Aren’t you amazed at all the things the female body goes through in the 20-something decade alone?!

This week we are chatting with dietitian Emma Nelson. Emma is an RD who helps women find balance and wellness after being BURNED by diets.

In our conversation we’re diving into all the eras of our twenties when it comes to body image, diet culture, lifestyle and where they all intersect. Eras like:

• The College Era
• The Career Era
• The Bridal Era
• The Prenatal Era
• The Postnatal Era

We start our conversation discussing how social media has become an echo chamber of conflicting nutrition advice that can just be straight up confusing to sift through. So, we hope this conversation serves as a clarifying tool for you + your friends!

Side Note: This is the LAST episode of season two of the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast. We hope you’ll follow along on Instagram and sign up for emails so you know when we’ll be back in 2025!

Who else feels like the life you live in your twenties has thousands of eyeballs on it? Like for better or for worse, in social media + IRL, there are people watching every move you make? Sometimes even offering up their opinions -- often without being asked.

Social media, the grapevine, + just the peanut gallery of your own life – they all can make surviving your twenties HARD. And it can cloud your vision when it comes to where you find your worth.

If anyone gets this, it’s Lauren O’Connell. Her friends call her Lolly, which is what you’ll know her as from now on because by the end of our conversation, she’ll feel like your new best friend.

Lolly FULLY felt the friction that comes from surviving her twenties + finding her worth through her experience of playing on Season 38 of CBS’ hit reality TV show, Survivor.

Immediately (like, days) after her college graduation + at the end of her collegiate athletic career, she was stranded on an island with complete strangers to compete in a game that would change her life forever.

In this episode, you'll hear... 

• A reminder that we can’t mess up God’s plan for our life + that He is THE only place that our worth comes from.
• How to navigate the comparison game when it comes to life’s big milestones.
• How God can use your gifts to write a powerful story, even when you feel like you’re messing it all up.
• Body image issues + the effects social media can have on them. 
• What Lolly WON after losing the million dollars + being voted off the Survivor Island on day 37 of her season.

Try as we might, the rule applies to us too: Nothing Blooms Year-Round.

This week I'm popping in with another mini-episode pulled straight from my online journal. If you're new here, let me catch you up:

I love to write, I love to share, and I love when other people share.

There’s just so much we can benefit from hearing other peoples’ thoughts and experiences and stories!

But, do you know what NOT everybody loves? To read. Ha!

Some of y'all out there (like my husband, for example) are just not readers -- but you can get down with a podcast or an audio book! So, that's what led me to these mini-episodes where I read entries straight from my online journal.

This episode is from an entry I wrote at a time that I was coming out of a season of personal winter. I went into that season kicking and screaming... Anyone else relate?

As life would have it, though -- that's when I learned one of the most important things I've ever learned: Nothing In Nature Blooms Year-Round. Not even us.

Take a listen and let me know what you think!

About Me: 

Bailie White is a motivational speaker with 7+ years of entrepreneurial experience and a heart for serving, motivating, and encouraging college-aged women.

Just five years after graduating college, Bailie had started, scaled, and sold her first business: a full-service luxury travel agency that reached multi-millions of dollars in annual sales, a team of 15 women, a celebrity clientele, and was recognized by media outlets like Buzzfeed, Forbes, Travel Pulse, Travel Age West and more.

Today, entrepreneurship looks less like traveling the world and owning a travel company, and more like podcasting and speaking to college women -- empowering them to take OWNERSHIP of their own lives, and live out what Bailie has coined as their own “brand of beautiful.”

She does this by candidly sharing her unique journey through entrepreneurship, life, and the hard-earned lessons learned along the way -- especially the lessons she wishes she had learned before she hit the college graduation stage herself.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the darkness of our world? Social media, politics, the news, cultural divides… It’s all… just a lot sometimes, you know?

If you’ve ever felt that way, you are not alone. A 2021 study showed that 3 in every 5 girls reported feeling sad or hopeless about our world!

THIS is why I knew we needed Allyson Golden to come and share with us How to Arise and Shine amidst it all. Her latest book speaks directly to How To Be a Light That Ignites Hope in a Dark World.

You might know Allyson from her popular Instagram page, @wordsaregolden — but she is also a part-time pediatric nurse, seminary student, a wife, friend, author, speaker and more.

In our conversation, we are chatting about: 

• How to embrace the “both-and” callings on our lives.
• How The Lord can use our darkest moments + deepest sources of pain for good.
• What spiritual warfare looks like when we’re living into our calling.
• Necessary spiritual disciplines we as women are tempted to avoid.

