Réland Logan — Thu, 07 May 2026 15:00:00 +0100

What if breaking through the 3K to 5K monthly revenue plateau was not about doing more, but about doing what actually works?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with authority marketing strategist and business coach Stephanie Treasure to unpack what it truly takes to build visibility, credibility, and sustainable growth as a coach.

Stephanie Treasure helps ambitious coaches move from stuck and scattered to strategic and seen.

With an MBA in Marketing Management with honors from St. John University and a Bachelor of Science in Marketing from CUNY, Stephanie blends proven strategy with heart-driven impact.

In this conversation, Stephanie shares her journey from publishing a full-color real estate magazine to becoming a sought-after authority marketing coach for online business owners. She explains how visibility, PR, and community building laid the foundation for the work she does today, and how those same principles apply across industries.

Reland and Stephanie explore the deeper impact of entrepreneurship beyond revenue. From supporting causes like health advocacy, plant-based living, relationship growth, and personal transformation, to helping business owners reclaim control of their time, income, and confidence, this episode highlights how authority marketing fuels both income and purpose.

You will learn:

Why visibility is the foundation of scalable coaching businesses

How authority positioning helps you stand out in saturated markets

What actually moves the needle between 3K and 5K months

How marketing strategy supports impact, not just income

In this conversation, Lindsay shares her Luxe Leap and the defining moments that shaped her journey into entrepreneurship. From navigating personal loss to stepping into leadership, she opens up about trusting intuition, leaning into what makes you unique, and building momentum through consistency rather than chasing every new strategy.

Reland and Lindsay explore how branding, visibility, and lead generation intersect, why systems and productivity are essential for long-term success, and how fun and personality can become powerful differentiators in crowded markets.

If you are a woman entrepreneur, coach, creative, or service provider looking to grow your business with confidence, improve visibility, generate consistent leads, and build systems that support your life instead of consuming it, this episode is for you.

S01E56 From Burnout to Brand Clarity : Copywriting, AI & Growth | With Chloe Jenkins | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 15:00:00 +0100

What if your marketing did not feel exhausting, forced, or disconnected from who you really are?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with copywriter and messaging strategist Chloe Jenkins for a candid and insightful conversation about brand voice, visibility, creative burnout, and using AI without losing authenticity.

Chloe Jenkins helps women business owners turn the uniqueness of their work into messaging that actually connects and converts. With more than a decade of experience, including time in the ad agency world and an unexpected pivot into the wine industry after burnout, Chloe brings a rare blend of strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, and creative clarity to brand messaging.

In this conversation, Chloe shares her personal Luxe Leap, from agency burnout to wine marketing to building a business supporting wellness brands and creative service providers. She explains why so many entrepreneurs struggle to articulate what makes them different, how oversimplified messaging leaves opportunities on the table, and why deeply understanding the person behind the brand is essential before writing a single word.

Reland and Chloe dive into why traditional avatars and surface-level demographics often fail, how psychographics and lived experience shape powerful messaging, and why strategy must come before copy. They also explore how branding, messaging, and visibility intersect, and why being seen by the right people matters far more than reaching everyone.

A major focus of the episode is AI and copywriting. Chloe breaks down how to use AI tools to amplify your voice rather than replace it, why most outputs feel generic, and how strategic prompting and brand training can transform AI into a powerful creative assistant. From building custom GPTs to refining tone, tempo, and language, this conversation reframes AI as a tool for better thinking, not shortcut writing.

You will also hear practical insights on:

Why writing about yourself is harder than writing for clients

How burnout can signal the need for creative evolution

What makes messaging feel authentic instead of performative

Why visibility is about connection, not volume

How unique past experiences become your greatest brand advantage

Defining success through freedom, alignment, and energy

This episode is for women entrepreneurs, creatives, coaches, service providers, and brand builders who want to write marketing that sounds like them, connect with the right audience, and grow without burning out or sounding like everyone else online.

If you are standing on the edge of your own Luxe Leap and wondering how to find the words that make people say “I need this,” this conversation will give you clarity, permission, and practical perspective.

S01E55 Scaling With Integrity: Success, Revenue & Leadership | Kristen Hayer | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 16 Apr 2026 15:00:00 +0100

What does it take to scale not just a company, but the people, leaders, and teams inside it?

In this episode of Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with Kristen Hayer, Founder and CEO of The Success League, for a deeply grounded conversation on leadership, customer success, brand evolution, and what it truly means to build a lasting legacy in business.

Kristen brings more than 25 years of experience as a sales, marketing, and customer success executive in the tech and SaaS world. After leading award-winning customer success teams for fast-growing companies, she launched The Success League in 2015 to help organizations scale with customer impact at the center. Today, she is a recognized authority in customer success, a board advisor to early-stage tech companies, a podcast host, and the author of more than 100 thought leadership pieces in the field.

