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.

575: 3 Mistakes That Are Sabotaging Your Productivity with Louise Miller
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You think you have a productivity problem. But what if the way you've been defining productivity is the actual problem?`
Today’s guest, Louise Miller, was the person everyone handed things to because she always got them done. She got promoted into roles she didn't even want, kept pushing harder, and kept saying yes... until her body finally forced her to stop. What she found on the other side completely changed how she works and how she teaches others to work.
Louise believes that the goal of productivity isn’t to get more done in less time. Instead, she reframes it: What if productivity is actually about doing what's important, as efficiently as you can, to create space for what you love?
We're rushing and filling every nook and cranny of our time because we think it's the thing that gets us to calm, to freedom, and to finally being ahead. But the irony is that it's completely counterproductive.
In this episode:
- Being "good at productivity" can actually burn you out
- A new definition for productivity
- The treehouse concept
- The 3 mistakes that are sabotaging your productivity: not focusing on the right things, not setting yourself up for success, and not working on your business
- Your to-do list might be making you feel like a failure
- How to stop tying your self-worth to what you did or didn't get done today
- The pause-reflect-choose cycle and how to use it in the tiny moments between tasks
- Why slowing down is not the opposite of productivity