All of this + more on this week’s episode, my friends. I cannot wait for you to hear these GOLDEN words from Allyson Golden.

About Allyson Golden: Allyson Golden is the creator of the online ministry Words Are Golden, where she champions women in their faith. She is currently enrolled in seminary to obtain her master of biblical and theological studies degree. Allyson and her husband, Michael, partner in ministry at their local church in San Diego. Allyson loves to host people in her home, travel to see new places, and go on walks with her dog, Charlie.

How are you supposed to know if it's 'Best Friends FOREVER' or if it's time to close the door on a friendship? 

Relationships are a powerful part of all of our Brands of Beautiful which is why we felt covering them on this season of the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast was so important.

Join us this week for part two of our two-part series on relationships with Hannah Grace Hall.

Today’s episode is a little outside of our norm here on the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast for a couple reasons:

1. Instead of a typical interview-type chat, you’re about to listen to a much more raw conversation that Bailie had with a friend of over 20 years, Hannah Grace Hall.
2. This episode is part of a two-part series about relationships. Today’s episode is about friendships, last week was about marriage.

This week, you'll hear Bailie and Hannah Grace chat openly about friendships, including:

• What society's fascination is with having a friend ‘group'
• How Hannah Grace believes there is only one ‘wrong’ way to do friendship.
• How to know when to fight for a friendship or allow a chapter to close.
• What Bailie’s “fruit of the spirit” litmus test is for friendships.
• How to find honest friends in life.

If you love this episode, please let us know, so that we can bring even more like them to your earbuds in season two of the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast!

About Hannah Grace: Hannah Grace was born in Nashville TN and raised in Texas. She graduated from high school and immediately went to beauty school in Franklin TN. She has been a hairstylist for 10 years and currently is running a single studio space called The Grace Collective. She is also exploring what God has called her to in this season of motherhood and career. 

During her cosmetology career she has been an employee, freelance hair & makeup artist, and owned a storefront salon in the suburbs of Nashville TN. Her salon won best in their town as well as ran huge community events impacting not just their clients but their entire town. Hannah Grace is passionate about bringing people together, loving her community well and pointing others to Jesus. Her passion for serving others and loving her community shines through her everyday life and not just in her career. 

She has been married for seven years and has two children whom she adores. Her favorite title she’s ever had is mom.

Follow Hannah Grace: https://www.instagram.com/thegracecollectiveco/

Why do people prepare for the wedding more than they do the marriage? We have to believe that’s part of why nearly 50% of all marriages end in divorce.

Marriage is beautiful. It’s a gift from God. And, it takes work. Why aren’t more people talking about that?

Marriage is also a magnificent part of many listeners' Brands of Beautiful – either currently in this season, or perhaps marriage is something they hope to one day have  – so let’s talk about it!

Today’s episode is a little outside of our norm here on the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast for a couple reasons:

1. Instead of a typical interview-type chat, you’re about to listen to a much more raw conversation that Bailie had with a friend of over 20 years, Hannah Grace Hall.
2. This episode is part of a two-part series about relationships. Today’s episode is about marriage, next week will be about friendship.

And while Hannah Grace would have loads of wisdom to share about being a hairstylist or a business woman, today she and Bailie are simply having girl talk about relationships:

• Relationships with self
• Relationships with God
• Relationships inside of a marriage
• Relationships between friends

They're talking about the hard stuff. The messy stuff. The vulnerable stuff.

We're thankful to Hannah Grace for generously sharing her story with us, knowing that testimonies breed testimonies, and that her story might help someone...

• inside of their own marriage,
• as they prepare for a marriage,
• as they plan for what marriage might one day be like for them.

Join us today as we honor Hannah Grace’s faithfulness to be truthful about hard things, in a way that paints a picture of honest hope. We hope you enjoy this very open, raw conversation about marriage.

Have you ever found yourself experiencing outwardly success, but not recognizing the person staring back at you in the mirror? Have you ever been climbing towards the top of a mountain that you’re not even sure was meant for you to begin with?

Phew! You already know that I'm with you on that, sister. And on this week’s episode, I’m chatting with someone else who knows a thing or two about being trapped in a successful reality she doesn’t belong in.

Olivia Adriance is a health food enthusiast with a passion for whipping up uncomplicated, nutritious, and delicious meals out of her home kitchen in Austin, TX. After graduating University of San Diego, she worked for 4 years in corporate consulting at PricewaterhouseCoopers before beginning her content creation and recipe sharing journey that you know her from today! 

