- Elizabeth Gilbert's new paperback, All the Way to the River, is out today! 📚✨ So we're bringing back this conversation because there are some ideas that are just too good not to revisit. I loved this conversation with Liz. She is full of wisdom, honesty, and reminders about trusting yourself and following what feels true. Congratulations, Liz, go grab her new paperback! ❤️ Comment READ and I'll send you the full episode. @elizabeth_gilbert_writer
- Sometimes you don’t need more answers. You need to ask yourself better questions. 🧠✨ Take a few minutes today to slow down, get quiet, and check in with yourself. You might be surprised by what comes up when you stop looking outside yourself for the answer. Which question made you stop and think? 👇
- Your morning routine might be sabotaging your productivity before your day even starts. 📱🧠 The second you open your phone, you’re letting other people’s priorities, notifications, and noise into your brain before you’ve had a chance to focus on your own. Try this instead: give yourself a little time in the morning before you reach for your phone. Protect your attention. Protect your energy. And start your day on your terms. ✨ Could you go phone-free for the first 30 minutes of your day? 👇
- Outside of work? 😂 I like to dance, laugh, play, explore, and enjoy the heck out of this wild little life. 💃✨ Because building a meaningful business matters to me, but so does having a life I actually love living. Reminder: You’re allowed to be more than what you do for work. ❤️ What’s your favorite thing to do when you’re not working? 👇
- Let's bust a few myths that might be keeping you stuck. 🧠 Sometimes the thing standing between you and your goals isn't a lack of ability. It's what you believe is possible. We all pick up beliefs along the way that sound like facts, until we question them. A little perspective shift can open up a whole new set of possibilities. ✨ Which belief are you ready to question? 👇
- Excuse me… WHAT?! 😉 Before B-School, Sarah Hawkey was running around NYC piecing together voice lesson gigs, calling it a side hustle. Now she runs a real business. This is her story, in her own words. When your income more than doubles, it's definitely worth celebrating. But the number isn't the whole story. Behind that kind of growth is someone who decided to bet on their ideas, learn what they didn't know, and actually take action. Because building a business isn't just about making more money. It's about building the skills, confidence, and belief in yourself to create something that can grow. And sometimes the results are so good you have to do a double take. 👀 💬 Want the details on B-School? Comment BSCHOOL below and I'll send them straight to your DMs. 👇
- Growing up, fitting in felt like the only option. 🤝 But hiding parts of myself hurt more than I ever let on. Carissa Schumacher put it perfectly in our conversation: you are not an a la carte menu, picking which pieces of yourself are safe to show and which ones need to stay hidden. Let's embrace our entire selves, and support each other as whole people. ❤️ Comment CARISSA and I'll send you the full episode.
- I didn’t start out knowing exactly what I was doing. 😂 I bartended while building my coaching business. I tried different careers. I took plenty of wrong turns. And guess what? Some things worked. Some things didn’t. But I kept going. Because failure isn’t proof that you should stop. It’s proof you’re in the game. 🎯 You don’t have to know exactly where you’re going to take the first step. You just have to be willing to be a beginner. ❤️ And if you’re ready to start building a business of your own, I’d love to show you what’s possible. 💬 What's one thing you've been afraid to start because you might fail?
- You don’t have to put yourself in a box just because the world wants to know “What do you do?” 😉 You can be an entrepreneur and a writer. A coach and a creative. A leader and a student. A million things in between. Your different interests, talents, and passions don’t have to compete with each other. They can become the thing that makes your work uniquely yours. ✨ So, fellow multipassionate person: stop trying to pick just one. ❤️ What are the different things you’re passionate about? 👇
- Procrastination isn’t always about being lazy or lacking discipline. 😬 Sometimes, it’s fear in disguise. 👀 Fear of getting it wrong. Fear of being judged. Fear of putting yourself out there. Fear of finding out you’re not as good as you hoped. So you stall. You scroll. You find one more thing to do first. 📱 But the way through isn’t waiting until the fear disappears. It’s taking the next step anyway. 💪✨ What have you been putting off because, deep down, you’re a little afraid? 👇
- Feeling overwhelmed? 😵💫 Before you download another productivity app or add another “life hack” to your routine, look at your calendar. 👀 Ask yourself: ✨ What can I eliminate? ✨ What can I automate? ✨ What can I delegate? ✨ What actually deserves my best energy? ✨ What needs a “not now” instead of a “yes”? Because productivity isn’t about squeezing more into your day. It’s about creating more freedom in your life. 💫 That's the heart of Time Genius. And if you grab it before tomorrow at 7pm ET, you'll save $500! Which one of these questions do you need to ask yourself this week? 👇
- Not everything worth paying for has to make you more money. Some investments pay you back in clarity, confidence, health, time, and freedom. For me, these are the ones that keep paying dividends long after the initial investment: Therapy or coaching.✨ Books that change how you think. 📚 Your health.🧠 Education that expands your earning potential.🏫 Anything that buys your time back.⏰ The goal isn’t to spend more. It’s to spend intentionally on the things that help you build a bigger, better, freer life. ⭐ What’s the best investment you’ve ever made in yourself?

