Episode Summary:This week, Michelle dares you to do something most people avoid — embrace the unknown.After 17 years in construction, Michelle opens up about what it's really like to walk away from stability and step into filmmaking with no guarantees. She shares how reading about Stoicism helped her stop waiting for certainty and start trusting action instead.Backed by neuroscience, this episode breaks down why our brains panic when things feel uncertain — and how leaning into discomfort can literally rewire you for resilience.You'll also hear from two past She Who Dares Wins guests who've lived this dare in their own lives:

Rejection and burnout recovery start with identity, not achievement. In this episode, learn how Identity-Level Recalibration helps you reframe failure as feedback, pain as purpose, and rejection as the setup for your next becoming.Rejection hurts — not just emotionally, but neurologically. When failure strikes, your brain processes the pain the same way it registers physical injury. That's why the sting of “no” can feel like impact. But the difference between collapse and clarity lies in how you interpret that pain.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks how Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) transforms the pain of rejection into refinement. Drawing from neuroscience research on the anterior cingulate cortex and real-life application, she explains how ILR retrains the nervous system to interpret pain as feedback — not finality.When your identity is rooted in performance, every setback feels personal. But when your identity is anchored in truth, pain becomes information. You start to see rejection not as failure, but as direction — a refining process that strengthens what's authentic and releases what's not.You'll also hear the story of Sara Blakely, the founder of Spanx, who used every “no” as data. Her ability to convert rejection into innovation wasn't about resilience; it was about reframing. By treating failure as feedback, she turned obstacles into clarity — proof that the pain that exposed her also grew her.This isn't another mindset tactic or productivity hack. ILR is the root-level recalibration that allows high-capacity humans to lead from peace, not performance — to interpret pain through identity, not insecurity.Today's Micro Recalibration:“Where have I taken rejection personally instead of purposefully?” Write this down. Then remind yourself: “This pain isn't proof I'm off course. It's refining who I'm becoming.”If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Resilience isn't built in moments of ease, it's forged through challenge, curiosity, and the courage to grow. In this episode, Heather Brilliant, CEO of Diamond Hill Capital Management, shares how 38 rejection letters early in her career became the foundation for a life of resilience, curiosity, and courageous leadership. With experience spanning Bank of America, Morningstar, and now Diamond Hill, she reveals how staying open to feedback, to failure, and to change has fueled her growth as a leader and innovator in investment management. Her journey from aspiring lawyer to CEO is a story of perseverance and adaptability, proving that leadership isn't about following a straight path, it's about learning, evolving, and leading with both humility and conviction. Tune in to learn how resilience is built through feedback, why curiosity drives clarity, and what it means to lead with openness in a world that never stops changing.

In this powerful episode, Heather Creekmore continues October’s "Fear Free Fall” series by digging deep into the often-hidden fear of rejection and how it influences our lives. She unpacks how perfectionism and people-pleasing are tightly related to our need to feel accepted and loved. Through personal stories, relatable examples, and biblical truth, Heather unravels the underlying self-protective strategies we adopt—and how the gospel offers real freedom and grace. Key Topics Covered: What is the Fear of Rejection?Heather explores how this fear drives us and manifests as perfectionism and people-pleasing. She explains that these are self-protective strategies formed by our desire for secure love, belonging, and worth. Perfectionism:Often, we think, “If I get it right, then I’ll be enough.” Heather shares a personal story from college when a single missed typo made her feel immense shame, showing how perfectionism can lead to exhaustion and shame rather than peace. People-Pleasing:The fear that “If I make everyone happy, I’ll be safe.” Heather discusses how people-pleasing is not true peacekeeping or biblical peacemaking and how it can even impact our ability to follow God’s call if the opinions of others control us. Where Does This Come From?Heather highlights how these tendencies usually aren’t intentional—they’re often formed in childhood, at school, or through life experiences that taught us we’d be safer if we kept everyone happy or never made mistakes. How It Affects Others:Unchecked, perfectionism and people-pleasing can also lead us to have unrealistic expectations of others, continuing the cycle for those around us. The Gospel’s Answer:True freedom is found not in earning love and acceptance from people (or God), but in embracing grace. Heather reminds us that Jesus took on ultimate rejection so we can be fully accepted by God, no matter how we perform. A Challenge to Listeners:Heather encourages us to check our motives—are we striving for approval from people or resting in God’s approval? She challenges listeners to shift their perspective from a “people-big, God-small” view to a “God-big, people-small” mindset for greater confidence and peace. Memorable Quotes: “Perfectionism is a fear of inadequacy dressed up as excellence.” “People pleasing is not biblical peacemaking—it’s a form of self-protection.” “You can never be perfect or please everyone, but you are already fully accepted in Jesus.” “Freedom comes when you realize you can’t earn grace—it's a gift.” Resources & Next Steps: Visit heathercreekmore.com for free resources, courses, coaching, and Heather’s books Sign up for the free 10-day encouragement email series!

