Raw and Real: The Unfiltered Podcast for Women Who Scale with Clare Garner

What if the reason your business isn’t working… is because you’ve spent too long trying to do it someone else’s way?In this episode of Raw & Real, I sit down with artist, podcaster, writer and somatic coach Clenda Sabrina Lahr for a conversation that felt like looking into a mirror. From crystal businesses and coaching pivots to burnout, nervous system healing and finding our way back to ourselves, this episode is for every entrepreneur who has ever felt lost in the noise of the online world.We dive into the pressure of constantly chasing success, the obsession with timelines, the belief that everyone else knows better than you, and what happens when you finally stop trying to fit into someone else’s box.We talk about:✨ Burnout and losing yourself in online business✨ Why nervous system regulation changes everything✨ The difference between resistance, fear and genuine rest✨ Learning to trust your own inner compass✨ Letting go of rigid goals and following the pull instead✨ Why freedom is the real goal (not the milestone)✨ The pressure entrepreneurs place on themselves to "make it"✨ How creativity, artistry and authenticity can become your greatest assets✨ What it really means to do it the fuck your wayThis conversation is a reminder that success isn't found in another strategy, another course or another guru.It's found when you stop abandoning yourself.If you've been feeling burnt out, disconnected, frustrated or questioning your path, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.🎧 Listen now and let us know your biggest takeaway.And if this episode resonates, please take 30 seconds to follow the show, leave a review and share it with someone who needs the reminder that there is no destination... only the journey.Connect with Clare:Instagram: @claregarnerofficial

What happens when you're the woman who can do it all...But secretly, you're exhausted from carrying it all?In this episode of Raw & Real, I sit down with entrepreneur, real estate leader, podcaster and soon-to-be author Mackenzie Shelton for a powerful conversation about motherhood, burnout, ambition, faith, resilience and the pressure so many women place on themselves to be everything to everyone.Because let's be honest...So many high-achieving women are building successful businesses, leading teams, raising families and holding everything together on the outside...While feeling completely overwhelmed on the inside.Together we dive into:✨ Motherhood and entrepreneurship✨ Burnout in high-achieving women✨ Why successful women struggle to ask for help✨ The pressure of trying to "do it all"✨ Building systems that create more peace and less chaos✨ Faith, surrender and letting go of control✨ Resilience, nervous system regulation and emotional wellbeing✨ Stepmotherhood, parenting and identity✨ Why hustle culture isn't the answer✨ Creating a life that feels successful and sustainableMackenzie shares her journey from building a thriving real estate business and raising four children to answering a much deeper calling: helping women stop living in survival mode and start creating lives that feel calmer, more aligned and more fulfilling.We also talk about something I know so many women will resonate with:The belief that if we just work harder...If we just try more...If we just become better...Then everything will finally feel easier.Except that's rarely how it works.Because burnout isn't usually caused by doing too little.It's often caused by trying to carry far more than we were ever meant to carry alone.This conversation is a reminder that success doesn't have to come at the expense of your peace.And that building a beautiful life isn't about doing more.Sometimes it's about letting go of what was never yours to hold in the first place.🎧 Listen now and then come and tell me:What's one thing you're carrying right now that you're ready to put down?Send me a DM on Instagram @claregarnerofficial — I read every message personally and I'd love to hear your biggest takeaway from this conversation.

What if the thing you've been told is essential for growing your business... is actually the thing keeping you stuck?In this episode of Raw & Real, I'm joined by ADHD marketing and sales mentor Polly, and we dive into a conversation that completely challenges the narrative most entrepreneurs have been sold about business growth, visibility and social media.Because here's the truth:More content doesn't automatically create more clients.More followers don't automatically create more freedom.And being constantly online doesn't automatically create a sustainable business.Together we explore what happens when you stop building your business around algorithms and start building it around alignment, strategy, trust and real human connection.We talk about:✨ Why Polly completely stepped away from social media✨ The hidden addiction many entrepreneurs have to Instagram✨ Building a business without relying on content creation✨ ADHD entrepreneurship and creating a business that works for your brain✨ Freedom-based business models✨ Why social media isn't the only way to generate leads and sales✨ The difference between visibility and authority✨ Marketing strategies beyond Instagram✨ Building trust in an increasingly sceptical online world✨ Why so many business owners feel trapped by the very business they've createdWe also dive into something that has been a huge theme in my own life recently:Freedom.Not freedom as a buzzword.Not freedom as a marketing slogan.But real freedom.The freedom to travel.The freedom to relocate.The freedom to spend your time how you choose.The freedom to build a business that supports your life instead of consuming it.Because if your business relies on you constantly posting, constantly creating and constantly being online...Is it really freedom?This is a conversation about questioning the rules, trusting yourself, creating success on your own terms and remembering that there is never only one way to build a business.If you've been feeling burnt out by social media, exhausted by content creation, or questioning whether there might be another way, this episode is your permission slip to explore what that could look like.🎧 Listen now and then come and tell me:If social media disappeared tomorrow...How would your business grow?Send me a DM on Instagram @claregarnerofficial and tell me your answer. I read every message personally and I'd love to hear what this conversation sparks for you.

