Valentine’s Day looked very different this year. While most people were out celebrating, LaLa was working an event for her Cannoli Cart business and Shawna was completely exhausted from life, health, and everything in between. From there, the girls headed to the What She Said event in Hoboken, NJ, where they spent the entire day interviewing inspiring founders, entrepreneurs, creatives, and community leaders, both women and men, whose perspective added a powerful dynamic to the conversation.In this episode, they recap the energy of the room, the power of community, and what it really takes to show up fully while navigating health challenges and disabilities. Sometimes exhaustion is proof you’re building something bigger than yourself.
Shawna shares her now-infamous St. Pierre waffle moment… Yes, the entire pack! Plus her new Bougie Bottle that reminds her of her grandmother and why small comforts can mean everything for mental health and resilience. Then they sit down with Cindy Mutti, founder of Just Because Love Does, to talk about adaptive hospital clothing and medical-friendly pajamas designed with built-in access for heart monitors, IV ports, drains, and medical lines. Her mission is restoring dignity, comfort, and normalcy to patients navigating chronic illness, medical trauma, and hospital recovery.
This episode explores women’s empowerment, entrepreneurship, disability advocacy, adaptive fashion, hospital recovery, resilience, and what real support actually looks like beyond the spotlight.
