This episode is a raw, behind-the-scenes look at a live call inside the Mindset & Alignment Collective—and it's about something so many women are still carrying without realizing it. Over-explaining.Softening your truth.Apologizing for your needs, your voice, your success, your evolution. On this live call, we talk about:Why apologizing has become a survival pattern for so many womenHow self-abandonment disguises itself as being “nice” or “understanding”What actually shifts when you stop shrinking and start standing rooted in who you areHow alignment begins the moment you stop asking for permissionThis isn't about becoming louder or harder.It's about becoming cleaner.Clearer.More grounded in your truth.✨ If this conversation hits home and you're ready to stop doing this work alone, you're invited inside.

Hello, hello — and welcome back to Greedy Bitch, the podcast for groomers who are done apologizing for wanting more. I'm your host, River Lee — founder of The Savvy Groomer. And today's episode is a direct follow-up to our last conversation about falling in love with your clients — and stopping yourself from building a business around fling clients. Because once you start asking: “Who am I actually in relationship with in my business?” The next question becomes: “How am I communicating with them?” And that's where policies come in. Because whether you realize it or not — your policies are a love language. They tell clients: What you value What you tolerate What they can expect And how safe your business actually is And if your policies are unclear, inconsistent, or constantly bent… You're sending mixed signals. And mixed signals? They don't attract soulmate clients. They attract confusion, entitlement, and burnout. Especially as we head straight into shavedown season. Let's start with why policies feel so hard for groomers. Most groomers don't hate policies because they're unnecessary. They hate them because policies feel: Mean Awkward Confrontational Or like you're “being difficult” We were taught to be accommodating. To be kind. To be understanding. And somewhere along the way, “professional” got confused with “people-pleasing.” So instead of policies feeling like support, they start to feel like punishment. But here's the truth: Avoiding policies doesn't make you kind. It makes your business confusing. And confused clients don't feel safe. They feel entitled. Because when expectations aren't clear, people fill in the gaps with whatever works best for them. That's not a client problem. That's a communication problem. And it always shows up when you're already tired. Let's talk about mixed signals — because this is where most businesses quietly train the wrong behavior. Mixed signals look like: Policies that exist… but aren't enforced “Case-by-case” exceptions that happen constantly Apologizing when you enforce your own boundaries Saying “this is our policy” and then immediately bending it That's the equivalent of saying: “I have standards… but not really.” And clients respond accordingly. Here's the thing I want you to hear very clearly: You don't attract fling clients — you train them. If clients learn that: Pickup times are flexible Fees are negotiable Boundaries depend on your mood Policies only apply sometimes They will test every edge. Not because they're bad people — but because inconsistency teaches people to push. If your policies are flexible, your clients will be too. And this gets especially dangerous during shavedown season. Because when stress is high, you're enforcing boundaries reactively instead of proactively. That's when resentment builds. That's when burnout accelerates. Here's the reframe that changes everything: Soulmate clients don't want flexibility — they want clarity. They want to know: How your business works What to expect What the rules are And that those rules won't change randomly Structure feels safe to aligned clients. Professionalism feels calming. Predictability builds trust. High-quality clients expect: Clear policies Clear communication Clear systems They don't want to negotiate. They don't want exceptions. They don't want chaos. They want to drop their dog off and trust that everything is handled. Boundaries don't push soulmate clients away. They invite them in. And every time you enforce a policy without apology, you're sending a very clear message: “This business is stable.” “This business is predictable.” “This business respects itself.” And people who respect that? Stick around. This is the part that doesn't get talked about enough. Policies aren't just for clients. They're for you. Every time you: Over-explain Soften your language Add disclaimers Say “I'm so sorry, but…” You're teaching yourself that your needs come second. And over time, that turns into resentment. Not because clients are awful — but because you're constantly negotiating with yourself. Policies protect: Your time Your energy Your emotional bandwidth Your sustainability They remove decision fatigue. They remove constant justification. They remove the need to explain yourself every single day. Policies are not about control. They're about self-respect. And a business built on self-respect feels very different to work in. One of the biggest red flags I see in grooming businesses is over-editing. Softening language. Adding disclaimers. Trying to make everything sound nicer. Secure relationships don't require constant reassurance. Clear expectations reduce conflict. They don't create it. You don't need to convince the right clients. You just need to communicate clearly. And the clients who bristle at that? They were never your soulmate clients anyway. Clarity is not cruelty. Boundaries are not rejection. They are information. If this episode made you realize how much energy you're spending managing clients instead of grooming — that awareness matters. Because shavedown season doesn't create chaos. It reveals weak systems. And the best time to fix that? Is before you're overwhelmed. That's why I created the Business Workshop Library. Inside the library, you'll find practical, system-focused workshops like: Onboarding Clients & Dealing With Difficult Clients Take Control & Organize Your Business Run Your Business on Autopilot These workshops are designed to help you: Clarify expectations Strengthen communication Reduce emotional labor And stop relying on memory and goodwill to run your business ✨ The Business Workshop Library is $200 for the year ✨ Or $50 a month And if you're looking for ongoing support while you actually implement these policies, that's exactly what the Savvy Groomer Circle is for. Inside the Circle, you get continued education, monthly Q&As, real-time conversations, and support as you build, enforce, and refine your policies — especially during high-stress seasons like shavedown season. And for groomers who want deeper access and more personalized support, the Inner Circle gives you that next level — including direct access to me so you're not navigating these decisions alone. You can learn more or join the Savvy Groomer Circle or Inner Circle — at savvygroomer.com/membership If you want to head into shavedown season with clarity instead of chaos, You can find the Business Workshop Library at savvygroomer.com/gwg As always — stay savvy, stay greedy, and never apologize for wanting more.

