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.

Powerback 584: Slow Down To Speed Up - Switching Busy for Intention
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you're cramming your calendar full of little things to avoid the deeper work you know you need to do, this one's for you.
What I've seen over and over again with ambitious women is that busy isn't just a calendar problem but an identity problem. You've tied your worth to how much you're doing and how fast you're going for so long that slowing down feels dangerous. Like you're falling behind or even falling apart!
But what if busy is actually the thing keeping you from the breakthrough you keep saying you want?
In this Powerback®, I'm talking about why we stay stuck in execution mode, what it costs us to keep cramming surface-level work into every crack of our day, and how strategically slowing down is the thing that speeds everything up.
Busy is a safety mechanism. Busy feels productive. And busy is also what's standing between you and the business and life that you actually want.
Take your Powerback® and let's flip the script on busy.
We'll go through:
- Why being busy feels productive, but it’s a trap
- The difference between doing the work and cramming the work
- What it really means to slow down
- How to identify what actually needs your time and attention most
- Practical ways to start introducing white space into your days
