138 | The Science of Stillness: The Daily Practice That Helps Leaders Stay Calm Under Pressure

136 | The Real Reason Six Figure Entrepreneurs Feel Stuck, Exhausted, and Overwhelmed
Most entrepreneurs can list dozens of reasons they feel overwhelmed—clients, deadlines, team management, family responsibilities, and the constant pressure to keep everything moving forward. But what if the real problem isn't your workload? In this episode, Lisa challenges a belief many high achievers have accepted as normal: that burnout, overwhelm, and chronic stress are simply the price of success. She explains how an overactive nervous system can quietly affect decision-making, creativity, focus, and business performance long before it shows up as a health diagnosis. Lisa breaks down the difference between acute and chronic stress, why "healthy enough" may not be enough for ambitious goals, and how stress can become the hidden bottleneck keeping entrepreneurs stuck. You'll also hear why she believes optimal health is a competitive advantage and the two foundational practices she recommends for regulating the nervous system and improving performance. If you've been pushing through exhaustion, struggling to focus, or wondering why success feels harder than it should, this conversation offers a different lens to consider. 💫GOLD HANDLE CLUB: Imperfect Founders Edition If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or avoiding what you know needs to happen, this is your next step.

135 | When People Show You Who YOU Are… Believe Them
When Maya Angelou said, “When people show you who they are, believe them,” she was encouraging us to pay attention to the evidence right in front of us. In this episode, Lisa offers a different perspective: When people show you who YOU are, believe them. Join Lisa and Coach Kiwi as they reflect on the lessons, conversations, and unexpected moments that revealed something deeper than community. This conversation is about leadership, healing, identity, and what the people around you may be reflecting back to you. Lisa shares why your community often reveals the work you have done on yourself, what it means to become “the top of the bottom,” and how honoring the sacrifices others made for you requires more than gratitude. It requires obedience. If you have ever questioned your purpose, underestimated your influence, or forgotten how far others went to help you get here, this episode will challenge you to see yourself differently and move accordingly. 💫GOLD HANDLE CLUB: Imperfect Founders Edition If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or avoiding what you know needs to happen, this is your next step.
