Rich Lady Revolution: The Embodied Era Podcast

What if your next wave of dream clients is already sitting right under your nose?Most of us were taught to chase leads one at a time. A client here, a client there, a lot of energy out and not much coming back. Networking leaves us exhausted, partnerships get messy, and we walk away wondering why it feels so icky.In this episode, Diane shares the Super Connector Strategy she teaches inside the Rich Lady Revolution Membership. It turns word of mouth from an afterthought into a real strategy that brings bulk qualified leads, built on trust, alignment and your own values.This is content you won’t find in a textbook. Diane built it from lived experience, plenty of mistakes and watching her clients go through the same struggles.Ready to go deeper?✨ Rich Lady Revolution: The Membership ($149/month, no lock-in contracts).

What happens when you spend a decade helping other women step into their power while quietly abandoning your own?Diane is away with the family for the Queensland school holidays, so co-author and long-time ThoseSisters community member Suzanne Read takes the host's chair. She kicks off our Beyond the Book series, where we sit down with the 10 co-authors of Diane's sixth book, The Rich Lady Revolution: The Embodied Era.Our first guest is Alfina Lofaro, author of Chapter 9 (page 130). Alfina is a relationship expert, kinesiologist, speaker and author of Love Deliberately: How to Be Less Shit at Relationships. She is also one of Diane's very first coaches, 13 years before ThoseSisters existed.In this raw and generous conversation, Alfina shares:The full-circle moment when Diane brought her on stage and called her "the reason I wanted to do this", and how it healed years of hidden shameThe exhaustion of being one of the hardest-working and lowest-paid coaches in a company she gave 10 years toWhat it cost her: two best friends walking away in the same week, 40 kilograms regained and not recognising the woman in the mirrorWhy the muscle test said "it's not the money, it's your relationship with yourself"How she became someone she enjoys spending time with, and the simple rule that changed everything: never break a promise to yourselfGrowing up as one of four competitive sisters, and the anonymous gift at a ThoseSisters retreat that redefined sisterhood for herWhy the richest person in the room might not have the most money, but the richest relationshipsMemorable lines:"I had spent 10 years helping other people step into their power while quietly abandoning my own.""If I chose that, then I could choose something else.""I don't break promises to me anymore.""When you get good at relationships, you get a rich life."📖 Rich Lady Revolution: The Embodied Era - Order it here: www.those2sisters.com/product-page/the-rich-lady-revolution-the-embodied-eraConnect with Suzanne Read, Owner of Coolabine Retreat and Life Beyond the Grief:🌐Website: suzannegomes.com.au/📲 Facebook: www.facebook.com/sread.btw📲 Instagram: www.instagram.com/suzanne.e.read/Connect with Alfina Lofaro, Kinesiology and Coaching:🌐Website: www.alfinalofaro.com/📲 Facebook: www.facebook.com/alfina.lofaro📲 Instagram: www.instagram.com/alfinalofaro/Connect with Diane and Michelle Anne, thosesisters:🌐 Website: www.those2sisters.com/🔗 Join the Rich Lady Membership: www.those2sisters.au/membership🔗 All the links: www.those2sisters.au/t2s-quick-links

I'm doing something a little different with you this week. I recorded part of one of my Empress Circle coaching calls with my client Paula "Porscha" Burgess of Beyond The Maze, and what started as a coaching session turned into one of my favourite conversations on this podcast.Paula used to feel far more at home in rooms full of men than rooms full of women, race car driver energy, all armour, absolutely no interest in "flowers in the hair." Then a last minute swap saw her walk into one of my retreats instead of the men's retreat she'd already planned to attend, and I watched everything shift for her. She's candid with me about the guard she walked in with, the moment she realised there was no judgement in that room, and how six months on, she's gone from my Empress Circle to running her own business transformation event.I also get her to walk me through Business By Design, her brand new event on the Sunshine Coast Hinterland this November. It's a small group, one on one facilitated experience built for the ADHD brain, where you audit your business, build and actually implement a 90 day plan on the spot, walk away with your own AI assistant, and even write a chapter for a book. If you've ever sat through a conference and gone home with a folder full of ideas you never actioned, this is the opposite of that, and I genuinely wish I'd had this offered to me earlier in my own business.This is Structure, Strategy and Support in action, and it's a reminder that sometimes the armour you think is keeping you safe is the very thing keeping you from the room you actually belong in.Episode 269, Porscha's first appearance on the podcast ⁠https://open.spotify.com/episode/1qD3NKVrmxnTSLHpBwkkqO?si=d309338214e9482b⁠Connect with Paula Burgess, Beyond the Maze:Business By Design with Paula Burgess, Sunshine Coast Hinterland, 25 to 28 November https://resources.beyondthemaze.com.au/bbd-eoi⁠Paula Burgess, Beyond The Maze ⁠https://beyondthemaze.com.au/Facebook www.facebook.com/beyondthemazeInstagram beyond_themazeConnect with us - Diane and Michelle Anne, Thosesisters:Rich Lady Revolution, The Membership www.those2sisters.au/membershipOur Retreats www.those2sisters.com/retreatsPlan, Produce, Publish Podcast www.those2sisters.au/plan-produce-publish-podcastDiane McKendrick, Socials Instagram: dianemckendrickFacebook: www.facebook.com/diane.mckendrickThose Sisters, website www.those2sisters.com

