Ep. 37 💪 Doing Hard Things on Purpose: Fear, Intuition & the Truth About ‘Doing the Work’ with Shantani Moore

Our bodies are always speaking to us, but most of us were never taught how to listen.Instead, we’re taught to numb, push through, perform, optimize, transcend, and “be productive.” We try to think our way out of fear. We try to affirm our way out of dysregulation. We try to logic our way into clarity.But what if the clarity, the courage, the creativity, the capacity you’re craving… is already living in your body?This conversation with Shantani Moore — Body Intelligence Coach and nervous system expert — is one of the most energizing, truth-telling, paradigm-shifting episodes we’ve ever had on the pod. She’s funny, brilliant, wildly compassionate, and refreshingly honest about what “doing the work” really means (and what it absolutely doesn’t).We talk about the difference between intuition and instinct, how to relate to hard things without collapsing, why anxiety might actually be your secret weapon, and what happens when the wellness industry turns healing into performance.We dive into: How our bodies communicate with us — and why most creatives are ignoring 90% of the data Intuition vs. instinct: the biggest misconception and how to tell which one is actually speaking The truth about “doing the work,” and how to know when you’re performing your healing instead of living it Expanding your capacity for the unknown: nervous system training, hard conversations, and holding the frame Why anxiety can be a competitive advantage (and how to leverage it instead of numbing)If you’ve ever wondered…“Is this fear… or is this my intuition?”“Why do I keep abandoning myself?”“Why does success still feel stressful?”“Why do I look regulated but feel like chaos inside?”…this one’s going to land deep.Shantani is the real deal — and I know you’re going to love her.✨ Connect with Shantani Website: shantanimoore.com Instagram: @somaticceo FREE Quiz: What Wild Animal Runs Your Subconscious?

Ep. 35 🌈 The Art Of Self-Leadership, Mushrooms, and Staying In Your Creative Flow with RAINBO Founder Tonya Papanikolov

You know that point in your biz where the work that once lit you up starts asking something new of you? Maybe new systems, new boundaries, new levels of self-leadership?That’s exactly what today’s conversation explores.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Tonya Papanikolov, the founder and CEO of RAINBO — a functional mushroom and adaptogen company built on a foundation of integrity, curiosity, and deep reverence for the natural world.Tonya’s story moves from holistic nutritionist and yoga practitioner to visionary product-based founder, blending together science, spirituality, and entrepreneurship in the most magnetic way. We talk about nervous system wisdom, feminine leadership, working with your partner, and what it really looks like to grow a soul-led business that scales, without losing your magic.We dive into: Tonya’s journey from holistic nutritionist to creating RAINBO — and the healing experience that inspired it The “mystical” birth story of RAINBO (and how she literally asked the mushroom spirit for permission to create the brand) Shifting identity from healer to CEO, and learning to lead a team with heart Working with your romantic partner — and how to maintain polarity when you also share a business Tonya’s self-leadership practices: what it looks like to structure creativity, delegate well, and lead from intuition What’s lighting her up now: play, poetry, sensuality, and slowing downThis conversation is pure medicine for anyone evolving in their biz — especially if you’ve ever wondered how to scale without hardening, or how to stay in your creative flow while leading others. It’s juicy and full of wisdom on entrepreneurship, embodiment, and what it means to build a company that’s as alive and intentional as you are.Connect with Tonya @tonyapapanikolove @rainbomushrooms Rainbo PodcastReady to Catch a Break?Join us for Break Your Biz — a workshop dedicated to helping you create a cyclical work rhythm.

Ep. 34 💥 Creative Unrest & Our Zone of Aliveness: How to Find (and Follow) What Makes You Come Alive

As artists and creative entrepreneurs, we’ve all heard people talk about finding your zone of genius. And while I love the intention behind it, lately it’s started to feel a little limiting — like maybe what we actually need isn’t more “genius”… but more aliveness.What if instead of asking, “What am I the best at?” we asked, “What makes me feel most alive?”This is your Zone of Aliveness — the place where your work feels like an extension of your energy, your curiosity, and your joy. It’s not about optimizing or mastering or narrowing in, but instead about expanding. It’s about finding the places in your work and creativity that light you up from the inside out.Shoutout to @tonyapapanikolove for interviewing me on her podcast about this theme and inspiring me to create a full solo episode on it!In this episode, I share what that shift has looked like for me — and how it’s changed the way I create, the way I work with clients, and honestly, the way I see success.If you’ve ever felt stuck in a version of your business that’s working on paper but not working for your soul… this one’s for you.We dive into: What it really means to create from a place of aliveness — and why it matters more than “genius” How to use your Zone of Aliveness as a compass for creativity, decision-making, and sustainability The 80/20 Rule for entrepreneurs: identifying the 20% of work that drives 80% of your results A reflective exercise to uncover your 5–7 biggest wins and trace the “seeds” that made them possible How curiosity, courage, and cheekiness can open doors you don’t even know exist yetLinks & Mentions: Book a 1:1 session with Abbi to hone in on your Zone of Genius for only $99 — Book here!

