I created The Cinnamon Effect for the woman rebuilding herself — the one navigating change, searching for clarity, and learning how to move forward with intention.

I’m Kimberly Hand, and this podcast is where we talk about what you’re really going through — emotional healing, personal reinvention, motherhood, midlife shifts, wellness, and the quiet moments where everything starts to change. Because personal reinvention is available at any stage of life, and sometimes the smallest, most intentional choices create the biggest transformation.

The Cinnamon Effect is also my philosophy on life. Just like a small sprinkle of cinnamon can completely transform something simple, I believe small, intentional choices create meaningful change. When we focus on progress over perfection, clarity creates momentum — and those small shifts begin to shape a more vibrant, aligned life.

Here, I believe in progress over perfection. I believe clarity creates momentum. And I believe that when women understand what they’re navigating, they can move forward with more confidence, better health, and a deeper sense of purpose.

On The Cinnamon Effect, I share conversations with experts, thought leaders, and women who are walking their own healing journey — along with solo episodes where I share the tools, daily rituals, and wellness habits that have helped me and so many others live more intentionally. We talk about women’s health, holistic wellness, emotional healing, feminine energy, self-confidence, motherhood, relationships, and building a magnetic presence from the inside out.

This is a space for growth, for reflection, and for becoming the healthiest, most aligned version of yourself — one small, intentional step at a time.

If you’re in a season of change…

If you’re rediscovering who you are…

If you’re ready to live with more clarity, confidence, and intention…

You’re in the right place.

This is The Cinnamon Effect — for the woman rebuilding herself.

  • The Female Founder Who Built a Clean Ingredients Pet Wellness Brand Around the Therapy Dog She Loved Most with Sarah Goldberger
    Jun 30 2026

    Sometimes the most meaningful businesses are born from love, purpose, and a desire to make a difference.

    In this episode, we explore what happens when passion meets entrepreneurship and how one special dog inspired a brand that is changing the way people think about pet wellness.

    I sit down with Sarah Goldberger, the founder and CEO of Lord Jameson, an organic dog treat brand inspired by her beloved therapy dog, Jameson.

    We talk about how her love for Jameson led her into the pet space, how she built a brand rooted in clean ingredients, plant based recipes, and emotional connection, and why listening to pet parents can completely change the direction of a business.

    We also get into the real side of building something from the ground up, including the mistakes, pivots, and lessons that shaped Lord Jameson dog treats into what they are today. Sarah shares so much wisdom on trusting your intuition, starting small, and creating something with true brand purpose.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    - Why organic, allergen-friendly, clean ingredients pet treats matter more than many of us realize

    - What pet parents should know about dog treats, food sensitivities, and clean ingredients

    - Why plant based treats can be a thoughtful option for dogs with allergies or dietary restrictions

    - Why starting small can be one of the smartest things a founder can do

    - How customer feedback helped shape some of Lord Jameson’s most-loved products

    - Why failure can be one of the most important parts of building a successful brand

    - How Sarah thinks about purpose, intuition, and storytelling in business

    - Why pet loss deserves more compassion, conversation, and support

    - The wellness routines and habits that help Sarah stay grounded as a mom and founder

    Whether you're building a business, navigating a season of change, or simply looking for a reminder that meaningful ideas often start with love, this episode will leave you inspired to take the next step and trust where your journey leads.

  • The New Status Symbol: Why Sustainable Fashion Is What Real Luxury Looks Like Now
    Jun 23 2026

    How much of what surrounds you truly reflects who you are?

    In a world of fast fashion, endless choices, and constant consumption, Found PB, a women-owned business was built around a different idea: surrounding yourself with things that carry meaning, support artisan craftsmanship, and inspire a more intentional living.

    In this episode, I’m joined by sisters Andrea Pertnoy and Marisa Pepper, the founders of Found in Palm Beach, Florida.

    I’ve known Andrea and Marisa since we were little girls in dance class, so this conversation is extra special. We talk about how their very different paths, from fashion and retail to yoga, motherhood, handmade pottery, travel, and wellness, eventually came together in the most beautiful way through their business.

    Found is a reflection of how they live, what they value, and the kind of energy they want to bring into people’s homes and closets.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    - How Andrea and Marisa went from childhood dancers to building a business together as sisters

    - What inspired them to create Found Palm Beach and why the store is rooted in intention, sustainability, and storytelling

    - Why they believe the things we wear and live with should have meaning, not just look pretty

    - How they source handmade home decor from artisans around the world

    - What it really looks like to build relationships with makers, not just buy products from them

    - Why natural fabrics, slow fashion, and thoughtful consumption matter more than ever

    Whether you're curious about sustainable fashion, building a purpose-driven business, navigating life's unexpected transitions, or simply creating a home that feels more like you, I think you'll find something meaningful in this conversation.

    I hope it leaves you inspired to slow down, be more intentional, and think differently about the things, and experiences, you choose to bring into your life.

  • Coping with Grief After Losing a Loved One: How to Find Peace, Hope, and Healing After Loss with Marie Crews
    Jun 16 2026

    Grief has a way of changing everything.

    It can shift how we see time, relationships, faith, healing, and even ourselves. And while grief is one of the most universal human experiences, it is also one of the hardest things to talk about honestly.

    In this episode, I’m joined by Marie Crews, a certified grief guide and life coach, for a heartfelt conversation about grief, grief support, and healing after losing a loved one. Marie shares part of her story of losing both her mother and her son in a short period of time, and how those losses reshaped the way she sees life, love, spirituality, and purpose.

    Together, we talk about coping with grief, what life after loss can really look like, and why grief healing does not mean pretending the pain is gone. Marie also shares how journaling for healing became a powerful part of her own journey, and how she now uses that work to support other women, especially mothers walking through child loss and deep emotional healing.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    - Why grief is not something we simply “get over”

    - How losing a parent or losing a loved one can change the way we see life

    - Why mother grief and child loss carry layers that are hard to put into words

    - What coping with grief can look like when the pain still feels fresh

    - How spirituality can bring comfort, meaning, and hope in the midst of grief

    - Why journaling for healing can help you process emotions more honestly

    - How to help someone grieving without feeling like you need to have all the right answers

    - Why memories, signs, and connection can bring comfort after loss

    - How pain, peace, and purpose can coexist as part of grief healing

    This episode is for anyone who has experienced grief, loves someone who is grieving, or wants to better understand how to hold space for life’s hardest moments.

    My hope is that this conversation reminds you that even when life looks completely different than you imagined, you are not alone and healing is still possible.
