Today's lesson is radical self-acceptance, how to stop fixing yourself, and finally come home to who you are. Why did I choose this as one of the 10 topics? In my nearly 20 years of coaching women, self-acceptance comes up again and again. It's a pattern I see so often. If you're in a transformational period, doing deep work, chasing self-improvement, and still not feeling like you're enough... you're not alone. That push to grow while still feeling unworthy? That's exactly why this topic matters. If you're someone who keeps chasing the next thing, thinking that will finally fix you or make you feel complete, and it's still not landing, this is the episode I really want you to hear. To make this easy to follow and offer some reflection, I'm breaking the episode into five powerful parts, including the truth about why this is so hard and why it's something we tend to circle back to again and again in our personal growth journey. Of course there is a worksheet for this episode! Download it at http://andreaowen.com/670 What you'll hear about in this episode: What the Hell Is Radical Self-Acceptance? It's not about loving everything, but seeing yourself fully, without judgment or sugarcoating. Why It's So Damn Hard: Cultural and generational messaging to be smaller and quieter, internalized shame from decades of shape-shifting, and the fear that self-acceptance means becoming stagnant. The Wisdom of Your Inner Child: How unmet needs and childhood wounds shape perfectionism and people-pleasing, and why re-parenting in small, present ways leads to true healing Embodied Wisdom—Learning to Trust Your Body's Intelligence: Relearning how to trust your body's intelligence, notice somatic cues, and practice self-acceptance through breathwork, rest, and nervous system care How to Actually Practice Radical Self-Acceptance: Shift your inner dialogue, build safety through compassion, and give yourself permission to be messy, soft, and worthy.

Today we honor the sacred essence of womanhood, not just as a role we play in society, but as the force of creation, transformation, and resilience. International Women's Day is not just about celebrating the achievements of women—it's about reclaiming our voice, our power, and our place in the world. We will talk about sovereignty and what that is: Emotional Freedom – not allowing others to dictate your worth or your healing. Spiritual Liberation – trusting yourself and your inner wisdom above external validation. Sacred Boundaries – saying yes to what serves you and no to what diminishes you. Radical Self-Acceptance – releasing shame, guilt, and conditioning that tells you who you "should" be. **FREE MASTERCLASS INFORMATION BELOW LINKS MENTIONED AND MORE FREE MASTERCLASS: Sovereign YOU: Reclaim your power & rise as we celebrate Women's Day/Month: https://www.theseparationclub.com/masterclass Our first retreat at Oodles Resort in Spain promises to be oodles of fun - sorry - couldn't resist.

In this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, we dive into what it takes for women B2B consultants to scale from six to seven figures. Pulling from my new book, “Too Much”, I talk about finding the balance between self improvement and radical self acceptance. Join me as I share insights from my coaching experience, shining a light on the emotional challenges high achieving women face and how to embrace ambition without fear of burnout. Quotes: “Radical self improvement is great. It drives us forward powerfully. It's the engine for all of the amazing things we achieve. But radical self improvement isn't usually kind. It doesn't go easy on us. We actually don't need to learn how to push ourselves as high achievers, especially when you have a corporate background. What we need to learn is how to be kind to ourselves.” “When we match our radical self improvement with radical self acceptance, we change the narrative of growth as being hard and punishing to growth being natural, gentle, beautiful, and deeply, deeply expansive.” “I have this inner drill sergeant who barks orders at me all day, and I know you probably do as well. Get up early, eat healthily, be at your desk by 9am, be productive, be more productive, do your workout… and it just goes on all day, like that. And one of the foundational premises with radical self improvement, if we strip it back, is that we do it from a place of feeling like not enough.” Useful Links Buy Too Much on Amazon Get in touch with Jessica to discuss your consulting business Join the weekly newsletter for women consultants Leave a rating and review for the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast Connect with Jessica on LinkedIn Follow Jessica on Instagram

Have you ever wrestled with an inner critic that berated you for any perceived flaws and prevented you from celebrating your strengths and achievements? While it can be difficult to fully accept yourself exactly as you are, self-acceptance is essential not only for your own happiness, but also the health of your relationships with others – and for leaders, self-acceptance is one of the keys to building high-performing teams. Dr. Laura Gallaher is an organizational psychologist, keynote speaker, USA Today best-selling author, and leadership coach. After the space shuttle Columbia exploded upon reentry in 2003, the NASA Kennedy Space Center hired Laura and a team of organizational psychologists to change the cultural influences that were deemed to play a role in the tragedy. She worked for eight years with NASA to positively influence the culture, develop leadership capacity, and improve organizational performance at Kennedy Space Center, and was then hired by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts to help manage radical changes with their performance management process and philosophy. Laura's company, Gallaher Edge, applies the science of human behavior to organizations so they can gain an edge, achieve together, and enjoy the journey. As our guest in Episode 227 of The Mindset Game® podcast, Laura shares the following: Why psychological safety, which begins with self-acceptance, is crucial for workforce success, as well as tips for leaders seeking to cultivate both Why self-acceptance should also include accepting your inner critic and striving to create harmony between them and your inner champion The relationship between self-improvement and self-acceptance, and why accepting yourself as you are will not necessarily prevent you from continuing to grow and improve To get in touch with Dr. Laura Gallaher, find her on LinkedIn or take her quiz designed to assess your current level of self-acceptance at www.selfacceptancequiz.com.

