Episode 218 drops this week with the incomparable, Annie Yatch.

3 things you will learn from this episode:

1️⃣ Why willpower is the wrong tool for the job

The subconscious patterns running your leadership, your decisions, and your relationships have nothing to do with how hard you try. Annie breaks down what's actually in the driver's seat.

2️⃣ How your nervous system is quietly capping your income

Before you hire another strategist or build another funnel, you need to know this. The ceiling isn't in your business plan. It's in your biology.

3️⃣ Why your most important relationship is either your greatest asset or your greatest liability

Annie works with visionary women and power couples who have everything on paper and are still stuck. This episode will show you exactly why, and what to do about it.

What do you get when you combine
🥣 a former counterterrorism analyst for the Defense Intelligence Agency
🥣 the founder of three seven-figure businesses
🥣 fifteen years of helping high-achieving entrepreneurs break through the subconscious patterns that are quietly capping their income, their leadership, and their love life
🥣 a methodology so effective that clients say one session feels like thirty years of therapy

You get Annie Yatch.

She didn't just study what makes leaders break down. She figured out what makes them break through, and built an entire methodology around it.

It's a big week in the Dowd House with 2 kids shoving off for college but the Heartbeat for Hire podcast does NOT skip weeks!

This week, my friend Annie Yatch joins me, and she is a former counter terrorism analyst for the Defense Intelligence Agency. She has studied Navy SEAL,s, their behavior and their ability to execute tasks at hand. She has had 3 seven figure businesses, and the work she does now helps entrepreneurs break through plateaus to experience a leveling up like no other.

We talk about willpower, the importance of a supportive partner, and what makes her clients come back for more.

It's a beautiful conversation and she's one impressive human. I can't wait for you to tune in.

Wish me luck, this week. I won't be around much as I'll be present with my twins and their big new chapters.

Thank you for 9 wonderful years. You brought us so much joy and we will love you forever 🐾🤍 Rest easy Pansy

Episode 217 drops today with the incredible duo Carla Hall and Deb Riegel!

It's not every day I take on 2 guests but when I realized I could with these two, I leapt at the chance.

3 things you'll learn from this episode:

1️⃣ Personal development doesn't have to feel like homework.
Carla and Deb built The MeMenu to turn growth into something you actually want to sit down for.

2️⃣ Joy and rigor aren't opposites.
One brings the warmth of a kitchen, the other brings the research. Together it actually sticks.

3️⃣ The best leadership advice sounds nothing like leadership advice.
Sometimes it sounds like a recipe. Sometimes it sounds like "Hootie Hoo."

What do you get when you combine:

🥣 A Top Chef fan favorite with a catchphrase so iconic people yell it back at her in airports
🥣 A Wharton professor with a master's in Applied Positive Psychology and zero patience for boring leadership advice
🥣 Seven years co-hosting The Chew, mixed with two decades coaching executives who thought they already knew how to lead
🥣 A woman who turned modeling into a cooking empire, and a woman who turned research into real change
🥣 Bylines in Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and Psychology Today, next to cookbooks that made people actually want to cook

You get Carla Hall and Deborah Grayson Riegel, co-creators of The MeMenu, and today's guests on Heartbeat for Hire.

This episode is a delight on so many levels. I hope you tune in!

Episode 216 drops today with the amazing, Jacquelyn Fletcher Johnson.

3 things you will learn from this episode:

1️⃣ Your story is a leadership tool, not a nice extra.
Jacque built an entire career on the idea that the right story moves people to act, and she'll break down how to find the one that actually works for you.

2️⃣ Executive presence isn't about being the loudest person in the room.
She's coached leaders inside Amazon, Salesforce, Target and Visa, and she'll get into what separates a message that lands with a boardroom from one that just fills the air.

3️⃣ You can build a stage even if nobody hands you one.
From launching the Gateway Gathering & Pitch Fest to writing 14 books, Jacque is proof that visibility is something you create, not something you wait for.

What do you get when you combine:
🥣 A communication strategist who's whispered in the ears of Amazon, Salesforce, Target, and Visa
🥣 A conference designer who built her own stage instead of waiting for one
🥣 An author with 14 books and no plans to slow down
🥣 A dragon boat racer paddling alongside a gold medal team of breast cancer survivors

You get Jacquelyn Fletcher Johnson, Founder of Heartwood Leadership Institute, and today's guest on Heartbeat for Hire.
She turns ideas into stories that actually move people, and she's about to turn this episode into one too.
