In this solo episode, I’m talking about grit—the unglamorous, sweaty, get-back-up-again kind. The kind that shows up when your house burns down. (Yep, that happened.)

I take you through the real stories that taught me wha...

What If You’re Not Too Much—Just in the Wrong Room?

In this very first episode of Her Creative Empire, Leah shares the spark that inspired the podcast—an honest reflection on female friendship, ambition, motherhood, and the quiet longing for deeper connection. She opens up about always feeling like she didn’t quite fit in traditional circles, and how one brutally honest character from White Lotus helped her realize she wasn’t “too much”—she was just in the wrong room. This episode is an invitation into a new kind of space: one where creative...
