In this powerful episode, Jason and Lauren Vallotton explore the quiet, often unnoticed habit of self-betrayal—the moments when we say “yes” to others while saying “no” to ourselves. Whether it's to avoid conflict, gain approval, or protect a fragile connection, self-abandonment can masquerade as kindness while silently eroding trust, peace, and authenticity.Jason and Lauren unpack the mindsets that often drive this behavior—like the belief that it's selfish to have needs, or that disappointing others is dangerous. With wisdom, compassion, and real-life stories, they offer a roadmap back to honest boundaries, emotional integrity, and deeper connection with both self and others.In This Episode, They Discuss:What self-betrayal looks like in daily life and relationshipsHow people-pleasing and performance mindsets take rootThe difference between peacekeeping and true peaceCore beliefs that lead to self-abandonment (“If I say no, I'll be rejected”)Why honoring your limits is essential to relational and spiritual healthPractical language and tools to say no with clarity and compassionReflection Questions:Where in your life have you been betraying your own needs to keep the peace?What fear is hiding underneath your yes?What would it look like to practice honest, courageous boundaries this week?Listen in and be reminded: You don't have to disappear to be loved.

If you've ever felt stuck in traditional roles or unsure how to create an equitable, empowered relationship, this conversation is your starting point.Topics include:Why vulnerability is a strength, not a weaknessThe unseen cost of the patriarchy for men and womenWhy men must lead in dismantling toxic normsThe blame-shame loop in relationshipsHow to start building emotional safety and communityTakeaway:It's not about blame—it's about responsibility.

March is a weird one. It's the start of spring, a time for new beginnings, but for host Caitlin Fisher, it's also a heavy traumaversary—marking seven years since leaving an abusive relationship. In this episode, Caitlin unpacks what healing looks like (spoiler: it's pretty messy), how trauma responses sneak into even the most mundane moments, and what it's like to be in a healthy relationship while still unlearning old survival patterns.TL;DR: Expect deep feels, a little self-compassion pep talk, and maybe even a “Wow, I thought it was just me” moment!
In this episode, I'm diving into a question that came up inside my six-month coaching and training program, Courage Lab 2.0. If you haven't checked it out yet, you totally should—people inside are seeing incredible results, making big moves, and getting a huge return on their investment.During one of our recent community Q&A calls, someone asked a really important question: What do you do when a donor who previously committed to giving a certain amount suddenly decides to give less? Maybe they cite political or economic uncertainty, or their priorities are shifting—either way, it puts you in a tough spot.I've seen this scenario play out many times, and there are two main ways to approach it. In this episode, I break down both paths and share how I navigate these conversations with boldness and leadership. Because here's the thing—this isn't a new phenomenon, and it's not going away. But as fundraisers and leaders, we have to step up, challenge the status quo, and advocate for the resources we need to do our work effectively.What we cover in this episode: How to respond when a donor changes their commitmentThe importance of getting curious before reactingWhy values clarification is key in donor relationshipsHow to position your organization as a top-performing investmentThe power of bold, direct conversations that hold donors accountableWhy now is the time to lead, not settle for lessIf you've ever had a donor change course on you, this episode will give you the mindset and strategy to handle it with confidence. It's time to lead with courage and make sure the best, most effective organizations—like yours—get the funding they deserve.Listen in, take notes, and let me know what resonates with you!Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?

