How many times have you stopped yourself from doing something bold, creative, or life-changing—just because of what someone might think?

In this episode, LauraAura cuts right to the root of one of the most common (and frustrating) blocks women face: the fear of judgment. Whether it’s fear of being misunderstood, criticized, or just not accepted, worrying about what others think can paralyze even the most powerful ideas and intentions.

But here’s the truth—people are going to have opinions no matter what you do.

This episode is part reminder, part wake-up call, and 100% encouragement to reclaim your voice, your truth, and your power. Laura breaks down how to disconnect from the noise, ground into your why, and move forward unapologetically—because your potential matters way more than their opinions.

You’ll learn:

• Why caring what others think is a natural instinct—and how to move through it
  
  
• The powerful difference between being accepted for your truth vs. your compliance
  
  
• How to ground into your why and take action—even when it’s scary
  
  
• What to do when criticism hits (especially online)
  
  

This is your call to move anyway.

Because you’ve got far better things to do than play small to appease other people’s discomfort.

What if the secret to true success wasn’t about hustle, but about enoughness?

In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Racheal Cook—award-winning business strategist and founder of The CEO Collective—to talk about redefining success, escaping entrepreneurial poverty, and building a life-first business that actually supports you.

We explore how too many women are working tirelessly without seeing the return—in income, time, or energy—and why it’s time to stop chasing someone else’s definition of success. Racheal breaks down the five areas you must define for yourself before you build (or rebuild) your business, and shares the mindset shifts that help entrepreneurs create freedom without burning out.

This one’s a mic-drop moment for every woman who's ever wondered, “Is this all there is?”

What You'll Learn in This Episode:
✅ What entrepreneurial poverty really looks like—and how to escape it
✅ Why redefining success is the first step to building a business that works
✅ Racheal’s 5-part framework for designing a life-first business
✅ The difference between abundance and enoughness (and why it matters)
✅ How to stop buying into hustle culture and start honoring your true capacity
✅ Why slow mornings, creative hobbies, and sustainable income are the new markers of success

Ever wonder why you’re full of energy one day and totally drained the next—even when your schedule hasn’t changed? Spoiler: it’s not because you’re broken.

It’s your cycle.

In this episode, I walk you through what we were never taught about our periods and energy, and how understanding the four phases of your cycle can radically change the way you work, plan, and show up in your life.

I’m not a doctor—but I am a woman who’s been on a long-ass journey with hormonal chaos, chronic pain, and burnout. What I’ve discovered is a game-changing way to actually get more done with less effort… while caring for your body in the process.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to:

• Stop shaming yourself for not having the same energy every day
• Use each phase of your cycle (menstrual, follicular, ovulation, luteal) to your advantage
• Plan your work, workouts, and social life in alignment with your body
• Build compassion for yourself instead of pushing harder through pain or fatigue

When you stop fighting your flow, everything flows better—energy, creativity, productivity, you.

🎧 Tune in now to start working with your cycle instead of against it.