Now I bet you’re wondering — wait, corporate consulting? Accounting? And now… a recipe content creator? Yep! And the story behind how she got from point A to point B is one worth exploring.

In our convo, we’re chatting all about things like:

• Healthy eating tips on a budget (I couldn’t NOT make a pivot towards a health podcast on this one) + Olivia’s sound advice on what she calls “not majoring in the minors” when it comes to healthy eating.
• The power of community, the importance of who you surround yourself with, and why that is a fundamental ingredient in whipping up your Brand of Beautiful.
• What an “overnight success” experience actually looks + feels like. Hint: there’s nothing ‘overnight’ about it.

Olivia’s journey to creating her Brand of Beautiful is one worth listening to, mostly because of the difficult (yet necessary) steps she took with intention along the way.

From a career she felt trapped inside of to the creative genius and Insta-chef she is in the kitchen today, Olivia is here to remind us that success is defined only through the eyes of the beholder + that you shouldn’t quit working for your version of a beautiful life until you’ve arrived. Oh, and to make sure to cook delicious, Whole Foods along the way!

Fears. The fear of failure. The fear of pain. The fear of embarrassment. The fear of being alone. The fear of being misunderstood. The fear of fill-in-the-blank-word with whatever it is holding you back today.

We've GOT to learn to get rid of the fears that hold us back from creating our Brands of Beautiful in life. We -- together -- you and I both do! The idea of Eliminating Fears is an everyday idea that we have to revisit over and over again -- as many times as we need to.

Tune into this week's mini-episode where I share about...

• HOW I learned to elminate my fears,
• WHEN in life I've had to put it into practice, and
• WHAT I got from it all on the other side.

I share this so that hopefully, someone else might decide to eliminate their own fears -- and then make the change, chase down the opportunity, pursue the dream, or take the risk.

I hope you enjoy this mini-epsidoe on the Your Brand of Beautiful podcast read straight from my online journal: https://www.bailiewhite.com/journal

So you’re nervous about the hundreds of different post-grad paths you can walk down, right? Questions like: Which path do I take? How do I go to the ‘next level’? What if I fail? What if I need to pivot? 

All of the above are common thoughts racing through the minds of college-aged girls. Thankfully, todays conversation is SURE to give your mind the peace it’s looking for!

This week, I'm chatting with Brianna Glenn. Brianna is a globally ranked American long jumper, having competed as a professional athlete following graduation from the University of Arizona. After spending nearly all of her twenties competing, she knew it was time to shake things up. Today, she's the owner + founder of Milk + Honey Travels, where she plans travel for other wanderlusty souls and gets to keep traveling the world as a part of her job description. 

Brianna loves helping people. At the root of it all, helping people is where her heart is at. Which is why I know something in our conversation today will help YOU. 

You'll hear us discuss:

• The mindset shift Brianna experienced in college that took her to an olympic level of competion. 
• Brianna's take on what failure truly is, and why she's such a believer in the 'life pivot.'
• Advice Brianna would give to her younger self, like throwing out your timeline or asking yourself the right questions in life, for example.

I just know there is something in here for YOU, sister. And I can’t wait for you to listen in.

About Brianna: Brianna is a globally ranked American long jumper. She’s traveled and competed around the world — like in the 2002 World Cup, 2006 World Athletics Final, and her personal best jump was at the US Olympic Training Center in 2011. Today, she's kept travel as part of her job description as the owner + founder of Milk + Honey Travels. She is a wife, a mom, a thought-leader, a friend, and more!

Disclaimer: She would NOT self-describe as a model despite having been featured in Sports Illustrated for a Budweiser campaign — you’ll hear us laugh about that in our convo!

Y'all -- guess what!

By the end of THIS YEAR, I’ll be a published author!

You may already know that I’m signed on with a speaking agency (Greek University) and through it, several other female speakers from the team are working together to co-author Greek University’s newest book titled From Letters to Leaders: The Ladies Edition. 

And I’ve been able to write two chapters of the book!

The process was a super cool experience because writing a book is something I can maaaaaybe see myself doing one day? Who knows! So it was definitely neat to be able to dip my toe in and get this experience.

Now I won’t give away too many details about the book’s content, but I did get approval to share a little excerpt from one of my chapters titled "Can I Have It All? How to Balance Academics, Work, and Sorority Life."

I chose this chapter because I knew I had a lot of experience to pull from, and insight to offer on the topic. And on this episode, I’m going to read part of the chapter to you!

