She Leads: A Celebration of Women Making History

The AHA! Moment Live!

The core essence of The AHA! Moment is to provide you with the tools you need to create for and be the future, as a success on your own terms. This newsletter and podcast is future-driven, and in order to create for tomorrow, we need to build a foundation of how we can make history today.

Not all history is made in the past. Some of it is being written right now, in real time, by the women who refuse to wait for permission or ‘the right time’ to go after what they want. The women who don’t just break barriers but completely rewrite the rules.

That’s exactly what happened at my latest event, She Leads: A Celebration of Women Making History, and I had the privilege of hosting The AHA! Moment Podcast Live! with a powerhouse panel of entrepreneurs who are doing just that.

Hosting this event and panel discussion and bringing a live show for The AHA! Moment for the very first time into fruition meant so much to me, and I wanted to share this vision brought to life with you too!

We talked about the reality of building something from nothing, what it means to truly lead, and how to keep moving forward when every challenge makes you want to turn back. These women didn’t just give advice—they gave the raw, unfiltered truth about rejection, resilience, and what it actually takes to succeed.

Meet the Women Who Are Changing the Game:

🥊 Irina Kapetanakis – Owner, Rumble Boxing: From spending most of her career in finance and marketing to then launching one of the most recognized fitness brands, Irina shares what it takes to build a brand that punches above its weight.
🎁 Jennifer O’Hare – Founder, Belle Box Gifting Co: Creating a business that thrives on thoughtful connection, Jennifer talks about how she scaled a niche idea into a full-fledged company.
✨Ava King – Founder, Fallon & Ava: The fashion entrepreneur who proves that luxury and business-savvy can go hand in hand, Ava dives into the evolution of her brand and what it takes to build confidence through navigating challenges.

🎀 Michelle Wax — Founder, The City Retreat & Boston Babes Social Club: Founder of multiple successful ventures, Michelle shares her insights on community-building and creating experiences that truly impact people’s lives.

We covered the real struggles of entrepreneurship—the moments when things aren’t glamorous, when doubt creeps in, when the idea of quitting feels more realistic than pushing forward. And we talked about the mindset shifts, the big risks, and the game-changing moments that turned their ideas into reality.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, if you’ve ever wondered how people actually make it, if you’ve ever needed that extra push to take the leap—this episode is for you.
