• Ep 210: Wandia Chiuri: Turn Your Executive Authority Into Measurable Business Results
    2026/07/23

    Wandia Chiuri is in the business of turning a leader's authority into measurable business results. She is the CEO and founder of Reactionpower, where she works with executives at the highest levels of corporate America. She has spent more than two decades at the intersection of AI, leadership, and strategy, taking her from Medtronic to Eli Lilly to Google, Samsung, and Johnson & Johnson, with a company she built and sold along the way.

    What she discovered at those companies drove why she built her business. Audiences had become blind to ads. Great products were going undiscovered. And she noticed that when a leader spoke, something measurable happened: products would sell, customers would get inspired, leads converted into sales. A leader's authority was outperforming advertising by 10x. So she focused her new company Reactionpower on executives.

    In this conversation, Wandia and Sarah get into the failure that taught her the power of a brand, and what stays irreplaceably human as AI reshapes leadership. Wandia shares the story of selling her first company with $1.39 in her bank account, watching the buyer resell it within three months for close to 40 times what she was paid, and spending the next 10 years learning exactly why. She talks about her mother, who came of age during the state of emergency in Kenya and still built a life of adventure, optimism, and service at scale.

    Two friends and fellow Entrepreneurs Organization members, talk about what it takes to build authority, trust, and a life that is authentically yours. Recorded live on LinkedIn.

  • Ep 209: Elizabeth Garvish and How She Built the Happiest Law Firm in America
    2026/07/09

    Elizabeth Garvish is the founder of Garvish Immigration Law Group, an all-female firm named one of the fastest-growing in the country five consecutive years, with a specialty in medical immigration and a place among the nation's leading immigration lawyers. She is on a mission to run the happiest law firm in America.

    She is the granddaughter of Hungarian immigrants who fell in love with the language and culture of America. She turned that love into a calling, helping people and companies build their lives and futures in the United States.

    Along the way, she trademarked a way of working she calls “Practicing Law with Love”, built on one conviction she has tested over and over: your energy and what you believe creates your reality, in the courtroom and in your life. In this conversation, she shares the formula her firm now runs on: Know the law, recite the facts, expect miracles, and the cases where it looked like the client would lose, to them holding their green card. She opens up about the day she walked away from the big law partner track after a review that tried to stereotype her as too flashy, too loud, doesn’t fit in, even though she’d brought in huge books of business. Why happiness comes down to two things. How she built a life she loves while raising four kids and moving her family to Spain. And the time a doctor told her that her last two embryos were damaged and gave them just a thirty percent chance, despite that, she calmly decided that she was not going to believe him. Her twin girls just turned three.

    If you know you are meant for more, this one is for you.

  • Ep 208: Brent Peterson: How a 1,500 Day Streak Became His Secret to Building in an AI World
    2026/07/02

    What happens when an entrepreneur who helped build the e-commerce internet, bets his entire next company on the one thing everyone else is racing to automate away?

    Brent Peterson, founder, host of the Talk Commerce podcast, and the endurance athlete behind 34 marathons and an Ironman, taught himself software, went all in on building his company Magento in 2009, and grew it with his wife Susan, into a globally recognized agency before selling in 2021. Then, instead of coasting on a beach in Hawaii, he made a contrarian bet: that humans belong at the center of content creation, right as the rest of the world handed it all to AI.

    In this episode, Brent gets refreshingly honest about the chapter few entrepreneurs want to talk about, what it feels like to sell your company and then work for someone else. He shares how he once ran a lifestyle business for four hours a day, and why he is convinced that AI will not replace you. He now builds human-led content with a simple rule: a human reads it; before a human reads it. Plus the daily streak he has kept alive for more than 1,500 days, and what it taught him about building anything for the long term.

  • Ep 207: Justin Nassiri: How a 3x Founder Built a Life of Freedom, Presence, and Purpose
    2026/06/18

    Justin Nassiri has lived more reinventions than most. Naval Academy engineer, nuclear submarine officer, Stanford MBA, three-time founder. In this episode, he sits down with Sarah to talk about the conviction at the heart of everything he's built: leading publicly isn't vanity; it's leadership, and the leaders worth hearing from are often the ones who'd rather just do the work.

    They get into the counterintuitive truth: Almost none of the 400+ executives Justin coaches wanted the spotlight. Why bringing your full self is what draws people in. Justin shares a hundred-million-dollar decision that you can learn from, the belief he carried for years and had to unlearn. What success feels like from the inside now. Also, the daily mantra that moves him from stuck to "I'll figure it out." If you've ever told yourself you'd share your voice once you were ready, this is the one for you.

