Send us a text*This episode is a replay of episode 3, one of my most popular episodes of all time, which originally aired on September 27, 2023. I thought it was time to bring it back to the surface for you to enjoy!*Today's episode is jam-packed and it really answers the question that I receive often of “Alyssa, what exactly do you DO?”I got into the work that I do because it has been absolutely life changing for me. I tried so many things to help with my endo symptoms and felt like nothing was working. Until I figured out a way to actually get to the root cause of my symptoms so that I could allow my body to heal. That is the same process that I use with my clients each and every day.And the process I am here to share with you today!In today's episode you will hear:What functional nutrition actually is and how it can help you even when you feel like nothing else has.How I determine the cause of digestive symptoms like bloating/endo belly, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, and more.How I identify the source of inflammation that can cause symptoms like pain, fatigue, and even infertility. How I identify exactly what foods your unique body is sensitive to that may be contributing to those inflammatory symptoms. …and so much more!Much love!

This episode was recorded on December 31, 2025. It's a simple pause at the end of the year to look at what actually made a difference, personally and professionally. In this solo episode of Grounded and Aligned™, Karen Gombault walks through how she reviewed 2025: time with people she cares about, a full year living in the south of France, and a business that now feels settled and right-sized. There is no push for reinvention here. No pressure to optimize. Instead, this is about noticing what already works—and making sure it stays protected. The episode also touches on a practical question she now asks clients and herself at year-end: What is one thing you don't want to bring with you into the next year? What this episode looks at: 1. What a full year outside Paris clarified about this moment in life 2. How space, boundaries, and reduced travel reshaped daily life and life decisions 3. Why stability and continuity can be a deliberate strategic choice, not a lack of ambition “There is nothing that I would change about this year.” — Karen Gombault Today's reflection is about discernment...knowing what deserves attention, and what to leave behind.

Are you chasing every gold star, climbing every ladder, and nailing every "right" mark—only to find yourself missing out on real fulfillment and meaningful connection? The relentless pursuit of achievement can sometimes leave us feeling lonely, disconnected from ourselves, and trapped in relationships that don't truly nourish our hearts. When ambition runs amok, the cost may be far greater than just burnout or missed vacation days—it can lead to self-abandonment and relationships that feel more like a cage than a home. In this episode, you'll discover how overachievement and perfectionism can sabotage our capacity for genuine connection—and what it takes to turn things around. Through honest storytelling and practical insight, the conversation explores the hidden costs of self-abandonment and the steps toward reclaiming self-worth, authenticity, and aligned love. Whether you're feeling the grind of burnout or yearning for more realness in your relationships, you'll gain tools for slowing down, getting honest with yourself, and opening up to relationships that feel like home. Coach Keren Eldad is an Executive Coach, Speaker, podcast host and the Author of the new book: GILDED - Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism and the Relentless Pursuit of More.   Episode Highlights 06:18 The roots of self-abandonment: Overachievement and relationship choices. 09:12 Societal pressure and the pursuit of external validation in partner selection. 10:27 Personal story: From self-betrayal to reconstructing identity and worth. 16:07 Building healthy love: The learning curve toward self-connection in relationships. 20:39 Embracing uncertainty: Letting go of control and playing to win in relationships. 26:56 Yellow flags in relationships: Burnout, overfunctioning, and sexless marriages. 31:29 Radical honesty and initiating difficult conversations. 35:51 Centering yourself before addressing relationship issues. 39:54 Tools, coaching, and the path to authentic relationships.   Your Check List of Actions to Take Pause and self-reflect: Practice taking a mindful pause before reacting in relationships to better understand your true feelings and needs. Identify your patterns: Bring awareness to tendencies like overachieving or people-pleasing that may be impacting your connections. Prioritize self-worth: Work on recognizing and affirming your own worth, rather than relying on external validation or achievement. Start small conversations: When something feels off in your relationship, gently broach the subject with curiosity rather than jumping into confrontation. Read for growth: Incorporate reading transformational books by thought leaders to cultivate self-awareness. Seek support: Consider working with a coach or therapist to dig deeper into your personal growth and relationship patterns. Practice radical honesty: Begin being radically honest with yourself about what you want and how you feel, as self-abandonment only perpetuates dissatisfaction. Accept uncertainty: Learn to embrace the unknown in relationships, allowing space for vulnerability and authentic connection rather than controlling outcomes.   Mentioned Gilded: Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism, and the Relentless Pursuit of More (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) The Way of Integrity: Finding the Path to Your True Self *Amazon link (book) Dare to Lead (*Amazon link) (book) Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough (*Amazon link) (book) The Work of Byron Katie (website) Brene Brown (website) Eckhart Tolle (website) Ram Dass (website) Louise Hay (website) ERP 494: Designing Love That Lasts: 6 Principles for Lasting Connection — An Interview with Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh ERP 174: How to Experience More Love in Your Relationship with Byron Katie 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Keren Elded Websites: KerenEldad.com Facebook: facebook.com/LiveWithEnthusiasm?_rdc=1&_rdr# YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCgGViwGVn_yrHkq3PQ9R_-Q Instagram: instagram.com/coachkeren/?hl=en LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/keren-eldad Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coached-with-coach-keren/id1467079024  

