    E #508: Financial Freedom Isn’t a Vibe: Micro Money Habits That Actually Build Wealth with Lorna Poole

    Financial freedom isn’t built on vibes. It’s built on behaviour. In this episode, Kehla sits down with wealth mentor Lorna Poole to unpack what actually creates financial independence for female entrepreneurs — especially when money feels messy. Most high-achieving women aren’t struggling because they lack intelligence or strategy. They’re stuck in avoidance, hyper-independence, or waiting to feel “safe” before changing their money habits. This conversation cuts through the noise and gets grounded in what truly shifts financial outcomes. Lorna shares how radical self-responsibility, micro-behavioral changes, and long-game thinking build real wealth — not emotional highs or manifestation aesthetics. Together, they explore: – Why paying yourself first matters (even if it’s $5) – How your nervous system reacts when you start keeping money – The emotional patterns women carry into their financial decisions – The difference between revenue and true wealth – Why neutrality with money is power This episode is a candid look at debt, independence, partnership, and the subtle ways feelings can hijack financial leadership. Financial freedom isn’t about the number. It’s about who you become in the process of building it.

    E #507: What If Your Offer Isn’t the Problem? with Lori Young

    In this episode of Built for the Edge, Kehla is joined by Lori, an offer strategist and holistic business coach, for a grounded and unfiltered conversation about one of the most quietly destabilizing moments in business: when an offer stops selling — or never quite takes off. Rather than rushing to fixes, frameworks, or surface-level tweaks, this conversation slows the moment down and asks a more uncomfortable question: what if the issue isn’t the offer at all? Together, Kehla and Lori explore the tension between specificity and safety, why many entrepreneurs stay deliberately vague without realizing it, and how committing to a clear lane often triggers identity friction before it creates momentum. Lori shares her own lived experience of stepping out of a generalist identity and claiming her work as an offer strategist — including what it’s like to be ahead of the market and misunderstood before you’re validated. The conversation also touches the less-talked-about reality of dry seasons in business: moments where strategy has been applied, alignment feels intact, and effort isn’t the missing ingredient — yet results haven’t caught up. Human Design, Gene Keys, and timing weave through the discussion, not as answers, but as lenses for self-regulation, restraint, and discernment. As the episode moves toward the future, Kehla and Lori reflect on what’s shifting in how offers are built and sold moving into 2026 — the quiet unraveling of guru culture, the rise of buyer discernment, and the growing demand for intimacy, precision, and guidance over performance and hype. AI enters the conversation not as a shortcut, but as a pressure point: something that amplifies what’s already true about an offer rather than fixing what’s misaligned. This episode isn’t here to tell you what to change. It’s here to help you locate yourself — inside your offer, your timing, and the season you’re actually in. Resources and Lori’s AI-powered offer audit are linked in the show notes for those ready to take the next step.

    E #506: You’re Not Your Job Title: Rebuilding Confidence and Your Brand After Corporate with Betsy Hamm

    What happens when the title disappears, the paycheck stops, and the structure that once held your confidence together is suddenly gone? In this episode, Kehla G is joined by Betsy Hamm for a candid conversation about what it actually takes to leave corporate leadership and rebuild from the inside out. Not just a business. Not just a brand. But identity, confidence, and decision-making when there’s no external authority left to lean on. The conversation opens in the tension so many women quietly carry — realizing how much of their certainty, worth, and clarity was propped up by titles, performance reviews, and institutional validation. From there, Kehla and Betsy explore the often-missed deconditioning phase of entrepreneurship: the unraveling that happens when experience is no longer backed by a logo, and confidence must be self-generated rather than inherited. Rather than offering formulas or surface-level branding advice, this episode circles the deeper question underneath it all: what are you actually building your business on? Performance? Platforms? External proof? Or an internal orientation that doesn’t collapse when momentum dips? Betsy introduces her PIE framework — performance, image, and exposure — not as a checklist to complete, but as a mirror to reveal where leadership, brand, and confidence are quietly misaligned. The conversation weaves through focus, restraint, circles versus networks, and why entrepreneurial environments often unlock a very different kind of support than corporate ones ever did. This episode doesn’t tell you how to “fix” your brand. It invites you to notice what you’ve been standing on — and what happens when you choose to rebuild from something that can’t be taken away.

    E #505: Why Motivation Works — Why It Never Lasts (And What to Do Instead)

    What happens when motivation works… but never lasts? In this episode, Kehla unpacks a pattern that runs quietly through the personal development and coaching industry — one that keeps people cycling through insight, activation, purpose, and burnout without ever actually relocating where decisions are being made from. After listening to a conversation between two wildly successful entrepreneurs grappling with apathy, fulfillment, and “what’s next,” Kehla noticed something familiar: the solution wasn’t wrong — it was symptomatic. Bigger missions. New purpose. Identity reframes. Emotional activation. They create movement — but they don’t change what’s governing that movement. This episode explores the difference between soothing experience and changing position. You’ll hear why: Feelings, motivation, identity, and purpose are effects, not causes Awareness alone doesn’t equal authority Most growth work resolves reality from inside its symptoms Emotional states quietly end up governing life and business decisions And why real relief doesn’t come from feeling better — it comes from standing somewhere else Kehla introduces the distinction between sovereignty and governance, the difference between being in a feeling versus seeing it, and why coherence isn’t something you create — it’s what’s left when nothing false is running the show. This isn’t an episode about fixing yourself, upgrading your mindset, or finding a bigger why. It’s about locating the place from which decisions are actually being made — and what changes when that place shifts. If this conversation resonates, Your Vantage Point is where this work continues — not as a framework to apply, but as a place to return to when you notice yourself slipping back into feeling-led decision making.