Rupture without Repair, and the Discomfort of Being Misunderstood   In this deeply personal episode, Patricia (she/her) unpacks the fallout from a neighborhood rupture and the painful loss of community connection. Through the lens of being autistic and AuDHD, she explores rejection sensitivity, communication breakdowns, friendship trauma, and why repair isn't always possible.

This conversation is raw, tender, and validating for anyone who has struggled with being misunderstood as a neurodivergent person.

Emotionally, feeling misunderstood and powerless is really hard.” "You have a right to speak up." "Not all friendships last forever." "Life is messy. Friendships are messy." “Body doubling is such a beautiful way to borrow someone else's nervous system to regulate.” “Sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. It's how you're wired.

In this heartfelt episode, Kelly opens up about navigating relationships in a time of deep political division. She shares how differing views have tested some of her closest connections and what it means to lead with empathy, compassion, and understanding when opinions clash. Through honest reflections and personal stories, Kelly shares how we can bridge divides, have healthier conversations, and see beyond labels. Because even in disagreement, love, respect, and perspective can still coexist. [1:16] When Views Divide “There are some close relationships of mine that have been, I guess, torn apart in a sense because of different political views. And I hate it. It makes things very uncomfortable for everybody.” [2:33] The Power in My Voice “I'm a privileged white American woman, but I do know what's going on. And I have compassion towards those who are going through the things that the laws are restricting them of.” [6:41] Seeing Both Sides “If someone were watching my activity on social media, they'd probably be like, ‘Is she a Democrat? Is she a Republican?' because I can understand both.” [8:09] Connection Through Conversation “I want to encourage you to be able to have healthy conversations with your friends- coming from a place of respect, right? We just want to feel seen and we want to feel heard.” [14:47] Debating Ideas with Charlie Kirk “I listened to one full conversation regarding the Second Amendment and I honestly agreed with some of his thoughts.” [20:46] Beauty of Acceptance “Maybe they're only meant to be in your life for what is it? It's a reason, a season, or a lifetime… But I would rather you try to love everything about that person and just accept them for who they are.” [25:36] Heart Over Ego “Let's just create more love. Love wins. Act and think from a heart space. Hold space for other people's thoughts and opinions.

When Innocence Feels Like Rejection: How Codependent Mothers Misread Their Children What happens when a child's innocent comment gets filtered through the lens of an unhealthy, codependent mom versus a healthy, emotionally attuned mom? The difference can shape not only the child's self-worth but also the generational cycle of codependency. In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, Breakthrough Life Coach and bestselling author, unpacks how unhealed wounds distort a mother's perception of her child's needs and words. An emotionally unhealthy mother, trapped in her own unresolved pain, may perceive an innocent statement like “I wish I could play with you more” as a personal attack—triggering shame, defensiveness, or withdrawal. A healthy mother, however, sees the same comment for what it is: a child's bid for love and connection. This powerful contrast reveals why addressing codependency is not just self-work—it's generational work. If left unchecked, codependency programs children to feel responsible for others' feelings, abandon their own needs, and repeat the same painful patterns in adulthood. Lisa shows you how to break the cycle by teaching: Why codependent programming distorts reality and causes misinterpretation of innocent words. The neuroscience behind why trauma survivors often personalize others' emotions. How healthy mothers validate their child's truth without collapsing into shame or defensiveness. Why breaking free from codependency is the single most important gift you can pass to your children. This episode is a must-listen if you: Grew up with a parent who made you feel guilty for your feelings. Struggle with people-pleasing or fearing rejection. Want to stop codependency from spilling into your parenting or relationships. Are ready to see how your healing ripples into future generations. ✨ Pro tip: Awareness is the first step. When you learn to recognize these patterns, you reclaim your ability to create healthy connections and stop carrying wounds that were never yours to bear. Begin Your Healing Journey: Lisa introduces her signature 12 Week Breakthrough Method—a trauma-informed, neuroscience-based coaching program designed for adult children of narcissistic, neglectful, or emotionally immature parents. Inside the program, you'll discover: Brain retraining techniques rooted in neuroscience. Inner child healing and self-concept reorganization. Journaling prompts and assessments to increase self-awareness. Tools to stop subconscious self-abandonment and live authentically. How to integrate shadow work and break toxic generational patterns.