Last week Tony and D kicked off a two part series on four areas your advisor should have on their radar to help maximize your growth. In part two they cover the next two and get very practical about what real planning looks like when your life changes fast.First they talk about alignment. Your portfolio should match your lifestyle, your income needs, and your real world transitions, especially if you are a business owner selling a company, changing jobs, or moving into retirement. They explain why a plan cannot be rigid, why returns are not linear, and why you want someone you can treat like a personal CFO to help take emotion out and run the numbers when big decisions show up.Then they close with a simple question. Is your advisor a specialist or a generalist. If the advice feels generic, the investments look like a one size fits all model, or the answers sound like they are going in circles, that is a signal to ask better questions and demand a strategy built around your situation.

As we step into a new year, it's time to stop chasing goals that leave us drained, and start setting Godly goals that honor Him and bring peace, clarity, and direction.In this episode of The Finding Freedom Podcast, I'm sharing how to set goals with God, not from pressure, comparison, or hustle, but from prayer, Scripture, and obedience.This episode is especially for busy Christian moms who want to manage their time well while staying rooted in God's Word.In this episode, you'll learn:

It's the LAST podcast of 2025 so we're going DEEP! Whether you've listened to all 459 episodes or you're brand new to The Todd Durkin IMPACT SHOW, this one is going to hit you right in the heart and soul. This episode wraps up our powerful 3-part Annual Strategic Plan series and it's not just about goals or calendars… it's about your LIFE. In this episode, I invite you to slow down, breathe, take in the essence of this season and really feel this conversation. In Part 3 today, we zoom way out and ask the BIG questions that truly shape who you're becoming as a person and the life & legacy that you're creating. You're going to love it! Here's what to expect in Episode 459: Why this isn't just about having a great year — but about crafting a life that aligns with how God created you to live. The 10 deepest life questions I ask myself — questions around purpose, mission, values, faith, healing, legacy, and IMPACT. How your "Big 5" for Life should drive every decision you're making right now (whether you realize it or not). The difference between running from something vs. running to something — and which one is better. Why you can't build a new future while dragging old wounds, fears, or limiting beliefs into it. How to LET-GO of the past and move into a new future in 2026 and beyond. A powerful challenge to examine your relationship with God, your body, your mind, and your spirit. What it truly means to live a life worth telling a story about — and how your life is already teaching others something extraordinary.  Your Tombstone Statement. Why this should inspire you to live your best LIFE NOW!! This episode is meant to be experienced with an open heart, a willingness to be honest with yourself, and a journal in hand (or your Annual Strategic Plan). It's reflective. It's challenging. It's spiritual. It's empowering. And it's designed to help you step into 2026 — and beyond — aligned, intentional, and on-fire. If you're ready to stop drifting, start living even more on purpose, and answer the call on your life, this episode is for YOU. If this episode hits you deep, don't keep it to yourself. Please share Episode 459 on your social media, tag me on IG: @todddurkin, and let me know which of the 10 life questions spoke to you the most.

