Our conversation with Ginger Chinn brings great perspective how even ‘small’ decisions can change your trajectory.
We talk about asking for what you want, allyship across genders, and that it’s totally OK to realize what you DON’T care about so you can focus on what you do! Ginger shows up with polish and grace in whatever she takes on, including sharing her PowerLane story with us.
Learn more about Ginger in the links below and settle in for Part 1 of our conversation now.

We’re back for Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Susan Madsen. Picking up where we left off in Part 1, we continue exploring her journey to becoming a strong researcher, cultivating specific strengths and skills, and growing into her “Tap.” We touch on allyship, sponsorship, and giving specific feedback, and the importance of recognizing that when others trust and depend on you, they see you as a leader. Learn more about Dr. Madsen and her newest initiative, A Bolder Way Forward, in the links below.

The journey of my friend, colleague, and mentor, Dr. Susan Madsen, in becoming an international scholar and movement-maker is full of wisdom and inspirational insights (and a mini-celebration of the benefits of double-knit!).
We learn how her childhood experiences and beliefs for the future helped shape her leadership style, and are inspired by her humble openness about both her strengths and her blind spots. She is seriously passionate about her work to move mountains for Utah’s women and girls -- and her honest reflection and willingness to tackle big issues might just light a fire in you, too!
Part 1 Quote
“I always knew I would get my education, but I never expected to work for pay. I just knew education would help me in any part of my life, including being a mother.”

The PowerLane Podcast is back after our brief break with an insightful conversation with Dr. Erin O’Brien. We talk with this grounded, articulate university professor about prioritizing education, the importance of making connections and living abroad, and how crafting a non-traditional career in academia has helped her design a PowerLane journey that allows her to focus on what’s most meaningful for her: teaching hard stuff, mentoring students, and paying it forward to help others find and shape their PowerLane.
Episode Quote
“I’m glad that I did all of that moving because I did learn over the years to be more confident and to understand ultimately (it took a few moves) that most people feel that way when they are faced with that situation.” - Dr. Erin O'Brien

August is in full swing, and we are thrilled to be celebrating nearly one year of the PowerLane! What a year it’s been! We’ve laughed, cried, and gone deep with so many brilliant humans, and this is just the beginning!
We have some exciting changes in the works, so we’re taking a short break from publishing, and we’ll be back in September to continue our PowerLane journey!
Before we go though, we get to hear from the fantabulous Glady Dalton about her Guest Ahas!
We held an appreciation party for our PowerLane guests last spring, and several of them joined us in the studio to share the take aways and ahas they’ve gained - both as a guest on the PowerLane podcast, and from listening in to others' inspiring stories. We've shared different guest perspectives over the last few months, and in the spirit of celebration and community, we invite you to share the PowerLane podcast with those you care about - and let us know what you think on socials @PowerLanePodcast.…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Linda Stay’s PowerLane journey is filled with deep passion, vulnerability, baseball bats to the gut, and life-affirming revelations. Her story is one of personal evolution through deep-rooted religion, chronic disease, work, faith, and family – all wrapped in love, determination, and sometimes pain. Leaning into the pain and beauty of whatever life sends her way, Linda embraces challenges as opportunities and listens to what’s right for her and those she cares for.
Part 3 of this heart-full conversation continues exploring kids as teachers, being part of Switchpoint and meeting people where they are, grieving loss and surviving cancer, and standing firm in emotion and vulnerability (including shedding more than a few tears together). True to her unique way, Linda’s mission-driven story continues with grace and passion.
Episode Quote
“I’ve always been a cause-driven person. I will work to the ends of the earth for a cause.”

In Part Two, Linda’s PowerLane story continues as she shares her very personal experience about how her faith transitioned, and how she moved from being an LGBTQ+ advocate for her kids, to active advocacy for the LGBTQ community – and what she lost and gained along the way.
Episode Quote
“Gender really doesn’t really have anything to do with it. It’s who you connect soul to soul, it’s who lights you up, it’s who sees you. That’s my dream for all my kids. I don’t care what gender they are.”

