In this episode, recorded just days before stepping onto a plane to Italy, Angie talks about the permission slip we've all been waiting for. The one that would finally make it okay to want the expansive life, to go toward the dream, and stop deferring the long vision.
Nobody is coming to give you permission. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why waiting for validation is one of the biggest reasons smart people never take action. Let's be real… If you are waiting for someone to tell you that you are ready… Ready to launch… Ready to sell… Ready to lead… Ready to become the CEO… You are going to wait forever. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the market does not care about your past titles or resume How waiting for approval keeps entrepreneurs stuck on the sidelines Why action is the only credential that actually matters How to build authority by stepping up before you feel fully ready The truth is simple: No one is going to hand you the crown. No one is going to tap you on the shoulder. No one is going to magically declare that you are qualified. You have to authorize yourself. Pick up the phone. Make the pitch. Launch the offer. Take the risk. Because the only validation that matters is a paying client. Most people wait to feel ready before they move. High-level operators move first… And become ready through execution. Stop waiting for permission. Write your own permission slip. Claim the role. Do the work. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

When life starts hitting different, the invitation is not to hold it all together perfectly. It is to remember that you are human.
The thing everyone agrees is the right way to work has quietly produced some of the worst corporate ethics violations in modern history.Product Manager Brian Orlando and Enterprise Business Agility Leader Om Patel discuss and debate how outcome-based goals can and often do go catastrophically wrong - from Facebook to Wells Fargo - and introduce a stakeholder outcome mapping tool you can use immediately.Listen or watch to understand:How outcome-based OKRs quietly enable the worst ethics failuresThe invisible gorilla experiment which illustrates how goals function as mental blindersThe headlines test for stress-testing your goalsA stakeholder outcome mapping exercise to surface hidden tradeoffsWhy the system doesn't need evil people - just good people with bad incentivesThis podcast is for anyone who is looking to understand how the efforts of well-meaning and "not-evil" people can and often does go off the rails. It may also be tangentially useful to leaders who are tired of pretending outcome goals are automatically ethical... but you first must WANT to change....and if you do like this one, get ready for a Part 2 next where we'll discuss WHY the damage from outcome-based goals is often invisible until it's too late, why organizations systematically destroy whistleblowers, and what Deming figured out decades ago that the tech industry still ignores!#ProductEthics #OKRs #ProductManagementState of Product 2026 by Atlassian, Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams, Facebook's Ethical Failures Are Not a Bug They Are a Feature by Betty (2021), Invisible Gorilla Experiment, Locke and Latham Goal Setting Theory, DemingLINKSYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@arguingagileSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/362QvYORmtZRKAeTAE57v3Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/agile-podcast/id1568557596INTRO MUSICToronto Is My BeatBy Whitewolf (Source: https://ccmixter.org/files/whitewolf225/60181)CC BY 4.0 DEED (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.en)
This week, our host Michele Lamoureux is inviting you to slow down and to intentionally give yourself 15-minutes to just be in the moment, get connected to how you are really feeling, and gain clarity. There is always more to do, but if you never stop, you'll burn yourself out, which makes it harder to gain momentum towards the life you desire.

Dating feels harder than ever — and it's not just you. In this episode, I break down why dating burnout is so widespread right now, what AI dating features are actually doing to your ability to connect, and why the solution has nothing to do with finding the right app. If you're exhausted, disenchanted, or quietly wondering whether you even want to be dating right now, this episode is your permission slip to stop, reset, and approach it completely differently.