If you're into it, be sure to follow me on Instagram or sign up for my email list for more details on when the book is available for purchase.

Are you working on any blank pages in life right now? Be it a project to begin, a dream to chase, or a town to settle into - we all stare at these hypothetical blank pages at some point in our lives. 

Honoring these blank pages is a common thread woven through each episode of the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast, which is why this first mini-epsiode is so fitting!

About once a month, you can expect a mini-episode to drop where I will read one of my online journal entries (which are found on my website, in case you're wondering!)

Our first mini-epsisode is titled: Another Blank Page. If you especially love these shorter episodes, let us know! It always helps to hear what you think.

See you next week for another conversation with an incredible guest!

Bailie's Online Journal: https://www.bailiewhite.com/journal

If you’ve ever wondered IF there is beauty in your brokenness, you are not alone. And if you’ve ever wondered HOW to FIND the beauty in your brokenness, you aren’t alone in that, either. 

When it comes to finding beauty in your brokenness, there is honestly no one better to talk to than Cassandra Speer.

Cassandra is a 2x Best Selling Author, Speaker, Bible Teacher, Mamapreneur and VP/Partner of Her True Worth, a Kingdom-focused ministry dedicated to helping women know and live from their true worth & identity in Christ. 

In our convo, we’re talking about some of my favorite topics:

• Understanding past hurts and traumas; including what they do to our brain, body, and nervous system.
• How to confidently choose and walk down the many paths of our own life.
• What our response to words like ‘manifestation’ and ‘visualization’ should be as Christian dreamers.

Cassandra’s story and message are truly important, and I know after hearing this conversation you’ll be reminded of how The Lord can use your brokenness inside of Your Brand of Beautiful in the most profound and incredible ways.

Have you ever questioned if you should stay in or leave a relationship? Or if you should take that next job or simply stay where you are? Navigating some of life’s biggest decisions can be tricky, but Laney Rene is here to make this process far less complicated for all us girls.

Laney Rene is a wife, mom,author and founder of The One He Loves, a ministry which exists so every woman can be refreshed, encouraged, and reminded of Jesus’ loving-kindness toward them, and today I’m sitting down with her to ask how we make the next, right decision for our lives.

• Taking bold steps of obedience before we see any fruit from these heart nudges
• Practical ways to surrender what we THINK our life should look like
• How to determine whether to stay or leave a relationship 

Laney’s story is truly a remarkable one, but mostly because of the ordinary decisions she made before the extraordinary opportunities arrived. And she’s here to remind us that even when things don’t go or feel like how we expect them to, God is still redeeming all parts of our story.

As my passion for helping twenty-something year old women grows, the more my eyes are open to the importance and NEED for conversations around mental health.

Mental health questions were the overwhelming majority of topic requests for this podcast season, which is why I knew I needed psychotherapist Talia Gutierrez to come on the show.

Talia helps women find healing in their lives by unpacking the baggage that’s holding them back. She does this through therapy services — of course — but also coaching and mental wellness events like her very own experiences called Fueling Her Further.

In our conversation I'm asking her the very questions I was brought by listeners: 

• How do we break down the walls of perfectionism?

• How do we handle our mental health in our twenties?

• What about when we don’t have TIME FOR IT?

• What does self care even look like if I do have some time for it?

• How do I prioritize myself when my plate is already so full?

Listen into this conversation with my friend Talia for the answers — and for some practical tips when it comes with dealing with overwhelm, how to recognize signs of perfectionism, how to ground our nervous systems, and so much more.

Not only was money management a season two topic request that I was thrilled to see, but I knew I had the perfect guest to join with me. 

Katie Bulmer is a motivational speaker + mentor to women in their twenties. She's spoken to over 70+ colleges nationwide + hosts the Truth For Your Twenties Podcast. Also, her husband is the former director of financial literacy at university of Tennessee at Chattanooga, is trained by the Dave Ramsey Organization, + coaches people on how to get right side up on their finances.

Of course, by osmosis, Katie is the perfect guest to talk about Money Management + Money Habits for your twenties with us!

We begin the conversation by getting Katie's rapid fire responses to these headlines:

According to a 2024 Motley Fool Study, Gen Z is more likely to experience financial anxiety than any other generation. Multiple sources say this is because of...

• Cost of living - 52% said they don’t make enough money to live the life they want
• Student loan debt - Gen Z has larger student loan balances than Millennials
• Rent costs - 80% of young adults are renters, average rent has increased 20% in the past 20 years
• Debt - Gen Z AND Millennials have seen the largest average increases in total debt over the past couple of years…

Then, Katie + I conversate around...

