    117. One Coaching Call Saved Me Another Year of Struggle

    What if the thing slowing you down in your business… isn’t your strategy? In this episode of Simply Own It, I’m pulling back the curtain on a real-time experience from my own business — where one single coaching session saved me what I genuinely believe could have been an entire year of struggle, confusion, and unnecessary spending. I went into the call thinking I needed a better plan. A better strategy. A better way forward. What I actually needed? Honesty. In this conversation, I’m sharing: •The subtle (and sneaky) way comparison was impacting my business — even when I thought it wasn’t •How I was this close to investing thousands of dollars to fix a problem that didn’t actually exist •Why mindset work is not “woo” — it’s the most practical thing you can focus on •The real reason coaching can create massive breakthroughs faster than years of trying to figure it out alone •How one thought can completely change the trajectory of your business If you’ve been feeling stuck, overthinking your next move, or wondering why things feel harder than they should… this episode will help you see what might actually be in your way. Because the truth is — when you identify the real problem, everything becomes simpler. And sometimes, that clarity is just one conversation away.

    116: Soft Voice, Big Power: Owning Your Voice with Vocal Honey’s Kimberly Lafort

    You can be very visible and still feel completely unseen. In this episode of Simply Own It, I’m joined by voice guide and visibility coach Kimberly Laforte, creator of Vocal Honey. We go deep into what it really means to take up space with your voice — not just on a stage or a podcast, but at your kitchen table, in your relationships, and in your calendar. Kimberly shares her story of running an award-winning yoga studio while secretly relying on beta blockers just to speak, navigating a marriage where her spiritual self didn’t feel safe, and rebuilding her life (and last name) from the inside out. We talk about the moment she received the vision that became Vocal Honey, and how she shifted from chasing big stages to treating everyday conversations as the most important stage of all. Inside this episode, we explore: The difference between power over and power within—and how it changes who you attract Why silence, pauses, and “not answering yet” can be wildly powerful How scarcity sneaks out of your mouth as filler words like “um, so, like” What it really looks like to say no from self-trust instead of guilt Why your “soft” or “gentle” voice might actually be your greatest advantage How healing your relationship with your voice shifts your relationships, business, and legacy If you’ve ever replayed a conversation in your head, hated how you sounded, or told yourself you’re “not ready” to be more visible… this one will hit home in the most validating way. 🎧 Tune in, then check the show notes to connect with Kimberly, explore Vocal Honey, and see how we can work together if you’re ready to build a life and business that actually sound like you.

    115. What Happens When You Finally Trust Yourself

    Your business works. Your clients are happy. So why does the doubt keep coming back? In this episode, we’re talking about what actually changes when you finally trust yourself — not in a hype-y, “everything 10x’s overnight” way, but in the real, grounded shifts that make life feel steadier and simpler. We dive into belief lag (why your identity takes longer to catch up than your results), how decision-making becomes faster and cleaner, why time starts to feel less like pressure and more like intention, and what happens to your nervous system when you stop re-earning your confidence every launch. If you’re tired of outsourcing your authority, overthinking every move, or secretly bracing for it all to fall apart — this episode will help you rebuild trust in the woman who’s already proven she can do this.
