Women Do Business Differently – Heal the Hustle, Tap into Alignment and Use Your Innate Power for Wealth and Success
Is it possible to be both wildly creative and deeply grounded, to build a business and a family, to lead with intuition and still get sh*t done? In this week’s episode of Can’t Be Contained, Mandy Ferdman, my best friend, my comedic muse, and founder of Bath Haus joins me for a conversation that is as raw and real as it is hilarious. We get straight into it: from what it actually takes to channel that magic creative energy (yes, even when you’re busy, tired, or have three weeks to write a maid-of-honor speech during a Kickstarter launch), to how we, as women, are dismantling outdated models of hustle and stepping into a new era of intuitive entrepreneurship.
We riff on finding and following the “path of least resistance” in life and business and what happens when you don’t. Mandy opens up about that moment she turned her back on people-pleasing and began to let energetic alignment, not external expectations, guide her choices. I get real about my own journey (and occasional chaos!) in business, relationships, and friendship, and how navigating discomfort and telling the unfiltered truth have become non-negotiables. We break down everything from the subtleties of emotional triggers to the way generational healing takes root when we choose to process instead of suppress. Plus, Mandy shares the inspiration behind her game-changing product, Bath Haus, and what it’s like to build a company rooted in maternal love and fierce wellness.
If you’re feeling stuck, out of alignment, or just ready to amplify your own intuition this one is for you. We’re talking real tools for energetic hygiene, boundary-setting, creating from a place of flow (not force), and, above all, honoring the wholeness of who you are. Tune in for laughter, truth bombs, and a huge permission slip to do business and life your own way.