• Money habits to avoid in your twenties
• What the Bible says about money
• Where we went right + where we went wrong on our financial journey in our twenties

Disclaimer: This is a note taking episode! Be sure to take with you the tidbits from this convesation you feel might help you on your own financial journey through your twenties.

As our guest says in this episode, "alcohol is going to going to play way too big of a role in our adult life to not have a conversation about it."

So, let's have a conversation about it!

Joining me today is Melanie Farrell of Tastefully Buzzed. Melanie is a speaker for college women and she delivers the dreaded alcohol presentation everyone is obligated to sit through -- only with Melanie, it's not a conversation you'll dread at all!

Melanie speaks from a place of knowing that no one wants another lecture that feels like a wrist-slap; instead, they want real, relatable, and actually encouraging content.

In our conversation, you'll begin by hearing Melanie's personal testimony to finding a relationship with Christ. My challenge for you as you listen is this: consider where you see yourself in her story.

Are you the girl in NEED of an uplifting friend, and maybe you need to be open to a “playground” change (you’ll hear what Melanie means by that later in this episode)...

OR are you someone who needs to shine your light to another girl who — maybe to be completely honest you’ve written her off as a lost cause?

In the second half of our conversation, we'll chat around what it means to live Tastefully Buzzed, how alcohol plays a huge role in our life and how to handle that. We're also just chatting about how to bring more vibrancy into your life and relationships!

All of this and more in my conversation with Melanie Farrell. I hope you love it!

Have you ever had a bright idea and not known what to do with it?

The inspiration is sometimes the fun and easy part, but when it comes to taking the first steps to making it all happen — or even knowing if you’re fully qualified to TAKE your first steps — is where things get tricky.

The last time I felt this way was when I had the idea to dip my toe into public speaking. I had the idea and the story, but I didn’t know what to do next. Fortunately, I found Mic Drop Workshop which is the online course that launched me into where I am today.

Today’s guest is the creator of Mic Drop Workshop, Jess Ekstrom!

Jess is a serial social entrepreneur and bestselling author. She's has been featured in major media outlets such as the Today Show, Good Morning America, Vanity Fair, and more!

After starting and growing her first multi-million dollar company from her dorm room, her speaking and writing career took off. But Jess realized that her success wasn’t about how far she can reach—but how far she can help other women reach.

Today, she helps women uncover the value in their story so they can make a living and a difference at the same time.

Listen into our convo to hear:

• Why Jess believes your college years are some of the best to begin your entrepreneurial journey.
• Jess’ ‘Try It On’ method (used to find out if a big idea is worth chasing).
• An honest take on how beginnings almost never feel ‘easy’ — but how that doesn’t mean it isn’t working or worth pursuing.
• Jess’ ‘Purpose Test’ created to help you find what your purpose is.
• How to have discernment between what we want and what the world tells us we want.

About Jess: Jess is a serial social entrepreneur and bestselling author of Chasing the Bright Side and Create Your Bright Ideas. She has been featured in major media outlets such as the Today Show, Good Morning America, The View, Vanity Fair, People Magazine, Business Insider, Huffington Post and Forbes.

After starting and growing her multi-million dollar company, Headbands of Hope, her speaking and writing career took off. But Jess realized that her success wasn’t about how far she can reach—but how far she can help other women reach.

Today, through her writing, and her uber popular Mic Drop Workshop®, she helps women uncover the value in their story so they can make a living and a difference at the same time.

Embarrassing confession: I didn’t know who the Savannah Bananas were before moving to Savannah Georgia. (I know, right?!)

But if you really know me, you’ll understand why I am now a HUGE Savannah Bananas fan -- because it’s not just baseball for them. It never has been, since the very beginning!

If you know The Savannah Bananas, you know. But if you DON’T know them, well then get cozy because you’re about to hear their entire start-up story from today’s guest.

Today’s guest, Kelsey Orton and her husband Jared (President of the Bananas) were college sweethearts that took a crazy leap of faith as boyfriend + girlfriend, fiances, and then newlyweds when they decided to chase a dream together. In 2016, they helped in the startup of what was a brand new baseball team in Savannah Georgia.

You could say the entire thing was bananas!

Kelsey is also a business owner herself, as a luxury interior designer + the owner/founder of Tennyson Studio here in Savannah. Kelsey is a wife, mom, + a follower of Christ. Her story today is one you don’t want to miss! 