What if the key to unlocking your biggest goals isn't willpower or grinding harder — but learning to speak the language of your own subconscious? In episode 256 of Joy Found Here, certified hypnotherapist and intuitive guide Lynnsey Robinson pulls back the curtain on why so many of us stay stuck despite wanting change, and what it actually takes to get your mind working for you. From demystifying hypnosis to explaining why your "I am" affirmations might be misfiring, Lynnsey makes the science of transformation feel genuinely exciting.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(04:38) Lynnsey's unconventional childhood and what drew her to the human mind(07:45) The book that sparked her journey into hypnotherapy(13:18) Her Human Design type and why it's a permission slip to be yourself(16:02) The two suggestibility types and why they matter(20:59) Why "I am" affirmations don't work for everyone — and what to say instead(25:04) How Lynnsey discovered and claimed her intuitive gifts(30:40) What spirits are really like and why you don't need to fear them(33:34) Why we self-sabotage and what the subconscious is actually doing(35:00) How hypnotherapy works and what happens in a trance-like state(42:16) What a session with Lynnsey looks like and how to work with herLynnsey Robinson is a certified hypnotherapist, intuitive guide, and mindset coach who helps women rewire their subconscious minds to manifest with ease and align with their highest selves. Drawing on her background in behavioral science, EFT, human design, past life regression, and spiritual hypnosis, she works with clients exclusively online and is also the co-host of High Vibin' It, a weekly spiritual podcast. In this episode, Lynnsey takes us from her unconventional childhood — growing up between a religious mother and an empathic, hippie father — to her winding path to becoming a hypnotherapist, sharing the pivotal "signs" that kept pointing her back to her calling. She demystifies hypnotherapy by breaking down the conscious vs. subconscious mind, explaining why we self-sabotage even our most wanted goals, and why cookie-cutter "I am" affirmations don't work for everyone — offering practical reframes that actually stick. She also opens up about claiming her intuitive gifts after years of fear, and closes with a synchronistic oracle card pull that ties the whole conversation together beautifully.Connect with Lynnsey Robinson:WebsiteInstagramTikTokPodcast: High Vibin' ItApp: Align Your MindLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Most people are walking around with invisible permission slips that were written by someone else — parents who played it safe, teachers who emphasized limitations, a culture that rewards conformity and punishes desire. You have been waiting for permission your entire life. Permission to want what you want. Permission to receive without guilt. Permission to succeed beyond what your family has ever known. Permission to be seen in your full power. This episode is the permission slip you have been waiting for — and the revelation that the only signature it ever needed was yours. In this powerful affirmation activation I guide you through over 150 pure permission-based declarations covering every domain where you have been holding yourself back. From the foundational layer — permission to exist, to take up space, to have needs — through inherited family ceilings, body and health, money and wealth, work and purpose, relationships and love, and the deep ones: permission to change your mind, to fail, to start before you are ready, to be happy now without earning it first. Every affirmation begins with "I give myself permission," "I allow myself," "I permit myself," or "I grant myself the right." This is the systematic dismantling of every self-imposed ceiling you have been living under — and the installation of unconditional internal authorization to receive, create, and become everything you came here to be.
The Big Questions That Keep New Podcasters Stuck: Every week, I have similar conversations with prospective podcast clients. They come to me with a massive list of “to-dos” and a whole lot of overwhelm from the pressure to do way more than necessary to launch.And every single week, my answer is the same: You're overcomplicating it.Podcasting shouldn't add twenty hours of work to your week. It should be a high-leverage tool that turns listeners into leads. In this episode, we're stripping away the “shoulds”—like the pressure to do video—and answering the most common questions I get from people who are ready to launch but tired of the noise.Here's what's inside:The Case for Audio-First: Why you can give yourself full permission to skip the video setup and why audio actually builds deeper trust.The “What Should I Talk About?” Solution: Instead of brainstorming, look at your client wins and common hurdles. You can pull content directly from the conversations you're already having.The Editing Debate: Do you really need to edit? I'll tell you why I say “yes” every single time, even for live workshops, and the tool I've used for years to make it fast.The Strategy Before the Gear: You don't need a high-end microphone but you do need a purpose. Before you spend a dime, I'm giving you the one question you have to answer FIRST.Resources Mentioned:The Podcast Health Checkup: Before you launch or relaunch, set your foundation for a successful, monetized podcast.

In this Creative Pep Talk, I'm sharing the three-word message I saw on the back of a truck that stopped me in my tracks—and how it helped me save my creative spark.

Feedback is one of the most powerful tools a leader has — and one of the most misused. Most leaders are either avoiding it entirely or delivering it like a surprise attack. Whether you're a manager trying to build a team culture where people tell each other the truth, or a professional who wants to handle feedback with more confidence and less defensiveness , this episode gives you a practical framework you can use immediately.In this episode:Why avoiding feedback feels kind but is actually costing your teamThe "permission slip" technique and the psychology behind why it worksHow to deliver feedback that lands instead of feedback that stingsWhat to do in the first 60 seconds when feedback blindsides youHow to separate the delivery from the data — even when the delivery is terribleThe one follow-up move that changes how people see you as a leaderSupport the showJill Griffin, host of The Career Refresh, delivers expert guidance on workplace challenges and career transitions.

