In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon sits down with Jennifer Griffith, author, speaker, and host of the About Your Mother podcast. Jennifer’s work explores the relationships and defining moments that shape who people become, and her debut memoir, Both Sides of Then: Finding Love After Abandonment, offers a powerful lens on motherhood, resilience, abandonment, and rewriting the next chapter without erasing the backstory.

Together, Shauna Lynn and Jennifer explore why authenticity cannot be copied from someone else’s framework, how borrowed business advice can pull entrepreneurs away from their real strengths, and why the most meaningful stories often begin in the places people have been taught to hide.

Listeners will walk away with a stronger understanding of how to use their own story as a source of clarity, confidence, connection, and business direction.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon sits down with Shari Leid, author, speaker, connection expert, attorney, and founder of the Flip the Box movement. Shari shares how her personal story of being found as an orphaned baby in a cardboard box shaped her lifelong search for belonging, and how that same box became the foundation for a powerful leadership framework rooted in connection.

Through her Table for 51 project, Shari traveled to all 50 states and shared meals with women she did not know, uncovering what creates meaningful connection beyond surface-level networking. She explains how disconnection shows up in teams, client relationships, and leadership, and why trust often begins with helping people feel seen.

Listeners will walk away with practical ways to strengthen relationships, improve communication, and lead with more clarity, confidence, and care.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon explores the fine line between healthy competitor awareness and toxic comparison. For many service-based entrepreneurs, especially in industries like home staging, interior design, consulting, and coaching, it can feel like everyone is watching everyone. But when competitor research turns into obsession, it can lead to reactive decisions, scattered offers, pricing doubts, and a business that no longer feels aligned.

Shauna Lynn breaks down how to learn from others without copying them, why online success is often just a highlight reel, and how to use your own vision, values, differentiators, and client experience as the filter for business decisions.

Listeners will walk away with a healthier way to view competitors, stronger questions to ask about their own business, and a reminder that standing out often comes from leaning further into what already makes them different.

In the final episode of this special mini-series of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon walks through the complete sale process for a home staging business, from the first buyer inquiry to closing day and beyond. While many business owners focus on valuation and preparing their company for sale, understanding how a transaction actually unfolds can make the difference between a smooth transition and a stressful experience.

Listeners will learn how information is shared throughout the sale process, what buyers expect at each stage, and why confidentiality, preparation, and timing matter more than most owners realize. Shauna Lynn breaks down key milestones, including teasers, NDAs, prospectuses, buyer conversations, letters of intent, due diligence, closing, and transition support, helping staging business owners understand what lies ahead and how to prepare with confidence.

Whether a sale is years away or already on the horizon, this episode provides valuable insight into protecting the business, preserving relationships, and creating more options for the future. Tune in to gain a clearer understanding of the journey from listing to closing and what it takes to successfully transfer the business you've worked so hard to build.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast mini-series, How to Sell Your Home Staging Business, Shauna Lynn Simon explains why one of the biggest drivers of business value has nothing to do with revenue or inventory. It comes down to transferability. Buyers want confidence that a business can continue without relying on the current owner's memory, instincts, or constant involvement.

From pricing and proposals to client communication, warehouse organization, and team responsibilities, Shauna Lynn breaks down the systems that create a more valuable and sellable home staging business. She also shares a simple exercise to identify where your business is too dependent on you and practical ways to start documenting the processes that matter most without creating an overwhelming operations manual.

Whether selling is years away or simply a future possibility, this episode will help home stagers build a business that runs more smoothly today while becoming a stronger asset for tomorrow. If this episode resonates, share it with another home stager who is building for long-term success.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon sits down with Kalee Boisvert, a financial advisor, author, speaker, and founder of Kalee Boisvert Wealth Advisory. With more than 15 years in finance and an MBA in finance, Kalee brings a refreshing perspective to money, wealth, self-worth, and the pressure many women feel to always be further ahead.

Kalee shares why money is rarely just about money, how childhood experiences and comparison shape financial confidence, and why so many successful women still feel like they are behind. She also challenges the “just enough” mindset and encourages women to stop judging wealth, stop shrinking their goals, and redefine rich in a way that supports freedom, joy, and personal values.

Listeners will walk away with a new way to think about money as a tool, not a measure of worth.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon sits down with Kalee Boisvert, a financial advisor, author, speaker, and founder of Kalee Boisvert Wealth Advisory. With more than 15 years in finance and an MBA in finance, Kalee brings a refreshing perspective to money, wealth, self-worth, and the pressure many women feel to always be further ahead.

