How letting go of outdated identities, scaling authenticity, and integrating personal healing can reshape a real estate career and a life. In this episode of Wisdom from The Helm, Danielle Wilkie and Heather Frick sit down with Lacey Newman, a top 1% agent, founder of Elevated Living Advisory, speaker and business coach.

Lacey shares the raw, real story behind ending a successful business partnership, stepping into her coaching work, and creating a more integrated, powerful version of her leadership. From identity loss to personal brand-building, this is a must-listen for women navigating transition, reinvention, and the courage to build what’s next.

Key Takeaways:

• Why Lacey chose to consciously uncouple from a thriving real estate partnership after 9 years.
• How inner child work, fear of failure, and identity shifts shaped her next chapter.
• What it means to scale authenticity and the difference between a wound and a scar.
• The GOLD Framework: Lacey’s powerful tool for transforming struggle into story and brand.
• Why healing is the hidden ROI of personal storytelling and how it fuels visibility and connection.
• Lacey’s next edge: owning the stage, writing her first book, and creating space to create.

The Helm was created to help more seasoned women in real estate confidently launch and scale their coaching businesses.

We bring together a community of seasoned women ready to share their hard-earned wisdom and shape the future of the industry.

Through proven coaching frameworks, practical business strategy, and deep, real-world connection, we help women transform their expertise into profitable, purpose-driven coaching practices.