Ep. 33 🔥 The Quantum Crumble: Burning Down Your Dream Biz and Rising Again with Nicole Leth

Ever had the gut feeling that the “dream” you built isn’t actually yours anymore?That little voice in your head that says: burn it all down and begin again?That’s exactly what artist Nicole Leth did. After a decade running a wildly successful clothing line (stores, press, big following), she walked away to return to what felt true. Now her work shows up where you least expect it — on billboards, in murals, as anonymous postcards, even written across the sky.Nicole shows us what it looks like to listen to your intuition even when it’s wildly inconvenient.We dive into: Art as survival and the moment creativity became her lifeline Burning down a “dream” biz that looked like success but wasn’t aligned Life after the crumble: billboards, postcards, murals, skywriting Intuition + curiosity as the fuel for her most impactful work Behind the scenes: money, monotasking, rituals, and self-bossing as a full-time artistThis one is raw, brave, and so inspiring for anyone who’s ever wondered: what if I let myself create what I actually need?Trigger warning: suicide, grief, mental health; brief mention of sex trafficking.Connect with Nicole:Website: nicolemarieleth.comInstagram: @nicolemarielethPatreon: patreon.com/nicolemarielethDownload my Monday Magic Method (free) for a powerful + aligned week!My Monday Magic Method is how I self-boss each week with cyclical scheduling, time batching, and a Notion/PDF system that actually fits a creative brain.

Ep. 31 🩸 Alchemizing Endometriosis to Pain-Free-Periods with Catherine & Lauren Lee of Semaine

Turning Pain into Purpose with the Founders of Semaine HealthIf you’ve ever been curious about what it looks like to start a product-based biz, get into retailers, or alchemize your own struggle into something that serves others, you’re gonna eat this convo right up.I had the pleasure of chatting with Catherine and Lauren Lee — endometriosis warriors, founders of Semaine Health, and just all-around powerhouses when it comes to turning pain into purpose. We go deep into their own journeys with endo, PCOS, and IBS — and how what started as pain and suffering became not just relief, but the birth of Semaine Health!And even if you’re not biz-curious — if you’re just a human with a uterus — this episode is such an inspiring conversation about women’s health, period pain, menopause, stress, and the magic of plants.We got into everything: Their 15+ year journey with endometriosis and finally getting answers How a pain-free-period smoothie turned into a legit supplement biz The wild world of supplements (spoiler: most aren’t regulated) Growing Semaine from kitchen experiments to Walmart shelves (!!) Why women deserve support at every stage — from first period to perimenopause and beyondThis one is such a blend of personal, practical, and powerful. Catherine and Lauren are hilarious, brilliant, and so generous in sharing their story.And full disclosure: I am literally chewing on one of their PMS gummies as I type this. They’re basically anti-inflammatory candy and I cannot keep them in my house because my husband and my five-year-old eat them all.So, whether you’re here for the biz inspo, the period relief, or just to hear two badass women talk about turning pain into power — dive in. You’re gonna love it!Trigger warning: Endometriosis, emergency surgery, and cesarean birth.Connect with Catherine & Lauren + Semaine Health: Website: semainehealth.com Instagram: @semainehealthMentioned in this episode: Semaine PMS & Period Support Gummies (aka “anti-inflammatory candy”) Semaine Stress Less Gummies Center for Endometriosis Care – Atlanta, GA Outlive by Peter Attia The Honey Pot (Bea Dixon’s fem care brand) The Body Shop (founded by Anita Roddick)Wanna get your inflammation (HsCRP) and other labs checked to see if you're headed toward systemic inflammation?

Ep. 30 💸 Allergic to Self-Promotion? Your Cure Is To Sell How You Serve

Back in the Closet — Let’s Talk Selling That Feels Like ServiceOkay, I’m back in the closet (aka: my DIY podcast studio) for a juicy AF training episode on something I’ve been living, breathing, and teaching: how to SELL how you serve — aka in a way that feels like an extension of your already aligned service.Because let’s be real — a lot of us get itchy at the word “selling.” You’d rather people just found your work and loved it. But what if your content, your presence, your storytelling… was the sale?In this episode, I’m unpacking: The mindset shift that turns “selling” into service How to align your sales strategy with your zone of genius (yes, even if that’s dancing, painting, or voice-noting while eating cereal) Why giving your audience a taste of what you offer builds trust, credibility, and conversion What to do if traditional strategies (like email funnels or Pinterest) feel like a hard no in your body The practical framework I use to weave sales into my weekly workflow — with a side of banana bread analogiesThis one’s part storytelling, part workshop, part permission slip to do business your way.If you’re a creative, artist, healer, or heart-led entrepreneur who struggles to “sell yourself,” this is the reframe your nervous system has been craving.P.S. Craving support to build a biz that feels fun again?→ I’ve got spots open for 1:1 mentorship and space inside the Elevated Mastermind Circle.DM me “mastermind” or “mentorship” on Instagram and let’s talk.Love this pod?
