Helping Extraordinary Women Raise Up their Voice, Visibility & Business: Storyteller, Connector, & Coach for Women
Today, Kami Guildner brings you a conversation from the Visibility in a Noisy World roundtable she recently hosted with Dr. Cheryl Wood, Elizabeth DeMorais, and Veronica Bahn.
As they talked, something became really clear. They weren’t talking about tactics very much at all. They found themselves talking about trust and relationships, the importance of developing ideas worth sharing, how buyers are making decisions today, what it means to become known for your perspective, and why thought leadership has become such an important part of growing a business.
In This Episode:
- Why visibility isn’t about being everywhere anymore. It’s about becoming someone people remember.
- What’s changing in the way clients choose who they trust, hire, and recommend.
- How to rise above the noise by leading with your ideas instead of chasing algorithms.
- Why relationships, meaningful conversations, and strategic partnerships are becoming your greatest visibility advantage.
- How to use AI to strengthen your visibility while keeping your authentic voice at the center.
- Why the right rooms and the right people can change the trajectory of your business.
- Practical ways to create a visibility rhythm that builds trust, authority, and lasting momentum.

Kami Guildner has seen firsthand how meaningful conversations become trusted relationships. The right podcast doesn’t simply introduce someone to a new audience.

- How to create a podcast lead magnet that makes it easy for listeners to take the next step
- Why sending people to your website may actually reduce conversions and what to do instead

- Three powerful reminders for every entrepreneur about comparison, persistence, and recognizing the value of the gifts that come naturally to you

As the Extraordinary Women Ignite speaker series wraps up, Kami Guildner is bringing back one of her conversations with featured Ignite speaker Rhonda Renee.
Earlier this year, Kami had the joy of sitting down with Rhonda for Extraordinary Women Radio. Since she’ll be joining her on stage at Ignite this November, Kami wanted to reshare this conversation so listeners can get to know Rhonda and experience the wisdom she will be bringing to the community.
At Extraordinary Women Ignite, Rhonda will be presenting How to Effortlessly Fill Your Business Without Feeling Like You’re Selling Your Soul. Kami knows this message will resonate with so many women who want to grow businesses that are both prosperous and deeply aligned to who they are.
Ignite is where extraordinary women entrepreneurs gather to explore fresh ideas, expand what’s possible in their businesses, and build the relationships that help them grow with greater purpose, prosperity, and joy.
As you listen, notice what speaks to you. Where might your business be asking for greater alignment? What becomes possible when your work reflects who you truly are? And how might your business grow when you stop trying to fit someone else’s model of success and instead honor your own?
In This Episode:
- Why more women leaders are creating businesses that honor alignment, capacity, and long-term prosperity
- How life’s biggest transitions can become powerful invitations to lead with greater wisdom, purpose, and authenticity
- What it looks like to build a business that honors your energy, your nervous system, and the season you’re in
- The evolution from visibility built on performance to visibility rooted in truth, meaning, and lived experience
- How women are creating businesses that reflect who they are now and support the life they truly want to live
- What rooted leadership looks like and why presence, self-awareness, and healthy boundaries create lasting influence
- How intuition and embodied decision-making strengthen leadership and create greater clarity and confidence
- Why legacy is shaped not only by what we accomplish, but by how we lead every day
- The powerful permissions women are giving themselves as they step into greater visibility, authority, and impact
Ronda Renee believes that in a world facing unprecedented challenges from political transitions to global conflicts, climate crises, and societal divides, the discovery of purpose is no longer a luxury; it’s a necessity. When individuals align with their soul’s purpose, they create personal fulfillment and also contribute to the collective healing and progress needed in these demanding times. Her work helps people find their unique role in addressing today’s complexities with clarity, courage, and compassion. Since 2009, she has guided thousands of spiritual and industry leaders worldwide to uncover their Divine Contribution and live lives of deep meaning, purpose, and fulfillment.

Kami Guildner is joined by Felicia Searcy, transformational coach, author, speaker, creator of The Human Success Code, and a featured speaker at the 2026 Extraordinary Women Ignite Conference.
Women who have built meaningful businesses often reach a point where success becomes less about proving and more about standing in what they know.

Together, they explore alignment, authority, and the shifts that help women create success that feels expansive, meaningful, and true to who they are.

- How alignment creates the foundation for success and why vision must come before strategy and action
- What it means to move from being a manifestor trying to make things happen to a creator partnering with something bigger than yourself
- How women unknowingly create gaps in their success and what shifts when they reconnect with the vision that is calling them forward
- Why receiving is an essential part of prosperity and how expanding your capacity to receive changes everything
- How fulfillment, purpose, and impact become powerful drivers of prosperity beyond financial success alone
- Why stewardship of your gifts, wisdom, and experience is a critical part of stepping into your authority
- How trusting that life is supporting you creates a different way of leading, creating, and growing your business