Kalee shares why money is rarely just about money, how childhood experiences and comparison shape financial confidence, and why so many successful women still feel like they are behind. She also challenges the “just enough” mindset and encourages women to stop judging wealth, stop shrinking their goals, and redefine rich in a way that supports freedom, joy, and personal values.

Listeners will walk away with a new way to think about money as a tool, not a measure of worth.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast mini-series, How to Sell Your Home Staging Business, Shauna Lynn Simon tackles one of the biggest misconceptions in the staging industry: the belief that inventory determines business value. While furniture, artwork, accessories, and decor are essential tools of the trade, buyers are not focused on what you spent. They are focused on what those assets produce.

Shauna Lynn breaks down the difference between selling inventory and selling a business, explains why buyers evaluate earning power over furniture costs, and shares how productive inventory can support value while unproductive inventory can create drag. She also reveals why some home staging businesses sell for far more than the value of their warehouse contents and highlights the often-overlooked intangible assets that make a business truly attractive to buyers.

Whether you plan to sell in the next year or simply want to build a stronger, more profitable company today, this episode will help you start viewing your business through a buyer's lens and make smarter decisions about growth, profitability, and long-term value.

Many home stagers focus on revenue when measuring success, but buyers look at something very different when evaluating a business. In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast mini-series, How to Sell Your Home Staging Business, Shauna Lynn Simon breaks down the financial story behind business value and explains why revenue alone does not determine what your company is worth.

Listeners will learn how buyers interpret financial statements, what profitability really means, and why understanding metrics like gross profit, net income, and Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) can dramatically impact a future sale. Even if numbers aren't your strength, this episode will help you understand the financial story buyers see when evaluating your business without getting lost in accounting jargon or complicated formulas.

Whether selling is years away or simply a future possibility, this conversation will help home stagers look at their numbers through a completely different lens. You'll also learn why preparing your financials 2-3 years before a sale can significantly impact both buyer confidence and business value. The insights shared in this episode can lead to stronger decision-making, healthier profits, and a more valuable business long before an exit is ever on the horizon.

If you're serious about building a staging business that creates both income and long-term value, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon sits down with Christina Kantzavelos, a California licensed psychotherapist, writer, chronic illness advocate, and founder of Begin Within Today and WithinMe. After severe Lyme disease and complex chronic illness forced Christina to rebuild her life, identity, and career, she developed a powerful perspective on ambition, burnout, boundaries, and sustainable success.

Christina explains how survival mode shows up in high-achieving women, including overfunctioning, people pleasing, perfectionism, freezing, and fawning. She also shares why boundaries can feel impossible to hold when the nervous system does not feel safe, and what it really takes to create a business that supports your health instead of depleting it.

Listeners will walk away with practical nervous system tools, a more compassionate lens for burnout recovery, and permission to redefine success in a way that protects their capacity, relationships, and wellbeing.

Many home stagers assume that if their calendar is full, their inventory is moving, and revenue is strong, their business must be valuable to a buyer. But what if that's not the whole story?

In this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast mini-series, How to Sell Your Home Staging Business, Shauna Lynn Simon breaks down one of the most important concepts business owners need to understand before they ever think about selling: a busy business is not always a sellable business.

Listeners will learn how buyers evaluate a home staging business differently than owners do, why owner-operated and owner-dependent are not the same thing, and what creates confidence or concern during the sale process. Shauna Lynn also shares the five key things every buyer needs to believe before they are willing to invest in a business, along with practical questions that can help owners identify hidden risks and opportunities within their company today.

Whether selling is years away or simply an option you'd like to preserve, this episode will help you build a stronger, more transferable, and more valuable business now while preparing for whatever comes next.

Shauna Lynn breaks down the common mistakes that keep business owners hidden, from vague messaging and trying to be clever instead of clear, to assuming people will connect the dots on their own. She also challenges the belief that more content equals more visibility, emphasizing instead the importance of clarity, repetition, and consistency.

Listeners will walk away with a new perspective on how to communicate what they do in a way that is obvious, memorable, and easy for others to understand without extra effort.

If you’ve been putting in the work but not seeing the results, this episode will help you shift from simply showing up to truly being seen.

