    How to Be the Coach, Mentor + Leader You Know You're Meant to Be
    Jun 13 2025
    What if your most powerful coaching certification isn’t on a wall—but in your scars? In this soul-stirring episode of the Crown Yourself podcast, Kimberly Spencer pulls back the curtain on what it really means to lead from embodied sovereignty. Drawing on her own raw and radiant journey—from postpartum shifts to a full pivot in her agency—Kimberly unpacks the truth behind transformational leadership: it’s not about perfection, it’s about presence. She reveals how leaders are born not from accolades, but from alchemy—the kind that transmutes life’s toughest lessons into purpose-driven gold. You’ll hear Kimberly’s intimate story of letting go of 85% of her team, navigating a cashflow crisis, and choosing to speak from her scars (not her wounds) in service to others. If you’ve ever doubted your readiness or felt disqualified by your imperfections, this episode is your spiritual permission slip. Expect empowering metaphors (hello, lotus rising), sovereign truth-telling, and a high-frequency invitation to claim your seat at the table of conscious leadership. You’ll leave activated to share your story, refine your message, and rise with the energy of someone who’s been through the arena—and chose to lead anyway. 🔥 Ready to reign? Let’s rise.

    Ever tried fixing a leaky faucet, only to find your whole pipe system’s blown beneath the surface? That’s the difference between solving a symptom and solving the real problem. In this high-frequency episode of the Crown Yourself Podcast, Kimberly Spencer dives into the energetic and subconscious misalignments that sabotage your business strategies. Through a real-world client case study, she unearths what happens when you follow a strategy that “should” work—but doesn’t feel aligned. Whether you're stuck in hustle-mode, tweaking marketing tactics that don’t convert, or questioning why your offers aren’t landing, this is your invitation to stop treating leaves and start pulling roots. Kimberly breaks down how identity-coded beliefs, energetic dissonance, and lack of soul alignment are often the real culprits behind your "strategy problems." If you’ve been posting on social but not getting traction, hiring help without clarity, or throwing spaghetti strategies at a wall, this episode is your wake-up call to sovereignty. Learn how to read the feedback loops your business is showing you, align with your true path, and solve problems from the inside-out. Queen, it’s time to rise—not by doing more, but by being more aligned. Enjoy, sovereigns! Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, or your favorite podcast listening platform. You can also watch the episode on Youtube. Quotes: “Like attracts like. If you don’t like your marketing, neither will your audience.” ~ Kimberly Spencer “Symptoms are the surface. Subconscious beliefs are the roots.” ~ Kimberly Spencer “We don’t fix business systems with tactics—we heal them with presence.” ~ Kimberly Spencer Moments of Note: 00:00 – Welcome to the Problem Solving Revolution Fixing Leaks vs. Bursting Pipes: Why Surface Fixes Aren’t Enough Kimberly sets the tone by contrasting symptom-chasing with root-cause clarity—and reveals why this shift is crucial for high performers and conscious business leaders. 01:40 – Behind the Mic: Real Life, Real Business Podcasting with Kids, Bjorns & Big Lessons in Alignment A behind-the-scenes peek at how Kimberly blends motherhood with mission-driven messaging—and why batching on the go is a metaphor for sovereign leadership. 02:44 – Why Most People Solve the Wrong Problem The Sovereign Path to Self-Led Solutions and Business Sovereignty Kimberly emphasizes the value of self-trust, discernment, and subconscious mastery in solving your own problems without over-relying on external strategies. 03:18 – The Client Case Study That Changed Everything The Summit Strategy That Was Never Meant to Work Kimberly shares a real conversation with a client who hated summits—but kept hosting them. A masterclass in energetic misalignment and soul strategy disconnection. 06:07 – When Strategy Backfires: Like Attracts Like Why Your Audience Isn’t Converting—and How You May Be Repelling Them Your marketing energy matters. Kimberly breaks down how doing what you don’t enjoy reflects in your conversions (or lack thereof). 07:27 – Symptom vs. Source: Spot the Difference The Hidden Cost of Treating What’s Not Broken From team hiring to low-energy marketing tweaks, Kimberly exposes how seemingly smart decisions can be distractions from true inner clarity. 08:26 – When Systems Break, It’s Not About the System Using Feedback Loops & Nervous System Signals to Find the Real Issue Your nervous system, beliefs, and business infrastructure are giving you clues. Are you listening? Kimberly shares how to decode the energetic data of your business. 09:17 – Profit First (Until You Don't): A Personal Confession How Inconsistent Implementation Cost Us Our Momentum Kimberly gets raw about straying from the Profit First system and the fallout that followed. A powerful lesson in staying faithful to what works—not what feels convenient. 10:28 – The Weeding Metaphor That Will Shift Your Mindset Leaves Are Symptoms. Roots Are Beliefs. Which Are You Pulling? A spiritual gardening metaphor reveals how business, like nature, repeats the problem when the roots aren’t fully removed. The medicine is in the metaphor. 12:08 – Identity-Coded Beliefs: Your Hidden Blocks to Success Why “I Just Need More Time” Isn’t the Real Story Kimberly teaches how the words you use reveal deep subconscious programming—identity-level beliefs that sabotage high performance and energetic congruence. 13:12 – The Truth About Social Media Visibility You’re Not Being Social—You’re Just Broadcasting Posting ≠ presence. Kimberly shares why most “visibility strategies” fail and what it really takes to build community that converts. 14:28 – Are You Solving Symptoms… or Healing Systems?

