How a high-achieving organizational leadership expert went from recreating the wheel to reclaiming her health, joy, and revenue with the Luxe CEO Inner Circle
When Alycia Huston, a San Diego-based organizational leadership expert, first stepped into the Luxe CEO Inner Circle, she wasn’t struggling to find success; she was drowning in it. This is her case study.
Despite a thriving business and an impressive background in STEM and biopharma, Alycia was battling a familiar challenge faced by high-achieving women entrepreneurs: hidden bottlenecks, burnout, and blurred boundaries. In her words,
“Success felt hard. I was jumping when clients said jump—it was costing me my peace.”
Here’s how her journey evolved and how she turned hard-earned success into a business that finally serves her.

The “Before” Reality: Burnout in Disguise
From the outside, Alycia’s business was booming. She had built a respected consulting brand focused on culture and operations inside organizations. Clients were flowing in. But behind the scenes?
- She was constantly recreating her client process from scratch.
- Her message was fragmented, leaving her visibility stalled.
- She struggled to articulate her brilliance in a clear, aligned way.
- Most importantly, her business was draining her health, peace, and time with family.
“I felt compartmentalized. I couldn’t show up fully when things felt disconnected.”
She was successful, but the cost was far too high.
Enter the Luxe CEO Inner Circle
Alycia and Shayla met at a Luxe Your Business Experience event in San Diego, where Alycia’s brilliance was immediately apparent. But it wasn’t until they sat down to talk about her business that Alycia realized she didn’t need another generic strategy; she needed a tailored container that supported the way *she* works.
She joined the Luxe CEO Inner Circle with a few key desires:
- To build a sustainable framework that didn’t require over-functioning
- To align her messaging with her values (women-focused, men-welcoming)
- To operate from peace, not panic
And that’s where the shift began.
“I had to trust myself to know this was the right next move.”
She didn’t just join a program; she aligned with a space that honored her brilliance and her humanity.
The Luxe Transformation
Here’s what changed once Alycia committed to doing business her way:
✅ Framework, Not Freestyle
Shayla helped Alycia extract her genius and structure it into a repeatable framework. No more wheel reinvention. No more compartmentalization. Just clear, powerful processes that aligned with her essence.
✅ Revenue Clarity
They didn’t just *talk* about money—they tracked it, strategized for it, and reverse engineered her goals.
“What you focus on expands—but only if there’s a plan to support it.”
✅ Mindset Mastery
From chasing everything to pinning misaligned offers, Alycia learned that success doesn’t mean doing it all.
“I gave myself permission to focus on what would make me masterful.”
✅ Health & Wholeness
While scaling her business, Alycia also released over 80 pounds, prioritized her well-being, and created space for grief after the loss of her father—all within a community that supported *her*, not just her business.
The Luxe Results: Revenue + Rebirth
Since joining the Luxe CEO Inner Circle, Alycia has:
- Doubled her annual revenue
- Designed and launched new programs that reflect her full brilliance
- Prioritized herself, her wellness, her time, her joy
- Built a collaborative ecosystem where she opens doors for other leaders
“The Luxe CEO Inner Circle didn’t just support my business growth—it helped me reclaim *me.”
Her Luxe CEO Evolution
Alycia now leads from overflow, not depletion. She curates spaces where others can rise, just like she did.
When asked how she would describe her Luxe evolution, Alycia graciously responded.
“From not being fully sure to standing in who I know I am—this is my Luxe CEO evolution.”
That’s what she stands for.
