    Overcoming Self-Doubt & Imposter Syndrome: Embrace Success

    Overcoming self-doubt starts with noticing how it creeps in. Leslie breaks down three common traps, the comparison trap, the perfectionism pitfall, and imposter syndrome, and shares how she pushed through her own doubts when she was starting her business. Then she offers practical ways to stop overthinking: set small goals, embrace imperfection, take imperfect action, and practice mindfulness. You'll also hear why fixating on the destination can hold you back, how to celebrate small wins with a journal or gratitude jar, why a mentor and a supportive circle matter, and how self-compassion and gratitude help you step out of your comfort zone and embrace success.

    Determination and Grit: How Entrepreneurs Overcome Setbacks

    Determination and grit are what carry entrepreneurs through setbacks and adversity. Leslie opens up about her own moments of self-doubt while quietly building her consulting business behind the scenes, then explains the difference between determination and grit and how a growth mindset and resilience help you bounce back. You'll get practical strategies for overcoming setbacks: step back and reassess what went wrong, lean on mentors and fellow entrepreneurs, protect your energy with self-care and self-compassion, and reframe every setback as a learning experience. She also celebrates the launch of The Mindful Journey Journal and the relaunch of Nurturing Your Soul: A Guide to Practicing Self-Care on Amazon, two journals for beating procrastination and setting priorities.

    Mastering Productivity: Work-From-Home Tips for Remote Work

    Work-from-home productivity takes more than a laptop and good intentions. Leslie shares practical tips for remote work: create a dedicated workspace, set clear working hours and boundaries, build a routine, and manage your time with techniques like the Pomodoro Technique and time blocking. She covers staying connected with remote teams on tools like Zoom and Teams, using project management software such as monday.com, and protecting your work-life balance with breaks and self-care. The episode opens with a Mother's Day tribute to mompreneurs balancing family and business, and closes with the story behind The Mindful Journey Journal, now on Amazon.

    Self-Care for Entrepreneurs: How to Avoid Burnout

    Self-care for entrepreneurs isn't a luxury. It's how you avoid burnout and protect your mental health while you build. Recorded for Mental Health Awareness Month, this episode opens with Leslie's own story: after starting her entrepreneurial journey in 2016 and pushing through long hours, she hit burnout and mental fatigue, then learned to set boundaries, rest, and lean on mindfulness practices like meditation and journaling. Next, she talks with her friend JD, an entrepreneur running multiple businesses in two states, about why self-care matters so much for business owners, the habits he relies on (sleep, nutrition, exercise, boundaries, and hobbies), how to let go of self-care guilt, and how checking in with yourself helps you manage stress.