What if the life you've been told to want... isn't actually the life you want at all?In this episode of Raw & Real, I sit down with entrepreneur, author and world-schooling mum Amanda Furgiuele for a conversation about freedom, entrepreneurship, motherhood, travel, and creating a life that genuinely feels aligned.Amanda shares how she sold everything, moved across the world with her son, built businesses that don't rely on her being in one place, and created a lifestyle most people only ever dream about.But this isn't just a conversation about travel.It's a conversation about choosing your own path.About questioning the rules.About refusing to settle for a life that looks good on paper but feels completely wrong in your soul.Together we dive into:✨ Building a location-independent business✨ Entrepreneurship and freedom-based living✨ Homeschooling vs world-schooling✨ Raising children outside traditional systems✨ Creating a business that supports your lifestyle (not the other way around)✨ The power of in-person events, retreats and real-life connections✨ Collaboration vs competition in business✨ Trusting your intuition when life no longer feels aligned✨ Why so many entrepreneurs feel trapped after creating success✨ Redefining what "normal" looks likeWe also talk about something that has been deeply present in my own life recently:The difference between existing and truly living.Because there comes a point where you realise you're no longer willing to wait.No longer willing to postpone the life you want.No longer willing to build a business that keeps you stuck in one place.This episode is your permission slip to think bigger, dream wider, question everything, and create a life that actually feels like yours.If you've ever felt the pull towards more freedom, more travel, more adventure, more alignment, or simply a different way of living and working, this conversation is for you.🎧 Listen now and then come and tell me:If there were no rules, no expectations and no limitations...What would your life actually look like?Send me a DM on Instagram @claregarnerofficial — I read every message personally and I'd love to hear what this episode unlocks for you.

Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt like you were back in the school playground?Because same.In this raw, unfiltered conversation with Bex, we dive into something that affects far more female entrepreneurs than people realise: bullying, rejection, exclusion, sisterhood wounds, and the subconscious stories we carry into adulthood and business.We explore how childhood experiences shape the way we show up as women, leaders, business owners, partners and friends—and why so many successful women are still carrying the belief that they're "not chosen", "not liked" or somehow not enough.Together we unpack:✨ How bullying impacts confidence and visibility in business✨ The hidden connection between childhood rejection and self-sabotage✨ Why female friendships can feel so triggering✨ The "best friend wound" many women don't realise they're carrying✨ How sisterhood wounds show up in entrepreneurship✨ Dealing with trolls, criticism and online bullying✨ Why hurt people hurt people✨ The healing power of self-awareness and emotional resilience✨ Learning to stop making other people's behaviour mean something about you✨ How to protect your peace without closing your heartThis isn't a conversation about becoming fearless.It's a conversation about becoming free.Free from the stories.Free from the patterns.Free from the wounds that have been quietly running the show for years.If you've ever felt excluded, rejected, overlooked, bullied, criticised or like you never quite belonged, this episode will hit home.🎧 Listen now and send me a DM on Instagram @claregarnerofficial with your biggest takeaway. I read every message personally and I'd love to hear what resonated most with you.

Building a business changes you.Not just your bank account.Not just your confidence.You.The way you think.The way you trust yourself.The way you make decisions.The way you see what actually matters.And I think that’s the piece people don’t talk about enough.In this episode of Raw & Real, I’m joined by therapist, entrepreneur and founder April Thorndyke for one of those conversations that starts in one place… and ends somewhere completely different.We talk about building purpose-led businesses.Leaving behind versions of ourselves that no longer fit.The reality of entrepreneurship.Mental health.Human connection.Growth.Identity.And learning to trust yourself enough to stop forcing life into boxes you’ve outgrown. April shares her journey from personal training into mental health, opening therapy practices across multiple states, building a team and creating something rooted in genuine impact rather than simply growth for growth’s sake. We also dive into:✨ Entrepreneur mindset and founder growth✨ Building purpose-led businesses✨ Personal branding and becoming known for what you stand for✨ Human connection in business growth✨ Mental health and entrepreneurship✨ Speaking, visibility and building movements✨ Why business growth often starts with personal growth✨ Trusting the next step without needing the full plan✨ Identity shifts as entrepreneurs evolve✨ Building businesses that align with your actual life rather than consume it One of my favourite moments from this conversation was talking about movements.Not what you do.Not your offer.Not your service.What you stand for.Because people connect to belief.Identity.Mission.And when you build from there…Everything changes. If you’re currently building something…Pivoting.Expanding.Starting again.Questioning things.Or becoming a completely different version of yourself whilst trying to build a business alongside it…This one is for you ❤️🎧 Tune in now.And if this lands with you, screenshot the episode, tag me @claregarnerofficial and let me know your biggest takeaway 🤍#EntrepreneurPodcast #WomenInBusiness #FounderJourney #MentalHealthPodcast #PurposeLedBusiness #PersonalBranding #BusinessGrowth #EntrepreneurMindset #FemaleFounder #MindsetShift #MentalHealthAwareness #WomenWhoLead #BusinessPodcast #PersonalGrowth #SpeakingOpportunities #FounderLife #GrowthMindset #EntrepreneurLife #PurposeDrivenBusiness #LeadershipGrowth

