  • Why Social Feels Harder Right Now (and How to Shift It) (Close-Up with Lacey)

    In this solo episode, I break down why social might feel heavier right now and more importantly, how to respond. We have to be willing to treat social like a skill we can actually master instead of a mystery you're either "good at" or not. This is about getting intentional so social feels easier, not because it doesn't take effort but because the effort actually pays off.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • How this impacts you no matter your stage of business

    • My own experience with social feeling "harder" and what that's looked like for me

    • The thing that makes content creation dramatically easier

    • Why focusing on the right metrics changes everything

    • What happens when you actually study your best-performing content

    • Something you already have that will make your growth so much faster

  • You Can't Fast Forward the Basics (Session 3 with Sari)

    In this session, Sari and I talk about what shifts when clarity increases and why so much of growth is about committing to the basics instead of trying to skip ahead.

    We dig into metrics, prioritization, client journey, and what actually moves the needle. This conversation is about discernment, knowing what matters most right now, being willing to study what's not working, and remembering that no one gets to fast-forward foundational skills.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • The thing that makes social feel dramatically easier

    • Why followers might not be the most important metric anymore

    • The CEO skill you need to be building NOW

    • The art of studying underperforming content

    • How to think about client journey and lifetime value related to pricing

    • The type of product that I think massively supports growth

  • Priorities, Perspective, and the Bigger Picture (Session 2 with Sari)

    There's something powerful about the beginning of coaching, especially when you let yourself get it all out. In this session, Sari and I start by clearing the noise, because sometimes the most important thing isn't solving the problem immediately, it's making space for what's sitting in your brain and body.

    We talk about how often the "big problem" isn't what we think it is, why social media can feel heavier than we admit, and how priorities have to be considered in context. From client journey timelines to identity work, this episode is about zooming out far enough to see what truly gets you the results you want.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • The question that reveals if you're solving the right problem

    • How business challenges are often more nuanced than they first appear

    • The cost of relying entirely on social as your marketing channel

    • How to evaluate every "yes" against your bigger priorities

    • How client journey timelines shape marketing and incentives

    • Why stepping into the identity of a business owner is deeper work than we think

  • Separating Your Marketing From Your Work (Session 1 with Sari)

    This session is such an important reminder that knowing your work and struggling with your message are two very different things. So many brilliant business owners deeply understand what they do, but get tangled in how to talk about it. And that's what this episode is about.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why knowing your work but struggling with your message is actually the easier problem to solve

    • How "yeah, but…" thinking can quietly sabotage your messaging

    • Why the real message comes first and strategy comes second (and what this actually looks like)

    • What it means to separate marketing from the actual work you deliver

    • How to use your feed vs. your stories

    • The #1 piece of advice I'd give any business owner who is struggling with their marketing

  • Team Sh*t (Close-Up with Lacey)

    At a certain point in business, team and leadership become most of the game and navigating that well takes a level of emotional intelligence we don't talk about nearly enough.

    In this bonus solo episode, I'm sharing what I see matter most when it comes to running a team, the patterns that either create ease or drain you over time. We talk about ownership, communication, decision making, and why context matters as much as execution. This is a deep dive into what it actually takes to lead people well as your business grows.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • The core work required to scale at a certain stage of business

    • The difference between clear ownership and shared responsibility

    • Why constant communication is draining you and how to fix it

    • The #1 thing most CEOs need to reduce bottlenecks and burnout

    • Why visible work is an incredibly important hack that we don't talk about enough

    • How to honor human context, not just task completion

  • Leading at the Level of the Business You Have (Session 16 with Molly)

    This session is such a real look at how decision fatigue sneaks in as businesses grow especially when you're still operating like you're at $5k months instead of honoring the size and maturity of the business you're actually running. Molly and I talk about what happens when you stay too involved for too long, how that drains your capacity, and why knowing when to step in matters just as much as knowing how.

    We also dig into client relationships, expectations, and the reality that you can't protect people from a changing landscape. This episode is about leadership that makes everything easier, not heavier.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • How decision fatigue shows up when you aren't leading at the right level

    • How to know when it's actually time to step in with your team

    • The way I'm recommending Molly do a level-set with her clients

    • Why you can't (and shouldn't) protect clients from a changing landscape

    • The thing that strengthen client results the most that we have to stop avoiding

    • The one thing that makes everything easier with team and clients (that most people don't do)

  • Container Setting & Client Results (Close-Up with Lacey)

    A thread we keep coming back to this season is container setting. Meaning, how we design our offers, how we know if it's working, how we support results, and how we make sure the experience feels good for the client and the coach. In this solo episode, I'm pulling all of those conversations together and going deeper into what actually creates strong client results without burning yourself out in the process.

    This episode is about holding the both/and of results and boundaries, responsibility and relationship, support and simplicity. Because the best containers get results, and they also get you the life and business you desire.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why container setting is foundational to client results

    • The thing that will do MOST of the heavy lifting in your programs (if you let it)

    • What client responsibility really means and how we need to define it

    • What holding your own self boundaries actually looks like in practice

    • The most essential element for a great client experiences

    • How to create feedback loops that build trust instead of spirals
