From psychologist to business strategist — Gail Golden shares her journey of curating life and leadership, helping overwhelmed leaders focus on what truly matters while scaling businesses with clarity and purpose. In this episode of the She Leads podcast, host Adrienne welcomes Gail Golden, a seasoned coach, psychologist, and author of Curating Your Life. Drawing from her experience supporting executives and entrepreneurs, Gail introduces her framework for designing life as a personal exhibit — prioritizing what's essential, discarding distractions, and embracing “good enough” in areas outside one's true passions. Gail reflects on her leap into entrepreneurship during the 2009 financial crisis, sharing lessons on adaptability, competitive positioning, and evolving strategies from startup survival to million-dollar growth. She underscores the importance of delegation, reminding leaders to focus only on what only they can do — whether in business or in personal roles like parenting and caregiving. The conversation also explores the hidden costs of over-responsiveness, the mental barriers that hold leaders back, and the dangers of comparing private struggles to others' public appearances. Gail highlights the power of self-awareness, managing inner critics, and working with a coach who blends business expertise with psychological insight. With warmth and wisdom, Gail invites listeners to re-curate their lives as priorities shift, embrace meaningful relationships, and find strength in conscious choices. Hopefully, her insights will leave you inspired to design the next chapter of your life with intention and courage. Ready to rethink how you're curating your own life and leadership?

Are you really focused on the tasks that make you money? Most founders and entrepreneurs only have a couple of core activities that actually drive revenue. So, if you were asked to name them right now, could you?   In this episode, we're getting real about what Eleanor calls "$10,000 tasks” - the specific, high-value activities that bring in the cash. It's easy to get bogged down with busy work that doesn't move the needle, like focusing on the idea of sales instead of the actions that lead to them.   If you feel like you've tried everything to boost your revenue but nothing's working, Eleanor is challenging you to get down and dirty with the daily, cash-producing tasks that truly matter. You'll learn a simple, daily action you can take that plants the seeds for future revenue, and it only takes a few minutes every day.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://safimedia.co/WO64

You're told to niche down, get visible, raise your prices, do the things. And you want to—you're smart, you're trained, maybe you have certifications stacked like pancakes. But still, something keeps stalling. In this episode, I'm sharing why strategy only works when your nervous system actually feels safe receiving success. Through real coaching stories and scientific insights, discover the hidden connection between your childhood experiences, nervous system responses, and your ability to earn more money. This isn't about branding or marketing—it's about the inner work that makes or breaks your next chapter. Learn why profit comes AFTER safety and how to build a business from the inside out.   What You'll Learn Why highly educated, certified professionals struggle to sell their services despite having all the qualifications How to spot when what looks like self-sabotage is actually your nervous system trying to protect you The real reason you keep procrastinating, undervaluing your work, or avoiding follow-up calls Why success feels dangerous instead of thrilling if you grew up in chaos, poverty, or pressure How childhood experiences of instability directly impact your adult earning capacity and business confidence The difference between building confidence through external validation versus internal safety How to hold your pricing like a spell, not a price tag, and develop unshakeable confidence in your worth Why your "weird" passions and unconventional life chapters are actually your biggest business advantages The concept of nervous system anchoring and creating emotional contracts with yourself for success Practical steps to build safety before you build your brand, so your strategy actually works How to shift from "I can do this once I'm more confident" to "confidence comes through doing" Why feeling behind or stuck doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong—you're just building on the right foundation Key Topics Covered     •    Nervous system regulation for entrepreneurs     •    Trauma-informed business coaching approaches     •    The connection between childhood experiences and adult earning capacity     •    Self-sabotage patterns in high-achieving women     •    Safety versus growth in business development     •    Internal blocks to pricing and visibility     •    Converting unique life experiences into business value     •    The psychology of money and success fears     •    Healing as a prerequisite to business growth     •    Building containers for client transformation   Episode Summary In this powerful solo episode, Sarah is challenging everything you've been told about building a successful business. Opening with the frustration many entrepreneurs feel—having all the right credentials and training but still feeling stuck—Sarah introduces her revolutionary concept that "you earn at the speed of safety." Through intimate coaching stories, she reveals how a client learned to hold her pricing "like a spell, not a price tag," and how confidence doesn't come from external validation but from building internal safety first. Sarah explains the neuroscience behind why success feels dangerous to those who grew up in chaos or instability, and how what we label as "self-sabotage" is often brilliant self-protection. The episode explores how your unconventional story and "weird" passions are actually your greatest business advantages, not obstacles to overcome. Sarah addresses the common entrepreneurial fear of being "behind" or "late," reframing this experience as being perfectly positioned to build sustainable success on a solid foundation. Throughout the episode, Sarah weaves together psychology, neuroscience, and practical business wisdom to create a roadmap for building businesses from the inside out. She emphasizes that the real work isn't about perfecting your marketing funnel—it's about creating safety within your nervous system so that strategy can actually work. The episode concludes with an invitation to examine where you still feel unsafe to be seen, receive, or trust yourself, positioning these insights as the true portal to business transformation and sustainable income growth.   Related Episodes from the Game on Girlfriend® Podcast     • Ep. 197: Money Beliefs That Hold You Back from Making More https://sarahwalton.com/money-beliefs/     • Ep. 18: Why On Earth Did You Do That? https://sarahwalton.com/why-that/     • Ep. 1: Don't Live A Life of "Almosts" https://sarahwalton.com/dont-live-a-life-of-almosts/   Free gift from Sarah: Book a free 15-minute call to explore working together: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/60d4f7f6/appointment/52999780/calendar/909961?appointmentTypelds%5B%5D=52999800 Ready to shift from chasing to receiving in your business?

