In this special flip series episode, I sit down with my dear friend Lindsey Schwartz for an honest, expansive conversation about leadership, identity, and what it really takes to build meaningful success without abandoning yourself along the way. We talk about how seasons of growth often require shedding old expectations, redefining ambition, and trusting the inner knowing that calls you toward more alignment—not more pressure. Lindsey shares her journey of evolving as a leader, embracing uncertainty, and choosing purpose over perfection. Together, we explore boundaries, self-trust, and why slowing down, listening deeply, and honoring your values can actually create more impact, not less. This episode is for the woman who feels herself changing, who’s ready to lead with clarity and conviction, and who wants her life and business to reflect who she truly is becoming.

In this special flip episode, I join my friend Danielle Amos for a grounded, honest conversation about growth, leadership, and what it really looks like to build a business that supports your life—not consumes it. We talk about redefining success beyond hustle, releasing the pressure to constantly do more, and creating sustainable rhythms that honor both ambition and wellbeing. I share how my own definition of success has evolved over the years, why capacity matters more than speed, and how clarity, boundaries, and intentional choices create long-term impact. Danielle and I explore the mindset shifts required to scale without burnout, lead with integrity, and trust that slowing down can actually move you forward faster.

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Samantha Skelly for a deeply honest conversation about identity, presence, and what it really means to lead from your highest self. We talk about releasing performative success, why boredom in business can actually be a sign of regulation and alignment, and how creative play outside of your work can unlock your next level of clarity and fulfillment. I share my philosophy on identity-based messaging, why serving a former version of yourself can cap your growth, and how speaking to the highest version of your client creates cleaner energy, stronger resonance, and more aligned opportunities. We also explore embodiment, aspiration-based messaging, and the simple but powerful practice I return to daily: be her now. This episode is for the woman who feels herself evolving, who’s ready to stop shrinking or over-explaining, and who wants her business, message, and life to finally feel as aligned as the woman she’s becoming.

But most of the time it's not corralled.” - Julie Solomon  “   I don't subscribe to pain based marketing. Like whenever people do that and I get an email like that, I'm like, get outta here. Like that's literally how I feel. I'm like, Ugh.

In this solo episode, I explore a powerful shift that’s been reshaping my life and leadership: moving from owning my blessings to truly stewarding them. I share how a simple but confronting truth—“It’s not good stewardship to complain about what God has already given you”—led me to reevaluate the way I was approaching my marriage, business, faith, and daily peace. Through honest reflections on success, comparison, and control, I walk you through the difference between routine and practice, ownership and stewardship, and why happiness isn’t something we chase—it’s something we notice. I also share the daily gratitude rituals and spiritual practices that have grounded me in presence, softened my ambition, and brought peace back into my home, my work, and my identity. If you're ready to release pressure, reconnect to what’s already here, and lead from a deeper place of trust, this episode will feel like coming home. Liked this episode?

At one point in my life, every single one of those things was something I prayed for, and now they're part of my everyday reality. But somewhere along the way, I stopped treating them like miracles, and I started treating them like they were something that needed maintenance. And that's where the gratitude gap begins.” - Julie Solomon  “  There are three things that will steal your gratitude faster than anything else. Money, property, and prestige. When you put yourself in the driver's seat of those three. When you start idolizing your money, your property, or your prestige, things start to get shaky. Because that's when you start thinking you are the source of it all instead of the steward.” - Julie Solomon RESOURCES: ✨ Unscripted: My First In-Person Retreat in 2+ Years — Now Accepting Applications If you’ve felt your voice no longer matches the woman you’ve become, this intimate 2-day retreat in Nashville (Feb 5–6, 2026) is for you.

In this week’s episode, I am opening up about the surprising fear that can surface when everything you prayed for finally arrives — the clients, the clarity, the calm — and how your nervous system often needs time to catch up to your blessings. I share my personal shift from owning my business to stewarding it, and how that single mindset change has rewritten my entire relationship with work, worthiness, and leadership. We explore why striving creates ceilings, why stewardship creates capacity, and how to lead from your highest identity instead of your hustling self. Through personal stories, client breakthroughs, spiritual lessons, and practical tools like “the pause,” outreach calls, and my weekly Highest Self Filter, I will walk you through the inner recalibration required to hold more without hustling more. This is an episode for the woman who feels change rising inside her, who knows she's outgrown her old way of working, and who’s ready to lead with clarity, peace, and faith instead of pressure.