I think one of the hardest parts about building a business isn’t strategy.It isn’t social media.It isn’t even growth.It’s learning to trust yourself again.In this episode of Raw & Real, I sit down with Toni Addinall for one of those conversations that goes far deeper than business strategy.We talk about leaving corporate careers.Walking away from things that no longer align.Starting again.Building purpose-led businesses.Learning to stop forcing yourself into boxes that were never built for you in the first place.Toni shares what happened when after a 24-year career she had a moment she simply couldn’t ignore anymore.A voice telling her:"You need to do this yourself."What followed wasn’t overnight success.It was uncertainty.Identity shifts.Trying things.Getting things wrong.Figuring out what actually fit.And honestly… I think so many people are going to hear themselves in this conversation.We also dive into:✨ Founder identity shifts and entrepreneurship✨ Leaving corporate and building purpose-led businesses✨ Why alignment matters more than doing what you ‘should’ do✨ Self-trust in business and entrepreneurship✨ Building support systems instead of doing everything yourself✨ Masculine structure and feminine expression in business✨ Why business owners struggle to let go and delegate✨ Finding your movement and becoming known for something bigger than what you sell✨ Building businesses that support your life rather than consume itOne of my favourite parts of this conversation was talking about the difference between building a business around pressure…Versus building one around alignment.Because honestly?There gets to be another way.A way that feels lighter.Cleaner.More sustainable.More you.If you’ve ever felt like you’re building something successful whilst simultaneously feeling disconnected from yourself…This episode is for you ❤️🎧 Tune in now.And if this lands for you, screenshot the episode, tag me @claregarnerofficial and tell me your biggest takeaway.And honestly…If you’re currently in that weird messy middle where you know something needs to change but you can’t quite see what yet…Trust yourself.The next step usually appears before the whole staircase 🤍

Honestly… I think far too many business owners are building on borrowed land. More posting.More social media.More content.More visibility.More trying to stay ‘consistent’.And then wondering why business still feels harder than it should.In this episode of Raw & Real, I sit down with decluttering specialist and organising philosopher Janine McDonald for what started as a conversation around home organisation… and very quickly became a much bigger conversation around business growth, authority, visibility and why so many entrepreneurs are focusing on the wrong things. We talk about:✨ The connection between your environment and mental wellbeing✨ Decision paralysis and why overwhelm keeps people stuck✨ Building a business around purpose and passion✨ Visibility vs authority and why they are NOT the same thing✨ Why social media isn’t always the growth strategy people think it is✨ Podcasting as a business ecosystem rather than ‘just content’✨ Why guesting on platforms without building your own can keep you invisible✨ Building movements, positioning and becoming known for something bigger than what you sell✨ Creating freedom through business strategy and authority building Because honestly?You are not here to become a full-time content creator.You are not here to spend your life throwing spaghetti at the wall hoping something sticks 😅 You’re here to build something sustainable.Something strategic.Something that creates freedom.One of my favourite moments in this conversation was diving into something I am SO passionate about:The difference between visibility and authority.Because getting seen isn’t always the problem.Sometimes the gap isn’t more content.It’s positioning.Credibility.Movement.Authority.And creating a business ecosystem that keeps working even when you’re offline. If business currently feels like it only works when YOU are constantly showing up…Constantly posting…Constantly chasing…This episode is for you 🤍🎧 Tune in now.And if this lands for you, screenshot the episode, tag me on Instagram @claregarnerofficial and tell me your biggest takeaway.And if you’re sat there thinking:"Holy shit… I think I’ve built my business backwards…"DM me VIP ❤️#BusinessGrowth #AuthorityMarketing #PodcastStrategy #WomenInBusiness #EntrepreneurPodcast #FemaleFounder #BusinessStrategy #PersonalBranding #PodcastGrowth #EntrepreneurMindset #BusinessCoach #FounderJourney #BusinessAuthority #BusinessVisibility #ContentMarketing #CEOmindset #SmallBusinessGrowth #WomenWhoLead #MarketingStrategy #BusinessSystems

So many business owners think the answer is:More posting.More social media.More visibility.More content.And honestly?Most of the time… that isn’t actually the problem. In this episode of Raw & Real, I sit down with children’s sleep consultant and twin sleep specialist Amanda Hinton, who is 7 months into building her business and navigating that point so many entrepreneurs hit…"I know I’m good at what I do… but how do I get more people to know I exist?" And what unfolded ended up becoming such an important conversation around:✨ Visibility vs authority✨ Why niching down can actually accelerate growth✨ The mistake so many entrepreneurs make when building a business✨ Why social media isn’t always the answer✨ Building trust at scale✨ Business ecosystems that create freedom✨ Why podcasting isn’t really about podcasting at all✨ How to position yourself as the obvious choice in your industry✨ Creating inbound opportunities instead of constantly chasing clientsBecause if business only works when YOU are constantly posting…Constantly chasing…Constantly trying to convince people…That isn’t freedom.And honestly?You didn’t build a business to become a full-time content creator. We also talk about one of my favourite topics:Authority.Because the businesses growing sustainably long term aren’t always the loudest.They’re the ones positioned properly.The ones building trust.The ones becoming known for something specific.The ones creating ecosystems that keep working even when they’re offline. And somewhere in this conversation Amanda went from:"Podcasts probably aren’t for me..."To:"Oh... this changes everything." If you’re trying to grow your business…Get more visible…Create more freedom…Or stop feeling like everything depends entirely on YOU…This episode is for you.🎧 Listen now.And if this lands for you, screenshot the episode, tag me on Instagram @claregarnerofficial and tell me your biggest takeaway 🤍DM me VIP if business currently feels like it only works when you’re constantly ‘on’.

