42: When Your Soul Wants More Than Safety: With Leanne Harris

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 alignedentrepreneurship, loneliness and personal growthwellness, retreat spaces and community buildingtype 1 diabetes and the hidden mental load behind the diagnosisidentity beyond labelswhy a podcast can become the authority platform behind your movementIf you’re ready to build a podcast that creates authority, community and clients, this is exactly what we do inside my Podcast Ecosystem VIP Days.Reply VIP or message me on Instagram for the details.
