  • Building a Values-Aligned Life with Liz Hartge

    Building a Values-Aligned Life with Liz Hartge
    Jul 30 2026
    On the Yes Women’s Network Podcast, host Michele Morley interviews Liz Hartge of Luminary Leadership Company, nearly 15 years in business, about evolving from marketing to scaling entrepreneurs through leadership and values-aligned growth. Hartge explains burnout often comes from working outside one’s “zone of genius,” and describes using an online leadership style assessment to identify gifts, energy drains, and roadblocks for clients and teams worldwide. She shares a shift in prioritizing proximity and availability for her five children by elevating her team, systemizing operations, choosing family-honoring clients, and batching commitments, integrating kids into work and homeschooling. Hartge challenges one-size-fits-all success, emphasizes intuition, and outlines frameworks including the Clarity Matrix, focusing on “easy/heavy” versus “hard/light,” and choosing a trajectory over rigid goals. She describes daily intentional time with God, mindset discipline, offers a Clarity Playbook via Instagram DM, and previews her upcoming book and podcast, Your Big Next.00:00 Burnout And Genius Zone01:02 Podcast Welcome And Guest Intro01:46 From Marketing To Leadership04:08 Finding The Sweet Spot05:55 Assessments For Team Fit07:30 Burnout Beyond Busy07:56 Working With Clients Remotely09:05 Motherhood And Priorities Shift14:40 Integrating Kids Into Work18:01 Redefining Success And Calling21:44 Trusting Intuition Over Noise22:59 Clarity Matrix Framework26:24 Hard Versus Heavy Growth27:21 Goals Versus Trajectory28:40 Seasons Not Failures30:27 Ambition Meets Reality31:56 Steward Schedule Rituals34:50 Mindset Fighting Nature35:58 Hobby Farm Lessons39:08 Clarity Tools Mentors42:05 God Given Strengths44:13 Your Big Next Book46:33 Friendships And Hobbies49:37 Closing Thanks MissionThanks for listening to YES!

  • Finding Purpose With Nicea DeGering

    Finding Purpose With Nicea DeGering
    Jul 23 2026
    Michele Morley explores topics with longtime television personality and Good Things Utah anchor Nicea DeGering for an honest conversation about purpose, identity, and finding confidence through life's changing seasons. Drawing on three decades in broadcasting, Nicea reflects on navigating career transitions, becoming an empty nester, and learning to trust her intuition instead of comparing herself to others. She shares how social media affected her self-worth, the lessons she learned about authenticity, and why true confidence comes from embracing who you are rather than trying to please everyone. The conversation explores the influence of motherhood on her journalism, including how covering the Elizabeth Smart case changed her perspective forever. Nicea also discusses parenting adult children, redefining success at different stages of life, balancing career ambitions with family, and why peace—not achievement—has become her measure of success. She closes with an inspiring reminder that every person brings something unique to the world and encourages women to discover what makes them different and confidently lead with it.Timestamps00:00 Opening Reflection on Comparison00:48 Welcome and Guest Introduction01:50 Knowing When to Turn the Page03:40 Finding Purpose Through Change05:25 The Pressure of Comparison06:05 Learning to Trust Intuition06:55 Social Media and Self-Worth08:35 Becoming Comfortable Being Yourself10:45 Women Who Inspire Lasting Change12:45 Giving Back Creates Purpose13:50 Authenticity Over Perfection15:00 Why She Chose Television16:20 Telling Stories That Matter18:20 Curiosity and a Career in Journalism19:40 The Excitement of Breaking News21:20 Motherhood Changed Everything22:20 Covering the Elizabeth Smart Case24:20 Raising Independent Daughters25:50 Understanding Her Own Mother27:50 Redefining Success Over Time29:00 The Myth of Work-Life Balance30:15 Peace Is the New Success31:15 Finding Confidence in Your Uniqueness33:10 Final Thoughts and FarewellThanks for listening to YES!