In this conversation, Kristen shares the pivotal moment that led her to start her business, how she identified a market gap early in the customer success movement, and why operator-led expertise matters more than theory in modern consulting. She explains how customer success has shifted from a reactive support function to a revenue-driving, leadership-critical discipline and why many companies are still structured in ways that work against the customer experience.

Reland and Kristen explore what happens when sales, marketing, and customer success operate in silos, how those silos quietly erode trust and growth, and why the future belongs to cross-functional leaders who understand the full customer journey. They also discuss why founders sometimes need to reclaim sales, how credibility changes when leadership stays close to revenue, and what brand evolution looks like as a company matures.

This episode also touches on visibility, thought leadership, and why social media is no longer the most reliable driver of meaningful growth. Kristen shares what has actually worked for her, from books and speaking to training programs that have created long-term impact across teams and companies.

Throughout the conversation, success is redefined not as revenue alone, but as the ripple effect of better leadership. Kristen reflects on training more than 10,000 professionals, working with hundreds of companies, and watching former individual contributors grow into leaders who now shape cultures of their own.

This episode is for founders, executives, SaaS leaders, customer success professionals, sales and marketing leaders, and anyone questioning how to scale with integrity, clarity, and long-term impact.

If you are standing at the edge of your own leap, building something meaningful and wondering how to lead it well, this conversation offers perspective, honesty, and practical insight from someone who has lived every stage of the journey.

S01E54 How to Turn Your Website Into a High Converting Sales Asset | Krista Walsh | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:00:00 +0100

What if your website did more than look good and actually worked as your strongest sales asset?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with website copywriter and messaging strategist Krista Walsh to talk about clarity, conversion, and building websites that attract high investment clients.

Krista is known for transforming digital dead ends into high converting brand assets for boutique agencies and high end service providers. With a sharp eye for voice, strategy, and sales psychology, she helps businesses position themselves as trusted authorities through messaging that actually moves people to action.

In this conversation, Krista shares her Luxe Leap story, from graduating university disillusioned with traditional career paths to moving to Spain, freelancing across Europe, and eventually building a thriving copywriting business. She opens up about why niching by industry never worked for her, how niching by business model changed everything, and why creativity suffers when messaging becomes too repetitive.

Reland and Krista dive deep into topics every service provider struggles with, including niching without boxing yourself in, the risks and rewards of building an agency, stepping back into your zone of genius, and why experimenting is not failure but data. Krista also shares why she shut down her website agency after a year, what she learned from leading a team, and how returning to copywriting reignited her passion for the craft.

The episode also explores controversial but practical ideas around website strategy, including whether every business really needs an About page, how poor messaging can actively hurt conversions, and why understanding buyer psychology matters more than following cookie cutter best practices.

If you are a service provider, agency owner, or creative entrepreneur who wants your website to attract better clients, convert with confidence, and reflect your true expertise, this episode will change how you think about messaging, positioning, and risk taking in business.

To connect with Krista Walsh, follow her on LinkedIn where she regularly shares insights on copywriting, website strategy, and messaging for high end brands. From there, you can access her website and newsletter to learn more about her work.

S01E53 Building Power & Equity Through Personal Brand | Carissa Begonia | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 15:00:00 +0100

What if entrepreneurship was not just about income but about liberation?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with business coach, LinkedIn strategist, and founder of ConsciousXchange, Carissa Begonia.

Carissa is a former Head of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Zappos and a LinkedIn Top Voice with more than 15 years of corporate leadership experience. Through her signature framework, The Five Currencies of Power, visibility, authority, access, influence, and income, she helps women and BIPOC entrepreneurs turn lived experience into powerful personal brands that attract aligned clients, corporate contracts, and high impact speaking opportunities.

In this deeply honest and energizing conversation, Carissa shares what inspired her own Luxe Leap from corporate leadership to entrepreneurship, why there was no plan B, and how trusting her intuition became the safest path forward. She opens up about choosing LinkedIn as her primary platform, navigating visibility as a woman of color, and how sharing real stories during pivotal cultural moments created momentum, community, and legacy.

Reland and Carissa discuss the power of originality in branding, why duplicating what already exists limits growth, and how authenticity and consistency build trust faster than chasing virality. The conversation also explores thought leadership in the age of sameness, why community now matters more than content alone, and how women can redefine success to include health, boundaries, and sustainability.

Carissa also shares how her work has evolved to focus on community building through the Thought Leadership Collective and a private community for women of color, with a bold mission to help 100 women of color business owners become millionaires. Together, they unpack what it truly means to build equity, influence, and economic power through business.

