The Kathlyn Hart Show | Inspiring Interviews with Badass Women About the Journey from Dreaming to Doing

Hey, hey, hey! We are back with the second episode under our brand spanking new podcast name, and I couldn't be more excited!

Today we are sitting down with the amazing Baily Hancock.  Baily and I met while speaking at the same event in Los Angeles, and I knew instantly after hearing her presentation that we needed to be friends.

Not only is she just an all-around kind human being, but she is also a badass Collaboration Consultant, Speaker, and Podcast Host.

In today's interview we go way back to the beginning of her journey when at 25, she split with her ex-husband, sold her house, got rid of everything that wouldn't fit in her Honda Fit, and drove from Flordia to California.

What happened when she got to the sunshine state, and how did she find her way as a career and businesswoman? Tune into this week's episode to find out!

Hello, hello!  Kathlyn Hart here.  I'm so excited to be back and bringing you a fresh new podcast episode. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

As you may have noticed already we are now operating under a brand spanking new name (goodbye The Big Leap Show, you have served us well). 

This decision was actually something that I was terrified to make for the longest time.  That's why in this week's episode, I wanted to share with you the fears behind making the change and what inspired me to move through the fear anyway. 

I hope after listening to this episode you feel a bit more inspired and courageous to go out there and take action towards your big audacious dreams as well 💕

Ever feel like you have your whole life and career figured out, only to reach a plateau and wonder, "Is this all there is?"  As counter-intuitive as it may sound, this feeling may be a sign of success, a sign that you are ready for your next pivot.

Say what?!  Yes mama yes.

But how do you move from discouraged to daring?  Tune into this week's interview with motivational speaker, teacher, and author Jenny Blake to find out.

We all know the dread of showing up for a job we hate. Pulling into a dimly lit parking lot, wishing we could turn around, and sitting in our cars a fewww extra minutes to avoid walking into that golden prison.

For this week's guest, Robyn Sue Fisher of Smitten Ice Cream, the idea of being stuck and settled was something she could no longer live with. Instead she made vow to herself to make this whole "adulting" thing fun.

But how did she go from one small vow to inventing the first single-serve ice cream machine that runs on liquid nitrogen and expanding from a one-woman wagon cart to a 10 stores across California?  Tune into this week's interview to find out!

What is failure really, and how can we evolve from what we think it is?

In this episode I sit down with Betsy Crouch and Zoe Galvez of Improv HQ - two women on a mission to empower business leaders and their employees work better together through the art of improv.

Hello, hello! A few weeks ago I made the big announcement about the future of the podcast.  Although it was a difficult announcement to make, I felt I had finally worked up the courage to share it with you all.

Then fear really set in.

"Are you sure you want to be doing this, was that a huge mistake, do you really want to pursue workshops full time, why would you let go of something that is good..."

In this week's episode, I get real and honest with you all about how I was using "confusion" to help me avoid taking action.  If you've ever felt stuck in this place tune in so that you know you are truly not alone and hear the quote that ignited me into action.

What's more badass than a woman that knows what she wants?  A woman that asks for it. 

This week I'm excited to kick off the new year with She Negotiates consultant Jamie Lee.  Jamie is a pragmatic negotiation geek dedicated to helping women catapult their careers to the next level with a gutsy ask through consulting and speaking.

I first came across Jamie during a She Negotiates webinar.  After connecting on our love of empowering women to be bold, brave, and get better paid, Jamie made the "ask" and proposed being a guest on the show.  Her courage and enthusiasm made me confident this was one woman I had to talk more with, and boy am I glad I did.

In this week's episode, Jamie shares with us not only her personal journey and various career leaps but also tips for how you can confidently stand in your power and make the ask for a better salary in the new year!

Hey, hey, hey.  Well ladies, it's been a hot minute since we last talked.

Like many of you, the U.S. presidential results stirred up a lot of emotions around women's rights and the importance of female empowerment.  I didn't expect for it to overcome me the way that it did, but here we are two months later and I finally feel ready to crawl out of my cave.

This has been a challenging time for me dealing with feelings of helplessness around how we can create a more loving and understanding world, feelings of guilt for suddenly stopping this podcast, and feelings of confusion around how I should focus my energy next so that I can best serve the world.

In this week's solo show, I want to share with you what I've been going through these past two months, the future of this podcast, and where I'm headed in 2017.

What happens when a J-O-B isn't exactly necessary for you to keep a roof over your head? Would you go for your dreams? Hit the ground running like a pro and make it happen?

I think we all like to assume we would... But what about that nasty bugger named fear we all know so well? Even with greater financial freedom, fear doesn't suddenly disappear.

So what's a boss babe to do?

Tune into this week's guest with Jenni Brown of Prim'd Marketing to hear how she found the courage within to become a writer when hiding behind fear was longer an option.
