| Foxy Box Founder Kyla Dufresne | 12 Mar 2026 | 00:42:14 | |
Today on Found-Her, I sit down with Kyla Dufresne, founder and leader of Foxy Box Laser & Wax Bar, a Canadian franchise that has grown to 24 locations across the country. Kyla started Foxy Box in the dining room of her house, funding the business with bartending tips when no one would give her a loan, and turned that scrappy beginning into a nationally recognized brand. We talk about the early days of entrepreneurship, what it really takes to scale a service-based business into a franchise system, and the deep inner work required to build something that lasts. Kyla opens up about her first failed franchise, the lessons that forced her to rethink what it truly means to be a franchisor, and how surrounding yourself with the right advisors and community can change everything. If you’re building something big and learning as you go, this episode is a reminder that success isn’t about avoiding mistakes, it’s about growing through them.

| The Wellness Conversations No One Is Having | 05 Mar 2026 | 00:37:26 | |
In this episode of Found-HER, I sit down with Megan Swan, wellness strategist, integrative leadership coach, and founder of Alta Vita and Megan Swan Wellness, for a real conversation about what wellness actually looks like for women building empires. Megan shares her journey from high-functioning burnout to spontaneous sobriety, how stepping into true CEO energy changed her business, and why optimizing your health isn’t about perfection, but about sustainability. We talk about redefining what it means to be a high-performing CEO and why so many female founders are unknowingly exhausting themselves in the name of “doing it right.” This conversation is founder therapy in the best way. If you’re a woman navigating growth, leadership, and the constant tension between ambition and true alignment, this one will hit home. Share this with a business bestie, leave a review, and let me know over on Instagram what part of your founder journey you’re redefining. Connect with Megan: Links: | |||
| High Vibe Takeaways | 01 Jan 2026 | 00:18:58 | |
Today, we’re getting honest about asking for what you want, taking up space before you feel ready, and why “waiting” is often the thing holding you back the most. I’m fresh off of the High Vibe Women networking event and have so many insights to share after spending a few days with women who are building big lives and bold businesses. I talk about my reaction to watching one woman take action while everyone else waited, and how clearly it reflected the ways we delay, hesitate, and wait for permission in our own founder journeys. I also unpack why becoming an “ask-hole” is essential and what it looks like to take full ownership of your vision. If this resonates, leave a review, subscribe, and share it with the founder who needs the reminder that she doesn’t need permission to move.

Through her work, Christy brings a deep focus on pelvic health and chronic pain, supporting women in regaining strength and achieving greater control over their wellness.

Her north star? Building a “free” life with more time, money, and choices for herself and her family. This conversation is for any woman ready to build, grow, and show up for herself.

| The Biggest Obstacle | 04 Dec 2025 | 00:17:26 | |
Welcome back to Found-Her! In this episode, I share the surprising answer I gave on a recent pitch application when asked about the hardest obstacle in my founder journey. Building a legacy business from scratch has pushed me to grow in ways I never expected, and I open up about what it feels like to create something that lives and operates beyond me. I didn’t expect that the biggest challenge wouldn’t be money, strategy, or skill gaps, but that it would be the people closest to me. Tune in to hear the honest reflections behind that realization and how I’m learning to navigate these moments without letting them dim my vision.

| The "Old White Man Club" | 06 Nov 2025 | 00:14:55 | |
This week on Found-HER, I get real about what it means to be a female franchisor in a space that has been dominated by old systems, old voices, and old rules. I’ve worn every role in franchising, from selling popcorn as a young mom, to being a franchisee, to now being the franchisor, and along the way, I’ve witnessed and experienced an insane amount of gatekeeping. But here’s the truth: there is more than one way to build a legacy. There is room for women to lead differently and do it well. Sometimes, being the one who challenges the norms is exactly what you’re called to do. Let’s rise together! Share this episode with a fellow founder who’s blazing her own trail and leave me a review so we can keep building up this empowering space. Links: | |||

Welcome to the first episode of Found-HER! Today, I’m sharing the catalyst question that changed the trajectory of my business and my life: In this episode, I open up about the years of subtle friction in both my marriage and our business that led me to confront old beliefs, hidden values, and the quiet ways we hold ourselves back. You’ll hear how I moved from playing the “support role” to stepping fully into my purpose as a founder and CEO, and how giving myself permission to lead from the front has transformed everything.If you take away anything from this episode it’s this: don’t be afraid to sit at the head of the table, because it might just change everything for the better.

