Ep.10 Leeza Smith / Community Leader
on Reconnecting With Play, Owning Your Voice, And Celebrating Your Unique Expression
Sometimes we adult so hard we get pulled away from what matters most — the simple, unexpected things in life that bring us joy for joy’s sake, like the way we used to feel as kids. Leeza Smith joins Ewelina on the show today to remind us that reconnecting with our childhood versions of self and embracing the parts and pieces that we’ve abandoned are powerful means for cultivating deeper authenticity.
Leeza shares her journey on finding fulfillment from her passion projects — her (previous) podcast and (current day) “Rant and Release Circles”, her journey with owning her voice, and how self development has helped her celebrate her unique personal expression in the world. And for the fellow astrology lovers listening: there’s no shortage of woo-woo with Leeza (and we’re HERE for it) 💫
There’s so many juicy wisdom nuggets in this one friends — be sure to have pen, paper, or your Apple Notes app ready for ALL the mantras, affirmations, and reminders !!

Leeza Smith is the creator of Rant & Release Circles. Rant & Release is a monthly women's group that provides a platform for women to come together and engage in meaningful discussions on various topics. The group organizes events either virtually or in person in the Boston area. These gatherings offer a unique blend of connection, vulnerability, and fun, creating a supportive environment for women to express themselves freely.
At each event, participants have the opportunity to share their thoughts, experiences, and emotions in a non-judgmental space. The group encourages open and honest conversations, allowing women to vent their frustrations, concerns, or simply share their everyday experiences. This aspect of "ranting" serves as a cathartic release, helping women unload their emotional burdens and find solace in the company of others who can relate.
