Rewiring a Hustle-Driven Nervous System with Lauren Goche
About this episode
Lauren Goche discusses the importance of community and self-care in leadership.
Lauren Goche has cracked the code on something most leaders never admit they need: community. A principal real estate broker, micro-influencer, and self-described love bully, Lauren built her career by staying connected — and then discovered that even she had a chaos habit she didn't see coming. In this episode, she talks with Rachel about the expensive sabbatical lesson that revealed she didn't know how to be calm, what it looks like to lead a team with radical care as the operating principle, and the strange isolating side effects of becoming someone people recognize in restaurants, on front porches, and at lunch while accidentally stealing your phone. Episode Highlights • She nearly took a job she dreaded — and a chance conference encounter changed everything • Why Lauren deliberately chose never to own her own brokerage ("it's more headache and more lonely") • The Mexico property: how a sabbatical got too quiet and she manufactured chaos to escape the calm • Scarcity to abundance: growing up with housing instability and what it meant to be able to lose big without losing everything • The love bully philosophy — why care for each other comes before care for clients…