| 2 Indicators of Great Leadership | 26 Feb 2026 | 00:14:41 | |
As founders, we often look for the "how-to" guides on leadership, but the truth is, it’s not about step-by-step instructions, it’s about self-awareness. In this episode of FoundHER, I explain why leadership starts with leading yourself. I share how this mindset has shaped my approach to leading a team, where the most important tool is not external strategies but internal reflection and growth. When we take the time to understand ourselves, we create an environment where our teams can truly flourish. If you’re a founder looking to step into your leadership role with more confidence and clarity, get ready to redefine your approach and cultivate the self-awareness that will take your business to the next level.

Welcome to Part 2 of my conversation with legacy founder Ocean VanOhm.

Ocean gives an inside look at her business, ROAR Funnels, and how she built scalable ecosystems alongside identity shifts and inner child healing. We also dive into visibility, worthiness, and what it means to be fully seen as a founder, regardless of your past and the narratives that were spoken over you. If you’re building something bold and feel the stretch of becoming, this conversation will remind you that you are worthy of impact and income.

| Poverty to Pitching | 05 Feb 2026 | 00:19:29 | |
I didn’t come from stability, support, or a safety net, and that truth shaped everything about the founder I became. In this episode, I reflect on my journey from a scrappy kid who grew up in poverty and foster care, to a woman about to pitch a billion dollar business. As I revisit my past while refining this high-stakes investor pitch, I share how resilience, uncertainty, and vision became my greatest assets. In this conversation, I get honest about legacy, identity, and rewriting generational stories through entrepreneurship. If you’ve ever questioned whether your background disqualifies you, I hope this episode will remind you it’s actually preparing you.

In this episode of Found-Her, I sit down with Jillian Murphy for a real conversation about what it actually takes to scale your life and business. Jillian is a highly sought-after business and sales mentor with over 20 years of experience in the industry. She’s grown her own business from zero to six figures in one year, hit a six-figure month within 18 months, and did it all without ads, fancy systems, or even a website. She’s truly mastered the art of communication and sales, and if you’re someone who’s still learning how to market yourself, this is a conversation you’ll want to take notes on.

| Founder Hack | 22 Jan 2026 | 00:14:25 | |
Welcome back to Found-Her! Today, I walk through how hiring a part-time personal assistant gave me space to think again and ultimately supported my business in ways I couldn’t see at the time. I was at a point where I felt completely depleted and I knew I needed help, but I was unable to see where to hire next. What started as personal support slowly evolved into something much bigger and, as the company grew, so did my capacity to care for myself and lead well. If you’re burnt out but also feeling hesitation to take on help, I hope this episode can offer you a fresh perspective on what assistance in your business can look like.

| Enough | 15 Jan 2026 | 00:19:28 | |
How much is enough? While working through the financial realities of growing a legacy business, I realized I wasn’t actually searching for a magical number. Today on Found-Her, I talk through what surfaced when this clicked for me: that this whole time, my child self has been quietly running the show by striving for safety in all the wrong ways. If you’re a woman who’s always trying to hold it together, I want you to know that you don’t have to be so guarded, because you are inherently worthy and enough as you are. This is such a universal topic and I’d love to hear your take. Share this episode with a friend and reach out to me on Instagram @kimberley.hiebert with your thoughts. Links: | |||

In this episode of Found-Her, I’m joined by the incredible Carly Ottaway: author of Coming Home, creator of The Mirror Effect, and founder of the award-winning agency Web of Words. We talk about writing her debut book in the middle of losing her home in a fire, leading a six-figure business through the pandemic, and raising two young kids, all while doing the deep inner work that so many founders avoid. We also unpack The Mirror Effect and how our businesses, teams, and relationships reflect the truth of how we’re showing up. If you’re waiting for the perfect moment to create your dreams and tell your story, this is your reminder: it doesn’t exist. Start now.

| Closing the Chapter: The Messy, Liberating Truth About Pivoting Your Business | 16 Apr 2026 | 00:34:41 | |
Welcome back to Found-Her! In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Simone Richards, a Canadian female founder who made a bold pivot from a 20-year career in PR into building Pearl Spark Pages, a product-based business designed to help women build self-confidence and push past limiting beliefs. We talk about imposter syndrome and how even the most accomplished women still battle the voice that says “I’m not ready yet.” We also get into the realities of starting over, from learning an entirely new business model and navigating inconsistent cash flow, to building something from idea to retail shelves in just over a year. Lisa shares what it looked like to let go of a long-held identity and stay grounded in the belief that she’s “three feet from gold.” If you’ve been questioning your next move or waiting to feel ready, let this conversation be your reminder that growth doesn’t come from certainty, it comes from trusting yourself.

