Podcasts about outgrowing

Every one of us carries innate spiritual gifts - intuition, healing abilities, multidimensional awareness, the capacity to sense what lies beyond the veil. But too often, without realizing it, we get in our own way and engage in habits or patterns that block the full expression of these gifts.  In this episode of INNER WORK, we explore five common (and often unconscious) habits that delay spiritual awakening and keep you from fully activating and living from your gifts... plus how to recognize each one with compassion, not judgment. This is a deep, honest look at the inner and outer obstacles that we often run into as humans on the spiritual path. There's no toxic shame or self-blaming here, just an open invitation to expand your awareness of these old patterns, release what doesn't serve, and reclaim your full, authentic power.  In this episode, we cover: Impatience & self-doubt — how fear-based doubt about your gifts (and your healing journey) can quietly sabotage your progress, and why meeting self-doubt with clarity — rather than believing it — is essential Slipping into unconsciousness or ego mind — the old coping mechanisms (overworking, people-pleasing, numbing out) that pull you out of presence, and how ego convinces you that you or your gifts "aren't enough" Spiritual bypassing — using spiritual tools, places, or practices to escape reality rather than integrating it, and why true growth requires grounding your spirituality in everyday human life Outgrowing or mismatching your support systems — how to discern when therapists, healers, or other guides are (or aren't) equipped to support you through a genuine spiritual awakening Energetic discernment — why being selective about who and what you allow into your inner circle and energy field directly impacts your ability to stay aligned and let your gifts flow Whether you're just beginning to awaken to your gifts or you're deepening your existing spiritual connection, this episode offers grounded, compassionate guidance for recognizing what's been holding you back... and reclaiming your full spiritual expression.

Ever feel like you're doing everything "right" — showing up, being kind, respecting her — but only getting crumbs?First dates that never turn into second dates. A marriage where you've quietly become roommates; no matter what you do, there's no sex, and there's not even very much affection. That feeling of putting in a ton of effort and still spinning your wheels.If any of that lands, you're likely living out some version of Nice Guy Syndrome.Outgrowing being a Nice Guy doesn't mean becoming a jerk. It does mean that you learn some skills or make some shifts you've maybe never even thought of before.Here, Jason and I break down the 3 specific things that support men in graduating from being a Nice Guy — the ones that take them from stuck to, "Wait, this actually works now?"—Come to the Retreat!Join us live in Boonville, CA (near Napa) in early September.

After eleven years, we admitted the business we had on paper wasn't the business we had actually built. This episode is what outgrowing your own business actually looks like, from the inside. We rebranded Kickstart Accounting into three divisions, Kickstart Bookkeeping, Nvision CFO, and KSA Tax Partners, and in this episode I explain why, starting with the one thing I want to clear up immediately: we did not sell the business. Our VP of Operations Victoria joins me to talk through how we knew it was time to rebrand, the three financial phases every business owner moves through on the way to building real value, and why bookkeeping still has to be the foundation of every other financial decision. We also get into what a done-with-you model looks like compared to done-for-you, and why building something that can survive without you matters more than staying profitable alone. In this episode of CEO Numbers Network, Victoria and I walk through the real story behind our rebrand and what building a valuable business actually requires. You will learn the three financial phases every business owner moves through and why bookkeeping still has to be the foundation before you can build real value. If you have ever felt like your business outgrew the brand you built it under, this episode will show you what it actually takes to build something that can run without you.

In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary Lipovetsky sits down with John Garvin, a former corporate executive and creator who completely reinvented his life at 50 and built an audience of more than 70,000 followers by documenting the transformation. After spending 27 years in corporate America, John walked away from his career, stopped drinking alcohol, lost 30 pounds, moved to Miami, and committed to becoming what he calls the 100% version of himself. He shares how he went from living a comfortable and successful life at 70% of his potential to rebuilding his health, identity, relationships, environment, and purpose. This conversation goes far beyond physical transformation. Gary and John unpack why successful men can still feel overstimulated and underfulfilled, how discipline is built through daily promises, and why men often abandon themselves as the pressures of work, marriage, and family increase. They also discuss male loneliness, outgrowing old friendships, creating a community for men, and turning an authentic personal transformation into a sustainable creator business.

If you've ever built the case for the promotion, the bigger territory, the raise — and then frozen right at the moment you needed to ask — this episode is for you. That freeze isn't a confidence problem. It's inherited wiring, and today we're tracing it back to where it actually came from. ✨ What you'll learn in this episode: ✨ Why your brain reads "different from my family" as dangerous — and why that's biology, not weakness ✨ The real reason growth costs you distance from certain people, and why that's not your fault ✨ What transgenerational epigenetic inheritance actually means for your stress response, in plain English ✨ Why the survival strategies the women before you used aren't the same as thriving strategies ✨ A simple pause-and-ask practice for catching inherited hesitation in real time ✨ Why your growth might be giving permission to the women around you, not betraying them Key takeaway: That inherited hesitation whispering "who do you think you are" right before you advocate for yourself isn't wisdom — it's old tribal wiring plus a pattern you absorbed before you had language for it. You get to ask if it's actually yours. And letting it go doesn't mean leaving anyone behind.