Rather than framing self-care as something you earn or squeeze in when there’s time, Shauna Lynn reframes it as self-respect that shows up in everyday decisions. From how you manage your time and energy to how you speak to yourself internally, she breaks down how small, consistent actions either support or sabotage the version of you you’re becoming.

This episode goes beyond theory and into real-life application, with simple examples that highlight how procrastination, overbooking, and disorganization quietly create stress, while intentional systems, boundaries, and micro decisions create momentum and ease.

Listeners will walk away with a practical framework to reduce overwhelm, make clearer decisions, and create a business and life that feels more supportive instead of reactive.

If you’ve been feeling stretched, behind, or stuck in cycles that keep repeating, this episode offers a grounded way to reset and move forward with intention.

Together, they explore the concept of leverage and how entrepreneurs can shift away from overworking toward building businesses that support their lives rather than consume them.

Building a business that could be sold forces clarity around systems, financial visibility, repeatable client experiences, and brand equity that extends beyond the founder.

Drawing from her experience working with home staging businesses and conversations with buyers and sellers across multiple industries, Shauna Lynn breaks down the structural elements that make businesses attractive to buyers and sustainable for owners.

Listeners will gain practical insights into how stronger systems, cleaner financials, and consistent processes can reduce burnout while increasing both profitability and long-term value.
Even if you never plan to sell, building a business that could be sold changes how you lead it today.

With more than two decades in the interior design industry and over ten years running her own business, Sonia shares how her journey through multiple coaching programs shaped her perspective on what truly makes coaching valuable. Together, she and Shauna Lynn explore why many entrepreneurs hesitate to invest in support, how costly the wrong coaching fit can be, and why clarity about your needs is essential before committing to any program.

Sonia also introduces Kaivari, a platform she created to help interior designers connect with vetted coaches, trusted service providers, and a supportive peer network so they can grow sustainable businesses without navigating the process alone.

Listeners will walk away with practical guidance on identifying business gaps, asking smarter questions during discovery calls, and approaching coaching with confidence rather than guesswork.

Together, they break down the three numbers that matter most in business finances and explain why revenue alone is a misleading metric. Zahra shares how cash flow timing impacts daily decisions, why healthy profit margins determine long-term sustainability, and how understanding burn rate helps business owners make smarter choices about hiring, pricing, and growth. Rather than overwhelming listeners with accounting jargon, this episode focuses on using numbers as a strategic tool, not a source of fear.

Listeners will gain a clearer lens for spotting financial red flags, asking better questions, and making proactive decisions that support both growth and peace of mind.

She explains why people pleasing is not kindness, how it creates scope creep and emotional exhaustion, and why boundaries are not rigid walls but the container that makes great work possible.
   Listeners will learn how to spot the internal cues that signal a resentful yes, how to pause instead of reacting, and how to replace automatic compliance with clear, confident alternatives. Shauna Lynn also shares her practical “yes opportunities” framework to help business owners say no without shutting the door or sacrificing professionalism.

  ]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/69646940Tue, 03 Feb 2026 12:00:09 +0000Shauna Lynn SimonIn this milestone 100th episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn Simon tackles one of the most common and costly patterns she sees in women entrepreneurs - people pleasing. What often starts as being helpful or accommodating... Shauna Lynn breaks down how people pleasing shows up in real business decisions, from bending policies to rescuing clients and saying yes to timelines that are not yours to carry. She explains why people pleasing is not kindness, how it creates scope creep and emotional exhaustion, and why boundaries are not rigid walls but the container that makes great work possible.
   Listeners will learn how to spot the internal cues that signal a resentful yes, how to pause instead of reacting, and how to replace automatic compliance with clear, confident alternatives. Shauna Lynn also shares her practical “yes opportunities” framework to help business owners say no without shutting the door or sacrificing professionalism.
   If you are ready to protect your energy, your time, and the quality of your work, this episode will change how you think about boundaries. Share it with the woman in business who needs permission to stop overgiving.

  About Kandi Lee:
  Business Consultant for Helping Legacy-Led Women Embody Their Next Level
  with Identity Shifts, Automation & Sales Engines that Scale Freedom-Based Profit on Their Terms.
  
  I am the CEO & Co-founder behind The One-Eleven Network, with over 30 years of experience building real businesses before “coaching” was ever trending. What started as a $1.11 leap of faith has become a living legacy—and the strategic growth company for high-earning women ready to scale beyond the hustle.
  