It happens in the practice.” - Julie Solomon  “ There was a time when I wore busyness, like a badge of honor. My working self was addicted to being useful. She said yes to everything because she believed saying no would make her irrelevant. Every yes was just proof that she could handle it. Every late night email was this quiet audition for worthiness, but worthiness doesn't live in overdrive. It lives in peace, and peace doesn't prove.

But there was a victimhood to that because if I believed that I was being taken advantage of, I could then be resentful to be taken advantage of, which would then just perpetuate the narrative of, well, Julie just has to do it herself. No one's gonna show up for her. She's just gotta do it. Which would then keep me in the driver's seat and in control, which would continue to perpetuate that narrative.” - Julie Solomon  “  Our minds are wired for survival, and if you have trauma, they're doubly wired for survival, right? Because you had to make it through a really unsafe environment that you were growing up in, or some event that happened that you had to survive. And so your mind is almost more programmed to keep you alive and to be hypervigilant. I work with a lot of people with PTSD and so we're deprogramming a lot of that and, and we're having to build safety and trust with it. And the other thing that we have to do is we have to befriend this part of us.” - Joy Shaw GUEST RESOURCES: Website: https://www.joyshaw.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/alchemizewithjoy RESOURCES: ✨ Unscripted: My First In-Person Retreat in 2+ Years — Now Accepting Applications If you’ve felt your voice no longer matches the woman you’ve become, this intimate 2-day retreat in Nashville (Feb 5–6, 2026) is for you.

In this episode, I sit down with Fiona Walsh for a powerful conversation about healing the nervous system, releasing old protective patterns, and stepping into your next-level identity with clarity and confidence. Fiona shares how emotional imprints from childhood and past experiences shape the way we lead, create, and communicate — and how somatic work can dissolve fear, overthinking, and self-sabotage at the root.

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Christina Galbato—entrepreneur, creator, and host of She’s WELLthy—for an honest and deeply personal conversation about growth, spirituality, and the courage it takes to start over. Christina opens up about walking away from her multi-million dollar online education business to rediscover who she truly is beyond her success and public identity. She shares how hitting rock bottom became the beginning of a profound spiritual awakening that transformed every part of her life—her work, friendships, and sense of peace. We talk about the messy middle of transformation, the beauty of letting go, and what it means to build a life that’s rooted in alignment rather than achievement. Christina also shares the practices that helped her rebuild—like meditation, surrender, and faith—and how she’s now leading with purpose, authenticity, and presence. If you’ve ever felt called to burn it all down and begin again, this episode will remind you that peace, power, and possibility are always waiting on the other side. Liked this episode?

Painting the picture of their life to be perfect and surrounding themselves with people that make them look good or earning a certain amount of money, and just hoping that those external things will soak in and make them happy when really it's about making your internal world aligned, calm, present joy within yourself, so that no matter what happens outside of you, you still remain in that state.” - Christina Galbato GUEST RESOURCES: IG: www.instagram.com/christinagalbato website: www.christinagalbato.com RESOURCES: 💡Just Launched: The Growth Collective: Monthly Coaching With Me—for just $1 Your content deserves to convert, not just be seen.

In this episode, I sit down with one of my dearest friends, Alyshia Ochse—an actress, writer, and host of That One Audition—for a deeply honest conversation about creativity, evolution, and what it means to live fully expressed. Alyshia and I go way back, and this conversation feels like sitting down with a sister to unpack the beautiful, messy process of growth. We talk about the “itchy” seasons that come before transformation, how success evolves with age and awareness, and the power of embracing stillness instead of forcing clarity. Alyshia shares how she’s learning to define success on her own terms, welcome the valleys with grace, and release patterns of people-pleasing to make room for deeper, more authentic relationships.