Episode Description What if the next goal isn't the answer? In this episode of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series, host Dr. Amy Vertrees speaks with Jessica Smarro, licensed therapist, certified life coach, and author of In Pursuit: Go After What You Want, Alive, Aligned, and Fully You. Jessica shares her journey from nearly 15 years working in jail diversion programs to helping high achievers “free themselves from the prison of an unmanaged mind.” Together, Amy and Jessica explore why so many accomplished professionals reach milestones only to feel disappointed, empty, or restless—and why this experience is far more common than we admit. This conversation dives into the subtle but powerful shift from chasing achievements to understanding the feelings we're actually pursuing. Jessica introduces her Freedom Framework, explains why self-worth must be uncoupled from accomplishment, and offers practical tools for navigating fear, imposter syndrome, and emotional discomfort without abandoning ambition. This episode is especially resonant for surgeons and high achievers who are successful on paper—but quietly wondering if there's more. What You'll Learn Why achievement alone often fails to create fulfillment How many goals are really about chasing feelings, not outcomes Why feeling good before achieving doesn't lead to complacency The danger of “arrival addiction” and how to step off the treadmill How to distinguish self-honoring goals from externally imposed ones A healthier way to work with imposter syndrome The difference between fixing yourself and understanding yourself How to create emotional safety through self-compassion Chapters / Timestamps 00:00:02 – Meet Jessica Smarro and the origin of In Pursuit00:02:03 – The disappointment of achievement and chasing feelings00:04:19 – The Freedom Framework: prison, path, and pursuit00:09:34 – Addressing the fear of complacency00:12:53 – Self-honoring vs. following predetermined paths00:18:11 – Rethinking imposter syndrome as useful feedback00:21:20 – Understanding yourself instead of fixing yourself00:35:12 – Creating emotional safety through self-compassion00:37:17 – Jessica's work, podcast, and upcoming group program Action Items Reflect on whether your current goals are driven by fear/lack or curiosity/wholeness Practice staying present with difficult emotions rather than bypassing them Experiment with separating self-worth from outcomes Use “compass checks” to assess alignment before setting your next goal Resources In Pursuit: Go After What You Want, Alive, Aligned, and Fully You – Jessica Smarro Jessica's podcast: Unblocked About the Guest Jessica Smarro is a licensed therapist, certified life coach, and author who helps high achievers pursue meaningful goals without abandoning themselves in the process.

If you're a sensitive creative, healer, or entrepreneur, then whether you use the word “launch” or not—you're always putting something out into the world. A new offer. A group program. A workshop. A book. An idea.And let's be honest: that visibility can feel vulnerable, overwhelming, and dysregulating.But what if launching didn't have to feel like forcing yourself into a mold? What if it could feel more grounded, intuitive—and actually energizing?In this episode, I'm joined by Danielle Weil, copy and marketing strategist and creator of LaunchFlow®, a methodology that helps expert business owners launch in a way that builds momentum without burnout. Over the past two decades, Danielle has written dozens of 6- and 7-figure launches and generated over $170M in sales—but her approach centers flow, alignment, and ease (not hustle, urgency, or bro-marketing tactics).We talk about:✨ What “energy-aligned launching” really means (and why it matters)✨ How to spot the sneaky signs that your strategy is out of sync with your natural rhythm✨ Why resistance might not be a mindset issue—but a sign that something's off✨ Common traps sensitive entrepreneurs fall into when launching—and how to shift out of them✨ Client transformation stories that show what's possible when you launch from a place of flow✨ Why having support to reflect your blind spots can help you come back into alignment✨ Danielle's “soapbox” message for anyone trying to find their way in business without selling outWhether you're launching a product, a service, a program—or simply yourself—this conversation is here to remind you that you don't have to sacrifice your energy, your well-being, or your truth to grow your business.✨ Connect with Danielle:LaunchFlow Roadmap: www.dwcopy.com/roadmapPodcast: Market Like a ParentInstagram: @daniellekweilLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/danielleweil✨ Connect with Anna:Free workshop — Let Yourself Be Seen: www.annaholtzman.com/beseenInstagram: @anna.holtzmanEmail: anna@annaholtzman.com

Immersed in rebranding and growth, she set aside other desires—like starting a family—to channel her energy into her entrepreneurial path. It was in this phase of complete surrender, driven by genuine joy and contentment in her work, that Stefanie experienced the power of letting go. She discovered that when she released her grip on specific outcomes and focused instead on finding fulfillment in the present, life's manifestations had a way of finding her.

