Plenty with Kate Northrup

146: How to Tune In To What Turns You On and Access More Money and Power As A Result with Genevieve LeJeune

What if tuning in to what turns you on is one of the most powerful ways to access more money, confidence, and leadership in your life?In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with Genevieve LeJeune, founder and CEO of Skirt Club, a private international membership for bisexual and bi-curious women. Our conversation moves straight into territory most people avoid - pleasure, desire, power, money, and the courage it takes to invest in yourself when the world tells you not to. Genevieve shares how Skirt Club began as a small gathering in her London flat and grew into a global movement, why she created an alter ego to step into leadership, and what it actually looks like when women prioritize their own pleasure and agency - without apology.We talk about the cultural shame that has kept women disconnected from their desire, how giving yourself permission to want more changes the way you show up everywhere, and why women who take ownership of their pleasure often become clearer decision-makers, stronger leaders, and more powerful stewards of money. Genevieve also breaks down how Skirt Club events work, why privacy and discretion matter, and what she’s learned after witnessing thousands of women claim parts of themselves they were taught to hide.This episode is about more than sex. It’s about self-trust. It’s about choosing yourself before you have all the answers. And it’s about the quiet, radical truth that when women listen to their bodies and act on what they want, their money, confidence, and sense of power expand right along with them.XO,Kate“I wasn’t trying to change who I was. I just stepped into another version of myself and gave her permission to lead.”  -  Genevieve LeJeune🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 – Introduction to Self Acceptance and Sexuality10:42 – Cultural Shifts Around Women's Sexuality17:42 – What Happens at Skirt Club Events21:05 – Dressing for Empowerment and Confidence25:27 – Cultural and Religious Influences on Sexuality35:10 – Marketing Strategies and Word of Mouth42:09 – Adapting to COVID-19 and Online Events43:24 – Launch of Skirt Society App45:33 – Interconnection of Money, Power, and Sexuality46:37 – Personal Growth Through Adventure50:43 – Conclusion and Call to ActionLinks and Resources:Money Breakthrough GuideConnect with Genevieve LeJeune:Skirt ClubInstagramSkirt Club InstagramSkirt Club Community Instagram✨ Ready to create more on your wealth-building journey?Ready to create more ease on your wealth-building journey?

Episode 145: How to Talk About Money & Death With Your Loved Ones (and Why Waiting or Avoiding it is a Big Mistake) with Amber Saunders (145)

What would change for your family if the hardest conversations about money and death were already handled—clearly, lovingly, and without chaos?In this episode of Plenty, I’m sitting down with estate and legacy planning lawyer Amber Saunders for a conversation most people avoid—and pay for later.We talk about why avoiding conversations about death, money, and legacy doesn’t protect your family… it actually creates confusion, resentment, and heartbreak when it matters most. Amber shares a powerful personal story about how one simple decision her great-grandmother made ended up supporting three generations later—financially, emotionally, and practically—during a medical crisis no one could have predicted.This isn’t an episode about documents and paperwork (though we cover what you actually need, at every stage of life). It’s about legacy. It’s about values. It’s about making decisions now so the people you love aren’t left guessing later.In our conversation, we cover:Why waiting to talk about money and death almost always creates family conflictHow to start estate conversations with parents or partners without it sounding like you’re after an inheritanceThe first non-negotiable steps every adult needs in place—even if you don’t think you have “enough” assets yetWhy clarity around what you own (yes, even a simple list) can save your family years of stressHow inheritances go wrong—and how to pass down wisdom and values, not just moneyWhy no AI tool or fill-in-the-blank document can replace the human side of legacy planningIf you care about your family, your future, and what happens to what you’ve built—this is a conversation to listen to before there’s a crisis.This episode is an invitation to lead with intention now, so the people you love can grieve, remember, and stay connected later.XO,Kate“People think that if they talk about death, it’s going to make it happen sooner.

144: The Currency of Connection: How Safety Expands Wealth (YouTube: Why Feeling Safe Is the Most Profitable Thing You Can Do)

What if the most profitable thing you could do this year isn’t another strategy - but learning how to create real connection?In this episode of Plenty, I’m inviting you into a conversation that challenges one of the most common assumptions in business and money: that control creates security. I share why control is often a stress response and how connection, not control, is what actually expands wealth. Not networking. Not transactional relationships. Real, human, heart-to-heart connection that opens new channels for opportunity, collaboration, and prosperity.I tell a pivotal story about how one meaningful relationship - formed without force or strategy - became a catalyst for millions in revenue and some of the most important friendships of my life. From there, I break down why money is inherently relational, why abundance moves through trust networks, and how the way we relate to people directly shapes the way resources flow to us. This is about shifting from “How do I make it happen?” to “How do I stay in right relationship with what’s happening?”In this episode, you’ll explore:Why control actually blocks connection - and connection is where wealth growsHow trust, presence, and generosity create real opportunityWhy high-achieving, successful people still feel empty or stressed at the topHow prioritizing relationships becomes a practical, powerful wealth strategySimple ways to nurture connections that compound over timeIf you make good money but still feel tense, isolated, or like you’re constantly bracing for the next shoe to drop - this episode will give you a new lens. One that leads to wealth that lasts, relationships that matter, and a life that actually feels full.XO,Kate“Connection is a form of capital - and if net worth were measured in relationships, I would be a billionaire.”  -  Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 - Introduction to Abundance and Connection00:42 - The Importance of True Connection03:11 - Connection as a Catalyst for Growth04:53 - Money as a Relational Current06:14 - Nervous System and Relationships10:31 - Masculine Conditioning and Control12:49 - The Brain as a Social Organ19:41 - Nervous System Health and Magnetism23:09 - Building Sustainable Wealth through SafetyLinks and Resources:Polyvagal TheoryBroaden-and-Build Theory of Positive EmotionsRelaxed Money®Money Breakthrough Guide✨ Ready to create more on your wealth-building journey?Ready to create more ease on your wealth-building journey?

