Apply to work with me: https://www.stephanieganowski.com/coaching-application-video/Description of this episode:Most men think freedom in sex means doing whatever they want. But real freedom? It's about how you feel—and how much control you take over those feelings. In this episode, Stephanie shares a personal story about summiting Mount Shasta and unpacks how your interpretation of events, not the events themselves, determine your sex life satisfaction.
If you've been moving through your days on autopilot and suddenly realize you don't quite feel like you anymore, this episode will gently guide you back to center with real, honest steps that worked for me when I needed them most. If you've ever hit a point where you feel totally disconnected from yourself, you are not alone. I recently found myself there after a super fun but unexpectedly exhausting trip, and I had to intentionally work my way back to feeling like “me.” In this episode, I share five things that helped me recalibrate and start moving forward again. I hope these ideas support you, too, when you feel off track. Action Plan: 1 - Stop and listen: Pay attention to the signals your body and mind are sending before they escalate. 2 - Remove what's misaligned: Say no to the things that feel heavy, even if they're small. 3 - Really, truly rest: Let go of the urge to push and give yourself time to recover. 4 - Offer yourself grace: Reframe negative self-talk with truths and compassion. 5 - Own your energy: Acknowledge your role in your overwhelm so you can choose differently going forward.

Michael's background and transition to AI @ 13:38 Michael reveals his unexpected background in the arts and theatre, and how he later transitioned into finance before becoming interested in the implications of AI. He shares insights about the resistance to change and adoption of new technologies within the finance industry. Observations on AI adoption and impact @ 30:22 Michael shares two key observations about the adoption of AI: 1) Finance professionals initially dismissed the potential of machine learning, but then quickly embraced it for commercial reasons rather than scientific merit. 2) Highly experienced and successful finance professionals were often the most resistant to acknowledging the disruptive impact of AI on their industry. Episode Highlights: AI will be the next cautionary tale about companies and individuals who ignore new technology, rather than embrace it. (Think Kodak & Blockbuster.) Don't think of AI as exclusively a technology tool, think of it as a writing and development tool. Humans drive AI by desire, the "I want to..." AI doesn't create or change because it desires to do so. Quotes: "It's not 'how is AI going to change my industry', it's 'how am I going to use AI to change my industry?" On the difference between an AI and human approach: “It's not so much a skills question, it's a will or a desire question, that I want to do something is not within AI's remit..." Meet Michael Kollo: Michael Kollo is a finance professional turned AI strategist with a PhD in Finance from the London School of Economics. With over 15 years of experience at the intersection of quantitative finance and technology, he has held roles at BlackRock, Fidelity, AXA, and HESTA. AI represents the most significant shift in financial services since the rise of algorithmic trading. However, the real challenge lies in deploying AI to create tangible value. Through Evolved AI, Michael works directly with financial firms to ensure AI adoption is practical, secure, and aligned with industry needs. Whether through executive training or micro-automations, he focuses on bridging the gap between AI capability and financial business objectives. Committed to making AI an augmentative tool rather than a black box, he helps firms navigate this transformation with clarity, strategy, and execution.

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.

Michelle addresses strategies for women to effectively manage performance reviews, career progression conversations, salary negotiations, and navigating gender biases in the workplace.Key Points:1. Mindset Shift: - Performance reviews are business meetings, not tests. - Move from anxiety to proactive preparation.2. Effective Performance Review Preparation: - Gather evidence continuously; document accomplishments and contributions regularly. - Use the STAR(O) method: Situation, Task, Action, Result, and Outcome for structured evidence. - Prevent "accomplishment amnesia" by keeping ongoing records.3. Setting the Agenda: - Take charge by proactively proposing career goals and objectives. - Reframe missed targets into learning opportunities; emphasize your growth mindset.4. Salary Discussions: - Frame requests using Business Intelligence (BQ): strategic, financial acumen, and ambition. - Use data-backed reasoning, tie your achievements directly to organizational outcomes. - Conduct salary benchmarking to understand industry standards and position yourself effectively. - Clearly communicate compensation expectations using assertive, business-like language. - Timing is crucial; prepare your manager and avoid surprises.5. Career Progression Conversations: - Initiate conversations early; don't wait to be noticed. - Nail your current role to be considered for advancement. - Partner with your manager and strategic mentor in career planning.6. Navigating Personality vs. Performance Feedback: - Recognize gender bias; women frequently receive personality-based feedback. - Redirect vague feedback by asking for specific examples and connect feedback to measurable outcomes. - Counter biased feedback with documented, positive stakeholder evidence.7. Advocating with Confidence: - Confidence is built on competence and courage. - Emphasize BQ—link your contributions explicitly to organizational success. - Use clear, direct, and assertive language; eliminate diminishing phrases. - Practice and prepare for challenging discussions, rehearsing with trusted colleagues or mentors.Key Takeaways:- Prepare continuously: Document achievements regularly.- Advocate proactively: Speak clearly about your career ambitions and compensation.- Understand the system :Navigate gender dynamics and organizational politics effectively.Action Item:Book a proactive conversation with your manager within one month to discuss your performance, career goals, or compensation.