Welcome to a brand new series I'm kicking off with you, Beyond the Book. You've read her chapter, now hear her story.First up is someone I adore. Tash Johnston, chapter eight of our sixth book, The Rich Lady Revolution: The Embodied Era, and co-founder of Farm Angels, the charity that's supported Australian farmers through drought and disaster for 12 years, raising over $30 million along the way.What most people don't know is what put her on that path. As a young girl, Tash watched her mum break down on the kitchen floor when the banks were circling their family farm, and later learned her parents had a suicide pact if it all came crashing down. That's the seed of everything she's built since.We also get real about what it cost her. The breakdown behind the Australian of the Year Award. The imposter syndrome. The perimenopause she didn't even know she was in. And how retreats, community and a friend who wouldn't let her hide brought her back to herself, all the way to co-authoring her chapter and training in breathwork.This is Self Belief, Support and Spirituality in action. Your whisper is usually the thing worth listening to.Ready to stop performing and start rebuilding from the inside out?Connect with us - Diane and Michelle Anne, Thosesisters.Website: https://www.those2sisters.com/Join us inside the Rich Lady Revolution Membership, $149 a month, no lock-in contracts.

Real relationships are the new currency, and this episode proves it. In this instalment of The Rich Lady Revolution, we sit down with Asseneth Quintero of Impactfully Small, a fractional general manager who has spent her career helping small to medium businesses grow across industries and countries, including scaling one business from seven million to twenty five million dollars, while growing the people inside it just as much as the numbers.Asseneth shares what it actually looks like to build a one team, one goal culture, why breaking down silos matters as much as any strategy, and how her work now gives leaders access to senior, trusted support for major projects and sustainable growth, without the cost or commitment of a permanent hire. We talk about the hidden cost of doing it all yourself, why asking for help is responsible leadership rather than weakness, and how normalising support is one of the biggest levers against burnout.This is Structure and Support in action, because sustainable growth was never meant to come at the cost of your health, your family or your peace.Ready for more profit and peace in your own life and business?

Money doesn't create character, it amplifies it. In part two of this conversation, we pick up right where we left off with Lucienne Miller from Socially Constructed, going deeper into embodiment, nervous system safety and what true wealth actually means once you stop measuring it in dollars alone.Lucie shares her own path from severe postnatal illness and OCD to building a career in brain friendly leadership, trauma informed workplace design and positive psychology, shaped in no small part by raising four kids as a military family who move around the world. Together we unpack Rich Lady Rule Two, take messy but aligned action, and Rich Lady Rule Three, fulfilment first, finances follow, and why neuroplastic change needs discomfort, but never at the cost of safety.This is the difference between being stretched and being flooded, and why co-regulation, in a community, in a retreat room, in a conversation like this one, is what makes the stretch survivable.This is what we call Self Belief and Support in action. Redefining rich was never about choosing between profit and peace, it was always about having both.Ready for more profit and peace in your own life and business?

We've all done the seminars, read the books, and nodded along to the podcasts, so why does it still feel like nothing has actually changed? In this episode of The Rich Lady Revolution, we sit down with Lucie from Socially Constructed, who works with corporates, militaries and major firms on regenerative leadership, wellbeing and nervous system science, to talk about the gap between knowing something and actually embodying it.Lucie explains why Western culture treats embodiment as unsafe, why knowledge feels so much safer than feeling, and how trauma can make the body feel like unfamiliar territory. She reminds us that sensations and emotions have to be learned and named before we can work with them, and she is refreshingly honest about the danger of quick fix nervous system claims. This is a slow, deep, soul level conversation about learning to come home to yourself, at your own pace.This one is part one of two, so keep an ear out for round two coming soon.This is the Self Belief and Spirituality Checkpoints in action, because real change was never going to happen in your head alone.Ready for more profit and peace in your own life and business?

