What if every time you said "I'll try," you were actually announcing you just weren't going to do it?Carla Ondrasik breaks down why "trying" sabotages your goals and why your brain literally can't process the word.

We’re back live January 19, 2026. In the meantime… Science has officially lost the plot—apparently, rubbing men’s underarm sweat on your lips can help you relax, boost your mood, and even regulate your cycle. A new study from the University of Pennsylvania has gone viral, and we’re diving into the wildest details. Could this be the ultimate (and grossest) stress reliever, or just another bizarre internet trend?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Most people don't fail because of lack of effort, motivation, or discipline — they fail because of a belief they don't even know they have. In this episode, Paul Alex sits down with Shelly Lefkoe, co-founder of the Lefkoe Institute and one of the world's leading experts on eliminating limiting beliefs. With over 35 years of experience, Shelly breaks down how unconscious beliefs are formed, why positive thinking doesn't work, and how the stories you absorbed early in life may still be controlling your success today. You'll hear real examples of how beliefs like “I'm not good enough,” “mistakes are bad,” and “success requires suffering” silently drive procrastination, burnout, fear, and self-sabotage — even in high achievers and entrepreneurs. Shelly also explains the critical difference between behavior patterns and beliefs, and why lasting change only happens when beliefs are eliminated at the root. If you've ever felt stuck repeating the same cycles, pushing harder without real progress, or wondering why you know what to do but still don't do it — this conversation will hit home.

This episode is the wake-up call your people pleasing, burnout prone, high achieving self didn't even realize you needed. Because what if feeling overwhelmed isn't a you problem at all? What if you've just been trained to put everyone else first? Today we're unpacking the real reason people pleasing feels automatic — and why it hits ambitious women the hardest.

We talk about: chronic burnout resentment identity loss and how over-functioning keeps you stuck in cycles you didn't choose Because being the strong friend might look admirable… but it's quietly draining your energy, your confidence, and your peace. Ericka breaks down the subtle signs — like overexplaining, guilt resting, emotional shape-shifting, and taking responsibility for everyone's feelings — that reveal whether self-abandonment has become your default mode. You'll learn my signature tools, including: the 10-Second Pause the Soft No the Power of the Period first-30-minute protection calendar boundaries and the peace test These are simple, realistic self-care practices designed for ambitious women who want to honor their capacity without guilt.

In this episode of Truth Works, Jessica Neal sits down with stress physiologist and author Dr. Rebecca Heiss to dismantle everything you've been taught about stress, fear, and burnout. If you've ever thought, “I'm stressed, this is bad, I need to make it go away,” this conversation will flip your entire mental model.Rebecca explains why stress is a feature, not a bug, and why the belief that stress is “killing you” is often more dangerous than the stress itself. She breaks down how our cave-brain still thinks every hard conversation at work is a tiger about to eat us, why helplessness isn't learned – it's our default setting, and how to “invite the tiger in for tea” instead of trying (and failing) to shut it out.Jessica opens up about panic attacks, stage fright in front of thousands, and the pressure to always “have it figured out,” while Rebecca shows how to turn that same fear into fuel, especially at work and in leadership. They dig into:Why the most meaningful, purpose-filled moments of your life are also the most stressfulHow to reframe anxiety as energy and excitement, not a personal failingWhy parents are often less happy but more fulfilledHow social media hijacks our need for acceptance and amplifies shameThe truth about burnout, being “tired but wired,” and Rebecca's “disaster diary”What great leaders should actually do with their own stress so they don't infect their teamsIf you feel guilty for resting, terrified of slowing down, or secretly convinced you're an imposter who should “already know all the things,” this episode will hit uncomfortably close in the best possible way. You'll walk away with a new lens: stress as your competitive advantage, not your enemy.

Rebecca & Kelee are back with a mix of rants and reflections. We start with the nonsense of corporate jargon and how people overcomplicate simple things with confusing lingo.

Why do so many "nice guys" struggle with confidence, boundaries, and resentment? Because they've been taught that anger is dangerous, shameful, or weak — and they've been suppressing it for years. In this episode, I break down why repressing anger doesn't make you a better man — it makes you resentful, anxious, depressed, and, eventually… explosive. You'll learn how repressed anger creates passive-aggressive behavior, self-loathing, and even destructive outbursts. More importantly, I'll show you how to express anger healthily — without hurting people, and without losing control. Anger isn't the problem. It's power. It's fuel. It's the emotional fire that helps you stand up for yourself, set boundaries, and live with courage. And if you've been people-pleasing your whole life, learning to express anger is one of the most powerful transformations you'll ever experience. ⚠️ If you feel like you're stuck, emotionally numb, or constantly walking on eggshells, this episode will give you a way out.

Do you feel like your mind is a constant battleground? In this powerful episode, Lindsey Maestas dives deep into the reality of how negative thoughts, lies from the enemy, and habitual unhealthy patterns can physically impact your health and happiness. She discusses how anxious attachment and unchecked cognitive distortions like catastrophizing or black-and-white thinking can trap you in a cycle of stress and illness, and strengthen the addiction of negativity through neural pathways.  Lindsey shares how living out an active faith, creating new thought patterns, and focusing on our own personal growth--rather than blameshifting--can change everything. She calls you up to: Understand the Mind-Body Connection: Understand how chronic stress and negative emotions create real physical symptoms.
