In this episode of Living Boldly Podcast, Kayla Hodges gets radically honest about how unresolved trauma in your body might be the hidden reason you're stuck — in sales, relationships, and your life. If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but still feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unmotivated, this conversation is your breakthrough.

Kayla explains how trauma impacts your nervous system, your brain, and ultimately, your ability to perform under pressure. She breaks down the science of stress, generational trauma, emotional regulation, and why “just pushing through” isn’t working.

You’ll learn:

• The 4 key areas of your brain trauma affects

• How anxious or avoidant attachment styles show up in your sales

• Practical ways to regulate your nervous system and feel grounded again

• Why healing trauma is the most powerful sales strategy no one’s teaching

She also shares her personal journey with somatic healing and how microdosing (yep, she goes there) helped her overcome deep trauma that traditional methods couldn't touch.

If you’re ready to stop self-sabotaging and finally feel peace while pursuing success — this one’s for you.

In this episode of Closing Deals in Heels, we’re unpacking something that doesn’t get talked about enough - the pressure women feel to prove themselves in male-dominated spaces, and what it really takes to rewrite that story with power, presence, and purpose.

Maddie Sells didn’t plan on going into sales. She was on the path to become a doctor - driven by a deep desire to help and heal. But somewhere along the way, she realized the system wasn’t the only way to make an impact. So she pivoted. Hard. And what followed was a full identity shift - from people-pleasing pre-med student, to ethical sales leader closing high-ticket deals while staying completely in integrity.

This episode is for the women who feel stuck between who they were told to be… and who they know they’re meant to become. Maddie opens up about the dark side of sales culture, how she rebuilt her confidence after manipulation and burnout, and why learning to trust herself was the skill that changed everything.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you belong in the room, whether you’re "too sensitive" for sales, or whether integrity and success can actually coexist - this one is for you. Because Maddie isn’t just building a name in this industry. She’s rewriting the rules.

It’s time we sell differently.

In this episode of Closing Deals in Heels, we’re diving into a transformation most people don’t talk about—the identity shift it takes to go from being “the good girl” who follows the rules to the woman who makes her own.

Lo Silver is no stranger to pressure. She played on the world’s biggest stage as a professional soccer player in the World Cup. But no one prepares you for what it’s like to leave behind the identity that once defined you. No one teaches you how to shift from team player to CEO, from structure to self-leadership, from waiting to be chosen… to choosing yourself.

This episode is for every woman who knows what it’s like to be high-performing on the outside, but still seeking permission on the inside. Lo shares how she reprogrammed the part of her that was trained to play by the rules and stepped into the version of herself that closes deals, leads powerfully, and builds wealth on her terms.

If you've ever felt stuck between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming—this is your episode. Because Lo’s story isn’t just about a career change. It’s about reclamation. And once you realize no one is coming to hand you your power—you start taking it back with every move you make.

This one is personal. Press play.
