This week, we sit down with glass-ceiling smasher, corporate and nonprofit leader, Atlanta booster, storyteller, mentor, mother and grandmother, community organizer, and woman of the hour Hala Moddelmog. Hala is a fellow Atlantian, spending nearly her entire career in this southeastern metropolis. Shout out for the home team!

In our 30-minute conversation, Hala shares her story of “having it all,” her unwavering commitment to the Atlanta community, her experience with storytelling and art as mechanisms for learning and change, and her incredible take on how to invest in others “doing the work.”

This week, Narkis Alon joins I AM Radio to share her experience and, now, expertise with pleasure and power. Narkis is a serial social entrepreneur, bestselling author and community builder.

As an entrepreneur and someone who was never shy to pick up a microphone 🎤, she says she used to appear empowered and confident but in reality, she was seeking validation. At the time, she had yet to truly understand or embrace her body and sexuality. In our conversation, she explains her ah-ha moment and the challenging journey that followed. We packed this story into 30 minutes (Cliffs Notes, girl), but you can dive deeper (and we recommend that you do!) with her bestselling book “Present Woman” which explores the connection between our relationships with our bodies and leadership.

This fun and introspective conversation takes us down unexpected paths as we discuss nomadic life, embracing discomfort for the sake of growth, all-girls schools, muting voices to find your own and forgetting to hit “unmute”, improvising, and dispelling the idea of being “too much!”

“I have seen as a researcher that there is only so far we can go until culture catches up.”

Listen now to I AM Radio: “Culture Needs to Catch Up” with Gretchen Barton! In this episode, Gretchen shares her work as a researcher, which centers around the psychology underpinning behavior change and rewriting narratives. She explains that it’s not enough to have women represented in media, we need to change HOW they are being represented. Her most recent project, American Leadership Project, does just that as she partners with impact organizations and “Hollywood” to tell better stories (the TRUE stories) of women in leadership and women wielding power.

In this episode, we discuss everything from presidential elections and entrepreneurship to skiing and Jonathan Taylor Thomas! We learn how the stories she heard from Holocaust survivors in her community as a child influenced her pursuit of psychology and research. And how founding a business was a bold act to follow her passion AND create the change she hoped to see in the world.

This week on I AM Radio, we are joined by a leader in technology and innovation and the Founder of Prismm, Martha Underwood. Martha has also signed on as talent for I AM Series to share her expertise, particularly regarding the connection between money and power.

Martha's story unfolds over 32 minutes of soulful, cup-filling conversation and inspiration. In this episode, we discuss everything from building relationships to transferring intergenerational wealth and end-of-life planning (+ women's role in that process) to strengthening our money mindset.

We’re just going to say it - Jen Mazer makes dreams come true!

No, she doesn’t have a magic wand 🪄 (well actually, she might!), but she’s not magic - she's the Queen of Manifestation. Jen’s coaching, workshops, and book have helped countless people manifest their full potential and live their BIG dream. (*Raises hand* Us too! 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️)

And on this week's episode of I AM Radio, we sit down with Jen to talk about her work as our business and mindset coach (and how she knew we’d pursue the I AM Docuseries before we did!) and the power of manifestation!

This week, we sit down with Lisa Cunningham, Director of the I AM Docuseries, Professional Storyteller and Digital Content Creator, Activist, and Founder of Take What You Need.

In 30-ish minutes, Lisa shares her story of pivoting - or in her words the REMIX 🎶 - from her successful career in the entertainment industry, directing and producing music videos with the stars, to becoming a digital content and creative director dedicated to advocacy work within health, LGBTQ+ and DEI initiatives.