In this episode of The Rich Lady Revolution, we sit down with Sarah Rosse, a mother, storyteller and now published author, who turned one of the hardest seasons of her life into her first book, Who Are You Anyway? After her son's mental health crisis in 2023, Sarah began journaling her way through fear, shame and an identity shift that so many mothers go through but no one warns them about. She shares how choosing to own her story, rather than hide it, became the thing that helped other women feel less alone. This conversation is proof that your hardest chapter can become someone else's turning point, and that real connection starts the moment we stop performing and start telling the truth.Ready for more profit and peace in your own life and business?

Not knowing where you stand is its own kind of stress. In this episode of The Rich Lady Revolution, we sit down with Katherine Smallshaw, Senior Associate and Director at Pullos Lawyers on the Gold Coast, to talk about the truth of family law that most of us only ever hear about from Google, a friend, or an ex.Katherine works across parenting, property and domestic violence matters, along with some of the most complex work in family law, including trusts, tax issues and high risk parenting cases. She talks openly about the emotional weight of walking clients through processes that are often delayed, and often unfolding on someone's hardest days.Her message is simple, and it matters. Get the facts before you get swept up in fear. Knowledge changes the way you make decisions, even the hard ones.We also cover how to reach Katherine's firm for that first conversation, why you are always allowed to change legal representation, and what good representation actually looks like. Someone who listens, tailors their strategy to you, and thinks through the practical implications before you have to ask.If you or someone you love is facing separation, or simply wants to understand where they stand, this is the episode to share.This is what we call the Support Checkpoint in action. You were never meant to navigate the hardest seasons alone.Ready for more profit and peace in your own life and business?

Lovely lady, we're deep into season four, The Embodied Era, and today's guest is someone I connected with the moment we sat down together at Curated Circle. Kindred spirits, instantly. Meet Marama Carmichael, founder of Oracle Tree, a marketing agency that refuses to be cookie-cutter, and honestly, one of the most aligned conversations about business I've had on this podcast.The night the house burnt downMarama shares the defining moment that changed the entire trajectory of her life and business. She was running a natural therapy centre, working ridiculous hours for no money, chasing the bragging rights of an eight-room premises, when a house fire took everything she owned. Standing outside in the rain that night, she made a decision that became the seed of Oracle Tree.Having a business versus being self-employedWe get into the real difference. If you're exchanging time for money with no one else doing the work, you're self-employed, and there's nothing wrong with that. But a business runs without your constant time and input, and that transition doesn't happen by flipping a switch. It happens by trusting the right experts, with your guidance.You can outsource the expertise, but never the alignmentThis might be my favourite line from the whole conversation. Marama unpacks the difference between abdicating responsibility to an expert and staying the visionary who holds the "why" while someone else handles the "how."The whisper and the wounding, translated into marketingWe talk about how Marama's process mirrors the exact language I teach around the whisper, the wounding, and listening to what feels true in your body before you listen to what a coach or agency tells you to do.The Oracle TreeMarama walks us through her full framework. Roots as your strategy (who, what, why), the trunk as your brand (how you turn up), branches as your channels, leaves as single pieces of content, and canopy as the consistency across all of it. If you've ever wondered why hiring five different experts for five different channels leaves your business feeling disjointed, this is why.Cut off the dead branchesMarama's advice for any channel you're not actually using, stop pouring resources into it. A dead branch just hangs there and drains the tree.Go back and think about your own tree. If something feels out of alignment, ask yourself whether you've stopped listening to the whisper and started giving your power away to someone else's decisions instead of your own.🌳 Oracle Tree - book a genuine strategy call👉 https://oracletree.com.au/apply-for-a-strategy-session/📱 Instagram, Facebook and other socials: @oracletree📚 Free e-books and resources available on the Oracle Tree website under the Resources tab📩 Sign up to the Oracle Tree newsletter for an upcoming three hour workshop on branding, AI and lead funnels💛 The Rich Lady Revolution Membership - weekly accountability, rich conversations and a community of women who get it, from $149/month with no lock-in👉 https://www.those2sisters.au/membership
