In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Shara Downey to talk about what it looks like to build a life guided by values rather than certainty.

Shara reflects on her journey as a chiropractor, entrepreneur, and mother, and the courage it takes to make big transitions — including relocating internationally — without having every step mapped out. She shares how lived experience has shaped the way she leads, makes decisions, and builds a business that supports the life she wants.

This conversation explores embodied leadership, trusting yourself through change, and choosing alignment over urgency.

We cover:

• Trusting yourself through major life transitions
• Relocating internationally and starting fresh
• Building a values-aligned business
• Motherhood and leadership
• Making decisions without a rigid plan
• Choosing alignment over urgency

Join us for a conversation about trusting yourself, choosing alignment, and building a life that actually fits.

In this deeply personal episode of When She Pivots, Lauren turns the microphone toward Cassie for a conversation about living through a year that required everything—and asked for very little certainty in return.

Cassie reflects on a season marked by profound loss, medical challenges with her daughter, welcoming a new baby, and navigating a home build—all at the same time. Rather than forcing clarity or rushing toward a reinvention, she shares how she learned to surrender to what the season was asking of her.

Through this conversation, the idea of a “pivot” is gently redefined—not as movement or momentum, but as presence. As quiet work. As trusting the unfolding of who you’re becoming, even when the path forward isn’t clear.

This episode is an offering for anyone in a season of holding, healing, and listening—rather than pushing.

In this episode, Lauren and Cassie explore:

• Living through overlapping seasons of loss, change, and responsibility
• Letting go of the pressure to “figure it out”
• Redefining pivots as internal shifts rather than external moves
• The quiet work of becoming
• Honoring seasons that are not meant for acceleration

If you find yourself resisting stillness—or questioning why you don’t feel ready for the next step—this conversation is a reminder: sometimes the most meaningful pivots happen when you stop forcing them.

Naha Pandya has mastered the art of the pivot. From building a successful wedding planning business, to becoming a licensed physical therapist, and now launching The Recovery Method — a provider community supporting pregnant and postpartum moms — Naha’s journey is a powerful reminder that reinvention isn’t just possible — it’s an essential part of how we grow, shift, and step into the next version of ourselves.

In this episode, we chat about trusting your gut, evolving through different life seasons, and how excellence in one chapter doesn’t limit what you can create in the next.

We talk honestly about what it means to change direction — and why it’s worth it.