In this episode you'll hear:

• They story of Kelsey, Jared, + the entire Banana team’s humble beginnings.
• Kelsey's advice for dating + chasing dreams as a couple with Christ at the center of it all.
• How to hold being a mom + chasing dreams at the same time -- including if being a mom IS the dream (the most divine calling, IMO!)
• Why + how you need to trust God through all of life's ups + downs: career decisions as a college grad, dating, marriage, startup cultures, toxic work enviornments, becoming parents + more.

Follow Savannah Bananas: https://www.instagram.com/thesavbananas/

Follow Tennyson Studio: https://www.instagram.com/mytennysonstudio/

In this solo episode, I’m sharing 20 things I’d tell my 20-year-old self—from career tips and baby timelines to dating, friendships, and finding your balance.

Whether you're in your twenties, just came out of them, or find yourself starting fresh at any age, I hope this episode reminds you that you don’t have to have it all figured out. You can enjoy life where you are, dream big, learn along the way, and trust your next step—even when it’s uncertain.

Some of these are heartfelt, some are practical, some are funny, and some might make you cry (looking at you, girlfriend poem at #13). But most of all, I hope they help you feel seen in whatever season you’re in.

What does it really take to build a PR firm and a family — on your own terms?

In this episode, I’m chatting with Morgan Mitchell — Founder + CEO of Two PR in Nashville — about her journey from celebrity PR to launching her own agency, building a thriving business, and navigating life as a working mom.

From career pivots in her 20s… to taking big leaps without a “perfect plan”… to figuring out how business + motherhood can truly coexist — Morgan shares so many honest insights that will inspire any woman building a career and life she loves.

We talk about:
• What it actually takes to start and scale a business
• Career pivots + trusting your gut when it’s time to evolve
• Why your career plan will likely evolve — and that’s okay
• Building a career and a family — and planning to do it your own way

If you’re a working professional, entrepreneur, mama or hopefully-one-day mama — I think you’ll love this conversation.

Whether you're a college student walking to class aspiring to be an entrepreneur, a mama-preneur pushing a stroller while working from her phone, or a family wondering what it's like to operate fully in the entrepreneurial space and go into business with your spouse, this episode is for you.

Welcome to another episode of the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast — the place where we chat with women who have created their own unique version of a beautiful life, in hopes that their story might inspire others to do the same. This week, you’re in for a real raw, candid conversation with Lindsey Epperly!

If you’re a listener from back when I owned a travel company, you might already know who Lindsey Epperly is… but if you’re unfamiliar, she is the founder and Chairwoman of Jetset World Travel, a travel agency she grew from a one-woman operation into a team of 100.

Lindsey was a mentor of mine, and someone who I deeply admire. And not just because of her fancy titles like earning two consecutive spots on the Inc. 5000 List of fastest-growing companies or being named to the Forbes Next 1000 List, but because she’s a servant leader, a mamaprenuer, and a champion of anyone in the small business space.

In our very candid chat today we’re covering a lot of ground: from serendipity in life, sacrifice in business, and the false summits that as Lindsey put it, are sometimes what shows us what we’re truly meant for.

In this conversation we’re chatting about:

• The way health issues manifest in our body during times of stress or sacrifice
• How motherhood shapes growth and evolution of entrepreneurship as women in business
• And how to know if it’s time to make a transition in life, career, business, and more.

My favorite part of this conversation (and what might be the cause of an emotional hangover) is when Lindsey — for the first time — shared with me her side of the story, as my mentor, when I decided to sell my travel company.

Tune in and get ready to take notes from my friend, Lindsey Epperly!

There is this universal truth that — no matter who you are, what you believe, or where you came from — no one experiences life without grief.

Not even Mattie Jackson, daughter of country music icon, Alan Jackson, and now best-selling author, speaker, and podcaster.

In September of 2018, Mattie became a widow at age 28 when she tragically and very suddenly lost her husband, Ben. Since then, she has used her work and her platform to share her grief, her healing, and her unshakeable faith with women and men across the country.

Today, you’re going to hear our conversation about walking Through The Valley of Grief, which is the title of her new 365 day devotional of Spiritual practices for hope in suffering.