From being “Jamie and the kids” to living and working around the world, and now nurturing her roots back in her home state, this conversation brings laughter and fresh perspectives about a crazy range of foreign experiences and the many issues with which she chooses to engage in back home. It’s entertainment, intrigue, and education all wrapped into one!

Author and cancer warrior Liz Leedle shares her story of hope and feistiness, both in dealing with cancer and in life. Her book, Scream: The Dark and Humourous Lessons of a Cancer Warrior asks the questions, “Are you living? Or are you just living with cancer?” We talk about being the CEO of your own team, sincerely caring for one another, and career magic that’s worth passing on. I was immediately drawn in by her warmth and her smooth southern accent, and I gained so much wisdom and strength from her PowerLane story. I think you will too!

Michelle packs big passion and a big voice with sincerity and humility. An east coast native who now calls Utah home, she shows up in life with a strong sense of self and an expectation that everyone belongs. A desire and drive to learn leads to her tenacity for trying new things, and she lives within a growth mindset that she also looks for in others.
In these two episodes, we talk about work as service, community art, kids with disabilities, the gift of showing up, and intentionally trying to see the world through virgin eyes.

We are back this week with Dr. Sharon Richens for Part 2 of this two-part conversation that includes an array of insights that sprout from early messages of, “you can do whatever you want.” We talk girls in STEM, being outdoors, delivering babies on day one, thriving in medical entrepreneurship, and making brave family choices. We discover a few places where our career paths have crossed (lesson: don’t burn bridges!) and get to the core of what she terms “Hustle and Flow.”

This mom of eight, Kundalini yoga teacher, and construction and mortgage industry professional truly lives the title of her PowerLane episode! Nan’s peace-filled, centered approach to life took root after more than a decade of suffering debilitating migraines; it has since anchored several self- and life- transformations and endured both tragic loss and “campfire” joy. I mention in our early conversation that each time I learn something new about Nan, I feel like I learn something new about life – and this conversation stays true to that! I hope you find many of your own ahas as you listen, connect, and grow with us. Thanks for being here!

One of my best friends, our guest this week is a woman who shows up with heart, grit, and integrity for family, friends, work, and herself. Her entrepreneurial spirit showed up early – leading her down a career path based on what she’s good at – and evolving into a successful company and lifestyle that allows her to continue creating more of what she values. Along the way she raised a strong and empowered daughter, cultivated lasting friendships, and set her own rules for business, dating, and life.

Brace yourself for another empowering conversation with this week’s guest, Parul Somani. Parul’s work as a speaker, workshop facilitator, author, and life leadership coach is heavily influenced by her own life experience, including a hard-earned education, corporate-to-startup career track, surviving breast cancer as a new mom, and becoming an avid cancer research advocate. With degrees from MIT in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Economics - and a Harvard MBA – she shares how and why she pivoted her career to align more intentionally with the life she wishes to lead. Parul joins us from her Bay area homebase to share her story, what inspires her, and some of the treasured wisdom she’s gained so far in her PowerLane journey.

Alzerina’s story takes us on a journey from humble beginnings in Cape Verde, to Paris couture, to NYC and Times Square.
She has contagious energy (even virtually!) and an ability to bring big dreams to life. Her story is full of life lessons on setting goals, building relationships, trusting opportunity, and holding firm to a tenacious commitment to making the world more beautiful.
We learn about business, preserving culture, mentoring others, and the gifts we receive by sharing ourselves and giving back.

This week we chat with a truly savvy balancer-of-life, Melissa DeVries, about the intersection of discomfort and opportunity. From moving across the country sight unseen (multiple times!) to leaping into ultra-running (for fun!), she seeks balance in . The experience of being a mom, earning her doctorate in psychology, and responding to “I don’t think you can do that,” Melissa isn’t afraid to put herself in a zone of discomfort and confidently pushes back on the idea of “avoiding avoidance.” Que the giggles!

This week we chat with Sharon Rosenbaum: connector of women, enterprising entrepreneur, and dedicated community builder. As the owner and founder of SHE Sparks Business, Sharon walks her talk and truly believes that “Success Happens Everyday!” From moving 27 times as a child, to deciding that no one would push her harder than herself, her personal and entrepreneurial PowerLane journey is based on paying it forward and choosing to surround herself with women doing bigger, harder, faster things.

