In this episode, Christina Lecuyer is pulling back the curtain on what high-achievers are really dealing with behind the scenes — even when life and business look wildly successful on paper.

From commanding medical units in the Army to launching a maternal mental health practice, Priya shares her journey from checking all the boxes to realizing she was living someone else's version of success. She dives into the pressure high-achieving women face during motherhood, the myth of "doing it all," and how her own healing journey led her to coaching women through their own motherhood transformations.If you're pregnant, postpartum, or supporting someone who is—this conversation is for you. Learn how to redefine success, release guilt, reclaim joy, and build a life on your terms. Plus, hear real client stories, practical strategies, and why sometimes the only permission you need is your own. About Priya:Priya Rednam-Waldo is a licensed therapist with a degree from Johns Hopkins University.

381 Rock N Roll Authenticity and living your life in a way that reflects who you are and how you hope to be perceived is something we all strive for, however it can be easy to forget that change and growth is a constant changing cycle, even from moment we are allowed and expected to invent who we are. In this episode Sarah Elkins ruminates on when she joined the rock band she is apart of and how it has helped shape her authentic self as well as how important fun and joy is to the true sense self.    Highlights What is authenticity to you? How do you portray your authentic self? Untangling core values from the actions we believe are authentic. How do you want to be known and remembered for?  There is no permanent state of the self.    Quotes “I was still not rock and roll. I was wearing a persona on stage because it was fun not because it felt like me.” “All that would have been missed if I had decided that my authentic self was not rock and roll.” “What opportunities have you dismissed because they didn't feel authentic?”   About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana.

Christina gets real about her journey with control, faith, and money — and how learning to let go changed every area of her life.She shares how early experiences shaped her beliefs about success and security, the pressure she felt to constantly be in control, and the fear that held her back from true peace — especially around money.This episode is an invitation to surrender the grip, rewrite your story, and start trusting that your worth and abundance were never meant to be earned through hustle alone.

377 The Art of Storytelling: A Controlled Burn in The Forest Of Life   Throughout life we have a tendency to collect things, whether they be stories, memories, or physical objects, and more often than not we cling to these things despite them no longer serving us in any meaningful capacity. Which is why it is important to sit back, look at your hoard and realize you are not a dragon who must keep every single piece of scrap. You can thank the item, story, or memory and leave it behind so that you can open up to new possibilities and new meaningful things to put in your life. In todays episode Sarah Elkins educates us on the importance of controlled burns in the national parks of the west, as well as the importance of our own “controlled burns” to clear away the clutter and make way for new, healthy growth in our lives.    Highlights Protecting our future and our communities, means protecting our environment too. Sometimes you need to shed the dead parts of the past in order to grow.  What strategies can you use to do your own “controlled burn”, to remove the things in your life that no longer serve you in a meaningful way?   Quotes “Even in my life activities I'm finding I need to shed things like relationships that no longer serve me, relationships that don't feel reciprocal at all, commitments that feel too obligatory and not meaningful. And work activities that aren't moving the needle for me in income or intrinsic reward.” “A controlled burn requires research, planning, and a whole lot of patience.”   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, If you're feeling overwhelmed with to much mental and physical clutter it might be time for you to take inventory too. Ask yourself the tough questions on what you truly need and want in your life and your home. And I hope you'll take the next steps to research and plan and patiently reduce that clutter.  And, as always, thank you for listening.    As I mentioned I am celebrating my five year book-versary, starting today Your Stories Don't Define You was published May 31, 2020.