402-521-3080In this engaging conversation, Stephanie Olson, Dr. Jen Fry, and Rebecca Saunders explore the critical themes of resilience and relationships, focusing on the importance of conflict, healthy communication, and setting boundaries. They discuss how to navigate difficult conversations, the role of apologies, and the necessity of teaching children about consent and self-advocacy. The discussion emphasizes that healthy conflict is essential for strong relationships and that individuals must be willing to engage in hard conversations to foster growth and understanding.TakeawaysConflict is not inherently negative; it's how we handle it that matters.Healthy conflict can strengthen relationships and build trust.Setting boundaries is crucial for personal well-being and healthy interactions.Teaching kids about consent and self-advocacy is essential.Apologizing can be a powerful tool for healing relationships.There is no time limit on a genuine apology.Navigating conflict requires emotional regulation and understanding.People often avoid conflict due to fear of negative outcomes.The absence of conflict does not equate to harmony in relationships.Relationships are worth the effort of engaging in difficult conversations.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Resilience and Relationships00:54 The Journey of Dr. Jen Fry02:25 Understanding Conflict as a Tool for Growth04:59 Navigating Difficult Conversations08:46 Setting Boundaries in Relationships11:57 Healthy Conflict: A Path to Better Communication15:15 The Power of Apology in Parenting16:47 Teaching Consent and Healthy Conflict17:40 Navigating Online Conflict and Apologies20:13 Self-Advocacy and Emotional Regulation in Kids23:48 The Timelessness of Apologies26:05 The Importance of Healthy Conflict in Relationships29:43 R&R Outro.mp4Dr. Jen Fry is a Sports Geographer, speaker, and founder of JenFryTalks, where she helps teams navigate conflict and culture.

For this week's episode, we're going to skip the typical Talkhouse format and give you something that I think you're going to love just as much, about a band called The Fiery Furnaces. I bet a lot of you remember, but if you don't, The Fiery Furnaces are siblings, Matthew and Eleanor Friedberger from Oak Park, Illinois, not far from Chicago. Together they put out seven of the scrambliest, catchiest rock albums of the 2000s, and then they kind of disappeared. We got contacted by a longtime radio journalist and producer of the show Snap Judgment, John Fecile, who wanted to talk to Matt and Eleanor. It turns out he had spoken to them over a decade ago, and as he'll explain, there was a very specific reason he wanted to talk to them again.