You cannot scale forever as the only strategic brain in the business. At some point, you need leaders who can execute without you. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down how to outgrow the solopreneur trap and build an executive team that actually drives the company forward. Let's be real… If every decision still runs through you… If every department waits for your approval… If your team only completes tasks but never owns outcomes… You are not building a scalable company. You are building a bottleneck. In this episode, you'll learn: Why administrative help alone cannot scale a massive business How high-level executives raise the ceiling of your company Why leaders need territory, not just tasks How autonomy, KPIs, and trust create a self-sustaining organization The truth is simple: You cannot be the smartest person in the room forever. If you want a bigger company… You need bigger talent. People who can think. Lead. Solve. Build. And make decisions without needing constant supervision. High-level CEOs do not just delegate tasks. They delegate authority. They hire heavy hitters. They hand over ownership. They set the targets. And they get out of the way. Because when you build the right executives… They build the rest of the company. Hire the giants. Give them the keys. Lead from the top. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

There comes a point in all of our lives where we realise we've outgrown who we used to be. Sometimes it happens all at once, due to a breakup, a move, a loss, or a major life change. Other times (most of the time), it's much quieter. As painful as that can feel, it's also one of the clearest signs that you're evolving. In this episode, we explore the psychology of outgrowing your old life, why change can feel so much like grief, and how to let go of the past without fearing the future. We explore: The psychology of liminality and the space between who you were and who you're becoming The seven stages of outgrowing your old life Why we cling to the past through nostalgia, the endowment effect and status quo bias When you know a chapter is over How to embrace change and build a future you're excited to grow into Happy listening!

This conversation goes far beyond hair.

Most shop owners who hit 50 employees, steady profit, and a fourth generation coming up behind them would be tempted to coast. Andrew Borg decided to double down instead. Not because he has to, he's quick to say the shop is profitable right where it is, but because he wants to build something that outlasts him.  A big part of that answer is automation. Borg Design runs a fleet of cobots that load parts and pallets around the clock, and Andrew's goal is to double sales while only growing headcount by about half. We get into how they keep machines running 80 to 95 percent of the time over a seven day week, why the hard part isn't building the system but figuring out what it does when a tool breaks at midnight, and how six full-time mechanical engineers fit inside a machine shop. We also dig into CMMC. Borg Design earned its Level 2 certification this year, and Andrew is refreshingly honest about the cost, the false starts with vendors, and the one employee who basically read the entire standard and wrote their package. He shares why the inbound calls from primes only started showing up after they were certified, and the sub-tier problem that still keeps him up at night. Then there's the people question—which might be the most useful part of the whole conversation. Andrew has stopped trying to hire high-end machinists, because in his words they don't exist on the open market. Instead he hires for work ethic and values and builds machinists over years. If you're wrestling with the same thing, you'll want to hear how he thinks about the path from operator to programmer. This is the kind of conversation that's the whole reason I do this show. A smart, transparent owner sharing exactly how he built something real, and where he's still figuring it out. Grab a notepad. You'll fill a page.

Happy Mindful Monday! Have you ever found yourself completely exhausted from trying to force life back into an opportunity, a relationship, a timeline, or a version of a dream that you know deep down you've outgrown? In this episode, we are pulling a major millennial throwback and leveraging the ultimate wisdom of Hilary Duff's iconic track, "So Yesterday," to unpack a massive subconscious pattern. As high-achieving women, we are wired to complete tasks and hit goals. But sometimes, our greatest limitation is our inability to quit things that no longer serve us because we confuse "walking away" with "failing." We're diving deep into the psychology of letting go, learning how to differentiate between giving up and strategically outgrowing a chapter, and tapping into that potent, fresh-start energy. If you are standing at a crossroads, terrified of leaving behind what's comfortable even though your gut is screaming that it's time to fly away, this episode is your official permission slip to clear the space. Grab your tea or your matcha, find a cozy spot, and let's dive in!

There's a kind of feeling…that doesn't come from something happening.There's no clear event.No obvious loss.No moment you can point to and say—“That's when everything changed.”

There is a specific kind of loneliness that comes with identity evolution. Not the loneliness of being excluded. It's the loneliness of being included but not fully known. Respected but not fully revealed. Invited into the room, but only as the version of yourself that the room already recognizes. A lot of high achievers are living inside that gap right now, convinced they just need a better strategy or a clearer message. What they're actually experiencing is the distance between where they are and where they belong. In this episode, Lisa McGuire unpacks how the fear of not belonging quietly shapes our relationships, leadership, visibility, and business decisions, and why it hits hardest during identity evolution. She explores the difference between acceptance and resonance, names the real grief of outgrowing old belonging structures, and offers something more useful than a framework: a mirror for where you may still be choosing conditional inclusion over truth. This conversation is for anyone who has ever softened a sentence before it left their mouth, stayed in a room long past when it fit, or called self-abandonment "professionalism." Because the group that requires your self-abandonment is not giving you belonging. It's giving you conditional access. KEY TAKEAWAYS The fear of not belonging rarely announces itself. It sounds like "I should probably soften that" or "I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable" or "This probably isn't the room for that part of me." Lisa names those disguises and what's actually underneath them. Self-abandonment doesn't always begin as weakness. For most high achievers, it begins as strategy — and it worked, until it didn't. Outgrowing belonging structures brings real grief. Not because the room was bad or the people were wrong, but because even when a space no longer fits, it may still represent safety, history, and approval. Acceptance and resonance are not the same thing. Acceptance says: "You can stay if you keep fitting." Resonance says: "You belong here because we recognize who you are." Many high achievers have spent years inside the first, believing it was the second. Your personal brand cannot become unmistakable while you're still adapting yourself to every room. Category of ONLY isn't a marketing concept. It's an identity concept. Visibility is not always a marketing problem. Sometimes it's an identity safety problem. Small acts of self-loyalty are how identity stabilizes — not in one sweeping moment of reinvention, but in repeated decisions not to abandon yourself.

