Radical Self Care for Women Who Carry Everything with Anne Peterson & Dr. Robyn Alley-Hay

What happens when high-achieving women finally pause long enough to ask why they are so exhausted? In this candid and deeply reflective conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe is joined by Anne Peterson, leadership coach and retreat facilitator, and Dr. Robyn Alley-Hay, retired OB/GYN and physician development coach, to redefine what self-care truly means for women who carry responsibility, ambition, and care for others every day.

 

Drawing from their professional work and lived experience with burnout, illness, and reinvention, Anne and Robyn explore self-care as an act of sovereignty rather than indulgence. They unpack why women’s exhaustion is not a personal failing but the result of systemic expectations, invisible emotional labor, and a culture that undervalues care. The conversation moves beyond surface-level wellness to address boundaries, rest, community, emotional awareness, and financial clarity as essential components of sustainable well-being.

Choice Is Dignity with Stephanie Georges

After four decades guiding companies through disruption and reinvention, Stephanie Georges realized she was applying every lesson to everyone but herself. In this episode of Wealth B-Hers, Stephanie sits down with Felecia to unpack the slow, quiet unraveling that led her to walk away from a senior leadership career in defense technology, and how that leap became the Meraki Dignity Project, a platform built to help women navigate change with clarity, community, and financial confidence.

Foundations #9: Community Changes How Women Build Wealth

We talk a lot about the internal work of building wealth: reframing what money means, examining our triggers, defining what security looks like for you. In this episode, Felecia turns to something we don’t talk about enough, the myth that financially successful women figure everything out alone. She unpacks how isolation taxes our financial lives in decisions delayed, opportunities missed, and energy spent performing a confidence we don’t actually feel, and makes the case for why the right community isn’t about accountability check-ins, but about something deeper: belief, believing in yourself and being in a room with other women who believe in you.

What If the Money in Your Account Isn’t Real Wealth? with Paul Musson

There is a version of financial security that many women were taught to chase: high income, a respected title, a steady paycheck, benefits, a retirement account. And while those things matter, they don’t always bring the peace we expect. Sometimes, what looks secure from the outside is actually only stable as long as nothing changes.
