  1. Engineer Stability in Business & Life

    FEB 18

    Engineer Stability in Business & Life

    What if the reason you feel exhausted isn't because you need to try harder... ...but because what everything rests on needs reinforcement? In this episode of the Life Engineering Podcast, I sit down with Anna Ludwinowski, four-time founder and business foundation strategist to explore what most high achievers overlook: Stability. When growth stalls, we assume the answer is more. More marketing. More effort. More offers. More hustle. But in both business and marriage, the pattern is the same: When the foundation is cracked, scaling only amplifies instability. In this conversation, we explore: Why burnout is often a structural issue, not a motivation problemThe hidden danger of "just scale" adviceHow discounting reflects boundary misalignmentThe embarrassment high performers feel when things "should be working by now"The CLEAR framework (Client, Offers, Pricing, Positioning, Messaging)Why identity shifts are required for sustainable growthAnd what a truly well-founded life looks like This isn't a hacks episode. It's about engineering clarity. Engineering alignment. Engineering stability. Because a life of no regrets is not built on hustle. It's built on foundation. 📌 Connect with Anna Ludwinowski Website: https://annaludwinowski.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-ludwinowski-business-foundation-coach/The Foundation Assessment: https://annaludwinowski.com/foundation-assessment/ Gabriela Embon – Speaker – Author – Life Engineering coach Website: https://gabrielaembon.com/ Email: Gabriela@GabrielaEmbon.com Becoming a Power Couple – 4 Pillars to Engineer Legendary Marriages Book: https://gabrielaembon.com/book/ https://www.gabrielaembon.com https://www.facebook.com/gabriela.embon https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabrielaembon https://www.facebook.com/coachingacademynet https://www.instagram.com/coachingacademynet https://www.youtube.com/@coachingacademynet

    How Mentally Fit Leaders Think Under Pressure | Life Engineering EP 75

    In this powerful episode of the Life Engineering Podcast, I sit down with Claire Hayek a former engineer turned neuroscience authority trusted by global brands like Airbus, Amazon, and Merck. Claire and I share a similar path: moving from technical systems into human systems. Together, we explore what it truly takes to think clearly, lead effectively, and stay grounded under pressure. In this episode, we explore: Why mental fitness is the missing skill in modern leadershipHow the brain sabotages us under stress and how to stop itWhy clarity beats certainty when making high-stakes decisionsThe neuroscience behind fear, self-doubt, and performanceHow to interrupt overthinking and emotional spirals in real timeWhat happens in the nervous system before a TEDx stage momentWhy leadership isn't taught, it's practiced Claire introduces practical, science-backed tools leaders can use in 10–30 seconds a day to build mental resilience, regain presence, and lead from the "brain CEO" instead of survival mode. This conversation is for leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals, and anyone who feels pressure to perform and wants to do so without burning out or living with regret. 🎧 Listen in to learn how to train your brain to work for you - not against you. 📌 Connect with Claire Hayek Website: https://mspteambuilding.ca/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clairehayek/Email: claire@mspteambuilding.ca Gabriela Embon – Speaker – Author – Life Engineering Coach Website: https://gabrielaembon.com/ Email: Gabriela@GabrielaEmbon.com Becoming a Power Couple – 4 Pillars to Engineer Legendary Marriages Book: https://gabrielaembon.com/book/ https://www.gabrielaembon.com https://www.facebook.com/gabriela.embon https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabrielaembon https://www.facebook.com/coachingacademynet https://www.instagram.com/coachingacademynet https://www.youtube.com/@coachingacademynet

    The Advisor Who Built Growth & a Love Story Worthy of His Next Chapter | Life Engineering EP 74