In this final episode of 2025, Kaye Doran speaks into the collective grief following the tragic events in Bondi, Australia, offering a grounded shamanic perspective on how we can make an energetic difference and support those most deeply affected — without being pulled into fear, anger, or emotional overwhelm. During times of crisis, mass consciousness amplifies emotion. For those who are empathic or energetically sensitive, this can feel overwhelming and destabilising. In this episode, Kaye shares how to remain present, compassionate, and of service while maintaining energetic boundaries, emotional stability, and inner coherence. You’ll be guided through practical, heart-centred energy practices — including cord cutting, heart intelligence breathing, and heart–brain coherence — to calm the nervous system, clear emotional overload, and consciously direct love, compassion, and support where it is most needed. This episode is both a gentle transmission and a practical guide, reminding us that individual energetic alignment creates a powerful ripple effect. When we choose coherence over reactivity, and love over fear, we become a stabilising presence — not only for ourselves, but for the collective. As the year draws to a close, Kaye also invites reflection on gratitude, integrity, and letting go of control, encouraging a softer, more spacious approach to growth and service as we move into 2026. ✨ In this episode, you’ll explore: How to support collective grief without absorbing mass emotional energy Ways to make a meaningful energetic difference during times of tragedy Shamanic tools for nervous system regulation and emotional clarity Heart intelligence breathing for coherence, calm, and grounded presence Why love and compassion are the most powerful responses to crisis Closing 2025 grounded and stepping into 2026 aligned and present Subscribe to Inner Voice of Knowing Podcast by clicking the plus or follow button and let's get this journey started.

Key Takeaways:Reframe goals as guides, not judgments. Traditional output-focused goals can create pressure and burnout; goals should inform your direction, not define your worth or success.Wrap up the year holistically. Reflect on wins, surprises, and growth beyond numeric targets, release what no longer serves you, and recognize internal and relational progress as real achievements.Make goals human-centered, not just metric-centered. Reframing SMART goals to be Supportive, Meaningful, Aligned, Relational, and Tension-free ensures they strengthen trust, connection, and values alongside traditional metrics.Measure relationships, not just money. Track trust, reciprocity, affinity, consistency, and advocacy to prioritize connection and mission impact, understanding that financial outcomes naturally follow strong relational foundations. “Goals aren't good or bad. They are just what they are. They are information.” “If we're only measuring our worth by input and output, we're really missing a lot on what we're doing and the progress that we're making.” "Work can be joyful. Grace, ease, joy is sustainable. Hustle and grind is not.”- Maryanne Dersch    Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

The meeting is scheduled for the next day.A decision needs to be made. Teams are waiting for direction.As you review the materials one final time, you see it immediately:the analysis is incomplete. Key inputs are missing. Several assumptions haven't been tested.This is not new.You've been clear about expectations before. And there is no time left to send it back without delaying the decision.So you make a choice.In this episode of Grounded & Aligned™, Karen Gombault examines a pattern common at Director–SVP level: stepping in to protect outcomes, and the longer-term cost that decision quietly creates.This is not about commitment or competence. It is about what happens when responsibility repeatedly shifts toward you, without being explicitly agreed, named, or corrected.The episode explores how consistent intervention changes accountability, increases cognitive load, and alters how authority is experienced, not visibly, but structurally.If you often find yourself compensating so the business does not absorb the impact of someone else's gaps, this conversation will feel familiar.What this episode looks at:How repeatedly absorbing work that isn't yours reshapes accountability — even when done for sound reasonsWhy unresolved performance issues persist when consequences never land where they belongHow authority erodes quietly through accumulated mental load, not overt challengeThe difference between short-term decision protection and long-term organizational strengthWhen stepping back is not avoidance, but an intentional leadership decision“Staying accountable to outcomes is of course part of senior leadership. But taking on work that isn't yours repeatedly, that is not.” — Karen GombaultAt senior levels, leadership is not demonstrated by how much you absorb.It is demonstrated by where responsibility sits and how you install boundaries.Next stepIf this pattern shows up in your job, I offer a 15-minute Executive Pulse Call.One situation.Clear perspective.A grounded decision on what to do about it.

