    Power Up Your Life Podcast | Powered by GoBundance Women | Speak and Succeed: Trusting Your Own Voice | Episode 62 with Karen Laos ✨ Trusting Your Own Voice: Karen Laos on Confident Communication, Agency, & Speaking Up In this episode of the Power Up Your Life podcast, hosts Kelly Resendez and Mandy McAllister welcome communication expert and speaker Karen Laos, author of ‘Trust Your Own Voice’ and host of Ignite Your Confidence. Karen shares how a mortifying boardroom moment led her to confront self-doubt, reclaim agency, and help women speak up with confidence. She discusses how childhood conditioning can silence women’s voices, why the worst leadership advice is to “stay silent to be safe,” and offers practical steps to become a thought leader: define the problem you solve, communicate simply, and follow her “3 Ds”—decide, declare, deliver. Karen also teaches confidence-building tools like a “celebration portfolio,” portable confidence, speaking first in meetings, nervous-system regulation, and walking into rooms like you own the place. 💪🙌 Connect with Karen at: karenlaos.com 00:00 Meet Karen Laos 01:23 Boardroom Wake Up Call 03:58 Finding Agency 06:36 Stop Playing It Safe 08:55 Becoming a Speaker 12:39 Identity Shift Tools 15:09 GoBundance Women Break 15:57 Build Real Confidence 19:47 Clarity and Nervous System 22:32 Walk In Like You Own It 23:59 Key Takeaways Recap 25:30 Where to Find Karen 27:20 Final Outro ✅ If this content resonated with you, drop a like, comment, and share with your friends!

She offers practical parenting scripts and habits like saying “no” with values-based reasons, having kids practice the “why,” and letting them save and buy with their own money. She encourages family conversations about what money is for, compares money management to charging devices, and advocates starting with generosity by letting kids choose where to give. Dr. Myers also recounts her forced pivot from pharmacy to entrepreneurship after a retinal detachment, discusses clarity through action, and invites listeners to watch her TED Talk and connect through her website.
