The Libby DeLucien Podcast

Christy Honeycutt has coached hundreds of executives. She’s worked inside fast-moving organizations, led high-performing teams, and sat across from decision-makers who are burned out but can’t say it out loud. She’s not just a leadership coach, she's someone who understands what it feels like to lead when you're not okay. In this episode, we sat down for a raw conversation about what happens when...

I’m under more pressure than I’ve ever been, managing companies, launching a book, navigating what leadership really looks like when the stakes are high… and yet, I’ve never felt more clear. In this episode, we go deep into: What next-level stress actually feels like and how I learned to stop letting it control me Why old versions of me would’ve cracked under this moment and what’s different now T...

This wasn’t just another chapter, this was the storm that tore everything open. In this episode, I share the bonus section from the book: the real story of what happened during Hurricane Ian, the loss, the chaos, and how it exposed the gaps in our business and in me as a leader. I talk about: Watching 98% of our customers disappear in 3 days Leading my team through the fear while I was falling apa...

You don’t need a perfect plan to move forward. You need one step, the one you can take today. In this episode, Chris and I go 1 Layer Deep into the real stuff: imposter syndrome, burnout, self-sabotage, and what it really means to stay aligned when life throws chaos your way. I’m sharing my honest truth about why I stepped out of coaching, how I reset after massive change, and what’s actually work...

Most entrepreneurs are showing up to game day… untrained, under-fueled, and exhausted. Then they wonder why they can’t scale. In this episode, I go deep into the mindset shift that changed everything for me: I stopped treating every day like a grind. I started treating it like game day with rhythm, recovery, and actual preparation. You’re not just a business owner. You’re an athlete mentally, emot...

There are seasons where you have to step away, not to escape, but to realign. In this episode, we talk about what it really looks like to pause, unplug, and let go of control… and how to know if what you’ve built can actually run without you. We don’t just talk about rest, we talk about reentry. How to come back clearer. How to come back changed. And why I refuse to return to anything that require...

Marvin Salcido built a multi-million-dollar company from nothing. Then, with everything on the line, he made the decision most leaders won’t. He shut it down. Not because he failed. Because he refused to keep building from misalignment. In this episode, we go 1 Layer Deep on what it means to release what’s no longer working, even when it looks successful on the outside. We talk about leadership, l...

The next level of your life doesn’t require more input, it requires subtraction. In this episode, we talk about what it really means to delete. Not delegate. Not reschedule. Delete. Because overwhelm isn’t always a time problem. It’s an alignment problem. It’s carrying things you were never meant to hold, saying yes to things you don’t actually value, and spending your energy in places that leave...

If someone talked to your kids the way you talk to yourself, you'd punch them in the face. But when it’s your voice, in your own head, you let it slide. You call it “motivation.” You call it “honesty.” But it’s not. It’s sabotage. And it’s the reason you’re stuck. In this episode, I’m going 1 Layer Deep on the real enemy most high performers are fighting, and it’s not the economy, it’s not the alg...

Most leaders are running their lives from a reactive state. They change the business because of someone’s complaint. They shift a decision because of pressure. They say yes because of guilt. And they call it leadership. But it’s not. In this episode, Chris and I share what it looks like to flip the script, to stop reacting and start leading with intention. This is what it means to live 1 Layer Dee...

Jen Rodgers is the founder of Just Peachy Clean, a million-dollar residential cleaning company. But when I walked into her home, what needed cleaning wasn’t just her space; it was her head, her patterns, her permission to live differently. This episode is about what happens when high-performing women stop hiding behind their success and start telling the truth about what’s not working. We didn’t t...

If your marriage is tense, your team is unmotivated, and your growth feels stuck, it’s not a business issue. It’s an alignment issue. In this episode, Chris and I talk about the hardest season we’ve had in a long time. We almost lost momentum in our business, in our relationship, and in our rhythm. Not because something broke… but because we drifted out of sync. This is the behind-the-scenes truth...

We’ve all said it. “I’m not ready.” “I’ll start when…” “Someday.” But what if that mindset is the very thing keeping you from living? In this episode, I go 1 Layer Deep with Hussein Hallak, entrepreneur, author of The Dark Art of Life Mastery, and mentor to over 6,000 startup founders, to dismantle the illusion of “someday” and challenge what we think we’re building toward. We talk about: The myth...

