About the show

Every entrepreneur has a story — the leap of faith, the late nights, the breakthroughs, and the moments that changed everything. On Master Your Bliss Life , host Lia Bliss sits down with entrepreneurs who've turned their passion into purpose, exploring the real, unfiltered journeys behind their success. From the pivotal decisions that shaped their paths to the hard-won lessons they learned along the way, each episode is a candid conversation about what it truly takes to build a life and business you love. Whether you're just starting out or scaling to the next level, these stories will inspire you to keep going — and remind you that your bliss is worth the pursuit. Lia knows the entrepreneurial journey firsthand. She started with cringy YouTube empowerment videos, a background in fashion and retail, and zero corporate pedigree — and turned it into Bliss Magic Consulting, a thriving LinkedIn strategy firm trusted by teams at Fidelity, T. Rowe Price, UBS, and beyond. After 8+ years of mastering LinkedIn strategy, personal branding, and business systems, she now trains executives, sales teams, and organizations across the country as a keynote speaker and consultant.

Ep.11 - Raise the Floor with Daniella Moiseyev

I want a lot of money and I'm not even a little bit sorry about it. Somewhere along the way women got trained that wanting a certain lifestyle, asking for what you're worth, saying out loud that you want more — that all of that makes you a bad person. It doesn't. Being a bad person makes you a bad person. You can be ethical, sleep well at night, step on exactly nobody, and still want the whole thing. This week I'm talking with Daniella Moiseyev, who has spent close to 30 years in financial services and came in with a stack of sticky notes and zero interest in pretending it was all a straight line. We get into the concept of your floor — the number in your account below which you start to panic — and how that floor isn't built in, it gets raised on purpose. She tells the story of negotiating her first salary from $18,500 to $21,500, which went against every "nice girl" rule she'd absorbed, and being so proud of herself she thought she was rich. We also get into the thing I've started calling borrowing someone else's belief. My coach recently told me the number I made this year should be more than triple that, and I told her she was insane. She just kept asking me why. And then it doubled. Daniella had the same thing happen with a mentor who wouldn't stop asking why she couldn't go for the top job, until she'd talked herself right into it. That's what the right people in your corner actually do — they don't shield you from hard truths, and they don't dismiss your dreams either. If you leave a conversation feeling energized, even a hard one, those are your people. If you leave feeling ugh, they're not. And then the part I needed to hear: you can have it all, you just can't have it all at the same time. Daniella lives by a line from Michael Porter — the essence of strategy is choosing what not to do — and she means it about her career, her house, her whole life. Plus her leadership mantra, which I want tattooed somewhere: the org chart says they work for you, but really, you work for them.

Ep.10- Because I Want To

I have hated the "start with why" exercise my entire coaching life. You know the one — you say what you want, someone asks why, and why, and why again, until you supposedly hit some noble, world-saving reason underneath it all. Every single time I did it I landed in the exact same place: because I want it. And then I'd throw judgment all over myself for not having a save-the-whales answer. This week in my coaching group I finally got language for why that never worked on me — and it turns out nothing is wrong with me. There are three doors into change: being, doing, and feeling. Some people start with the feeling and it moves them to act. Some start with the doing. I start with being. Ask me why and I've got nothing. Ask me what I want and I'll build you the whole plan. I also walk you through a decade-mapping exercise that wrecked me in the best way — going back through every year of your life and marking four things: what made you proud, what brought you joy, where you carried a burden that wasn't yours, and where shame showed up. Watching shame cluster in my early twenties and then thin out while the proud stuff took over? That's not a summer rebrand. That's years of different decisions finally showing their fruit. (Also: you apparently can't realistically plan past three years. Which is a relief.) The moment it clicked was booking a Disney World trip for me and my son — crying at the confirmation screen because I knew what I wanted, I did what it took, and the feeling showed up last. It always shows up. So here's what I want you to take with you: you do not need a grand, bigger-than-you reason. "Because I want to" is a complete sentence. -----> Done being invisible on LinkedIn? <----- LinkedIn Mastery is my on-demand course for turning a quiet profile into actual business conversations — algorithm, profile, content, outreach.