And it changed everything.If you're a woman in your 30s who feels stuck in a life that looks good on paper but feels hollow on the inside...if you're burned out, restless, secretly Googling cities in Europe at midnight, or just quietly whispering there has to be more than this...this episode is for you.We talk about:The moment you know you're living the wrong life and what to do with that knowingWhy a life that looks fine on the outside can feel suffocating on the insideThe exhaustion that has nothing to do with being tiredWhat it really means to leave everything and start over abroadThe questions that will help you hear what your restlessness is trying to tell youThis is not a travel podcast.

In this Q&A episode, Gina Zapanta answers some of the most commonly submitted questions from her audience — and she does not hold back.This episode covers what most people are afraid to say out loud: that the people calling you selfish are often the ones who benefited most from your silence. That the family conditioning most of us grew up with was designed to keep us small. And that the guilt you feel when you finally start choosing yourself is not a sign you are doing something wrong.Gina breaks down how to recognize when a relationship is worth fighting for versus when your body is already telling you to leave. She talks about what it actually looks like to outgrow a friend group, why the word "trying" is quietly undermining your progress, and how to stop building your life around keeping everyone else comfortable.Topics covered in this episode include setting boundaries with family, dealing with criticism when you stop overextending yourself, knowing when to walk away from a relationship, outgrowing friendships, figuring out what you actually want, and how to move forward when you are the first in your family to do something different.This episode is for the woman who is tired of shrinking, tired of explaining herself, and ready to stop making decisions out of guilt.Subscribe for new episodes every week and follow Empowered With Gina on Instagram for more.

After nearly a year away from my microphone, I'm back — and this time, everything looks a little different. Welcome to The Homebody Collective, the rebrand and evolution of Homebody- The Podcast. In this relaunch episode, I'm sharing the story behind the pivot: why I outgrew my own brand, what it really means to build before you're ready, and why I'm no longer interested in fitting myself into spaces built for an earlier version of who I was. I'm also opening up about the year I've been having: welcoming our son Archer Hayes in October 2025, navigating postpartum recovery, my husband Alex joining the business full time, running Dweller: Staging & Design LLC through one of our busiest seasons yet, the book I wrote but have not released, and a home renovation that's been equal parts dream and chaos. This episode is an open door — an honest, grounded introduction to what this podcast is, who it's for, and what's coming next. What to expect going forward on The Homebody Collective: real conversations with real estate professionals, women entrepreneurs, and business owners across South Central Pennsylvania. Less highlight reel. More messy middle. Stories about staging, design, motherhood, gender roles in business, and building a life that actually fits who you're becoming. If you've ever felt like you were evolving faster than the containers built for an earlier version of yourself — you're in the right place.

What if we're not actually afraid of our power? Rather, what if we're afraid of the perception of what standing in our power might cost us?In this episode, I explore a pattern I've observed in myself,practitioners & mentors across the Spiritual & energy work space over a decade.Because perhaps the fear was never visibility.Or judgmentOr authorityOr even power itself.. as we have most often learned to relate to it. Perhaps the deeper fear is being misunderstood.Losing belonging.Outgrowing communities.Being seen without the ability to control what others can make that mean.This is a conversation about personal power, spiritualauthority, permission culture, authenticity, and the hidden stories many heart-led practitioners carry about leadership, service, humility, and influence.Not from the perspective of fixing yourself.But from the perspective of questioning whether we've beentrying to solve the wrong “problem” all along.If you've ever felt caught between staying safe and becomingmore fully yourself, this episode is for you.Because spirit-led power may have far less to do withbecoming someone new and far more to do with simply accepting who you've always been. Perspective shifts from today's conversationPower is not domination. Visibility is not the same as safety. Being misunderstood is not the same as being wrong. Humility is not self-erasure. Authority is not something granted by others.The Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/No cost weekly round up to your inbox: https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732You'll find me most @reikiredefined on Titkok.

Loyalty matters. But it cannot outrank competence. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down one of the hardest parts of scaling a company: outgrowing the people who helped you start. Let's be real… The person who was perfect for day one… Might not be the right person for year five. And if you keep someone in a critical seat just because they were loyal early on… You are not protecting them. You are hurting the company. In this episode, you'll learn: Why startup talent and scaling talent are not always the same How keeping someone in the wrong role slows down the entire business Why loyalty should be honored, but not at the cost of the mission How to have the hard conversation and restructure with integrity The truth is simple: Past loyalty does not always equal future capacity. That does not mean someone is bad. It means the company has evolved. The role has changed. The pressure has increased. And the standard has risen. Real leadership means separating the person from the position. Sometimes that means moving someone into a better-fitting role. Sometimes that means bringing in a more experienced operator. And sometimes that means making a decision that hurts now… So the business can survive later. You cannot sacrifice the future of the company to protect the comfort of the past. Honor the loyalty. Protect the mission. Put the right people in the right seats. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

