I'm back to work after a few weeks away, not that I ever really step away. This week I'm showing you what my life actually looks like as a CEO, a mom of four, and a podcast host, from content days and fittings to getting my kids out the door for the first day of school.
You'll meet the team who make it all happen, and see what a real week looks like when you're running businesses and building a podcast at the same time. I'm also sharing the five books I read on holiday (including one that had me side-eyeing my husband the entire trip), how I'm thinking about the next chapter for Good American, and what I want to create with Aspire this season.
BOOKS I READ ON HOLIDAY
The Psychology of Money — Morgan Housel
Strangers — Belle Burden
The Year of Magical Thinking — Joan Didion
The Meaning of Your Life — Arthur Brooks
Churn - Claude M. Steele
