Things I Know for Sure at 55
Jan 08, 2026This week on Classy & Sassy, I’m celebrating my 55th birthday by reflecting on the things I know for sure in this season of life.
In this birthday special, I talk honestly about what age has actually taught me - from choosing peace over being liked, to letting go of the myth that one day you magically stop caring what people think. We unpack what it really means to care less, trust yourself more, and grow without reinventing who you are.
I also share how reading has become a form of gentle growth for me...
Duration: 00:08:49I’m Not Reinventing Myself This Year - I Already Started
Jan 01, 2026In this first episode of the new year, I’m choosing calm over chaos.
I’m not reinventing myself, starting from scratch, or scrambling to keep up with “new year, new me” energy. Instead, I’m sharing why starting early, thinking long-term, and moving with clarity has completely changed how I’m entering this season.
We talk about letting go of extreme resets, why urgency is often fake, and how building quietly without pressure or performative goal-setting creates more sustainable growth. This episode is for anyone who wants to move forward with intention, protect their energy, and...
Duration: 00:05:40I Didn’t Wait for January: What I’m Leaving & What I’m Carrying Forward
Dec 23, 2025In this episode of Classy & Sassy, I’m closing the year differently.
Instead of waiting for January to figure things out, I’m sharing how getting clear before the year ended changed my stress level, my energy, and the way I’m entering the next season. We’re talking about what I’m leaving behind, what I’m intentionally carrying forward, and why clarity doesn’t need a clean calendar to exist.
This conversation is about ending the year on purpose; without panic, pressure, or “new year, new me” nonsense. If you’re tired of unrealistic...
Duration: 00:06:45The Year Didn’t Go as Planned… and That’s Okay
Dec 18, 2025This year didn’t go as planned… and that’s okay.
In this soft wrap-up episode of Classy & Sassy, I’m reflecting on the quiet wins, the stalled goals, and the lessons that didn’t come with applause. We’re talking about releasing unrealistic timelines, redefining success, and carrying a little less pressure into the new year.
This episode is for anyone who showed up imperfectly, learned the hard way, and is choosing grace over grind as the year comes to a close. Soft, honest, and just a little sassy - because growth doesn’t alwa...
Duration: 00:06:29Owning Manhattan, Owning Your Power
Dec 11, 2025Owning Manhattan is back and this season gave us more than luxury listings and real estate drama. It delivered a full masterclass in confidence, branding, negotiation, and the power plays that every ambitious woman can learn from.
In this episode of Classy & Sassy, we’re talking commanding rooms without apology, building a magnetic brand, charging what you’re worth, strengthening your network, and handling pressure like the leader you are becoming.
Whether you’re a businesswoman, a creator, a real estate girlie, or just here for the vibes, this is your reminder that watchi...
Duration: 00:11:57Building a Brand When You’re Multi-Passionate (and Refuse to Niche Down)

Healing the Version of You That Settled for Less
Nov 26, 2025Every woman has a version of herself who accepted crumbs, ignored red flags, stayed too long, dimmed her shine, or simply didn’t know she deserved more. Healing her isn’t about shame it’s about compassion, closure, and growth.
In this conversation, Erica unpacks:
✨ How to identify the version of you that settled
✨ Why she showed up in the first place
✨ How to honor without holding onto old patterns
✨ The power of self-forgiveness and emotional maturity
✨ Rebuilding identity after a glow-up
✨ Creating boundaries and standards that reflect your current self
