Ep. 6 The Manage Her: Leslie Christen on Turning Grief Into Grit & Leading with Heart
In this deeply personal episode of The Manage Her, Aimee Rickabus reconnects with longtime friend and fellow Laguna Beach High School alum, Leslie Christen—a powerhouse business owner, mom of two boys, widow, and one of the original founding members of the Office Hours Girls Club.
Together, they dive into Chapter 1 of The Manage Her, exploring the invisible labor of holding it all together, the resilience required to rebuild after loss, and how women like Leslie rise above doubt, grief, and the patriarchy to lead with soul and strength.
You’ll hear real talk about motherhood, entrepreneurship, sisterhood, and the tech tools that help make it all work. From AI apps to Office Hours snack rituals—this one’s for every woman carrying more than anyone sees.