So many entrepreneurs think the answer is more visibility. More content. More consistency. More showing up. But honestly? What if the thing holding your business back isn’t visibility at all… it’s systems? In this episode of Raw & Real, I’m joined by Najma Khan, entrepreneur, Profit First expert and business owner who started with just $500 and built a successful business by doing one thing differently from day one: building systems that actually support sustainable growth. We dive into:✨ Why so many small businesses fail within the first few years✨ The mistake entrepreneurs make when they become too dependent on themselves✨ Why passion alone isn’t enough to grow a sustainable business✨ Business systems that create freedom and long-term growth✨ The importance of knowing your numbers as a founder✨ Why visibility without conversion won’t build a profitable business✨ How podcast strategy, backend systems and authority work together✨ Why entrepreneurs burn out trying to ‘do it all’✨ Building businesses that create impact, profit and freedomWe also talk about something I’m massively passionate about — the difference between building a business that constantly needs YOU… versus building one with the structure to actually support the life you want to live. Because honestly?More content isn’t always the answer.More visibility isn’t always the answer.Sometimes the answer is building the right systems behind the scenes.If you’re a founder, entrepreneur, business owner, coach, consultant or building a personal brand and wondering why growth still feels harder than it should… this episode is for you.🎧 Listen now and if this episode resonates, share it to your stories and tag me @claregarnerofficial🤍 And if your podcast or business currently feels like it only works when YOU are constantly ‘on’ — DM me VIP.#BusinessGrowth #EntrepreneurPodcast #SmallBusinessGrowth #BusinessSystems #EntrepreneurMindset #BusinessStrategy #WomenInBusiness #ProfitFirst #PodcastStrategy #AuthorityMarketing #BusinessPodcast #FounderJourney #BusinessGrowthStrategy #BusinessSuccess #FemaleEntrepreneur #MarketingStrategy #PodcastGrowth

After weeks away from the podcast, I’m finally back… and honestly, everything has changed. In this raw and unfiltered solo episode, I’m sharing the full story of:→ moving to Egypt with my 2 daughters→ rebuilding my life after heartbreak→ selling almost everything I owned in just 10 days→ finding unexpected peace, freedom and alignment in El Gouna→ and the huge shifts happening inside both my life and business right now.But this episode isn’t just about moving abroad.It’s about what happens when you stop building a business that relies on you being constantly ‘on’… and start building one rooted in authority, positioning and freedom instead.I also dive into:→ why most businesses are focusing on the wrong growth strategies→ the real gap between sales & marketing→ warm inbound leads vs cold outreach→ why authority positioning matters more than ever→ and how I’m now helping founders become the obvious choice in their industries through strategic platforms, ecosystems and visibility.If you’ve been craving:✨ more freedom✨ more ease✨ a business that actually supports your life✨ or permission to completely reinvent yourself…this episode is for you.If you’re ready to build a business that creates warm inbound leads, authority and freedom without you needing to be constantly online…DM me ‘VIP’ on Instagram @claregarnerofficial or connect with me on Facebook to explore a VIP Strategy Day 🤍

What if the thing you’re waiting to “feel ready” for…is actually the thing that creates your clarity?In this Raw & Real conversation, I’m sitting down with Danielle as she’s in the middle of building her podcast — not after it’s polished, not once it’s “figured out”… but right in the thick of it.We go deep into:→ what it actually takes to build a podcast that grows your business→ why most people stay stuck in “waiting” instead of moving→ the difference between intuition vs fear (and how to tell the difference)→ why messy action creates more clarity than overthinking ever will→ how to turn your voice into a movement — not just more contentWe also break open one of the biggest shifts I see:Most people are building their podcast like content creators…instead of using it as a client-generating ecosystem.This is where everything changes.Because when your podcast is built properly, it doesn’t just “share your voice”…It:→ builds authority→ deepens connection→ and brings in aligned clients consistentlyAnd it does that whether you’re “on” or not.This episode is for you if you know you’re here for more…but you keep finding yourself waiting for the right time, the right clarity, or the perfect plan.Because the truth?That moment doesn’t come first.You create it by moving.If this episode landed and you’re ready to stop overthinking and actually build this into your business…Message me “VIP” and I’ll show you exactly how we anchor your podcast as a movement + client-generating machine 🤍

If you’re building your brand through visibility alone… this is the episode that will shift everything.In this Raw & Real conversation, I sit down with Carla — a memoir writer in the middle of building her platform — and we go deep into one of the biggest mistakes I see entrepreneurs making right now:👉 building on borrowed platforms instead of their own.We unpack what it actually takes to turn your voice into a movement, why podcast guesting alone won’t grow your business, and how to stop being “busy creating content” and start thinking like a CEO.Inside this episode, I walk you through:→ why you should build your own podcast before guesting on others→ the difference between being a content creator vs a business owner→ how to create a movement-led brand that people buy into (not just follow)→ the exact shift from visibility → authority → clients→ how to build a client-generating podcast ecosystem (not just content)→ why your business needs cash + clients — not just audience growth→ how to structure your platform so your book, offers, and opportunities actually convertThis isn’t about more content.This is about building something that actually works.Because your podcast shouldn’t just be a place where you speak…It should be the thing that:→ grows your audience→ positions your authority→ and consistently brings in aligned clients and opportunitiesThis is exactly how I’ve built Raw & Real — and why my business continues to grow, even when I’m not “on.”If you’re ready to stop guessing and start building a platform that actually scales your business…this episode will show you where to start.✨ Want help building your podcast as a client-generating ecosystem?DM me “VIP” on Instagram → @claregarnerofficialor connect with me on Facebook → Clare GarnerLet’s build something that actually moves.

