Let’s talk about talking about money. 💰

Women need to get comfortable talking about money, talking about salaries, rates, what we charge, and what we’re worth.

We also need to get comfortable calling out the silence around money. We love this callout from guest, Cerys Goodall.

When your friend undersells herself? Say something. When a woman apologizes before naming her price? Point it out.

The discomfort around money talk doesn’t just hurt our bank accounts; it keeps us underinformed and undervalued.

We can’t negotiate in the dark. We can’t build wealth in silence. And we definitely can’t close gaps we’re too polite to acknowledge.

So yes, learn to talk about money. But also? Learn to say “We need to talk about money” out loud. That’s where real change starts.

Who’s ready to make this conversation the norm?

Our latest episode is LIVE, and it’s a powerful one.

Join Raven O’Neal for a profound conversation with Chicago Bo***ir Photography owner and photographer, Liz Hansen .bo***ir, as they pull back the curtain on a world far deeper than just lace and lighting.

This isn’t just a talk about photography; it’s a discussion about revolution. Liz shares her incredible personal journey into this intimate art form and explains how a bo***ir session creates a sacred, safe space for women to silence the noise of societal expectations and rediscover their own strength.

We delve into the real reasons women walk into the studio, from marking a personal milestone to reclaiming their body after life-altering events. We explore the powerful “Maiden, Mother, and Crone” archetypes and how bo***ir beautifully documents a woman’s journey through every stage of life.

Plus, we get real about the business side, the importance of hyper-personalization, and why the client’s vision always leads the way, even in the editing process.

If you’ve ever been curious about bo***ir, questioned its power, or are simply seeking a story of fierce self-acceptance, this episode is for you.

Just wrapped an incredible conversation with , the person behind Reality Blurred and president of the Television Critics Association.

We pulled back the curtain on the reality TV industry that has shaped our screens and culture for over 25 years. Here’s what we unpacked:

From voyeuristic entertainment to complex social mirrors, where is the genre headed next?

The uncomfortable truth about how economic pressures shape every storyline, edit, and narrative.

Why diversity isn’t just about casting, but about who’s holding the cameras and making the editing decisions.

In an age of curated content, what does “real” even mean anymore?

Andy left us with a powerful challenge: First, ask, “How would you respond to these characters as friends?” This question completely reframes how we consume content. Are we watching humans or just entertainment products?

Are we ready for more authentic reality content, or are we too invested in the drama?