| Doors Are Boring. Here’s Why I Built a Franchise Around Them Anyway. | 09 Apr 2026 | 00:08:18 | |
I recently found myself sitting in a room full of successful women, being asked a question that stopped me in my tracks: “Are you actually passionate about doors?” And the truth is, I’m not. In today’s episode of Found-Her, I’m sharing with you what I am actually passionate about: people, their growth, their ability to change their story, and the opportunity to build wealth and legacy in a way that impacts future generations. So I’m bringing you into that question: what are you actually passionate about, and are you unintentionally limiting your growth by tying that passion too tightly to the wrong model? I share how separating passion from execution has been key in building a scalable, legacy-driven business, and why you don’t have to sacrifice revenue to stay connected to what lights you up. If this episode hits, I want to hear from you. Send me a DM @Kimberley.Hiebert on Instagram and let’s chat. Links: | |||
| Bringing Sexy Back to Operations | 02 Apr 2026 | 00:36:19 | |
In today’s episode of Found-Her, I sit down with Alyssa Truelove, founder of True Hive Consulting, a systems and team operations firm helping female entrepreneurs step out of the day-to-day and into true CEO leadership. Alyssa brings a human-first perspective to operations, reminding us that building a scalable business isn’t just about systems, it’s about the vision and trust we build them with. We talk about Alyssa's journey from service-based work and burnout to building a business rooted in freedom. We get into the tension that comes with releasing control, including the fear of investing in your team and the identity shift required to become a founder who truly trusts others to think, lead, and grow.

| Finding Your Success | 26 Mar 2026 | 00:32:42 | |
What happens when your success no longer fits the woman you’ve become? Today on Found-Her, I welcome leadership strategist Sarah Khan, for a conversation on building success on your own terms. Sarah’s work is all about redefining what power looks like for high-performing women and in this conversation, she opens up about the moment she realized that she wasn't cut out to be a corporate unicorn. We talk about burnout masked as achievement and the realization that our worth is not tied to how much we can produce. We also get into the different phases and feelings of rebuilding: leaving behind what doesn’t serve you anymore, choosing intentional growth over reactive survival, and learning to lead from who you are now and not who you were expected to be. For those craving a more sustainable way to lead, it starts with recognizing that you are already whole.

What do you do when life forces you to leave behind the identity you’ve built yourself on? Today on Found-HER, I talk to Katie Eberman, mother of three and the founder of Simply By Katie, a web design studio for women-led businesses ready to elevate their online presence and step into their fullest potential. Katie shares her journey from corporate life to seven years as a stay-at-home mom, and then into the unexpected reality of becoming a single mom and choosing to go all-in as an entrepreneur. We talk about identity loss, self-worth, and what it actually looks like to rediscover yourself when your only option is to move forward. We also talk about the importance of visibility and storytelling, and why your website should feel like a home, not just a tool.

