The Aligned Woman Podcast

Welcome to the Aligned Woman Podcast with your host, Keri Kugler. This is the podcast to get real about what it takes to build a successful online business while becoming the most alive and aligned version of you. After building my dream business from the ground up, leaving my full time job and taking my life coaching business full time in under a year I began falling in love with helping as many women as possible how to answer their calling, take their gifts seriously and build profitable businesses that are rooted in impact and transformation. I’m here to activate and guide you with weekly episodes on energetics, strategy, client attraction, sales, and all things online business sprinkled with a little magic and mysticism Let's dive into this week's episode.

Ep 285. Income Dips & Staying in Your Power Through Them 04/07/2026

Ep 285. Income Dips & Staying in Your Power Through Them There’s a moment in business that no one really prepares you for. When things slow down. When the numbers dip. When it would be very easy to spiral, question everything, and make it mean something about you. This episode is a real-time conversation about exactly that. I’m taking you inside a recent income dip I experienced, how I moved through it, and what I see now so clearly about these seasons that most women completely miss. Because here’s the truth: Income dips are not a sign that something is wrong. They’re a normal part of building something that actually grows. But more than that, they reveal something deeper. They show you who you are when things aren’t instantly working. They expose where you’re still attaching your power, your worth, and your safety to your results. And that’s the real work. Inside this episode, I walk you through: What income dips actually mean (and what they don’t) Why these seasons are non-negotiable if you’re building something sustainable The identity shift that changes everything during slower seasons How to stop making dips mean something about your worth or your business Three simple, powerful practices I used to regulate my nervous system and shift my energy fast How to hold yourself in a way where you know you’re already on the other side These practices are simple. You can do them in minutes. But they will change how you move through your business. Because the women who create long-term success are not the ones who avoid dips. They’re the ones who stay steady, grounded, and powerful inside of them.

Ep 284. 43: What This Year Asked of Me and What It Changed 03/31/2026

Ep 284. 43: What This Year Asked of Me and What It Changed This episode is a little different. I originally felt called to record this as a way to celebrate my birthday, but not from a place of performance or recap. I wanted to open the door and actually let you into what this season of my life looks like in real time. What I’m navigating. What I’m seeing. What I’m still working through. Because growth in my 40s has been a completely different experience than anything I moved through in my 30s. It’s deeper. It’s more confronting. And it’s asking something different of me. In this conversation, I’m sharing the lessons that have shaped me this past year and the ones that are still actively unfolding: – What I’m attracting and what it’s reflecting back to me – The difference between accessing a state and actually sustaining it – Where control has been driving my decisions and what’s underneath it – The shifts happening in my relationship to business, money, and social media – What I want now as a woman, a mother, and a leader – The deepening of my boundaries, my voice, and my sense of self – And why this season feels less about fixing myself and more about expansion, connection, and truth This isn’t a “here’s how to do it” episode. It’s a real one. And my intention is that somewhere inside of it, you see yourself more clearly too. Let's take it deeper: If you’re listening and you can feel there’s something underneath your business that needs to shift, this is the work we do inside the Business Alignment Intensive. It’s a private 90-minute session plus one week of private coaching to realign your business, get clear on what’s actually going on, and walk away with grounded decisions and next steps. And if you want to be in this conversation in a room with other women who are doing this work too, Conscious Women in Business Live is that space. It’s an in-person leadership experience where we go deeper into how you’re leading and what’s ready to shift. /episode/index/show/powerandpassion/id/40644660

Ep 283. The Woman You Become Before the Business Works With Ashley Simonis 03/24/2026

Ep 283. The Woman You Become Before the Business Works With Ashley Simonis There are conversations that stay on the surface and then there are the ones that take you into the actual work. This is one of those. In this episode, I sat down with Ashley Simonis, someone I’ve had the privilege of witnessing over the years, from a season where she was still finding her footing… to now leading her own work with clarity and conviction. We didn’t just talk about business. We talked about the practice behind it. What it really means to live your work. To be in it and to let it shape you. We went into the seasons that don’t get talked about enough, the ones where nothing is landing the way you hoped, where you’re questioning everything, where it looks like it might not work. And instead of rushing past that part, we stayed there. Because that’s the part that changes you. Inside this conversation, we explore what it looks like to move through those spaces without abandoning yourself… and how that is the very thing that builds the woman capable of leading something real. We talk about yoga not as something you do for an hour on a mat, but as a way of living, a way of holding yourself, a way of making decisions, a way of leading. And how that practice becomes the foundation for everything you create in your business. This episode is for the woman who is in it right now. The one who KNOWS the gap. The one who knows she’s in a transition. The one who can feel what’s next, but doesn’t fully see how it comes together yet. Nothing has gone wrong. You’re in the work. And if you stay with it, if you keep going, if you let it shape you instead of rushing to escape it, that’s where everything starts to move. Connect with Ashley here: Personal Instagram Page: Home Yoga's Instagram Page: Ashley is a dedicated student and practitioner of yoga first and foremost. This fuels her passion for teaching. Her practice began in 2011 at a carpeted heated studio in St. Louis, MO. (Eeek!) Ashley completed her 200 hour teacher training in 2016 with BlueBird and Southtown Yoga in St. Louis, MO where she was born, raised and currently resides and her 300 hour training in 2020 with Yoga Oasis in Tucson, AZ. She teaches classes, workshops, and teacher trainings both locally and nationally with a heavy emphasis on accessibility. Ashley studies and works closely with her teacher Darren Rhodes, founder of yogahour®. Her gusto for these practices (and life in general) is undeniable and you’ll see that in her offerings. Ashley's mission is to get these practices off the mat (or cushion) and into the world. There's something really profound that happens when a person can bring their practice into their day to day lives. /episode/index/show/powerandpassion/id/40592695

Ep 282. When the Effort in Your Business Stops Matching the Results 03/17/2026

Ep 281. The Habit That's Quietly Stalling Your Growth (And What To Do About It) 03/12/2026

Ep 280. Embodied Content: A New Standard for Social Media 03/03/2026

Ep 280. Embodied Content: A New Standard for Social Media Last week, I stepped out of my little online bubble and attended a content event at Dreamer’s Loft. I’m selective about who I learn from. I almost didn’t go, but what I walked away with had nothing to do with trends, hooks, or algorithms. It was a reminder I think many of us need right now: Embodied content over performance. If you are a service-based business owner, your people are not buying your offer in isolation. They are investing in you. Your leadership. Your energy. Your presence. Your standards. And when your leadership feels off, your content will too. That’s when Instagram feels heavy. That’s when comparison creeps in. That’s when you start trying to “crack the code” instead of actually leading. In this mini-episode, I share: Why content feels flat when you’re disconnected from yourself The leadership question you should be asking instead of “What should I post?” A behind-the-scenes look at how I created a recent reel without interrupting my life or sacrificing presence Why imperfect, human, embodied content will always outperform polished performance If social media feels exhausting right now, this isn’t about working harder or finding a better strategy. It’s about getting back into your body. Back into your standards. Back into your lane. From there, sharing becomes natural. Conscious Women in Business — April 17 | St. Louis An in-person leadership room for women building meaningful work who are ready to deepen how they lead and how they show up.

This is for the woman who is already building something meaningful and knows her next level isn’t about doing more. It’s about leading differently. Thinking differently. Holding herself differently.
