The Gutsy Podcast | Mindset, Personal Development & Entrepreneurship for Women
The Gutsy Podcast is for women, entrepreneurs, and go-getters who are ready to stop holding back and start making gutsy moves in their lives and businesses. Gutsy is the belief and action that happens in the split second when you’re faced with a decision—but this time you choose to go for it instead of going back.
Hosted by Keynote Speaker and Coach, LauraAura, this show is your weekly guide to owning what you actually want, shifting the mind junk that’s been holding you back, and taking bold steps toward your goals.
Each week, you’ll get powerful insights, actionable strategies, and inspiring stories designed to help you break free from overthinking and overcomplicating. Whether you’re tuning in for a full episode or a quick Powerback® session, you’ll walk away with the confidence and clarity to stop fighting yourself and start going for it.
Desire drives you, but gutsy? That’s what gets it done.

269: The Art of Fighting Fair with Tannaz Hosseinpour
If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles of miscommunication, emotional shutdown, or repeated arguments in your relationships—this episode will change the way you view conflict, connection, and your own nervous system.
Tannaz is a couples therapist and the founder of Minutes on Growth, and she joined me to talk about how to build safer, deeper relationships through both inner and relational work. From how to “fight fair” to why emotional regulation is essential for true intimacy, this conversation is full of gentle wisdom and powerful truth bombs.
We explore how to stay present in the moment (especially when emotions are high), how to communicate needs clearly without shame or blame, and why tending to our inner child is often the key to real repair. Whether you're navigating a romantic relationship, a close friendship, or a family dynamic—this episode offers practical tools to bring more safety, trust, and intimacy to every interaction.
In this episode:
- Why “fighting” isn’t bad—but how you fight matters
- The nervous system’s role in conflict (and what to do when you’re dysregulated)
- How to recognize when you’re protecting instead of connecting
- Communication strategies that prevent shutdown and deepen connection
- The difference between relational skills and inner work—and why we need both
- Building emotional safety through self-awareness, boundaries, and vulnerability
- How to use curiosity instead of assumption in hard conversations
- Tools to return to your body and regulate in real time
