During these times, we are all having to find new ways to connect.
Join me every week as I talk with people that inspire me, about love, life, leadership, and silver linings.
The hope is that we all leave with something I think we need these days… A Bit of Optimism.
Death is a word we like to avoid. We dance around the subject or use vague euphemisms to not hurt anybody. But what if being open about our deaths meant we could live happier lives?
That’s where Alua Arthur comes in. Alua is one of the most prominent death doulas in the country, which means it’s her job to help people die. She offers support to her clients and their families as they embark on their dying journey, tackling everything from financial planning and insurance policy to emotional support and grief.
When I sat down with Alua, I was prepared for a grim conversation. Instead, I was pleasantly surprised by her candor and good humor about dying. She shares with me how she made a career pivot from lawyer to death dula, the most interesting stories she’s heard from people on their death bed, and why thinking about our deaths is the key to living the way we wish to live.
This…is A Bit of Optimism.

Honey & Hustle is a video podcast featuring conversations with creative entrepreneurs, small business owners, and non-profit founders in North Carolina.

This is where storytelling and entrepreneurship collide to give you a real-world MBA that feels like a movie.
Community building costs money. In this episode, I explore how IRL events and social platforms have transformed the way we build relationships, create communities, and derive value from our connections. I’m pulling from my own experience and reflections from a few sources listed below.
I’m sharing real world examples of the cost and potential revenue associated with building paid memberships and hosting in-person events as well as variations on the types of online communities that connect in real life. I also talk about ways to build authentic relationships online (read = slide into those comments and DMs!).
This episode is made for online creators, creative entrepreneurs, social media professionals, people building portfolio careers, and anyone interested in understanding the economics of community building.
