I'm calling out the mismatch between dreaming big and playing small—and how that incongruence can absolutely sabotage your goals and visions.In this episode, I dive deep into why it's not enough to simply want extraordinary results. You have to match that energy with bold action, resilience, and a willingness to step out of your comfort zone. Whether it's in your career, personal growth, or your impact on the world, the journey requires you to act in ways that align with your dreams—not just think about them.We'll cover:Why big dreams demand big actionHow fear, comfort, and “playing it safe” keep you stuck in ordinary resultsThe importance of investing in yourself and backing your vision wholeheartedlyHow to start embodying the person who already has what they desireWhat it really means to step into the extraordinary and leave ordinary behindThis episode is your loving (and direct!) reminder to stop waiting for someone or something to save you. You have the power to create the life, career, and impact you desire—if you're ready to show up boldly for it.Key TakeawaysBig dreams require big action: You can't create extraordinary results by acting in small, ordinary ways.Comfort is the enemy of progress: Staying safe and stagnant won't move you closer to your goals.Your greatest investment is in yourself: When you level up your skills, mindset, and actions, the ROI is limitless.Be bold, take risks: Extraordinary achievements come from taking leaps of faith and betting on yourself.Stop waiting for a “golden ticket”: You are the key to your success, not external circumstances or opportunities.Timestamps00:00 – Gratitude for your incredible support and updates on my journey03:30 – Why so many people dream big but act small07:45 – The trap of comfort and why it keeps you stuck13:20 – How to embody the person who already has what they want18:15 – My own experiences stepping into extraordinary action25:00 – Practical steps to align your actions with your dreamsContinue the ConversationLet's connect!

    In this episode, I dive deep into the often-neglected emotion of sadness and why it's crucial to give ourselves permission to feel it fully. Sometimes, we think we have to be happy, that we have to push through and keep a smile on, but the truth is—you're allowed to feel sad. You're allowed to grieve. You're allowed to release the emotions that weigh on you, without judgment, and without needing a reason.I remind you that sadness is not something to run from. In fact, embracing sadness can be healing. I explore how grief, sadness, and allowing yourself time to cry can release the emotional burdens that, when bottled up, turn into a heavy armor around your heart. This armor may protect you from being hurt again, but it also blocks love, connection, and joy from coming in.I share my own process of making space for sadness—whether it's crying in the car, screaming into a pillow, or sitting in stillness with my feelings. The act of releasing these emotions brings clarity, lightness, and a renewed sense of freedom. Sadness is here to serve you, not to define you. It's just a moment. And after this moment of sadness, you'll laugh again, feel joy again, and continue to move through life lighter and clearer.Key Takeaways:It's okay to be sad—don't feel guilty for taking the time to grieve or feel your emotions.Sadness creates emotional clarity and releases the burdens we carry inside.Crying or releasing emotions helps prevent emotional constipation—bottling up feelings only leads to emotional outbursts at inappropriate times.Sadness doesn't make you a sad or depressed person—it's simply one of many emotions we feel.Giving yourself space to process sadness leads to lightness, clarity, and emotional healing.Embrace sadness without judgment, and understand that it's part of the journey toward happiness, joy, and freedom.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction: Why sadness is an essential emotion to embrace01:16 – Releasing emotions: Giving yourself permission to grieve and be sad02:50 – Crying as healing: Why releasing tears is essential for your well-being04:04 – Grieving for yourself: Making space for emotional release05:45 – Embracing sadness: How this emotion helps create more room for joy and love07:30 – The importance of emotional release: Avoiding emotional constipation and bottling up feelings10:00 – Final thoughts: Making space in your calendar to release your emotions without judgment

I'm taking you back to a time when I almost got wrapped up in Puff Daddy's world. Yep, you heard that right—P. Diddy.But this isn't just a story about a near-miss with fame. It's a much bigger conversation about the way women are treated in the entertainment industry, the pressures we face to fit in, and the importance of listening to that inner voice that always knows what's best for us. In this episode, I share the moment I chose to walk away from what could have been a dangerous situation and how trusting my gut literally saved me from making a huge mistake.I want to highlight the societal pressures that push women to compromise their dignity and safety for opportunities that seem too good to pass up. We've all been there—feeling like we need to go along with things just to get ahead or be accepted. But this episode is a reminder that your self-worth is non-negotiable. You don't owe anyone anything, and no amount of fame or validation is worth sacrificing your safety or your values.Throughout this episode, I get real about my experiences and why it's so important for women to trust their intuition and stand firm in who they are. I'm here to remind you that you deserve to navigate your life with confidence, knowing your worth and setting boundaries that protect your energy.Key Takeaways:Trusting your intuition can protect you from dangerous situations and unwanted advances.Self-worth and confidence are essential for navigating challenges and making empowered choices.It's important to listen to your gut when faced with discomfort, especially in high-pressure environments.Women often face societal pressures that undermine their self-respect and boundaries.Building resilience from past experiences can strengthen your intuition and decision-making.Having clear personal boundaries is crucial, especially in the modeling and entertainment industries.Connect with me:Follow Erika on Instagram @thequeenofconfidenceAND If you want to get the private podcast you can pre-order my book here and get your bonuses https://thequeenofconfidence.com/becomingmagneticbook/

    Elevate Your Life: The Power of High Standards and Self-Respect

    In this episode, I'm diving into something I'm super passionate about—maintaining high personal standards and the values that drive them. It's not just about how others treat us; it's about how we treat ourselves. I'll be sharing how having my own fucking high standards has guided me in everything I do, from my relationships to my career.Back in 2012, I went through a business program that drilled this lesson into me, and let me tell you, it completely changed how I approach my life.But real talk: while I've nailed having high standards in my career, I've struggled with holding myself to those same standards in my personal health and wellness. It's been an ongoing journey, and I'm still figuring it out. In this episode I'll be talking about the discipline, systems, and self-respect it takes to level up in this area.Ultimately, it's about building self-trust and confidence by keeping promises to yourself, because when you do that, your self-worth and self-respect go through the roof.Takeaways: High standards are about personal values and virtues, not just external expectations from others. Disciplined actions build self-trust, which reinforces self-confidence and ultimately self-worth. Identify areas in life where discipline is lacking and focus on improving them systematically. Your self-worth is influenced by how well you keep your word to yourself. Boundaries are crucial for maintaining high standards and ensuring personal discipline. Achieving high standards requires clarity about personal values and consistent self-reflection. If you're serious about raising your standards and taking action toward your goals, tune into this episode and get inspired to make the changes you know you need.
