    145. You Don't Have to Be the Loudest Voice in the Room to Be Heard

    Sometimes growth does not just change your business. It changes your circle, your voice, and the way you let yourself be seen. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie sits down with Christi Pratte, founder of Ghost Girl Writing, for an honest conversation about entrepreneurship, identity shifts, aligned friendships, and what happens when your personal growth starts changing the relationships around you. Stefanie and Christi share how they connected organically through Instagram, bonded over similar growth seasons, and quickly recognized the power of finding people who truly understand the season you are in. Together, they talk about the grief and beauty of relationships shifting, why growth can mirror insecurity in others, and how to know when you are being called into more aligned rooms and connections. Christi also shares how writing became her voice, why you do not have to be the loudest person in the room to make an impact, and how powerful storytelling can open doors when you follow what feels natural and aligned. This episode is a reminder that your evolution may change what and who fits in your life, and that is not something you need to feel guilty about. In this episode, you’ll hear:  Why entrepreneurship often shifts your relationships and support system  How to navigate the grief of outgrowing old dynamics  Why aligned female friendships can feel so magnetic and healing  How mirroring and triggers show up when one person is growing  Why your voice does not have to look like anyone else’s  How writing, storytelling, and authentic expression can become powerful forms of visibility  Why divine nudges, community, and aligned action can open unexpected doors Connect with Christi: Website: https://ghostgirlwriting.com/ Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn: @christipratte Let us know what you think!

    144. Every Trigger is a Clue & A Data Point

    Your triggers are not random. They are mirrors showing you where there is still something to understand, heal, or reclaim. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie breaks down the connection between mirroring and triggers, and why certain people, comments, or situations can create a reaction that feels bigger than the moment itself. She explains how other people often reflect back our wounds, insecurities, old patterns, or the parts of ourselves we are actively trying to outgrow. Stefanie shares personal examples of how she has learned to pause, reflect, and ask deeper questions instead of immediately reacting from anger, defensiveness, or hurt. She also makes an important distinction between a trigger that is mirroring something within you, and a trigger that is actually your intuition recognizing disrespect, a crossed boundary, or behavior that needs to be addressed. This episode is a powerful reminder that being triggered does not mean you are failing. It is simply information, and when you learn how to use it, it can become a pathway to more self-awareness, emotional regulation, and growth. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  What it really means to be triggered  How mirroring shows up in everyday relationships  Why your body reacts before your logical mind catches up  How to tell the difference between an old wound and a true boundary violation  The questions Stefanie asks herself when she feels triggered  Why pausing before reacting can protect your peace and your relationships  How honest support systems can help you see situations more clearlyLet us know what you think!

    143. What Happens to Your Nervous System When You Take Therapy Off the Couch

    Walk and talk therapy takes the pressure out of healing by getting you out of the chair and back into your body. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie sits down with Chellsey Barnett, a licensed mental health counselor and founder of Resilient Mind Counseling & Coaching, to talk all about walk and talk therapy and why it can be such a powerful option for anxious, high-achieving, people-pleasing perfectionists. Chellsey explains how walking side by side in nature can help therapy feel less formal, less intimidating, and more natural, especially for clients who feel uncomfortable sitting face to face in a traditional office setting. Together, Stefanie and Chellsey also talk about the importance of finding a therapist you truly vibe with, normalizing therapy, setting boundaries, and why mental health care works best when it looks at the whole person, not just a diagnosis. This episode is a reminder that therapy does not have to look one specific way. The right support should feel safe, aligned, and personalized to you. In this episode, you’ll hear:  What walk and talk therapy is and who it may be best for  Why walking side by side can help clients open up more naturally  How Chellsey handles privacy and confidentiality during outdoor sessions  Why it is okay to “shop around” for the right therapist fit  How anxiety can hide behind perfectionism, overthinking, and high achievement  Why holistic care matters, including hormones, vitamin levels, movement, and nervous system support  The value of therapy that feels direct, real, supportive, and human Connect with Chellsey: Website: https://resilientmindcc.com/ Book a consultation: https://resilientmindcc.janeapp.com/ Psychology Today profile: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/chellsey-barnett-saint-petersburg-fl/911057 Let us know what you think!

    142. Your Circle is Your Ceiling

    Your circle is not a luxury. It is one of the biggest predictors of how far you will grow. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie records from Scottsdale after the Powerhouse Women Conference and shares a powerful reminder about the importance of being intentional with the rooms you put yourself in. She explains how your circle shapes your beliefs, habits, energy, mindset, vision, and even the opportunities that become available to you. Stefanie breaks down the two types of rooms every growth-minded woman needs: rooms with like-minded people who help you feel seen, supported, and understood, and rooms with next-level expanders who show you what is possible and stretch your vision for who you are becoming. She shares examples from her own life, including Powerhouse Women, Lori and Chris Harder’s mastermind, and Sister Circle, and how each room has created personal, professional, and financial ROI. This episode is a reminder that you are not meant to grow alone. The people around you can either keep you where you are or help you rise into the next version of yourself. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  Why your circle shapes your beliefs, habits, and ceiling  The difference between like-minded rooms and next-level rooms  Why you need both support and expansion  How Powerhouse Women, masterminds, and Sister Circle have impacted Stefanie’s growth  The personal, professional, financial, and energetic ROI of intentional community  Why investing in the right rooms can change your trajectory over time Challenge: Look at your current circle. Are you surrounded by people at your level, above your level, or both? Ask yourself what room you need to invest in next to support the growth you want. Let us know what you think!

