With Whit

I ALWAYS get asked about balance. How do I balance being a career woman, mom, wife, human, etc. My answer is always the same: There is never a perfect balance. One thing is always heavier one day than it is another. I had the best conversation about balance with Naketa Ren Thigpen, LCSW. She is a psychotherapist, trauma specialist, sexology and relationship expert who has become the go-to for fast-scaling married women entrepreneurs and power couples seeking to balance love and success without dimming or apologizing for their spirited ambition. During our chat she explains how to not feel guilty about being selfish and making time for yourself, maintaining emotional intimacy with your partner and creating barriers for the purpose of overall relationship growth.

It’s on days like these that I am so thankful for WITH WHIT. The day I interviewed Ryan Haddon, I was in such a slump. I felt this feeling of loss and sadness that I wasn’t able to pick myself out of. Ryan helped me start to climb out of the hole I was in, and I left feeling much more relaxed and welcoming to what lay ahead. Ryan is a certified Life and Spiritual coach, clinical Hypnotherapist, and certified meditation teacher with over 16 years of experience with clients around the world. We talked about the benefits of making a menu of what fills you up, not trusting all of our thoughts, and that by discovering our values and beliefs we can counter the concern of what other people think and so much more.  Ryan is a sought-after public speaker for corporate retreats. Additionally, she does private workshops such as “Stepping Into Your Purpose,” “The Work/Life Balance,” and “Finding Your Center.” She’s also the in-house Life Coach at Kourtney Kardashian’s website Poosh, where she has written more than 50 mind/body/spirit articles.        This episode is brought to you by Lovevery and Hooked On Phonics Give your child the confidence that reading brings with Hooked On Phonics.

After having two miscarriages, I think I've ignored taking care of my body to avoid the risk of getting pregnant and losing another pregnancy.

Last year, while life was on lockdown and there was so little we could control, I realized I desperately needed to focus on the strategy behind building an influential and important social media presence. I had this "AHA" moment but knew I wasn't capable of this overarching, big picture task. I like small touches and up-close views...and that's ok! I’ve learned the importance of acknowledging your strengths and weaknesses as early as possible so you know when to ask for help. I have the creative eye and vision, but needed someone not only versed in the inner workings of brand building and data analysis, but who also embodied the style, grace and silliness that my brand represents. Enter, Renee Ogaki!! Renee is the founder of OGAKI, the first digital PR agency of its kind. OGAKI is entirely focused on the online space and built for digital-first brands and personalities. Renee has helped me not only strengthen my Instagram channel, but is also handling the social and PR for my lounge line, COZeCO! During our chat she shares how she came up with the strategy for building my and COZeCO's social media accounts and gives some great advice for those looking to get into the digital marketing and PR space! She started working in the digital space before Instagram had even launched, creating a strong foundation of experience in building a brand’s voice and community online. Throughout her career, Renee has worked with pioneering brands across the beauty, fashion, hospitality and lifestyle space including Four Seasons, Diptyque, Charlotte Tilbury, Bulgari Hotels, New Balance, among others.    This episode is brought to you by Chloe Wine Collection.    Chloe Wine Collection is a female-led wine brand, dedicated to celebrating women’s stories and inspiring meaningful moments.

If I am not recording a solo episode, then my favorite way to record a podcast is with my husband, Tim Rosenman! There’s no interviewing pressure – we just sit, chat, laugh and enjoy. For this episode, I had the idea for us to do a little homework beforehand. We each came into this conversation with a list of our five favorite things! I had no rules for what they needed to be, so it was so fun to hear how different they were – the lists spanned from apps to activities to mindfulness to products. Additionally, we provided a little life update for what is going on in our home.  To those who need – you can get the nipple covers/Nippies I love and talk about on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3sYu3cR   This episode is brought to you by Agency, Talkspace and Seed.
