#269 From Childhood Dream to Porsche Driver with Paula Burgess

In this powerful and playful episode of the Rich Lady Revolution podcast, Diane McKendrick sits down with Paula Burgess to explore what happens when a childhood dream stops feeling impossible and starts becoming inevitable. From growing up playing with Matchbox racers instead of Barbies, to becoming a business owner, race car driver, speaker, and future Porsche owner, Paula shares a deeply personal journey of identity, ambition, and what it truly means to allow yourself to want more. Together they unpack the real story behind the shift: the retreat Paula nearly didn't attend, the drive day that cracked everything open, and the moment behind the wheel of a Porsche 911 on a wet mountain road that changed who she believed herself to be. Diane breaks down her live identity framework in real time, and it is one of the most grounded and electric conversations this podcast has delivered.

#268 Melissa Langton, The People Paracetamol

If the word "HR" makes you tense up, this episode is for you. I sat down with my friend and HR expert Melissa Langton, founder of Accelerate, and we had a conversation that I think every businesswoman needs to hear. Melissa has a gift for making this stuff feel real, human and completely doable, regardless of the size of your team. We talk about why HR gets such a bad reputation, what it actually means to lead your people well, and why the real problem in most businesses is not the employee. It is the leader. We cover the myth that HR is only for big business, how genuine curiosity is one of the most underrated superpowers in leadership, why middle managers are the missing link in so many growing teams, and what it really means to build a workplace where people feel safe, aligned and supported. Melissa also shares how her dad's accounting firm in Rockhampton sparked her passion for people and why helping businesses handle the tough conversations is what she was born to do. If you have a team, or you are building one, you will walk away from this with a completely different lens on what good leadership actually looks like.

#267 The Real Reason You're Scared to Post Content

You know you should be showing up online more consistently. You have the knowledge, the experience, and the desire to make a difference. So why is the content still not happening? In this episode, Diane gets radically honest about the real reasons women hold back from posting, and it has nothing to do with strategy. She shares her own story of moving from crippling shyness to speaking on stages and building a globally trusted brand, and breaks down the internal processes that made that shift possible. This month inside the Rich Lady Revolution Membership, we are running a content challenge to help you move through the visibility blocks, overcome the fear of judgement, and start showing up in a way that feels real, consistent and genuinely yours.

#266 Let’s Talk Selling from Stage

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Rich Lady Revolution, Diane McKendrick shares her raw and refreshing approach to selling from the stage - without manipulation, pressure, or pretending to be someone you’re not. Recorded during a live workshop, Diane opens up about her journey from being a shy, overwhelmed woman who could barely order a coffee… to becoming a sought-after speaker, retreat host, author of six books, and co-founder of Those2Sisters. This conversation goes far beyond sales tactics. Diane unpacks the truth about authentic connection, embodiment, energetics, identity, nervous system safety, and why people don’t buy because they’re convinced - they buy because they feel something. ✨ Ready to become more visible, confident, and consistent online?