    141. If You Are Not Tired of Talking About Your Business - Then You Aren't Doing It Right

    Marketing is not a burden. It is your opportunity to make sure the right people know how you can help them. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie sits down with Sarah Taylor, owner of Sarah Taylor Marketing, for a practical and mindset-shifting conversation about marketing, visibility, entrepreneurship, and learning to show up for your business with more confidence. Sarah shares her journey from growing up in an entrepreneurial family, to owning a flower shop for nearly 20 years, to pivoting into marketing coaching after feeling the nudge that it was time for something new. Together, Stefanie and Sarah unpack why so many small business owners make marketing harder than it needs to be, and how the stories you tell yourself about visibility can keep you stuck. Sarah breaks down marketing in a simple, grounded way: knowing your ideal customer, understanding how you help them, and clearly showing how their life changes because of your product or service. They also talk about delegation, investing in support, building your business brain, getting comfortable being the face of your brand, and why repeated messaging matters more than you think. This episode is a reminder that marketing is a non-negotiable as a business owner, but it can also become fun, energizing, and deeply aligned. In this episode, you’ll hear:  Why marketing does not have to feel overwhelming  How to stop trying to speak to everyone and focus on your ideal customer  Why visibility brings up mindset blocks for so many entrepreneurs  The importance of showing your face and letting people connect with the human behind the business  How simple content, FAQs, behind-the-scenes videos, and process posts can become powerful marketing  Why investing in coaching, support, and community can move the needle faster  Sarah’s perspective on pivoting, leadership, legacy, and following the nudge before it becomes a “rhino” Connect with Sarah: Website: https://sarahtaylormarketing.com/ Instagram: @sarahtaylormarketing Facebook: Sarah Taylor Marketing Let us know what you think!

    140. The Upgrade Nobody Saw Coming Home With Me

    The transformation does not end when you leave the room. It either gets protected, or it gets pulled back into your old environment. In this microdose episode, Stefanie reflects on coming home from her third year at the Powerhouse Women Conference and the disorientation that can happen after a life-changing event. She shares what it feels like to return to normal life as an upgraded version of yourself when the people around you did not witness the conversations, energy, or inner shifts that changed you. Stefanie explains why it can feel lonely to come home after an expansive experience, and why the community you intentionally build afterward determines whether the momentum continues or fades. She talks about being around expanders like Natalie Ellis, Lori Harder, Lindsay Marie, and other women who model what is possible, and how those rooms give you a giant permission slip to become more visible, bold, authentic, and soul-aligned. This episode is a reminder that your circle matters. The people you consistently surround yourself with can either pull you forward or drag you backward, so protecting your energy and your access is part of protecting the upgrade. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  What it feels like to come home after a transformational event  Why the “upgrade” can feel lonely when others did not witness it  How expanders help you step into a bolder version of yourself  Why your external reality may need time to catch up with your internal shift  How intentional community helps sustain momentum  Why protecting who gets access to you protects the transformation Challenge: Think about an event, room, or experience that changed you. What made it hard to hold onto that upgrade afterward? Then ask yourself who in your life helps you protect that version of yourself, and who pulls you back. Let us know what you think!

    139. You Are The Main Character: Start Acting Like It

    You are allowed to shine, take up space, and act like the main character of your own life. In this solo episode, Stefanie records from Scottsdale after attending the Powerhouse Women Conference and shares the giant permission slip she wants every woman to give herself: stop playing small. She talks about birthday month energy, main character energy, and why celebrating yourself should not be reserved for one day, one month, or one “acceptable” reason. Stefanie unpacks the conditioning women receive around humility, likability, aging, pride, and not being “too much,” and how that programming keeps women quiet, apologetic, and disconnected from their own joy. She also explains why your confidence may trigger others, why that is not your responsibility to fix, and what can shift when you stop dimming your light. This episode is a reminder that you are the protagonist of your life, and you are allowed to celebrate yourself out loud. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  Why women are conditioned to stay small and not celebrate themselves  How birthday month energy became a lesson in year-round self-celebration  What “main character energy” really means  Why your shine may trigger other people’s insecurities  How confidence, authenticity, and visibility create more aligned business and relationships  Simple ways to start taking up more space now Challenge: Do one thing this week as the main character of your life. Wear the outfit, post the photo, celebrate the win, speak up, or make one decision based on what you truly want. Let us know what you think! Support the show Join my Email List! Buy Me a Drink!

    138. Pivoting Isn't Failing — It's Called Alignment

    Pivoting is not a sign that you failed. It is a sign that you are listening to the version of you that exists now. In this microdose episode of Next Level You, Stefanie shares a permission slip every business owner needs to hear: your business is allowed to evolve as you do. She explains why staying committed to an offer, niche, brand, price point, or direction that no longer lights you up is not loyalty, it is misalignment. Stefanie opens up about the pivots she has made in her own businesses, including rebranding the podcast, coming out of the spiritual closet in her private practice, integrating hypnotherapy, Reiki, and Theta Healing, and feeling called to shift her coaching work from one-on-one into a more community-based offer. Each pivot came from listening to her intuition and trusting what felt aligned. This episode is a reminder that a business that does not evolve can become stagnant, and you do not have to defend your growth to anyone. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  Why pivoting does not mean you failed  How your business naturally evolves as you grow  Signs an offer, niche, or direction no longer feels aligned  Stefanie’s own business pivots and what prompted them  Why raising your prices can be part of honoring your worth  How to trust the intuitive nudge that it is time for a change Challenge: Ask yourself: Is there a pivot I have been avoiding? Then give yourself permission to make one aligned change. Let us know what you think! Support the show Join my Email List! Buy Me a Drink!