143: Your Voice Is Repelling Sales and How to Clear It with Tracy Goodwin

What if the reason your message isn’t landing - or your sales feel harder than they should - isn’t your strategy… but the sound of your voice?In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with the one-and-only Tracy Goodwin, founder of Captivate the Room, whose work completely changed how I understand communication, connection, and conversion. Tracy doesn’t teach “speaking tips.” She hears voices - literally - and she can identify microscopic sounds in your voice that can quietly repel trust, resonance, and income. According to her decades of research, those tiny sounds can cost you anywhere from 30–90% of your impact and revenue.In our conversation, we explore how the voice carries our nervous system history, our unhealed patterns, and the unconscious strategies we learned early in life to stay safe. Tracy breaks down the seven layers of the voice, including what she calls “voice masks” - the subtle ways we try to prove ourselves, sound professional, be liked, or avoid judgment. These masks don’t make us safer. They make us harder to trust.And then - very vulnerably - I let Tracy read my voice live on the podcast.What unfolds is part masterclass, part nervous-system truth telling, and part real-time healing. Tracy pinpoints where I’m working too hard to be understood, where old achievement patterns still leak into my tone, and why my true vocal superpower is actually fun, passion, and dimensionality - not over-precision or proving. Yes, I cry. And yes, it’s worth listening all the way through.We also talk about:Why people decide whether they trust you in under 3 secondsWhy trust alone doesn’t lead to buying - connection doesHow mimicking other leaders damages retention and resonanceWhy your body - not your script - creates magnetic communicationHow clearing your voice can transform relationships, not just revenueIf you’ve ever felt like you’re saying all the “right” things but still not being fully received…If you’ve built success but sense there’s more ease, truth, and power available…If you want your voice to accurately represent who you really are - This episode will change how you show up everywhere.XO,Kate“You can be repelling 30–90% of your impact and income because of sounds in your voice the size of a grain of sand.”  -  Tracy Goodwin🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 – Introduction to Voice and Worth01:07 – Live Voice Reading and Authenticity02:13 – Expert Insights and Guest Introduction03:46 – Transforming Voices and Authenticity05:19 – Personal Backstory and Voice Development07:40 – Teaching Dialects and Voice Coaching10:20 – The Role of Subconscious in Voice14:05 – Understanding Body Language and Voice16:42 – Gift of Voice and Self-Discovery19:12 – Voice Masks and Personal Stories22:36 – The Energy of Truth in Performance29:47 – Survival and Voice Expression36:39 – Healing Relationships through Voice52:40 – Time Management in Conversations58:18 – Healing Relationships through VoiceLinks and Resources:The Money ResetConnect with Tracy Goodwin:InstagramLinkedInCaptivate the RoomOnline Programs & Small Group WorkPrivate Voice Coaching & Launch Reviews✨ The Money Reset: Feel Good with Money—No Matter How Much You MakeMaking more money doesn’t guarantee financial ease… but this will.

142: Abundance in Escrow: How Asking Unlocks What’s Already Yours (YouTube version: How to Unlock the Flow of Abundance That’s Already Waiting for You)

What if the abundance you’ve been working so hard to create is already here - just waiting for you to ask for it?In this episode of Plenty, I’m sharing one of the most overlooked - and most efficient - ways to unlock prosperity, support, and resources: asking.So many of us were conditioned to believe that being strong means doing everything alone. That wisdom lives in pushing harder, figuring it out in our heads, and proving our self-sufficiency. But that mindset is exactly what keeps abundance just out of reach.In this conversation, I walk you through a real-life example of how simply reaching out - raising your hand and saying “I need support” - can shift circumstances without force or struggle. I talk about why what you desire already exists, how scarcity is rooted in the illusion of separation, and why over-relying on intellect and rugged individualism actually shuts down creativity, clarity, and resource flow.You’ll hear why asking is not weakness - it’s strategy. It’s intelligence. It’s leadership. And it’s how prosperity actually moves.This episode will support you if:You’re carrying the belief that it’s “all on you”You feel stuck trying to solve something alone in your headYou want more ease, support, and flow with money and resourcesYou’re ready to work smarter instead of harderI’ll leave you with one powerful question that can change everything: What do you need help with right now - and who can you ask?Because abundance requires flow. And flow requires connection.XO,Kate“What we desire already exists. Abundance isn’t created from nothing - it’s accessed when we’re willing to ask.”-Kate Northrup🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Introduction to Abundance01:37 Manifesting and Abundance04:04 The Importance of Asking for Help09:01 The Dangers of Individualism11:55 Reconnecting with Community and Source14:14 Call to Action: Seeking SupportLinks and Resources:Money Breakthrough Guide✨ Ready to create more on your wealth-building journey?Ready to create more ease on your wealth-building journey?