Will he be forgiven?

This episode is brought to you by LMNT, Audible and Strong Coffee Company. You've probably heard of the trauma responses fight, flight, and freeze — but there's a fourth response that may be shaping your life without you even realizing it: fawning. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Ingrid Clayton, PhD a clinical psychologist, trauma therapist, and author of Fawning, to understand why people-pleasing, over-accommodating, and self-abandonment are not personality flaws — they're intelligent survival responses your nervous system learned to keep you safe. You'll learn how fawning develops when fight, flight, or freeze aren't available — especially in childhood, unequal power dynamics, toxic relationships, and work environments where your safety or stability feels at risk. You'll also discover how living in a chronic fawn response can quietly disconnect you from your needs, your voice, your body, and your sense of self. This conversation helps you recognize why "just setting boundaries" often feels impossible, why you may disappear in relationships, and why choosing yourself can feel terrifying even when you know something needs to change. Most importantly, you'll hear why none of this means something is wrong with you — you make sense. If you've been stuck in survival mode, waiting for permission, approval, or safety outside yourself, this episode will help you understand what's been happening beneath the surface — and how you can begin moving forward by reconnecting with who you truly are.

In this bonus episode of the Rich Woman Reset series, Karen Yankovich explores the identity shift that transforms wealth from an idea into a lived experience. This episode is about more than mindset. It is about embodiment. If you have ever felt yourself shrinking, softening your edges, or downplaying your success to stay comfortable or likable, this conversation will resonate deeply. Karen shares why wealth is a nervous system experience and how your identity determines how much visibility, income, and opportunity you can receive.   Wealth Begins with Identity Many women were taught to associate wealth with fear, judgment, or being "too much." Over time, these beliefs become embodied patterns. You cannot expand into greater wealth while holding a contracted identity. Karen explains how your nervous system must feel safe with visibility, power, and higher prices before wealth can truly land. This work is not about forcing confidence. It is about expanding your capacity to receive.   The Three Identities of a Rich Woman In this episode, Karen introduces three core identities that every wealthy woman embodies. These qualities already live inside you. The work is waking them up. She Is Visible She allows herself to be seen. Visibility is not a performance. It is her natural state. She Is Valued She knows her worth and charges accordingly. Her boundaries are loving, clear, and firm. She Is Vocal She uses her voice and shares her perspective, even when it feels uncomfortable or disruptive.   How Rich Women Move Through Daily Life This identity shift shows up in small, powerful ways every day. Rich women: Respond instead of reacting Say no without guilt Receive compliments without deflection State their prices without shrinking Speak from truth, not fear Lead with calm authority instead of urgency This energy is steady, grounded, and sovereign.   A Guided Embodiment Moment Toward the end of the episode, Karen guides you through a brief visualization to help you step into this identity now. You are invited to imagine how you move, speak, set boundaries, and trust yourself as the rich woman you are becoming. Your next level is not something you chase. It is something you embody.   In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why wealth is a nervous system experience How identity impacts visibility and income The three identities of a rich woman How to stop shrinking and overexplaining What calm, grounded authority looks like How to embody wealth starting today   Resources Mentioned In The Episode: Learn more about The Visibility Salon: https://visibilitysalon.com Catch the full Rich Woman Reset playlist: https://karenyankovich.com/richwomanreset Check out The Glow Up Audio Experience: https://www.KarenYankovich.com/glowup    Help Us Spread The Word!

Valenti and Rico can't understand why Amon-Ra apologized for doing the Trump dance against the Commanders last Sunday.