You can be in it… and still be leading.That’s what this episode is really about.Because so many women think they need to have everything figured out before they show up, before they lead, before they build something meaningful.But that’s not real.In this conversation with Hanna— a mindset coach in the weight loss space — we go into what it actually looks like to build your voice, your business, and your life while you’re still in it.We talk about:– navigating different cultures, relationships, and identity– building a business in a space that doesn’t fully understand what you do– the difference between sharing your story vs leading a movement– why mindset alone isn’t enough without structure– and what it really takes to turn your voice into something that actually movesBecause your voice isn’t the problem.It’s whether you’ve built something that can hold it.This is exactly what I see over and over again.Women with powerful stories.Powerful voices.Powerful work.But no structure behind it.So they stay stuck in:→ posting→ overthinking→ inconsistency→ not convertingNot because they’re not good enough.Because nothing is actually holding them.This is what I change.Inside my VIP Authority Install Days, we don’t just “start a podcast”.We build:– your movement– your messaging– your podcast as your ecosystem– your client pathwayAll in one day.So you leave with something that actually supports you…holds you…and converts.Not months from now.Now.And if what you felt in this episode goes deeper than just business…If you’re craving the kind of space where you get to be fully seen, fully expressed, and experience this in your body —Real & Raw: The Expression is coming.Because once you feel that level of truth in a room…you don’t go back.—If you’re ready for either of those next steps:DM me “VIP” or “SEDONA” on Instagram @claregarnerofficialNo more hovering.Let’s move.🤍

In this episode, I’m joined by Natalie for a beautiful, layered conversation around voice, authenticity, purpose, remigration, impact, and what it really means to use your voice for good.Natalie shares her journey of moving back to the Netherlands after nearly 20 years in Kenya, bringing her partner and children into a completely new life chapter, and rebuilding both personally and professionally from that place.But what makes this conversation so powerful is the deeper why behind her work.Because helping people use their voice isn’t just a business for Natalie.It’s deeply personal.We talk about:→ how early pain can shape the purpose you’re here to lead→ why authenticity is more than “just be yourself”→ the connection between voice, freedom, and impact→ what it means to create little pockets of courage and change in the world→ how to make your voice heard in business, in leadership, and in life→ why using your voice is not just about speaking louder→ and how real transformation happens when people feel safe enough to express what’s trueWe also explore how voice work can support people in radically different spaces:from choir sessions and community eventsto refugees rebuilding identityto employees finding the courage to speak up in corporate environments.Because the truth is…your voice is not just a tool.It’s a vehicle.For freedom.For action.For connection.For change.And if you’ve ever felt like your voice doesn’t matter, or that what you have to say is too small to make a difference, this episode is your reminder that change often starts in the smallest moments:one questionone invitationone honest conversationone act of courageThat’s how movements begin.And if listening to this has made you realise that your voice, your message, or your mission is ready for more structure behind it…this is exactly what I help women build inside my VIP Podcast Authority Install Days.Because your voice is powerful — but it becomes even more powerful when it has the right movement, messaging, strategy, and ecosystem behind it.In one day, we build the full structure behind your podcast so it stops being “just another thing you do” and starts becoming the vehicle that feeds your whole business.If you’re ready to make your voice work for you, DM me VIP on Instagram @claregarnerofficial or hit the link here

In this episode, I’m joined by Britney Smith for a real, raw conversation around feminine leadership, intuition, burnout, business growth, and what it actually looks like to build from embodiment instead of constant hustle.Britney shares her journey from the corporate world into entrepreneurship, and how burnout became the catalyst for a completely different way of living, leading, and doing business.We talk about:→ why so many women are craving slower, softer, more intuitive ways of building→ the difference between feminine flow and just being energetically scattered→ what it means to become the embodied version of the woman you’re here to be→ why success taking time is not failure — it’s normal→ how personal growth, business growth, and identity shifts are all deeply connected→ pricing, self-worth, and the belief work behind charging more→ and why intuition is powerful… but still needs structure if you actually want it to support your businessThis episode goes somewhere really powerful because what begins as a conversation about feminine leadership becomes a deeper truth bomb around how most women are building their podcast and visibility backwards.Not because they’re not talented.Not because they don’t have a message.But because they’re treating their podcast like content instead of treating it like an ecosystem.And that is a completely different conversation.If you’ve been trying to grow your business through intuition alone…or you’ve got a podcast, a message, or a movement in you, but no real strategy behind it yet…this episode is going to land.Because being intuitive does not mean being unsupported.And feminine leadership works best when the masculine structure is finally strong enough to hold it.And if this episode has made you realise that you’ve been building your voice, your content, or your podcast without the actual systems to support it…this is exactly what I help women fix inside my VIP Podcast Authority Install Days.We don’t just “record a podcast.”In one day, we build the movement, messaging, client pathway, funnels, and full ecosystem behind it — so your voice actually starts generating cash, clients, and opportunities.This is the one day of masculine structure that allows your feminine to finally feel safe enough to lead.If that’s calling you, DM me VIP on Instagram @claregarnerofficial or head to the link here

