Success, confidence, fulfillment—are they really the same thing?

This week on Women Express, entrepreneur, author, and healthcare executive Chantell Preston joins Denise and Nia for a candid conversation about confidence, career pivots, burnout, leadership, and the pressure women face to "have it all."

From building and selling a successful company to navigating life's unexpected transitions, Chantell shares why fulfillment, authenticity, and self-trust matter far more than titles, timelines, or perfection. Plus, the trio unpacks social media comparison, work-life integration, finding your voice, and why women need to stop waiting for permission to take up space.

If you've ever felt behind, burned out, or unsure of what's next, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Denise sits down with negotiation expert Mori Taheripour for a candid, conversation on what it really takes to advocate for yourself—and why it matters now more than ever. Denise and Mori have been friends for years, and that long-standing trust brings depth, honesty, and real-world perspective to this discussion.

Together, they break down why so many women hesitate to ask for more, how mindset shapes outcomes long before you enter the room, and why negotiation is not about winning—it’s about clarity, collaboration, and respect. Mori shares how knowing your value changes the way you show up, speak, and hold your ground, especially in high-pressure moments.

This episode also explores the internal shifts that build lasting confidence: moving out of overthinking, stepping away from validation-seeking, and learning to trust your voice without overexplaining it. It’s a powerful reminder that negotiation starts well before the conversation begins—and that owning your value is the foundation for everything that follows.