Join me over two weeks for this intimate conversation with the deeply wise, grounded, and accomplished renaissance woman, Janice Brooks. The owner of Jan Brooks Synergies, she is a PR consultant, serial volunteer, one-woman-show artist, life-long arts and humanities activist, and former Department of Energy operative, who shares her dynamic brilliance and unique life perspectives in these “vitamin B12” episodes.
Janice’s story weaves a tale of changing trajectories and personal reinvention; built on self-worth that was cultivated from childhood and the beautiful relationships that “traction and trust” create over time, she describes how getting all your butterflies going in the same direction brings you transformational strength. Her poise, confidence, and commitment to serving humanity and fostering cultural humility is shared with integrity and grit in her authentically harmonious way.

My guest this week is Blake Cason, a certified life and well-being coach (check out Pivot Wellness), professional rock climber (check out Beal), and soon to be TEDx speaker. She has been a guest on multiple climbing podcasts, offers Transformational Life Coaching sessions through Red Mountain Resort, and hosts personal growth retreats through Climbwell.
Blake’s perspective on charting her own course, sitting in curiosity with yourself and others, and building up the courage to go out on a limb, invites mindful exploration into the importance of cultural and intergenerational stories, and trusting what you know hits the spot for you right now.

This week I chat with a woman best described as a human prism: she carries her own sparkle and reflects the light of others. From growing up devout Catholic to (literally) letting her robe slip off, this literary artist and model, decorated athlete, non-profit founder, active volunteer, TEDx speaker, and Ms. Senior Universe, shares how having a default mode of YES! has transformed her life.
Some key take aways from this episode include:
· You can move from ‘being afraid of your own shadow’ to being the energy center of a room
· Yielding your power does not mean yielding your choice
· Reinventing yourself is a path to sparkle, freedom, and joy.
One of my favorite quotes from this discussion is that “Listening only to what others expect of you does not bring happiness.” – Marianne Hamilton

We join 2023 in true PowerLane fashion with a two-part episode with my friend, colleague, and amazing human, Dannielle Larkin. We explore how children, art, and storytelling are compelling life teachers, why truly listening and holding space in times of turmoil can be a gift, and how trusting ourselves to learn from challenges is critical for personal and communal growth.
In Part 1, Dannielle shares life experience and lessons from her youth, as a non-profit founder, a vocal advocate for the arts and active transportation, and especially as a parent. In Part 2, we dig into our shared anthropology roots, explore the reasons cities are formed and shaped, and the benefits to each individual when we work collectively, bring our ideas to the table, and trust one another.
Some key take aways from these two episodes include:
· That, ultimately, every person wants to be seen and heard.
· That where we put our energy and focus defines our experience.
· That perspectives and experiences shared through storytelling builds humanity.
One of my favorite quotes from this discussion is that “Putting your energy into things you cannot touch or impact is a way of avoiding living real life.” – Dannielle Larkin

“What’s going to hold you in the PowerLane is you and your energy.” – El Gunter
“If you feel safe in the area you’re working in, you’re not working in the right area. Always go a little further into the water than you feel you’re capable of being in. Go a little bit out of your depth. And when you don’t feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you’re just about in the right place to do something exciting.” – David Bowie

Join me for a mindful conversation with the honest and outspoken Shirlee Draper about her unique PowerLane journey. From growing up in a village of safety and belonging, which also happened to be a fundamentalist LDS (i.e. polygamous) community, to learning that helping others into their PowerLane is part of her calling, Shirlee’s story shifts the perspective of what getting an “F” can mean, how labels bind us and laws change lives, and why cultivating our own clarity practice can mean the difference between living and dying.
· Getting an “F”
· Surprise! Mainstream isn’t egalitarian after all
· A boat with no oars
· Relationships cancel bias
· Changing laws changes lives

This episode was recorded in the autumn beauty of the northern Utah mountains. Join me for a conversation with my long-time friend, Mohican Laine, about the power of education, knowing what you want (and staying focused on achieving it despite the twists and turns), and being a woman who supports other women. Mohican’s unique perspective and life experience will leave you with a smile and a new appreciation for owning your own power.