Today, I’m thrilled to welcome back my friend and long-time client Jill Keuth, a transformational leadership coach, speaker, and community builder. Jill is the founder of Be Courageously You, where she guides women to dismantle internalized conditioning, reclaim their authentic identity, and lead with purpose and power.
Jill’s clients include high-achieving women across medicine, education, law, engineering, and corporate leadership—and in every room she enters, Jill is known for helping women root into their true selves, speak from embodied truth, and lead with clarity in uncertain times.
This episode is full of insight and heart. And just last week at the Extraordinary Women Ignite Conference, I honored Jill with our Rooted Flame Award—an award that celebrates a woman who has stepped boldly into embodied voice and leadership. Jill’s evolution this year has been powerful to witness, and this conversation is a reflection of that transformation.
In This Episode:
- What it means to be in a season of transition—personally, professionally, and culturally—and how to move through the uncertainty with grounded strength.
- How women can stop outsourcing stability and start sourcing identity, clarity, and agency from within.
- Why overachievement, perfectionism, and self-doubt are not personality traits, but conditioned survival strategies—and how to release them.
- How to recognize when you’re in the “in-between” and how to trust what’s unfolding—even when it feels like nothing’s working.
- What authentic power really means (and why it’s different from what we’ve been taught).
- How Jill’s anti-racism work, women’s book circles, and local leadership have shaped her business and message.
- The role of community in helping women reconnect with their power, purpose, and voice.
Jill Keuth is a transformational coach, speaker, and community builder who guides women to dismantle internalized conditioning, reclaim their authentic identity, and lead with courage, clarity, and purpose.

With over a decade as a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, she’s worked with leaders across sectors—from law and education to engineering and healthcare—helping them rise into self-led, values-aligned leadership.

What if the secret to sustainable business growth and confident leadership isn’t more hustle but better health?
Today, Kami and Michele talk about how true wellness expands our capacity for creativity, resilience, and soulful business growth. Michele shares how functional medicine, listening to our body’s signals, and releasing old beliefs about success can help women entrepreneurs shift from burnout to vitality. This conversation invites you to consider how aligning your health and mindset can unlock the clarity and energy you need to lead and grow with feminine wisdom.
In This Episode:
- How listening to your body’s wake-up calls can transform your wellness, mindset, and business growth by helping women entrepreneurs shift from exhaustion-as-a-badge-of-honor to leading with feminine wisdom in business.
- Why slowing down and embracing functional medicine while releasing outdated beliefs about success and wellness creates space for aligned mindset shifts, sustainable business growth, and empowered feminine leadership.
- How shifting mindset, rewriting self-worth stories, and applying brain science empower women entrepreneurs to break free from all-or-nothing thinking and design soulful business growth with clarity and confidence.
- Why true wellness is the foundation for clarity, creativity, and leadership, and how optimal health directly fuels feminine leadership, business growth, and the ability to scale with purpose.
- How cultivating internal capacity and energy healing helps women release burnout patterns, embrace CEO energy, and step into resilient, soulful business strategy.
- The hidden symptoms women often ignore, such as exhaustion, burnout, anxiety, and hormonal shifts that quietly sabotage leadership, confidence, and the energy needed to grow a purposeful business.
Michele Scarlet has spent over 15 years helping women feel strong, confident, and in control of their health. After facing her own struggles with fatigue, hormone imbalances, and weight loss resistance, she realized true health goes far deeper than diet and exercise. Turning to functional lab testing and a whole-body approach changed everything, and now she helps women uncover the root cause of low energy, hormonal imbalance, and weight loss struggles to achieve lasting results. As a Board-Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Certified Personal Trainer, and Women’s Health Coach, Michele blends science, strategy, and compassion in her work.

As a woman in the traditionally male-dominated field of wine, Jessica Kogan faced numerous challenges, including microaggressions and a lack of respect. However, instead of letting these obstacles defeat her, she used them as fuel to grow stronger and ultimately became a powerful force in her career. Her unwavering determination and resilience have taught her the power of self-belief, ultimately helping her find her voice and inspiring others to do the same.
In This Episode:
- Jessica talks about the unique obstacles faced by women in the traditionally male-centric wine industry
- Know the importance of transparency and engaging storytelling in successful wine marketing
- Discover the art of effectively juggling motherhood, career, and entrepreneurship for a fulfilling life
- Achieve personal growth and empowerment by tapping into your inner voice
Jessica Kogan’s career began with a bang, helping brands like Donna Karan, Elizabeth Arden, and Urban Decay develop communications strategies and reinvigorate their image. But she was also forming a healthy obsession with something novel at that time: the internet. Ultimately, the call of opportunity coming from the digital world became too loud to ignore, so she picked up. After continued success aiding major players like Prada, Gucci, and Giorgio Armani in carving out their digital niches, she found herself ready for something new. She co-founded Cameron Hughes Wine and never looked back. Twenty-one years later, it remains a leader in DTC wine sales — and Jessica, now serving as their Chief Growth & Experience Officer, remains a strategy powerhouse within it and all brands nestled under the Vintage Wine Estates umbrella.
“I just would like to see more women around the table so that there’s more of an equal balance and so that we could actually get our best work done.”~Jessica Kogan

