This week, I’m pulling back the curtain and talking about something everyone feels but rarely admits: growing in public is deeply uncomfortable. Pivoting. Shifting. Rebuilding. It all feels messy—and kind of embarrassing. But it’s also the fastest way to get where you’re going.

In this raw reset, I’m sharing why I’m scaling The Elevated Edit to one intentional episode a week and what that move says about real commitment, not just performative consistency. If you’ve been spinning, pivoting, or feeling exposed as you grow… this one’s for you.

Inside this episode:

• The decision to cut back to one episode per week
• Why public pivots feel messy (but are strategic)
• My behind-the-scenes Q3 reset and new priorities
• How this podcast changed me more than anyone
• The myth of “sticking to one thing”
• The shift from hustle to high-impact intention
• 3 power moves to embrace if you're in the messy middle

Power Moves for This Season:

1. Audit your efforts. Are your actions moving the needle or just making you look consistent?
2. Own the pivot. Looking scattered doesn’t mean you’re ungrounded. Strategy evolves.
3. Commit with courage. Long-term vision requires uncomfortable adaptation.

Let’s keep evolving together.

Episodes now drop every Tuesday at 7am CST. Share this one with a friend who’s growing through the awkward phase—and remember, the pivots are part of the process.

Ready to stop winging your quarter and actually protect your priorities?

In this short and powerful episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I’m prepping for Q3 during a brand trip to Harrison, Arkansas—and why your “No List” might be the most profitable thing you create all quarter.

Forget the massive goal dumps and mile-long to-do lists. I’m showing you how to create a quarterly roadmap rooted in clarity, energy, and execution. This is the CEO reset you didn’t know you needed.

In this episode, I share:

• Why saying yes in the moment can sabotage your momentum
• The three questions I ask every quarter to calibrate my focus
• What’s going on my No List (and how it’s fueling growth)
• How I pre-plan my outfits, travel, and training to eliminate chaos
• Why guilt-free boundaries are your secret weapon this season

Power Moves:

• Give yourself a few intentional hours to map Q3
• Write a “This Doesn’t Align” list—and stand by it
• Prep your aesthetics, logistics, and mindset tools now so you can execute later

This year, I’ve spent over $56,000 on coaching, masterminds, and mentorships.

It made zero sense when I did it. The payoff? Didn’t show up for months. And honestly—it got worse before it got better.

But I’m finally seeing the fruit. And I want to tell you the real story of what happens when you invest before you feel ready, before it feels safe, and before the return is clear.

Inside this episode, I’m sharing:

• The moment I cried in the shower and knew I had to do it anyway
• How being in the right rooms rewired my entire identity
• Why I felt like a total failure for 4 months—and kept showing up
• The difference between tactical ROI and internal transformation
• How I’m already planning Q4 and 2026 from a new standard of leadership

Here’s what I know now:

You can’t shortcut confidence. You can’t shortcut belief. You can’t shortcut skill.

But you can collapse time by getting in the room with women who are ahead of you.

If you’ve been circling an investment or doubting the one you already made—this one’s for you.

Power Moves:

• Proximity > perfection
• Energy > tactics
• Identity alignment > online hype

If you’re intimidated by AI or unsure how to actually use it in your business, this episode will shift everything.

I’m walking you through exactly how I’m using AI as a coach and real estate agent—from building custom GPTs to running automations that save hours per week. You’ll hear what tools are worth it, where I draw the line, and how I make sure my content and connection still feel deeply human.

Inside this episode:

• The mindset shift that unlocked real AI results for me
• Tools I use daily (and how I built BlakleeBot™)
• How I automated my listing system for real estate
• What I never let AI touch in my business
• Why execution > endless ideas when using AI

If you’re ready to work smarter without losing your magic—this one’s for you.

You’re putting in the work. You’re showing up. You’re doing “all the right things.”

But it still feels like nothing’s happening.

In this quick power episode, Blaklee drops the reminder every ambitious woman needs: success takes longer than you think, and most people quit right before it starts working. She shares personal stories from real estate, podcasting, and business coaching to pull back the curtain on what the behind-the-scenes actually looks like—and why the boring reps are where the magic really begins.

Whether you're frustrated with the algorithm, exhausted by your own effort, or just need a little push to stay the course, this episode will meet you in the moment—and get you back in the game.

In this episode:

• The snowball analogy that will shift how you view momentum
• Why your consistency is working (even if it doesn’t look like it)
• What most people do at month 3 that guarantees they’ll never win
• A raw behind-the-scenes story of recording this episode under the covers (literally)
• Why starting a podcast might be the best consistency hack on the planet

Power Move:

Don’t compare her highlight reel to your Day 47. Go back to her Day 1. Recommit. And keep pushing the snowball.

If your business moves feel safe, familiar, and vaguely exhausting… you might be playing not to lose.

And here’s the kicker: playing not to lose still makes you lose.

In this episode of The Elevated Edit, Blaklee unpacks the game-changing mindset shift inspired by Playing to Win by Lafley & Martin—and how most entrepreneurs are unintentionally building their business to avoid failure instead of chasing bold success.

You’ll learn:

• The real difference between playing to win vs. playing not to lose
• Five filters to audit your business strategy: offers, pricing, delivery, content, and structure
• Why overdelivering, underpricing, and playing it safe are keeping you stuck
• A challenge to help you make one bold CEO-level move this week

Power Moves:

• Choose one area of your business this week—offer, pricing, client delivery, content, or structure—and make the decision a winner would make.
• Shift your lens: Where are you reacting from fear instead of acting from strategy?

Welcome back to The Elevated Edit, where we don’t just talk strategy—we talk sustainability. If you’ve ever felt like you were doing all the things but still couldn’t find your flow, this episode is the reset your nervous system didn’t know it needed.

I’m sharing the exact moment I realized I was sabotaging my own success—not because I lacked discipline, but because my body didn’t feel safe. From high-stress real estate calls on vacation to the pressure of being “on” 24/7, this is the behind-the-scenes truth about why regulation isn’t just for meditation retreats—it’s your most powerful business tool.

In this episode:

• The real reason that one text sent you into a spiral
• Fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—decoded for modern entrepreneurs
• How your “personality quirks” might actually be nervous system responses
• A 3-question self-check that will change how you operate this week
• Why regulating your nervous system will be your #1 business flex in the AI era

Power Move:

Start asking: Does my body feel safe succeeding? Because if it doesn’t… it will fight you every step of the way.

If you end your workday still thinking about what you didn’t finish—and wake up already overwhelmed by what you forgot—you’re not inconsistent. You’re just mentally overloaded.

In this episode of The Elevated Edit™, Blaklee dives into the psychology and physiology of incomplete loops, cognitive residue, and the real reason your business feels heavier than it should. Drawing from the Zeigarnik Effect (with a side of waiter nostalgia), she breaks down why your shutdown routine isn’t a cute productivity tip—it’s a business growth necessity.

You’ll walk away from this episode with both a wake-up call and a solution. Because you don’t need more motivation. You need a system that tells your brain: we’re done for today.

What’s inside:

• How your brain subconsciously keeps “orders” open like an unpaid tab
• Why most productivity advice fails (hint: it starts in the wrong place)
• What scattered systems and procrastination are really trying to tell you
• How incomplete loops keep your nervous system in fight-or-flight
• The science behind creativity blocks and burnout—and how to fix it
• A behind-the-scenes look at Hot Girl Shutdown™, Blaklee’s 2-week ritual reset designed to help you log off like a legend
