    How Community MULTIPLIES Your Success Rate with Liz Faircloth

    Okay friend… this one’s for the women building from the inside out. I got to sit down with Liz Faircloth on The Rooted Founder, and we went deep — not just into business strategy, but the emotional intelligence it takes to build something meaningful without losing yourself. Liz has built a multi-million dollar real estate company — but what really struck me was her honesty about the inner work. The triggers in partnerships. The identity shifts. The moments where you want to run — and the choice to stay rooted instead. We talked about what it means to lead with a mirror, not a mask… to build spaces where women feel safe, seen, and supported… and to create success that actually feels like freedom on the inside, not just the outside. She also shares what’s next — including how she’s building a new kind of investing space for women that prioritizes connection over competition, community over ego. It’s not just about what we build. It’s about how we build — and who we become along the way. If you’re in a season of growth that requires both courage and self-compassion… this one’s going to land deep. 🌱 Let me know what resonates. I’d love to hear what you’re walking through too.

    The Habit That's Secretly Draining Your Wealth Every Day with Kim Butler

    What if the way you’ve been taught to chase financial freedom is actually what’s keeping you stuck? In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with bestselling author and prosperity pioneer Kim Butler to challenge the outdated, hustle-heavy definitions of wealth. We talk about what real financial freedom looks like — not just more zeros in your bank account, but a life of value creation, stewardship, and peace. Kim breaks down the hidden lies of the scarcity mindset (yes, even the sneaky ones that look like productivity). She shares how to build true prosperity by aligning your money with your mission, serving from overflow, and shifting your daily habits from fear to flow. Whether you're scaling a business, building legacy wealth, or simply tired of feeling like freedom is just one more launch away — this episode will flip the script. Freedom isn’t earned. It’s remembered. And Kim’s here to help you remember.   CONNECT WITH KIM: https://stacigray.com/listen/ FREE TRAINING: How I Organize to Scale Businesses in 90-Day Sprints stacigray.com/SCALE Get the FREE GUIDE: 4 Essential Tips for Quickly Organizing Your Business to Scale: https://bit.ly/3qZJoyT Join my FREE Weekly Newsletter for Proven Strategies to propel you and your business forward: https://bit.ly/41IiaKY CHAPTERS:  00:00 Redefining Self-Worth and Purpose 02:11 The Quest for Financial Freedom 05:00  Bridging the Gap in Financial Mindset 11:49  Unlearning Scarcity and Embracing Prosperity 20:02 Daily Practices for Alignment and Gratitude 27:49 Transforming Habits for a Prosperous Mindset 35:42 Empowering Families Through Prosperity Thinking 44:19 Success as Service to Others

    How to Escape the Success Trap That's Killing Your Happiness with George Bryant

    You built the thing. You chased the dream. You hit the milestones. But deep down… something’s still missing. In this conversation, I sit down with my friend George Bryant to talk about the space between doing well and feeling whole. George opens up about his shift from chasing achievement to living from radical acceptance—and how it changed everything. We unpack how emotional triggers can become turning points, how real community is built (especially in an online world), and why vulnerability isn't weakness—it's the doorway to deeper relationships and real peace. If you're the kind of person who's done “all the right things” but still feels the tug for something more—this one’s for you. Because what got us here... won’t get us there.