Let's meet Dr. Laura Gallaher, and learn together where we could possibly take our personal and work environments to new heights. Welcome Dr. Gallaher. Thank you for joining me today. Are you in Orlando now? I know that you have deep roots in the Phoenix area (and lots of places around the world). INTRO Q: Dr. Gallaher, before asking you questions about your book, and your work, I have to say that there was something that drew me to you, before even looking at your bio. When you first meet someone, I think that what goes on inside us, (our mindset) shows on the outside, and I felt like you had a story to tell of where you began. When did you first learn about the importance of radical self acceptance, and how do you think that we can all use this skill in our personal and professional life? Q1: While coming up for some questions for you, I watched your TED TALK “How to Feel at Home Anywhere”[ii] where you talk about the ability to discover your inner confidence, and your ability to cope with the world (so that literally any place in the world) can feel like home. What drew you to create this TED TALK? Q2: It's interesting to me that your topic was “How to Feel at Home Anywhere” because I've thought about this concept often. While I've not worked and travelled to the places and countries that you have (other than via Google Maps) I have noticed that I've always been comfortable walking into a gym. Now I stopped going to a gym around the time of the pandemic, but I can recall always feeling a sense of belonging, and just the place that would fill me up with those feel-good vibes, when I was on the road, and would walk into a gym. Can you share what's important for us, as human beings, or the recipe that you've discovered, to feel comfortable…and make ANY place feel like home? Q3: Can we go to the questions that I think can open the door and help all of us, whether we are an employee in a company, a part of a bigger whole, or a teacher in a school, or a member of a team, how can we take this concept of radical self-acceptance to take us to new heights? Q4: We've been focused on taking our results to higher levels on this podcast. How important is what we think on the inside (our mindset with radical self-acceptance) to our results (on the outside)? Q5: Why are you so passionate about radical self-acceptance? How did NASA help you to uncover the gaps of where you were (actually) and where you wanted to go? Q6: What is psychological safety and how does it relate to how safe people feel to be vulnerable? Q7: Have you ever had a 360 Evaluation at work? How about asking your children how you are showing up as a parent? What can you learn from honest feedback from others? Q8: Dr. Gallaher helps Andrea to dig deeper into feedback that her children gave her. “What bugs me about you, is really about me.”[iii] Q9: How can we take radical self-acceptance into the workplace? Q10: Would you say the most critical leadership traits today would be vulnerability and courage? Q11: What are some stress reduction secrets you can share with us? Q12: How do we put this all together to become more self-aware? Dr. Gallaher, I want to thank you for your time meeting with me today. For people who would like to connect with you, I will put your contact information in the show notes. Do you have any final or closing thoughts? Take the Self-Acceptance Quiz Here https://www.gallaheredge.com/sa-quiz-lp Andrea received the Pushing but Pressured quadrant that shows high on self-improvement, (which she would agree with) but low on self-acceptance (where she is right now) and she would agree this area could use some work. Take the Self-Acceptance Quiz to see what quadrant you end up in, and see what you can learn about yourself. CONNECT with DR.

Embracing Humiliation, Healing Wounds, and Owning Your Unique Special Sauce
Ep. 270 Radical Self-Acceptance - Rev. Cat Cox From the Sunday Service at the Center for Spiritual Living in Redding on 7-28-24
Persevering against all odds, and transforming through the experience is the stuff of inspiration, and makes for great stories to tell. It's the premise behind Deserts to Mountaintops, which chronicles the journey of extraordinary women overcoming monumental challenges. It's the creation of Jessica Buchanan, the woman who made headlines worldwide for her strength and tenacity, surviving a kidnapping by gunpoint by Somali pirates, being held for ransom for 93 days, forced to live outside in deplorable conditions, starved and terrorized, she was finally saved by SEAL Team VI in early 2012. After telling her own story in a book, she moved on to creating a platform to tell the stories of other women. Audrey Casey-Herrick and Wendy Casey (sisters) and their aunt Mary Casey-Bowers wrote their own story in the first volume of the series. Stacia Bissell's life was transformed on a fateful day when she flipped from her bicycle and woke up hours later in her bed, asking countless times why there was a cast on her arm. The journey has been long and winding, and has ultimately led Stacia to step forward in her greater purpose to inspire and enlighten the world through her own story. About Audrey Casey-Herrick and Wendy Casey and their aunt Mary Casey-Bowers (The Mystic Chics): We are modern day medicine women who bring a unique blend of solace and empowerment to any event with their energy healing, music, movement, and sacred ceremony. Whether it is 3 minutes or 3 hours, these intuitive women will help you feel into your own body and energy field to clear blocks and activate your true power. About Stacia Bissell After her world was turned upside down, she learned to navigate a new way of making strides in healing. With encouragement from her medical team, the Brain Injury Association of Massachusetts (BIA-MA), friends and family, she began doing speaking engagements to various audiences on the topic of brain injury. In addition to co-authoring Deserts to Mountaintops; Choosing our Healing through Radical Self-Acceptance, she is a contributor to Brain Injury HOPE magazine, a member of the Brain Injury Association of America's Brain Injury Advisory Council, council member for the Brain InInjury Alliance of Vermont, a program leader for LoveYourBrain, and a member of the BIA-USA speaker's bureau. Stacia co-founded the BIA-MA Northampton Brain Injury Support Group and the Berkshire Brain Injury Collaborative, designed to provide professional development to teachers on return-to-learn strategies after a student suffers from a concussion. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-krol/support

