Send us a text Certified coach and author Gabriela Embon believes that a fulfilling adult life hinges on two essential components: an ideal career and a thriving primary relationship. Weeks before her wedding, Gabriela had a vivid dream that changed the course of her life. The man waiting for her at the alter wasn't her fiance, but a friend. Shaken and convinced this was a sign, Gabriela instinctively canceled the wedding, despite having meticulously planned it all. This decision, driven by a profound sense of intuition, was a pivotal moment that guided her towards understanding the true essence of love, partnership and what it takes to become a "Power Couple". Her instinctive decision to end her engagement paved the way for meeting her true soulmate, with whom she has 3 beautiful children and has been happily married 26 years. In the last 2 decades as a coach, Gabriela has dedicated herself to helping couples build fulfilling and enduring relationships. Through the pages of her debut release, "Becoming a Power Couple- 4 Pillars to Engineer Legendary Marriages", Gabriela empowers individuals to embrace the principles of the 4 Pillars and build a union that grows stronger and more fulfilling with each passing day. It debunks the myth that "marriage takes freedom away", and that "passion can't survive in a long-term relationship" and offers a model for achieving blissful liberating unions.

Send us a text From escaping an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community at age 42 to becoming a fashion mogul and Netflix star, Julia shares her poignant story of courage, strength, and transformation. Learn about her struggles and triumphs from this intimate conversation with Kristina. Julia Haart Bio: Julia Haart is a self-made businesswoman, designer, and bestselling author. She was raised in an Ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. At age 42 she fled, changed her name, and without any formal education or background in fashion launched her career as a designer with her namesake shoe collection.

In 2021, Julia and her NETFLIX hit series "My Unorthodox Life", which streams in over 190 countries, took the world by storm. In her memoir BRAZEN, Julia writes with radical vulnerability and honesty, sharing her deeply personal journey of heartbreak, resilience, and courage to flee a fundamentalist community. Released in April 2022, BRAZEN became an instant bestseller in the U.S. and U.K. Above all else, Julia applies her experience and platform to be a force for positive change in the world and supporting women who have dedicated their lives to building a better future. With the right for women to choose under threat, Julia's taken a leading role in the pro-choice movement marching in support of women's rights, rallying her community of influential friends and followers, supporting organizations such as #VoteProChoice and Plan C, and serving on the Advisory Council of the Equal Rights Amendment Coalition. With so much at stake at home in the U.S., Julia has also worked tirelessly to campaign for pro-choice politicians and support organizations such as Emerge America to help recruit and train like-minded women to run for office. As a champion of democracy globally, Julia fights for the right to freedom around the world including Iran and Ukraine where she led a mission to deliver ambulances and critical humanitarian supplies.

Varuni begins by discussing her privileged yet chaotic upbringing in India. She talks about her parents, who were university professors from different caste backgrounds, and the liberal and evolved household they maintained. Despite this, Varuni faced familial challenges, often acting as the glue that held her family together. The conversation transitions to her complicated courtship and marriage to her husband, a stroke surgeon.

Her eventual marriage led her to move from India to Detroit, where she encountered severe cultural changes and social isolation as she adapted to a new life. Varuni explains the complexities of the immigration system, particularly the limitations and struggles arising from her spousal visa, which initially barred her from working. Despite these challenges, she pursued a career in journalism and succeeded in obtaining jobs, though faced a hostile work environment that deeply affected her mental health and self-esteem.

Gretchen shares her emotional journey after her son, Liam, was diagnosed with cancer at age two. After discovering that pediatric cancer was hugely underfunded, Gretchen organized a massive bake-a-thon, resulting in 96,000 cookies and $420,000 for pediatric cancer research. The conversation discusses the importance of funding pediatric cancer research (which to this day continues to be underfunded), the impact of grassroots events, and Gretchen's dedication to fulfilling Liam's legacy. The organization has GRANTED OVER $21 MILLION to pediatric cancer research, and Gretchen emphasizes the need for continued support.

Against all odds of what should be possible, every cookie sold in a matter of days, and more than $420,000 was raised. In September 2008, Cookies for Kids’ Cancer launched as a year-round, national organization.
