Anxiously Ambitious
Hi! I’m Netty, three-time founder, mom, and your host of Anxiously Ambitious. Welcome to the podcast where we embrace imperfection, honour our humanity, and prove you don’t have to have your sh*t together to build something amazing.
This is for my fellow deep feelers, sensitive souls, and anxious go-getters trying to grow without completely losing it. Together, we’ll dive into the messiness of ambition, how to balance big dreams with actual self-care (hint: it’s not easy, but it’s worth it) and how to thrive without sacrificing your sanity.
Every week, I bring you honest conversations with entrepreneurs, experts, and other beautifully flawed humans who’ve walked this path. We’ll share real stories, practical advice, and maybe even a few laughs, all to help you build a business and a life that feel like you.
If this sounds like your kind of space, hit follow and join me as we rewrite what success looks like: messy, meaningful, and entirely your own.

Hailey Roper: The Art of Becoming - Creativity, Loss & Growth
In this episode, I sit down with Hailey Roper, founder of Studio Kinship, to explore the intersection of grief, creativity, and intentional living. After the loss of her son Ivar, Hailey’s perspective on work and life profoundly shifted. She discovered that grief and beauty could coexist, that slowing down creates more impact, and that true alignment—whether in design or daily life—begins with honouring who we are.
We talk about:
✨ How loss reshapes us and why slowing down can bring clarity
🎨 The power of storytelling and symbolism in branding and life
👩👧👦 Navigating motherhood, business, and creativity with intention
⚡ Why alignment makes everything feel lighter—even when it’s hard
If you’ve ever felt the pull to create with more purpose or to move through life with more presence, I hope this episode resonates.