We get a new interest, and then we kind of go into that thing, and then we learn something, and then we grow into that, and then all of a sudden we don't necessarily need some of the things that we had, whether they're coping mechanisms or jobs or relationships. We can outgrow ourselves in so many different ways, and I think we always will.Lesley Logan 0:22  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 1:04  Hello, Be It babe. How are you? Okay, we're back with part two. So, if you're new to the Be It Pod, we have some weeks where we do an interview and a recap episode, and we have some weeks where we do a series and we talk about a topic that you guys have written in and said, "I want to have more information," or "I want to hear more about this," or "This is how I'm feeling. What do you think?" And so hopefully the personal stories and experiences and anecdotes help you feel not so alone in the topic, right? Lesley Logan 1:31  So we're talking about outgrowing yourself, a version of yourself, and so if you haven't listened to the first episode, I would do that because I actually want to reference some stories from that, and I'm not going to tell them again in such great detail. So, anyways, let's get into it. Right? Here we go. So okay, last episode we talked about outgrowing old versions of yourselves, and I highlighted, with grace and compassion, not the shame and blame, because it can be really easy to do that. Lesley Logan 1:57  And so, this week we're actually going to talk about the actual action of letting go, and then the action steps of being in your new version, right? So the stories that I brought up were inspired because I actually was looking at old photos of myself starting as a Pilates instructor, and then I shared these two instances of when I outgrew the retail version of me to be the Pilates instructor, and then I outgrew being the Pilates studio manager, teacher, trainer, all the things, to just working myself as a Pilates business coach and Pilates instructor. And I really will say there wasn't this green sign, green light, like, "Hello, Lesley, this is the door," right? No, I kind of realized I outgrew those roles and that version of me kind of kicking and screaming, getting so frustrated and exhausted because I had taken on so much trying to start this new thing that I was into, as opposed to a hobby, and now it's a full-time job, but I also have a full-time job, and then, wow, now I can take on Pilates full time, and this job has health insurance and a salary, and room to grow and expand, and I learned so much there, and I was challenged, and I got to be a big fish in a small pond, up to the day that I was about to have a panic attack because I was overworking myself trying to fulfill the agreements that I had made as an employee while trying to explore these new interests I have. And isn't that how versions of ourselves start? We get a new interest, and then we kind of go into that thing, and then we learn something, and then we grow into that, and then all of a sudden we don't necessarily need some of the things that we had, whether they're coping mechanisms or jobs or relationships. We can outgrow ourselves in so many different ways, and I think we always will. Lesley Logan 3:44  Now, I will say, I don't feel very confident that either of the changes that I made I did gracefully. I look back and see maybe if I know what I know now about how I could land on my own two feet and be as resourceful as I am, if I had that evidence, I could have had the guts to just quit the first time and not try to have one foot on an island and one foot on a canoe, and stand there, and still, and not lose my balance. And I also will say, the second time I outgrew that version of me, I didn't necessarily, I thought I could do it all, and I didn't really want to let go of some of the things because I liked the people I worked with, I liked the people I worked for. There are some things I hated, and that made the job really annoying, but those were detail-oriented things, so of course I didn't like them. But I really thought I could do both for a long time. But what happened along the way in there, and doing both for a long time, is that there was this part of me that was, "I'm really interested in this impact over here, and I can't do it as long as I'm doing this."  Lesley Logan 4:50  And so, I also will say, part of the way that I tend to, I tended, I will say, I'll put it in the past tense, I tended to become this new version of me is I lost touch with some of those relationships. In fact, when I posted that picture, one of the people who commented is one of the people that I lost touch with, probably within the first year of quitting retail, and I really liked her. And I still, every couple of years I'll be in Palm Springs, I'll connect with her because that's where she moved, and so she reminded me that I taught her in her house, in her apartment. Oh my god, this person helped me out, and I kind of lost touch. But because we do that, right, when your schedule changes, because the new version of you needs this schedule, right? The new version of you needs to be doing these things, or studying these things, or spending time in these areas, it means that we tend to lose people in our lives, and it doesn't have to be personal, not personal at all. Lesley Logan 5:48  There was a couple of people I definitely was ready to write off, but the people that I worked with in both of those arenas, the ones I lost touch with, I will say most of the time it just happened because life happens, because we get busy. And back then it wasn't as easy as it is now, but even now we're even busier, right? I can proudly say that I'm still dear friends with several of the people that I worked with at the second place, and in outgrowing the version of myself, they didn't get mad or turn their backs on me. I mean, in fact, they celebrated it because they could say they were part of that. So when you do feel this need to grow, and you're outgrowing what you once were, you have different worries and different schedules, and different relationships get added in. And because of all these different changes that you're making, because it's in alignment with where you want to grow, yeah, you might lose some things, you might lose some people. There's a coffee shop that I used to go to when we lived in LA every single day. I do wonder where those people are now. I hope they're not there anymore, but I do wonder, because you lose touch. Lesley Logan 6:48  And so I just want to say, you don't ever have to apologize for the growth that you're making, for getting to know yourself more, and/or for changing your mind. We definitely should be as graceful as we can when we make our exits, and I can say that I think I did as good a job as I could given the circumstances on those exits, but the today version of me would have made those exits completely differently and might have been able to find a way to stay in touch with a few of the people extra. So I will just say we usually do the best we can with what we have, and when we know better, we do better. And so just have some kindness for yourself because, depending on how many times you've outgrown a version of yourself, it might be the first time you're making these changes and making mistakes and learning new things. And so be thoughtful, right? Be thoughtful of yourself, but not just of others, because I think it's easy to do that. Lesley Logan 7:41  Okay, so when we look back, and hopefully you did if you listened to Tuesday's episode, I asked you to look back and look at the signs that were showing up that you were ready to outgrow and make changes and let go of, right? When we do that, we tend to look back at them as simpler times and like, "Oh, I should have just been happy." I think about when we look at pictures of ourselves when we were five, ten years ago, going, "Oh my god, why didn't I think I looked good? Why did I think I looked heavy, or whatever?" Like, "Oh my god, I look so good there." So we tend to do that with these rose-colored glasses, and I will just say life was not simpler back when that was because that version of you didn't have the skill sets you have today. So when you look back at life and you're like, "Oh my god, I should have just been happy about that," no, you have new skill sets, you have new abilities to handle things. And so, when you look back at that life, it seems like it was simple. It wasn't simple, but you didn't have the tools that you have now. Lesley Logan 8:33  And when you were that person, there were needs and desires that were not being met. That is why you got to where you are today, why you have your "be it till you see it" goals, who you want to become, because the life that you have wasn't satisfying you for some reason, there was something missing that you went searching for, and you grew, and you outgrew. And it doesn't mean that who you were was silly, stupid, wrong, or dumb; it's just an old version. I look back, I'm like, "Wow." I was so anti-transparent, and now I still put sunscreen on, but goodness, a little bit of sun, a little bit of freckle is not a bad thing. But I think of another example of outgrowing a version of yourself, like my first iPhone versus today's iPhone. When the first iPhone came out, we were like, "Oh my god, what an incredible phone. How lucky am I that I could have this phone?" And now, if we were to use that iPhone, like my dad has an old iPhone, and I'm like, "Oh, such shit, so outdated." And we would not, we didn't do that then. You can't do that to yourself. You can't take an old version of yourself and go, "Oh my god, what an idiot," because back in the day, it was pretty unique who you were and what you were doing, and you were this amazing invention and a slice of time that we'll never have back. So we have to be thoughtful and kind, and know that because our standards change, that doesn't mean that who we were before wasn't good enough. They just had different standards, and we know more, we know better, we have new standards, right? We have new needs. Lesley Logan 10:11  Example, when it comes to you outgrowing, okay, so you've outgrown a version of yourself, you're stepping into your new thing, you're being it till you see it, and you're feeling a little exhausted, frustrated, even still getting resentful, like things feel like they're not moving along. We'll get more into stuckness later, but you're trying, you're doing what I was doing in the last episode where I was like, "I'm gonna hold on to this job and do this job." And the reality is, once you start growing into this new version, it's really hard to go back. Once you learn that the Wizard of Oz is just a person behind the curtain and it's not the Wizard, it's kind of hard to put the toothpaste back in the tube, so as they say. So, hope this example works. Brad had this weird thing about he keeps our old iPhones, and then every time we get a new iPhone, he gets rid of our oldest iPhones, but we always have older ones lying around, and sometimes he even uses them. And part of it is he's worried, like, "Oh my gosh, what if I don't have all that I need that's on that phone? What