Episode description as stored
Stephanie Loewenstern’s story is one of duality — building a successful career while also stepping into one of the most unexpected and transformative chapters of her life: becoming a single mother.
RAHEL was born from that experience — a space designed to provide resources, community, and real support for women facing a version of motherhood that isn’t often talked about.
In this conversation, Anna and Stephanie explore what it means to build while becoming, to take action before you feel ready, and to redefine strength on your own terms.
👠 Key Moments:
Why “waiting until you’re ready” is often the thing holding you back
The reality of becoming a single mother — and the parts no one talks about
Building RAHEL — a platform created from lived experience and real need
The hidden emotional, financial, and logistical challenges of starting over
Balancing ambition, motherhood, and identity in a new chapter of life
From recruiting to community-building — creating impact in different ways
The importance of support systems, and why community is everything
Learning to ask for help — and why it’s harder than it sounds
How life transitions reshape confidence, priorities, and personal style
Showing up in business and life when everything feels uncertain
This episode is honest, grounded, and deeply human — a reminder that strength doesn’t always look like having it all together.
Sometimes, it looks like taking the next step anyway.
🎧 Listen now and be reminded: you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin — and you don’t have to go through it alone.
Adding a chic twist to each episode, the 'I Want Her Shoes Podcast' is recorded in Anna’s stunning personal closet, strategically located near the vibrant Miami Design District. This unique setting not only provides a visually captivating backdrop but also embodies the spirit of fashion and innovation that the area is known for.