This is the episode I wish I had years ago. Because no one tells you what influence actually costs. Not the highlight reel. Not the headlines. The nights you can’t sleep. The kids you’re still raising. The pressure that builds while you're building. On this Date Morning, Chris and I go there. We talk about the heaviness that doesn’t make it into your content. There is a real tension between buildi...

Everyone wants better content. But no one wants to be the face of their business. In this episode, I go 1 Layer Deep with Caitlin Durning, CEO of Meraki Media and social media strategist for luxury brands like Rolls-Royce and Bentley, to talk about what’s actually missing from most business owners’ marketing. We’re not talking trends. We’re talking identity. Because if you’re not willing to show u...

I didn’t want to show up for this Date Morning. Everything felt off. Nothing was working. But we showed up anyway, and this is the real, raw conversation that came out of it. This episode isn’t polished. It’s what it sounds like when two people are trying to lead a life, a marriage, and a business, and admit that alignment isn’t automatic. We talk about what happens when everything feels heavy, an...

Writing a book was never about checking off a box for me. It was about pulling truth out of chaos. About organizing pain into purpose. About building something so clear, it would still speak for me long after I’m gone. In this episode, I bring on Michaela (Kayla) Fair, the ghostwriter who helped me do exactly that. Together, we go 1 Layer Deep into what it really takes to write a book that matters...

This isn’t about coffee. It’s about why, 500+ mornings in, Chris and I still wake up, sit down, and meet, even when it’s uncomfortable. Even when it’s easier not to. Date Morning has become more than a routine. It’s how we get back in alignment. How we call each other out without blowing everything up. How we lead from the same layer, not just the same house. In this episode, we unpack what’s chan...

Chris Schwab scaled a fully remote cleaning business across multiple countries. He built the systems. Delegated everything. Stepped out of the day-to-day. And still something felt off. In this episode, we go 1 Layer Deep into what actually keeps founders stuck. Because it’s not the lack of systems. It’s the lie we keep telling ourselves that “busyness” means we matter. Chris has coached hundreds o...

I used the 1 Layer Deep Framework on myself, and it broke everything wide open. This wasn’t a podcast we planned. It was the moment Chris and I stopped and asked: Are we actually aligned… or just busy? We were building momentum. Saying yes to everything. But deep down, we knew: We were moving forward in the wrong direction. This episode is the real-time breakdown of how we got honest about the lay...

Let me ask you something: Are you in preseason, game time, or off season? Most entrepreneurs are stuck in the wrong one, and it’s why you feel tired, off, or like you’re always behind. In this solo Firestarter episode, I’m breaking down what season you’re in... and why that answer could change everything. ► Why always being in “prep mode” is really just avoidance ► Why you can’t implement and lear...

You’re not underpricing. You’re underbelieving. Let me be real with you: If you’re undercharging, it’s not about the price; it’s about your belief. In this episode, I sat down with Bill Wilson, pricing genius, SaaS builder, and the guy who’s helped 400+ founders stop playing small, and we went all the way 1 Layer Deep on: 💥 The Good–Better–Best pricing model that changed the way I sell 💥 Why “af...

They said “date night” was impossible. So we made date morning our ritual. 500+ mornings later… our life and business will never be the same. In this raw, hilarious, and totally unfiltered episode, Chris and I go 1 Layer Deep on how our daily morning dates became the glue that keeps our relationship thriving—and our business scaling. ☕️ Real talk on: Why traditional “quality time” doesn’t work fo...

What’s keeping so many women stuck in burnout? Control. Overcommitting. Guilt. In this episode, I sit down with Angela Chanowsky—serial entrepreneur, coach, and founder of Unique Genius—for a raw, layered convo about how women overcomplicate business and motherhood… and how to finally let go without losing your edge. We go deep on: 🔥 Why women resist delegation (and what it costs them) 🔥 The myt...

What happens when you share your transformation with pride… and get body-shamed for it? This episode hits harder than usual. Chris and I go 1 layer deeper into the story behind a post that sparked backlash — and how it ignited a fire in me to rise higher, louder, and hotter than ever. We’re talking: 🔥 Turning shame into fuel 🔥 What to do when your growth threatens others 🔥 Navigating relationsh...