And, and when you kind of catch yourself trying to sand the edges of your decision making process, your soul, what you're okay with, what you're not okay with, to kind of fit something that no longer fits, then how do you give yourself the permission to accept that? Because a lot of people want to avoid that because it is grief. It is loss. It is you coming to terms and being honest with the fact that, oh, maybe I'm not supposed to be in a relationship with this person anymore. Maybe I'm not supposed to be friends with this person anymore. Maybe I'm not supposed to work with this person anymore.” - Julie Solomon  “  There's a deepening to my relationships, not only with my work, but with people, places and things, is just really learning how to show more of myself. It's really ironic to be in this profession where I'm seen, but I was hiding from being seen for so long, and I feel like I'm just starting to awaken.” - Alyshia Ochse GUEST RESOURCES: IG: @alyshiaochse website: www.alyshiaochse.com business: www.thebridgeforactors.com RESOURCES: 💡Just Launched: The Growth Collective: Monthly Coaching With Me—for just $1 Your content deserves to convert, not just be seen.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I sit down with my dear friend, Derek Warburton, for an intimate conversation about identity, community, healing, and light. Derek—an acclaimed media personality, fashion icon, and founder of Gurus Magazine—opens up about his journey from childhood adversity to building a life rooted in compassion, authenticity, and purpose. We talk about what it means to lead with heart, cultivate true friendships, and create lasting impact through service and connection. Derek shares raw insights on overcoming pain, embracing self-love, and finding strength in vulnerability. He also opens up about his friendship with Anne Heche, what her legacy taught him about grace and courage, and why being “the only,” not the best, is the key to true influence. This episode is a testament to the power of light—how it can emerge from even the darkest moments—and a reminder that community, authenticity, and love are what truly sustain us. Liked this episode?

In this solo episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of one of the most important seasons of my business and life—the quiet recalibration that happens when what once felt aligned no longer fits. This isn’t burnout or self-sabotage; it’s evolution. I share what it looked like to feel the nudge that it was time to rebuild, how I learned to sit in the silence instead of forcing clarity, and the courage it took to let go of offers, relationships, and dynamics that no longer matched who I was becoming. I also talk about how discernment—not drama—became the catalyst for my next level of alignment and what’s coming next for my business, my coaching containers, and this podcast. If you’ve been feeling the whisper that something in your world no longer feels true, this episode is your permission slip to pause, listen, and trust your knowing—because clarity always comes when you make space for it.

From my experience, sabotage feels like hiding. Shrinking. The fear of being seen. This was different. This was a gentle, grounded knowing of, this isn't it anymore.” - Julie Solomon  “  Everything that is starting to unfold, it finally matches my energy. Again, the energy of who I really am today. It doesn't feel forced. It doesn't feel scripted. It doesn't feel like I'm pretending to be someone or love something just because it works. It doesn't feel like I am forcing myself to do some kind of business in a certain way, or I've gotta do a launch this way, or I've gotta do this branded photo shoot this way, because that's what other people do. It's the kind of alignment that you just can't manufacture. And in order to get there, you have to make space for it.

In this episode, I sit down with my friend and founder of Pause Breathwork, Samantha Skelly, for a deeply honest and soulful conversation about evolution, alignment, and faith in both life and business. Samantha shares how her journey as an entrepreneur has transformed into a spiritual assignment—one rooted in artistry, service, and surrender. We talk about what it means to evolve past old versions of success, let go of what no longer feels aligned, and allow business to become a living, breathing expression of who you truly are. We also dive into the importance of slowing down, receiving support, and making peace with change. Samantha opens up about the role faith and prayer have played in her life, her return to her Christian roots, and how she’s learned to invite God into her business decisions. This episode is an inspiring reminder that your evolution is sacred, your alignment is your greatest strategy, and peace comes when you finally trust that you are exactly where you’re meant to be.

And so no matter if it's relationships, business, what have you, if there's something that just keeps being that spiritual sandpaper for you, you've gotta really ask yourself like, what am I tolerating here? And just simply put, raise the standard.” - Julie Solomon  “  I couldn't see a pathway of it being something else. And I think I had an ego layering on that because my ego was like, “well, surely we can't simplify because then the revenue will drop, and if the revenue drops, then we're not gonna continually grow. And what's that gonna do?” So I had to love fiercely, the part of me that was trying to take over by telling me to keep scaling and what I mean by that is like, not destroy it, not cut it off, not badmouth it, but just love the little girl inside of me that's like, “I wanna keep growing. What if I don't? Who am I gonna upset?” - Samantha Skelly  RESOURCES: 💡Just Launched: The Growth Collective: Monthly Coaching With Me—for just $1 Your content deserves to convert, not just be seen.

This episode marks a huge milestone—the official rebrand of this show from The Influencer Podcast to Woman of Influence. After seven and a half years, thousands of conversations, and an evolution in both my work and myself, I knew it was time to let go of a title that no longer aligned and step fully into the next chapter. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of this decision, the identity shifts that brought me here, and why true influence isn’t about followers or performance—it’s about legacy, leadership, and faith. I also walk you through my Identity Elevation Framework—the three buyer identities (former self, working self, and highest self)—and why aligning your message to your highest self buyer is the key to building a business that feels light, sustainable, and deeply aligned. You’ll hear how I’m raising my own standards, what you can expect from Woman of Influence moving forward (including powerhouse guest conversations), and why this rebrand is so much more than a name change—it’s an invitation for you to rise with me.

