Reclaim Your Voice
Reclaim Your Voice is a confidence in business podcast for women who know they are capable of more and are ready to lead with greater clarity, authority and self trust. Hosted by confidence coach and speaker Savanna Madden, this show explores what it really takes to grow into your next level of leadership as your business evolves.
Inside each episode, Savanna shares honest conversations and powerful reflections on identity, decision making, visibility, boundaries and the real experience of being a business owner. This is not about performing confidence or following someone else’s formula. It is about building grounded confidence through alignment, self leadership and using your voice with intention.
You will hear solo episodes, guest interviews and practical insights designed to support established women in business who are navigating growth, expansion and bigger opportunities.
If you are building something meaningful and want to feel more confident in how you lead, speak and show up in your business, you are in the right place.

James Aconley is the Principal of four Pauline Quirke Academy theatre schools across North and East Yorkshire, supporting over 500 children every weekend. In this episode, James shares how he scaled a performing arts education business while keeping the personal touch, building a strong team culture, and putting confidence and life skills at the centre of every decision.
We talk about leadership as your business grows, how to manage multiple teams across multiple locations, and how to build trust with parents and students when you cannot be everywhere at once. James also shares what it is like running a business alongside his wife Nat, why personal brand matters even under a national franchise umbrella, and how his production company Be Amazing Arts and his adult musical theatre choirs keep him creatively fulfilled.
If you are a theatre school owner, acting coach, performing arts teacher, or creative business owner looking for practical leadership insights and a reminder to stay aligned with your why, this conversation will leave you feeling grounded and inspired.
