S3Ep139: When the System Leaves Us Out, We Build Our Own with Lisa Myers, Founder & CEO of Ceres Chill

There’s a moment every woman hits, that quiet breaking point between what the world expects of us and what we know we deserve. For Lisa Myers, that moment came somewhere between court filings, breast pumps, and 3 A.M. feedings. The world had innovated for everyone else except working moms.

Lisa didn’t have an engineering degree, a trust fund, or an army of advisors. What she had was an idea and the audacity to believe she could build it herself. That spark became Ceres Chill, a company changing how women move through motherhood, work, and life.

But this isn’t just Lisa’s story. It’s every woman’s story. The one where we’re told to stay quiet, be humble, play nice, and wait our turn. And like Lisa, it’s about what happens when we stop waiting and start building.

Key Takeaways:

  • - Success is creating something that helps women live and lead on their own terms.

  • - You don’t need permission to start.

  • - Talking about what you’ve built isn’t showing off — it’s showing what’s possible.

  • - Community is the real engine of success.

  • - Disruption starts with one woman saying, “This isn’t good enough.”

    About Our Guest:

    Lisa Myers is the Founder of Ceres Chill, a company dedicated to ensuring the success of breastfeeding parents and the health of the world’s most vulnerable infants. In just the last few years, Lisa became a mother of two, was promoted to equity partner at an international law firm and created a company - all while enduring universal breastfeeding challenges. She struggled and failed to meet her breastfeeding goals. Through her struggles, she was inspired to invent a patented breast milk chilling thermos to help women all over the world keep their breastmilk safe and achieve their breastfeeding goals. She will never stop advocating for working women and breastfeeding families.

    S3Ep138: The Power of the Hype Woman with Erin Gallagher, Founder & CEO of HYPE WOMEN

    Erin Gallagher spent fifteen years doing everything right. Working hard, staying grateful, keeping her head down. But “doing everything right” almost cost her everything. When she became a mother, the illusion of safety in corporate America shattered. She realized she had been abandoning herself in service to everyone else. Her job, her bosses, her expectations.

    So she walked away.

    What started as a bold leap turned into a revolution. Erin launched companies built to empower women, led equity work for major brands, and created Hype Women, a global reminder of what happens when women celebrate each other without competition, apology, or restraint.

    Key Takeaways:

  • - The patriarchy thrives when women compete; it crumbles when we collaborate.

  • - The “mean girl” inside you is learned behavior that you get to unlearn.

  • - You don’t need permission to take up space.

  • - Real power comes from connection, not competition.

  • - Burn the bridge if it keeps you small.

She began her career at Servicemembers Legal Defense Network (SLDN), a non-profit legal services watchdog dedicated to ending the ban on LGBTQAI+ in the military (which they ultimately achieved). A two-time founder, Erin has spent her 20+ year career creating movements and leading global marketing, branding, communications, strategy and PR for agencies and global brands. She has counseled The White House, Fortune 100 C-suite and senior leaders at some of the world’s biggest and best brands and companies.

    S3Ep137: Risk, Reinvention, and Rewriting the Rules with Fran Maier, Co-Founder of Match.com

    Before anyone was swiping right, Fran Maier was already rewriting the rules. As the co-founder of Match.com, she didn’t just help people find love online. She helped women feel safe doing it. And when her company was sold for a fraction of what it’s worth today, she didn’t quit. She started again.

    Fran’s story isn’t just about startups. It’s about stamina. It’s about the quiet power of women who see what’s missing and decide to build it themselves. From creating trust in the earliest days of the internet to leading a company that helps thousands of moms become entrepreneurs, Fran embodies what it means to take risks, get back up, and redefine what success looks like on your own terms.

    Key Takeaways:

  • - Why focusing on women consumers was the secret to Match.com’s early success

  • - Asking for help (and sometimes demanding it) can change everything

  • - Every ending can be the start of your next act

  • - Never shrink your ambition to fit the room

  • - Take the risk and stop waiting for permission

    S3Ep136: Scaling Yourself, Not Just Your Career with Sehreen Noor Ali, Founder of Te Cura Labs

    There comes a moment for every ambitious woman when the grind no longer feels like growth. When the late nights, the accolades, and the endless “yeses” stop feeling like success and start feeling like survival.

