In today’s energizing episode of BizBlend, we sit down with powerhouse founders Kellie Larsen and Leslie LaCosta of The Metamorphosis Studios. From corporate layoffs to building a transformative consulting firm, they share how messy beginnings can create magical outcomes. We dive into overcoming perfection paralysis, navigating business and motherhood, and why execution—not perfection—is key to entrepreneurial success. If you’ve been waiting for the "perfect moment" to start your business or project, this conversation is your wake-up call.

About the Guests:
Kellie Larsen and Leslie LaCosta are the dynamic duo behind The Metamorphosis Studios, a consulting firm specializing in real-world transformation projects—from HRIS overhauls to e-commerce operations. With over 20 years of executive leadership experience, Kellie and Leslie now empower organizations to not just strategize, but to build, launch, and pivot with resilience and authenticity.

Key Takeaways:

  • Start messy: Waiting for perfection often delays your growth—begin imperfectly and adjust along the way.

  • Embrace emotional leadership: Empathy, humility, and active listening are essential leadership traits today.

  • Find harmony in partnerships: Balancing structured planning with messy action leads to dynamic progress.

  • Motherhood lessons: Patience, resilience, and adaptability in parenting mirror the skills needed in business transformation.

  • Action over overthinking: Building momentum through practice is more valuable than seeking the perfect start.