In this episode, Krista sits down with Dr. Kelly—leadership and nervous system expert, transformational speaker/author, business coach, and advanced Human Design reader—to explore what it really means to build a business in alignment. They unpack how Human Design can shape your offers, schedule, and messaging, why regulation (not hustle) creates sustainable growth, and how simple somatic practices help your affirmations actually land. You'll also hear how Krista and Dr. Kelly are weaving these tools into the Born to Coach Mastermind to support coaches in growing with clarity, ease, and integrity.

In January, we saw a who's who of tech leaders front and center at President Donald Trump's inauguration.Since, the White House has advocated for the build out of AI infrastructure and put a moratorium on state-level AI regulation. But the Trump administration also added a $100,000 fee to petitions for H-1B visas, which are widely used in the tech sector. To review the year in tech and Trump we called up Suyash Pasi, a research analyst and editor at the nonprofit Human Rights Research Center, who's been following this shift.

What if the health of your relationship depends less on finding the “right person” and more on becoming your truest self? That's the lens we bring to a frank, generous conversation with conscious relationship coach, intuitive guide, and author LaShawn McCrary. We explore why inner work is the starting line for aligned love, how to tell compatibility from true alignment, and what it takes to build a relationship where both partners feel safe enough to be fully seen.We also highlight LaShawn's two books. I Am Not An Option is a call to own your truth in dating—if you want marriage, say it, and let misaligned partners pass. Before We Go Any Further is a pre‑engagement workbook that guides couples through the conversations most skip: division of labor with kids, money expectations, boundaries around social media, conflict styles, and long‑term goals. You'll leave with questions that protect your future, language for asking your partner for what you need, and a compass for building agreements instead of assumptions.If this resonates, share it with someone you care about, hit follow to get new episodes, and leave a quick review telling us one hard conversation you're ready to have.

Who's ready for a great show this week?! I'm so fired up--the kids are home, Christmas is in the air, and today's episode is all about designing your most epic year yet — 2026. This is Part 2 of our Annual Strategic Planning Series. Last week we reflected on 2025. This week, we look forward to 2026 and make a decision about who we are becoming, what we are creating, and how we will achieve maximum success and fulfillment. In this episode, I walk you through: How to intentionally design 2026, instead of letting it happen by accident. Why choosing your ONE WORD for the year is a non-negotiable. The shift from what you need to do to who you must become. How raising your daily standards changes everything. We also talk about how I'm personally structuring my year and why fewer, clearer priorities lead to more focus and fulfillment. We dive into practical frameworks, including: Creating daily non-negotiables, as winners don't negotiate with themselves. Building a calendar that reflects your true priorities. Avoiding and eliminating energy leaks and distractions that drain your momentum. Upgrading your environment, your inputs, and the people around you. Installing weekly and quarterly review systems so you fall to your systems, not your excuses. Lastly, I want to challenge you with "10" powerful questions that will frame your entire 2026 year, including: What would a 10-out-of-10 year in 2026 look like? Who must I become to deserve the life I say I want? What habits must be installed, eliminated, or reinforced? What am I willing to say 'no' to so I can say 'yes' to living my best life? Where do I need more discipline—and where do I need more grace? What would my future-self thank me for if I started this habit or action-step today? This episode is a coaching session, a mindset reset, and a call to action as we head into the holidays. Let's be sure to slow down. Breathe. Relax. Pray on your vision. And commit to designing your 2026 year with deep purpose and conviction. If this episode hit home, please share it with a friend, teammate, or family member.

