For so long, I shaped my life around who I thought I needed to be—checking the boxes, playing the roles, staying safe in the familiar. But deep down, something was always stirring: a quiet knowing that I was meant for more. In this episode, I'm inviting you into the sacred space between who you've been… and who you're becoming. We'll explore what it really means to step out of your Inner Critic's identity—the one built on perfection, control, and people-pleasing—and into the version of you who's wise, whole, and wildly free. ✨ If you've been feeling restless, like you're outgrowing the life you once worked so hard to build—this conversation is your invitation to stop performing and start returning to your truth. Listen now and begin the next chapter of your life rooted in power, presence, and your Authentic Self.   Your weekly reflection questions: What version of me have I been performing—and what truth have I been hiding underneath that role? Where in my life am I still letting my Inner Critic make the decisions—and what would shift if I chose from my Authentic Self instead? If I stopped waiting for permission, recognition, or certainty… what bold step would I take next?  

Do you often find yourself being your own toughest critic? Running a business as an interior designer requires resilience, but constantly focusing on what you haven't done perfectly can hold you back from reaching your true potential. In today's episode, I'm diving into why practicing self-compassion is one of the most powerful tools you can develop as a designer CEO.   Self-compassion isn't about letting yourself off the hook; it's about shifting your mindset to support yourself through challenges, setbacks, and mistakes. By embracing kindness and understanding toward yourself, you'll break free from perfectionism and quiet your inner critic. You'll discover how this approach not only helps you feel better but also increases your efficiency and problem-solving ability.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.desicreswell.com/145   For the resources mentioned in this episode, click here: https://www.desicreswell.com/resources   Click here to enroll in CEO Summer School: https://www.desiid.com/summerschool

We're Julietta and Graciela, and we're sooooo excited to invite you into our Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening chats, all served with a warm cup of cacao. You'll feel like one of the family during this podcast where we speak frankly, and humorously, about some of life's big questions. We share wisdom we've picked up along the way and wonder out loud about lots of life's mysteries. Whether we're diving deep into transformation, laughing at life's quirks, or simply talking about the weather (which is, like, a much bigger deal at this age, isn't it?!?), you get a front row seat to our sometimes crazy, mostly spiritual and always authentic lives. From sweat lodge ceremonies to sweaty teen socks, we cover it all. So, grab your favorite mug, fill it with cacao and join us for some profound laughter. Cacao Conversations is about empowering you to remember who you are and step into the life that feels authentically yours. How do you embrace imperfection in your healing journey? We've all been there—wanting to “get it right,” to heal perfectly, to check all the boxes and finally feel “done.” But healing isn't linear, and it definitely isn't perfect. In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to embrace imperfection as part of the journey. We talk about the messy, non-glamorous parts of healing that no one posts about on Instagram, the magic of showing up as you are, and the deep liberation that comes from letting go of unrealistic expectations. We'll share our personal stories, the missteps that taught us the most, and how we learned (and are still learning!) to love ourselves through every phase. If you've ever felt like you're “failing” at healing, this is your permission slip to breathe, laugh, and keep going. So pour your cacao, drop the pressure, and let's celebrate the beauty of being a perfectly imperfect work in progress—together. Your cup is ready. Your journey is waiting. Let's sip, chat, and transform—together. Find out more at https://www.bodyandsoulevents.love/ Hey! Thanks for listening!

Loving-kindness meditation, also called metta,  springs from a basic understanding of human nature: On one hand, we might truly believe that  compassion makes the world better—and on the other, we might struggle to offer it to ourselves and to others for various reasons.  Metta practices, like the one Dr. Emma Seppälä leads this week, offer a simple, structured way to help us  gently expand our capacity to both give and receive love.  As a bestselling author, Yale lecturer, and international keynote speaker, Emma Seppälä teaches executives at the Yale School of Management and is faculty director of the Yale School of Management's Women's Leadership Program. A psychologist and research scientist by training, her expertise is the science of happiness, emotional intelligence, and social connection. Her bestselling book The Happiness Track (HarperOne, 2016) has been translated into dozens of languages. Her new book is Sovereign (Hay House, 2024). Seppälä is also the Science Director of Stanford University's Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education.