| Dragon's Den, a Keynote, and a Dumpster Fire: The Month Nobody Saw Behind the Scenes | 23 Apr 2026 | 00:14:27 | |
This season of building my legacy business has been full of the kind of momentum you only see on the highlight reels. But behind all the validation I’ve been receiving, I’ve been navigating some heavy and unexpected challenges that haven’t been making it to the stage. Today, I share what it’s felt like for me to hold both the expansion and the heartache at the exact same time, and how being in the messy middle of entrepreneurship often means learning to exist in both extremes without losing yourself. I share how this tension has forced me to come back to my “why” in deeper, more honest ways, especially in the moments where doubt creeps in and everything feels uncertain. This is founder therapy in real time and if you’re a woman building something bold and feeling the weight of both the highs and lows, I want you to know you’re not alone, and that both can be true without meaning you’re off track. If this all resonates, head over to Instagram and leave me a message, because I would love to know how you’re feeling. Links: | |||
| The 30 Days That Changed Everything | 23 Jul 2026 | 00:25:31 | |
There are moments in business that remind you exactly what you're built for. In this episode, I reflect on an unexpected 30-day season that included delivering my first keynote, pitching our business on stage in front of 800 people, and stepping into the Dragon's Den. Each opportunity strengthened my confidence and revealed something I hadn't fully recognized before, that sharing vision, leading with purpose, and inspiring action is truly my zone of genius. But the biggest breakthrough wasn't on stage, it happened behind the scenes. I share how I uncovered an upper limit I didn't know I was carrying, the belief that I was running out of time, and the mindset shift that's helping me move forward with more freedom and intention. If this episode resonates, share it with your business bestie, leave a review, and come tell me what you're building on Instagram @Kimberley.Hiebert. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Links: | |||
| Grief, Grit, and Really Good Chocolate | 16 Jul 2026 | 00:36:58 | |
What happens when you refuse to compromise your values, even when it would make growing your business easier? Today’s guest, Kristyn Carriere, shares the story behind 7 Summits Snacks and the journey that led her from performing with Disney on Ice, to developing chocolate for some of the world's biggest brands, to building a purpose-driven company after the unexpected loss of her partner. What began as an idea for better fuel for athletes became a business rooted in resilience, integrity, and a commitment to doing things differently. The heart of this conversation is about building a business that reflects who you are, even when the road is slower or more challenging. We talk about ethical sourcing, motherhood, navigating the realities of consumer packaged goods, and why protecting your standards can become your greatest competitive advantage. Maybe you've been wrestling with the pressure to grow faster or wondering if staying true to your values is worth it. If that's where you are, I think this episode will really resonate with you.

| Perfect is Not a Standard | 14 May 2026 | 00:18:17 | |
I almost didn’t release this episode because, no matter how many times I hit record and started over, it still didn’t feel “perfect”. This moment led me into a deeper reflection on the middle ground that sits between perfection and sloppiness, and why most of us confuse perfectionism with excellence. Drawing on my experience building a franchise system, I share the lesson it’s taken me a long time to learn: excellence is something we practice, not something we perfect and the fear of being judged for failing or acting sloppy should never hold you back from taking action on your dreams and goals. Your self-worth and value aren’t tied to how your work is received, but it is your responsibility to learn from your messy moments, act with integrity, and adapt to feedback.

| From Survival Mode to Open Heart: Amanda Joy on Body-Based Trauma Recovery | 07 May 2026 | 00:31:04 | |
Trigger warning: This episode contains discussion of sudden loss and the trauma that followed. Please take care while listening. In today’s episode of Found-HER, I sit down with Amanda Joy for a conversation that goes far beyond business and into the kind of deep, body-led healing most founders don’t realize they need. Amanda is a trauma-informed, body-based healing practitioner who blends somatics, breathwork, and lived experience to guide women out of survival mode and back into themselves. After experiencing a life-altering tragedy, she began a journey of healing that transformed not only how she lives, but how she holds space for others. Together, we unpack what it really means to carry trauma in the body, why high-performing women often avoid the very work that would set them free, and how the “messy middle” of entrepreneurship is often a mirror for the deeper healing we’ve yet to face. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering why success still feels heavy, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Please leave a review to support the show and connect with me on Instagram @kimberley.hiebert, because I’d love to hear what this conversation unlocked for you. Connect with Amanda: Links: | |||
| Clear Is Kind. So Why Are We Still Being Called Bossy? | 09 Jul 2026 | 00:14:36 | |
Something that keeps coming up for myself and in conversations with other female founders is how women who value direct communication often get labeled as bossy or “too much”. Today on the podcast, I share why clear communication has become one of my deepest values, how it has shaped my leadership, and why kindness and honesty can absolutely exist together. If we truly believe that clear is kind, then we have to stop punishing women for speaking with conviction. This episode is an invitation to rethink the stories we tell about strong female leaders, embrace uncomfortable conversations with integrity, and create space for women to use their voices without apology. If this conversation resonates, share it with your business bestie and come tell me your thoughts on Instagram @Kimberley.Hiebert, because I’d love to hear your experience. Links: | |||
| Trailblazing with Selina Gray | 02 Jul 2026 | 00:49:01 | |
Are you building from vision or from an old wound dressed up as ambition? Today’s guest, Selina Gray, gives us the reminder that your sense of “enough” has never been about a number. After building her career in finance, Selina became a controller in the oil and gas world in her twenties, and eventually turned a life-threatening health crisis into the catalyst of transformation for her relationship with money and the foundation of the work she does today. The root of this talk is what it really means to be “enough,” why so many women are chasing safety through success, and how being seen, challenged, and called forward can change the trajectory of your life and business. We also talk about storytelling, the power of in-person rooms, and the kind of founder growth that asks you to stop performing and start telling the truth. Maybe you’ve been questioning what all of this is really for or craving a deeper way of living. If that’s the case, I know this episode is going to land with you. Please leave a like on this episode and share it with a woman who’s building something big in her life. Connect with Selina: Join Selina's Trailblazer Live 2026 Event in Edmonton, AB Links: | |||
| Sharing, Pink Flags and Values | 25 Jun 2026 | 00:23:20 | |
Today on the podcast, I unpack a value that’s become non-negotiable for me as a founder: sharing. Not just sharing credit when it’s easy, but sharing the spotlight, the workload, and the hard moments in a way that reflects true alignment. I talk about a past team experience where a person’s inability to truly “share” quietly eroded trust and momentum. I had to stop ignoring my instincts that came from the subtle “pink flags” and finally accept that I couldn’t influence this person to be someone they simply were not. This conversation is about the responsibility we carry as founders to protect the environments we’re building. If you’ve ever questioned your instincts around a relationship, I think this one will hit home. If it resonates, please leave a review and come connect with me on Instagram @Kimberley.Hiebert because I’d love to hear what this brings up for you. Links: | |||
| I Said Yes Before I Knew What I Was Getting Into | 18 Jun 2026 | 00:24:43 | |
When I first said yes to applying for The Forum’s pitch program, I had no idea how much it would change me. In this episode, I share what happened behind the scenes of presenting our vision in front of 800+ people who genuinely wanted to see women entrepreneurs succeed. The biggest win wasn’t the outcome, it was the growth that came from putting my business in front of strangers, receiving honest feedback, and learning how to communicate my vision with confidence. I also reflect on the power of being fully seen, celebrated, and supported as a female founder. The Forum reminded me that saying yes before you feel ready can open doors you never imagined, and that surrounding yourself with people who believe in your vision is one of the greatest accelerators for growth. I hope this conversation inspires you to push through doubt and step up for your vision. If there's a fellow female founder in your life who needs this reminder, please pass this episode along.

