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 266: Control Is Keeping You Stuck
You say you’re ready for change—but are your actions aligning with that truth?
In this episode of the Powerback® series, we’re calling out the sneaky ways control shows up as procrastination. That curated plan, the hours “tweaking” your website, the spreadsheet that suddenly feels urgent… these tasks might feel productive, but they’re often clever distractions from the bold move you actually need to make.
LauraAura breaks down how to know when you’re in a control loop, how to spot the difference between perceived productivity and intentional momentum, and what happens when you release your white-knuckled grip and move anyway.
This is your permission slip to stop spinning in circles—and start making the moves that change everything.
In this episode:
- Why control is often just procrastination in disguise
- How to know when you’re “tinkering” instead of taking real action
- What true intentional control looks and feels like
- A powerful client story about visibility, speaking gigs, and the move that changed everything
- Three questions to get out of the loop and into forward motion