A woman named Lori from Lexington shares a powerful, hope-filled, and heartfelt call-to-arms for all the men out there trying to live with purity and strength in a world full of distractions. This is the kind of encouragement you’ll want to keep in your back pocket: Brothers, You Were Born for Battle Lori gets it: life is full of struggles, and custody of the eyes (aka, keeping your eyes and heart pure) is a tough one. But here’s what she says: “You were made for this battle.” Not just called to it. Not assigned it like a boring chore. You were built for it. Reframe the Fight Instead of saying, “This is too hard,” Lori wants men to think: “This is hard... because it matters. And I was made to rise to it.” You’re not fighting against women; you’re fighting for their dignity, even when they don’t realize it themselves. You’re protectors, not consumers. You’re glorious warriors, not helpless victims of temptation. “That’s Not for Me.” Lori shares how she also made the decision to divert her eyes, saying: “That’s someone else’s husband. Someone else’s son. That’s not for me.” Simple. Dignified. Beautiful. Women, Back the Men Up! She also issues a challenge to the ladies: "Pray for our men." They’re not weak. They’re not doomed to fail. They’re under attack, and they need our support as they go into the spiritual trenches every day. The Final Word: Men, You Can Do This Lori’s words are necessary. She reminds every man listening that: You’re strong. You’re capable. You’re not alone. You were made for this. With God’s help (and Our Lady’s!), you can win. So don’t give up. Don't believe the lies. Don't sit out the fight. Your sisters are praying for you. Your Church is cheering for you. And Jesus is with you.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores the idea that our emotions are not just reactions to what happens around us, but are conscious and intentional choices we have control over. If we don't consciously choose how to feel, we leave it to chance and find ourselves at the whim of spiralling emotions. Cindy proposes steering away from fear as our default and instead setting intentions for our emotions to learn how to anticipate best-case scenarios instead of worst-case ones. Instead of our emotions being at the mercy of our surroundings, we can instruct ourselves on how to feel. We believe that choosing how we feel means ignoring real problems and pretending everything is fine. That couldn't be farther from the truth. Cindy is clear that choosing our emotions is not about fake positivity or just gritting our teeth through the bad times, it's about claiming ownership over our internal experience. So, how do we do that? By intentionally choosing what we want to feel and setting an emotional anchor for whatever situation arises. Cindy shares four practical strategies to help us take control of our emotions: 1) Start each day by consciously choosing how we want to feel, 2) Reframe fear and criticism immediately, 3) Counter every worst-case scenario with a best-case, and 4) Use intentional compartmentalization. By deciding how we'll feel, we learn to avoid our brain's default setting of predicting danger. Choosing how to feel is a power move, not wishful thinking. Cindy's advice gives us the groundwork we need to start taking control of our emotions.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Not Leaving It To ChanceAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email
So what if you work on something for two, three, five years…You write the dissertation.You build the app.You post the idea.And no one looks.Your advisor doesn't read it.Your peers don't respond.The internet gives you five views and one pity like.This is not a bug in research.This is the game.Dissertations go unread.Projects die in inboxes.New ideas get met with condescension, silence, or worse—indifference.But you're not trying to reach the world.You're looking for one person—Someone playful enough to engage, curious enough to see potential.Most people won't.They'll never move a finger.It's not malice—it's just how it is.The work is in finding that spark.One out of ten million.That's how momentum starts.Ignore the rest.Reframe the silence as signal.Look for the spark.Keep going—quietly, persistently—until it catches.It won't take a year.It might take a decade.Maybe more.But those of us who build know the truth:That's the work.