What if smart sellers stopped following rigid pricing rules and started making decisions that actually align with their values, their clients, and the kind of business they want to build. In this episode of the Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch challenges some of the loudest advice in the sales and entrepreneurial space, especially the idea that you should never make concessions or that "charging your worth" looks the same for everyone. Instead, Nikki invites you into a more thoughtful and empowered way of leading your business, one rooted in clarity, discernment, and long term relationships. Nikki shares her personal philosophy around concessions and why flexibility, when done intentionally, can strengthen trust rather than weaken your position. She explains that smart sellers understand the difference between discounting out of fear and making a strategic choice based on shared values and mutual respect. Drawing from her own experiences, Nikki walks through the criteria she uses when deciding whether to offer a concession, including a client's level of investment, participation, appreciation, and commitment to the work. These are not emotional decisions made in the moment. They are conscious choices grounded in leadership and self trust. Throughout the episode, Nikki breaks down why blanket advice from business gurus often falls short. What works for one entrepreneur may not work for another, and blindly following rules can leave you feeling boxed in or resentful. Nikki emphasizes the privilege and responsibility of being the CEO of your own business. You get to decide what feels right, what aligns with your values, and how you want to show up for your clients. That also means setting boundaries, communicating expectations clearly, and making sure concessions are never one sided. Listeners will also hear Nikki reflect on lessons learned from times when concessions did not work out as planned. She explains how these moments became opportunities to refine her criteria, strengthen her communication, and recommit to relationships that feel mutually beneficial. The focus is not on short term wins, but on lifetime client value and partnerships built on respect and transparency. This episode is a powerful reminder that smart sellers do not sell from fear or rigidity. They sell from confidence, intention, and clarity. If you have ever questioned whether you are doing sales the "right" way, this conversation will give you permission to trust yourself, lead with integrity, and create a business that works for you and your clients. Nikki invites you to join the Sales Maven Society. Take advantage of this opportunity to work together with you and Nikki.

Happy Mindful Monday, Everyone!In this week's episode, our host Allie Brooke sits down with the amazing Regena Rosa-Celeste. Through her own journey of transformation and healing, she was once a stressed-out, overwhelmed, unhappy, and dissatisfied Realtor. After 13 years of a successful career, Regena almost threw in the towel and let it all go, until she took control of her emotions and career, realizing that she had the tools to turn it all around. Using mindfulness, yoga, meditation, prayer, and soulful alignment, she learned how to integrate these powerful tools for success in my business and into her life. Now, as an international speaker, best-selling author, and recovering perfectionist, Regena is commonly known as the Internal Peace Revolutionist, specializing in speaking, coaching, and teaching skills of internal peace to realtors, investors, and conscious-minded entrepreneurs. Conscious-minded men and women hire her to support them in getting unstuck and out of the quicksand that they feel in their business and personal lives. Knowing that each individual is responsible for their own happiness and fulfillment, she specializes in teaching tools of lasting transformation and helping people create results that stick. Changing the world and how the world experiences peace, with over 50+ tools and techniques, she equips her clients and students to empower themselves for lasting change. She knows that teaching people the tools of inner peace creates world impact, and believes that each person is responsible for their own happiness in the world, thus my commitment to helping as many mindset shifts as possible so that we can all live in a state of lasting internal peace. By cultivating inner peace, there is more abundance in the world, more wealth available, and an opportunity to achieve greater health & a deeper connection to each individual's life mission and purpose, ultimately creating more sustainable inner peace collectively. Episode TopicsNatural remedies for stress, anxiety, and burnoutThe link between inner peace and real-world successWhy mindset—not vacations—creates lasting joyHow to let go of perfectionist and people pleasing tendancies How To Connect w| Regenahttps://www.internalpeacenow.com/https://www.instagram.com/internalpeacerevolutionist/ The Growth METHOD.

