Sound Living With Madi:
Solo Episode with Madi: What’s Working for Me Right Now (and What’s Messy)
About the episode
In this heartfelt solo episode, Madi gets personal. She opens up about her unexpected journey from cosmetology school to launching a successful wellness startup, balancing marriage, motherhood, and health.
With thoughtful questions from her producer, Madi shares the pivotal moments that shaped her—from chasing loopholes in high school to starting a salon on a college campus, building Soaak from the ground up, embracing her role as a co-founder and CMO, and what’s keeping her grounded today.
Expect real talk on marriage, entrepreneurship, health journeys (including losing 30 lbs on keto!), budgeting, motherhood, and why she believes you’ll never miss what’s meant for you.
This is for the dreamers, the doers, the founders, the moms, and the women learning to trust their timing.