David Greenberg: The occult is a large body of hidden knowledge. It encompasses natural law, psycho-spiritual laws... 09:06 – The Hermetic Principles: Mentalism & Universal Laws David Greenberg: Mentalism is my favorite principle.

  • Astrology, Archetypes & the Art of Becoming with Luna Mammon

    Astrology, Archetypes & the Art of Becoming with Luna Mammon
    Apr 24 2025

    What if your soul had a map—and all you needed was the language to read it?

    In this alchemical, soul-stirring episode of The Crown Yourself Podcast, Kimberly Spencer dives into the stars with Luna Veronica Mammon—a Scorpio Rising, gothic goddess, astrologer, and founder of the Baby Witch Academy and Academy of Astrological Arts.

    Together, they explore the mysticism and grounded practicality of astrology, archetypes, and using cosmic cycles to make empowered, soul-aligned choices. From her high school librarian guiding her into the mysteries of the birth chart to decoding deep subconscious patterns through planetary placements, Luna reveals how astrology is not about your identity—it’s about your evolution.

    You’ll hear:

    • How archetypes help us understand and embrace our multidimensional selves
    • What each zodiac sign needs permission to do (this is gold, Queen!)
    • The balance between free will, fate, and planetary alignment
    • What to look for in your chart for love, business, purpose, and money

    This is an episode that reminds you: you are divinely designed, and the universe is co-conspiring with you.

  • Alchemizing Fire: How to Turn Burnout Into Fuel for Your Empire

    Alchemizing Fire: How to Turn Burnout Into Fuel for Your Empire
    Apr 17 2025

    There’s a reason fire mesmerizes us—it destroys, purifies, and ignites. In this potent episode of Crown Yourself, Kimberly Spencer invites you to sit by the metaphorical flame and reflect on the moments in business and life when the fire almost went out... or completely burned everything down.

    From cleaning ashes in her Texas fireplace to unpacking deep leadership lessons, Kimberly explores how our past experiences—those “ashes” of failure, fear, and frustration—can either smother our next big vision or nourish the soil for our next empire.

    🔥 Have you ever poured the past onto a present dream and wondered why it fizzled?
    🔥 Are you ready to extract wisdom—not wounds—from what burned you before?
    🔥 What would change if your strategy included both soul and structure?

    Kimberly shares real-life examples, including how bacon fat turned into the ultimate firestarter (yes, really), and how business data is less about spreadsheets and more about sovereignty.

    This is not your typical motivational fluff. This is a masterclass in energetic reinvention—where manifestation meets metrics, and visionary fire meets grounded follow-through.

    If you’re ready to reignite without burning out—this episode will stoke your fire, sharpen your leadership, and help you alchemize the ash into gold.
