• Business

• Friendships

• Politics

• Sex

• Passion

• And all the data we collect just by living our messy, audacious lives

The premise is simple:
Life doesn’t come with a manual, but it definitely leaves you with data.

Every choice is a datapoint.
Every heartbreak, win, mistake, and miracle—data.

So at the end of each episode, we try to arrive at a conclusion rooted in what the data actually says—not just our feelings or social media narratives.

It gives me a different place to express, unwind, think out loud, and be human outside of “money expert” mode. I need that. And I think you probably do too.

Radical Accountability: Where I’ve Dropped the Ball

Now that I’ve told you everything I’m excited about, here’s what I’ve been avoiding:

• Newsletters – I keep forgetting to send them. I record interviews, schedule episodes… and then don’t tell anyone.

• Solo podcast episodes – I let the overwhelm of moving and planning take over. The interviews kept going, but my own voice got quieter.

• Self-care – I haven’t gone to the gym in a few days. I’ve been sitting, reading, resting… and then beating myself up for it.

There’s this constant tension:

Is this laziness or is this my body asking for a reset?
Am I “dropping the ball” or am I honoring the fact that I just moved, built a new offer, planned events, and started a whole new podcast?

We live in a world that worships productivity and sees rest as a character flaw.

Especially as women, we’re taught to:

• Run the business

• Nurture the relationships

• Maintain the home

• Improve our bodies

• Heal our trauma

• Scale to seven figures

• And somehow still feel “behind”

It’s no wonder that when we finally sit down with a book, our nervous system exhale is instantly interrupted by guilt.

The Real Question

The question I keep coming back to is:

How do you know when you’re being lazy versus when you’re finally listening to your body?

I don’t have a perfect answer yet.

But I know this:

• Avoidance feels tight, buzzy, anxious

• True rest feels soft, grounding, quiet

• Avoidance keeps you disconnected from your vision

• Rest reconnects you to it

So no, I’m not proud that I’ve let some things slide.
But I’m also not available for the story that pausing means I’m not serious, not committed, or not “disciplined enough.”

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do as a founder is stop long enough to feel your own life.

Bottom Line

I feel stretched.
I feel wildly excited.
I feel like I’m carrying more vision than ever… and also more Amazon boxes than I’d like to admit.

I feel the weight of wanting to build something big for women—community, events, education, collective wealth—while also wanting to honor my very human need for rest, slowness, and time to just sit and read.

What I refuse to do is build a movement that requires me—or you—to abandon our bodies in the process.

We deserve:

• Wealth and wellness

• Ambition and rest

• Legacy and lives that feel good now

So yes, I’m getting back into the gym this week.
Yes, I’m recommitting to solo episodes and newsletters.
And yes, I’m building this community, these events, and these conversations with you in mind.

Call to Action

If you’ve been building alone…
If you’ve been carrying the weight of your ambition quietly…
If you’ve been telling yourself you’ll “figure out money later”…

This is your invitation to stop doing it by yourself.

Pause long enough to ask:

• What am I carrying that I don’t actually want to bring into my next level?

• Where am I expanding without being intentional?

• Who could I be building wealth with instead of for validation or survival?

Then take one bold step.
