Chef Shuai Wang was the runner-up on the 22nd season of Bravo’s Top Chef and is the force behind two standout restaurants in Charleston, South Carolina—Jackrabbit Filly and King BBQ—where he brings together the flavors of his childhood in Beijing and the spirit of the South in some pretty unforgettable ways. He grew up just a short walk from Tiananmen Square, in a tiny home with no electricity or running water, where his grandmother often cooked over charcoal. Later, in Queens, New York, his mom taught herself to cook—her first dishes were a little salty, but they were always made with love. And somewhere along the way, Shuai learned that cooking wasn’t just about food—it was about taking care of people. After years working in New York kitchens, he made his way to Charleston and started building something that feels entirely his own. Today, we’re talking about how all those experiences come together on the plate, the family stories behind his cooking, and what it’s been like to share that journey on national TV.

What dream are you putting off because you think you have to go “all in” to begin?
In this episode, I unpack how all-or-nothing thinking keeps so many people stuck—and why it’s one of the biggest blockers to growth, fulfillment, and actually living the life you want.
I share a powerful story about my client Kate, who dreamed of opening a candy shop but kept waiting for the “perfect time.” (Spoiler: it never came.) Instead, she took one small but meaningful step—and everything started to shift.
We’ll talk about why action within your current life is the path forward, how to let go of outdated assumptions, and what happens when you stop trying to force a leap and start taking steps that feel true.
If you’ve been holding back on a dream, this one’s for you.

What if your limiting beliefs are like wisdom teeth? In this episode, I explore how limiting beliefs, much like wisdom teeth, may have served you once but now hold you back. I’ll explain why it’s crucial to examine these beliefs, trace their origins, and ask: do they still serve me? You’ll learn how many of these beliefs are formed in childhood and how they block your growth and happiness. I’ll share why challenging them can be uncomfortable but essential for your progress. Ready to take action? Tune in now and start shifting your mindset for more freedom and confidence.

What if you acted like doubt didn’t get a say? In this episode, I dive into one of the biggest misunderstandings about confidence: that it’s something you either have or you don’t. (Spoiler: it’s not true.) I share why self-doubt is a completely normal part of being human—and why the key to confidence isn’t “getting rid of it,” but learning how to lead yourself through it. You’ll learn about the ‘as if’ practice—a simple but powerful shift that helps you take action from a place of possibility, even when your inner critic is loud. We’ll talk about emotional mastery, why your feelings aren’t facts, and how to stop letting doubt dictate your next step. Because the truth is: confidence isn’t a trait. It’s a skill. One you can practice—starting today.

In this rich and inspiring conversation, I talk with Jennifer Quent, former professional ballet dancer with the American Ballet Theater, about what it really takes to pursue excellence, leave behind something you love, and reinvent your path with courage. Jennifer shares her journey from childhood ballet dreams to performing on world-class stages—and what happened when the dream began to feel too small for her evolving self. We explore how identity can expand, how the relentless pursuit of growth requires discomfort, and how reinvention is not about starting over, but uncovering more of who you really are.

What if burnout isn’t just about doing too much—but about feeling disconnected from who you really are? In this episode, I reflect on a pivotal moment in my life—when I hit a wall of burnout that forced me to finally listen to the deeper truth I’d been ignoring. I share what the experience taught me about aliveness, joy, and the quiet cost of abandoning what lights you up. We’ll talk about the signs of burnout no one talks about, why self-care is about way more than sleep or breaks, and how reconnecting to your Zone of Greatness can change everything. If you’ve been feeling numb, drained, or just going through the motions—this one’s for you.

How do you navigate the messy, beautiful, and often uncomfortable process of changing careers—especially when the path forward feels anything but clear?

Together, we explore the emotional and intellectual challenges that come with reinventing yourself professionally. From battling self-doubt to balancing education with career responsibilities, Laura opens up about what it takes to embrace uncertainty and step into a new chapter with intention. We dive deep into the power of listening to your inner voice, testing out new paths, and reconnecting with your body to build the self-awareness needed for meaningful change. Laura and I share personal stories, insights, and practical advice about making decisions that align with your values—reminding you that there’s no one-size-fits-all path to success.

In this episode, I sit down with executive coach and author Melody Wilding to explore what it really means to trust yourself and create success on your own terms. Together, we dive into the complexities of being a high achiever – from breaking free of the "honor roll hangover" to the delicate balance between self-advocacy and humility at work. Melody shares powerful insights about detoxing from goals that no longer serve us and transforming our relationship with external validation. We explore how true reinvention isn't about becoming someone new, but having the courage to become more of who you already are. If you're a high achiever who's ever struggled with people-pleasing, setting boundaries, or knowing how to advocate for yourself at work without feeling uncomfortable, this episode offers practical strategies and permission to redefine what success means to you.