    For Sehreen Noor Ali, that moment became a turning point. A venture-backed founder who had built her reputation in the fast-moving world of AI and startups, Sehreen had done everything “right.” Until life forced her to stop. And in that stillness, she discovered something most women never get the chance to find: space.

    Space to ask what do I really want?Space to imagine ambition that includes family, health, and joy.Space to say no without apology.

    Her story is a mirror for every woman who’s ever been told to keep pushing, keep performing, keep proving her worth. It’s proof that success doesn’t have to mean burnout and that the most radical thing a woman can do is redefine what achievement looks like on her own terms.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Saying “no” is often the most powerful yes to yourself.
    • Burnout can be the catalyst for a more aligned, intentional career.
    • You don’t have to be an AI expert, just AI literate for the expert you already are.
    • Mindset shifts can redefine what success looks like in every season of life.
    • You can build ambition and balance if you make space for both.

    About Our Guest:

    Sehreen Noor Ali spent years launching startups, most recently co-founding Sleuth, a Fast Company award winning platform that used crowdsourced data and AI to rethink how we approach children’s health. Today, she runs Te Cura Labs, helping modern leaders enter their next chapter with a thoughtful startup-style launch plan and a practical grasp of how AI can authentically extend their reach and reinforce their hard-earned expertise. She lives in New York City with her husband and two daughters.

    S3Ep135: The Truth About Menopause with Joanna Strober, Co-Founder & CEO of Midi Health

    For too long, women have been told to “just deal with it” when it comes to menopause. Symptoms dismissed, pain minimized, hormones ignored. Joanna Strober wasn’t willing to accept that, and she’s making sure the rest of us don’t have to either.

    As the co-founder and CEO of Midi Health, Joanna is rewriting the rules for women’s healthcare. Menopause isn’t a niche issue. It’s a universal experience for women. And yet the system wasn’t built for us. Joanna’s story is about building power in an overlooked market, creating access where there was none, and showing that women’s health is not only necessary, it’s non-negotiable.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The best time to optimize women’s health is now
    • How Joanna turned her personal health struggles into a national company
    • The myths about perimenopause and menopause that are holding women back
    • Women need choices, not gatekeepers, when it comes to their health
    • Menopause is inevitable, but suffering through it doesn’t have to be

    Learn More About Joanna:

    LinkedIn: Joanna Strober

    Instagram: @joannastrober

    About Our Guest:

    Joanna Strober is a visionary healthcare leader and CEO/co-founder of Midi Health, the fastest-growing national telehealth clinic transforming how women navigate menopause and midlife. Since launching in 2021, Joanna has propelled Midi to serve tens of thousands of patients with insurance-covered, personalized care in all 50 states—filling a massive gap in women’s healthcare. Before Midi, she founded and scaled Kurbo Health, a digital platform tackling childhood obesity, which was acquired by WW in 2018.

    Recognized as a CNBC 2025 Changemakers and TIME100 Most Influential People in Health 2025, Joanna is a fierce advocate for women’s health equity. Her leadership has earned national honors—including a White House award for her groundbreaking campaign protecting women’s healthcare access—and sparked viral conversations that challenge the status quo, like forcing Noom to retract an ageist ad. Backed by visionary investors such as Sheryl Sandberg, Connie Britton, and Amy Schumer, Joanna is at the forefront of redefining care for women at midlife, driving real, systemic change in a historically neglected space.

    S3Ep134: The Woman Who Reinvented How We Shop with Julie Bornstein, Founder & CEO of Daydream

    Julie Bornstein was told she didn’t fit the mold of a founder. That the venture world doesn’t fund women at scale. That maybe she’d missed her chance. Instead, she raised $50 million and built Daydream, a company poised to transform the way we shop forever.

    Julie’s path proves a truth too often ignored: women with experience are not a liability, they are a force. They know how to lead. They know how to scale. They know how to create the future.

    This isn’t just Julie’s story. It’s the story of every woman who has ever been underestimated. Of every woman told she was “too much” or “too late.” Of every woman who knows in her bones that conviction, resilience, and vision matter more than anyone else’s doubt.