Rejection hurts. Of course, you don’t want to be turned down or ostracized in any way. People who have felt the pain of rejection often avoid situations where they feel they won’t be accepted. Yet, going into something with the expectation that it will happen the same way as it has in the past is […]

Fear has a way of disguising itself as logic, comfort, or even “being realistic.” Yet underneath it all, fear quietly dictates our choices, limits our potential, and keeps us trapped in patterns we know we've outgrown. In this episode of The Motivation with Brendon Burchard Podcast, Brendon breaks down the four hidden fears that keep people from taking bold action and building a life of purpose. You'll learn: Fear of Ruin, Rejection, and Regret: How to stop catastrophizing outcomes and start seeing every experience as progress, not punishment. The Real Fear Behind Responsibility: Why most people don't actually fear failure—they fear success and the weight that comes with it.

Guest: Dia Bondi Guest Bio: Dia Bondi is a Communications Catalyst for high-impact people. In her private coaching and programs, she works with C-level leaders, VC-backed founders, and ambitious professionals, helping them find their voice and lead with it. Her workshops and talks are hosted by corporations including Quartz, Salesforce, Google's X-team, and Dropbox. In global sport, she helped Rio de Janeiro secure the 2016 Summer Olympics. After attending auctioneering school for fun, she translated the techniques she learned into a program that prepares ambitious professionals, and especially women, to ask for more and leave nothing on the table, called Ask Like an Auctioneer. She's been featured on CNBC Make It, Forbes, and Fast Company. Her book, Ask Like an Auctioneer: How to Ask for More and Get It, is available now.​   Key Points: Dia's Backstory & Career Path Started her career in fitness, where she loved helping people feel powerful and embodied. Then, transitioned into training and development (professional development) after college. She discovered her passion for storytelling and communication while observing a workshop for finance leaders. Dia founded Dia Bondy Communications in 2009 to help leaders and VC-backed founders communicate effectively in high-stakes moments.   "Ask Like an Auctioneer" Concept Inspired by her side work as a fundraising auctioneer. The key principle: ask big enough to get a “no”, because a “no” signals you've reached the upper limit of what's possible. In business, people often limit their asks based on what they think they can get, leaving money and opportunity on the table. Instead of selling to the first yes, push further to uncover maximum value.   Overcoming Fear of Asking Fear of rejection keeps people from asking boldly. Many assume rejection damages relationships, but often it doesn't. Leaders should teach teams that discomfort (the Zofo—Zone of Freaking Out) is a signal of courage and potential growth. Reframe rejection: it's information about value, not a judgment of personal worth.   Lessons from Auctioneering for Business & Sales · Price = a reflection of value, not worth. The same item can sell for vastly different amounts depending on the audience. · Know your “reserve.” Like an auctioneer's minimum acceptable price, know your bottom line before asking. · People are irrational. Decisions are often emotional, even in data-driven environments—so storytelling is critical.   Four Types of Asks That Drive Growth 1.     Money – dollars, budgets, contracts. 2.     Influence – visibility, access to networks, platforming yourself. 3.     Authority – positioning yourself to make important decisions. 4.     Balance – aligning deals and clients with the kind of work you actually want.   Why People Struggle with Asking Fear of rejection. Lack of clarity on what to ask for and when to ask. Sometimes people make asks that are too small, too vague, or to the wrong audience.   Framework for a Strategic Ask (first 4 of 6 steps) Define your main concrete goal. Identify the next big move toward that goal. Determine the ask that advances that move. Ensure the ask is big enough to risk rejection. Storytelling Framework: “Blocker Buster” What your audience wants. What's blocking them from achieving it? How do you remove the blockers? Your ask (to move them forward).   Big Takeaways Asking boldly is a skill that can be learned. The most powerful ask live in the Zofo—the zone of freaking out. Rejection is not failure; it's valuable feedback about what the other side values. Asking strategically, with courage and clarity, maximizes opportunities for growth, influence, and alignment.   Guest Links: Connect on LinkedInCon Connect on Instagram https://www.diabondi.com/salesology Download The Powerful Ask Plan, a free tool to help you design a strategic ask.     About Salesology®: Conversations with Sales Leaders Download your free gift, The Salesology® Vault.