  For over 30 years, I've had the honor of coaching over 100,000 business owners and entrepreneurs to scale into consistent, freedom-based profitability by engineering their sales systems, upgrading their identity, and building businesses that run with or without them.
  As a single mom running multiple businesses, I know firsthand what it’s like to feel stuck, broke, and overwhelmed while longing to create real change. In 1994, I faced my own “HOLY CRAP” moment—a divorce that left me with two suitcases, my daughter, and $200 to my name. That moment became the catalyst for a complete life redesign.
  
  Fast forward to today: I’m the founder of The One-Eleven Network, a multi–7-figure coaching and consulting company built on grit, strategy, and a dollar and eleven cents. Over the past two decades, we’ve helped thousands of entrepreneurs scale their businesses with clarity, confidence, and systems that work.
  
  At the heart of our success is the Cash Flow Compass™, a 5-pillar system designed to help business owners with:
  ➡ Mindset that expands capacity without forcing more
  ➡ Sales that land at premium price points without apology
  ➡ Time that prioritizes money-making moves only
  ➡ Profit that’s protected, not just earned
  ➡ Automation that makes your business work for you—and make you money while you sleep
  This holistic approach is why our clients stop hustling and start scaling quickly, strategically, and profitably.
  
  Along the way, I’ve sat at the table with the best—Mark Victor Hansen, Bob Proctor, Jack Canfield, Lisa Nichols—and learned what it takes to build a business that thrives without sacrificing your life.
  
  Whether it’s through our signature group masterminds, online training, or our innovative AI clone KANDILAND™, we provide the proven strategies, frameworks, and support women need to scale their businesses with clarity and confidence—without ever leading alone.
  I’ve been featured on CNBC, The Business Journal, HuffPost, HGTV, and more—but the spotlight isn’t on me. It’s on you: your results, your clarity, and the freedom you finally get to keep.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68469909Tue, 25 Nov 2025 12:00:09 +0000Shauna Lynn SimonIn this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast with Shauna Lynn Simon, entrepreneur and coach Kandi Lee shares how she turned $1.11 and two suitcases into a multi–seven-figure legacy.

  Together, they unpack the emotional side of rebranding: the guilt, fear, and resistance that surface when your business outgrows its original identity, and the freedom that comes from realigning your brand with who you’ve become. Listeners will gain insights into how to know when it’s time to rebrand, how to balance passion and profit, and why rebranding is less about starting over and more about stepping into clarity and confidence.
  
  If your brand feels “too small” for the business you’re building, this episode will remind you what’s possible when you let go and grow forward.

  If your brand feels “too small” for the business you’re building, this episode will remind you what’s possible when you let go and grow forward.

  Anne Dranitsaris, Ph.D., is a psychotherapist, leadership coach, and author who has spent over four decades helping people break free from the self-protective patterns that keep them stuck. Drawing from neuroscience, Jungian psychology, and attachment theory, she guides individuals and organizations to move beyond codependency, Imposter Syndrome, and people-pleasing to live from their Authentic Self.

With compassion and clarity, Anne offers a roadmap for healing that empowers people to stop abandoning themselves, reclaim their emotional needs, and step into the lives they were meant to lead.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67513573Tue, 02 Sep 2025 11:00:08 +0000Shauna Lynn SimonIn this episode of The Real Women Real Business Podcast, Shauna Lynn sits down with Dr. Anne Dranitsaris, a psychotherapist, leadership coach, and author of the upcoming book Not Broken, Just Delayed.

  Stacey shares how she turned a personal need into a science-backed framework that has helped thousands of entrepreneurs generate consistent, high-quality referrals without resorting to awkward asks, manipulative tactics, or gimmicks. She breaks down the often-misunderstood psychology behind referrals, explains why they don’t belong under prospecting or marketing, and offers a powerful new lens: the “three-legged stool” of sales. Listeners will learn how to nurture referral sources through intentional, meaningful touchpoints and why a handwritten thank-you note might be the highest ROI move you make this year.
  
  Whether your business is new or scaling, this episode will challenge you to think deeper, show up better, and build something truly sustainable by putting people first.

