What if the stress you’ve normalized isn’t normal? In this Special Edition, Kellie sits down with Keri Ford—former Creative Director turned elite advisor to some of the world’s most influential women, and CEO & Founder of Elevate with Keri—to explore how resilience, nervous system regulation, and leadership intersect.
Keri has shared stages with leading neuroscientists and thought leaders, worked with celebrities like Alison Sweeney, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Kaley Cuoco, and was named one of the Top 100 Global Visionaries and 2024’s Most Empowering Women’s Transformational Coaches. Through her signature Somatic Success® methodology, she helps driven women expand their potential while cultivating peace, profit, and sustainable success.
In this episode, she doesn’t just talk about nervous system regulation—she leads Kellie through a LIVE somatic exercise to demonstrate how we can shift the stories our bodies hold. That’s why this episode is a Special Edition: it’s not theory, it’s practice.
Together, Kellie and Keri unpack what it really takes to balance ambition with pressure, and how to move past invisible barriers that keep women trapped in cycles of stress. Keri shares why the goal isn’t healing trauma but building resilience, and how to tear down the prison walls around your purpose so you can expand into your full capacity.
Kellie also opens up about the weight of rebranding the podcast, becoming more vulnerable on the mic, and navigating both support and scrutiny along the way.
This conversation goes deeper than pageantry, titles, or external success. It’s about rewriting the semantic story your nervous system tells, creating safety within, and cultivating the resilience to lead yourself and others with strength.