    Julie is living proof: women founders don’t just belong at the table. They build the table.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Conviction is the most valuable currency when raising capital.
    • Starting from scratch creates the freedom to innovate without old limits.
    • The future belongs to the builders, not the bystanders.
    • You’re never “too old” or “too late” to build something transformative.
    • Resilience and risk-taking are essential muscles every founder must build.

Previously, Bornstein was the Founder and CEO of THE YES, an AI-powered shopping startup for women’s fashion that was acquired by Pinterest in 2022 for its groundbreaking technology and extensive brand partnerships roster. Prior, Bornstein held leadership roles at startups including Stitch Fix, where she served as the COO and Board Member, helping to scale the company to $1 billion in under six years. She also built and led e-commerce at multi-channel retailers including Sephora as the CMO and Chief Digital Officer, as well as at Nordstrom and Urban Outfitters. Bornstein received a B.A. in Government from Harvard College and an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School. In addition, Bornstein currently holds board positions at Sweetgreen, WeightWatched and Redfin.

    S3Ep133: Matcha Made Her Do It: The Rise of Matchaful with Hannah Habes, Founder & Chief Matcha Officer of Matchaful

    Hannah Habes didn’t set out to spark a matcha movement. She set out to heal herself. What started as a personal health journey became the foundation for Matchaful, a brand that’s grown from Hannah biking around New York with a backpack full of matcha to seven thriving cafes and a wholesale business across the U.S.

    Too often, women are told to play it safe. Don’t quit the job. Don’t take the risk. Don’t go it alone. Hannah did the opposite. Along the way, she ignored the “rules,” trusted her instincts, and built her business with grit, creativity, and persistence.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The real story behind bootstrapping and scaling Matchaful in New York City

    • Why sustainable growth matters more than rapid expansion

    • The importance of owning your customer experience

    • Why staying connected to your product’s source builds authenticity and trust

    • Believing in your product sometimes matters more than convincing skeptics

    About Our Guest:

    Hannah Habes is the founder of Matchaful, a female-led botanical nutrition brand offering direct-trade, single-origin matcha, and plant-based snacks. After experiencing burnout in the food industry, she built Matchaful around transparency, ritual, and intentional sourcing, knocking on café doors with samples and whisking drinks herself, while holding off on launch until she found the perfect farm partner. From a solar-shaded tea farm in Shizuoka to NYC cafés known for refined sugar-free lattes and functional snacks, Hannah is reshaping wellness culture with sustainably sourced ingredients and calming, restorative experiences rooted in Japanese tradition.

    S3Ep132: Reclaiming Feminine Wealth with Shamina Taylor, Wealth Consciousness Mentor

    So many women spend years building a life that looks good on paper—degrees earned, careers established, families raised—while quietly carrying the weight of survival. We push harder, achieve more, and numb the rest. Until one moment demands we face the truth: this isn’t happiness.

    For Shamina Taylor, that moment came on a yoga mat in 2013 when she found herself unraveling in the stillness she had always avoided. That breakdown became a breakthrough. She turned her pain into purpose, her hustle into harmony, and her scarcity into abundance. Her story isn’t just about one woman’s wealth. It’s about the power of women everywhere to step into their own.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Operating solely in masculine “do mode” keeps women in survival cycles.
    • Wealth consciousness isn’t about saving every penny; it’s about identity shifts.
    • Fear disguises itself as safety; intuition requires nervous system regulation.
    • Investing in yourself accelerates growth and collapses timelines.
    • When women rise in abundance, they change generations.

    S3Ep131: Refusing the System with Julianna Glasse, Founder and CEO of This Is What Happens When Women Read

    What happens when women dare to question the systems designed to keep them small? Julianna Glasse knows firsthand. Once a Christian pop singer at the center of evangelical culture, she walked away from it all after realizing the cost of her silence and submission. When a man in her church sneered, “This is what happens when women read,” Julianna turned that insult into a global movement to reclaim the inherent worth of women and dismantle the internalized fear and shame that keeps them trapped.

