  • Kick Fear in the Face: Why Action Is the Real Breakthrough with Thea Wood
    Dec 1 2025

    What if the thing holding you back isn’t failure, but the fear of your own success?

    In today’s episode, host Lynzie and founder of CWC sits down with Thea Wood, co-founder of Hive Fit Club in Scottsdale, Arizona, a fitness and wellness ecosystem dedicated to transforming people from the inside out. After losing over 100 pounds combined, Thea and her husband Doug built an online coaching community, traveled the world with their family, and eventually followed a calling to create a physical space where people could grow in mind, body, and spirit together.

    Thea opens up about her lifelong battle with fear, what she calls “the silent dream killer,” and how choosing faith, action, and community helped her rewrite her story. She shares the turning points that shaped her journey, including losing 40 pounds herself, stepping into mentorship, and learning to put herself in rooms that stretched her comfort zone.

    • Why fear of success can be just as paralyzing as fear of failure, and how to move anyway.

    • How lasting change happens when you address mind, body, spirit, and even your environment.

    • The Power of Community and how it accelerates growth, healing, and purpose.

    • How integrating motherhood, business, health, and personal growth creates momentum that’s contagious.

    • What it truly means to build a life around impact, relationships, and connection.

    Thea reminds us that breakthroughs don’t happen in isolation. They happen in circles, in conversations, and in communities where people choose to show up for themselves and each other.

  • Building Community and Support When You Have None with Jodi Klaristenfeld
    Nov 10 2025

    What if your biggest challenge became the thing that helped others heal?

    In this week’s episode of The Wealth We Hold, host Lynzie Smith, founder of CWC, sits down with Jodi Klaristenfeld, the founder of FLRRiSH, the premier resource for preemie parents, helping families navigate the unexpected journey from hospital to home.

    In this heartfelt conversation, Jodi shares her powerful story of turning pain into purpose. After giving birth to her daughter at just 28 weeks, Jodi faced isolation, fear, and the unknown. But through that experience, she built community, found her voice, and launched FLRRiSH, a platform built to support other parents walking the same path.

    Together, they talk about:

    • The importance of building community when you feel completely alone

    • How mindset work and journaling helped her process trauma and find strength

    • Why self-care isn’t selfish, it’s the foundation for showing up for your family

    • How to reframe guilt and create space for your own growth

    • Redefining “wealth” as happiness, health, and a thriving family life

    Jodi’s story reminds us that you don’t have to wait for the community to find you, you can create it. Whether it’s connecting with one parent, joining a support group, or building something entirely new, you have the power to surround yourself with people who get it, and grow together.

    If you’ve been craving that kind of connection, you’re invited to join Finding Common Ground women’s circle on November 20th at 6 pm PST. We’ll shift our focus to lean into the winter months with the intention of being “Nourished through Self Care,” co-facilitated with Makuyo of SIIKA Herb & Honey Co. as our co-facilitator.

  • Building Authentic Community for all of Life’s Chapters with Cleoniki Kesidis
    Nov 3 2025

    What if the freedom you’re chasing doesn’t come from doing more, but from showing up as your truest self?

    In today’s episode of The Wealth We Hold, host Lynzie Smith sits down with Cleoniki Kesidis, founder of CEK Copywriting, to talk about authenticity, community, and the freedom that comes when we stop waiting to feel “ready.”

    Cleoniki launched her business during the pandemic and over the years she’s managed to build both a successful business alongside a thriving life as a single mom by choice. In today’s episode, they share the truth about entrepreneurship, motherhood, and the deep connection between the two.

    You’ll hear them talk about:

    • Authenticity in Business: Why “professionalism” isn’t the same as perfection and how showing up as your full self attracts the right people.

    • Community as Currency: How motherhood and entrepreneurship both demand support systems that grow with you.

    • Freedom through Flexibility: How Cleoniki built a life designed around her values and why she believes entrepreneurship makes motherhood possible.

    • Courage to Be Seen: What happens when you drop the mask and let people see the real you and why that’s where success starts

    • The Permission to Rest: How rest isn’t lazy but it’s the foundation for clarity, creativity, and better work (and parenting).

    Cleoniki reminds us that authenticity isn’t a strategy, it’s a way of living. And true wealth? It’s found in the people and connections that hold you through every season.

    Oct 27 2025

    What if “perfect timing” doesn’t exist, and the real magic is in starting before you feel ready?

    In today’s episode, host Lynzie and founder of CWC sits down with Lizeth Lambo, the founder and CEO of Plastics Medspa in Scottsdale, AZ, where luxury aesthetics and advanced plastic surgery services meet concierge-level care.

    Lizeth shares her entrepreneurial journey filled with challenges, support, and self-discovery. Initially facing multiple setbacks, including the guilt of unused equipment and a lack of belief in herself, Lizeth found the courage to remodel an existing office space and officially launch her business. She discusses the importance of a supportive community, debunking the myth of balance, and the impact of purpose-driven work.

    You’ll hear powerful takeaways on:

    • Starting Before You’re Ready: Why there’s never a perfect time to begin.
    • Courage Over Comparison: How Lizeth stopped giving energy to other people’s opinions.
    • Grace in Growth: Redefining balance and giving yourself permission to be imperfect.
    • Purpose Over Perfection: Building a business and a life rooted in meaning, not ego.

  • Reclaiming Harmony through Rest and Ritual with Makuyo
    Oct 20 2025

    What if the most powerful thing you could do for your business and wellbeing wasn’t pushing harder, but pausing?


    In this week’s episode of The Wealth We Hold, host Lynzie Smith sits down with Makuyo, creator of SIIKA Herb & Honey Co., a wellness brand that blends ancestral wisdom with modern-day luxury. Through honey-based infusions, natural candles, and intentional ritual, SIIKA helps women reconnect to the kind of wealth that can’t be measured: peace, harmony, and authenticity.


    Before becoming an entrepreneur, Makuyo spent years as a systems engineer. Her story bridges two worlds: the structure of modern systems and the flow of ancient rhythm. Today, she’s using that duality to teach women how to root deeper, radiate brighter, and build success without burnout.


    Together, they discuss what it means to embody “Rooted and Radiant” energy, how we can find strength in stillness, balance in ambition, and beauty in simplicity. They share:

    • Rest as a Radical Practice: How being still can actually help you grow faster.

    • Harmony Over Hustle: Why “balance” is a myth and how to create sustainable success instead.

    • Ancestral Wellness: The power of reconnecting with our lineage, land, and intuition.

    • Ritual and Rhythm: Simple daily practices to bring peace back into your body and business.


    Throughout this conversation, Makuyo reminds us that women have always carried the wisdom of nature within us. When we slow down, we remember who we are. When we rest, we rise stronger.


    Inspired to slow down and root into your own rhythm? Join the Finding Common Ground women’s circle on November 20th at 6 pm PST. We’ll shift our focus to lean into the winter months with the intention of being “Nourished through Self Care,” co-facilitated with Makuyo as our guest. It’s a free, no-sales space to connect, reflect, and reset, because your rest and rituals are your true wealth. Grab your spot now and get ready to leave feeling grounded, inspired, and radiant.