In this episode, I’m joined by Barbara Escolme for a conversation around risk, self-trust, identity shifts, and what it actually takes to build a life on your own terms.We go deep into the truth that so many women need to hear right now:You do not grow by staying comfortable.Whether it’s business, relationships, money, property, motherhood, or completely changing direction in your life… growth will always ask something of you. It will ask for courage. It will ask for discomfort. And it will ask you to stop making every decision from fear.Inside this conversation, we talk about:→ why not taking action is still a risk→ how fear keeps women stuck in lives they’ve already outgrown→ the power of trying something, even if it doesn’t work out→ why “failure” is just feedback→ how identity is shaped through conditioning, family patterns, and lived experiences→ the difference between being nice and being kind→ why success is inevitable when you’re consistent and willing to course-correctBarbara also shares powerful insight from the world of property, finance, and risk management, and we bridge that into real life in a way that makes this episode so relatable whether you care about property or not.Because this episode isn’t really about property.It’s about self-leadership.It’s about trusting yourself enough to take the next step, even when you don’t have the full picture yet.And it’s about recognising that sometimes the thing you thought you wanted… was only there to show you what you actually want instead.If you’ve been sitting on a desire, second-guessing yourself, or waiting for certainty before you move… this episode is your reminder:you do not need guarantees to begin.You need courage.And if this episode has highlighted that you’re ready to stop circling the same thoughts and actually build something with your voice…this is exactly what we do inside my VIP Podcast Authority Install Days.We don’t just help you “start a podcast.”We build the movement, positioning, messaging, funnel, and full ecosystem behind it — so your podcast becomes a client-generating machine for your business from day one.If you’re ready to stop overthinking and start building something real, DM me VIP on Instagram @claregarnerofficial or head to the link here

In this episode, we go deep.Not surface-level “mindset shifts”…but the kind that only come when life completely stops you in your tracks.Jessica shares her story of going from everyday life… to being diagnosed with a brain tumour and facing a near-death experience that changed everything.And what we unpack inside this conversation is powerful:→ how identity is actually formed (and how to rewrite it)→ why most people stay stuck in emotional loops→ the difference between reacting to life vs leading yourself through it→ and how to stop sweating the small stuff… so you can actually handle the big stuffWe also dive into something I’ve been moving through in real time:Turning pain into purpose.Not bypassing it.Not pretending it doesn’t hurt.But actually using it as fuel for who you’re becoming next.Because here’s the truth:You don’t need another strategy.You need:👉 emotional capacity👉 self-leadership👉 and a nervous system that can actually hold the life you say you wantThis is the work.If you’re listening to this and feeling like:“I know I’m here for more… but something isn’t clicking”Then it’s not because you’re not capable.It’s because you don’t yet have the structure to hold your voice, your message, and your next level.That’s exactly what I build with my clients.Inside my VIP Podcast Day, we install your entire authority ecosystem in one day — so your voice actually becomes:→ visible→ trusted→ and client-generatingThis is the bridge between:being powerful internallyand being paid for it externally.If that’s calling you, send me a DM or head to the link.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Rachel — marketing agency owner, mum, and mental health campaigner — for one of the most raw and honest conversations we’ve had on the podcast.We’re not talking about polished success or “having it all together.”We’re talking about what it actually looks like to run a business while navigating your mental health, raising a child, and holding everything together behind the scenes.Rachel shares her experience with chronic depression, motherhood, and building a values-led business that prioritises people over profit — even when that goes against the way most businesses are run.And we go deep into:mental health in business and leadershipturning pain into purpose in real timeemotional regulation and breaking generational patternsbuilding a business that actually supports your lifewhy most women struggle to scale (and the real missing piece: your movement)This conversation is for you if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right”… but something still isn’t clicking.Because the truth is — it’s not just about strategy.It’s about what you stand for.And when you lead with that, everything changes.If you’re listening to this and thinking, “I know I’ve got something… but I don’t know how to structure it into a business that actually converts” — that’s exactly what we do inside the Podcast Authority Install VIP Day.We build your movement, your podcast, and your full client pathway together, in one day — so you leave with it done, not just planned.You can find all the details and book your spot HERE or reach out to me on Instagram @claregarnerofficial.

In this episode, I’m joined by Tara for a conversation about entrepreneurship, identity shifts, motherhood, alignment, and what it really takes to build something big on your own terms.Tara shares how she left a successful career in tech leadership, built a seven-figure consulting firm in under two years, and then made an even bolder move — turning down a life-changing offer to acquire the business because it no longer felt aligned with the life she actually wanted.We talk about the reality of stepping away from traditional success, the fear that comes with building something of your own, and why more women need to know there are other ways to create wealth, freedom, and impact beyond the 9–5.This conversation also opens up a bigger theme around helping women build businesses in a way that actually fits their lives — not just what looks good on paper.Inside this episode, we talk about:leaving corporate and building a consulting businessthe first 3–6 months of entrepreneurship and what no one tells youmotherhood, ambition, and redefining successwhy chasing alignment matters more than chasing moneythe shift from building for businesses to helping women directlyhow supporting others can become the most powerful business model of allIf you’ve been craving something bigger but you know the traditional path no longer fits, this episode will land.🎙️ Ready to turn your voice into a movement and build a podcast ecosystem that actually converts?DM me VIP on Instagram at @claregarnerofficial.