The Truth Behind the Snapshot: Building Your Personal Success Algorithm We've all seen it: someone pulls up in a beautiful car, posts a picturesque vacation photo, or shares a business milestone on LinkedIn. And just like that, our mind starts to draw conclusions. They've made it. They've figured it out. Why not me? But the truth is, success is never as instantaneous as it looks. What we're seeing is a snapshot—a single frame from a much longer movie. That person smiling in front of the new house may have spent years quietly grinding, filled with self-doubt, maxed-out credit cards, and sleepless nights. They might still be in it, just in a different chapter. Their external “win” today could be the first fruits of a seed planted long ago in silence and struggle. Given we are all at different stages, it's important to have your own personal recipe. Below are some helpful steps as you build and grow. 1. Define What Success Looks Like for You Not your neighbor's version. Not social media's version. Is it more time with your family? Financial freedom? Creative expression? Peace of mind? Success without a personal definition becomes a trap of chasing what everyone else wants. Action: Write your own success mission statement in one or two sentences. Example: “Success to me is having enough financial stability to support my family while maintaining the freedom to spend time with them daily.” 2. Audit Your Inputs What are you consuming daily—content, conversations, people, environments? Every input becomes part of your algorithm. If you're only watching people who portray perfect lives, your brain will feed you unrealistic output. Action: Replace one unhelpful input with something inspiring and honest—a book, podcast, or community that shares the full journey, not just the highlight reel. 3. Collect Ingredients, Not Idols You don't need to be that successful entrepreneur or become that perfect parent—you just need their best practices. Take the ingredient that works for you, and discard the rest. Action: Identify 3 people you admire in different areas of life. Ask: “What's one habit they have that I could try for 30 days?” Test it. Keep it if it fits. 4. Build Feedback Loops What's working? What isn't? What are you doing just because you think you should? Real algorithms adapt. So should yours. Action: Set a monthly check-in with yourself. Ask: “Did I move closer to my version of success this month? What should I keep, change, or drop?” 5. Stay in Beta Mode Nothing is final. Life changes, goals evolve, circumstances shift. Don't lock yourself into a system that served the old version of you. Stay agile. Action: Journal occasionally on the prompt: “What does the next version of me need more of? Less of?” 6. Add Compassion as a Constant Any algorithm needs constants. In this one, compassion for yourself and others is non-negotiable. You're not a robot. You will fail, pivot, and question things. That's not the breakdown—it's the build. Action: Choose one self-compassionate phrase you'll return to when things get hard. (e.g. “I'm building, not finished.”)   www.BusinessFinanceAndSoul.com  www.CallTSG.com   

Let's dive deep into the power of mindset shifts, overcoming self-doubt, and unlocking your full potential. Christina sits down to share personal stories and transformative insights on breaking free from limiting beliefs, trusting yourself, and investing in personal growth. You'll learn how small changes in perspective can lead to massive breakthroughs, how to navigate life's biggest decisions with confidence, and why embracing vulnerability is the key to resilience. Whether you're seeking motivation, clarity, or a fresh perspective, this episode is packed with actionable wisdom to help you step into the best version of yourself. Don't miss this game-changing conversation!

375 Practicing What You Preach It's important in life, whether you are running your own business or in your daily life, to practice what you preach. Not only do you avoid being seen as hypocritical but often the best person to give you advice is you. Consult with other coaches and counselors, ask the opinions of those you love and value, do whatever you need to in order to put yourself on the path to fulfillment and success. In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Mike Trugman discuss practicing their own advice, as well as the importance of doing what you will say you will in order to put yourself in a better environment that will help you grow and thrive.    Highlights How do you approach your own self learning and self development? What do you need to do more of to bring yourself more fulfillment? Are you in a place that lets you grow and thrive? Or do you need to find somewhere new to grow?   Quotes “We think we're really sneaky, or really good at hiding these aspects of ourselves but there is no separate ‘I'm playful over here' ‘I'm not playful over here.' you are who you are.” “In some capacity we have helped people with public speaking, each of us.” “We've been conditioned for the most part in our society that to be successful you need to be relentlessly hard on yourself, and give up a lot of aspects of your life. And I love to work with people who are doing the courageous work of: What if I were really kind to myself? What could life look like if I was kinder and gentler to myself? And almost in a way, allowed my success to unfold, rather than something I need to grasp and control and attain. And if I lived that way, how would that make my personal relationships and the rest of my life better?” “You can have everything you want in your life and also feel good about yourself at the same time, and it doesn't have to be one or the other. Which is what I think a lot of us are taught and believe.”   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, I would love for you to think about a time when something went sideways for you. I know we all have episodes that went a little sideways. But when was a time where things really went sideways for you and someone showed up to be your guide? It might've been in a negative way, it might've been somebody who did something so bad that you chose a different path in spite or to spite this person. But more than likely, you hit a point where things went so sideways that only somebody who loves you could help guide you out of that. Think about that moment, write it down, collect that story because as Mike said; it's not all about I did this and now I'm here, it's what obstacles did you overcome to get here? Because that's the story that inspires.  And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Mike Mike Trugman is a Professional Life and Career Coach who helps his clients move from fear to thriving with purpose, passion and fulfillment.

