Raw & Real with Clare Garner | With Women Who Are Doing The Damn Thing

In this episode of the Raw and Real Podcast, I’m sitting down with Lindsey Tague for an honest conversation about identity shifts, visibility, digital nomad life, nervous system regulation, entrepreneurship, community, and building a life by design.

We talk about what happens when the business or lifestyle that once fit you starts to evolve, and how to navigate the messy middle without losing yourself in the process. Lindsey shares what it really looks like to live as a digital nomad entrepreneur, the tension between freedom and stability, and the deeper questions that come up when you’re no longer willing to build your life around other people’s expectations.

We also get into fear of visibility, imposter syndrome, speaking up before you feel fully ready, and why confidence is often built through repetition, not certainty. This is a conversation about reinvention, self-trust, community, personal growth, and giving yourself permission to create a business and lifestyle that actually fits who you are now.

If you’ve been craving more freedom, feeling the pull to pivot, or navigating your own in-between season, this episode will land.

Inside this episode, we talk about:

• digital nomad life and what people don’t tell you

• identity shifts in business and life

• fear of visibility and nervous system work

• building community as an entrepreneur

• why movement matters more than niche

• creating a life by design instead of performing success

In this episode, I’m joined by Anna, a somatic practitioner and trauma-informed coach, who shares her raw journey from addiction, trauma, and recovery into building a purpose-led business.

But this isn’t just a conversation about healing.

It’s a real-time breakdown of what most coaches, healers, and service providers get wrong when they start building a business — especially when it comes to using a podcast as a platform.

We talk about:
– why passion alone doesn’t build a sustainable business
– the truth about “free” vs paid offers (and why free clients don’t always convert)
– how trauma, self-worth, and conditioning show up in your pricing and visibility
– why your podcast needs a movement, not just a message
– how to actually turn your voice into clients, cash, and momentum

If you’ve started a podcast (or you’re thinking about it) but it’s not bringing in clients yet… this episode will show you exactly what’s missing.

Because your podcast isn’t the problem.

The way it’s structured is.

Let’s build it properly.

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m doing something a little different.

This is a live podcast strategy session with Hayley Anderson-Richardson, where we unpack how her podcast can become the top of her funnel, strengthen her movement, and feed her whole business ecosystem.

Hayley works with female entrepreneurs to create more wealth, more freedom and more sustainability in business — not through burnout, hustle or overwork, but by combining strategy with the deeper nervous system and subconscious work that allows women to actually hold success when it arrives.

As we talk, it becomes clear that the real opportunity is bigger than just “starting a podcast.”

It’s about naming the movement.

It’s about building a brand people identify with.

And it’s about using a podcast as the platform that turns that movement into authority, community, clients and cash.

Together, we map out how her podcast can:

• anchor her movement

• build a paid community

• attract the right women into her world

• create a natural pathway into her mastermind and VIP offers

• and stop relying on scattered content or endless free trainings

This is exactly why I believe so strongly that a podcast should never just be “content.”

A podcast should be the authority platform behind your whole business.

The place your movement gets clearer.
The place your audience understands how you think.
The place your community gathers.
And the place your offers start converting more naturally.

This episode is a real-time example of the work I do inside my Podcast Ecosystem VIP Days — where we build the strategy, the movement and the backend structure that makes your podcast actually work for your business.

• how to monetize a podcast

• using a podcast as the top of your funnel

• building a movement around your message

• why community is the bridge between content and conversion

• how to create a business ecosystem behind your podcast

• the difference between visibility and authority

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m joined by Leanne Harris, founder of The Space Retreat, for a deeply honest conversation about what happens when the life that once felt secure no longer feels aligned.

Leanne shares her journey from running a successful property business for ten years into building a completely different kind of business — one rooted in wellness, community, healing and purpose.

What makes this conversation so powerful is that it speaks to something so many women feel but struggle to name:

The moment when financial safety is no longer enough.

The moment when your soul starts asking for more.
More meaning.
More creativity.
More fulfilment.
More truth.

We talk about the loneliness of building something new, the mirrors that entrepreneurship brings up, and the courage it takes to stop hiding behind the business and start sharing the story that actually drives it.

And as the conversation unfolds, something else becomes very clear:

Leanne’s work is bigger than a retreat space.

Because underneath the wellness business is a much deeper movement around type 1 diabetes, identity, wellness, mental load and what it really means to live beyond the label.

This is exactly why I care so much about podcasts.