if I forgot something's there?" That was a great phone to me. I really liked how it felt. That's kind of like us trying to hold on to people who no longer fit where we're growing, or schedules, maybe you are trying to do your own thing, but you're holding on to your old life schedules, right? Like when we moved to Vegas, I was trying so hard to do the schedule that I had in LA because I loved that schedule. But not only was I no longer an Angelino, I was a Las Vegan, it was COVID, there was no schedule to keep. I had to change, I had to outgrow that, I had to let it go, right? So I'm not saying you have to get rid of anyone in your life, or the schedule, or the cars, or the clothes when you outgrow yourself, but what I am saying is that to fully step into the new version of yourself, we do have to evaluate what has to change so that I can fully be this person. Is this schedule, the cadence of when I see people in my life, that has to change? Do I need more sleep to be this person? My god, the younger me could just do a lot on no sleep. My goodness. Like, is the life in the version I am right now someone who cannot handle complaining about things from 20 years ago in our life? Lesley Logan 12:34  So I do think, to fully outgrow a version of yourself, besides space and grace and compassion for who you were and who you're becoming, it is important to evaluate what are you taking with you and what are you letting go, and that's the action steps we have to take as we outgrow the version of ourselves. What is no longer serving us? What is taking up space? And, by the way, some of this stuff will just change naturally. When I changed from being in retail to working Pilates, the clothing was pretty easy to change, the job is to wear leg gings, but not all of it is easy; it just takes some time. But the action step you can take is to make sure that the steps you're taking each day are towards the version you want to be, and not the version that you once were, because you're just gonna get frustrated. I mean, it's kind of like I made this example earlier, but I'm gonna say it again because I want you to have a visual. When I was trying to keep the old stuff and the new stuff, it is like having one foot on an island and one foot on a canoe. When we moved to Vegas, we're like, oh, we'll go back to LA every month, every four weeks we'll have our same hairdressers and our same lash technicians and our same blah blah blah, and see our friends. Y'all, we haven't been back in eight months, right? Because while that story felt really good, the version that we were becoming by living here made it really hard to go back there because those people, by the way, it's not that they don't want to see us, it's not that we don't see them, but they were in their version of their lives, and we're coming in every four weeks going, "Hey, hang out with us!" And it's like they're like, "Well, this night doesn't work, I got things to do." So, sometimes I think we are trying to cobble and hold everything together from all parts of our lives, and the truth is, we just have to take a moment to go,okay, hold on. Who do I want to be? What does she do? What does she eat? Where does she go to work? Where is all this different stuff? So that you can step into that power. And then some things will naturally just go away, and some things, some people will step up so they can stay in. Or you might still keep the old car, even though you've changed, because that's practical, right? Not saying go out and buy the new car because that's what she would drive. We have to take some actions in making sure that the life that we want to live is actually in alignment with who we're growing in to be and not who we used to be. Lesley Logan 14:56  It's important you're also not playing the hindsight game. I talked a little about this in the last episode, but I think when I was going back to LA, I would drive around, and I could go, oh, I lived here, and you think about who you were, and the mistakes you made, and that I lived here, and, oh my god, even when I did this, you know more now, so we can't go into hindsight and go, I would have done this better, or I should have done that sooner or I should have quit that sooner or I should have let that relationship end that time. Oh my gosh, I'm going to tell you a story, but first I just want to close that sentence off with any type of judgment like that is shame, and it's not helpful. In fact, when you are judging yourself for who you used to be, it is actually a sign you have to have a gratitude practice, and this is something I worked with my therapist about. As I was evolving into the space that I am now, in 2020 she was like, "If you are judging yourself, that means you are not in gratitude." And so if you get in gratitude, judgment can't be there. Gratitude and judgment can't live in the same space at the same time, can't hold space for both. And so I just would say, if you find yourself getting frustrated or judgmental, take a moment to be like, "I'm grateful that I made this change, I'm grateful that I learned this thing, I'm grateful that I said yes to that thing," because it will help you realize you did the best you could back then with what you knew. Hey, so the story I wanted to share before I got those things out is, I remember, this is a hindsight game, I remember it was one day, a year before I broke up with my ex, I remember driving on the freeway and going, "Oh my god, I wish he would just break up with me because I don't know how to break up with him." And then staying for another year, only to finally have the capacity to blow it all up, and that's really what I did. That version of me had not spent enough time to really fully figure out who she was going to be, but I did that on my summer couch tour. Sometimes you have to do that, right? Sometimes you have to do that. But I remember thinking, "Oh my god, if I had just done this a year ago," and it's like, yeah, that would have been great, and I also would not have had the friends that I had, whose couches I slept on, for sure. Would not have had that. I would not have had the things that happened in that summer that gave me time and space and a schedule that allowed me to really grow into myself, the single version of myself, the woman that I really think, because I did that, is why I'm here today, and it's definitely why I have the friendships that I have and the business that I have, for sure, the things that happened during that time. Lesley Logan 17:28  So I just share that with you because, yes, it would have been nice if you made changes sooner or said yes to things sooner, but also you didn't have those tool sets yet. And so now that you are taking action, having compassion for who you were and gratitude is going to take you a long way, and it's going to make becoming the next version of yourself fun and a little more possible. Look, part of letting go and shifting is where "be it till you see it" works the best. If you are kind of in that in-between, you have the one foot on the island and one foot on the boat, it is time to sit down and just talk about, okay, it's a year from now. Who are you? Where do you live? What do you do? What's your schedule like? When do you get up? When do you go to sleep? When do you have time with your partner? When do you have time with your friends? When do you have time to do this? What are the hobbies that you have? And then you can just dream so big and think, okay, so based on this, how do I work backwards to be this woman? Oh, I'm someone who knows how to knit; I guess I'm going to a knitting class, right? I know I made that really simple, but truly, that is how you become the version of yourself that you want to be. I wanted to be a Pilates business coach and have a studio, and so I would tell people before I left the other gig, and I was still just renting space and doing some coaching, I'll just tell people, "What do you do?" "Oh, I coach Pilates businesses on how to be more profitable and have the impact they want to make, and I teach privates on the side." I started telling people that, even though the majority of my time was teaching Pilates. I would tell people that because, in telling people that, I was telling them who I was growing into, who I wanted to become. And then the hours that I wish I was coaching, I would actually be marketing my coaching services because then I spent time being the person I wanted to be. So when you are in this outgrow stage, growing-in stage, the best thing you can do is dream about like you're on the other side. Who are you? And then work backwards and "be it till you see it" that way. Lesley Logan 19:36  It's also important to remember you don't become someone new overnight; you do become her in moments. And I love looking back at those moments and saying, "Oh, that's when I was like, oh, that moment and that moment and that moment compounded to here we are right now." Those moments often happen before you're even aware that it's time to make a change, but they will keep adding up and adding up. And it's important to keep taking steps, the messy action, and continue to do what you can with what you have. We have a great episode, I think it's episode three, where our guests talked about how you're never going to see the top of the stairs, but you can see the first step, and so you take that first step. And guess what happens when you take the first step? The next step reveals itself. If you listen to the intro of this podcast, right, we talk about it all the time, action brings clarity, it's an antidote to fear. And Be It babe, most of the time we're not stepping into where we want to be; we're keeping the old version of ourselves because we can't see the top of the stairs yet. But you can dream about it, and you can take the messy action, and you can have kindness and gratitude for yourself and others along the way. You do the best you can, and what happens is one day you're the person you want to be, you're the new version of yourself. And look, here's the deal, if you are doing these things but you're stuck, that's going to be our next series. Lesley Logan 21:02  So, if you're feeling stuck, if you've been waiting for motivation, if you feel like you know what you want but you're not doing it, I need you to know it's not because you're lazy. You didn't go into some old version of yourself; things become lazy. It's probably because you're still operating the new version of you on the old system. When we use old computers or old phones, how slow they are, right? The spinning wheel of death comes up. Yeah, that's just because you're trying to do the new you on the old system. So we're gonna dive in deeper to that in our next series, but until then, take messy action, be it till you see it. It's a pretty great thing to shed something that no longer serves you and step into something that does. So, thanks so much, love. I hope this series was fun for you. Let me know what your takeaways are, your favorite parts, or topics you want us to touch on. Share this with a friend who is maybe outgrowing themselves and needs to know that they're not alone, and they didn't do anything wrong, and this is a really great thing.