One of the most common and deadly fears people have is the fear of failure. And this fear in particular has dire consequences: It creates a life where every decision is clouded by the terror of making a mistake. Where opportunities are left unexplored because the risk of failure looms too large. A life shackled by the fear of failure leads to stagnation—professionally and personally. Even your relationships suffer because a fear of failure prevents you from being your true self. Living with this fear for too long means never truly knowing the full extent of your capabilities or the depths of who you are. That's the bad news. The good news? When you liberate yourself from the gripping fear of failure, you view every setback as a stepping stone to something greater. Your relationships improve because you show up as your true self. Your career takes off because you're no longer shackled by this pervasive fear. And by embracing failure, you unlock a more adventurous, spontaneous, and fulfilling life. It won't be easy—it takes time and effort to address and overcome this deep-seated fear. But it's possible. In today's episode, you'll discover where the fear of failure comes from, and even more, how to use both modern and ancient wisdom to overcome it and live a more fulfilling life. Listen now. Show Highlights Include: Why attaching your value as a person to your success and failures is a recipe for fear and disappointment (4:54) The Buddhist monk's secret for overcoming your fear of failure (7:38) How striving for happiness keeps it out of your reach (and how to find joy without searching for it) (8:24) 2 simple, yet wildly effective ways to find peace and fulfillment within yourself right now (even if you haven't achieved everything you want) (10:37) 4 exercises to help you directly engage with different parts of yourself and understand why they manifest as fear and anxiety (14:34) The daily “Radical Self-Acceptance” practice that not only enhances your personal relationships, but also deepens your relationship with yourself (18:55) How to become more aware of your intrusive thoughts and transform them into positive ones in just 5 minutes each day (20:06) The dire consequences of living a life controlled by your fear of failure (and how it bleeds into every aspect of your life) (26:15) How embracing failure improves your relationships, boosts your attractiveness, and infuses your actions with a sense of purpose and freedom (27:17) Does your neediness, fear, or insecurity sabotage your success with women?

“Every single thing in my life that has ever terrorized me and terrified me, and I avoided like nobody's business, when I finally either had no place else to run, or I chose to turn around and face it, it has never been as bad as I thought it would be. It has never been as shameful as continuing to avoid.” Our hosts Stephanie McCullough of Sofia Financial and Kevin Gaines of American Financial Management Group chat with Diann Wingert, a seasoned cognitive behavioral coach, about all things financial and mental well-being as a woman with ADHD. Ever wondered how ADHD plays out differently in women? This episode shatters misconceptions, revealing why so many women slip through the cracks of diagnosis. Our hosts and Diann dissect the subtypes of ADHD, emphasizing the often overlooked inattentive presentation common in women. Diann's journey to diagnosis at 60 underscores the urgency for awareness and tailored support. They tackle the daily battles and the broader societal implications, like the struggle with impulse control that can drive compulsive shopping and the resulting financial and emotional toll. Finally, Stephanie, Kevin, and Diann wrap up with a powerful call to radical self-acceptance and the transformative effects of mindfulness in combating cognitive biases.

Well, what if I told you that embracing those shadowy aspects of yourself could be the key to living a truly authentic and whole life? On today's episode, we're cracking open the lid on shadow integration - the powerful work of making peace with the parts of you that you've been hiding away. Get ready to befriend your shadows and transform into allies on the path to radical self-acceptance. This episode of the Desire Sessions podcast explores the concept of shadow integration and how embracing one's shadows can lead to living a more authentic and whole life.

— Since birth, we seem to see the world through a lens that is external to us. No one ever learns to look inward and question the reality of the world through the values and perceptions that they hold. This leads to distorted perceptions of reality. We live in a society that strives for perfection. There are endless messages telling us that we need to slim down, get richer, get smarter, and be better in every way. This mindset can make it easy to lose sight of the fact that it's okay for us to be flawed. By embracing your perceived weaknesses and highlighting what makes you "flawsome" (Flaws + Awesome), you will begin to realize you can grow personally and cultivate real power by embracing your weaknesses. So let's toast to our imperfections and great achievements despite them. Let's embrace our flawsomeness!
