Kymmiee Lately

Kymmiee Unfiltered: For ambitious women in their 30s who want the business, the life, the luxury, and refuse to choose. Let me guess. You want the business, the love life, the money, AND the life that actually feels good. But everyone keeps telling you to "pick one" or "slow down" or "be realistic."  What if you didn't have to choose? Between the business and the relationship. Between the money and the meaning. Between being ambitious and being feminine. This is a podcast for women who want the business, the relationship, the wealth, AND the life they're obsessed with.  No apologies for your ambition. No holding back your standards. No softening your success. I refused to pick between being the founder or the wife. Between ambitious or feminine. Between building wealth or building love. So I chose all of it. I'm Kymmiee, founder of Élevé, a luxury fragrance brand. I'm building my dream life in real time: the business, the marriage, the money, the whole thing. And I'm here to show you exactly how to build yours. Every episode gives you the frameworks, strategies, and real talk you need to: - Build a brand that reflects who you are - Date with standards (or thrive in marriage without shrinking) - Design a life in your 30s that you don't need to escape from From the Invisible Taxes Women Pay to why vision boards are b******t, we say what everyone's thinking but won't say out loud. No filter on my ambition. No filter on my truth. No filter on what it actually takes. You can actually have it all. And you don't need to apologize for it. Pull up a chair.

    The Invisible Taxes Women Pay (And How to Stop)

    You're not broke—you're just paying the wrong bills. Every day, you're paying invisible taxes with your time, energy, and self-respect. And you don't even realize you're doing it. In this episode, I'm breaking down the 5 invisible taxes that cost me years of my life: the nice girl tax, the low maintenance tax, the humble tax, the patience tax, and the emotional labor tax. I'm sharing exactly what these taxes cost me, the moment I realized I was paying them, and the exact steps I took to stop. We're covering: The nice girl tax (and why people-pleasing costs you respect)The low maintenance tax (and the "dramatic" comment that woke me up)The humble tax (and how I stayed broke while staying humble)The patience tax (and the 2 years I lost waiting for people to change)The emotional labor tax (and why the 3am friend never showed up for me)How to identify which tax is costing you the mostThe 3-step action plan to stop paying invisible taxesIf you've ever felt like you're giving everything and getting nothing back, this one's for you.

    The 10 Things You're Still Negotiating in Your 30s (That You Shouldn't Be)

    Let me tell you one thing I did when I turned 30: I stopped apologizing for my standards. I stopped shrinking to make people comfortable. I stopped accepting "maybes" and "I guess" as responses in my life. Your 20s are for figuring out. Your 30s are for protecting what you figured out. And that starts with non-negotiables. But here's what nobody tells you: your non-negotiables aren't just the things you don't tolerate. They're about what you require to thrive. In this episode, I'm breaking down the 10 non-negotiables you need in your 30s, organized into three categories: time, relationships, and your future. We're covering: - Why your mornings are yours (no exceptions) - The hard stop time that hustle culture doesn't want you to have - How to say "no" without explanation - What it means for a partner to actively support your ambitions - Why financial independence is non-negotiable (even in marriage) - The difference between being with someone because you want to vs. can't afford not to If you're in your 30s and ready to stop negotiating the things that matter most, this one's for you. --- 🌐 kymmieelately.com 📱 @kymmieelately | @houseof.eleve 📧 podcast@kymmieelately.com New episodes every Thursday.

    Why Your Goals Failed by February (And the One System That Won't)

    My goals used to die by February every single year. Big plans on January 1st, complete failure by March. I tried everything: planners, vision boards, accountability partners, habit trackers. Nothing worked. Until I discovered the 12 Week Year. In this episode, I'm breaking down why annual goals are designed to fail and the exact system that helped me accomplish more in 24 months than I did in the previous 5 years combined. This is the system that helped me launch Élevé, batch create 48 podcast episodes, and stay consistent with my movement goals. We're covering: Why your goals died by February (and it's not about discipline)The 4 reasons annual goals don't workHow the 12 Week Year system actually worksMy Q1 2026 goals: what I planned, what I executed, and what I learnedThe exact framework to plan your Q2 (step by step)How to track progress weekly without burning outIf you're tired of setting goals you never finish, this one's for you.

    Wedding Planning Without the Stress: What Actually Matters (Not the Dress)

    Can we talk about how wedding planning has become an industry designed to stress you out? Somehow we went from celebrating your love to spending $50,000 and losing your mind over napkin colors. I was juggling planning a wedding, starting a business, and maintaining my marriage while not trying to lose my mind. Here's my takeaway: wedding planning doesn't have to make you pull out your hair. It only gets stressful when you forget what you're actually celebrating. In this episode, I'm giving you the real guide (the one I needed when planning my October wedding). This is not a Pinterest picture-perfect guide. This is how to plan your wedding and actually enjoy the process. We're covering: - Why the wedding industry is designed to stress you out - The 3 biggest sources of stress and how to avoid them - What to actually prioritize (entertainment, food, videographer, venue, dress) - What doesn't matter (napkins, fonts, Instagram perfection) - 5 tips to enjoy the planning process: delegate, say no without guilt, make quick decisions, schedule wedding-free activities, remember what you're celebrating - What I wish I'd known: the day goes fast, people won't notice what you stressed about, and the wedding is one day but the marriage is forever If you're planning a wedding or thinking about it someday, this one's for you. Keep it simple, keep it joyful, keep it yours. --- 🌐 kymmieelately.com 📱 @kymmieelately | @houseof.eleve 📧 podcast@kymmieelately.com New episodes every Thursday.

