  • Nervous System Resilience and the "Can't Lose" Mindset (Session 7 with Molly)

    Molly has had some very difficult personal circumstances occur since our last call and we start by naming and witnessing them and then deciding WTAF to do when life throws you some big curveballs that impact your business.

    We dig into nervous system resilience, what it means to treat your funnels and webinars as "can't lose" experiments, and what doing things last minute means for your business. From webinar slides, to detailed messaging specifics, to when it's actually okay to redirect a call, this episode is a reminder that business isn't about perfection but about perspective, iteration, and emotional flexibility.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • The "it doesn't make sense either way" moments every CEO faces • How to see webinars and funnels through a "can't lose" lens • The unlock to sustainable growth that isn't "just be chill all the time" • The truth about doing things 48 hours in advance • Detailed ways to keep people engaged during a webinar or training • Why it's okay to be picky as a coach (and how to model discernment for your clients) • When and how to pause or redirect a call without making it mean something's wrong

  • The Both/And of Business (Close-Up with Lacey)

    Business isn't black and white no matter how much we want it to be. It's full of nuance, paradox, and both/and moments. In this solo episode, I dig into the foundation of what makes coaching and strategy effective: the ability to hold multiple truths at once.

    From the realities of data and best practices, to the messy context of being human, leading, and navigating real external circumstances, and why the answers are rarely "all mindset" or "all strategy." This episode is about how to lean into nuance, use it to your advantage, and build a business that actually reflects your life, values, and vision.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why nuance is the most underrated (and most necessary) business skill • The traps of "all mindset" vs. "all strategy" approaches and how to avoid both extremes • What the real work of great coaching looks like when you hold multiple truths at once • How to use data and best practices without losing individuality or self-trust • Why sustainable success requires balancing both permission and responsibility (and how to do it) • Strategic ways to embrace "both/and" thinking in your business decisions

  • Change, Trust, and ManyChat (Session 6 with Molly)

    This session with Molly starts with processing all of the change she's feeling and what it looks like to intentionally coach someone through the question of "Am I just handling more or is it actually too much?" From there, we get into the renewal pricing shift I'm recommending, how to confidently go for more after burnout, and where ManyChat fits into her upcoming launch. It's a conversation about making the right shifts at the right time so you can find real clarity and consistent momentum again.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • The actual work of coaching that we should be leaning into the most • The thing that I think is making a *very* big impact on Molly that we need to name • The most important question you can ask yourself after healing from burnout • The hack that makes strategy more neutral and easier to run with • How to handle renewal pricing so it works for you, not against you • The way I'm recommending Molly strategically leverages ManyChat during her launch

  • Late Webinars, Best Practices, and Doing What Works for You (Session 5 with Molly)

    This session is such a great reminder that business is rarely black and white, but is actually full of nuance and "both/and" moments. From politics to freebies to frameworks that actually work, Molly & I dig into what it means to hold space for multiple truths at once.

    We also talk about the tendency women have to question our expertise, the power of problem awareness, and how to navigate seasons of business when you're shifting from coasting to pursuing more specific goals. We even get into the practical realities of leaning into best practices/strategy while still prioritizing your well-being.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • The "both/and" moments that come up in coaching conversations • Why women are so quick to question our own expertise (and what to do about it) • The #1 most valuable takeaway you can give someone • A webinar framework I recommend • How to use best practice strategy while still listening to yourself • How to make more challenging moments in business still feel good and sustainable • How to recalibrate from coasting to chasing bigger goals Episode Links

  • Priorities and Politics (Session 4 with Molly)

    This session takes us into the complexities of running a business while holding everything else life throws at us. From needing an income runway, to online pressure, to the weight of social and political news (and the pressure to talk about it online), we talk about the duality that CEOs carry daily. This is an honest, grounding conversation about permission, perspective, and creating a business that supports you (without taking too much from you).

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • When to break the "focus on one thing" rule in business • The magic of running a beta cohort live (and what to keep in mind to get the best results from it) • The non-negotiable skill all business owners (especially mothers) need for sustainable success • The thing Molly asks me that I truly believe there is no easy solution to • Navigating the growing pressure of online business and speaking to everything happening in our world • How hypervigilance shows up in these online conversations and how to manage that • Why social media isn't "light" anymore and how to protect your capacity while still showing up Episode Links

  • Building a Business That Bends Around You- Not the Other Way Around (Close-Up with Lacey)

    Too often we're told there's a "right" way to build a business, or a "right" version of ourselves we have to become in order to succeed. But the truth is, the most successful CEOs don't force themselves to fit into their business… they build a business that bends around them.

    In this solo episode, I share the five strategic shifts that allow you to design your business around your strengths, your life, and your season. We'll talk about what this looks like for Molly, why so many women already know what they need but don't give themselves permission to claim it, and how you can start creating a business, systems, and structures that scale with you and support you instead of drain you.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why the goal isn't to "fix yourself" (and what it actually is if you want to grow)
    • The difference between a team that drains you and one that makes everything feel lighter
    • The lie about systems that's keeping most entrepreneurs (especially women) stuck
    • The thing you have to decide or your business will decide for you
    • The hack for getting what you want now AND long-term

  • A Strategic Take on "Light Launching" (Session 3 with Molly)

    This session is about the moments where it feels like things have hit a wall... whether that's with team, with sales, or launches, and what happens when you keep solving instead of stopping there.

    Molly and I dive into what brings feelings of true relief in your business (and why those can tell us what needs to shift), how to match your strategy to the way your audience actually buys, and the patience required to run a "light launch" in a way that sets you up for long-term success. We also get specific about ads, conversions, and the exact questions you need to be asking to make sure you're solving the right problem in your business.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why hitting a wall in problem-solving can't be the stopping point and what to do next • The surprising sign that something needs to shift with your team (even if things seem "fine") • How knowing your audience's buying behavior shapes your sales strategy • What your sales page and email language need to feel seamless • The truth about "light launches" and why they still require strategy and patience • How to know whether you should be focused on leads or conversions right now • The critical ads questions every business owner needs to ask

  • What If the Problem Isn't Actually You? (Session 2 with Molly)

    This is an episode that is equal parts validating and practical. We go deep into the patterns that so many high-achieving women carry like hypervigilance, over-responsibility, and the constant sense that we should be able to "just handle it all". Sound familiar? Plus, we talk about what happens when we stop making ourselves the problem and actually diagnose what's really going on in our businesses.

    This session is ultimately about reclaiming your capacity and sanity by building systems that neutralize emotional triggers, leaning on your team more, and designing a business that works with your brain instead of against it. You'll hear the shifts Molly makes as we name what's been draining her and start creating the structures that will free her up to focus on what she does best. In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Molly's "oh I'm normal" moment (and why naming it matters) • Hypervigilance and its impact on high achievers • Seeing the upside of challenges like ADHD (and the insane results Molly had last year) • What it looks like to diagnose the real problem in business • How systems can and should create emotional neutrality • The hill I'll die on around team support & to do's • The first step to creating systems that actually work for your brain Episode Links
