    The Identity Makeover Every Woman Needs Before She Can Soar with Dr. Angela Aja

    What if the reason you feel stuck is because you are actually in the middle of becoming? In this week’s episode of the Finally Seen™ podcast, we’re joined by leadership coach, bestselling author, and identity transformation expert Dr. Angela Aja for a conversation that will challenge how you see struggle, success, and self-reinvention. Dr. Angela shares her powerful journey from ministry leadership to financial collapse and how losing everything forced her to finally meet herself. From that transformation, she developed her now-renowned framework, The Five Stages of the Rise of a Woman, inspired by the journey from caterpillar to butterfly. We talk about why so many women skip the cocoon, how identity is formed and distorted, and what it actually takes to rise into purpose without burning out or playing small. This conversation is for the woman who knows she was made for more but feels caught between who she was and who she is becoming. In this episode, we cover: Why feeling stuck often means you are in a necessary season of transformationThe five stages of the Rise of a Woman and how to identify where you areWhy skipping the cocoon leads to burnout, striving, and imposter syndromeHow to stop telling your story from the caterpillar and start telling it from the butterflyThe difference between flying harder and learning how to soarWhy your story is not about you, and why someone is waiting to hear it If you have ever wondered whether your breakdown is actually your becoming, this episode will meet you right where you are.

Bio: Ian Gatzke is the founder of Implement AI and the creator of The Transformation Engine™ powered by Companion GPTs. His journey began with a personal experiment: instead of just consuming self-help books like Sahil Bloom's The Five Types of Wealth, he built a custom Companion GPT to guide him, step-by-step, through the actual exercises. This experience, finally doing the work instead of just reading about it, yielded profound personal insights and highlighted a universal problem: the client execution gap (the space between learning and doing). Today, Ian and his team build AI-powered systems for high-ticket coaches to solve this precise problem. The flagship offer, The Transformation Engine™, helps coaches deliver transformations more consistently, increase retention, and scale their impact without adding more calls, content, or chaos. Ian believes that most coaches don't have a marketing problem; they have an implementation problem. By solving the implementation challenge, coaches unlock compounded growth: better client results, a stronger reputation, more referrals, and steadier recurring revenue. His mission is simple: Build AI tools that are actually useful, tools that help entrepreneurs and educators make a bigger impact with the work they already do best.