In this episode, I talk about the human brain’s built-in negativity bias—and how learning to shift into possibility thinking can completely change how you move through challenges. I share how this mindset helped me transform my business during the pandemic, and why asking “What is possible?” is one of the most powerful questions you can practice. If you’re feeling stuck or discouraged by uncertainty, this conversation will help you shift your lens, take back your agency, and discover new paths forward.

How would your relationships—both personal and professional—change if you focused less on getting the ‘yes’ and more on creating real connection? In this episode, I talk with Doug Weaver, who shares powerful lessons from his 25 years of training sales professionals—insights that go beyond sales and speak to the heart of human connection. Drawing on decades of experience, Doug reveals how empathy, curiosity, and authentic engagement can transform the way we relate to others in any area of life or work. Together, we explore how reframing rejection, leading with purpose, and showing up as our full, authentic selves can deepen our interactions and create real impact. Doug also talks about the power of slowing down, focusing on what others truly need, and building a legacy rooted in trust and positive influence. Whether you’re in sales or simply interested in making more meaningful connections, Doug’s approach offers a refreshing look at how values-driven engagement can enrich both our professional and personal lives. Join us for a conversation that challenges the traditional “performance” mindset and instead emphasizes curiosity, empathy, and the courage to be real.

What if your purpose isn’t something you find “out there,” but something you uncover within? In this episode, I explore the often-misunderstood idea of life purpose—and why it’s not about chasing a single, grand mission. Together, we’ll reframe what purpose really means, why it’s allowed to evolve, and how to uncover yours.

In this episode, I sit down with the endlessly curious NYT best-selling author AJ Jacobs, the self-proclaimed “human guinea pig,” to explore the transformative power of life experiments. Together, we dive into how gratitude, curiosity, and a willingness to step outside of our comfort zones can open doors to personal growth and deeper understanding. AJ shares his journey of living biblically for a year, unpacking the surprising lessons he learned about morality, gratitude, and the human experience. We also explore the delicate balance between ambition and appreciation, the brain’s natural resistance to change, and how breaking big challenges into small, manageable steps can create real momentum. Throughout our conversation, AJ’s stories highlight the beauty of experimenting with life—whether it’s trying something absurd or simply approaching everyday interactions with intention and curiosity.

How do you cultivate hope when everything feels uncertain? In this episode, I dive into the power of hope and why it’s not the same as blind optimism. Hope is a mental quality—one that can be nurtured and is essential for resilience and success, especially in challenging times. Through the story of Apollo 13, I show how hope can fuel problem-solving and drive action, even when things seem impossible. I’ll walk you through actionable strategies for building hope—especially for leaders—highlighting the importance of setting meaningful goals, being willing to try different things, and taking consistent action.

In this episode, I sit down with Talia for a real, heartfelt conversation about something we all struggle with—talking about what we do in a way that feels alive and exciting. We dig into the societal norms and self-awareness hurdles that often hold us back from showing up fully in conversations. Talia introduces the "Three P's" framework (pain, problem, passion) to help bring more depth and aliveness to how we share our stories, and we talk about the importance of taking up space, owning your gifts, and being authentic in every interaction. We also get into why asking deeper questions and leading with what truly moves you can transform how you connect with others. And yes, we touch on the power of pure enthusiasm—whether it’s about your work, your next big step, or, in Talia’s case, her upcoming wedding and a new podcast collab!

How do you move through failure without getting stuck in it? In this solo episode, I’m getting real about something we all face—but rarely talk about honestly: failure and disappointment. I share some personal stories and walk you through a 3-step framework to help you process setbacks in a way that actually supports your growth. We’ll talk about why it’s so important to feel your feelings (not bulldoze through them), how to reframe the meaning you assign to failure, and what it looks like to step into your agency—because failure doesn’t define you, your choices do. If you’ve been feeling stuck or discouraged, this episode will invigorate you to move forward -- that's a promise!

In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Denise Brown to talk about reinvention, personal satisfaction, and what it really means for women to define success on their own terms. Denise’s journey—from doctor to CEO to author—is a powerful example of how curiosity, flexibility, and the courage to ask for help can open unexpected doors. We dive into the core message of her new book, The Fairy God Doctor's Guide to a Good Life: A Prescription for the Working Woman, which challenges the idea that success is about checking society’s boxes. Instead, she encourages women to prioritize what actually matters to them. Along the way, Denise shares the lessons she’s learned from big career shifts, the power of making choices (without chasing perfection), and why no one has to do it all alone. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re on the right path or felt pressure to live up to someone else’s definition of success, this conversation will remind you that you get to decide what ‘having it all’ really looks like.

How do you embrace change instead of resisting it? In this episode, I share a personal story about a lost painting, a keynote speech, and an unexpected lesson in reinvention. Change is constant, but how we respond to it determines whether we grow or stay stuck. I dive into the mindset shifts that help us navigate uncertainty—focusing on possibilities instead of obstacles, taking action even when we don’t have all the answers, and recognizing discomfort as a natural part of growth. Because clarity doesn’t come from overthinking—it comes from doing. If you’re facing change (or resisting it), this episode will help you reframe uncertainty and step into your own power to reinvent.