In this episode, I’m joined by therapist and founder Josephine Ampaw-Greene for a conversation that went far deeper than either of us expected.We talk about relationship trauma, healing without closure, and what it really looks like to navigate heartbreak in real time — while still showing up for your life, your business, and the people who need you.I open up about my own current experience of loss, detachment, and learning to let go of control… and Josephine brings a powerful perspective on why healing doesn’t require perfection — or even resolution.But this conversation goes beyond relationships.Because the same patterns show up in business.Waiting to feel ready.Thinking you need to be “perfect” before you move.Holding yourself back while helping everyone else grow.We also dive into:– why perfection is a myth (and how it’s keeping you stuck)– the link between self-leadership and emotional resilience– building a business around your voice and your movement– and how to keep moving forward even when life feels messyThis is raw.This is real.And this is exactly what it looks like to lead yourself through it.If you’ve ever felt like you need to have it all together before you can move forward — this episode will shift that.🎙️ Ready to turn your voice into a movement and a business that actually converts?DM me VIP or head to @claregarnerofficial to build your podcast ecosystem properly from day one.

If your podcast isn’t bringing in clients… it’s not because you need more content.It’s because it’s not set up properly.In this episode, I’m joined by Brittnee Wilder — author, energy healer and entrepreneur — who shares her journey of building her business, launching her podcast, and realising that visibility alone doesn’t equal conversion.And in real time, I break down the exact gap most entrepreneurs are missing.Because this is where so many people are getting it wrong.They’re:– starting a podcast with no strategy– focusing on consistency over conversion– building content instead of building a businessAnd it’s costing them months (sometimes years) of missed opportunities.Inside this episode, we cover:– Why your podcast should be your business ecosystem (not just content)– The biggest mistake new podcasters make (and how to fix it fast)– How to turn your podcast into a client-generating machine– Why “just letting it grow” is the slowest way to scale– How to align your podcast with your movement, positioning and offersThis is a real, raw conversation — but also a live breakdown of what’s not working and how to shift it immediately.If you’ve started a podcast (or you’re thinking about it) and it’s not converting…This is the episode you need to hear.—Ready to turn your podcast into a business asset?DM me EXPOSED on Instagram @claregarnerofficialor apply for a VIP Day where we build your full podcast ecosystem — live, in one day.

In this episode of the Raw and Real Podcast, I’m joined by Kim Shamtally, founder of Muscle Mechanics, for a conversation about recovery, resilience, personal branding, and what it really looks like to build a business from lived experience.Kim shares the deeply personal story behind her brand — from her son’s brain tumour diagnosis and recovery journey, to creating a product that began at home and grew into something much bigger. But this conversation quickly opens into something deeper: how a mission-led business is built, how personal pain can evolve into powerful purpose, and what it takes to turn a heartfelt idea into a movement that can actually scale.We also talk about visibility, courage, fear of success, family, creativity, and why the strongest brands are often born from real life rather than strategy first. And towards the end, we get into the bigger vision: building a movement, becoming the bridge between holistic and conventional healing, and using a podcast as the ecosystem to carry that message further.Inside this episode, we talk about:building a personal brand from lived experiencerecovery, movement, and the deeper meaning of healingthe story behind Muscle Mechanicsturning personal pain into business purposefear of success and scaling something that matterscreating a movement bigger than the productbridging holistic and conventional approaches to healthwhy podcasting can become the platform for your global messageIf you know you’re sitting on something bigger than a product or service — this episode will show you what it sounds like when the movement starts to come into focus.If you want help turning your message into a movement and building the podcast ecosystem to scale it, DM me “VIP” on Instagram @claregarnerofficial.

I didn’t plan to record this episode… but something shifted and I knew I had to capture it in real time.The last few weeks have been some of the hardest I’ve ever walked through.A relationship that meant everything to me was taken out of my hands overnight. No closure. No transition. Just gone. And then… I found out he was married.It broke me.But last night, something changed.In a deep 4-hour session, I moved through every layer of emotion — grief, anger, confusion, heartbreak — and for the first time, I was able to see things clearly.Not just what happened… but what it was showing me.The truth about the relationship.The places I had compromised.And the version of me I’m actually stepping into next.And then something unexpected happened…A vision came through.One that connects everything: • my poetry • my voice • my body • my workAnd what I realised is this:I’m not pivoting.I’m expanding.This episode is me in the middle of that shift.No polished answers.No final plan.Just the raw, real moment where something new is being born.If you’ve ever felt like your life cracked open…and you didn’t know what was coming next…This is for you.