Send us a textCould your good intentions be breaking your marriage?What if your attempts to guide, correct, or "support" your husband are slowly suffocating your intimacy and turning your partner into a project?In this bold, eye-opening episode, Matthew and Monica Powers dive headfirst into one of the most destructive, but often ignored, dynamics in marriage: the mothering of husbands by their wives. These aren't malicious actions. They're subtle, daily habits: redoing the dishwasher after he loads it, correcting him mid-sentence in public, or taking over because “it's just easier.” But over time, they erode trust, kill sexual energy, and leave both spouses feeling misunderstood and disconnected.Through genuine conversation, biblical truth, and real relationship stories, this episode unpacks:Why micromanagement is the enemy of intimacyHow men process respect (and what happens when it's missing)Why women often feel they're the “only responsible adult”How these patterns make husbands retreat and wives resentfulWhat a true partnership looks like when respect and responsibility are rebalancedYou'll walk away with practical tools, not just feel-good advice:✅ Reframe control into collaboration✅ Ask empowering questions like “How would you handle this?”✅ Embrace the courage to let your spouse fail✅ Take on the 7-Day No-Correction Challenge and watch what happensAnd then, the ultimate test:Ask your husband this brave question, “Do you feel like I trust you?”His answer could open the door to a level of honesty and intimacy you've never had before.This is not another episode of cliché marriage tips. This is expert talk for couples ready to face real problems with love, humility, and God's power. Whether you're just married, deep into your journey, or somewhere in between, this conversation is packed with life lessons, laughter, and transformational truth.
In this episode, I talk about one of the most underrated tools for growth—your perspective. I share why the way you see things often shapes what you get from them, and how small mindset shifts can lead to big changes in results. From the power of intentional disruption to the REFRAME method I use to reset and refocus, this conversation is about breaking patterns, getting clear on what matters, and moving forward with purpose. When we lead with gratitude and curiosity, everything starts to look different—and so do the outcomes we create. To join my next free Friday Training sessions, email me at david@dmeltzer.com

Dr. Corrigan shares her journey as a rural generalist, juggling family medicine, care of the elderly, and specialized clinic procedures—all while navigating the unique challenges of ADHD within the medical profession. Listen in as Dr. Corrigan opens up about overcoming imposter syndrome, adapting her workflow to suit her learning style, and the tools and reframing strategies that have helped her create a more sustainable clinical day. She and Dr. Smith discuss practical solutions—from using timers and EMR hacks to embracing positive self-talk and gamifying the most dreaded tasks.

Tune in for an honest, uplifting, and strategy-filled episode designed to help you reclaim time for your life outside of medicine!

Reframe the Hard Parts: Shifting mindset—from “I have to finish this report” to “I'm almost out the door!”—makes a huge difference. Reward yourself, gamify tasks, and see the power of a positive reframe. Gamify for Focus and Flow: Small hacks (timers, shortcut tools like Magical, or breaking tasks into manageable chunks) help combat time blindness and overwhelm, making even inbox management feel like a win. Meet Dr. Linde Corrigan: I am a rural family physician with enhanced certification in care of elderly. Currently, I work part-time in my family medicine practice in Petawawa, as well as part-time at the hospital, as well as in local long-term care homes in the area.

With over 24 years of experience, Lindy shares how sensory regulation affects everything from focus and behavior to a child's ability to navigate social situations.If your child ever seems “checked out,” overly reactive, or struggles with transitions and noise—this episode is a must-listen. Lindy explains how what we often label as “behavior” is really a regulation issue, shaped by a child's sensory, emotional, and cognitive state. Through real-world examples and grounded explanations, you'll learn how to shift from reacting to connecting.Key Takeaways from This Episode:

Hi everyone! Welcome to another June Reset episode!This time, I'll introduce 5 science-backed tips to shift from self-judgment to motivation.How can you practice self-compassion? How can you redirect when you fail?How do you face negative events? And...
On today's episode Eric explores the pervasive nature of fear in business and personal life, particularly among contractors. Drawing inspiration from figures like Jocko Willink, Eric identifies common fears such as fear of judgment, fear of failure, and fear of success, emphasizing how these can prevent individuals from taking necessary risks or seeking help. Personal anecdotes illustrate how overcoming these fears, even when doing so "scared," can lead to significant growth and improved well-being. The conversation also touches on reframing failure as "data" for improvement and the importance of micro-wins and peer support in conquering inhibitions, ultimately encouraging listeners to confront their fears and "just go." Key Takeaways: Just go and do things scared, rather than being paralyzed by what might happen. Reframe failure as data for learning and correction, not as an end. Focus on micro wins to build momentum instead of overwhelming macro worries. Find a battle buddy or peer group for support and accountability in facing challenges. Question the actual root of your fears, as they are often rooted in the fear of judgment or embarrassment rather than practical concerns.