What if failure wasn’t something to fear, but a doorway to learning and growth? In this episode, I sit down with Harvard professor and best-selling author Amy Edmondson to explore the surprising upside of failure, inspired by her new book, Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well. Amy shares her concept of “intelligent failure”—a thoughtful approach to trying new things where, even if the outcome isn’t perfect, the lessons are invaluable. Together, we dive into the power of self-compassion, why leaders’ responses to mistakes are so important, and how recognizing our shared imperfections can create stronger connections. If you’ve ever felt held back by imposter syndrome or the fear of “getting it wrong,” this conversation will help you see failure in a whole new way, embracing it with courage and curiosity.

In this episode, I chat with Sreenath Reddy to dive deep into the world of entrepreneurship, reinvention, and the personal journey of self-discovery. We explore his experiences growing up in India, the challenges he faced starting a business in the U.S., and how cultural influences shape entrepreneurial paths. Together, we discuss how true reinvention isn’t about becoming someone new but about uncovering and sharing your authentic self with the world. Sreenath opens up about the mental shifts required to succeed in business, the importance of aligning personal values with business decisions, and why visibility is crucial for career progression. Whether you’re navigating your own entrepreneurial path or in the process of self-reinvention, this conversation is filled with insights on adaptability, introspection, and leading with authenticity. Plus, we touch on how public speaking and social presence can be a joyful, rewarding experience when approached as a conversation.

In this episode, I explore the Acorn Theory—a powerful idea from James Hillman that suggests each of us has an inner essence, a soul’s purpose, waiting to be uncovered. I share my own journey of self-discovery, the courage it takes to align with your true calling, and why finding purpose isn’t about overthinking—it’s about actively engaging with life. We’ll talk about the messy, beautiful process of reinvention, the freedom that comes from embracing who you truly are, and why listening to the whispers of your soul’s calling can lead to deep fulfillment. If you’ve ever wondered how to get closer to your true path (or if you even have one!), this episode is for you.

In this episode, I talk with with Anne-Laure Le Cunff, neuroscientist and author of Tiny Experiments: How to Live Freely in a Goal-Obsessed World, to explore how shifting from a rigid, goal-oriented mindset to one of joyful experimentation can unlock personal growth and fulfillment. We talk about the fear of not having all the answers, the power of acknowledging when you feel lost, and why letting go of the pressure to have a perfect plan can actually lead to more meaningful progress. We also dive into the concept of the maximalist brain—how an overcomplicated approach to thinking can hold us back—and why small, structured experiments can be a game-changer. Anne-Laure breaks down the four core principles of living life as a series of experiments, offering practical advice on designing tiny tests that help you explore new directions, collect insights, and make more intentional decisions. At its heart, this conversation is about embracing uncertainty with curiosity rather than fear—seeing the unknown not as something to be avoided, but as a beautiful opportunity for discovery and growth.

In this episode, I chat with Pam Sherman about the magic that happens when you lean into all the different parts of who you are. Pam shares her story of moving from lawyer to actress, writer, and leadership coach—showing us how embracing multiple passions can lead to a fulfilling life. We talk about facing fears, navigating doubts, and why having a plan (and some serious discipline) is key to following your creative pursuits. We also discuss the importance of having a “through line” in life—a way to connect the dots between our values, experiences, and purpose. Pam opens up about how her background in law and acting has shaped her unique approach to communication, and why authenticity and believability are essential when connecting with others.

Are you ready for a reinvention? To uncover a more authentic, fulfilled version of yourself? In this special episode I'm recording on my 49th birthrday, I’m reflecting on a transformative year of personal and professional reinvention. From navigating self-doubt to chasing audacious goals, I’m sharing 10 powerful lessons I’ve learned this year — and how they can inspire your transformation. I explore how change unfolds gradually (until it doesn’t), the surprising risks of staying stagnant, and how taking action—even small steps—can build the confidence you need to dream big. And I dive into why you don’t need to try and get rid of self-doubt, why your future is more important than your post, and how your mindset shapes your reality.

In this solo episode of my Tea with Nataly series, I explore the transformative power of making decisions from a place of hope rather than fear. Using a real-life case study of Anna, a nonprofit leader facing a pivotal career decision, I uncover how hope can open us up to expansive thinking and new possibilities, while fear tends to narrow our focus and highlight obstacles. I share three powerful inner checks to help you assess your mindset when making decisions: Are you feeling expansive or constricted? Are you focused on possibilities or obstacles? And are you aligned with your purpose or caught up in ego? We’ll dive into how a hopeful mindset isn’t just wishful thinking—it’s about believing in possibilities, aligning with your authentic self, and taking intentional steps toward your goals. If you’ve ever struggled to make a choice that feels both meaningful and true to who you are, this episode will guide you toward decisions that honor your values and potential.