  Together, they explore how childhood conditioning around money still shapes your business decisions today, why clarity is the most overlooked but critical step in success, and how the brain’s “internal algorithm” (the reticular activating system) can be retrained to filter in opportunity instead of lack. Victoria shares simple, actionable strategies, like changing just one phrase, that can begin to shift everything.
  This episode is your permission slip to want more, earn more, and take aligned, unapologetic action. Tune in and then send it to the woman in your life who needs it just as much.

  About Linda Leary:
  
  Linda Leary is the founder and visionary behind Fishe, a women’s fishing apparel brand born out of her passion for the outdoors and her drive to make the angling world more inclusive. Before launching Fishe, Linda built a successful career in trucking logistics, and you might even recognize her from the History Channel’s reality TV series, Ice Road Truckers. After selling her trucking business over a decade ago, she took a bold leap into a totally different world: fishing apparel.
  
  Despite it being a field still largely dominated by men, she saw a clear opportunity to create bold, functional, and comfortable gear designed by women, for women. After years of hustle and heart, Fishe has grown from a startup in Anchorage, Alaska, to a nationally recognized brand known for its colorful, nature-inspired prints and commitment to empowering women to get outside and feel good doing so. Linda’s entrepreneurial spirit, dedication to community, and advocacy for women in the outdoors continue to inspire a new generation of anglers. When she’s not running the business or testing new gear on the water, Linda can be found planning women’s events through her other company, Women’s Fly Fishing, mentoring other women business owners, fishing with her friends in exotic places, or playing with her cute little granddaughter.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/66514260Tue, 01 Jul 2025 11:00:08 +0000Shauna Lynn SimonIn this episode of the Real Women Real Business podcast, Shauna Lynn sits down with Linda Leary, founder and president of Fishe, a women's fishing apparel brand that’s transforming the industry.

After losing nearly everything during the COVID-19 shutdown, Amber didn’t just rebuild - she reinvented, expanding her once home-based practice into a million-dollar, multi-location brand poised for national growth.
  
  You’ll hear how she leads with compassion, redefines industry norms (hint: no tipping required), and builds wealth by putting people first. This episode is packed with real talk about scaling through crisis, leading a mission-driven team, and turning hard-won lessons into a replicable, sustainable business model.
  
  If you’ve ever wondered how to build something bigger from the ashes - or how to franchise a business the right way - this one’s for you.

  About Ammber:
  
  Amber Briggle is the CEO of B-Well Enterprises, and the founder and owner of Soma Massage Therapy: a multi-award-winning business and the nation's most exciting new franchise opportunity! Amber became a massage therapist in 2004 and began Soma Massage Therapy in 2011. Through tenacity and determination she has literally built (and rebuilt, thanks to the pandemic!) a thriving massage therapy business and a promising new franchise brand.
  
  Amber graduated massage school in 2004, moved around the world, and finally settled in the Dallas area in 2009. Within a short time, she had more massage clients than her hands could handle in a day, and she was regularly booked for weeks, if not months, in advance. For a while, Amber would refer those clients to other therapists in the area who had more availability in their schedules, but it wasn’t long before she realized that business would be more reliable and stable by referring those clients to another therapist “in house” instead.

    About Kathryn M Lackey
    Kathryn Lackey is the founder of Heart of the Home Styling & Designs, a seasoned designer, entrepreneur, and author of Letters from Love’s Battlefield. With over 20 years of experience in design and renovation, Kathy's journey into this career began as a survival job following the devastating loss of her husband to sexual addiction. She turned her passion for design, particularly kitchen and bath design, into a thriving business, blending her real estate background with her deep understanding of creating “heart of the home” spaces that enhance property value. Kathy’s journey also includes years of caregiving, navigating divorce, and raising her children while managing her parents' real estate amidst her mother’s Alzheimer's.
    In 2019, Kathy embraced her entrepreneurial spirit by launching her own solopreneur kitchen design and home staging business, and soon after she relocated to Nashville for a fresh start. Her personal story took a transformative turn following her former husband's death, which led her to rediscover a journal of unsent letters to him. These letters inspired her book, Letters from Love’s Battlefield, which became a #1 Amazon new release and a Foundations Award winner. Through her story, Kathy now empowers women who have experienced trauma from sexual addiction, helping them heal and discover their true potential.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/62418063Tue, 22 Oct 2024 11:10:02 +0000Shauna Lynn SimonWhen Kathryn Lackey packed her bags and left Dallas for Nashville, she wasn't just moving cities—she was stepping into a new chapter of resilience and renewal.