If you are a woman entrepreneur, thought leader, or creative who wants to build visibility without burnout, turn your voice into influence, and create a brand rooted in purpose, power, and community, this episode will shift how you think about success.

S01E52 From Survival Mode to Grounded CEO : Reclaiming Power | Amy Kelly | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 15:00:00 +0000

What if your life and business didn’t have to end just because your marriage did?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with strategic life and business coach Amy Kelly, known as the Grounded CEO of your life.

After surviving a high conflict divorce at just 27, Amy rebuilt her life from her childhood bedroom to creating a regulated remote income lifestyle, living in Costa Rica and traveling to over 40 countries. With nine years of experience supporting high level CEOs, Amy now helps ambitious women move from survival mode to grounded, confident, and fully self led.

In this deeply honest conversation, Amy and Reland explore the identity crisis no one warns women about after divorce, why so many high achieving women are secretly dysregulated, and how rebuilding from the inside out is the real power move. Amy shares how nervous system regulation, emotional truth, spiritual depth, and practical business strategy come together in her work and why true success starts with reconnecting to your inner power.

This episode also dives into visibility, authenticity in business, the importance of support and mentorship, and why one on one coaching can create deeper, lasting transformation. Amy opens up about fear, dreaming big again after heartbreak, and why women do not need to play small to make others comfortable.

If you are a woman navigating divorce, heartbreak, identity loss, or a major life transition while trying to hold your business or career together, this episode will remind you that your current situation does not define your future. You are allowed to dream again, take up space, and rebuild a life and business that truly feels like yours.

S01E49 Financial Strategy to turn Numbers Into Business Growth | Žaneta Noreikaitė | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 05 Mar 2026 15:00:00 +0000

What if your next bold business move was not about working harder, but about making smarter financial decisions?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with fractional CFO and financial strategist Žaneta Noreikaitė, founder of Astiva.

With a background in corporate finance at global companies like Amazon and Starbucks, Žaneta brings CFO-level insight to small and mid-sized businesses that need clarity, confidence, and control over their numbers. In this conversation, she shares why cash flow is the most critical metric for growth, why loans and grants alone are not sustainable, and how understanding your numbers can unlock both profitability and peace of mind.

This episode explores why so many businesses fail not because of poor products or weak demand, but because they simply run out of cash. Žaneta explains the difference between bookkeeping, tax compliance, and true financial strategy, and how business owners can shift from reacting to historical data to proactively planning for the future. The conversation also dives into pricing, packaging, overhead costs, and why so many women entrepreneurs consistently undercharge for their work.

Reland and Žaneta discuss how branding, finance, marketing, and operations intersect, why simplifying financial data is essential to reducing fear and decision paralysis, and how clean data combined with modern technology allows founders to make faster, smarter decisions. Žaneta also shares how she helps business owners move from financial overwhelm to clarity using simple dashboards, focused priorities, and realistic forecasting.

S01E47 How to Build Confidence on Camera and Attract Dream Clients | With Sara Berry | The Luxe Leap

Réland Logan — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 15:00:00 +0000

What if showing up on camera didn’t feel awkward ... but aligned, effortless, and actually fun?

In this episode of The Luxe Leap, host Reland Logan sits down with video confidence coach Sara Berry to talk about the real reason entrepreneurs struggle with visibility and how to finally get comfortable on camera.

If you’re a solo business owner, coach, consultant, or personal brand who knows you should be creating video content but keeps overthinking lighting, editing apps, or the right time to start, this conversation is your wake-up call.

In this episode, we cover:

* How to overcome camera anxiety as an entrepreneur
* The real reason adults overcomplicate video content
* Why mindset matters more than lighting, gear, or editing apps
* How to build trust online in the age of AI
* Why virality is not the goal and what actually brings clients
* The danger of AI avatars and brand bots when building trust
* How to stop comparing your Day 1 to someone else’s Day 652
* The fastest way to build confidence on video

Sara Berry shares her signature approach to helping business owners move from cringe to confident by focusing on three key areas: mindset, skillset, and toolset in that order.

Because here’s the truth: your future clients don’t need perfect. They need real.

Who this is for:

Coaches and consultants ready to grow their personal brand
Women entrepreneurs building visibility in 2025 and beyond
Service providers who want higher-ticket clients
Business owners intimidated by video marketing
Anyone navigating AI and wondering how to stay human online

Why video marketing matters more than ever:

With AI-generated content everywhere, trust is the new currency.

Video builds authority, credibility, connection, and conversion.

If you want dream clients to trust you before the sales call ever happens, learning to show up confidently on camera isn’t optional anymore. It’s essential.
