Bianca D’Alessio is one of New York’s top real estate leaders, a TV personality from Selling the Hamptons, and the author of Mastering Intentions: 10 Practices to Amplify Your Power and Lead with Lasting Impact.
In this episode, we talk about why purpose and intention matter more than goal-chasing, how to quiet the “brain bully” that sabotages success, and how to play the long game in leadership and life.
When success turns hollow, how do you find your way back to purpose? Christine talks with lawyer-turned-novelist Anusia Gillespie about burnout, healing, and her debut novel Soul Toll, which blends ambition with spiritual awakening.

When I asked Letitia Blanker how she was doing, she answered with two words: “I am.”
In this conversation, Letitia opens up about a season when everything seemed to land at once: her father’s sudden illness, the end of a 20-year relationship, selling her home, losing her job—and then a breast cancer diagnosis just one month later.

We also talk about:
Why she always wears purple, and what it means to her
Discovering she’s highly gifted at 58, and how that...

Practical ways to create space for imagination, even in busy lives
Why life itself is an “active sport” and you...
