Startups in Stilettos

“I sat there and I'm like, how do I, how do I manage this? Because it's like, I'm raising a generation of two men. This is not what he needs to see. This is what women do. And that was so, and it was just powerful for me to take it in. Again, things don't happen to us, they happen for us.” On this episode of Startups in Stilettos, we sit down with Sharon Ringier, founder of The Possible Woman Collective and publisher of Possible Woman Magazine. Sharon shares her powerful journey of resilience, navigating a decade of unexplained hospitalizations, a life-changing health diagnosis, and the challenges of raising two sons while building her vision. What began as a women’s empowerment conference grew into a thriving collective and magazine that champions women entrepreneurs, providing them with clarity, confidence, and a safe space to grow together. Sharon opens up about the mentors who shaped her path, the lessons she’s learned about leading with heart, and the importance of creating community over competition.

“I really had to think about this and decide what I could offer that would be unique and really help have me stand out in the crowd. And I think one of the things is, is not that many people come forward with their story.” In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, hosts Ingrid Zapata-Read and Carlyn Bushman sit down with Jessie Jaskulsky, founder of Surrogacy Simplified, a concierge and consulting firm guiding intended parents through the surrogacy journey. Jessie opens up about her deeply personal path to motherhood, including pregnancy loss, infertility, and the challenges of surrogacy, and how she transformed that lived experience into a mission-driven business. She shares why vulnerability and community are vital in an often-isolating process, the obstacles parents face from emotional costs to financial barriers, and how she’s creating safe, judgment-free spaces for support. Whether you’re navigating your own fertility journey or building a business rooted in personal experience, Jessie’s story is a powerful reminder that sharing your truth can change lives.

“You shouldn't just look for mentors who are five years, 10 years ahead of you. There's a lot of value in having people who are in it with you right now because we're always learning and there's things that someone else might know that you don't know.” Forget everything you thought you knew about finding a mentor. On this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid are flipping the script on traditional mentorship. We often believe a mentor must be someone decades ahead of us, but what if the most powerful guidance comes from those walking the path beside us right now? Ingrid and Carlyn dive into their own journeys, from when "Google was my mentor," to building a powerful, diversified network of advisors and peers. They break down the three essential levels of a modern support system: mentoring up to those you aspire to be like, leaning on your "mentor equals" for real-time collaboration, and paying it forward to guide those just starting out. Because building a business doesn't have to be a solo journey.

“Everyone wants the magic wand solution for this, and I always have to disappoint people a little bit. It's just kind of hard work sometimes, that's a good thing, everything worthwhile is, and it helps you to be able to build relationships very intentionally in the right way.” In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid sit down with Emily Hall, founder of Rhetorik Agency, to explore the power of long-term thinking in entrepreneurship. Emily shares why focusing on a 7-year vision, rather than short-term reactions, can elevate founders into their highest, most strategic roles. Whether you're a seasoned speaker or just starting out, Emily’s strategies will help you communicate with impact and build authority in your industry. Plus, learn why investors are now asking startups about their thought leadership strategy, how to leverage AI without losing your unique voice in thought leadership, and how you can stay a stride ahead.

"When our minds and our bodies are in alignment, when our thoughts and our actions are congruent and they're happening parallel, then we're actually living in a space where we're living slower lives, where we're not hurting people as much, where we're not as in threat as much, where we're more flexible and nuanced." In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid sit down with Dominique Harrison, founder of The Racial Equity Therapist, to explore how systemic norms have historically privileged white male entrepreneurs and how we can rewrite the rules by centering Black, BIPOC, and femme founders. Dominique breaks down why starting with those who’ve been marginalized doesn’t just fill gaps, it creates a rising tide for all entrepreneurs. Dominique also shares personal stories from her journey as a therapist and entrepreneur, and unpacks the mindset shifts needed to move from scarcity to abundance. From financial planning mentorship to reparative leadership practices, this conversation is a call to action: let's work to stop gatekeeping resources, start repeating equitable practices, and watch the colorful garden that blooms.

“When you're dealing with a challenging person, it's not necessarily that they have something against you, there might be something going on in their business, in their life, or maybe they just don't understand, especially when it comes to community.” Ever found yourself saying "Sure, I can do that!" only to realize later it was a major time-suck and distraction from your true zone of genius? On this episode of Startups and Stilettos, hosts Carlyn Bushman and Ingrid Zapata-Read dive into the tough but necessary lessons of setting boundaries, vetting clients, and knowing when to say no. From overpromising early in business to recognizing red flags before they become full-blown problems, Carlyn and Ingrid share their personal stories of difficult client relationships, including the moment they had to "break up" with a client to protect their team and sanity. Tune in for real talk on turning challenging client situations into growth opportunities because your time, energy, and expertise deserve to be valued.

“Just start somewhere and I promise you, like when you open it out to the universe and you put it out there, the right people and the right connections will come into your path.” In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid sit down with Traci Channer, founder of The Decided Collection, a pajama brand for tween girls designed to boost confidence and self-acceptance. Traci shares her journey from corporate burnout to entrepreneurship, revealing how her daughter’s struggle to find stylish, comfortable pajamas sparked a mission-driven business. She opens up about the messy middle of entrepreneurship, the power of trusting her gut, and how her family’s adoption journey deepened her purpose. Traci also dives into the realities of pivoting from a 15-year corporate career, the importance of community (especially through platforms like Entreprenista), and how she involves her daughter in the business as her toughest and most honest critic.

In this episode of Startups in Stilettos, hosts Ingrid Zapata Read and Carlyn Bushman sit down with Natasha Walstra, founder of NearPoint Strategies and a social selling coach, to discuss why real business growth happens off the platform.

“We have to practice on just a simple daily basis, waking up in the morning, and just starting to tune in. What is the message that my body is giving me today? How do I feel?” In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid sit down with Emily Aarons, business strategist, energy healer, and creator of The Energetic Advantage. Emily shares her unique approach to blending energy work with practical business strategy, helping entrepreneurs align their energy to scale sustainably and soulfully. With 25 years of experience in energy healing, Emily dives into why healing isn’t a "one-and-done" process, it’s a continuous journey of growth. Emily shares why business growth and spiritual growth go hand-in-hand: you can’t build a thriving brand without doing the deeper soul work. From throat chakra blocks (hello, visibility fears), to heart chakra boundaries (why do we struggle so much with saying no?), Emily unpacks common energetic hurdles for women founders and shares rituals to stay aligned amid the chaos. Plus, don’t miss Emily tapping into Carlyn’s and Ingrid’s energy, revealing intuitive insights about their next paths.
