  •  How Collaboration Protects Your Energy and Grow Your Business with Holli Howard
    Dec 9 2025

    Send us a text

    Hey Boss Ladies,

    Welcome back! In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Holli Howard, founder of Positive Living Coaching, a BOSS lady who has pivoted not once, not twice, but three times to create a purpose-driven business supporting women healing from childhood trauma.

    We get real about how trauma impacts self-worth, the importance of volunteering before making a major career move, and how collaboration can protect your energy and scale your business faster. Holly breaks down what it means to shift from corporate structure to CEO mindset, how to work in your zone of genius, and why hiring help isn’t just smart, it’s essential.

    We also talk about our own collaboration journey (yes, the journals, the courses, the design magic ✨) and how partnerships like ours help bring bold visions to life. This one is a full-on masterclass in doing business with heart, alignment, and power.

    Grab your notebook, you're gonna want to jot some of this down.

    💡What You’ll Walk Away With:

    • Holli’s journey through 3 powerful career pivots
    • How volunteering can open unexpected doors (and job offers!)
    • Making the leap from side hustle to full-time CEO
    • Structuring your business to serve YOU
    • The importance of energy-protecting collaborations
    • Why you should only operate in your zone of genius
    • How trauma-informed support creates massive ripple effects
