Kendall Strampel on Self-Trust, Taking Risks and Building a Business Before You Feel Ready

Kendall Strampel on Self-Trust, Taking Risks and Building a Business Before You Feel Ready

What happens when you stop waiting for certainty and start trusting yourself instead? In this episode of What She Needed, I'm joined by entrepreneur, wealth coach, and founder Kendall Strampel for a conversation that goes far beyond business strategy. Kendall built her first seven-figure coaching business in her early twenties, but as you'll hear in this conversation, the journey wasn't nearly as glamorous as it may have looked from the outside. We talk about growing up as a self-proclaimed tomboy, learning how to embrace femininity later in life, scaling a business faster than her nervous system could handle, navigating burnout, making bold decisions before feeling ready, and why some of the most important lessons come from the moments when things don't go according to plan. This is a conversation about self-trust, identity, resilience, and what it really means to build a life that feels aligned with who you're becoming. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: 1. How Kendall accidentally built a seven-figure coaching business 2. Why she dropped out of college and moved across the country 3. The surprising role social media played in her entrepreneurial journey 4. Growing up feeling more comfortable around boys than girls 5. Learning to embrace femininity and becoming a true "girls' girl" 6. Scaling too fast and the lessons that followed 7. What nobody tells you about managing teams and rapid business growth 8. Why entrepreneurship requires constant reinvention 9. The mindset shift that helped her navigate uncertainty 10. The importance of self-trust when there are no guarantees 11. Why overnight success often comes with hidden challenges 12.

Amy Landino on Building a Life You're Excited to Wake Up For

What happens when the productivity expert everyone looks to for answers discovers that success isn't really about routines at all? In the very first episode of What She Needed, I sit down with bestselling author, keynote speaker, high-performance coach, and creator Amy Landino for a conversation about ambition, identity, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and the unexpected lessons that shape the life we're truly meant to live. Amy is best known for her global bestseller Good Morning, Good Life, a book that has helped thousands of women rethink how they approach their mornings, their goals, and their time. But in this conversation, we go beyond morning routines and productivity hacks. We talk about what happens when you pivot into a new chapter before you have proof it's the right move, the pressure women feel around timelines and motherhood, the realities of building a business over decades, and why becoming the person you want to be matters more than forcing outcomes. This episode is an honest reminder that sometimes the thing we need isn't a better plan. It's a deeper trust in ourselves.