What if your past numbers don't get to decide your future? And they definitely don't get to dictate how you feel about yourself today.   In this week's episode of The Money Coach School, I'm showing you why tracking your numbers isn't the problem—it's how you use them. Too many high-achieving women quietly punish themselves with revenue comparisons, spiral into shame when income dips, and let spreadsheets dictate their confidence. That ends today.   We're unpacking the hidden cost of what I call the Spreadsheet Smackdown—and how to reclaim your power by leading with numbers instead of chasing them. You'll learn how to shift into making clean, forward-facing financial decisions that reflect the woman you're becoming, not the one in your rear-view mirror. Grab your notepad because you'll want to catch the coaching questions included in this episode.   In this episode, I talk about: The subtle ways women use past revenue to second-guess themselves.   Why your spreadsheet isn't the CEO—your million-dollar identity is.   The mindset shift that turns tracking into expansion instead of contraction.   Three powerful coaching questions to stop comparison and fuel bold money moves.   Why your next level starts with forward-facing numbers and future-driven leadership.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to explore the Overflow workshop,  click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/100

Have you been intentional about what stays in your life—and what goes? If you've been following this special Beyond the CEO mini-series on the seven transitions every founder must face, you know last week was all about play, curiosity, and exploration. Now, in Transition Six—Intentional Design—we take everything you've discovered in that playful, curious phase and start shaping it into a grounded, deliberate vision for what's next. This isn't about hustling toward another “should.” It's about building your next chapter with clarity, purpose, and your own rules. Kris shares why this stage only works if you've truly given yourself the gift of experimentation first—and how skipping that step leads to recreating the same patterns you've outgrown. She walks through her own clarity breakthroughs (including a newfound love of pickleball, hosting in-person gatherings, and refining her environment) and invites you to ask yourself: What's in? What's out? What's worth designing into the next version of your life? Here's what we explore: Why play and exploration are prerequisites for true clarity How to sculpt a new vision without dragging old expectations into it The importance of refining, not just adding Why environment, people, and commitments all deserve intentional choice How universal truths guide every stage of your evolution This episode is your invitation to stop defaulting to what's inherited, expected, or safe—and start crafting a life and business that reflects the woman you are now.

Welcome back to the podcast, beautiful! This week, I'm sharing something special — an audio straight from my Femme Fatale Activation Series. This is Audio 4, and in it, we're bridging fantasy with ACTION. Who is the version of you that you're always daydreaming about becoming? What's one (or more) area of your life you're ready to glow-up? In this activation, you'll learn how to stop waiting for “one day” and start practicing her today — so your dream life has no choice but to meet you where you are. ✨ Grab your notebook, press play, and let's rehearse the life you've been imagining.

Sometimes you've got to ditch the rules, rewrite the playbook and start to DO IT YOUR WAY! That's where I found myself after 10 years working in the corporate world. I was tired of working 8-5pm (really it was more like 7:30am-6:30pm) and having no control over my time. Even if I wrapped up for the day, I was expected to sit at my desk because that is what the leadership team did to set an example for the others.  Over time, the stress of working so much and having two little kids got to me and eventually had me reevaluate what was important in my life. I decided there wasn't a boss in the world that would let me off work to go do all of the things I wanted to do when I wanted to do them so I became an entrepreneur.   It's time you started to write your own rules. Want to work from 9-2pm every day? Do it! Give yourself permission to have different seasons in life. Sometimes you are working 12 hour days to launch and build a million dollar business. Other times, it's ok to take a sigh and make family a priority while revenue stays flat. Do what feels right to you!   What if success wasn't about climbing someone else's ladder… but building your own? In this episode of the DO IT MY WAY podcast, we're redefining what success really means—without the hustle guilt, the comparison trap, or the need for approval. You'll hear the real talk every female founder needs: how to break the rules, trust your gut, and finally feel like enough, no matter what your revenue says. Because success isn't a title. It's doing life and business on your terms.

Most women entrepreneurs are running marathons in their businesses - constantly pushing forward but feeling like they're going nowhere fast.