In this episode, Kelly discusses with Sydnee Falkner the raw realities of life after reality TV  from navigating newfound attention to embracing authenticity, self-worth, and growth beyond the spotlight. Sydnee opens up about what it's like to be recognized from Netflix's Million Dollar Secret, how fame has reshaped her perspective, and the deeper lessons she's learned about confidence, connection, and enjoying the process. [3:44] The Social Aspect "You're gonna form alliances; it's not gonna be you versus anybody." [11:05] The Reality After Reality TV "‘So, we saw you on Netflix,' and I'm just like, it's the first time in my work environment this has happened." [15:46] See Me Beyond the Screen “All you have to do is look through my social media to see who I really am, or get a better idea, or have a conversation with me." [23:30] Unapologetically Me “It's exhausting always trying to play small for other people to feel comfortable, and I realized that is not my responsibility.” [34:53] Both Are Me “Here is what I look like completely relaxed, and here is what I look like in my bikini pose or something because our bodies really do have so much variability.”  [43:05] Open Doors and Open Heart “I love having my door opened for me. I love it. It makes me feel good. It makes me feel special.”  [48:32] Love Needs Partnership “Love is not enough.

In this candid conversation, couples and sex therapist Dr. Nicole Van Ness, LMFT joins Dr. Marianne to explore how developmental trauma shapes attachment styles, body image, sexual desire, and day-to-day intimacy. Nicole explains what developmental trauma is, how it differs from or overlaps with complex PTSD, and why chronic misattunement in childhood can echo through adult relationships, stress responses, and self-regulation. You will hear practical, compassionate strategies to rebuild safety, agency, and connection in your body and with your partner. What You'll Learn Developmental trauma 101: How repeated misattunement and lack of repair in childhood influence trust, safety, and the nervous system in adulthood. Attachment and sex: How anxious and avoidant patterns can create desire pursuer–withdrawer cycles, sensitivity to rejection, and misaligned invitations for sex. Body image and pleasure: Why self-loathing, dissociation, and low interoceptive awareness can shift sex from pleasure to performance and how to return to embodied enjoyment. Masturbation as self-care: Ways self-pleasure can restore agency, support trauma recovery, and improve partnered intimacy through curiosity, consent, and pacing. Desire discrepancy: How to reframe a declined invitation as information rather than personal rejection and how to stay connected when desire levels differ. Pelvic and sexual pain: How chronic stress and hypervigilance can contribute to issues like vaginismus and pelvic floor tension and why relaxation and safety matter. Neurodivergence and RSD: Tools for identifying rejection sensitive dysphoria in the moment and naming it with your partner to reduce spirals and repair faster. Eroticism and aliveness: Gentle, stepwise practices that rebuild embodiment and pleasure, from sensing music and movement to sharing desire with a partner. Key Takeaways Trauma adaptations are creative survival strategies. They deserve respect while you learn new options that fit your current life. Pleasure requires enough safety, agency, and self-worth to receive and enjoy it. These ingredients can be rebuilt. Honest conversations about boundaries, pacing, and permission support intimacy more than duty or performance. Small, consistent body-based practices help restore interoception, reduce hypervigilance, and widen your window of tolerance during sex and affection. Gentle Practices to Try Name your nervous system state: Am I keyed up, shut down, or settled. Choose regulation first. Solo exploration with care: Treat self-pleasure like self-nurture. Slow it down. Focus on sensation, comfort, and curiosity. Low-stakes embodiment: Sway to a favorite song, notice breath, enjoy soft fabrics, or feel grass under your feet. Build from neutral to pleasant sensations. Clear invitations and exits: Ask for what you want. Offer options. Affirm that no is welcome. Agree on easy ways to pause or change course. Rejection reframe: A no is information about timing or capacity, not your worth. Validate disappointment and stay connected. Terms and Resources Mentioned Developmental Model of Couples Therapy by Pete Pearson and Ellyn Bader Complex PTSD conversations influenced by Bessel van der Kolk Codependency concepts associated with Pia Mellody Cultural touchpoints about sexuality education and agency referenced in feminist media history About Our Guest Dr. Nicole Van Ness, LMFT is a couples and sex therapist who practices virtually in Texas, California, and Florida.