    What if the next level of growth in your business didn’t require giving up equity… And the next chapter of love didn’t require giving up who you are? In this episode of the Life Engineering Podcast, Gabriela Embon sits down with Paul Roy Business Partner–Level Advisor, speaker, author, and founder of Profitable Practice Pro, for a conversation that seamlessly weaves together business strategy, personal reinvention, and enduring love. Paul has spent decades working with founders, co-founders, and firm partners who hit a familiar ceiling: Momentum slows. Decisions bottleneck. And the true value of the business remains locked. While most leaders are told the only way forward is to bring in investors or partners often at the cost of equity and control, Paul offers a radically different approach. He steps in as an Operating Partner without the equity trade, helping founders unlock growth while keeping 100% of what they’ve built. But this conversation goes far beyond business. Paul shares the deeply human story behind the advisor, the life lived, the lessons learned, and the reinvention that led him not only to his most aligned work… but also to one of the most beautiful love stories Gabriela has ever heard. Together, they explore: What truly breaks growth ceilings in business and in lifeWhy operational clarity often unlocks personal clarityHow leadership structure impacts health, marriage, and identityWhat second (and later) chapters in love can teach us about partnershipThe difference between managing success and designing a life of alignmentLegacy, meaning, and what really matters at the end of the journey This episode is a masterclass in Life Engineering, proof that business success and deep love don’t have to compete. When designed intentionally, they can elevate each other. 🎧 Listen if you’re ready to scale without losing yourself and love without shrinking your life. 📌 Connect with Paul Roy Website: https://profitablepracticepro.com/LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/paulroy1Email: paul@paulroy.ca Gabriela Embon – Speaker – Author – Life Engineering coach Website: https://gabrielaembon.com/ Email: Gabriela@GabrielaEmbon.com Becoming a Power Couple – 4 Pillars to Engineer Legendary Marriages Book: https://gabrielaembon.com/book/ https://www.gabrielaembon.com https://www.facebook.com/gabriela.embon https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabrielaembon https://www.facebook.com/coachingacademynet https://www.instagram.com/coachingacademynet https://www.youtube.com/@coachingacademynet

    What separates Common Leaders from Uncommon ones | Life Engineering EP 73

    What does it really mean to lead without regret? Not just to achieve but to matter. Not just to succeed but to leave a legacy. In this powerful episode of the Life Engineering Podcast, Gabriela Embon sits down with John Gallagher, founder of Growing Champions Coaching & Consulting and host of the Uncommon Leader podcast. With over 25 years of experience coaching executives, entrepreneurs, and leadership teams inside Fortune 500 organizations, John brings a rare blend of process thinking, faith, and lived integrity to the conversation.

    Me Power, Not Isolation: Redefining Empowerment with Dr. LaNysha Adams | Life Engineering EP 70

    In this powerful episode of the Life Engineering Podcast, Gabriela Embon sits down with Dr. LaNysha Adams, TEDx speaker, 10-time award-winning author of Me Power, Director of Student Wellness at Santa Fe Community College, and founder of the Me x We Institute. Together, they unpack what true empowerment really is and what it is not. Dr. LaNysha shares a courageous story of studying abroad in England and Mexico, navigating panic, uncertainty, and zero technology (no iPhone, no Wi-Fi!) and how that experience became a blueprint for engineering a life of no regrets. From there, the conversation dives into her concept of "Me Power": not waiting for someone to "give you" power, but reclaiming the knowledge of self and acting from it. They challenge the common myths that empowerment means isolation, selfishness, or walking away from others-and explore how real empowerment is deeply connected to community, contribution, and "Me ➝ Multiple We". You'll hear about: LaNysha's "no turning back" story of leaving the US at 20 for nine months abroadThe true definition of Me Power: knowledge of self + principled actionThree big misconceptions about power (finite, granted by others, and zero-sum)How to tell if your choices come from correction (fear, overcompensation) or alignmentThe "tree in the storm" metaphor: when to bend, when to root deeperWhy empowerment doesn't mean "I don't need anyone"The five principles of Me Power in action:Embrace your barriersFocus on your strengthsSpeak for your lifeChoose your guidesRitualize your reflectionA beautiful reflection exercise using a single photo from a defining moment in your lifeHow she helps students and adults at crossroads rewrite their narrative of "who I am" 📌 About Dr. LaNysha Adams TEDx speaker, 10-time award-winning author of Me Power, and the Director of Student Wellness at Santa Fe Community College.
