If you or someone you know has been affected, we encourage you to reach out for support. You can contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673) for confidential support and resources. You can also visit RAINN.org for more information.

This week on Regardless, I have the honor of speaking with performance coach, trauma specialist, speaker & influencer, the one & only: Annalie Howling. Have you ever been told to be the “good girl”? You know, that message to put everyone else's needs before your own and dim your light to keep others comfortable? We explore these challenges that so many women face, learning from a young age not to trust ourselves and the impact this has on our self-worth. It's no wonder we often find ourselves people-pleasing or freezing in uncomfortable situations. Annalie and I delve into trauma responses—freeze, fight, and fawn—and the immense pressures of societal expectations, from both men & women. We also discuss the importance of embracing our true selves and why it's absolutely okay to be "too much." Annalie shares invaluable insights on overcoming trauma, shame, and the habit of people-pleasing. We also discuss practical tips for owning your truth, prioritizing self-compassion, and breaking free from the fear of judgment. And don't forget to check out Annalie's latest book, Unapologetic, available online at Target, Walmart, Amazon, Barnes & Noble.

Today, I'm so excited to introduce you all to a very special guest: my new roomie, Jisu Kim! Jisu was on track to pursue a career in medicine when she quit her job in the emergency department and walked away from medical school to become a full-time wellness and lifestyle content creator. Her content, ranging from sharing healthy habits to friendship advice, continues to inspire other young women to prioritize their health and become the best version of themselves. As someone who has personally had some wild (and not all positive) experiences with roommates and female friendships over the years, I'll be the first to say it: building deep, authentic friendships is freaking HARD, you guys!

Maybe you just needed to have oneeee last night together, even after you were technically broken up… Well today, we're here to tell you that it's okay to break up, work on yourself, and then leave the door open for potentially getting back together. At least, that's what our guest Kaylin did not once but *three times* before entering her current relationship. (Which is going amazingly now, btw.)

Babe, if you're looking at your life wondering how much longer you can do all of this for… you're BURNT OUT.

POV: The waiter makes his way to you and asks, “And for you?” You have to act fast. Do you convince your best friend to go half-and-half with her entree? Do you ask the waiter which is his favorite dish? Do you say one thing, and then change your mind? Or, do you actually know what you want?  Confidence (or lack thereof) can manifest in many ways– even in something as simple as ordering food at a restaurant. There's actually a pretty clear connection between decisiveness, ego, and confidence.  Today we're diving into all things confidence with David Suson. As an author and keynote speaker in leadership, he specializes in helping you expose and address blind spots that are keeping you from achieving your sales, performance, and leadership goals. Tune in as he teach us the key to unlocking personal power and confidence in all areas of our lives: ⚡️What is confidence, really? ⚡The correlation between confidence, leadership, and decisiveness ⚡️Identifying your developmental “marker moments” ⚡️How your ego can prevent decisiveness  ⚡️Harnessing confidence in dating, interviews, and all life settings ⚡️The power of daily affirmation practice  

CHAPTER 33 Many of us are taught that there's only one way to succeed in corporate America: climb the ladder to the top, step by step. However, what if we told you that moving companies, trying a variety of lateral roles, and taking risks might actually help you reach the top more quickly?  Today we're chatting with Ravi Hampole, the SVP of Global Brand Creative at Lululemon Athletica. Reflecting on his 20+ years of experience in the brand and design industry, Ravi values curiosity in the workplace and advocates for trying new things throughout your career before settling down with one company.

CHAPTER 32  So you finally got the courage to go to a “networking event”-- first you listen to a panel, then have some light bites during a happy hour while schmoozing, etc. While there, you even mustered up enough courage to go up to someone who was on the panel. Now what? How do you ask for something without, you know, asking for something? What do you even say to them?  We've got you. In this episode, we'll be chatting with Dawn Andrews, a NeuroLeadership Institute certified results coach and expert on networking.

CHAPTER 31 Do you consider yourself a “wellness girly”? Do you go for a neighborhood walk every morning, drink an oat milk matcha latte, and attempt to recreate the latest Erewhon celebrity collab smoothie at home? Or, do you go into the office every day (no time for walk, matcha, or Erewhon smoothie most days) to work a 9-5?  News flash: you don't have to be either a “wellness girly” OR a “corporate girly.” You can actually be whatever girly you want to be. You can go for a morning walk on only Sundays, drink matcha some days and coffee other days, and also work a corporate job–or anything in between.  Today on Regardless, we're chatting with educator and herbalist Phoebe McPherson. As the co-founder of the functional mushroom company Fungtion (@letsfungtion), she offers natural solutions through mushroom elixirs to empower people to live their best lives. However, she started out as a “corporate girly” at the beginning of her career, too.
