The way we sell, market, and structure our offers either upholds oppressive systems or actively works to dismantle them.

    I’ve seen some of Simone’s posts in the past but now that I’ve found her podcast I couldn’t stop listening. I love coming across people who share my values, affirm the best in me and also give me the right kick in the butt with their words!

  • Simone always has something interesting to share both about business and about navigating life. Because really they aren't separate at all. Highly recommend.

  • The world needs more of this

    Just finished listening to ep. 38 on the Spiritual-to-MAGA pipeline and am slow clapping internally. One of the more nuanced explanations I’ve encountered. Thank you so much for your work, Simone! 🙏🏼

  • I don’t even have a bizz right now now

    But I love listening to Simone’s podcasts and taking her courses. I learn a lot. I want to do my part to make the world a better place and sometimes I feel lost on the how, the motivation, the hopefulness. The mindset shifts I get from Simone helps me move forward and helps me get unstuck and overwhelmed on what to do or how to be. So grateful that a former teacher recommend her content!!

  • Thrilling Business Wisdom for Leftists

    I’ve been following Simone’s content on Instagram for a year or two, and I’m thrilled to see this in the world (via my ears ~ ). As a small business owner who’s trying to change the world for the better her insight, perspective, and wisdom is like a breath of fresh air. I’ve had to hold my nose through way too many Biz Bros content for far too long. After only 2 1/2 episodes I’m hooked and can’t wait to engage further.