AI may be fast, smart, and shockingly efficient. But is it truly intelligent? In this thought-provoking solo episode, I explore a powerful and timely idea: the future belongs to those who change the game entirely, not those who keep trying to outrun AI at what it does best. Freelancers and creative professionals are feeling the pressure. AI can now write emails, analyze data, and churn out decent content in seconds. But there's something artificial intelligence can't do: think, discern, feel, and create the way you can. I introduce the concept of “meta-talents” — the higher-order human skills that AI can't replicate — and explain how freelancers can leverage them as a unique competitive edge. What You'll Learn Why AI is making mediocrity obsolete... and what that means for your freelance business The difference between pattern-matching intelligence and true human discernment A breakdown of the 7 meta-talents that set you apart (and why they matter more than ever) How to integrate AI tools strategically without losing your voice or value A practical approach for using AI as a creative amplifier, not a replacement Key Insights and Takeaways AI isn't your competition; it's your complement AI excels at narrow, pattern-based tasks. But it lacks judgment, taste, empathy, and original thought. That's your domain. Your meta-talents are your unfair advantage These include: Taste – Recognizing quality and nuance Discernment – Knowing what matters and why Curation – Synthesizing the best of the best Point of View – Expressing what only you can say Strategic Decision-Making – Choosing wisely amid uncertainty Emotional Intelligence – Reading people and context Pattern-Breaking – Innovating beyond the obvious Writer A vs. Writer B Both use AI, but Writer B asks better questions, brings unique experience to the table, and produces content that's unmistakably human. That's the kind of work clients will still pay premium fees for. Use AI for scaffolding, not soul Let AI handle the grunt work so you can focus on insight, creativity, and strategy. In other words, the things it can't do. This isn't about efficiency. It's about amplification. Action Steps You Can Take This Week Conduct a “Meta-Talent Audit” Which of the seven meta-talents do you lean into most? Which ones need development? Try the “Discernment Challenge.” Use AI to generate options (e.g., headlines or content ideas) Then ask: Which ones truly fit this audience at this moment? Why? Reframe your use of AI Next time you use a tool like ChatGPT, don't just accept the output. Ask: What would make this mine? Where can I add taste, voice, or nuance? Start building your POV Journal daily to explore your thinking, beliefs, values, and unique insights. Ask: What do I see that others don't? Memorable Soundbites “AI can suggest. But it can't discern.” “Use AI for scaffolding—not soul.” “The future belongs to those who pair their meta-talents with smart tools.” “AI doesn't make you replaceable. It makes you irreplaceable—if you let it.” Listener Challenge This week, block off 30 minutes and reflect: What's your unique value that no AI can replicate? How are you developing and showcasing that? What's one small action you can take to lean into your meta-talents? Start now, because the era of “good enough” is over. And your human edge has never been more powerful. If this episode resonated with you, share it with a fellow freelancer who's navigating the evolving AI landscape. And don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode packed with insights to help you earn more in less time… doing work you love.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training 00:00 The "Poppi" acquisition and winning by being different 00:30 Brands need agencies to help them “stand out” 01:30 Agency's role: From vendor to transformation partner 02:00 Transformative client results through positioning 02:50 Five tactics for agencies to help clients win differently 04:10 The "Hell Yes" framework for brand building Pepsi just dropped $2 billion to acquire Poppi. Let that sink in. A gut-health soda brand that didn't even exist a decade ago is now a multibillion-dollar player — without some bloated VC war chest or Super Bowl ads. Why? Because they didn't just sell a drink. They sold vitality without boredom. Just like Liquid Death isn't selling water. They're selling rebellion in a can. This matters to you because your agency clients are still playing the safe game. Bland branding. Forgettable messaging. Funnel tweaks and ad spend tricks. But the world doesn't reward better. It rewards different. And that's where you come in. Your Agency's Real Role You're not here to push pixels or track conversions. You're here to make your clients matter. To help them stop blending in and start building brands that get followed, shared, and loved. In this episode we'll break down exactly how to do that—with a proven playbook called the “HELL YES” Framework. But first, let's look at what these breakout brands got right. The Big Brand Lessons (You Should Be Using) Help Clients Define What They Believe in (And What They're Against). Poppi didn't sell soda. They sold gut health. Liquid Death didn't sell water. They sold identity. Brands that break out don't try to be better. They choose to be louder about what they stand for. Build a Brand that Lives Beyond The Product. Help them create their presence in culture. What's the founders point of view? What's the audience they want to turn into a community. From reels & TikTok make sure that message is out there. Package. Reframe offer as outcomes, not service. Teach them to Create Demand. Help them post scroll-stopping content that really builds trust from someone that'll want to learn more. Help Them Become Known for Something. Your clients will need a signature method that is repeatable and has a catchy name. That's how they'll own a category. The HELL YES Framework (How to Build Brands That Get Followed) Here's the full breakdown from Jason's playbook: H – Hook with a Belief Choose a bold POV. Rally people around something real. Don't try to please everyone—draw a line. E – Elevate the Outcome Sell transformation, not tasks. Rename and reframe. “The Visibility Engine” beats “SEO setup” every time. L – Lead with Culture Get them living where the culture lives—Reels, TikTok, Shorts. Turn content into a vibe. L – Lock in Their Framework Give their offer a name. A method. A repeatable process. That's how they own a category. Y – Yield to Simplicity Kill the fluff. Be painfully clear. One offer. One CTA. No jargon. E – Engineer the Experience Make onboarding and delivery unforgettable. Brand the process. Delight people. S – Share the Wins Loud Don't just toss out metrics—tell the story. Make the transformation the headline. Real Talk: You're Sitting on the Solution You've already got the skills. The strategy. The services. What your agency really needs is a sharper positioning and a clearer method — just like Zach and Jack did. Whether you're stuck pitching work that doesn't excite you anymore or just tired of clients treating you like a vendor, the shift starts here. And if you're ready to build a brand that people don't just buy from, but believe in… Let's stop chasing better. Start building bolder. Because when your agency leads movements, not just marketing—you become unforgettable. Agency Mastermind Still feel like you're winging it? You're not alone. Most agency owners hit a plateau because they're stuck in the business, buried in decisions, and disconnected from people who get it. The agencies killing it and scaling faster found out they needed to be in the right room.