    But her story isn’t just about leaving religion. It’s about what every woman faces when she decides her worth isn’t defined by anyone else. It’s about courage, liberation, and the radical act of self-actualization.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Women who refuse silence change everything
    • Autonomy is non-negotiable
    • Systems built on control crumble when women rise
    • Oppression wears many faces
    • When one woman rises, she gives others the courage to do the same

    Learn More About Julianna:

    LinkedIn: Julianna Glasse

    About Our Guest:

    Julianna Glasse is a dynamic thought leader, and the Founder and CEO of This Is What Happens When Women Read, a global initiative advancing women’s liberation through education and safe community. Formerly a celebrated Christian pop singer and author, she rose to prominence within evangelical circles and was even invited to perform at the 2017 National Prayer Breakfast hosted by Donald Trump. In the years that followed, she experienced a profound personal and ideological shift, ultimately leaving religion in 2019 and becoming a dedicated advocate for women’s rights and the LGBTQ+ community. An alumna of Oxford University, Julianna partners with Saïd Business School to fund scholarships for emerging feminist leaders. She also collaborates with global fashion houses, including Alexander McQueen and Gucci. Her forthcoming memoir, This Is What Happens When Women Read, explores her personal journey from indoctrination to liberation through literature and is slated for global release in 2026.

    Women have always had to fight for their place, whether in the courtroom, the boardroom, or their own bodies. Few know this better than Lisa Beattie Frelinghuysen.

    S3Ep129: Reinventing Women’s Health with Alessandra Henderson, Co-Founder & Former CEO of Elektra Health

    Alessandra Henderson’s path to women’s health was anything but traditional. She went from building startups in art and tech to co-founding Elektra Health, a company closing the menopause care gap. Inspired by her own IVF experience, Alessandra helped raise millions, partner with leading health plans, and bring menopause into the mainstream conversation.

    But her story isn’t just about scaling a company. It’s about knowing when to step back. After years in the trenches while navigating her own health struggles, Alessandra made the bold decision to transition from CEO to board member, proving that success isn’t always about holding the top title.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Why women’s health isn’t just a mission — it’s a massive business opportunity

    S3Ep128: The Courage to Leap: Redefining Women’s Leadership with Kara Brothers, President of Starface

    Kara Brothers knows what it’s like to follow the “right” path and to realize it’s not the right path for you at all. She had the title, the salary, and the security. What she didn’t have was excitement for what came next. So Kara did something women are so often told not to do. She walked away from stability into uncertainty.

    For women, that leap isn’t just about business. It’s about rewriting the rules. Kara’s story is proof that you can build massive growth and create a workplace that values people, families, and joy. Because when women lead differently, companies don’t just make more money. They make more sense.


    Key Takeaways:

    • Why betting on yourself is worth the uncertainty
    • How to create a culture that supports high performance and well-being
    • The underestimated power of asking for help
    • Building a career you own instead of one that owns you
    • The business case for joy

    S3Ep127: Rebranding Nuclear Energy with Isabelle Boemeke, Founder of Isodope

    Isabelle Boemeke walked away from modeling and into the belly of one of the most misunderstood industries on the planet: nuclear energy. Not because it was trendy, but because it mattered. Now, she’s rewriting the narrative around clean energy, using her platform to cut through fear, misinformation, and bad branding.

    Because the truth is, women are tired of being talked down to, especially when it comes to science, technology, and the future of our planet. We don’t need dumbing down. We need clarity, courage, and creators like Isabelle who aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The cultural baggage nuclear energy carries, and how Isabelle is unraveling it with education and edge
    • Why nuclear is actually the safest and cleanest form of energy
    • How Isabelle turned curiosity into a movement — and a character
    • Why storytelling, branding, and bold visuals in science matter more than ever 
    • The worst advice Isabelle ever got and why being “cringe” is the key to building anything worthwhile

    About Our Guest

    Isabelle Boemeke is the Founder and Executive Director of Save Clean Energy and the creator of the online persona Isodope. Through Isodope, Isabelle has taken a uniquely subversive approach to harness the power and scale of social media to inform the next generation of leaders and builders about the massive potential of nuclear electricity to help solve global climate crises. Her education and advocacy efforts have expanded beyond the digital sphere into the real world, where she led a successful grassroots campaign to delay the closure of the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in California. In 2021, she delivered a TED Talk that has since been viewed nearly 2 million times, explaining why nuclear electricity is our best chance to replace fossil fuels. In recognition of her influence on the global energy conversation, the following year she was named a TIME Magazine Next Generation Leader. Arriving in late summer 2025, RAD FUTURE is Isabelle’s provocative debut: a scientific and unconventional manifesto positioning nuclear electricity as a key solution to the climate emergency.

