The She Lives Intentionally® Podcast is for women who are done performing and done living on autopilot.
Hosted by Marney Andes, each episode explores what it actually looks like to live intentionally as a daily choice. Marney brings the perspective of an executive coach, former college athlete, and a woman who has outgrown versions of her life that once made sense and chose to live intentionally instead.
Through candid stories, unfiltered conversations, and personal reflections, the podcast gets into the real decisions women are making as they evolve.
This is a space for women who have outgrown their circles, their roles, or the version of life that once fit and are now deciding what comes next.
You will hear different perspectives and different paths, with full permission to take what resonates and leave the rest.
This podcast is not here to tell you who to be. It is here to give you language, clarity, and companionship as you choose for yourself.
Making Sense of Your Birth Chart with Leah Vanderveldt
Astrology can be weirdly complicated for something that’s supposed to help you understand yourself.
In this episode, I talk with Leah Vanderveldt about the basics of birth charts, what the houses mean, why empty houses are not the end of the world, and how astrology can actually be useful instead of making you feel behind on your own cosmic homework.
You can find Leah at LeahVanderveldt.com, and on Substack at Cosmic Style.

Why You Should Still Be Making Things with Vanessa Deets
In this episode, Marney sits down with Vanessa Deets, founder of A Branch & Cord, to talk about why creativity still belongs in your life.
Vanessa shares how she built her macrame business, how her work expanded into DIY kits, and what it looks like to stay connected to creating while running a business.
They explore what happens when people take the time to make something with their hands, why that experience feels different, and how creativity can find its way back into everyday life.
This conversation is a reminder that creating isn’t reserved for a certain type of person—and it doesn’t have to lead to anything to matter.

Seeing Yourself in AI with Lori Kirkland
In this episode, Marney sits down with Lori Kirkland to explore what it really looks like to use AI without losing yourself, especially when you’re already carrying more than anyone can see.
Lori, a strategist, AI coach, and co-founder of DeepHumanX, shares how her work with women has shifted away from speed and productivity toward clarity, relief, and intentional use of new tools. Together, they talk honestly about mental overload, the invisible labor women hold, and why so many of us try to optimize our lives before actually slowing down long enough to see what’s driving our patterns.
This conversation reframes AI not as another thing to keep up with, but as a support and one that can help offload mental noise, interrupt autopilot, and create space to think more clearly. Rooted in curiosity and play rather than pressure, the episode invites listeners to question what they’re carrying, what they’re ready to do differently, and how learning doesn’t have to feel heavy to be real.
If you’re curious about AI but already stretched thin, this episode will meet you right where you are and offer a different way forward.

Honoring Yourself with Melissa Payne
In this episode, Marney and Melissa Payne explore what it really means to honor yourself — not just when there's a big, shiny win, but in the quiet, unseen work that no one else knows about.
Melissa, a She Lives Intentionally™ member and bestselling author whose novels explore redemption, truth, and second chances, shares honestly about a hard creative year, what it takes to keep showing up when confidence is shaky, and why messy, imperfect effort still deserves to be named and celebrated. Together they talk about the tension between humility and visibility, the pressure to hit every "deadline" in life, and how stories — both fictional and our own — help us feel seen instead of alone.
Rooted in the She Lives Intentionally™ monthly theme of Honoring Yourself, this episode invites you to slow down long enough to notice the version of you who keeps going, to name the courage that's been hiding inside the process, and to let community witness your story instead of waiting until everything looks perfect on the outside.

Letting Go with Lisa Woods
In this episode, Marney and Lisa Woods unpack what letting go really means — not only as an act of release, but as an ongoing practice of peace, forgiveness, and trust.
Lisa, a spiritual life coach who blends intellectual strategy and spiritual wisdom, shares how reconnecting with nature and meditation can open us to our inner knowing and why true letting go often means surrendering the need to control what we can't. Together, they explore how release creates space for what's next, how community lightens the process, and how self-forgiveness invites deeper healing.
They talk about the power of boundaries, the quiet clarity that comes from stillness, and the courage it takes to loosen your grip on the stories and beliefs that no longer serve you. This conversation invites reflection, release, and a return to yourself — the version of you that's been waiting underneath it all.

Finding Clarity in Conflict with Rachel Lucas
In this episode, Marney and Rachel Lucas get real about what happens when you stop avoiding conflict and start telling the truth — to yourself first. Rachel, a coach who turns workplace conflict into trust-building opportunities, shares why "keeping the peace" is so costly and how even small reckonings can rebuild safety, respect, and connection.
They explore the real work of honesty — from noticing what you've been tolerating to finding your middle ground between silence and explosion — and why trust isn't built in the moment, but in the aftermath. This conversation invites a bold look at the weight of avoidance, the freedom in naming it, and the quiet power of doing something about it.

Owning Your Truth with Erica Denniston
In this episode, Marney and Erica Denniston explore what it really means to own your truth at work and in life—especially when speaking up feels risky.
They dig into the Working Genius framework (W-I-D-G-E-T) to unpack where joy and energy show up in the six stages of work, how to release the guilt and shame around the parts that drain you, and why asking for help can be a gift to someone else's genius. Together they talk about using shared language to be both honest and tactful, the power of community to say the hard thing out loud, and the personal work of accepting the strengths others consistently reflect back to you.
Rooted in the She Lives Intentionally™ monthly theme of The Reckoning, this episode challenges the idea that truth-telling is optional. It invites a deeper look at telling the truth to yourself first, naming what gives you energy, and taking the next courageous step with clarity.