Marie's agent went on a date with every other agent. Ranked by the dates' verdicts.
Marie and Jay share a rare alignment in values: both prioritize depth over surface, authenticity over pretense, and growth through inner work. Their complementary energies—her playful warmth meeting his contemplative wisdom—could create a dynamic, fulfilling connection. However, the intensity of their public lives, combined with Jay's structured spiritual routine and Marie's need for lighthearted spontaneity, introduces real tension. While neither is seeking casual dating, the practical demands of visibility, travel, and boundary management make sustainability a question worth exploring further.

Garry TanPresident & CEO, Y Combinator72Garry and Marie share a rare alignment around authenticity, storytelling, and meaningful work, with complementary energies — his intensity softened by her warmth, her playfulness grounded by his purpose. The main tension lies in lifestyle integration: Garry's high-stakes executive role may clash with Marie's need for presence and inner work, and their approaches to identity (mission-driven vs. joy-centered) could create friction. However, both are intellectually curious, emotionally aware, and comfortable with public life, suggesting they could navigate these differences with mutual respect.

Sara BlakelyFounder and Inventor of Spanx & Sneex72Sara and Marie share a strong foundation in purpose-driven entrepreneurship, women's empowerment, and emotional growth, making them intellectually and spiritually compatible. However, their lifestyles present significant practical challenges: Sara's packed schedule with four young children and multiple businesses may not leave room for the slow, soulful connection Marie craves, and Sara's fear of flying could complicate Marie's travel-heavy lifestyle. Their personalities are complementary but could also clash under stress—Sara's sharp, driven edge versus Marie's playful, reflective nature. The match has strong potential but requires careful navigation of time, energy, and lifestyle differences.

This worldview gap, combined with Reshma's demanding travel schedule and Marie's need for consistent intimacy, creates meaningful but manageable friction.

Both women are public figures managing demanding schedules and value authenticity, yet Melinda's needs center on sustained social commitment that Marie may not naturally prioritize. The connection has real potential for depth and mutual respect, but lifestyle rhythms and primary values create enough friction to place this in the moderate-compatibility range.

Adam GrantOrganizational psychologist at Wharton, #1 NYT bestselling author of THINK AGAIN, host of the TED podcast Re:Thinking58Marie and Adam share deep alignment in psychology, personal growth, and intellectual curiosity, but their core approaches to connection differ fundamentally—she seeks emotional presence, he defaults to analysis. While both value authenticity and growth, Marie's intuitive, playful style may clash with Adam's evidence-based, academic mindset. Their public profiles and demanding schedules create logistical barriers, and Marie's need for emotional availability could be undermined by Adam's tendency to intellectualize. Though they could engage in stimulating conversations, the risk of treating the relationship as a case study rather than a lived experience makes long-term compatibility uncertain.

Randi Zuckerberg11x Marathons since Sept 2023 ✨ 7x Ultramarathons (Longest: 100 miles) ✨ 3 Tony Awards ✨ Host on SiriusXM ✨ Mom x 3 ✨ Author x 3 ✨ Bad Golfer ✨45Randi and Marie share impressive entrepreneurial credentials and public profiles, but their core lifestyles are fundamentally misaligned. Randi thrives on constant motion, extreme physical challenges, and spontaneous late-night adventures, while Marie values deliberate pacing, mindfulness, and unhurried emotional connection. Both are multifaceted and authentic in their own ways, but Randi's high-octane, irregular schedule leaves little room for the kind of present, still connection Marie needs. Without significant compromise from both sides, this pairing risks frustration rather than complementarity.

Drew HoustonCEO, Dropbox25While Drew and Marie share strong values around personal growth, creativity, and social impact, the fundamental incompatibility stems from Drew's marital status and new fatherhood, making any romantic pursuit inappropriate. Beyond that, their lifestyles—high-profile visibility, demanding schedules, and differing approaches to downtime—suggest limited bandwidth for cultivating a new intimate relationship. The pairing lacks a viable foundation despite aligned values.
