Turn Up The Volume
The Turn Up The Volume Podcast is the unapologetic voice of micro and solo business owners, those building big dreams from the ground up, often with limited resources but limitless ambition. Created by Monique LaRue, founder of The MOSO, the podcast celebrates the MOSO Mentality—the unwavering resilience, creativity, and hustle it takes to keep going, even when the world doesn’t see you (yet).
In each episode, we are turning up the volume on the economic power of MOSOs through real stories, reflective solo episodes, and candid conversations that highlight how micro and solo business owners are not only surviving but also shaping the future of work, wealth, and community.
From building a brand while caregiving, to launching your next big thing with just grit and a Gmail account, Turn Up the Volume is your space to feel seen, stay inspired, and remember that micro or solo doesn’t mean minor—it means choice.
Turn Up the Volume. Live the MOSO Life.

Ep.5 - Amanda Leigh Doueihi + Monique LaRue: Spirituality, Shame & Sexuality: Part 1
To say this conversation has to continue is an underSTATEMENT; Amanda Leigh Doueihi (Dway-he) is your wing-woman in love, life, and business. She founded Ask Astarte, a community she created where women feel safe to explore their sexuality, needs, and desires without fear of repercussion or judgment. Amanda's core value is belonging, and she thrives on community. Her mission is to remind women about sacred, conscious sexuality. Whether they choose celibacy or to be sexually active.
Amanda grew up within a strict Maronite Catholic Lebanese community in Sydney, Australia. While she now deeply appreciates her heritage, she also recognizes the challenges that existed, and continue to, for those of us raised in two worlds.
She spent eight years in New York working as a lawyer and found that time away helped her to come home to herself and discover who she was outside of the noise of expectations.
She has almost completed studying for a VITA coaching certification in love, sex, and intimacy at The Tantric Institute of Integrated Sexuality. Amanda takes pleasure in helping to guide you to feel comfortable in your desires, whatever they may be.
"Stay connected, stay mindful."
