Today, Sali sits down with Kerry Docherty. With a background in law and as a mindfulness coach, Kerry is a cofounder of Faherty Brand, where she works alongside her husband and her brother-in-law, pushing for progress in the fashion industry. Kerry is also the author of the upcoming memoir, Selfish, debuting April 21. In it, she shares an intimate look at her relationship to her career, her marriage, and herself—an account that’s honest, vulnerable, messy at times, and reclaims what it means to be called “selfish.”

Selfish: Unlearning, Reclaiming, and Telling the Truth, by Kerry Docherty, releases April 21 and is available for preorder now!

Starting in her late teens, Chelsea Leyland built a global DJ career, collaborating with some of the world's biggest fashion brands. However, it was her personal health struggles that led to her work now in advocacy and as the cofounder of Looni, a menstrual health and wellness company.

Chelsea was diagnosed with epilepsy in childhood and, after suffering with painful periods for years, she was also diagnosed with endometriosis in her 20s. Today, she sits down with Sali to share her incredible journey, from searching for treatments and becoming a vocal advocate for plant-based medicine, to finding the right cofounder and understanding the essential role community plays in the healing journey.

Emily Tisch Sussman, host of She Pivots and co-owner of Gotham FC and the New York Giants, doesn't just talk about making career changes—she’s lived it. BIG time. This week, she sits down with Sali to get candid about struggling to make a name for herself, placing her value in her work, and what happened when it all fell apart. Spoiler alert: Right around the time she became a mother.

A lawyer by trade, Emily has previously worked as a lobbyist, strategist, and TV political commentator. After giving birth to her third child, however, she recognized the need for change. Today, we’ll talk about:

• navigating a career path when you’re not sure what you’re good at.
• what it means to step away from the roles you’ve committed your life to when they no longer fit.
• working on the Obama campaign and being a political commentator for Fox News,
• the honest experience of early parenthood and not feeling an instant connection to your children.
• launching the She Pivots podcast and why it’s drawing huge guests, including Vice President Kamala Harris, Vanessa Hudgens, and Bobbi Brown.

Want to hear more from Emily? She Pivots Season 5 premieres March 25.
