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.

237: Identifying and Releasing Shame with Allison Guilbault
Shame is one of the most powerful yet quiet forces that can keep us from truly owning who we are and going after what we want. It sneaks in through past experiences, societal expectations, and self-imposed beliefs—keeping us small, stuck, and second-guessing ourselves.
In this episode, I sit down with Licensed Therapist and Mindset & Transformation Coach, Allison Guilbault, to dive deep into how shame shows up in our lives, how we can recognize its grip, and most importantly—how to let it go. Allison shares her personal experiences with shame, from climbing the corporate ladder only to feel miserable at the top, to quitting drinking and realizing how shame played a role in her personal struggles.
We break down what shame really is, how it affects the way we show up, and tangible ways to start releasing it. Whether you’ve felt weighed down by guilt, self-doubt, or fear of judgment, this episode will give you the tools and awareness to start shifting out of shame and into confidence and empowerment.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
✔️ What shame actually is and why it’s such a heavy emotion
✔️ How shame subtly controls your thoughts, actions, and confidence
✔️ The connection between shame, self-worth, and decision-making
✔️ Why bringing shame into the light is the key to overcoming it
