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.

267: Dismantling the Imposter Complex with Tanya Geisler
The Imposter Complex isn’t just self-doubt—it’s a complex system that thrives on high achievement and keeps you stuck in perfectionism, comparison, and fear of visibility.
In this episode, I’m joined by Tanya Geisler, a renowned leadership coach and speaker who’s spent over 15 years helping people dismantle the Imposter Complex and step into their ICONIC impact.
We talk about the 12 lies the Imposter Complex tells you, how to spot its behavior patterns, and how to shift out of over-functioning and into clarity and self-trust.
This one’s a must-listen if you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “good enough,” “ready enough,” or “qualified enough” to take up space and lead.
In this episode:
- What the Imposter Complex actually is—and why high-achievers are most affected
- The 12 lies it tells you and how to interrupt the spiral
- Why visibility is so hard for women (and what to do about it)
- How to shift from proving to being
- Why “capacity” and “clarity” are crucial for reclaiming your power
- The role of rituals and sacred pauses in recalibrating your worth
