Kirsten Graham: How the Right Foundation Unlocks the Extraordinary Life You Keep Putting Off

Kirsten Graham: How the Right Foundation Unlocks the Extraordinary Life You Keep Putting Off

Join Leslie Gaudet and Kirsten Graham, business strategist and outsourcing expert, for an honest and empowering conversation about what it truly means to stop surviving your business and start building the extraordinary life you actually envisioned when you started it. With a decade of experience helping entrepreneurs build businesses that work for their lives — not against them — Kirsten has guided countless women through the process of putting the right systems, support, and foundations in place so they can finally grow with confidence and clarity.  In this episode, Kirsten opens up about the why behind her mission, why delegating does not mean giving up control but rather leaning into someone else's expertise while you remain firmly in charge, and why so many entrepreneurs try to scale before their foundation is actually ready to hold the weight of their vision. You will hear why women often believe the lie that they have to know how to do everything in their business before they can let go of it, what becomes possible when a woman finally builds the right support team around her, and a beautiful story about one virtual assistant whose life changed because of the work Kirsten and her business partner do.   If you have been running your business on sheer determination and wondering why it still does not feel like freedom — this conversation will show you exactly what has been missing and what becomes possible when you finally build it right. ******************************************************************** Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign] leslie@herextraordinarylifebydesign.com  ******************************************************************** Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wondering whether being seen is going to cost them something.

Two Sides of the Coin: When What You WANT and What Feels SAFE Are Both True

Join Leslie Gaudet for a deeply honest conversation about the kind of decision that feels hard not because you do not know what you want, but because what you want and what feels safe are both true. In this episode, Leslie shares the tension she has been sitting with as she continues building her coaching business, her podcast, the Gatherings, and the work she feels called to do, while still holding onto the legal work that provides dependable income, predictability, and stability. Through her own experience of living in beautiful Playa del Carmen while realizing that many of her days still happen from the same chair, in front of the same screen, Leslie opens up about the quiet ache of creating a life that supports you, only to realize it may no longer leave enough room for you to fully live it. This conversation explores what happens when there is no obvious villain, no dramatic collapse, and nothing you can point to as proof that something has to change. Just the honest recognition that what once worked may have done its job, and the life you want now may be asking for something different. If you have ever known what you wanted and still found yourself hesitating because the safe choice still mattered, this conversation will help you stop turning the pause into evidence against yourself. ******************************************************************** Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign] leslie@herextraordinarylifebydesign.com  ******************************************************************** Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wondering whether being seen is going to cost them something.

Kim Costa: When Saying No to Oprah Led to Everything — Lessons in Bold, Aligned Living

Join Leslie Gaudet and Kim Costa, Top 5% Realtor® and creator of The Wheel House Method, for a fascinating and eye-opening conversation about the powerful relationship between the spaces we live in and the extraordinary lives we’re building. Kim's journey to this work is anything but ordinary. She built Clarity Farm from scratch — a beautiful property that ultimately left her feeling isolated and disconnected. And then she won an essay contest for The Oprah Winfrey Show and made the bold decision to decline filming because her home simply didn’t reflect her true self. Those two defining moments became the foundation for everything she now does. In this episode, Kim opens up about how she developed The Wheel House Method — a framework that evaluates homes across eight life dimensions including career, finance, health, relationships, and spirituality — and why she believes our homes are either actively supporting our extraordinary lives or quietly working against them. You’ll hear what it truly looks like to make a bold, aligned home decision from a place of deep self-knowledge, how financial intelligence and personal alignment must work together, and what her book reveals about the gap between how homes look and how they actually make us feel. If you have ever walked through your front door and felt like something was just not quite right — this conversation will help you finally understand why, and what to do about it. ******************************************************************** Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign] leslie@herextraordinarylifebydesign.com ******************************************************************** Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wondering whether being seen is going to cost them something.

The Space Between Knowing and Becoming (Why Knowing Isn't Always Enough to Change Your Life)

Join Leslie Gaudet for an honest conversation about the space many high-achieving women find themselves in but rarely talk about openly: the space between realizing something in their life no longer fits and understanding why they haven't been able to change it yet.  In this episode, Leslie explores what happens when awareness doesn't automatically lead to movement, why so many capable women turn their lack of action into evidence against themselves, and the private conclusions they begin drawing about who they are simply because a season has taken longer than they expected. Through reflection and lived experience, she invites listeners to consider whether the problem isn't a lack of clarity at all, but the meaning they've attached to still being in the middle of becoming.   If you've ever thought, I should've figured this out by now, or wondered why knowing something isn't working hasn't been enough to change it, this conversation will remind you that just because this season has taken longer than you expected, it doesn't mean you've failed.  ********************************************************************Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign] leslie@herextraordinarylifebydesign.com  ********************************************************************Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wondering whether being seen is going to cost them something.

Stacy Heisey-Terrell: The Extraordinary Move of Choosing a Career That Chooses You Back

Join Leslie Gaudet and Stacy Heisey-Terrell, Career Ownership Coach and HR veteran, for an honest and empowering conversation about what it really takes to stop fitting yourself into a career that was never built for you — and start designing one that actually is.  After decades in HR across demanding industries, Stacy experienced firsthand the burnout, broken promises, and unexpected disruptions that so many high-achieving women quietly endure. Rather than starting over from scratch, she made a bold, intentional move — and built the balanced, fulfilling work life she once only imagined. Now she helps other women do the same through her Career 2.0 framework.  In this episode, Stacy opens up about reconnecting with your values and strengths after years of adapting yourself to fit a role, how to build real autonomy without trading one form of pressure for another, and what separates the women who make the bold career move and land well from those who stay stuck at the edge of it.  If you've been quietly wondering whether there's a version of your career that actually fits who you are today — this conversation will remind you that it's not only possible, it's waiting for you.  ******************************************************************** Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign] leslie@herextraordinarylifebydesign.com  ******************************************************************** Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wondering whether being seen is going to cost them something.