Tammy J. Bond fires up the microphone for women leaders, challenging the pervasive habit of over-apologizing in professional settings. She argues that frequently defaulting to phrases like "I'm sorry, but..." or "This might not be the right time, but..." causes your apologies to show up louder than your actual leadership, draining your credibility and inviting doubt. This episode confronts the conditioning that leads women to wait to be invited instead of owning the room and provides a power move to replace apologies with confident, conscious confrontation. Key Leadership Insights: The Apology Drain: Unnecessary apologies soften your voice and teach the room to doubt you, reducing your credibility right before your "mic drop moment." The Real Reason Women Apologize More: Studies show both men and women apologize about 81% of the time when they agree something is an offense. However, women judge more situations as apology-worthy because of their heightened emotional awareness and ability to read the room. Apologizing is a sign of noticing, not a sign of weakness. The Cost of Over-Apologizing: You are donating your credibility and putting doubt in place of confidence with your team. The Power Move: Leadership presence means stepping in, being willing to confront—consciously, contagiously, and confidently—without apology. Owning the Room: Men walk in and own the room; women often sit back and wait to be invited. It's time to own your voice and your space. Your Actionable Power Move: Stop apologizing for being direct, confident, bold, or clear. Save your "sorry's" for real harm you've caused. Replace the Apology: Instead of starting with "I'm sorry, but..." or "I know we're almost out of time, but...," reframe your statement to be clear and convicted. Old: "I'm sorry to interrupt, but I have a question about the budget." New: "Hold a minute. I want to bring up something about the budget before we run out of time." Acknowledge, Don't Apologize (for stepping on toes): If you suspect you were overly direct, acknowledge the potential impact, but do not apologize for your assertiveness. Statement: "I acknowledge that was very bold. Let's talk about how you feel about that." Goal: You thank them for bringing it to your attention and ask how to make it different next time, ensuring you are not apologizing for being bold. Leadership Challenge: Ladies, stop apologizing. Start leading with conviction, confidence, clarity, and connection to the purpose of your conversation. Who are you not to?

Praise in Public, Criticize in Private Leadership Lessons with Martha Lawrence Episode 278 ( Martha is based in San Diego, CA) In this conversation with Martha Lawrence, we explore: how the culture of positivity shaped Ken Blanchard's leadership philosophy why The One Minute Manager changed how organizations lead and communicate how to apply “catch people doing things right” both at work and at home the fine line between genuine praise and shallow flattery what “servant leadership” really means in practice how leaders can help team members by asking better questions how Martha Lawrence turned trauma into meaningful creative work why apologizing and letting go of ego strengthen leadership how Ken Blanchard modeled love and humility in leadership how positivity and purpose can transform organizations and lives ----- About our guest Martha Lawrence: She's a vertern book editor who has edited hundreds of book including major bestsellers - Feel the Fear and Do it Anyways and The One Minute Enrepreneur. As the executive editor at Blanchard, she worked with business guru, Ken Blanchard for over two decades. Learn more about Martha and her new book at https://marthalawrence.com/ Books by Ken Blanchard https://www.kenblanchardbooks.com/ Wow! More resources from Ken Blanchard https://www.blanchard.com/ ----- Key Lessons from this conversation with Martha Lawerence: Positive leadership is rooted in valuing people as much as results. The One Minute Manager principles — clear goals, one-minute praising, and one-minute redirects — remain timeless leadership tools. Catching people doing things right is more effective than focusing on mistakes. Praise in public, criticize in private — simple rule, powerful impact. Servant leadership means inverting the hierarchy: leaders serve their teams. Leadership is learned behavior; empathy and humility can be practiced. The best leaders help others grow by asking, “How can I help you do your job better?” Adversity can become the catalyst for purpose and contribution. Apologizing well is a leadership strength, not a weakness. Real leaders let go of ego — as Ken Blanchard says, ego means “edging good out.” ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by honing your communication skills.

