    S2.E36: Embracing Imperfection w. Jonas Koffler (author of Hustle, producer, + entrepreneur)

    Jonas Koffler is many things: an empath, storyteller, stroke survivor, entrepreneur, friend, husband, advocate, and then some. He, like all of us, also happens to be imperfect. While it took a life-changing event to prompt a change in his ways, it has also opened up the door for self care and a very fruitful life. This very insightful conversation touches on everything from momentum, to gratitude, to what happens when we embrace our flaws. Catch #EmbracingImperfection

    S2.E34: Seeking Truth w. Joanna Fang (Emmy Winner + Foley Artist)

    Joanna Fang is a sound designer and the first openly transgender person to win a Primetime Emmy. Mastering the art of Foley has allowed her to discover what it's like to walk in others' shoes and eventually led to her to upgrading her own kicks to the ones she was always intended to wear. We talk discovery, get a foley lesson (complete with creepy sounds), and learn that timing your truth can make a world of difference. Catch #SeekingTruth

    S2.E33: Sex Works w. Elle Kim (Sex Worker)

    Elle Kim (a.k.a. That Hoe Over Here) gives us insight into being a New York City sex worker and the many players involved in the industry. She is one of the "privileged" prostitutes that have chosen to enter the space, which has been receiving increasing press coverage. This subject has often been portrayed as glamorous, but Elle gets real and goes over the dangers, laws, and finances of entering the world of NYC prostitution in #sexworks.

    S2.E32: Current Events w. O + NO

    S2.E32: Current Events w. O + NO

    Your hosts chop it up over current events in a very special Chill and Ambitious episode. Sparked by September 11th, Colin Kaepernick, and the Dakota pipeline, we discuss protesting and patriotism. We try not to talk about the Election, but fail. And overall, O + NO rail on absolutist and zero sum mindsets while attempting to find some solutions in today's polarized social and political narratives. #ONOCurrentEvents

Perfect Niche & Spot-On Hosts

With Chill + Ambitious, Olivia + Noël (ONO) have tapped into the niche we ALL want to hear from - people who actually seem to make a living doing what they love. But not only have they tapped into this niche, they bring to it a tone that is somewhat addictive in style - blending their own both "chill" and "ambitious" personalities. The entire LIFE INNOVATOR Series is a huge win from episode to episode - even the soundtracks are on-point. You can tell that these ladies, too, love what THEY'RE doing in each episode - making it that much more enjoyable.

Additionally, they've created a pretty awesome community of seriously magical people. I encourage any listener to hit up a release party or find any way to get involved - through social media, or otherwise. O + NO certainly have hit the bullseye across the board with this one.

Making work fun!

I love O & No and the wonderful community they are creating! This dynamic duo explores the intellectual and emotional aspects of the pursuit of happiness while interviewing people who have found career success in unusual ways. We’re all trying to make our way in the world — and they prove you don’t have to run in the rat race like everyone else. You’ll hear from hustling nail polish trendsetters, PhDs, former broadway stars/meditation gurus, and so much more! Can’t wait for season 2!