In today's episode, I'm joined by Hannah Wells and Sarah Smith, the practitioners behind The Mending—a virtual wellness collaborative focused on root-cause, personalized healing. Both Hannah and Sarah share their deeply personal stories of navigating years of diagnoses, symptoms, and frustration within both holistic and allopathic medicine. Their journeys led them to a quieter, more discerning approach to wellness—one rooted in listening to the body, integrating science and soul, and resisting the pressure to chase every trending protocol. If you've felt overwhelmed, discouraged, or unsure where to begin in your health choices, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a grounded path forward.Work with The Mending CollaborativeConnect with Hannah + Sarah on Instagram

What does quiet power mean to you? Can you trust it? Where does it live? How do you engage with it? Pondering,  Angela

Welcome to a new day. What is good? What is fueling your actions today? Alchemizing,  Angela

Hey, humans, we've arrived at the final and perhaps most powerful part of our "Why" series! We started with personal excavation, learned how to apply it to decisions, and now we're talking about the ripple effect. When leaders operate from their why, it changes everything. I'm going to show you exactly how one individual's clarity creates a collective wave, leading to aligned culture , higher engagement, and most importantly, giving permission for your team to bring their whole selves to work. I'll share stories from my own career, from seeing a highly successful leader realize his life was out of alignment to the quiet high-performer who finally discovered their passion for DE&I. I'll even pull back the curtain on how defining our collective why as "lifting lives" led to record-breaking success in a past organization. Purpose attracts purpose , and as we head into 2026, it's time to stop waiting for a crisis and choose to live your why today. This episode wraps up with your January Challenge to create a lasting impact in the New Year —from filtering decisions through your why to assessing alignment in your hiring process. It's time to put the drop in the ocean and watch it make a wave. Don't miss this final step in turning individual transformation into collective impact! Stacy More episodes at StacieBaird.com.

Who's ready to take a breath, pause, and REFLECT with me during this busy, yet beautiful holiday season? This week's episode is a POWERFUL and timely one that can absolutely change the trajectory of your next year. Before you sprint into 2026 with new goals, new plans, and big dreams, I want you to PAUSE. Because clarity, confidence, and courage doesn't just come from looking forward — it comes from looking BACK and extracting the GOLD from 2025 also. And that's exactly what we are doing today. This episode is all about the transformational power of reflection and why it is STEP ONE in creating your BEST YEAR YET. You ready?! WHY REFLECTION MATTERS (5-GAME-CHANGING REASONS): 1. Reflection creates clarity amid the chaos. Life is loud. Fast. Busy. Reflection slows the noise, shifts you from autopilot to intentionality, and gives you crystal-clear focus. Clarity is jet fuel for your goals. 2. Reflection builds confidence by celebrating wins. Most people forget how far they've come. Reflection forces you to capture the GOOD, celebrate the wins, and remember this truth: YOU are capable, resilient, and stronger than you think. 3. Reflection turns challenges into wisdom. Challenges don't break you — they SHAPE you. When you write them down, pain turns into purpose and lessons become leverage for the future. 4. Reflection reduces stress and anxiety. Writing is therapeutic. When thoughts stay in your head, they create pressure. When they hit paper, they create perspective. Lighten the load. Breathe. Release. 5. Reflection realigns you with purpose and values. Reflection reconnects you to what matters most — faith, family, mission, calling. It's a recalibration of your internal GPS. 10 POWERFUL QUESTIONS TO REFLECT ON IN 2025: Take time with these. Don't rush them. Write them out. 1. What were your TOP 5 wins or highlights of 2025? 2. What were your biggest challenges — and what did they teach you? 3. In what ways did you grow the most this year? 4. What did you START in 2025 that you want to AMPLIFY in 2026? 5. What did you tolerate in 2025 that you will NO LONGER tolerate in 2026? 6. What relationships mattered most — and how can you be more intentional with them? 7. What habits FUELED you? What habits DRAINED you? 8. What are you most PROUD of in 2025? 9. Where did you feel the presence of God the most this year? 10. If 2025 were a chapter in the book of your life, what would the TITLE be? These questions are where breakthroughs happen. Not only do I share many of my answers, I ask you to answer them as well. When you start with reflection, your goals become more meaningful, your vision becomes clearer, and your drive becomes PURER. ACTION STEPS: Please Block out 30–60 minutes this week, find a quiet space, grab your journal or Annual Strategic Plan, and start writing. Breathe. Reflect. Don't overthink it. When you take time to pause and look back, you extract the wisdom of 2025 and create a powerful launchpad for what's next.