You’ll hear us discuss things like:

• Motherhood and parenting journeys (from Mattie’s family’s humble beginnings and her mom’s profound impact on her life, to Mattie’s motherhood journey and what parts of her parent’s parenting she plans to implement into her own family).
• The 4 spiritual practices to take you from broken and resentful to a restored relationship with and trust in God: Wail, Connect, Worship and then Hope (my personal favorite part here is the way Mattie describes How helplessness of realizing you’re not in control after tragedy eventually, evolves to freedom).
• How to find and choose joy — and the indescribable happiness we can look for and even expect to find on the other side of the valley of grief…

Mattie is salt of the earth and as humble as they come. I was touched while having this conversation with her, and I hope you have the same experience listening back to it!

About Mattie Jackson-Smith: Mattie Jackson is a best-selling author, speaker, and podcaster with a degree in creative writing from the University of Tennessee. Tragically, she lost her husband of less than a year, Ben Selecman, in September 2018 after he suffered a traumatic brain injury while on vacation in Florida. Despite her grief, Mattie is pushing forward and has dedicated herself to helping others through her writing and podcast, In Joy Life with Mattie Jackson. Mattie is also the co-founder of philanthropic organization "NaSHEville,” which supports groups serving orphans, widows, and trafficked women. Mattie lives with her husband and son in Nashville, TN.

[LEAVE A RATING, GET A COFFEE!-- For any listener who leaves a new rating/review of Your Brand of Beautiful + sends a screenshot of it via DM to @heybailiewhite on Instagram, you'll get a free coffee on me!]

Have you ever felt like you're always the 'better' friend? The one who gives (and gives) without receiving much in return? Or on the flip side, have you ever wondered how you could level up and BE a better friend than you already are?

Author + speaker, Grace Valentine, has been through the lows + highs of friendships, so she knows what it takes to make good friends and to be a good friend. And in our conversation today, we're talking all about How to Find + Be A 'Better Friend' While Pursing Your Purpose.

When it comes to career + purpose, we're talking all about...

• Grace's journey to creating her Brand of Beautiful
• God-given gifts vs. weaknesses that can be made strong
• Purpose + profit (hint: they don't always have to be the same)

When it comes to friendship, we chat through...

• Aristotle's 3 Pilars of Friendship (Pleasure, Convenience, and Goodness)
• Creating community in new places and old places
• Friendship breakups (!!!)

But the sweet spot of our convo is where purpose + friendship are intertwined: 

• Encouragement and discouragment from friends as we chase dreams
• How to call your friends UP, not OUT
• Girl-gut vs God-gut

And truthfully, so much more! I hope you love it!

What if your “now” didn’t have to define your forever?

In this candid conversation, I’m joined by my friend Jennifer Jacob — COO of Tique and founder of Explorateur Travel — to talk about the real-life pivots that helped her rebuild a beautiful life.

From sewing curtains in a Tuscan farmhouse as a form of escapism to launching a thriving travel business after a painful divorce... to mentoring other women in her field and launching a second thriving company in the same industry, Jen’s story is full of resilience, exploration, and evolution.

In this episode, we chat about:
• Using your 20s to create a “sample platter life”
• Escaping vs. running toward a new chapter
• How to rebuild after personal or professional setbacks
• The real behind-the-scenes of starting a business
• Why your life can evolve — again and again and again

Whether you’re exploring what’s next or rebuilding after a hard season, this one will remind you: you can always begin again.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing 5 real-life rhythms I’m leaning on right now to simplify life — from meal planning and date nights to slow mornings and protecting white space on my calendar.

Whether you’re in back-to-school mode or just in a season that feels full, this is your permission slip to pause, rethink your routines, and make room for what actually matters.

None of these tips are groundbreaking, but they’ve made a big difference in how grounded, steady, and connected I feel in this chapter — and I hope they help you too.

Inside the episode:

• My Sunday meal planning rhythm (and how I actually stick to it)

• Why I have always prep for mornings at night

• The case for date night in every season

• My early wake-up routine (and why it works for me)

• How I’m protecting margin in my work calendar — and my life

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, let’s simplify together.

In this episode, I’m sharing something I’ve been excited (and a little hesitant!) to bring to the podcast—an honest preview of the Your Brand of Beautiful Method: the 3-part framework I teach at retreats, sorority chapters, and conferences to help women stop spinning their wheels and start designing a life that actually feels like theirs.

You’ll hear how this method was shaped not only by my own personal journey, but also by the common threads I’ve seen across countless conversations—with podcast guests, audiences I’ve spoken to, and women from all walks of life. If you’ve ever felt stuck, lost in the noise, or like your life looks good on paper but doesn’t quite feel like you—this one’s for you.

