We want to answer that question with more questions :) Andrew returns as he and Arianna talk about the questions they realized they needed to ask to get the ball rolling and to start from a similar place of understanding. Meet our guest: Andrew Painchaud is a jack of all trades master of none, though oftentimes better than master of one. He takes a deep dive into topics that interest him and often leads him to being an aspiring expert in a widespread of topics (see investing, real estate, trains, Liverpool FC, American War History, and several historical figures). In his day to day, Andrew is a truck driver working with a company that specializes in LTL, but his favorite part of work is the people. Between the folks he works with to the small business owners he meets and supports each day, he’s found a passion in building relationships. Most recently, he’s started a business in real estate investment, Echo Investments and Properties, LLC. He’s excited to be intentionally investing in the community he lives in and learning more about all the neighborhoods that make Indianapolis the vibrantly, diverse, growing city it is.

Due to popular demand and conversations being had this month, we're bringing back our Mindset series with Arianna. Continuing the conversation is Karen Leigh. They talk about normalizing the discussion of trauma, techniques to start journaling/reflecting with yourself first, how to lean on others, the specifics and benefits of hypnotherapy, and more. Karen Leigh feels passionately about all of us experiencing true self-belief and self-worth. It would seem that a series of events that could be called coincidences, pulled Karen Leigh down the rabbit hole of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), hypnotherapy, and the power of our subconscious mind. Speaking to students at colleges around Scotland, Karen Leigh provides them with tools and hacks to navigate anxiety and explains where our limiting beliefs come from and how we can switch them into empowering beliefs. She founded the Soul Sanctuary with mindfulness classes in Glasgow, Scotland, which eventually turned into her own space, Soul Sanctuary HQ. She has since appeared on several podcasts, sharing her own personal challenges and triumphs, as well as her wisdom and motivation for those who wish to tap into their inner power. We're thrilled to have you joining us today. If you haven't yet, be sure to subscribe and share this conversation with a friend. The best way to support us is by sharing what we do.

Welcome to Let's Talk MORE on Monday. We are continuing our series of being joined by contributors from Issue IX of MORE which centers around identity and what it means to each of us. Today we are joined by Aubry, the creative director and photographer for Reclaiming Girlhood, and past contributor Hannah, who runs a blog and social media focused around portraying herself as a woman in the world. These women discuss what girlhood means to them, how they express it in their daily lives, and how female friendships shape our perceptions of ourselves, our world, and our value in it. Meet our guests: Aubry Miller (she/her) is a portrait, travel, and concert photographer and videographer based in Indianapolis. Known for her ability to capture authentic moments and compelling stories, her work features vibrant, natural edits that bring her subjects to life. Aubry's passion lies in creating imagery that resonates emotionally, blending artistry with a keen eye for detail. Hannah Jordan is a full-time blogger and part-time connoisseur of all things girly and pretty (but to pay the bills, she works in fraternal housing). She's never met a plaid or plant she didn't like. You'll most likely find her snuggling on the couch with her dog Oswin and a book, or out at brunch with a mimosa in her hand. Here we work to Make Opportunities Reachable for Everyone by curating content to educate, inspire, and call you to action. Your action might look different compared to your friend’s, and that’s okay. We want to meet you where you are and start a conversation. Together, we are finding brilliant ways to Make Opportunities Reachable for Everyone. I’m thrilled to have you joining us today. If you haven’t yet, be sure to follow this podcast and share it with a friend. You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, Linkedin, and Pinterest. Wherever we are, we welcome you to join us.

We are continuing our series of being joined by contributors from Issue IX of MORE which centers around identity and what it means to each of us. Maria Berglund of InKind Boxes and Lissa Prudencio of Wealth for Women of Color, both featured in Issue IX: Identity's piece "Women Setting the Table", give us insight into this piece and the meaningful work they do everyday. This feature is our inaugural recognition of Women Setting the Table. After we launched our Save a Seat Campaign, these women came to mind as we realized it was Time to Set the Table. Our Save a Seat Campaign is a way for our community to invest in MORE as an individual rather than only having our business-to-business partnerships as options. This recognition features women we see in the community creating pathways and opportunities for those looking for a seat at the tables in their communities. They are creating spaces and welcoming others to join them. Social impact is often an afterthought in a world where ‘hustle’ culture and ‘get-rich-quick’ business are common. These women are dedicated to enriching their communities through their businesses and helping others bloom. From postpartum gift boxes to financial independence, these women are setting the table–not only for themselves but for women everywhere. Meet our guests: Lissa Prudencio is a Los Angeles-based personal finance expert, podcast host, panel speaker, and accredited financial counselor on a mission to make wealth-building more accessible to historically marginalized groups. She is the founder of Wealth for Women of Color and offers financial coaching, education programs, and content creation. Maria Berglund is a Canadian mom of three wonderful boys, who has lived in Oregon since 2013. Her work as the founder of In Kind Boxes has been featured both on Good Morning America and in Entrepreneur Magazine. We are thrilled to have you joining us today.