  • Ep 206: Case Kenny: How to Turn Optimism Into Your Competitive Edge
    2026/05/14

    What if the difference between the life you have and the life you want comes down to a single word?

    In this episode of Rock Your Brain, Rock Your Life, we sat down with Case Kenny, host of the podcast New Mindset, Who Dis?, keynote speaker, and best-selling author. With two degrees in languages, which is where the obsession with words traces back to, he has grown into one of the most listened to self-improvement shows out there, including an Apple Podcasts top 30 show.

    You'll hear Case redefine optimism in a way that has nothing to do with butterflies and rainbows.

    Real optimism, he argues, is the belief that things can change. People can change, emotions can change, industries can change, and so can you.

    He shares how he rebranded patience as faith because patience felt too passive for his ambition, and how that single reframe became a quiet anchor through years of building his company.

    Case opens up about the moment he quit his cozy senior sales job after eight years to become an e- commerce entrepreneur. How he experienced hockey stick growth selling guided journals using paid ads, and then watched the Apple iOS privacy changes nearly take his e-commerce business down while he was cutting $300K inventory checks. He talks honestly about rejection (which he says is 80% of the work of being an entrepreneur, even with close to 2 million followers), about the "end of history illusion" that tricks us into thinking we're done evolving, and why the least permanent thing about yourself is yourself.

    If you've ever felt the tension between ambition and peace, between grinding and trusting, this conversation will give you the words and the reframes to hold both.

    Press play. Grab a red felt pen and a piece of paper. You'll be taking notes within minutes.

  • Ep 205: From Zero to 6-Figures + a Calm Nervous System | How Founder Denise Gosnell Created Success With Conviction + Ease in 90 Days
    2026/01/22

    In this deeply human episode, my client Founder and CEO Denise Gosnell shares how she went from zero revenue and feeling the constant pressure to prove herself, to building a multiple 6-figure business, and finally feeling calm in her own skin, all in just 90 days!

    You’ll hear what it looks like when a high-achieving executive stops leading from fear and starts creating from deep conviction in herself. For Denise, that meant forgiving and releasing the patterns from society and family that kept her chasing more success, and learning to trust herself again.

    This is not another “success story.” It’s a blueprint for the new paradigm of leadership: where your results expand as you come into deeper alignment with who you truly are.

    Because when you stop second-guessing every move, pushing through exhaustion, and trying to prove your worth, you start leading from trust instead of anxiety. And that’s when your results come with ease. The big revenue goals, the deeper love, the grounded calm you’ve craved to feel every day….they all start to unfold.

  • Ep 204: When Success Leaves You Empty: Rebuilding Identity, Confidence, and Clarity with CEO + Entrepreneur Susan
    2025/08/14

    When Susan sold her company, she thought she’d find freedom and clarity. Instead, she woke up to an unsettling truth: she’d lost her momentum, her confidence, and even her sense of identity.

    This was the woman who once built physical tools to help people get “unstuck”, and now she was the one in the quicksand.

    Inside ICONIC, Susan learned to stop chasing the “perfect answer” and start testing possibilities in real time. From coaching clients to taking on advisory and fractional roles. She let go of a self-imposed deadline to have it all figured out, and instead worked on choosing the next better belief and feeling, even on days when optimism felt out of reach.

    You’ll hear how she rewired her mind to spiral up! Instead of down, cleared her home and office to reflect her new calm, and reclaimed the deep belief that her next exciting chapter is already unfolding.

    Her message now? Write your own damn permission slip! And never wait for someone else to hand it to you.

  • Ep 203: Greatest Hits: Raising Millions Was ‘Unreasonable’ Until John Changed One Thought
    2025/07/17

    What if your biggest block to raising money, or being the powerful leader you’re dying to be isn’t strategy, but your brain?

    In this episode, founder John Cavanaugh shares how he went from exhausted, broke, and doubtful, to raising half a million dollars in one ask. And doing it with ease.

    We don’t praise the hustle and grind culture in my podcast. Because it’s the fastest path to burnout.

    This episode isn’t the “money mindset” affirmation fluff you see online.

    This story is about changing your relationship with money and what you believe is possible around raising money.

    And for John it happened in one session with me, with one thought. Yup, mind blowing! And this is the fast transformation we do around here.