Because a podcast is not just a content platform.

A podcast gives you a place to build authority around your story.
A place to shape your movement.
A place to gather your people.
A place to turn lived experience into real connection, community and clients.

When it’s built intentionally, a podcast becomes the engine behind the whole business ecosystem.

That’s what this conversation reveals so clearly.

It’s not just about launching a retreat brand.

It’s about building a voice-led movement around something that matters.

• leaving safety to build something more aligned

• entrepreneurship, loneliness and personal growth

• wellness, retreat spaces and community building

• type 1 diabetes and the hidden mental load behind the diagnosis

• identity beyond labels

• why a podcast can become the authority platform behind your movement

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m joined by Vinisha Rathod, founder of The Briefcase Effect, for a bold, honest conversation about women, power, business, safety, community and what it really means to build a movement that cuts through the noise.

Vinisha shares her journey from corporate into entrepreneurship, the story behind her iconic briefcase, and the deeper mission driving her work today — helping people build brands, businesses and communities that actually reflect who they are.

But this conversation quickly becomes about something much bigger.

We talk about what happens when women stop competing with each other and start building together.

We talk about sisterhood, survival, systems, the emotional labour women have carried for generations, and the need to create safer, healthier structures — not just in relationships, but in business, leadership and society as a whole.

Vinisha also shares the vision behind her newest project, a platform designed to support men through major life transitions and reduce male suicide through structure, connection and community.

And woven through all of it is this:

A podcast can become so much more than content.

When it’s built intentionally, a podcast becomes a movement platform.
A place to tell the truth.
A place to hold harder conversations.
A place to gather the right people.
A place where authority, community and business all start to connect.

That’s what I believe podcasting does at its best.

A podcast is not just visibility.

It’s voice.
It’s trust.
It’s positioning.
It’s the start of a much bigger ecosystem.

I also want to honour that this episode was recorded during a chapter of my life that has since shifted very quickly and very deeply. I’m not here to erase those chapters. I’m here to honour them as part of the real story.

And this conversation still feels deeply worth sharing.

• women, power and sisterhood

• entrepreneurship and personal branding

• building safer communities through business

• male suicide, loneliness and support systems

• why women need spaces that feel safe and real

• how a podcast can become a movement platform and authority builder

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m joined by Hannele Korhonen for a powerful conversation about intuition, identity, trust and what it means to build a business in a way that no longer fits the old paradigm.

Hannele shares her journey from corporate law into a much more intuitive, expansive and integrated way of working — blending business coaching, astrology, intuition and deep trust in a way that feels both grounded and visionary.

This conversation is really about what happens when you stop trying to fit yourself into one box.

When you stop separating the logical from the intuitive.
The strategic from the spiritual.
The professional from the deeply human.

We talk about what it means to build differently, to trust what you cannot yet fully see, and to create space for a new way of working and living to emerge.

And as the conversation unfolds, it also becomes a powerful reminder of what a podcast can do when it becomes more than content.

Because a podcast isn’t just a place to share ideas.

When it’s built intentionally, it becomes the platform that holds your voice, deepens your authority, gathers your community and feeds your business ecosystem.

Your podcast becomes the place where:

• your message expands
• your authority strengthens
• your people find you
• and your business starts to grow from a much deeper foundation

I also want to honour something here.

This episode was recorded during a chapter of my life that has changed very quickly and very deeply. Rather than pretending those moments didn’t happen, I’m choosing to honour them as part of the story. Raw & Real has never been about polished timelines. It’s about telling the truth of the journey as it unfolds.

And this conversation still holds so much truth.

• intuition in business
• identity shifts in entrepreneurship
• trusting the unseen
• astrology, spirituality and integrated leadership
• creating space for a new way of working
• how a podcast can become an authority platform for your business

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m joined by Kelly Harris for a real conversation about motherhood, entrepreneurship and what it actually looks like to build a business while raising children.

Kelly shares what life really looks like as a mum of four, a former kindergarten teacher turned entrepreneur, and a woman navigating identity, growth and building something meaningful alongside family life.

But this conversation quickly becomes about something bigger.

We talk about the mindset shifts that happen when you choose to build a different life — not just for yourself, but for the children watching you do it.

Because whether we realise it or not, our kids are always watching.

They’re watching how we handle risk.
They’re watching how we deal with failure.
They’re watching what we believe is possible.

And for many women building businesses today, that example matters just as much as the business itself.

As the conversation unfolds, we also dive into the role a podcast can play in building a movement-driven business.