In Twelve Step programs, the first step, as I understand it, is recognizing that we are powerless to heal alone.We cannot overcome addiction, trauma, or systemic oppression through sheer willpower or individual effort. Healing, recovery, and meaningful change require connection, support, and systems that foster growth.All true! But we should not make a virtue out of being powerless.Recognizing what is beyond your ability isn't the same as accepting that you are powerless to change. Powerlessness is, in fact, a protective response that disconnects us from our personal power.When we conflate protection with powerlessness, we risk internalizing the very dynamics that keep us trapped in authoritarian systems—whether in families, partnerships, workplaces, faith communities, or governments.Power-over systems create environments where speaking up feels dangerous, where challenging authority risks humiliation or exile. But no matter the system or oppression, we always retain what Right Use of Power methodology calls our personal power. And that's precisely why authoritarian structures work so hard to make us feel otherwise.Owning your personal power in an authoritarian system requires deep, intentional work. And we cannot do it alone.My guest today will introduce you to the types of power in the Right Use of Power framework and help you reconnect with your personal power so that you can stand firm and do hard, scary, necessary things.Dr. Amanda Aguilera currently serves as the Executive Director of the Right Use of Power Institute and a Trusted Advisor at The Ally Co. She has dedicated most of her career to helping people and organizations understand systems, conflict, and social power dynamics to create right relationship and a sense of belonging. She has a knack for making difficult conversations easier, complex ideas more accessible, and resistance more workable. Integrating power, contemplative practices, neurobiology, and restorative practices, she works by finding a balance of head and heart and facilitating the co-creation of strategic maps that lead us forward in a more equitable way.Listen to the full episode to hear:How the Right Use of Power framework gave Amanda language to understand and articulate powerWhy power itself is fundamentally neutralHow Right Use of Power reframes power as a dynamic and not a possessionBreaking down the six types of power from personal to universalWhy direct challenges to status power are so often destabilizing How undeveloped personal power leads people to do harm with their role and status powerWhy we have to become aware of how power exists in our relationshipsHow developing our personal power helps us to participate in the collective power that can actually challenge systemsHow leaders can foster healthy power differential relationshipsLearn more about Dr. Amanda Aguilera:Right Use of Power InstituteInstagram: @rightuseofpowerinstituteLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:EP 88: Right-Use-of-Power: Navigating Leadership Dynamics with Dr. Cedar BarstowEP 14: Consenting to Grief as a Leadership Practice with Dean Nelson, PhDBreathing Under Water: Spirituality and the Twelve Steps, Richard RohrAll About Love, bell hooksMarie BeechamAlt National Park ServiceFalling Back in Love with Being Human: Letters to Lost Souls, Kai Cheng ThomIndigo Girls - Closer to FinePoseThe Karate Kid Star Wars

Tis the season of manifesting deeper love and more aligned relationships. And as Lacy points out, mid-winter brings new light, new hope, and new growth. Whether you're happily single, searching for new love, or manifesting a closer relationship (or a million other versions of love!) this is the perfect time to let a little more light into your life. We love this day because while, yes, commercially there is a lot of programming, we consider it just the perfect time to look inward and reflect on all your relationships. This episode with Janelle, Lacy, and Jessica holds so many pearls of wisdom that will help you on whatever journey you find yourself on when it comes to manifesting love. When is a “spark” healthy versus a nervous system trigger? Are we speaking to ourselves internally with the love we are seeking? Are you falling for the Disney love myth?

“It works out for other people, but not for me.” “There's too much standing in my way to even start.” “I've done everything, so why don't I feel amazing? “ “I should settle for this. It's supposed to make me happy.”If any of this sounds familiar, this episode is going to rock you out of your rut and into a new mindset. One of abundance, freedom, and peace. Today we are joined by Coach Keren who helps break down the manifestation struggles unique to high achievers.Keren Eldad is an author, speaker and executive coach to high performers including Olympic athletes, politicians, Hollywood stars, supermodels, Special Forces operatives and serial entrepreneurs, and today Keren shares her story of extreme perceived “success” in all facets of life: a dreamy house, an executive suite at a high-paying job, and a marriage that looked picture-perfect. And yet all of these shiny achievements were disconnected to her truth and authenticity, which ultimately led to her rock bottom. Together Coach Keren and Jessica unpack the hidden traps of perfectionism, control, and overwork that sabotage manifestations. She talks about learning how to deeply surrender, trust, and realign with her true soul desires. Whether you're feeling restless in your current reality or forcing outcomes that won't stick, this episode is your guide to breaking free from the gilded cage and stepping into true abundance. **Trigger warning: mention of suicidal ideation at 00:12:40 through 00:12:52 In This Episode We Talk About:The unique manifestation challenges for high achieversWhy overachievers struggle with control and force in manifestationCoach Keren's rock-bottom moment and the radical shifts she madeThe importance of recognizing when your manifestations feel misalignedBreaking the mindset of scarcity and fear in career and relationshipsHow over-identifying with success keeps you stuck in force modeUnderstanding the difference between force, flow, and surrenderWhy overworking actually slows down manifestationHow trauma and resistance block manifestationsIdentifying signs that your body is guiding you away from something misalignedThe moment Keren made a leap of faith—and how it led to unexpected successOvercoming perfectionism and analysis paralysis in manifestationReframing anger as a tool for expansion instead of resistanceHow to break free from cycles of control and step into true ease THEMES / TIME STAMPS:Keren shares her journey of “having it all” yet feeling completely unfulfilled (00:08:55)The critical differences between force vs flow, and how overachievers may be blocking their own manifestations (00:23:15)Channelling anger in a constructive way and the connection to surrender and peace (00:40:05) Resources: Join our FREE Live Call with Lacy & JessicaHow to Stay Magnetic in 2025Wednesday, Jan 29th, 11 am PSTReplay available if you can't attend The Authenticity Challenge is LIVE!!Manifest the life you *actually* want!