Most of us are not walking around with our own sense of self. We are walking around with a secondhand one, a secondhand interesting, a secondhand valuable, a secondhand worthy, all of it made by somebody else, handed to us, and carried so long we forgot it was never ours to begin with. Toni Morrison called it "secondhand loneliness" in Sula. This episode extends that to the whole self. This episode is The Invitation, a relaunch, a podcast about art, film, writing, culture, and the women building first-person lives.

Is it important for you to be liked by everyone? Do you ever hold back on an idea because you're terrified of what someone else might say? Or have you made a major life decision — like what career to pursue or who to date — based on what others thought you should do, rather than what you actually wanted to do? If any of this sounds familiar, today's episode is for you. If your self-worth depends on an opinion poll, you'll always feel unstable. Fortunately, you don't have to let other people's opinions control your life. Some of the things I talk about are: Why your brain is wired to fear rejection and how it impacts your self-esteem The science behind why external validation creates stress and lowers autonomy How to build self-worth on a foundation you control A mental trick called "The Permission Slip" that frees you from needing others' approval Why setting boundaries feels awkward at first — and how to survive the discomfort A simple challenge to help you take back control of your life this week Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

We recorded this on January 9th, when things in our world already felt heavy. But by the time this episode airs (January 29th), it somehow feels even heavier… so we're really grateful for conversations like this one.We're joined by Sophie Ragir, a coach and creative who's lived through major loss and came out the other side with a clarity we honestly found inspiring. We talk about grief (the messy, non-Hallmark version), the beauty and sometimes even the humor in the transition and how loss can sometimes become the thing that pushes you toward the life you actually want.And yes.....we talk Heated Rivalry. So if you didn't fully get your Ilya/Shane fix at the top of the month, consider this your bonus round. Meet Sophie Ragir Permission Slip and other Sophie musings. *This one really hit.

This episode is a fiery pep talk about something we rarely talk about but desperately need: permission. Not strategy, not logistics but the internal green light we have to give ourselves before any clarity or action can happen.I'm breaking down the permission slips so many women are withholding from themselves like permission to be human, want things, receive support, go after it, evolve, and speak truth — and why giving yourself permission FIRST is the prerequisite to any change or goal.Whether you're pivoting, starting, restarting, or just trying to figure out what you want this year… this one's for you.If this episode hits home… Tag me on IG @kacia.ghetmiri Text it to your best friend / sister / coworker who needs the reminder Leave a review — it means THE WORLD
Welcome to 2026! In this first episode of the new year, Erin gets real about what she's NO LONGER apologizing for—and why you shouldn't either. After sitting down to plan 2026, she realized something: she'd been running her business based on what things "should" look like instead of what she actually wanted. No more. In this powerful solo episode, Erin shares the 5 things she's done apologizing for in 2026—from not 10x-ing her business to building something that doesn't look like anyone else's.

Special Episode – Ventilating Hives vs Condensing Hives, should we be transitioning?
This week, Tina invites us into a gentle December reset with one of her favorite practices: the permission slip. Borrowed from Brené Brown, the permission slip is a simple but powerful way to meet this busy season with more ease, honesty, and compassion. This is your moment to pause, reset, and honor what you need during one of the toughest stretches of the school year. For episode resources, see SelfCareForEducators.com.

Send us a textIn today's episode of The Mothered Business podcast, we dive deep into one of the most universal patterns I see: the craving for certainty in moments where certainty simply does not exist.If you're standing on the edge of a big decision whether that is a new offer, an investment, a pivot, a move, a leap that stretches your identity, and you're waiting to “feel sure,” this episode will feel like someone finally naming what's really going on inside you.We explore the psychology, the nervous system science, and the identity layers behind risk. And more importantly, we uncover the real certainty you're trying to hold onto… and the deeper self-trust available to you when you release it.This is a powerful one for anyone who knows they are made for more but keeps circling the same decision, waiting for perfect clarity before making the move.In this episode we look at:You're not afraid of the risk. You're afraid of what the risk threatens in your identityMothers are uniquely equipped for uncertainty because you already navigate it every single dayYour power is not in predicting outcomes, it's in who you become through the decisionLeadership is not about guarantees, rather it's about self-trustWe get the clarity as a RESULT of making the move not as a PERMISSION SLIP to moveWith love,Robyn xoP.S.

