On today’s episode, Ysenia is joined by Tabitha Calhoun, a DEI leader and pay equity expert, to talk about the gender pay gap. If you’ve ever felt like there’s an invisible force working against you at work… you’re not crazy.

We break down what the gender pay gap actually means, why women still make roughly 82 cents on the dollar (and significantly less for many women of color), and how unpaid labor and intersectionality compound the gap over a lifetime.

We also get practical:

• What questions to ask employers about compensation and promotion pathways
• Why tying pay to previous salary perpetuates inequity
• How state legislation shapes pay transparency
• How to advocate for yourself inside systems that weren’t built with women in mind

This episode is about understanding the system — so you can navigate your paycheck, promotions, and retirement with more clarity and confidence.

In this special trio episode of Talk Rich To Me, Stephanie and Ysenia are joined by Khammi Hurd, a Human Design practitioner, to explore how understanding your energy can make decision-making—even around money—feel clearer and easier.

Khammi breaks down the four Human Design energy types (Manifestors, Generators/Manifesting Generators, Projectors, and Reflectors), what “strategy” and “authority” actually mean, and how your body—not your mind—can be your most reliable guide. You’ll also learn the difference between defined vs. open centers, why some people need time to ride an emotional wave before deciding, and how Human Design can build more empathy in relationships (partners, kids, coworkers).

We also connect Human Design back to finances: how your decision-making style impacts goal setting, self-worth, risk, burnout, and even the pressure to “prove yourself.”

In this episode, we cover:

• What Human Design is (and why it’s more than a horoscope)
• The 4 energy types + how each is designed to move through the world
• Strategy & authority: how to make aligned decisions
• Defined vs. open centers and what that means for consistency and conditioning
• Money + Human Design: self-worth, goals, and trusting your body

Because sometimes we’re just using strategies that don’t fit how we’re wired. If you’re curious about connecting mindset, personality, and financial confidence, this one’s for you.

In this episode of Talk Rich To Me, Stephanie is joined by Jen Slaski, therapist, brand consultant, and former tech marketing leader, for a conversation about understanding your personal currency—beyond just money— and what it really takes to get unstuck.

Jen shares her early money story, corporate success, and what ultimately led her from tech into therapy. Together, they explore how mental well-being often matters more than your paycheck.

Jen introduces a practical framework for clarity and momentum:

• Name it to tame it: identify what’s keeping you stuck
• Excavate your values—and recognize how they shift across life seasons
• Redefine currency beyond money
• Get practical: understand your real numbers, needs vs. wants, and true run rate

They also discuss why money is emotional, how scarcity shows up even at high income levels, and why using just 20% of your day in your natural strengths can dramatically increase life satisfaction.

If you’re feeling restless, stuck or like your living life on autopilot, this episode is for you.