| God, Money and the Unapologetic Truth | 11 Jun 2026 | 00:30:49 | |
In today’s episode of Found-HER, I sit down with Jaclyn Shaw, spiritual mentor, best-selling author, and powerful speaker, to dive into the intersection of faith, money, and unapologetic self-expression. Jaclyn shares her transformative journey from personal heartbreak to discovering the God within her, and how that inner certainty now drives her business and coaching. We explore what it truly means to lead from conviction, navigate being misunderstood, and harness the energy of your highest truth as a founder. Jaclyn also opens up about the taboo topic of God and money, and how stepping fully into your worthiness can shift your business and life. If you’re a woman building your legacy and breaking barriers, this conversation will inspire you to own your truth and embrace your power.

| Shit, I Didn't See That Coming | 04 Jun 2026 | 00:16:25 | |
Today on Found-HER, I am fresh off of delivering my very first keynote to over a hundred female entrepreneurs and I’m taking you behind the scenes of that experience. From working with a speaking coach to navigating the anxiety of an unexpected challenge that happened just moments before my speech, I reflect on the power of how showing up authentically opens doors not just for you, but for others too. If you’re a female founder who’s struggling with visibility and vulnerability, know that you’re not alone and there are people out there who could benefit from hearing your story.

| From Donuts to Dynasties | 28 May 2026 | 00:41:52 | |
In this episode, I sit down with Celine Bacani: Filipino Canadian entrepreneur, co-owner of Lee’s Donuts in Vancouver, and co-founder of YVT Real Estate Group. We dive deep into her journey of taking over a legacy brand, building a franchise system, and leading with a people-first, community-focused approach.

| Cancer, COVID, and a Pet Food Store: My Messy Middle Business Story | 21 May 2026 | 00:21:17 | |
We love talking about our wins, but what about our failures? Today on Found-Her, I shine a light on one of the lowest points of my entrepreneurial journey: experiencing a failed business. I share what it was like running a pet boutique with my family while navigating the pandemic and my cancer diagnosis. Through all the loss, challenges, and overwhelm, I can now reflect on the lessons that shaped our growth as a family and as founders. This episode is about keeping things real, reframing failure, and using setbacks as the catalyst for bigger opportunities. Your next breakthrough could be around the corner. Don’t give up.
