In this episode, I speak with the author of Perfectly Queer, Jillian Abby.
From CPA, to licensed massage therapist, to homeschooling mom, to craft beer bar owner, to author, corporate storyteller and LGBTQ+ advocate– Jillian Abby is no stranger to making major life changes in pursuit of the most fulfilling life. Her path took her from Buffalo, to Bolivia, to Boston, and beyond only for her to learn one key lesson: finding alignment and fulfillment is an inside job. Her debut memoir, Perfectly Queer (Hay House 2023), was released worldwide and hit #1 on Amazon’s new releases for LGBTQ Memoirs and Biographies. It was included on Good Morning America’s list of 15 delightful books perfect for spring reading, Wondermind’s 13 Books by LGBTQ+ Authors that Feel Like Therapy, and Penguin Random House’s 2023 list of Pride In Your Words: Memoirs that Give Voice to the Queer Experience.

In this episode, we talk with LILLES Sophia Spallino. Sophia is your business wing-woman, social media strategist, and personal brand coach (who just happens to be an inter-spiritual lesbian harpist)! She helps purpose-driven female service providers and soul-led coaches around the world build wealth and multiply their revenue with social media strategy.
In her early thirties, she bravely left her entire traditional picket fence life when she left a guy she was going to marry and worked for – all to fully embrace her identity as a lesbian, the truth she tried to “pray away” for years… Talk about a plot twist, right?
With over 400k+ followers across all platforms, she isn’t just a coach who tells you what to do, she can show you how because she has done it! Sophia spent 8 years behind-the-scenes as a social media strategist for big-shot public figures and brands. Depending on prayer and grit, Sophia launched Legacy the Agency in 2022, a done-for-you fame machine. And in 2023, she realized she could help women do it themselves and launched the Profitable Personal Brand™ Live Coaching Program.
Sophia knows her purpose is helping powerful women build their own kick-ass, multi-six-figure Profitable Personal Brands™ in...wait for it…six months or less.
No BS – her clients have increased revenue an extra $2-10 grand a month within the first couple of months of working with her!
Her energy is powerful. Sophia’s not just a social media strategist or business coach, she is a woman-builder ready to help you build “break the glass ceiling and generational curses” wealth!
If…
👉You know you were meant for more and you secretly want to be “social media famous,” you need to talk with Sophia!
👉 Or perhaps you already have a thriving business, but you’re ready to scale your existing service provider business using social media and business systems?
DM Sophia “Advice” on Instagram, @SophiaSpallino, and she will share the free training that’s right for you!

In this episode, I interview Jill Geysen whose bio says it all.
Jillian Geysen's Bio:
Jillian Geysen's journey from a small town in Connecticut, where she grew up in a lower-class family supported by her grandparents, is a testament to her resilience and determination. As the eldest of three sisters, she learned the value of hard work and perseverance from a young age.
In the late summer of 2014, just over a year after graduating from Hofstra University in New York, where she studied and played Division 1 field hockey, Jillian faced a life-changing moment when she received a cancer diagnosis at the age of 22. While concurrently pursuing prerequisite courses for PA school in New Haven, CT, she worked at a restaurant and lived temporarily on a friend's basement couch to maintain some degree of independence from her parents.
Enduring four months of chemotherapy (twice a week) that resulted in hair loss and a month-long radiation treatment concluding in February, Jillian faced significant medical expenses. Nevertheless, her determination never wavered.
In March of 2015, Jillian embarked on a new chapter by relocating to Boston to work at Massachusetts General Hospital, aiming to fulfill pre-requisites for entry into a PA program. Over the course of five years in the healthcare industry, she gained insights from both clinical and administrative roles, ultimately realizing that it wasn't her true calling, scarred by her frequent personal visits to a multitude of healthcare centers.
In early 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic, Jillian relocated to Tampa, driven by her commitment to her girlfriend, whom she met at Pensacola Pride in 2019. In June 2020, she took a position in exterior home remodeling sales, meticulously saving every penny and making astute financial investments.
By October 2023, Jillian had made the bold decision to quit her job, now comfortably sustaining herself through her well-managed investments. Her journey is a story of perseverance, adaptability, and a commitment to shaping her own path in life, living authentically as a proud lesbian. If you'd like to learn more about Jillian, feel free to reach out, as she's always open to sharing her experiences and insights.
