In this episode, we talk about:

• How professionalism has shifted from appearance-based to presence-based

• Why confidence and the way you carry yourself matter more than ever

• The evolution of women’s workplace fashion from structured to relaxed

• How COVID and remote work changed professional dress culture

• The pressure women still face around appearance and being “taken seriously”

• Social media’s influence on workplace style and personal branding

• Why tailoring, styling, and intentionality can completely change an outfit

• The double standards women face when femininity and professionalism overlap

The takeaway:

Professionalism today looks different than it did decades ago and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The rules have evolved, women have evolved and success is no longer tied to fitting into one rigid mold. At the end of the day, it’s less about dressing perfectly and more about showing up intentionally, confidently, and authentically as yourself. 

In this episode, we pull up a chair for Kristen Constantino, founder of 'The Shining Method' and coach for women healing from toxic relationships, trauma bonds, and identity loss. Kristen helps women rebuild their confidence, break unhealthy cycles, and rise into the love they truly deserve. She also shares details about her upcoming book, Shattered to Shining, which tells her personal story and the roadmap she wishes she had while healing.

This conversation is about healing generational patterns, understanding trauma bonds, learning what secure love looks like, and realizing that peace can be more powerful than chaos.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How toxic relationship patterns often begin long before romance

• Recognizing red flags and emotional abuse in relationships

• Why trauma bonds feel so hard to break

• Rebuilding confidence and identity after heartbreak

• The difference between chaotic love and secure love

• Why healing is not linear, but always worth it

• Manifesting aligned partnership after doing the inner work

The takeaway:

Healing isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about returning to who you were before pain convinced you otherwise. Sometimes the most powerful love story starts with finally choosing yourself.

Jael’s journey into low tox living began when her husband became severely ill, forcing them to step outside of traditional medicine and explore alternative paths to healing. What started as a desperate search for answers evolved into a complete lifestyle shift.

What began as a personal journey turned into a mission-driven business - building a new standard for what luxury living can look like.

This conversation is about questioning the norm, trusting your intuition, and creating a life and business aligned with your values.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Jael’s journey into low-tox and holistic living

• Healing gut health, hormones, and chronic health challenges

• Questioning traditional health and wellness norms

• The connection between your home environment and your health

• Redefining luxury through wellness-focused real estate

• Building a business rooted in purpose and personal experience

• The importance of balance in a low-tox lifestyle

• Sober curiosity and reevaluating social norms

In this episode, we pull up a chair for Haley Dawood, founder of The Idea Hunter, an award-winning corporate event agency, to talk about the pivot that changed the trajectory of her career and the unexpected path that followed.

After working her way into corporate roles with major brands, Haley was laid off at 25. Instead of rushing into another job, she stepped into her mom’s small event business, something she originally saw as temporary. But as she got deeper into the work, she realized there was an opportunity to build something bigger.

What started as a short-term pivot turned into building and scaling a business from the ground up - navigating growth, uncertainty, and the realities of entrepreneurship along the way.

This conversation is about trusting your instincts, redefining success, and building something that aligns with who you are - not just what looks good on paper.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Navigating unexpected career pivots

• The shift from corporate structure to entrepreneurship

• Building and scaling a business from the ground up

• Redefining success as a woman in business

• Trusting timing and leaning into unexpected opportunities

• The journey of content creation and building a personal brand

The takeaway: Not every path is meant to be linear and sometimes the thing you never planned becomes the thing that changes everything.

In this episode, Marli, Morgan + Carley, co-founders of Power Haus Women, reflect on the past year, the Year of the Snake, sharing what defined their personal and professional journeys and the lessons that came with them. From navigating change to letting go of what no longer aligned, each of them opens up about the shifts that helped them move forward with more confidence and intention.

This conversation sets the tone for the year ahead, the Year of the Fire Horse, one focused on bold decisions, meaningful growth, and building lives and businesses that feel aligned.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Reflecting on personal and professional growth

• Letting go of what no longer aligns

• Building confidence and trusting your instincts

• Evolving friendships and intentional relationships

• Redefining success and productivity

• Setting the tone for the Year of the Fire Horse

The takeaway: Growth often comes from change and when you embrace it, you create space for the next level.

Today we’re pulling up a chair for Emily Dempsey, founder of Brickell Babes (and low-key Miami’s main character). What started as a simple way to make friends in a new city has turned into a full-blown community and movement for ambitious women living in Brickell.

In this conversation, Emily shares the messy middle of starting over, why she left a corporate job in NYC for something totally uncertain, and how she’s navigated the highs and lows of building a brand, a following, and a real community from scratch.

In this episode of At the Table with Power Haus Women, we’re sitting down with a true powerhouse: Rosanna Ortiz — founder of RMOPR, StyleWeek, and now, Wine X Festival.

Rosie’s been a mentor and major influence in both Kelsey and Marli’s careers, so this one hits different. From launching one of the biggest fashion platforms on the East Coast to reimagining community through real estate and events, Rosanna shares what it looks like to evolve without losing your integrity — and why charisma is still the most underrated superpower in business.

✨ What we get into:

• The story behind StyleWeek and what it taught her
• Saying yes to the next big idea: Wine X Festival
• Why charisma > credentials
• Boundaries, people-pleasing, and the power of saying no
• Designing spaces that actually support mental health
• Why we need more women in real estate and development
• Staying rooted when the industry wants you to pivot

If you’ve ever felt the tension between going bigger and staying grounded — this one’s for you.