374 Passion and The Road To Fulfilling Success   When we were kids we all wanted to be something extraordinary. We wanted to be magicians, doctors, paleontologists, astronauts, ballerinas, but somewhere along the way some of us lose that sparkle. We get sucked into the everyday routine of work and taking care of those around us. However that spark is not lost forever, sometimes existing as a fleeting ember of ambition that only needs to be cultivated to turn into a roaring flame of fulfilling success. In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Jimi Gibson discuss the importance of trying different paths in life and how there are many off ramps and back roads full of experiences to the destinations we want to reach.    Highlights You will always find a way out of a situation you are in. Those who care about you and believe in you will support you through the difficult times. Telling your own stories and the stories of others in a way that reflects who you are.   Quotes “I was going through my Strength's Finder and I was like, ‘I wonder where that came from?' I believe we're all born with these innate gifts.” “Depending on the size of the audience, you want to connect with who is in the audience.” “Everybody has their personal Abracadabra”   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, Think about yourself as a six or eight year old and the thumbprint you would have left behind in a story like Jimmy's, how would you decorate it? Would it be an artist? Would it be a musician? Would it be a nurse, or a doctor? Would it be a magician? Think back on that, and this doesn't mean that you have to become that as a career, but what it does mean is that whatever it was that brought you satisfaction about that as a child, is what you need to be seeking now.   And, as always, thank you for listening.    Mentioned  The Hero With A Thousand Faces Jimi's TEDX   About Jimi Jimi Gibson isn't your typical VP of Brand Communication.

My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home.

370 Whatever Will Be, Will Be We can often have expectations of how the world is supposed to work, like we are running out of time or that we have to hold on desperately to ideas and beliefs that no longer serve us. However, it is imperative to our growth as individuals, and in turn, our business ventures, to let go of the beliefs that no longer serve you and to learn to accept that whatever will come to you when you are ready, and in its own good time.  In this episode Sarah Elkins and Rashina Gajjar discuss the lessons they've learned on their own private journeys, as well as how their own knowledge has helped to serve clients and friends alike.    Highlights Acknowledging the reality of a situation regardless of if you are proud of that thing or not. Sometimes we sabotage ourselves with change for the sake of change without it being intentional or meaningful change.  Things will happen when they are meant to.    Quotes “I guess learning to let go and surrender that and to move into this path that I think is more aligned with my broader purpose that really required me to yield and to let go of something that I thought that I had really wanted, and at the time I did want, but was no longer in the forefront of my vision.”  “Everything has it's own timing. The moments of preparation are important, the moments when you're stumbling are important, because they also get you there. But don't be frustrated if it doesn't happen in those moments, because it will happen in the right way. I think that's something I've been constantly learning in my life, and this was an example of it. And I think also my friend it was an example for her as well, the divine timing of things.”      Dear Listeners it is now your turn, What will you do to choose tomorrow? What is one thing you can do to decide that you have earned and that you deserve the life that you want? Everyday you have choices to make to remind yourself that you deserve the life that you want. That means choosing the labels that fit you rather than holding onto the ones that people gave you.  And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Rashina Rashina Gajjar is a British entrepreneur, Brand Amplifier and Belief Coach.

367 Manifesting Humanity   It can be easy to forget that we're human. When work is stressful and all consuming, when dealing with people stuck in the past and the past versions of you, it's easy to forget we are a person with needs to lead a fulfilling life.  In this episode Sarah Elkins and Alison Miller discuss how the stories we carry with us alter the people we are, often making us revert to the person we used to be and not the person we are now or the person we want to be.    Highlights How do you manifest your humanity? Practicing new ways of being in a community. Are you being there for yourself? It's okay to fall sometimes.    Quotes “This is a human being living in our society, how do we decide that we make life work for people.” “We're observing it, we're not judging it.” “We always have choices but rarely are they apparent to us.”   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, I would love to hear from you, what part of this conversation resonated with you? To be in community, to grow, to learn, to connect in an authentic way with people who have diverse backgrounds and have led different lives than you. And When are you going to decide who you're going to bring to that next conversation to someone you want to have a relationship with.   And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Alison Alison Miller, PhD, is a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur who is passionate about making personal and spiritual growth accessible and easy to incorporate into daily life.

In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana.