    • Why health should be proactive, not reactive, and how that changes everything

    S3Ep124: No More Invisible Women: Networking, Advocacy, and Not Working for Free with Rachel Sklar, Co-Founder of TheLi.st

    Rachel Sklar didn’t set out to become the godmother of modern women’s networking — she was just pissed off. Frustrated by the constant erasure of women in media and tech, she did what a lot of smart women do: she wrote an email. But unlike most emails, this one sparked a movement. 

    Women have always known how to build in the margins — around systems, despite gatekeepers, and without the credit. Rachel just decided to make it impossible to ignore. Because when women back each other, we don’t just change the conversation. We change the entire game.

    Key Takeaways:

    • How frustration became fuel for Rachel’s most successful ventures

    • The power of introductions, visibility, and building value into your network

    • Why representation isn’t a favor — it’s strategy

    • The art of saying “no” to unpaid labor and “yes” to building power

    • How Rachel’s new podcast Hi, Smart Friend! is spotlighting voices you need to hear

She is active in web3 and has worked with NFT collections including Meta Angels & MAVION World.

She is an accomplished lyricist and has been hired and/or booked to write and/or perform original lyrics and songs for more years than anyone needs to count, but suffice to say she still hears about her use of "cavort" in 1992.

    S3Ep123: The Truth About Boards, Bias, and Protecting Yourself in Business with Maria Goy, Co-Founder of Spot Insurance

    What happens when you build something with your whole heart and still get written out of the story? Maria Goy had the resume. Fortune 500 exec. Tech and ops specialist. She co-founded a company that raised over $40 million, scaled it over years, stepped into the CEO seat, and still managed to stay rooted in purpose. But somewhere along the way, what she built started slipping out of her hands. Decisions got made in rooms she wasn’t fully in. Advice turned into directives. Passion was called emotion. And in the moments that mattered most, no one stood up. Not even the people who should have. Contracts matter. Representation matters. And your truth matters most of all.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The importance of having your own lawyer, even if you trust your co-founder

    • How gender bias shows up in “feedback” like being called emotional

    • Why the wrong board can feel more like a trap than a team

    • How to protect your truth on paper and in the room

    • Why walking away with nothing can still be the most powerful move

    S3Ep122: Wellness Is Life: Building a Business That Heals with Tai Beauchamp, Founder of Morning Mindset with Tai

    What if burnout wasn’t a breakdown — but a wake-up call to build something entirely new? The more you work, the better you are. That’s what hustle culture tells us. For Tai Beauchamp, the hustle started early. At 25, she was a beauty editor at the top of her game, the first Black Beauty and Fitness Director at Seventeen Magazine, and checking every box of success. But behind the scenes? She was burned out, overwhelmed, and running on empty. Something had to change, and in the process, a daily hike turned into a global movement.


    Key Takeaways:

    • The origin of Morning Mindset with Tai and its global growth
    • Learning to live from the inside out — not the to-do list
    • Building a scalable model for impact without burning out
    • Creating community experiences that actually transform
    • Why saying no (without guilt) is a business strategy

    S3Ep120: How You Can Raise A Confident Daughter with Illana Raia, Founder & CEO of Être

    Did you know a girl’s confidence can drop by 20% between the ages of 13 and 18? After talking to Illana Raia, founder and CEO of Être, I can’t stop thinking about how we can change that. What she’s building with Être isn’t just about mentorship; it’s about rewriting the script before girls start doubting themselves. She’s putting them in boardrooms, letting them ask bold, unfiltered questions about pay, power, and leadership—and companies are listening. It reminded me that if we want to close the confidence and compensation gaps later, we need to start by showing girls they belong in the room now. That’s how we build the next generation of fearless women.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Learn why confidence starts in middle school, not the workplace.

    • Reasons it's never too early to start being who you want to be.

    • Why seeing a woman lead makes leadership feel possible.

    • Discover how the confidence gap becomes the compensation gap if we ignore it.

    • How girls ask better questions when we let them in the room.

Believing that mentors matter as early as middle school, Illana brings girls directly into companies they choose to meet female leaders face to face. Être's national research on The Current State of Girls' Confidence (2022, 2024) has been featured by Forbes, CBS News, Yahoo Finance, NASDAQ, and more.
