In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Fran Hauser, bestselling author, keynote speaker, LinkedIn Top Voice, former Time Inc. President of Digital, startup investor, and founder of Bedford Books (the first bookstore in Bedford, New York's 344-year history). 

We talk about why kindness is actually a career accelerator, what to do when you feel stuck professionally, the guilt that comes with working motherhood, how to know if a career pivot is right for you, and why Fran took the leap on a brick-and-mortar bookstore in an Amazon world. Plus, she gives us a sneak peek at her forthcoming Penguin Random House book, Twenty Minutes Is the New Hour, coming September 2026. This one is for every woman who's ever been told she's too nice to get ahead, and every man who needs to hear it too.