Let's unpack the heart of attention, addiction, autopilot and self-sabotage. This episode is a deep dive into the junk food of thought: addictive mental loops that hijack your attention, and keep you stuck repeating the same boring patterns — again and again and again. We talk about why your thoughts are like badly designed software, why addiction makes your brain less creative, and how to actually take back control. From scrolling email to self-sabotaging loops, it turns out the enemy isn't the internet… it's your untrained mind. Reframe addiction as a self-inflicted cognitive handicap Break the loop with “internal repulsion” instead of willpower Interrupt the mental chatter that blocks creativity You'll never look at your own thoughts the same way again.

Is it ADHD… or something else entirely? This episode dives into one of the most debated topics in parenting and child psychology. Dr Justin Coulson answers a heartfelt question from a concerned parent: Should I pursue a formal ADHD diagnosis for my child — or are there better first steps to take? If you're feeling overwhelmed by symptoms, advice, and conflicting opinions, this conversation will help you slow down, zoom out, and see your child through a compassionate, research-informed lens. KEY POINTS: ADHD diagnosis rates are rising — but is it always the right label? Some children may be diagnosed for what is actually normal developmental variation or environmental mismatch. ADHD-like symptoms may be a child’s way of trying to meet three unmet psychological needs: Connection (relatedness) Capability (competence) Control (autonomy) Neuroinflammation is an emerging and overlooked factor in ADHD symptoms. Developmental readiness matters — an 8-year-old’s brain is still undergoing major executive function development. Rather than trying to eliminate stress, parents can help children build capacity to handle challenge (a growth mindset). Medication might help some, but it’s not the first (or only) answer. Diagnosis should be thoughtful, multi-faceted, and whole-child focused. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: "Difference doesn't mean disorder. Development is not a race." – Dr Justin Coulson RESOURCES MENTIONED: The Parenting Revolution by Dr Justin Coulson Happy Families – for more articles, podcast episodes, and parenting resources Self-Determination Theory & Growth Mindset research Parenting ADHD [The Course] ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Delay formal diagnosis (unless impairment is severe) and give time for development. Audit the environment for connection, competence, and autonomy — is it need-thwarting or need-supportive? Support physical health: Prioritise sleep, unprocessed foods, and movement. Explore reducing neuroinflammation through lifestyle. Teach a growth mindset: Use the word “yet”, encourage effort, and model learning through challenges. Reframe behaviours: Daydreaming may signal creativity, not dysfunction. Risk-taking may show courage and capability-seeking. Task resistance may be about autonomy, not defiance. If pursuing assessment, choose a clinician who understands development, context, and the whole child — not just a checklist. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this raw and revealing coaching session, Christine Hassler coaches Bridget, a woman navigating the painful territory of jealousy, comparison, and unmet desires. Bridget candidly opens up about her long-standing struggles with being single and childless—two areas that trigger deep feelings of not being “good enough” when she sees others with what she longs for. The coaching session explores not only the emotional roots of these feelings but also how deeply ingrained patterns from childhood can skew how we view ourselves in relation to others. Christine guides Bridget to understand that jealousy isn't a flaw—it's a signal. A signal that we may be projecting our own unlived qualities onto others, which can be used for self-discovery and healing when viewed with compassion. Through tools like “positive projection” and reparenting, Christine helps Bridget shift her lens from lack and comparison to abundance and self-trust. This episode is essential listening for anyone who finds themselves stuck in comparison loops, struggling with envy, or feeling left behind by life's timelines. If you've ever looked at someone else's life and thought, “They must know something I don't,” this one is for you. Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you often compare your life to others and feel like you're falling short? Do you feel left out or behind when it comes to relationships, family, or success? Is jealousy something you were taught—something modeled in your family of origin? Are you ready to reclaim your sense of self-worth and step into greater self-trust? Key Insights and A-HAs: Jealousy can serve as a tool for growth when reframed as a positive projection. Often, the qualities we admire in others are ones we haven't fully owned in ourselves. Chronic comparison stems from childhood imprints, often passed down from caregivers. Confidence in decision-making strengthens our relationship with ourselves and builds autonomy. You are not less than anyone else—there is no secret formula that others have and you don't. How to Get Over It & On With It: Practice positive projection: When you're jealous of someone, ask yourself, “What qualities am I seeing in them that I haven't yet recognized in myself?” Build self-trust by making confident, embodied choices—even small ones. Flex your decision-making muscle. Reframe comparison as separation. Instead, use it to connect with the qualities you desire to cultivate in yourself. Visualize removing the “comparison glasses” and choosing to see through the lens of truth, where your worth is not tied to others' outcomes. Work with a therapist or coach to reparent the younger parts of you that never got to fully develop autonomy or self-approval.

This episode explores why the most transformative growth happens after the end of an event (like conferences, masterminds or retreats) - and how to harness that energy intentionally. I just got back from the Flavor Media Summit in Savannah, and wow—what a whirlwind! Today I'm sharing from the heart while everything is still fresh. It's so easy to think the big work happens in the room—at the conference, on the Zoom call, during the retreat—but the truth is, the real transformation begins after you leave. I'll walk you through what that means and how to take meaningful steps forward once the initial energy fades. Action Plan: 1 - Pause and Reflect: Take intentional time to slow down and journal on what moved you the most from the experience. 2 - Choose One Anchor Action: Pick a single powerful idea and commit to it—don't overwhelm yourself with too many goals at once. 3 - Follow Up on Relationships: Reach out to people you connected with and nurture those new or deepened relationships. 4 - Protect Your Post-Room Energy: Carve out space to stay aligned and avoid tasks that drain your soul. 5 - Reframe the Crash: If you feel depleted, it's a sign of growth—honor that expansion instead of judging it.

What if your need to prove your worth is actually the wound you're here to heal? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Thema Bryant to explore how trauma, people-pleasing, and overgiving often shape our sense of identity — especially for service providers. We talk about how many of us were taught to earn love by abandoning ourselves and how to begin rewriting that story from a place of truth and agency. Dr. Thema shares powerful insights on setting boundaries, reclaiming joy through play, and embodying self-worth that isn't based on what you achieve. We also touch on the importance of honoring your nervous system and creating relationships where you're allowed to show up fully — without needing to fix or perform. If you've ever felt burnt out, disconnected, or stuck in old patterns, this conversation is a reminder that healing starts with remembering your inherent worth. === GUEST LINKS https://drthema.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.thema/ https://www.facebook.com/ThemaBryantDavis === Have you watched our previous episode with Matt + Joy Kahn?