Because a podcast isn’t just content.

When it’s built properly, it becomes the platform that gathers your community, amplifies your voice and feeds your entire business ecosystem.

Your podcast becomes the place where:

• your message deepens
• your authority grows
• your community gathers
• and your clients naturally find their way into your world

This episode is a powerful reminder that building a business isn’t just about strategy.

It’s about identity, courage and the ripple effect your voice can create.

• motherhood and entrepreneurship
• growth mindset vs fixed mindset
• raising children while building a business
• the power of storytelling in marketing
• building a movement around your message
• how a podcast can become the authority platform for your business

This is one of the most personal episodes I’ve ever recorded.

A few months ago I met someone in Egypt and experienced a love that felt rare, deep, and completely unexpected. For a short time we built something beautiful together and began planning a future.

But life doesn’t always unfold the way we imagine.

In this Raw & Real episode I share the truth behind what happened when family, culture, and circumstances outside of our control changed everything almost overnight.

This conversation isn’t about heartbreak alone.

It’s about what happens when life breaks your heart and you choose to keep showing up anyway.

I talk openly about love, loss, cultural differences, healing after an abusive relationship, and what it means to lead your life while you're still moving through pain.

Because the truth is…

We don’t wait until life is perfect to move forward.

Sometimes we lead while we’re healing.

And that’s exactly what Raw & Real has always been about.

If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who might need to hear it today.

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m joined by Stacy Perry, an intergenerational engagement advocate and nonprofit founder with a powerful mission: bringing generations together to preserve stories, wisdom and human connection.

But something unexpected happens in this conversation.

What begins as Stacy sharing her story quickly turns into a real-time strategy session about building a movement, creating authority and using a podcast as the engine behind a business.

We talk about:

• turning a mission into a movement
• why podcast guesting alone won’t build your authority
• the difference between content and ecosystem strategy
• how to structure your platform so it actually leads to sales
• why your podcast should become the centre of your business

This is the exact work I do with my clients — helping experts turn their voice into a movement, authority, clients and cash.

Because a podcast shouldn't just create content.

It should feed your entire business ecosystem.

If you’ve been thinking about starting a podcast or wondering why yours isn’t converting, this episode will shift how you think about podcasting entirely.

• Building a movement around your message
• Turning a podcast into a business ecosystem
• Why authority platforms matter more than content
• Intergenerational connection and preserving family stories
• Entrepreneurship and purpose-driven leadership
• Why courage is required to build something meaningful

If you're ready to turn your voice into authority and build the ecosystem behind your message, this is exactly what we build together in my Podcast Ecosystem VIP Days.

In this episode of the Raw & Real Podcast, I’m joined by one of my soul sisters, embodiment guide and tantrika Desiree Uzzell.

This conversation is exactly what Raw & Real was created for — honest, unscripted conversations about the real journey of becoming who we’re meant to be.

Desiree and I dive into sisterhood, embodiment, feminine healing and what it really means to be witnessed by another woman in a way that changes you.

We talk about identity shifts in business, body-led healing, generational trauma, divine union and the power of being surrounded by women who see your truth even when you can’t see it yourself.

Desiree’s work sits at the intersection of embodiment, tantra, multi-generational healing and relational alchemy, and this conversation is a beautiful reflection of how our friendship has evolved alongside our personal and business journeys.

I also want to share something openly here.

This episode was recorded during a very different chapter of my life. Since recording, a lot has shifted for me personally. Rather than hiding from parts of my story, I choose to honour them. Every chapter — even the ones that change — is part of the journey that shaped the woman and the work you see today.

And that’s exactly what Raw & Real is about.

If you feel called into deeper sisterhood work after listening to this conversation, Desiree, Camilla and I will be hosting a powerful Sisterhood Immersion Retreat in Sedona, Arizona this October.

And if you’re a coach, speaker, author or expert who feels like your voice should be doing more for your business, my Podcast Ecosystem VIP Day is where we build the authority ecosystem behind your voice so your podcast actually feeds your business.

• Embodiment and body-led healing
• Healing feminine and sisterhood wounds
• Being truly seen and witnessed by other women
• Identity shifts in entrepreneurship
• Generational trauma and relational alchemy
• Reconnecting with your body after trauma
• The power of sisterhood in transformation

If you love real conversations about embodiment, feminine leadership, healing, entrepreneurship and building authority through your voice, make sure you follow the Raw & Real Podcast.