Are you constantly saying "sorry" for the smallest thing? Smoothing over tensions? Fixing everyone else's problems while your own leadership presence suffers? You're not alone - and it's costing you more than you think.In this game-changing episode, powerhouse coach Kelly Travis reveals the hidden toll of over-apologizing and people-pleasing among high-achieving professionals. Discover how internalized roles like "the fixer," "the good girl," and "the perfectionist" are unconsciously driving your leadership decisions and holding you back from your true potential.

Because every one of us has been raised with the good girl rules—to be nice, agreeable, and never rock the boat—almost every woman I work with has the habit of over-apologizing. You're capable, you're accomplished, and you work hard, yet “sorry” slips out at the beginning of every sentence. In this episode, we explore how over-apologizing hurts you and how to practice a different way of showing up. Here's what I cover:How over-apologizing lowers your authority in other people's eyes and trains your own brain to see yourself as less valuableWhy it's important to consider what you're trying to accomplish with your apologyWhy pausing before you speak is the foundation for breaking your over-apologizing habitThe power you'll reclaim when you replace “I'm sorry” with “thank you”Why increasing your capacity for discomfort is key to stopping over-apologizingA practical homework assignment to complete your own apology auditFind Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

NBC FINDS OUT after APOLOGIZING to TRANS KILLER over PRONOUNS! FAFO!

This is a fan fav episode. For the highly motivated driven woman reading this, we've got one question for you. What are you chasing after? When you show up in your career or your business, are you getting the respect you want or is everyday the battle for your boundaries and peace of mind? Angie Martinez, Radio Hall of Famer, The Voice of New York, Radio Hip Hop Legend, has earned the respect of some of the biggest names in hip hop like Jay-Z and TuPac. Angie went from a young girl with zero experience interning at Hot 97 in New York to being synonymous with hip hop culture and generating value beyond anything she ever imagined. She's definitely of the Hustle Hard mentality and like many of us she's had to learn how to speak up and hold her ground in a culture that can be totally intimidating. Angie's path to becoming the legend that she is was rough, not clearly defined and something we all can relate to. How do you crawl through a mile of crap and become resilient as heck on the other side of it all? You pick yourself up, decide the story you're going to tell yourself, and learn that there needs to be harmony between what you're chasing and being content where you are right now.

If you've ever had sex you didn't really want to have— to avoid awkwardness, not hurt your partner's feelings or just get it over with—this episode is for you. We're joined by Claire Perelman, a Queer, Jewish, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist based in the Bay Area who specializes in working with queer, poly, and kink communities. Claire breaks down what it really means to “push through” during sex, why so many of us do it (even when we know we don't want to), and how to start honoring your boundaries without guilt, shutdown, or shame. We cover: What “pushing through” actually means and why it's so common. We define what it looks like to override your body's signals during sex and why so many women and femmes have been conditioned to tolerate discomfort in the name of connection. How to stop saying yes when your body is screaming no. Claire offers practical tools for tuning into your physical cues, catching freeze responses, and recognizing when you're dissociating mid-sex. Why “not wanting sex” isn't a problem to fix. Spoiler: Your desire isn't broken. We explore how shame, performance pressure, and people-pleasing distort our understanding of healthy sexual agency. How to say no without apologizing or over-explaining. From scripts to mindset shifts, Claire gives you real-life ways to assert your boundaries without guilt. The nervous system's role in sexual shutdown. We talk about what happens biologically when you freeze or dissociate and how to gently regulate your nervous system so you can feel safe again. When sex feels painful or uncomfortable (and you just go with it anyway). Claire gets real about the internalized messages that normalize discomfort and how to unlearn them especially if you've ever endured pain just to avoid awkwardness. How to rebuild intimacy after breaking your own boundaries. If you've pushed through in the past, you're not alone. Claire walks us through how to reconnect with yourself and rebuild trust in your own “no.” Why pleasure requires choice—not obligation. True intimacy comes from wanting to be there. We unpack how to create space for real, enthusiastic consent in your sex life.