I grew up in a tumultuous home where appearances mattered, and secrets were kept. I learned early how to look fine on the outside while hiding what was really going on – and that habit followed me straight into my food addiction. In school, I thrived. I was smart, the teacher's pet, and loved gold stars and approval. Inside the classroom, I felt confident and included – even by the cool kids. Outside of it, I was deeply insecure and desperate to belong. From a young age, I could eat enormous portions. Food never shut off for me. By seventeen, I was over 200 pounds, swinging between extremes – exercising to the point of injury, fasting for weeks, or bingeing until I was in physical pain.  When I came into Food Addicts in Recovery Anonymous (FA) eighteen years ago, I did what I knew how to do: I tried to look good – to my sponsor and my fellows. Then came my moment of truth. I was told that if I kept managing my image and hiding how I really felt, I would eat again. I heard the expression, “We're only as sick as our secrets.” That realization changed everything. Today, honesty is the foundation of my recovery in FA. I'm maintaining a weight loss of more than 100 pounds, but what FA gives me goes far beyond neutrality with food. In FA, I have found balance and joy in my personal and professional life, and compassion as the primary caregiver for my aging mother. At sixty-one years old, I no longer seek constant approval or gold stars. Working this program, I am truly free from addictive eating and living a deeply satisfying life.

Send us Fan MailMost companies don't break because growth is happening too slowly. They break because the systems, roles, and leadership habits underneath the growth can't handle the pressure.In this episode, we sit down with Brian Hinton to unpack what actually happens inside companies when scaling starts creating chaos instead of momentum. We talk about the hidden operational cracks that show up first, why unclear accountability quietly kills execution, and how founders can build structures that support growth without slowing the business down.Brian explains why leadership is ultimately an act of service, but also why servant leadership is often misunderstood. Serving your team doesn't mean doing everything for them. It means creating clarity, elevating ownership, communicating the “why” behind decisions, and building systems people can trust when pressure rises.We also break down: Why process is usually the first thing to collapse during rapid growth  The leadership questions Brian asks before rolling out a “great idea”  How quarterly assessments and KPI reviews prevent organizational drift  Why hiring for today instead of tomorrow creates scaling pain later  The difference between delegation and abdication  How psychological safety and accountability can coexist If your company feels messier as it grows, this conversation will help you identify where the breakdown is really happening and what to fix before culture, execution, and trust start slipping at the same time.Support the show

