  • How Female Entrepreneurs Step Into CEO Energy | Ep 39
    Apr 12 2026

    If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to build a business, you’re not alone—and it might not be a motivation problem. In this episode of Powerful on Purpose, Leslie Capps sits down with Kathleen Lawson, a business strategist who helps female solopreneurs step into their CEO role through structure, strategy, and intentional action.

    Kathleen shares how many women leave corporate careers with incredible expertise—but struggle to translate that into a sustainable business. Why? Because suddenly, you’re responsible for everything: sales, marketing, systems, and delivery. Without the right business structure and routines, it’s easy to feel scattered, stuck, or constantly behind.

    In this conversation, Kathleen breaks down how structure creates freedom, reduces decision fatigue, and allows you to focus on what you do best. She also shares practical strategies for getting your first clients, avoiding common startup mistakes (like overbuilding before selling), and growing your business in a way that aligns with your life.

    If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building with clarity, this episode will give you a grounded, actionable path forward.

  • Rewire Your Subconscious: Dr. Alena Candova on Nervous System Healing | Ep 38
    Apr 12 2026

    What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t mindset—but your subconscious programming and nervous system? In this episode of Powerful on Purpose, Leslie Capps sits down with Dr. Alena Candova, a subconscious reprogramming and neurocognitive specialist, to explore how neuroscience, trauma, and emotional patterns shape our reality—and how to finally shift them.

    Dr. Alena shares how early life experiences wire the nervous system, creating hidden beliefs about self-worth, safety, and success that drive our behaviors today. If you’ve ever wondered why willpower isn’t enough—or why you keep repeating the same patterns—this conversation will give you a deeper understanding of what’s really happening beneath the surface.

    Through her “Grace Over Grit” approach, Dr. Alena explains how real transformation comes from learning to work with your nervous system, release stored emotional energy, and reconnect with your body—not forcing change through discipline alone.

    You’ll walk away with practical tools to begin regulating your nervous system, building awareness, and gently rewiring subconscious beliefs so you can step into more ease, clarity, and self-leadership.

    Free Gift: Dr. Alena is offering a complimentary discovery call for the first 10 listeners—grab your spot below.