EP297: Can I Trust Me to Show Up? In this episode, we take a close look at something we don't talk about enough: the quiet ways we drift from ourselves. We often pride ourselves on being reliable, supportive, and present for others—but what happens when we're not offering the same loyalty inward? This isn't about harsh self-criticism or impossible standards. It's about noticing the gap between what we say we want and what we actually follow through on when it comes to our own needs, boundaries, and truth. We explore why we tend to abandon ourselves in small ways and how that adds up over time—not because we're weak, but because we were taught to survive that way. This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about remembering how to listen, recommit, and rebuild the trust you've been craving from within. No drama. No shame. Just one small, self-honoring moment at a time.   Three Takeaways: 1.     There's a big difference between being dependable for others and being dependable for yourself. 2.     The small moments where you follow through—or don't—have a bigger impact than you think. 3.     Rebuilding self-trust doesn't require perfection, just consistent presence and gentle repair. Top of Form Bottom of Form    Every small promise you keep to yourself matters. That's how the healing begins.     Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

In today's episode, we're diving into a tough but important topic – the truth about being “skinny” and the impact of the SkinnyTok era.

Hey there! Welcome the the LDS Mission Podcast and to episode 213 - Navigating Tough Dynamics. Have you ever caught yourself labeling something as a problem—and suddenly it feels heavy, urgent, or unsolvable? In this episode, I share a powerful mindset shift that has helped me and so many missionaries I work with: what if it's not a problem... it's just a dynamic? Whether you're a missionary adjusting to a new transfer, a returned missionary navigating post-mission life, or a missionary mom experiencing a new phase of parenting, we all face tough dynamics that feel sticky or uncertain. This idea was inspired by a conversation with my daughter as she prepares to be the only child at home. Her tears, her worries, and her sadness reminded me how deeply our brains want to flag change as something scary. But viewing it as a dynamic—a situation in motion that we're learning to navigate—can create flexibility, empowerment, and grace for ourselves. I hope this episode helps you reframe some of the experiences you're having on the mission or in your life right now. Let's stop running into mental walls and start riding the waves of change. You were built for this. I believe in you. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

Shame is one of the most complex and difficult human emotions to experience and process.  This week, we're refreshing a meditation from Dr. Patricia Rockman, who offers a practice to meet shame with courage, tenderness, and curiosity. The more we can sit with these difficult emotions, the more we build resilience, self-knowledge, and self-trust—which are the most powerful natural antidotes to shame. Patricia Rockman, MD, CCFP, FCFP is a family physician with a focused practice in mental health. She is the senior director of Education and Clinical Services at the Centre for Mindfulness Studies, Toronto. Rockman is also an associate professor at the University of Toronto, Department of Family Medicine, cross appointed to Psychiatry. She has extensive experience practicing individual psychotherapy, leading therapy groups, and training healthcare providers in mindfulness-based interventions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and change management for stress reduction. She is a freelance writer, yoga teacher, and meditation practitioner. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired.

Episode 252 PREVIEW: Forgiving Yourself for Acting Out of Alignment (Full Episode on Patreon) | This is a preview of a subscriber-only episode from Aligned Access, my new sacred space on Patreon for deeper, more personal conversations.In this episode, we explore the weight of regret, the lessons hidden in misalignment and the freedom that comes with self-forgiveness. If you've ever looked back on a moment and thought, “Why did I act like that?”, this one is for you. Through raw reflection and gentle mindset shifts, I'll guide you toward compassion, clarity and emotional self-repair while I share a recent moment of messy human-ness.

For most of my life, I believed that money came from hard work—hustling, grinding, proving my worth. But deep down, that belief was rooted in fear and lack. In this episode, I'm sharing the truth that changed everything for me: you don't attract money by doing more—you attract it by shifting who you are on the inside. We'll explore how your Inner Critic has shaped your money story, how to unhook from deeply ingrained scarcity patterns, and how to align with the version of you who already feels worthy, abundant, and free. If you've been chasing success and still feeling like it's never enough—this is your wake-up call to stop striving and start receiving. Listen now and begin creating wealth from within.   Your weekly reflection questions: What do I believe about money—and where did that belief come from? How would I think, feel, and act if I already trusted that abundance is who I am? In what ways is my Inner Critic still convincing me that I have to earn my worth?

In this solo episode, we dive into one of the most foundational—and often overlooked—aspects of being human: understanding your needs. Your needs aren't selfish. They're sacred. Learning how to recognize, honor, and meet them is the root of true, sustainable self-care. It's also the key to deepening your relationship with yourself, others, and the world around you. Together, we explore what it means to tune into your body and emotions, listen to the whispers of your needs, and give yourself permission to respond—without guilt. We will also explore how to be in relationship to the grief that arises when we don't have our needs met.  This episode will leave you feeling grounded, clear, and empowered to fill your own cup—and maybe even inspire those around you to do the same. Grab a copy of my new book, 100 Mindful Moments to Balance & Energize to support you meeting your needs.