In this episode of the Raw and Real Podcast, I sit down with Lynn Stone — but this quickly becomes much more than a guest interview.Lynn shares the deeply personal story behind her work in death planning, grief, and end-of-life preparation, after losing her husband and rebuilding life as a mother, employee, author, and business owner. But as the conversation unfolds, what really happens is a live strategic shift.We move from talking about her mission to uncovering the real issue: visibility is not the same as conversion. I break down why being seen is not enough, why difficult messages need stronger positioning, and why a business grows faster when it’s built around a movement, not just an offer.This episode is a real-time example of what I do best: hearing what’s underneath the words, finding the gap, and showing someone how to position their message so people can actually buy into it.Inside this episode, we talk about:grief, widowhood, and building a business from lived experiencedeath planning and why people resist the conversationthe difference between visibility and conversionwhy movements create stronger businesses than services alonehow to position a difficult topic so it creates hope, not resistancewhat it sounds like when business strategy happens live on airIf your business is getting attention but not enough sales, this episode will show you why.Want me to diagnose the gaps in your podcast, messaging, or offer the way I do in this episode?DM me “EXPOSED” on Instagram @claregarnerofficial.

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 youidentity shifts in business and lifefear of visibility and nervous system workbuilding community as an entrepreneurwhy movement matters more than nichecreating a life by design instead of performing successReady to turn your voice into authority and build a podcast that actually converts?DM me “VIP” on Instagram at @claregarnerofficial.

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 momentumIf 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.If you’re ready to turn your podcast into a client-generating machine:DM me “PODCAST” on Instagram @claregarnerofficialor explore working together inside my VIP Days, Podcast Exposed™ or the Top 15 Club.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 movementbuild a paid communityattract the right women into her worldcreate a natural pathway into her mastermind and VIP offersand stop relying on scattered content or endless free trainingsThis 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 podcastusing a podcast as the top of your funnelbuilding a movement around your messagewhy community is the bridge between content and conversionhow to create a business ecosystem behind your podcastthe difference between visibility and authorityIf 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.

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.

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 sisterhoodentrepreneurship and personal brandingbuilding safer communities through businessmale suicide, loneliness and support systemswhy women need spaces that feel safe and realhow a podcast can become a movement platform and authority builderIf 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.

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 foundationI 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 businessIf you’re ready to build a podcast that creates authority, movement and clients, this is exactly what we do inside my Podcast Ecosystem VIP Days.Reply VIP or message me on Instagram for the details.

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 worldThis 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 businessIf you’re ready to turn your voice into a podcast that builds authority, community and clients, this is exactly the work we do inside my Podcast Ecosystem VIP Days.Reply VIP or message me on Instagram for the details.

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 businessThis 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 meaningfulIf 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.Reply VIP or message me on Instagram to learn more.

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 transformationIf you love real conversations about embodiment, feminine leadership, healing, entrepreneurship and building authority through your voice, make sure you follow the Raw & Real Podcast.Connect with Desiree: https://www.instagram.com/thedesireelakeisha/Sedona Sisterhood Retreat: DM for details Reply VIP or message me on Instagram @claregarnerofficial

So many women say they want visibility.They want to write the book.Start the podcast.Launch the movement.But when it comes to monetising it?That’s where things get quiet.In this episode, I sit down with multi-genre author and writing mentor Shelley Wilson, who has written over 20 books and is now stepping into building her own publishing house.We talk about:• The difference between planning and winging it• Why visibility isn’t the scary part — success is• Building an author platform that actually converts• Why “build it and they will come” is a lie• And how to turn your voice into leverage, not just contentIf you’re an author, coach, speaker or leader who knows you’re meant to be seen — but your visibility isn’t translating into revenue yet — this episode will call you forward.Because visibility alone doesn’t get you paid.Structure does.If you’re ready to stop building sideways and turn your podcast into the top of your sales ecosystem, join us inside the Top 15 Club where we build authority that compounds.And if you’re ready to launch or relaunch iconically — Egypt is where we do it properly. Let’s build this right.

Who are you if you’re not that anymore?In this episode, I sit down with Sarah - a former nurse who hit a breaking point when the identity she’d built her life around no longer fit.And here’s the truth most entrepreneurs don’t want to admit:Sometimes the depression, the burnout, the anxiety… isn’t failure.It’s misalignment.We talk about:– Letting go of identities that once felt safe– Reclaiming who you were before the world told you who to be– Why hustle disconnects you from your power– How creativity reopens the portal– What happens when you stop forcing and start listeningIf you’re building a business from an identity you’ve already outgrown, this conversation will land.Because expansion requires release.And authority only works when it’s authentic.If you’re ready to step into your next identity and build your platform from there:→ Apply for Egypt Podcast & Brand Ascension→ Or join the Top 15 ClubStop circling who you used to be.Begin your repositioning.Clare

Most entrepreneurs are creating content.Very few are building authority.In this episode, I sit down with Marla, a woman reinventing herself in the second half of her life, and we end up unpacking something far more important than reinvention. Infrastructure.Your podcast is not a content channel.It’s your top-of-funnel authority engine.I didn’t grow a podcast.I built a movement.Two international events filled.High-level clients attracted.All from positioning - not popularity.If your podcast isn’t monetising, it’s not a downloads problem.It’s an architecture problem.In this conversation, we break down:– Why your podcast should be your ecosystem– How to build a movement instead of content– Why manual marketing doesn’t scale– The power of entering the market iconicallyIf you’re serious about positioning your podcast properly:→ Join the Top 15 Club→ Book a Podcast Exposed audit→ Or apply for Egypt AscensionBegin your repositioning here: Stop creating noise.Start building authority.Clare
