What does it take to rewrite your story—on your own terms?

In this heartfelt episode, I catch up with Kacey Voelker, a former wine guide I hadn’t seen in years. And wow... what a journey she’s been on. Kacey opens up about her decision to get sober nearly three years ago, the healing work she’s done since, and how she’s now using her experience to coach other women who feel stuck, unworthy, or like they’ve lost their spark.

We talk about:

• Letting go of shame and old stories
• Setting boundaries and choosing who gets to walk beside you
• Creating a life aligned with purpose—one small step at a time
• Her growing coaching practice and how Plexus is supporting her wellness journey
• Why being “fun” doesn’t have to mean alcohol—and how community can still thrive

Whether you're sober-curious, in recovery, or just navigating a season of transformation, Kacey’s story is a powerful reminder that you’re never starting from scratch—you’re starting from experience.

What do you do when your business takes a hit—then another, and another?

Larissa Banting built a seven-figure destination wedding company in Costa Rica, only to be hit with economic downturns, internal theft, and a pandemic shutdown. But instead of giving up, she pivoted—again and again—and found her next calling in public relations.

In this episode, Larissa shares:

• How she went from publicist to wedding planner (and back again)
• What a “self-liquidating offer” is—and how it saved her business in 2020
• The hard lessons behind selling a business, losing six figures, and rebuilding from scratch
• Why it’s never too early (or too late) to pitch yourself to the media
• The connection between horseback riding and entrepreneurship (yep, really!)

This one’s for anyone who’s ever thought, “I can’t start over again.” You’re not starting over—you’re building on everything you’ve learned.

Is it time for a mid-year reset?

In this solo episode, I'm sharing what I’ve been up to lately—including some deep spring cleaning that’s gone way beyond closets and cabinets. From dusty old Wine Spectator magazines to a pink Goody comb I’ve had since middle school (yes, really), I’ve been letting go of things that no longer serve me—physically and emotionally.

With Memorial Day weekend around the corner and the halfway point of 2025 approaching, I’m inviting you to take a little time to pause, reflect, and realign with what matters most.

✨ Inside this episode:

• Stories from my own spring cleaning
• Gentle prompts to help you declutter your mind and your space
• Why letting go helps us move forward
• A reminder that it’s never too late to reset