You don't just grow, you literally expand.” - Julie Solomon  “   We live in a time where we consume without thinking, where we confuse information with wisdom, where we think that the more we know, the more we care. But influence is not about consuming more. It is about embodying truth and faith because that is what cultivates true influence and impact. Influence without truth is just performance.

If your business feels heavy—even though everything “looks” successful—you’re not broken, you’re just out of sync with your own evolution. In this solo episode, I dive into what I call unspoken burnout—the quiet misalignment that happens when your brand and messaging are still built around a past version of you. I unpack the three identity stages—former self, working self, and highest self—and explain how “identity lag” can leave your content dull, your launches uninspired, and your energy drained. I’ll show you how to recalibrate your business so it reflects who you are now, not who you used to be, and why serving from your highest identity attracts and activates the clients you’re truly meant for. If you’re ready to stop over-explaining, start embodying, and let your presence do the leading, this episode is your invitation to realign and rise. Liked this episode?

In this solo episode, I’m bringing you behind the scenes for a private debrief of my live training, The Messaging Reset—because I know not everyone could join us live, and the energy was too good not to share! I walk you through why your business doesn’t rise or stall because of reels, funnels, or ads—it all comes down to your messaging and who you’re actually speaking to. I break down the three buyer identities—former self, working self, and highest self—and show you how misaligned messaging keeps you attracting freebie seekers instead of ready-to-buy clients. I share real client examples, my own hard-earned lessons, and why recalibration isn’t about more strategy but about proximity and alignment. If you’re ready for content that converts and messaging that mirrors your ideal client’s highest self, this distilled training is your roadmap to lighter launches, consistent sales, and a business that finally feels as good as it looks.

Like we tie so much into the physical object. That's why we end up keeping so much, 'cause we're like, “oh, I feel like I'm throwing out my kids' childhood if I don't keep every piece of art that they've ever made.” And then when you give it to 'em, my girls are 25 and 23, they don't want it. You know, you can document, you can, journal. That's the stuff that really matters.

I’m so excited to share this intimate Q&A episode with you! These are the kinds of questions I get asked most often inside my coaching containers, from close friends, and honestly—the ones I ask myself too. In this conversation, I open up about how to know when it’s time to evolve your message, the biggest leadership lessons I’ve learned this year, and what it really looks like to align your business with your highest self. I also dive into staying connected with your partner while building a business, why I don’t believe in balance (but do believe in rhythms), how my relationship with my body has shifted over the years, and the role faith plays in everything I do. Plus, I share the ways I’ve learned to protect my energy while staying soft, open, and deeply loving.

That's never made sense to me. I don't know how mom guilt is gonna somehow make me a better mother. I haven't figured that out yet, so I just don't relate to that. But I do relate to the necessary rhythm and just letting yourself off the hook when it comes to balance, because I don't think that it exists.” - Julie Solomon  RESOURCES: [JOIN MY VISIBILITY TRAINING] With just 1 hour a week, my proven content framework will help you refine your messaging and turn your offers into consistent, scalable sales.

In this episode, I’m getting real about a truth that’s been rising to the surface for me as I step into my 41st year: your tolerance will always be met by the standard you set. Over the past year and a half, I’ve been taking a hard look at the relationships, partnerships, and dynamics in my life—both personally and professionally—and realizing where I’ve been holding on out of comfort, history, or compassion, instead of true alignment. I share how I’ve been raising my standards, honoring my non-negotiables, and curating an energy that reflects the woman I am today. From spiritual maturity and emotional stability to lifestyle compatibility and respect for timing, I’m learning that when you honor your standards, you don’t lose people—you gain the right ones.

It just started to kind of get louder and the voice was telling me that I was going to start outgrowing a lot of things that no longer served me. A lot of things that had gotten me here, but they weren't going to get me where I was going.” - Julie Solomon  “ I am a work in progress friends. I am not perfect. I am learning and growing and expanding as I go, but I believe that the more accountability that we have to take stock of what no longer serves us and really have people that see that in us and honor those non-negotiables, the more that we can do it for others.” - Julie Solomon  RESOURCES: [JOIN MY VISIBILITY TRAINING] With just 1 hour a week, my proven content framework will help you refine your messaging and turn your offers into consistent, scalable sales.
