Today on Becoming Obsessed, we're talking all about the magic — and the messiness of building community while on the move. My guest is Liz Rivas, founder of RoamCircle, a global women-first community app that helps female travelers, digital nomads, and expats find authentic friendships wherever they are in the world. Liz shares the raw origin story behind RoamCircle — from a life-altering experience, to solo traveling 12 countries in 12 months, to building and launching an app in just 90 days. We get into what it really takes to build something from scratch while working a full-time corporate job, why community is inconvenient (and worth it anyway), and a few stories about Berlin's club scene and traveling the South of France.

Today on Becoming Obsessed, we sit down with Olivia Austin: brand strategist, designer, business mentor, and founder of Current Design Studio and The Studio Co - to talk about building a business that's designed around the life you actually want. Olivia shares her journey from quitting her corporate marketing job in California on a gut feeling to scaling a sought-after design agency, and how following her intuition at every pivot has led her to where she is today. We get into the power of data-driven decisions, knowing your numbers, pricing your work with purpose, and why the blueprint to your dream business already exists - you just have to be willing to follow it. Plus, we talk about the courage it takes to move, pivot, and evolve even when everyone around you thinks you're crazy.

Today on Becoming Obsessed, we're diving into what it actually means to build community: not as a buzzword, but as a practice, with Annie Mosbacher: Chief Growth Officer at Dubsado and co-founder of Decoded, a marketing agency she grew to seven figures in five years.

Annie shares her winding path from classically trained singer to nonprofit work to tech executive to agency owner, and what each bold transition actually taught her about following a calling. We get into why community is a verb, how to take the leap responsibly, and what it looks like to build a business that serves your life - not the other way around.

In this solo episode, I'm breaking down why "protect your peace" culture has gone too far, and why real community is built in the inconvenient moments — the airport pickups, the showing up when you don't feel like it, the small nothings that actually add up to something.

I'm also getting a little philosophical about the society we live in, who benefits when we stop relying on each other, and what we'd build if we could start from scratch.

This one's for anyone who's been craving more — more depth, more togetherness, more of what actually matters.

Your girl is officially joining the thirties club — and she's arriving with a whole new identity.

In this solo episode, I'm getting real about turning 30, ego death, and what happens when you finally question the stories you've been telling yourself for years. I'm sharing the moment I decided to take off the "business owner" identity — not to stop building or creating, but to stop letting that label define me. I'm stepping into my artist era, ditching the systems and strategies, and giving myself full permission to just play.

If you've ever felt trapped inside the lines you didn't even know you were coloring in, this one's for you.

Also — I'm launching 30 Acts of Little Rebellion, a 30-day email series with one small daily reminder that your life is yours to play with. Get the details at teresaajean.com/rebel

It’s officially 2025, and if your feed is flooded with reflection prompts, vision board ideas, and goal-setting activities, you’re not alone. But let’s get real—do you really need to do more to make this year a success?

In this episode, I’m sharing the advice I’ve been giving myself this season: you’ve already done enough. From setting boundaries around your time to acknowledging the work you’ve already put in, I’ll walk you through how I’ve approached the new year in a way that feels intentional, authentic, and free from the constant pressure of “more.”

Whether you’re reflecting, planning, or just trying to keep up, this episode will help you redefine what “enough” looks like for you in 2025. Plus, I’m spilling the details on some of the exciting things coming to BOP this year—including our first in-person event!

Take a deep breath—you’ve got this. ✨

In this episode, we dive deep into the difference between "easy" and "ease"—and why building a life and business with ease doesn't mean avoiding ambition or hard work.

Tiffany Napper, a business consultant, keynote speaker, and resilience advocate who helps founders grow wildly profitable businesses without burnout, shares her journey from PR powerhouse (working with icons like Elton John and Disney) to trusted advisor for six- and seven-figure companies, and opens up about loss, resilience, and her mission to help women thrive with both ambition and ease. You'll hear about her unique lifestyle (living on a yacht!), her "Soft CEO Era," and practical ways to lead, rest, and build a business that feels good from the inside out.