Let's talk about radical acceptance—a concept that can completely shift your mindset in sobriety and in life. In this episode of No More Wasted Days, Heather and Sara dive into what radical acceptance actually means, how it helps you move through challenges without resistance, and why it's a powerful tool for staying alcohol-free. If you're struggling with emotions, self-judgment, or the need to control everything, this episode will give you the mindset shift you need to find more peace and freedom on your journey. What You'll Learn in This Episode: What radical acceptance is (and what it's not). Why acceptance doesn't mean giving up—but actually empowers you to take action. How resisting reality creates unnecessary suffering (and how to stop). Practical ways to start using radical acceptance in your alcohol-free journey. How to manage emotions, let go of judgment, and stop fighting what you can't control. Key Takeaways: Acceptance ≠ Approval – You don't have to like a situation to accept it and move forward. Control What You Can – The only thing you truly control is how you respond. Let Go of Judgment – Free yourself from labeling things as “good” or “bad” and just be. Practice Non-Attachment to Outcomes – Focus on what is, not the endless “what ifs.” Self-Compassion is Key – Treat yourself like you would a friend going through a tough time. Memorable Quotes: “Acceptance isn't giving up—it's choosing to move forward without wasting energy on resistance.” “When we resist what's happening, we create more suffering for ourselves.” “Letting go of judgment doesn't mean you're okay with something—it means you're freeing yourself from unnecessary emotional weight.” “You don't need to love your reality to accept it. Acceptance is what helps you move through it.” “Focus on ‘what is' instead of ‘what if'—because the ‘what ifs' will keep you stuck.”   Resources Mentioned: Daymakers Community: Weekly coaching calls, private messaging threads, and a supportive community.

Ever find yourself reaching for snacks when you're not even hungry? Or eating on autopilot without really knowing why?In this episode, I'm joined by Amber Romaniuk—an expert in emotional eating, digestion, and hormones—to unpack what's really going on beneath those habits. Amber opens up about her own journey with binge eating and breaks down the hidden drivers behind compulsive or mindless eating—things like stress, hormone imbalances, and yes, even environmental factors (you know we had to go there).We talk about how emotional eating isn't just about willpower—there's a deeper connection between your body, your emotions, and your environment. And most importantly, Amber shares practical tools to help you start breaking the cycle and build a healthier relationship with food.Whether you're dealing with this yourself or supporting someone who is, this is one of those episodes that can shift your perspective—and maybe even your daily habits.Give it a listen.

In this talk, Bhante Sathi explores how our struggles with forgiveness—especially self-forgiveness—often stem from unrealistic expectations of perfection in ourselves and others. As meditators, we are encouraged to embrace our past mistakes with compassion, knowing they mark growth, and to stay committed to continual self-cultivation for a wiser, more peaceful future.

Welcome to episode 212 where we talk about 'Making Sense of Mind Chatter'. Ever feel like your brain just won't stop talking? That constant swirl of thoughts—whether it's fear, doubt, self-criticism, or overwhelm—is what I like to call mind chatter. In this episode, I break down that chatter into three distinct voices: the sleepy sloth, the yappy dog, and the wise owl. Each one has something to say—and believe it or not, they all matter. Together, we explore how to identify which voice is speaking up in your mind, how each one feels, and how to respond with more clarity and confidence. You'll learn that none of these thoughts make you broken or weak—it just means you're human. And by recognizing these voices instead of reacting to them, you gain more emotional maturity, more peace, and more power to create the mission and life you truly want. Whether you're preparing to serve, currently on your mission, adjusting to post-mission life, or supporting someone who is, this episode will help you understand your brain better—and maybe even befriend that noisy mind of yours. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

Self-compassion without accountability is self-sabotage with better marketing.There's a fine line between being kind to yourself and making excuses.

Hey humans, welcome to "What If," a new, short-format summer mini-series. I know life is busy, so these episodes are five minutes or less, designed to help you focus inward. This week, we're tackling a feeling many of us have been made to feel: that we are "too much". Whether you've been called too emotional, too quiet, or too opinionated, these labels can cause us to internalize the message that we must shrink ourselves to be accepted. I struggled with this myself after being told for years that my intuition was irrelevant and I needed to rely only on data. But embracing our full selves is what leads to resilience and well-being. So, here is your assignment: write a letter to your younger self affirming the very parts of you that were once labeled "too much". The goal is to begin seeing that you are not, and never were, too much. It's about reframing what was called "too emotional" into the compassion and love it truly represents. Enjoy, Stacie More episodes at StacieBaird.com.