    E #504: Attention Isn’t Influence: The Missing Layer Between Visibility and Clients with Maggie Olson

    In this episode, Kehla sits down with Maggie Olson, strategic business advisor and mentor to high-achieving women entrepreneurs, to unpack a quiet but critical distinction most businesses miss: attention is not influence. They explore why visibility, engagement, and growing an audience often fail to translate into clients—and how the real work happens in the middle layer most people avoid. Maggie shares how simplifying her offers, sharpening her communication, and prioritizing intentional conversations reshaped her growth as a 1/4 Sacral Manifesting Generator, especially after years of scattered momentum and too many parallel paths. This conversation challenges the idea that more content, more leads, or more effort creates traction. Instead, it examines the role of quality conversations, direct but grounded communication, and community as the long-term infrastructure that turns “not yet” into trust. Human Design is woven in not as an explanation for why something can’t work, but as a lens for discernment, focus, and cleaner decision-making. This episode is for entrepreneurs who are visible but under-converted, busy but unsatisfied with their results, and sensing that the problem isn’t effort—it’s orientation.

    E #503: What Seven Years in Business Actually Teaches You

    In this special seven-year anniversary episode of Built for the Edge, Kehla G reflects on what actually changes when you stay in business long enough to mature — not just in strategy, but in nervous system capacity, decision-making, identity, and leadership. This is not a highlight reel or a list of “mistakes to avoid.” It’s a grounded, lived conversation about the realities of entrepreneurship that don’t get talked about enough: the chicken-and-egg nature of investing and income, why waiting to feel ready keeps people stuck, how productivity can become a sophisticated form of avoidance, and what it really means to regulate your nervous system while scaling a business. Kehla shares how staying in her own lane — reducing external input, unsubscribing from borrowed frameworks, and reclaiming original thinking — sharpened her clarity and conviction. She explores the loneliness of long-term leadership, the grief of shedding outdated identities, and why sustainability doesn’t come from reaching a finish line, but from learning how to stay in contact with the process through every season of growth. This episode also marks a threshold. Kehla names what she is no longer available for after seven years in business, the depth and pacing she is committed to protecting moving forward, and why orientation — not urgency — has become the foundation of how she builds, sells, and leads. If you’re an entrepreneur navigating uncertainty, burnout, rebuilding, or the quiet recalibration that comes with maturity, this episode offers perspective you can’t shortcut — only earn. 👉 Your Business Reoriented – Free Audio Series A short orientation for entrepreneurs who feel off-track, overwhelmed, or caught in reaction mode — designed to help you locate yourself before you make your next move. 👉 Gene Keys Compass Calendar (V1 closes January 21st) An annual orientation tool designed to help you work with the Gene Keys transits through a grounded, business-relevant lens — so you can discern what’s yours to engage and what to release. 👉 Kehla G’s Website Explore Kehla’s work, offers, and long-term containers. 👉 Follow Kehla on Instagram Behind-the-scenes reflections, leadership conversations, and direct connection.

    E #502: Why What Worked in 2023 Won’t Work in 2026 — with Deb Boulanger

    In this episode of Built for the Edge, Kehla sits down with Deb Boulanger, founder of Life After Corporate, to explore why so many business strategies that once worked are quietly failing as entrepreneurs move toward 2026. Drawing from decades of leadership and advisory experience, Deb names a growing disconnect between traditional growth models and the reality of today’s market — one shaped by accelerating AI adoption, a saturated coaching industry, and a deep erosion of trust. Together, they examine what happens when speed outpaces discernment, visibility replaces depth, and expansion becomes fragmented rather than directional. The conversation moves through questions many entrepreneurs are avoiding: Why top-down revenue strategies are losing traction. Why being everywhere no longer builds momentum. Why relationships, capacity, and precision are becoming pressure points rather than “nice to haves.” Rather than offering a playbook, this episode lingers in the tension of the moment — between old strategies that no longer convert and emerging approaches that haven’t fully taken shape yet. Deb shares how her own business has shifted in response to these changes, and why the next era will demand a different relationship with growth, technology, and leadership. This is not a conversation about doing more. It’s about recognizing what no longer fits — and being willing to question the structures that once felt reliable. Books, resources, and Deb’s revenue modeling gift are linked in the show notes for listeners who want to explore the ideas further.

    E #501: You Don’t Have a Funnel Problem — You Have an Orientation Problem

    In this episode of Built for the Edge, Kehla G names a quiet tension many entrepreneurs are feeling but struggling to articulate. They’re visible. They have leads. They’ve built funnels, offers, systems, and pathways that look “right” on paper — yet conversion feels heavier than it should. Momentum stalls. Decisions slow. And passive strategies that once worked now require constant effort to sustain. Rather than diagnosing this as a messaging or positioning issue, Kehla points to something far less discussed: orientation. This episode explores what happens when businesses are built to move people toward outcomes without accounting for how people are actually arriving — emotionally, energetically, and neurologically. It challenges common assumptions about “meeting people where they’re at,” questions the confusion between attention and readiness, and examines why pressure-based funnels no longer land in a more discerning market. Through a vivid highway-under-construction metaphor, Kehla invites listeners to consider how the quality of movement through their business — not just the destination — may be shaping client behavior, hesitation, and decision-making. This is not an episode about fixing funnels or optimizing copy. It’s an invitation to notice what becomes visible when those explanations stop working. The conversation closes at the threshold, opening into a deeper inquiry around timing, inner authority, and what it takes to build a business that can actually hold the level of discernment present now.