This episode came straight out of a moment inside The Done Era community. We played an A to Z game where everyone named something they were completely done with, and the responses turned into a collective manifesto I haven't been able to stop thinking about. It was honest, cathartic, a little spicy, and a full body exhale for so many of us. Inside this episode I share: Our community's unfiltered A to Z of things we are done with. Why naming what you're done with can feel like dropping a backpack you didn't know you were carrying. How letting go of something often opens new kinds of connection. The freedom that comes from choosing yourself without justification. My hope is that hearing these back to back gives you the same permission it gave us. The kind that whispers hey, you're allowed to put that down. You're allowed to change. You're allowed to choose yourself without giving anyone a five point essay. If something inside you nods along or exhales while you listen, take that as your sign. Your done era starts with naming what you're done with, and if you want more of this energy in your corner, here's the link to join The Done Era community. If you'd love to be a guest on The Nope Coach, I'd love to hear from you. The only way I'm currently accepting guest inquiries is through PodMatch, so use this link to send your pitch.
In this second episode of the December Rich Woman Reset Series, Karen offers something high-achieving women rarely receive — a genuine permission slip to stop shrinking. If you've spent years being the strong one, the caretaker, or the emotional anchor for everyone else, visibility might feel indulgent or "too much." But here's the truth: Visibility is not indulgent. Visibility is financial protection, leadership, and sovereignty. In this short, powerful reset, Karen explores: • Why brilliant women stay small even after decades of success • How your visibility expands only after your identity expands • A reflective prompt to tap into your wealthy-woman identity • One small visibility move that can change your entire trajectory • Why slowing down your hustle helps you rise higher You'll walk away feeling grounded, confident, and ready to take up more space — without pushing, performing, or proving. If any part of you is whispering "I'm ready for more," this episode is your nudge forward.
Today's episode is all about why you should give yourself a midlife permission slip and even make a ceremony to celebrate! Specifically, we're talking about giving yourself permission to make yourself happy in midlife. It might seem strange that this is even necessary. Unfortunately, it's quite common to hold yourself back when it comes to your dreams. Learn more: https://suzyrosenstein.com/podcast/ep-436-your-permission-slip-ceremony-in-midlife/

Leftist fantasies are now on full display for the world to see, and that looks like part of the plan. Tonight's first 56 minutes is a federal employee chat group plotting subversive noncompliance. Group sessions for hate therapy. A checkoff list for bitching. With twisted history and shallow reasoning. On our dime, they plan to bring down the government. These calls should never have taken place. There's 20 participants involved just from the CDC. Laptop issues plague us. Iran, Venezuela, Ukraine, they've all had civil disobedience. Who handles the organization, finance and management of these efforts? We are propping up the new praetorians again. It's not science or service, it's strategy. They use the vocabulary of political safety. It's a mix of truth, narrative framing and outright fiction. We always ask who benefits? And how do narratives migrate? The patterns are hidden in plain sight. Our exported revolutions are returning home. The war is soft but the stakes are high. Hope lives in those who refuse to be motivated by fear. The Phoebe case is moving forward. Behind their words is the same soft power coup strategy that's been used forever. The subtle hints about non human intelligent life. Will the real John Titor please stand up? That's a good memory for such a little girl. Here is a real story about a gifted child we all know.
This is me, stripped all the way down—no blueprint, no checklist, no “industry flex.” I burned that version of me to the ground.What you're hearing now is my art, my heart, my codes. Fitness, yes. Health, yes. But also money, business, love, loss, intimacy, nervous system, all of it—because you don't just scale a brand, you scale yourself.I'll take you into the real decisions that cracked me open—the $45K choice that changed my life, the moments I stopped chasing shiny coaches and chose depth over performance, intimacy over attention. This is the front row seat to everything I used to hold back, and the invitation for you to stop performing and start creating from your own center.Support the showHosted by Casey Shipp — 3000+ transformations, Self-Made Millionaire, High Priestess, Writer, Fitness Cover Model, and Founder of the Hotbody App. ✨ Ready to stop spinning your wheels and finally step into the body, energy, and lifestyle you deserve?

