Hello! Today's episode is so necessary, eye-opening, and I can't wait to share it with you. Daphne Delvaux, also known as The Mamattorney, is on the podcast and she is a wealth of knowledge and legal information that we are never ever taught. As women, balancing our careers and being mothers is the trickiest thing, and it can be the most anxiety-provoking thing to bring up the idea of maternity policies with your employers. She has all the advice for maximizing time with your newborn, negotiating more flexible hours during pregnancy, how to ask for a company's policies, ways to get maternity leave extensions, where to go to figure out your states' legal policies, and a lot more. This is SO important, and I feel honored to have had Daphne on!

Alexia Ioannou is on the pod and I love her!! This is a fun chat about going with your gut, leading with the things you like, and learning it all as you go. Alexia reveals the influences that have shaped her vision (her mom's shoe closet!) and walks us through the process of designing her dream shoe from concept to creation. We get into how she learned how to tune out the external noise and truly honor her own aesthetic instincts - a lesson applicable far beyond the fashion world. Sometimes the most powerful tool for success is starting small and seeing what happens when you give yourself permission to try. Love her relatability, charm, and she is here to lead us to all the best shoes.

The absolutely wonderful Jefferson Fisher is here and I couldn't be happier to have him on With Whit! He is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to straightforward communication and he breaks down the essential elements of communication that we all can apply whether navigating difficult conversations or simply wanting to express ourselves more clearly in daily life. He goes over the most common mistakes we all make in communicating, the specific things that get under his skin personally, what works for him and his partner, and the interesting dynamics of being both a well-known person and a working trial lawyer. His book The Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk More offers digestible tools and specific blueprints for improving our next conversations, and after this interview I ran to download the audiobook version. There's a reason why everyone loves Jefferson Fisher!