I am a big fan of the work of the Women’s Foundation across our nation. I have sat on the trustee board and served the Colorado Women’s Foundation for over a decade. And while I am an honorary trustee now and no longer an active board member, I believe in its mission and vision more than ever. A future where Colorado women and girls of every background and identity prosper.
Some of the proudest professional moments of my life are sparked by my engagement with the Women’s Foundation of Colorado. The work the organization is making from philanthropic giving, meaningful research and essential advocacy work, to creating systematic changes in our state is near and dear to my heart.
As we wrap up this Women’s History Month, I’m excited to introduce you to Christina Gordon, a co-founder and CEO of the Women’s Foundation of Boston. When Christina reached out to me for an interview, I was an instant yes! She had come across research that had indicated that only 1.9% of all charitable giving in the US is directed toward nonprofits that serve women and girls and that investing in women is high-impact investing. The data shows that investing in women has a multiplier effect. Women reinvest 90% of their incomes in their families and their communities, creating positive economic returns across generations and throughout communities.
In This Episode:
- Christina talks about how they started the Women’s Foundation of Boston
- The massive underinvestment in women and girls domestically
- How they impacted thousands of Greater Boston women and girls
- Their mission on creating and funding economically empowering programming for Greater Boston women and girls

- Their focus of funding on programming that will really yield high salaries
- She shares one of the stories from an organization they funded that stands out for her
- Why investing in women has lifted up entire communities
Christina Gordon is a former assistant fund manager and technology industry equity analyst. Seeing a huge opportunity to make a difference in her community, she and her team joined together to start the Women’s Foundation of Boston. She is a trustee of a private foundation, a member of Women Moving Millions and currently sits on the board of Rosie’s Place, a sanctuary for poor and homeless women in Boston.
“Investing in women really is one of the strongest indicators for a successful economy.” ~Christina Gordon

It was such a beautiful time to celebrate the accomplishments of women entrepreneurs around the globe. I held my Extraordinary Women Connect gala on International Women’s Day where we had an amazing lineup of our circle of inspiration, facilitators and a room full of extraordinary women doing extraordinary things. And so I love when I can go to a conference and walk away with learnings myself as well as sharing some of my insights and some of my teachings that I do. I’m going to be doing monthly events all year long this year! You can check out my website to find out what’s going on.
I love inner work and today, we dive into why Rachel Rider believes that the first relationship any leader must work on is the one they have with themself. When we do the inner work with ourselves, our relationship with our outer world and our other relationships change. The more we do our own inner work, the more we respond from a place of clarity and compassion instead of reactivity. The more we do the inner work, the more we change the world. I am sure you’re going to love Rachel’s story as an entrepreneur and her wisdom.

Rachel Rider founded MettaWorks in 2015 after a distinguished career in HR, receiving executive coaching certification from Columbia University, and extensive training in meditation, Somatic Experiencing, and Polarity Therapy with the aim of bringing leaders tools to unlock effective, long-lasting change in concert with the body.

Today I am excited to introduce you to our guest, Gerry Poirier, the founder and CEO of AngeLink. She launched AngeLink from her home two years ago and has since turned an idea into a top-tier web and mobile app that’s processed close to $1 million in donations from across the nation.
Gerry is a catalyst for positive impact with a passion for advancing women and girls in STEM. She founded AngeLink with a vision to bring innovative solutions to social change through life-changing technology.

- Their foundation’s six pillars of giving
- Her advice to women who are into capital fundraising
- How her grandmother inspired her to give back to the community
- The opportunity to give small amounts of money to people and really change their life
- How they make sure that their users are safe when using their platform
- How they use gamification that differentiates them from others
- How they build a community where women feel safe and can come together even with a small amount of money to support each other
Details of the AngeLink + Extraordinary Women Collaboration
I am thrilled to collaborate with AngeLink. Through this partnership, AngeLink and Extraordinary Women are empowering budding and established female entrepreneurs with greater access to funding for their businesses and business ideas, through AngeLink’s trusted crowdfunding platform. Select fundraisers will have the chance to receive a $1,000 Angel Grant from the AngeLink Community Foundation to support their business’s or nonprofit’s fundraiser.
- Timeline: This partnership will run from mid-February 2023 through the end of March 2023.
- Audience/participants: Kami Guildner’s community (which spans many forms) and other Denver women’s communities.
- Eligibility: Interested participants must have an active business or business idea, must set up a fundraiser on the AngeLink platform, and must include “#EWC” (short for Extraordinary Women Connect) in their fundraiser title to be considered for an Angel Grant. Apply to the AngeLink Platform here. Be sure to post your active campaign on the Extraordinary Women Connect Facebook Community so that we can support your fundraising efforts! (and tag @KamiGuildner when you launch it on any social platform).
- Angel Grants: In an effort to support female entrepreneurs, the AngeLink Community Foundation will donate to the cause! ACF is looking to give one merit-based $1,000 grant to the campaign organizer(s) who successfully raise $2,000 or more on AngeLink, per group of ten fundraisers that meet or exceed their $2,000 goal. (i.e. If twenty #EWC fundraisers are created and reach their goal, AngeLink Community Foundation will issue two Angel Grants. In any case, the maximum number of Angel Grants given would be five.)
- Extra Incentive: AngeLink will also promote the grant winners’ businesses across our social media platforms to our community of 50,000+ followers.