I sit down with two innovation leaders from one of America's oldest and most trusted consumer brands. Leah Fischman Hunter, Director of the Innovation Lab, and Ginny Fahs, Director of Product R&D at Consumer Reports, join me to unpack how a 90-year-old nonprofit is building modern tools for an online world filled with AI hype, dark patterns, and data brokers. I share a personal connection at the top. In 2004, I helped launch Consumer Reports WebWatch in the press, when most sites hid executive names, contact details, and return policies. That early effort to bring transparency to the Internet in the 1990s is why this episode matters so much to me. Two decades later, the stakes are even higher, with scams in our inboxes, consent buried in legalese, and AI systems shaping what we see and buy. CR has always had our backs and I wanted you to hear how they are doing it again. Leah and Ginny explain how Consumer Reports blends advocacy with product building. Their team translates privacy laws into something people can actually use. We dig into Permission Slip, a free app that lets you reclaim your data and tell companies to stop selling it. We discuss the reality of an opt-out culture in the United States, why people feel powerless regarding data, and how CR's independence and mission enable it to prioritize the public interest. We also explore Ask CR, an advisor grounded in tested ratings and reporting, rather than ads or affiliate commissions. We zoom out to the bigger shift happening with AI. I raise the worry that conversational agents often deliver a single definitive answer, while consumers still need choice and transparency. Leah and Ginny describe early work with academic partners on pro-consumer agentic systems and what duty of care and duty of loyalty could look like in software built for people, not just profits. We explore why online evidence needs clearer authorship, how to consider deleting data from platforms you rely on, and where education must catch up quickly. If you care about your privacy, your wallet, and the truth behind the products you buy, this one is for you. You will walk away with a clearer picture of what rights you already have, how to exercise them without hiring a lawyer, and why organizations like Consumer Reports still matter when technology moves faster than the rules that govern it.
What if everything you believed about leadership was built on outdated rules?

How we view God shapes how we live. Many see Him as restrictive or punishing, but from Eden to Jesus, God's actions have always been rooted in protection and love. His commands aren't about control—they're about inviting us into abundant life and shielding us from harm.

Subscriber-only episodeYour life changes dramatically over time, so why wouldn't your business? After working with entrepreneurs for nearly a decade, I've witnessed firsthand how personal evolution directly impacts business goals and models. The truth is, the five-year goals we enthusiastically set today reflect who we are in this moment—not who we'll become as life unfolds.This natural evolution explains why many of us find ourselves pivoting from our original business models. In my own journey, I've transitioned from creating online courses (which made perfect sense for my teaching background in 2015) to facilitating intimate mastermind groups where I now work with the same five women for 18+ months, witnessing profound transformations in both their businesses and personal lives. This shift wasn't random—it reflected my growing desire for deeper connection and impact as I myself matured and changed.As women entrepreneurs especially, our businesses cannot help but reflect our life stages. When I started my business at 35 with children ages two and five, I had vastly different priorities compared to now at 45 with older kids. That's precisely why I advocate for regular business audits—whether annually or ideally quarterly—to reassess your mission, vision, ideal audience, and service models. Give yourself permission to evolve your business alongside your personal journey. The most authentic and sustainable businesses aren't static entities but living expressions that grow as we do. Schedule that audit today and realign your business with who you've become. Your future self will thank you.
Hey Doc —When was the last time someone gave you permission to just want what you want? To go after comfort, joy, ease, or pleasure — without guilt, without justification?This episode of ✨Stethoscopes and Strollers✨ is that permission slip.I'm sharing the moments in my life where a friend, a coach, or even a passing comment gave me the clarity and courage to make a decision that changed everything.Here's what I want you to hear: You don't need to wait.You don't have to justify your joy.You deserve a life that feels good.In this episode, I'm unpacking:
Are you overcome with guilt whenever you need to take a sick day? And even then, do you try to brush it off, pretend it isn't happening, and attempt to push through? This week, I address a profound issue that came up during a recent EPC call with one of my clients. She was dragging herself to work despite being sick for two weeks, feeling guilty about the burden she was placing on her husband at home. This sparked an important conversation about how, particularly as women, we're conditioned to be A+ at everything—partners, parents, friends, housekeepers, and school leaders—often at the expense of our own wellbeing.