Ep.9- What Are You Spending to Feel? with Katherine Tipper

I've never told this story publicly before: for the five years after my son was born, I was heavily discouraged from going into entrepreneurship — told, essentially, that starting a business or hiring a coach could put my child support at risk. No shade to anyone; we all operate from where we think safety lives. But when I finally started my business, I cleaned out my 401(k) to do it. Less than twenty grand, a bigger tax bill than I bargained for, and zero regrets. Katherine calls that an "alternative investment." I call it the best bet I ever made on myself. This episode with Katherine Tipper — one half of the husband-and-wife team behind a 27-year-old pension firm, and the voice behind the 401(k) Couple and Planarchy podcasts — went straight past 401(k)s and into the stuff nobody teaches you: money is an emotion. We get into why retail therapy actually "works" (it fakes the feeling of progress), and Katherine's game-changing reframe: name the emotion you're chasing first, then ask whether you actually need to spend money to get there. Sometimes it's a new couch. Sometimes it's a three-dollar donut in a park, or a stack of France books from the library. We also go deep on what it really looks like to build a business with your spouse — roles, boundaries, and the very real difference between your marriage voice and your work voice (turns out you cannot pitch a great idea through the shower curtain). Katherine's the queen of the berets, and there's a whole thread here about becoming more visible as you get older instead of less, once you stop caring whether 99 people think you're insane and start caring about the one person who recognizes you. If you're starting a business, or eyeing a second act, this is the honest version: entrepreneurship is the most intense interpersonal work you'll ever do, running a business is far more creative than anyone tells you, and passion doesn't pay unless you get strategic about the vehicle. Find the emotion. Then find a way to get paid for it.

Ep.8- Build It to Sell It

Two years in, something clicked for me: for the first stretch of a business you say yes to everything, and then one day you wake up and realize it's time to start saying no. Last week Laura got me thinking about that, and this week I went down the rabbit hole — because the thing nobody tells you when you're just trying to make rent is that the real money isn't in running the business. It's in building something you can walk away from. This one's about the least sexy, most important work you'll ever do as a founder: getting everything out of your head and onto paper. I talk about the trap of the founder-led business — where you're the brand, the product, and the salesperson all at once, and you literally can't sell yourself — and how I've spent the last few months writing SOPs for every obnoxious little click of my mouse so that one day my business can run without me in every seat. Whether you want to sell in five years or you just need your first client this week, the move is the same: document your processes, define the roles, and get crazy flexible with what you offer. (That's literally how my VIP days were born — someone told me what they wanted and I said "yep, great," then built the program after.) Building to scale and building to sell are the same muscle. And no, you don't need a fancy title or a search-engine-optimized name for what you do. Just say what you do. Let your clients call you the Queen. The goal here is to make you a millionaire. I mean that. I'm on this ride right alongside you — sharing everything as I learn it, from every woman I sit down with who's already been there. -----> LinkedIn Mastery: My On-Demand Course <----- Ready to make LinkedIn actually generate business?

Ep.7- Who, Not How with Laura Garfield

Every so often you sit down with someone and realize you've been quietly running the same playbook in two different lanes, she does video, I do LinkedIn, and the whole conversation just turns into "yes, exactly, THIS." That's my episode with Laura Garfield, co-founder of Idea Decanter and the woman who introduced me to Mitch Slater and genuinely changed the trajectory of my business. I owe her. The line that stuck with me most: "Who, not how." Laura shared a story from Dan Sullivan's book about a CEO who tried to sell his own business without any experts, tanked the deal, and then, after finally learning to bring in the right people, went and fell off his own roof in retirement because he still wouldn't call a guy. The universe will make you learn the lesson. So stop trying to clone yourself and go find your who. We also got into the thing nobody warns you about when you're starting out: say yes to almost everything for the first couple of years, then find the guts to start saying no. That's how you actually niche down. Laura and her partner pivoted from making videos for wineries (yep that's where the name Idea Decanter comes from) to owning one of the hardest, most regulated corners of the market: financial services. Because when you get specific enough that the airline pilot down the street feels like you're talking directly to him, marketing stops being a grind and starts being magnetic. And if you've ever felt like a failure because you weren't 10x-ing every single year this one's for you. Slow, steady, and specific still wins.

Ep.6– Know Where Your Clients Are Right Now

People keep asking me the same question: how did you go from one client to $300,000 in two years? Here's the honest answer — networking. Not the cringey, transactional kind. The real kind. So this is the straight-advice episode where I break down exactly how to do it. It starts with the single most important thing in your entire business: knowing exactly who your ideal client is. Not just the psychographics (are they open to the work?) but the demographics too — age, stage, income, geography, job title. I tell the story of the guy with a massage studio in Utah who wanted to target a married NYC executive… and why I had to laugh and ask if he thought the man was flying in for monthly massages. Once you know your person, you draw a circle around them and ask one deceptively simple question: where are these people right now? Then you go there — associations, social clubs, the nicest gym in town, run clubs (yes, even though I hate running), masterminds, galas. Sometimes you have to buy your way into the right rooms, and I'll tell you why that's an investment, not an expense. (Also: do NOT volunteer — you want to work the room, not work the event.) I also get into the follow-up system that turned 400 hallway conversations into an email list, why "no new friends" is a terrible mindset for an entrepreneur, and how the right networking can fund the mission you actually care about. Know your person, know where they are, then go show up — for real. P.S. I'm about to start hosting in-person meetups in the cities I travel to — follow along so you can come get coffee or cocktails with us. -----> LinkedIn Mastery: My On-Demand Course <----- Ready to make LinkedIn actually generate business?

