The Bubbles Effect: Wednesday Power Hour with Laura Aura
Hey y'all! Today I’m back after a three-week break (a little rusty and with less-than-perfect audio 🙈), but this conversation is SO worth the listen.In this episode of The Bubbles Effect, I’m joined by Laura Aura, dynamic speaker, personal growth coach, and host of The Gutsy Podcast. We talk about what it really looks like to make “gutsy moves” in life and business 🙌Laura opens up about growing up in a toxic environment, finding her voice through podcasting, and how becoming a mom was the catalyst for changing everything. ✨ We dig into intuition, burnout, people-pleasing, and that sneaky habit of building businesses that don’t actually feel good anymore.You’ll hear us chat about:Why gutsy moves are often tiny daily decisions...not just huge life pivotsHow to audit your business for alignment (and what to ruthlessly let go of)Using your body and intuition as a compass instead of just “shoulds” and hustleThe importance of fun, connection, and actually liking the business you’ve builtQuick heads up: the sound quality isn’t my best on this one (still working out kinks with tools and waiting on new equipment!), but the conversation is awesome, especially if you’ve been feeling the nudge to change something in your business or life.Connect with Laura at lauraaura.com and find The Gutsy Podcast wherever you listen. 💛Thanks for tuning in and I’m so happy to be back, and I’ll see you on Friday for more mindset, marketing, and momentum (and some champers) 🥂

The Bubbles Effect: Marketing + Mindset Monday
Welcome back to The Bubbles Effect, where mindset, marketing, and momentum meet 🔥In this short episode, I’m diving into two powerful themes: how Gen Z is changing the way we search online and the reminder we all need to just take the leap.We’ll explore data showing that 86% of Gen Z now searches for products on TikTok (yes, you read that right!) and what that means for your marketing strategy as the next generation’s buying power grows. Then, I’m switching gears into mindset mode with a dose of real talk about life’s brevity, trusting your gut, and moving forward...even when it’s scary.Because whether it’s trying a new platform, launching that dream idea, or simply saying yes to something new, the magic happens when you stop waiting and start doing. ✨Tune in, get inspired, and remember: just like bubbles, we rise to the top.🥂Read more here

The Bubbles Effect: Wednesday Power Hour with Ari Bliss
In this week’s Power Hour on The Bubbles Effect, I’m joined by Ari Bliss, a professional ballerina turned mindfulness coach and podcaster 🩰 Our conversation beautifully blends movement, mindset, and the magic of staying present. We talk about how early discipline (like ballet or sports) teaches lifelong lessons in collaboration, resilience, and self-awareness, even when we don’t realize it. Ari shares how she transitioned from the stage to helping others reconnect with their bodies and minds through mindfulness and movement, and why giving ourselves space to feel, move, and heal can open up powerful new energy in life and business. ❤️Whether you’re building a brand, creating content, or just trying to slow down long enough to breathe, this conversation is a gentle reminder that awareness is where momentum begins. ✨ Connect with Ari:Podcast: Growth, Grace & GratitudeYouTube: Ballet DailyInstagram & Threads: @growthandgracemindset
