    Why the Life You Built No Longer Fits with Laura Kusto  Have you ever felt like the life you've worked so hard to create suddenly doesn't fit anymore? In this episode, Lori sits down with Laura Kusto to discuss the profound shifts many women experience during perimenopause and menopause—and why these changes often go far beyond hot flashes and brain fog. Laura explains how hormonal changes impact the brain, why high-achieving women often feel a deep sense of misalignment during midlife, and how this season can serve as a powerful invitation to reevaluate what truly matters.

    Cycle Syncing for Moms: Work With Your Energy, Not Against It

    What if the reason productivity feels so hard… isn’t you? In this episode of The Secrets of Supermom Show, Lori sits down with cycle-syncing expert and feminine leadership coach Renae Fieck to talk about why traditional productivity advice doesn’t work for women—and what to do instead. Renae shares her powerful story of building a business during one of the hardest seasons of her life, after her husband’s brain tumor diagnosis, and how that journey led her to completely rethink how women work, rest, and show up. You’ll learn how your energy naturally shifts throughout the month, why some days feel effortless while others feel impossible, and how to start working with your body instead of constantly fighting against it. This conversation is equal parts eye-opening and freeing—especially if you’ve ever felt like you’re the problem when you can’t keep up. In this episode, we cover:  What “cycle syncing” actually means (in a practical, non-woo way)  Why women aren’t meant to operate on a 24-hour productivity cycle  The 4 phases of your cycle and how they impact your energy, mood, and focus  How to plan your work, workouts, and life around your natural rhythms  Why rest is a strategic productivity tool (not a luxury)  Simple ways to start paying attention to your energy today If you’re tired of pushing through, burning out, and wondering why things feel harder than they should… this episode will give you a whole new perspective.

    Powerfully Likeable: Stop Shrinking Your Ideas and Start Taking Up Space

    What does it really mean to "communicate while female"? Dr. Kate Mason — executive communications coach, world-champion debater, and author of Powerfully Likeable — joins Lori to unpack the invisible tightropes women walk at work every single day. Kate shares why likability is a form of power (not a liability), the difference between imposter syndrome and what she calls "imposing syndrome," and why women are statistically the best negotiators in the world — just not when negotiating for themselves. Plus: why the hard conversations you have at home make you better at work, how to advocate for a promotion without it feeling emotional, and the one small daily habit that changes everything. If you've ever toned yourself down to seem more "professional," or held back an idea because you didn't want to bother anyone — this episode is for you. Text us your feedback or questions!