Ep.5– Stop Asking People to Marry You Before They Date You with Hailey Walker

My third relaunch guest is Hailey Walker — and this one's personal, because a year ago I did one of my very first VIP days with her, back when we were both terrified, broke, and just hoping our businesses would work. A year later, we got to compare notes on what actually happened. Hailey is the founder of Echoroot Growth Consulting, where she helps mission-driven people — nonprofits, coaches, consultants, community builders — turn their vision into a movement with real marketing systems and automation. We get into the thing nobody warns you about with entrepreneurship: it's not just the financial roller coaster, it's that you're in charge of every single decision and can reshape your entire business at any moment. The most useful part might be the brutally honest offer-and-pricing talk. Hailey started with a $20k six-month package and kept hearing "this is what I need… but not right now." As she put it, she was asking people to marry her before they'd even dated her. We cover how she rebuilt her offer ladder, how one webinar pulled in 220 leads, what it felt like to land eight clients at once (and lose her sleep over it), and how she's now building a group program so she can scale without burning out before starting a family. If you're an entrepreneur in the messy middle — pivoting, repricing, never feeling ready or arrived — this one's a gift. Bring a notebook.

Ep.4- Feeling Sexy Is Not Abandoning Yourself

Going back through the old episodes, our #2 most-streamed of all time was called "Feel Sexy" — and rewatching it, I realized I never actually said the thing I meant. So here's the redo. Feeling sexy has nothing to do with how much you spend on yourself. Real self-care isn't consumerism or a weekly massage — it's not abandoning yourself. I've been single for most of 15 years, so I started treating myself the way I treat the people I love: I literally ask myself, "baby girl, what do you need?" and then I go get it. Coffee, a nap, a hard boundary — whatever the most loving action is. That's the filter for everything: what's the highest degree of love I can give myself right now? Sometimes that's booking the massage and the sitter. Sometimes it's NOT spending money you don't have. And when you do it on repeat, you build trust with yourself — the kind that lets you make scary business decisions and know you'll be okay, because you won't abandon you. I also get into Shelby Sapp's "don't double-dip the dopamine days" rule, why everyone is always selling something, performative hot girl energy, the insane beauty standards where I live, and how it took me a full year to sit on the couch and do nothing without guilt. As soon as the "shoulds" show up, that's your sign. Don't abandon yourself. -----> LinkedIn Mastery: My On-Demand Course <----- Ready to make LinkedIn actually generate business?

Ep.3– Take the Compliment and Run with Theresa Conti

My third relaunch guest is one of my favorite people to run into at a conference — Theresa Conti. We met at SWAY (shoutout to Sheri Fitts), and she's one of those friends where no time has to pass; we just pick right back up. Theresa spent 25 years building a business in financial services, sold it, and is now living proof of something I needed to hear: success is how YOU measure it, not what the world decides for you. We talk about why you can't just find your community — you have to build it on purpose, even when you're the "mama bear" doing all the organizing. We also get into the stuff nobody says out loud: why women wear selflessness as a badge of honor, how control over your money (not just having it) is what actually brings peace, and why she swears by harmony over balance. Theresa even pumped the brakes on me mid-conversation to ask what I was going to take instead of give — and I needed it. Plus the lesson I'm tattooing on my brain: when someone tells you you're amazing, take the compliment and run. No regrets, just lessons.

Ep.2– You Can't Take Everyone With You

This is my first full-length solo episode of the relaunch, and I wanted to get honest about something nobody warns you about when you actually start going after your bliss life: not everyone gets to come with you. I went back and listened to our #1 most-streamed episode — the very first one we ever launched, almost three years ago — and so much has changed. Kira and I don't talk anymore. I stopped working with Dad Boss and built my own thing. And I've made peace with what Mel Robbins nails: friendship comes down to age, stage, and proximity — and stage is the one that quietly ends things. People come for a reason and a season, and when you're on a fast growth trajectory, the timelines stop lining up. So here's the reframe I'm living by: treat your friendships like a sales pipeline. Stay with me. If I want clients, I know exactly where to go find them — so why leave my friendships to chance? I made a list of the places where the women I want in my life actually are (leadership clubs, business owner groups, masterminds, even a concert where a fellow entrepreneur complimented my outfit) and I started showing up on purpose. I also get into the self-check I run all day long ("What do you need, baby girl?"), why I block-and-delete the "don't get your hopes up" energy — we're here for the delulu — and how a 10-year plan turned into a two-and-a-half-year one once I got in line with what I'm actually meant to do. If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together — just know it won't always be the same people. Go outside and find yours. -----> LinkedIn Mastery: My On-Demand Course <----- Ready to make LinkedIn actually generate business?