Your business can be making more money… while your nervous system still feels financially stressed underneath it.   Because scaling revenue and creating financial stability are not automatically the same thing.   I see women entrepreneurs increase their income, raise their prices, sign more clients, and still feel pressure around money, avoid looking at numbers, struggle to create savings, or wonder why the business still doesn't feel financially supportive yet.   That's the conversation we're having in this episode.   I'm breaking down what actually changes when women learn how to scale well financially—the shifts in stewardship, decision-making, profit, savings, and emotional capacity that allow money to start functioning differently inside your business.   Because real scaling is not just bigger revenue. It's creating a business where money starts supporting your life in a completely new way.   If your income has grown but your sense of financial stability hasn't grown with it yet, this episode will hit home.   In this episode, I talk about: How scaling creates opportunities for greater wealth, stability, and financial power. The difference between increasing revenue and expanding true financial abundance. 4 foundational money habits that support long-term scaling and financial independence. How intentional money stewardship strengthens your business growth. Why normalizing wealth accumulation is essential for sustainable expansion. The mindset shifts that support a richer relationship with money. How to build a business that creates more profit, more peace, and more freedom.   Featured on the Show: Ep #123: Owner's Pay 101: What It Is, How It Works, and Why It Matters: https://www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/owners-pay-101/ Ep #135: Money Guilt and the Fear of Outgrowing the People Around You: https://www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/money-guilt-outgrowing-people/ Ep #136: Freedom-Based Scaling: Why More Clients Isn't the Answer: https://www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/freedom-based-scaling/ Ep #138: Masterful Coaching Is the New Premium: https://www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/masterful-coaching-new-premium/ Raise your rates with clarity and hold them with confidence inside The Pricing Room™: https://kendallsummerhawk.com/pricingroom/ Join Sacred Money Archetypes® Certified Coach Training to get this done-for-you, and brand as your own, money coaching system: https://sacredmoneyarchetypes.com/ Take the Free Sacred Money Archetypes® Quiz: https://www.sacredmoneyarchetypes.com/quiz/pc/ Download my Free Pricing Guide for Coaches: https://kendallsummerhawk.com/pricing/ Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kendallsummerhawk/ Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KendallCoach/ What question would you love for me to answer on the podcast, about money, pricing, or coaching?

Closing your laptop at the end of the day but still feeling emotionally tied to a life that no longer fits. Looking around at everything you've built and quietly thinking, “Why doesn't this feel right anymore?”There's grief in outgrowing a version of yourself that once made sense. Grief in realizing the career, identity, or path you worked so hard for might not be the one you want to carry into your next season of life.This episode explores what it looks like to reinvent yourself without losing yourself in the process.Dr. Diane Van Staden shares her experience of leaving behind a successful academic career after immigrating from South Africa to Canada and the identity shift that came with starting over professionally. The conversation moves through the fear of uncertainty, the pressure of other people's expectations, comparison, purpose, self trust, and the emotional process of letting go of who you used to be.There's also a powerful conversation around grieving identities that no longer fit and learning how to build a life that feels aligned instead of simply impressive.This one is for the woman who knows she's changing but keeps wondering if she's allowed to want something different now.Resources Mentioned:Connect with Dr. Diane on IG: drdianevanstadenDr. Diane's podcast: Life beyond clinicalpracticeEpisode 186: How to Grieve The Life You ExpectedWork with me:The Leaders Table: https://www.samanthapenkoff.com/leaders-tableBreakthrough Intensive - You already know you should slow down, delegate more, stop overcommitting & be emotionally present.