We start October 13th

When we have physical pain, it's difficult not to get frightened of doctors, or resentful of life itself or the body.  When we're not acknowledged, or we believe someone's blaming us for our behavior, we suffer.  Who are we without our stories, and also not falling into passivity or despair? Join a live self-inquiry session inspired by The Work of Byron Katie. We explore how uninvestigated “stories” create suffering—especially around doctors and bad news, physical pain & migraines, being judged or rejected, and needing others to be happy. Through the 4 Questions (“Is it true?” etc.) and gentle turnarounds, participants notice how fear-thoughts like “I don't want this,” “Something's wrong,” “They're rejecting me,” and “I need my partner to be happy” amplify stress—and how clarity returns when we question them. What you'll see: Fear of doctors and “they might find something wrong” “I don't want this pain” (migraines, resistance, fight mode) Courtroom moment: “We didn't cause this” and the sting of not being acknowledged People-pleasing, being “the good one,” and the fear of being seen as “bad” Turnarounds that soften shame, panic, and urgency—and restore compassion If you're curious about self-inquiry, anxiety relief, or how to meet pain and judgment without collapse, this session offers practical, real-world examples. 00:00 – Welcome & setup: noticing a stressful “story” 04:30 – Fear of doctors: “They may find something wrong” 12:40 – “I don't want this” (physical pain & migraine resistance) 22:10 – Courtroom story: “Acknowledge we didn't cause this” 33:20 – Rejection fear: “They don't accept me when I'm emotional” 43:05 – How we react when we believe it (fight, hide, obsess) 54:00 – Who would I be without the thought? 1:03:00 – Turnarounds: to self, other, and opposites 1:14:30 – Pain as messenger; being your own compassionate caregiver 1:22:00 – Closing reflections & next steps Grace Bell, facilitator of The Work, assists people to identify and question their stressful ways of looking at life.  She offers Year of Inquiry, a vibrant membership community of inquirers Sept-June each year. Learn more about Year of Inquiry at https://workwithgrace.com/year-of-inquiry Grace also has a special love for those suffering from eating issues including disordered eating (disordered thinking) of all kinds--having suffered from this behavior and thought/feeling process herself and finding an unshakable peace within around eating, food, health and behaviors with eating.  Grace works with all kinds of compulsions, habits and addictions as they are all the same thing: a pull to some behavior, substance or activity in order to help us with our stressful feelings and thoughts. As Byron Katie offers us (founder of The Work); when we believe what we think, it creates unnecessary suffering. When we question what we think, we feel lighter and less serious about what is. We even begin to laugh. We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving.  In the public sessions on this youtube channel, we have all-group inquiry sessions called First Friday Inquiry, we have interviews with practitioners of The Work, we have Eating Peace videos (on the eating peace playlist) and we have individual sessions in The Work by courageous people willing to be recorded for Peace Talk podcast and this channel. Thanks to everyone involved in what is shared here on this channel, as it is great service to others in the world who find their way here and who are curious about life without "believing" thought all the time.   In all-group sessions and solo sessions, we begin with a judgment...and move into the four questions and turnarounds. Willingness to be real and honest with your thinking is the first powerful step in The Work.  No one ever has to share when attending Friday Inquiry, and thank you when you do.   For the Work With Grace programs and more information, and to get on the Grace Notes mailing list for updates and sharing of all kinds around The Work, please visit www.workwithgrace.com To receive notice of Eating Peace programs, videos and vlog posts, visit www.workwithgrace.com/eating-peace and join the mailing list.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 178 Characterizing what happened in Germany between the end of World War I and the end of World War II as the "Nazi Experiment" allows us to take a close look at what the Nazis did in the apparent attempt to solve some serious societal problems. Of course, the Nazi State had its conception of citizenship, as would any state, but rather than breaking down its population into "citizens" and "aliens," Hitler wanted there to be three statuses: German citizens, subjects of the state, and foreigners (or aliens). In the shortest chapter of Mein Kampf, he makes the case that birthright citizenship and naturalization "by paperwork" are "insane" policies that "poison" the nation. Curiously, this strange characterization has appeared on the "New Right" (Woke Right) recently as well. In a recent piece on The Blaze, "Auron MacIntyre" explains that "Paperwork Americans Are Not Your Countrymen" (https://web.archive.org/web/20250807204648/https://www.theblaze.com/columns/opinion/paperwork-americans-are-not-your-countrymen/ ). In this episode of the Nazi Experiment series of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads both of these documents to shed further light on the ominous parallels between then and now. Join him to learn more and unmask yet another likely operation against our republic. Latest from New Discourses Press!
