Uncopyable Women in Business
For women running businesses without a marketing department — and doing it all anyway.
Uncopyable Women in Business is the go-to podcast for women business owners and entrepreneurs who don’t have a marketing team… but still want to grow, stand out, and build a brand people remember.
If you're wearing all the hats - marketing, sales, operations, customer service - and you're ready to break through the noise with strategies that actually work in real life, this podcast is for you.
I'm Kay Miller — speaker, consultant, former #1 outside salesperson (a.k.a. “Muffler Mama”), and bestselling author of Uncopyable You and Uncopyable Sales Secrets. My passion is helping small-business owners and entrepreneurs create an advantage their competitors can’t copy - even if they’re doing everything themselves.
Each week, I host casual, fun, power-packed 30-minute conversations with remarkable women: CEOs, business owners, sales superstars, innovators, and thought leaders who’ve built success without big budgets or big teams.
You’ll hear their stories, strategies, and get instantly usable advice to help you:
- Build a magnetic personal brand
- Create simple, effective marketing - even with no marketing team
- Stand out in crowded markets
- Grow your sales without being pushy
- Overcome setbacks, fear, and imposter moments
A little about me: I built an eight-figure family business with my husband Steve using the Uncopyable Framework we now teach to business owners and entrepreneurs. I’m here to help you do the same - in your own authentic, unforgettable way.

Episode 205 | Part 2: Leadership Lessons from 25 Years alongside General Colin Powell - Leslie Lautenslager
This episode is Part 2 of my delightful conversation with Leslie Lautenslager. She gives more behind-the-scenes examples that show who General Powell was away from the spotlight. She shares insights on respect, trust, HUMOR (!), and the quiet moments that defined their working relationship.
Leslie also reflects on fear, responsibility, and what it means to serve at the highest levels of leadership. She shares the moments that scared her, the lessons she learned by being “thrown into the deep end,” and why protocol work is never about being seen, but about making others feel respected and safe.
Our conversation closes with reflections on General Powell’s friendships, legacy, and why Leslie ultimately felt called to write the book she once believed she never could.

She served as a trusted advisor and liaison to the General for 25 years, including his tenure as U.S. Secretary of State, where she was the Assistant Chief of Protocol for Ceremonials.
Beyond her government service, Lautenslager is a global leader in her field, having served as President of Protocol & Diplomacy – Protocol Officers Association from 2016 to 2020. An accomplished author and trainer, she penned the memoir "My Time with General Colin Powell" and has contributed to several academic texts on international etiquette.