"One of the greatest tragedies in life is waking up one day and realizing you became who the world wanted… but never who you truly are." What if the life you're living was shaped by expectations you never consciously chose? In this powerful episode of Soul Talk, Kute Blackson invites you to confront one of the deepest questions of all: If life was a movie… whose script are you living? From childhood, many of us are conditioned to seek approval, play roles, and become versions of ourselves that feel acceptable, successful, or safe. But over time, constantly performing who you think you should be can disconnect you from who you truly are. This conversation explores how fear, conditioning, and the need for validation quietly shape your choices, relationships, dreams, and identity, often without you realizing it. Kute reveals why so many people feel empty even after achieving what they thought they wanted, and how living unconsciously according to someone else's script slowly drains your sense of aliveness, purpose, and freedom. More importantly, this episode is an invitation to pause and ask yourself whether the life you're building genuinely reflects your truth or whether you've simply become loyal to a role you outgrew long ago. If you've ever felt disconnected from yourself, trapped in expectations, or afraid to fully honor what your soul truly wants, this conversation may help you remember that your life was never meant to be a performance, it was meant to be authentically yours.   Timestamps 01:48 – The question that changes everything: whose life are you really living? 04:12 – How conditioning shapes the roles you unconsciously play 07:35 – The hidden cost of seeking approval and validation 11:08 – Why success can still leave you feeling empty inside 15:42 – Outgrowing old identities, relationships, and expectations 21:10 – What happens when you finally choose your truth over performance Some Questions I Ask Are you living your truth… or a version of yourself built for approval? How much of your life was consciously chosen by you? Who would you be if you stopped performing for acceptance? What parts of yourself have you abandoned just to belong? Have you become successful at a life that no longer feels like yours? If life was a movie… would you be proud of the character you're becoming? In This Episode, You'll Learn The 6 life characters secretly shaping your identity and choices Which survival role may be keeping you stuck and unfulfilled Why success means nothing when you're living out of character How people-pleasing and performance disconnect you from yourself The hidden pattern behind feeling lost, restless, or emotionally drained How to stop acting out a role and start living your real life Get in Touch: Create a life that is a masterpiece.

(Episode 339) She's a freshly licensed massage therapist with a cleaning business she's built from nothing, a partnership offer that feels all kinds of wrong, and a spirit that is quite literally too big to be contained. I knew the moment we started talking. The channel opened so wide I had to just keep going. What came through was a vision, ancient, sacred, expansive and a very clear message from Spirit that some of us are wild horses and the sooner we stop apologizing for it the better. This one hit me in the chest. I think it might hit you there too.In this episode we talk about:00:00 The Courage to Proceed with A Career Transition04:26 Spirit's Messages and Card Pull23:34 How To Negotiate Your Terms29:41 Breaking Limiting Beliefs34:54 Using Joy as Your Compass42:22 Outgrowing the Old Identity45:50 Leaning Into Your MagnetismGet Your 10% off your yearly Numerology Report here: http://zoeygreco.com Don't miss the next Pajama Party! http://zoeygreco.comTake my FREE quiz!What's your intuitive style?

This is the 4th part of the Pruning Season Series This episode is powered by The Ascension Archetype Quiz. “Most of the loneliness you feel isn't from who left… it's from who you keep.”  — Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon Everyone tells you that success gets lonely at the top. But what if that's not true? What if the loneliness you feel right now isn't because you've arrived… but because you haven't fully left where you used to be? Because the truth is, most CEOs don't feel isolated because people walked away. They feel isolated because they're still sitting in rooms that no longer match who they've become. And if you've been shrinking your wins, performing connection, or staying loyal to environments that no longer stretch you, this episode is going to confront the real reason growth feels so uncomfortable. It's not loneliness. It's misalignment. If you are a six- or seven-figure CEO experiencing leadership loneliness, outgrowing relationships, or feeling disconnected even while your business is growing, this episode will give you language for what is actually happening. In part four of the Pruning Season series, Dr. Darnyelle breaks down why scaling your business often requires evolving your environment, how CEO isolation is often a result of misaligned relationships, and why staying loyal to rooms that no longer fit is costing you your next level. We explore leadership loneliness, CEO identity shifts, business growth isolation, relationship misalignment, and how your environment directly impacts your ability to scale. Here's the truth: your next level is not waiting on better strategy… it's waiting on a different environment. And as long as you stay where you are comfortable, you will never step into where you are called. You'll walk away with clarity on why your relationships feel different as you grow, how to identify the three types of relationships that shift during pruning, and what it really takes to create environments that support your next level of leadership, wealth, and identity.  Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ how to recognize when your environment no longer matches your level ✔ how to release relationships without guilt or self-betrayal ✔ how to intentionally step into rooms that expand your leadership ✔ and so much more This episode is a call to stop confusing loyalty with alignment. It challenges you to look at the rooms you're in, the relationships you're maintaining, and the environments you've outgrown and make decisions that reflect who you are becoming, not who you used to be. This is your invitation to stop performing in rooms that no longer require your growth. To release environments that feel familiar but no longer feel expansive. To trust that the right rooms will not require you to shrink to stay connected.

And now you're feeling the gap “Staying out of loyalty will cost you the alignment your next level requires.” “You don't feel disconnected because you've grown… you feel disconnected because you're still trying to fit.” Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Where am I shrinking so others feel comfortable around me? Am I staying in this relationship because it's aligned or because I feel obligated? Do my current environments challenge me or just celebrate me? What conversations am I no longer having that my next level requires? What would change if I chose alignment over loyalty?   Want more of Darnyelle?