This is not the full keynote or workshop (you’ll need to bring me to your community for that!), but I hope this episode serves as a powerful preview, a soft reset, or even a starting point. I walk through:

• Why busyness might be your biggest barrier to clarity

• How to quiet the noise—in your mind, schedule, and environment

• What it means to truly start being you

If you love this episode and want to hear the full talk in person, head to www.bailiewhite.com or email me directly at hey@bailiewhite.com. I’d love to join you and your people.

In this episode, I’m joined by my friend and attorney Paisley Piasecki — and y’all, this conversation is such a special one. We’re talking all about writing new chapters, navigating big transitions, and what it really looks like to build a life (and community) from scratch in a brand new city.

Paisley shares her journey of leaving a high-powered law career in NYC, moving to Savannah, and founding the now-thriving networking group Square 25. We talk about following your gut, creating space to think, and the underrated power of finding your favorite coffee shop when you’re starting over.

Whether you're in a season of change or dreaming about one, I think this episode will leave you feeling encouraged, seen, and maybe even a little braver.

Here’s what we cover:

• What to do in your first month in a new city
• The real reason she walked away from her “dream job” in NYC
• The power of journaling + getting granular when designing your next chapter
• How Square 25 grew into a creative hub for young professionals in Savannah
• Redefining what work-life balance actually looks like

This one is full of heart, honesty, and real-life inspiration. Let’s dive in.

Hey friends + welcome to what will actually be the last conversation episode for the spring of 2025 + part 1 of what will now be a 2-part season of the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast. This is a little bit of a change of plans but don’t worry, more updates on a solo-episode coming your way next week!

This week, we’re chatting about a true underdog story with author, Mary Marantz.

For those who don’t know her, Mary’s story is something special. She grew up in a West Virginia mountainside trailer + ended up being the first in her family to go to college — which just so happened to be Yale Law.

Today we’re talking all about her story + the books she’s written about it — including her newest, ‘Underestimated’ that comes out a WEEK FROM TODAY (pre-order details below).

In our conversation Mary is very poetically painting the picture of her life, including...

• How the dirt floor of her upbringing + the roots she thought would keep her chained to where she was forever, became the very thing that would open the door to Yale law.
• Why Slow Growth = Strong Roots is her life’s mantra (also the title of her second book).
• How her new book, Underestimated, uncovers that fear holds a lot of names (like Perfectionism, Procrastination, People Pleasing, Impostor Syndrome, Overthinking… 14 in total) -- including a deep dive on perfectionism in this conversation!

I just know this conversation is for someone out there listening and I can’t wait for you to dive in. You’ll have to tell me what you think!

About Mary Marantz: Mary Marantz grew up in a trailer in rural West Virginia. The first of her immediate family to go to college, she went on to earn a master’s degree in moral philosophy and a law degree from Yale. After ditching six-figure-salary law firm offers in London and New York and starting a business with her husband, Justin, together they have built their online education platform for creative entrepreneurs. Mary is a popular writer and speaker whose work has recently been featured by Business Insider, MSN, Bustle, and Brit+Co. And she is also the host of the iTunes Top 200 podcast, The Mary Marantz Show. She lives in an 1880s fixer-upper by the sea in New Haven, Connecticut with Justin and their two very fluffy golden retrievers, Goodspeed & Atticus.

Hey friends + welcome to another episode on the Your Brand of Beautiful Podcast!

In case you're new, this is the podcast where we chat with women who have created their own unique version of a beautiful life, in hopes that their stories, life experiences, or insider tips might inspire others to do the same.

This week, I got the chance to chat with Madeleine Raiford Holland about going from a Kitchen Table Breaking Point to a 7-Figure Family.

Madeleine is the founder + CEO of MHM Luxury Properties, a 7 figure boutique Short Term Rental company. She’s also the founder & CEO of MRH Education with a thriving community she helps to build their STR business empires.

If you’re anything like me, stories about women who hit their breaking point + decide to do something about it intrigues you. And also, the idea of investing in short term or vacation rental properties piques your interest! If so, you'll want to listen to this episode.

Madeleine is sharing about the very moment everything changed for her: sitting at her kitchen table, after a hard week, with a 6 month old baby + a husband who was equally as filled with exhaustion as she was.

Then, how from that moment, she got to where she is today -- owning 16+ properties + a 7-figure investment STR company.

Madeleine also shares…

• About times when she flopped or struggled getting started in business.
• How to tell if you’re a right fit for the STR biz + if it’s a right fit for you.
• And how becoming big givers was a huge turning point in she + her husband’s business.

I hope you love this conversation and learn from it the way I did!