    Why I Started a Fragrance Brand in My 30s (And Why You Should Build Something That's Yours)

    People keep asking me: Why fragrance? Why luxury? Why now, in my 30s? The Instagrammable answer is easy. But the real answer? I was tired. Tired of waiting for life to happen to me. Tired of my life not feeling like mine. I spent my whole 20s building somebody else's dreams. Climbing someone else's ladder. Playing by rules I didn't write. I was successful by external measures, but every day I'd come home and think: Is this it? So I decided to build something that was mine. Something that felt like me. In this episode, I'm telling you the real story (not the edited version) of why I'm building Élevé, what it's teaching me, and why you should build something of your own, even if it scares you. We're covering: - The breaking point that made me resign within the hour - Why it had to be fragrance (and why it had to be luxury) - 5 hard realities of building your own brand - The lessons I'm learning: perfectionism is procrastination in a fancy outfit, confidence comes after action (not before), and done is better than perfect - Why your 30s aren't about waiting, they're about betting on yourself Élevé launches in March 2026. I'm terrified. I'm excited. And I'm doing it anyway. If you've been building somebody else's dream and wondering when it's your turn, this one's for you. --- 🌐 kymmieelately.com 📱 @kymmieelately | @houseof.eleve 📧 podcast@kymmieelately.com New episodes every Thursday.

    Why 'Treating Yourself' Keeps You Broke: The Self-Care Tax & The 11 Habits That Build Wealth

    Can we talk about how self-care has become a scam? Somehow we went from "take care of yourself" to "buy a $60 candle and you'll be healed." Real self-care (the kind that changes your life) isn't aesthetically pleasing, it's not Instagrammable, and it definitely doesn't fit in a gift basket. Real self-care is uncomfortable. It requires discipline. In this episode, I'm breaking down the Self-Care Tax: the hidden cost of confusing self-soothing for self-care, and the 11 habits that actually build wealth and the life you want. We're covering: - The difference between self-care and self-soothing - Why real self-care isn't always comfortable - 11 unsexy habits organized into three categories: body, mind, and future - Why you're spending $200 on appearance but $0 on skills - How to build a life you don't need to escape from The 11 habits: Move your body, protect your sleep, eat intentionally, hydrate, consume consciously, journal, set phone boundaries, therapy, invest in skills, protect your peace, and plan your rest. If you're tired of the wellness industrial complex and ready for self-care that actually works, this one's for you. --- 🌐 kymmieelately.com 📱 @kymmieelately | @houseof.eleve 📧 podcast@kymmieelately.com New episodes every Thursday.

    Stop Waiting for Permission to Want More

    You're waiting for permission. Permission to want more. Permission to be ambitious. Permission to prioritize yourself. Permission to say no. Permission to want the career AND the relationship AND the life you actually want. And you don't even realize you're doing it. In this episode, I'm breaking down the 5 areas where you're waiting for permission you don't actually need: 1. Permission to be ambitious (without apologizing for it) 2. Permission to prioritize yourself (without being called selfish) 3. Permission to want "having it all" (career, love, life, rest) 4. Permission to change your mind (about anything) 5. Permission to fail (and try again anyway) Here's the truth: No one is coming to give you permission. Your parents won't fully understand your choices. Your partner has their own fears. Society benefits from you staying small. The only permission that matters is the permission you give yourself. This episode includes a 4-step action plan to stop waiting and start building. By the end, you'll know exactly what you're waiting for and why you need to stop. If you're tired of shrinking your ambitions, minimizing your needs, and waiting for someone to validate what you want, this one's for you. You already have permission. Now it's time to use it. --- KYMMIEE UNFILTERED For ambitious women in their 30s who want the business, the life, the luxury, and refuse to choose. New episodes every Thursday.

    Your 30s Aren't the Glow-Up You Expected (Here's What They Actually Are)

    People talk about your 30s like this big dramatic turning point, like life is supposed to make sense the moment you turn 30. But there's a kind of magic that comes with turning 30. It's not loud. It's quiet. It's the kind of magic you only notice once you pause long enough to feel it. For me, turning 30 felt like coming home to myself. In this episode, I'm unpacking the quiet shift that happens in your 30s, the one nobody really prepares you for. We're diving into: - The core difference between your 20s and 30s (and why it matters) - Why your 30s feel like choosing instead of trying - How radical honesty with yourself changes everything - The truth about "soft life" content vs the reality most of us live - Why peace becomes more attractive than potential - What it means to become who you actually are (not who you need to be) If you're in your 30s and feeling like you're finally stepping into yourself, or if you're in your 20s wondering what's next, this conversation is for you. --- 🌐 kymmieelately.com 📱 @kymmieelately | @houseof.eleve 📧 podcast@kymmieelately.com New episodes every Thursday.
