Allison Bio:
Best known for her starring role as Marnie on six seasons of HBO's Emmy and Golden Globe winning series GIRLS, Allison Williams has built a career spanning acclaimed television and blockbuster film — from Jordan Peele's Oscar-winning GET OUT to M3GAN, which she starred in and produced, grossing $181 million worldwide.
Beyond the screen, she recently launched LANDLINES, a podcast with her two lifelong best friends, an early childhood educator and a therapist. Together they turn 30 years of friendship into candid, shame-free conversations about adulthood and parenting, blending humor with real expertise.
From leading roles to honest conversations about motherhood, Allison brings both wit and vulnerability to the table.

He is a spiritual maverick and the originator of Life Visioning, his proprietary method for inner transformation and peace. In 1986 he founded the Agape International Spiritual Center, a trans-denominational community headquartered in Los Angeles that welcomes thousands of local members and global live streamers each week.
He is the bestselling author of Life Visioning, The Answer Is You, and Spiritual Liberation, books that bridge science and spirituality, and the host of the weekly podcast Take Back Your Mind. Oprah Winfrey has described his teaching as unlocking what is unique, mighty, and magnificent inside each of us.
Affectionately known as "Rev," Michael guides people to ask the empowering questions and arrive at the ultimate realization that the answer is you.
Ryan Michelle Bio:
A Stanford graduate with an MFA from New York University, Ryan Michelle Bathé has built a two-decade career across film and television — from attorney Sara Holt on ABC's Boston Legal to leading roles in First Wives Club, This Is Us, and NBC's The Endgame, plus a first-look production deal with ViacomCBS.
Beyond the screen, she is known for her candor, humor, and heart. Alongside her husband Sterling K. Brown, she co-hosts We Don't Always Agree, an NAACP Image Award winning podcast on marriage, parenting, and family life, and she currently hosts the official companion podcast for Hulu's Paradise. She is a mother of two sons.
From leading lady to honest voice on marriage and motherhood, Ryan invites others into the conversations most of us avoid.
Shawn Bio:
Diagnosed at 20 with degenerative disc disease and told his condition was incurable, Shawn Stevenson took responsibility for his own healing and reversed it — a turning point that led him to become a nutritionist, coach, and one of the most trusted voices in health today. He is the host of The Model Health Show, which reaches millions of listeners each year, and the bestselling author of Sleep Smarter, Eat Smarter, and The Eat Smarter Family Cookbook.
Beyond the science, Shawn is known for his warmth and his belief that transformation begins with a single decision. A devoted husband and father, he built his work around a simple idea: a family that eats together, thrives together.
From patient to teacher, Shawn helps people remember they were never meant to hand their health over to anyone else.
Suzi Bio:
A pioneer in the field of Spiritual Psychology, Suzi Lula is a sought-after spiritual counselor, teacher, and inspirational speaker, and the bestselling author of The Motherhood Evolution: How Thriving Mothers Raise Thriving Children — a book Dr. Shefali calls foundational for all mothers. She hosts the Permission to Thrive podcast and offers a library of transformational self-study courses at SuziLula.com.
Beyond the teaching, Suzi is an advocate for mothers everywhere to thrive. Her work centers on Soul Care, healing the heart of the inner child, and the belief that taking care of yourself first is the greatest gift you can give your family. She is a wife and mother to a college-age son.
From self-abandonment to soul care, Suzi gives mothers permission to thrive.
Sara Bio:
Starting with $5,000 in savings and no background in fashion, Sara Blakely built Spanx into a global brand — going from door-to-door fax machine salesperson to founder of a company Blackstone valued at $1.2 billion in 2021. Forbes named her the world's youngest self-made female billionaire in 2012. In 2024 she launched Sneex, a comfortable high-heeled sneaker of her own design.
Beyond the business, she is known for her generosity and heart. When Spanx sold, she gave every one of her 750 employees $10,000 and two first-class tickets anywhere in the world. Through the Sara Blakely Foundation, she supports women's education and entrepreneurship globally. She is a wife and mother of four.
From one bold idea to a global movement, Sara reminds women that not knowing the rules can be your greatest advantage.
Jennifer Bio:
For nearly thirty years, Jennifer Rudolph Walsh sat at the nexus of entertainment and media. As WME's sole female board member and global head of its literary, lectures, and conference divisions, she represented luminaries including Oprah Winfrey, Brené Brown, Alice Munro, and Sue Monk Kidd. In 2016 she co-founded Together Live, a traveling intersectional women's tour that visited thirty-five cities over four years and lit more than fifty thousand souls on fire.
Beyond the accolades, she is a believer in the healing power of story. In 2024, after what she calls a sacred pause, she opened Godmothers with Victoria Jackson — a bookstore and gathering space in Summerland, California, that is less a store and more a storefront for magic. She also serves as a board advisor to SeeHer, the National Book Foundation, and Kenyon College.
From boardroom to bookstore, Jennifer builds places where people belong.
