What happens when you put yourself in a room full of creatives and actually commit to building something? In this episode of Better Call Daddy, I'm joined by Priscilla Mensah and my dad, Wayne Friedman, to talk about what we learned from our Creative Entrepreneurship Bootcamp at Houston Community College. We didn't just talk about ideas — we talked about execution. Sales. Contracts. Insurance. Separating personal and business finances. Sustainability. Mindset. The stuff people don't always glamorize. Priscilla Mensah and I share what it feels like to test your ideas in real time — and why showing up (even when you're unsure) is what really moves the needle. We talk about: • Why creativity without sales doesn't scale • The power of being in community with other builders • Learning from setbacks instead of hiding from them • Why every entrepreneur has to get comfortable with vulnerability And of course, Dad weighs in with wisdom about surrounding yourself with creative people who push you forward. If you've been sitting on an idea… this one's for you. Because you don't need to be famous to be powerful. You need to show up.
Jase and Al welcome John and Paula Godwin to reflect on the kind of community that shows up in the hardest moments from medical crises to marital collapse and everything in between. They revisit seasons of fear, loss, and uncertainty, including Paula's HIV needle-stick scare and the painful surgeries that tested Jase and Missy's resolve. The conversation builds to the powerful “even if” faith of Daniel 3 — trusting God not only when He delivers what we ask for, but even if He doesn't.

What if your life-changing opportunity was waiting on the other side of simply showing up — even when you feel unsure, unready, or unseen?In this episode, Shelby sits down with Sarah, pediatric occupational therapist, new mom, and fellow NUUDist, whose decision to start posting on TikTok during her postpartum season unexpectedly led to her being hand-selected as one of the NUUDists — opening the door to an opportunity she never saw coming.What began as a deeply personal outlet — a way to cope with postpartum emotions, rediscover her identity, and rebuild her confidence — slowly turned into something far bigger than she imagined. With the encouragement of her supportive husband, Sarah began showing up consistently, not for fame or followers, but simply to feel like herself again. Just days into posting consistently, she received the email that would officially invite her into the NUUD community — a moment that would completely shift her trajectory.Sarah opens up about the emotional reality of postpartum, the isolation many new mothers experience, and the fear that comes with putting yourself out there — especially when people you know are watching. She shares what it felt like to be chosen as a NUUDist, stepping into rooms she never imagined being in, and how being surrounded by ambitious, driven women helped her see a version of herself she hadn't fully stepped into yet.She also talks about the unforgettable moment she received the NUUD email, the whirlwind experience of meeting the other NUUDists, and how community, courage, and consistency can unlock doors you didn't even know were available to you.This conversation is raw, honest, and deeply inspiring — especially for anyone who feels called to more but is afraid to take the first step, pivot their identity, or believe that bigger opportunities are possible for them.It's a powerful reminder that you don't need to have everything figured out to begin.Sometimes, the simple act of showing up can change your life — and sometimes, it can make you a NUUDist.Connect with our guest:https://www.instagram.com/sarah.difrischiahttps://www.tiktok.com/@sarah.difrischia?_r=1&_t=ZT-93bEhgsnebVSarah is a pediatric occupational therapist currently on maternity leave and stepping into the world of content creation. She lives in Cary, North Carolina with her husband of five years and their new baby, where they enjoy traveling, golfing, and spending time with family.As a new mom navigating major life transitions, Sarah shares an honest and down-to-earth perspective on balance, identity, and rediscovering yourself. She's passionate about expressing herself creatively, trying new things, and building a community rooted in authenticity, growth, and real life.Connect with Shelby Clement:Agency: https://www.shelbyclementmarketing.com/Shop my favorites: http://go.shopmy.us/join/itsshelbyclementGet 20% off on NUUDS https://www.nuuds.com/collections/new-womens?snowball=SHELBY12969Follow on Socials:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shelbydclementLinkedIn:
The Art of Showing Up: Showing Up for Yourself What does it actually mean to show up for yourself? In this final episode of The Art of Showing Up series, we turn inward and explore the most important relationship you have - the one you have with yourself. Showing up for yourself isn't about perfection, productivity, or trying harder. It's about being present and engaged in your own life instead of avoiding it. It's about being emotionally available to yourself, taking responsibility without shame, and rebuilding trust after you've let yourself down. We also look at the ways self-criticism and old patterns pull you backward and how small, consistent actions can move you forward again. From dating yourself and testing what you truly want, to becoming more mindful of your thoughts and environment, this episode invites you to define what showing up for yourself looks like in your life. If you've ever felt disappointed in your own actions or struggled to follow through, this conversation will help you return to yourself with clarity, accountability, and presence. Reflection questions are included to support deeper awareness and practical change. Thanks for listening. If you find this episode helpful, please share it with a friend or family member.

I'm back—and this one is close to my heart. In this episode, I'm talking about something so many of us face: depression, low motivation, and feeling completely stuck. My favorite quote, 'Depression can't hit a moving target,' frames everything I share here — practical, habit-based strategies for showing up for yourself even on the days you really don't want to. I also bring back the fan-favorite weekly review, my current obsessions, goals of the week, a listener affirmation, and a self-love journaling prompt.Affirmation of the Week:✨I can restart my life at any time.✨Self-Love Question of the Week:How can I show up for myself when I feel like my back is against the wall?Connect & Support the ShowLeave a review on Apple Podcasts to be featured in a future episodeRate the show on SpotifyShare this episode to your Instagram or TikTok Stories and tag me!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
After a two-month break from the mic (and an incredible client takeover series), I'm back on The Doctor Coach School™ Podcast with one of the most vulnerable episodes I've ever recorded.In this deeply personal reflection, I share how my December 2025 ADHD diagnosis helped me finally make sense of the last three years of my life and business—and how rejection, unprocessed grief, and self-protection slowly pulled me out of my own marketing while I was still technically “showing up.”This episode is about what it looks like to keep producing, keep serving, keep grinding—while quietly disappearing from yourself.In This Episode, You'll Hear:Why I stepped away from the podcast—and what changed while I was goneHow my December 2025 ADHD diagnosis reframed my entire life story (and my business story)How I went from believing “I'm neurotypical but deficient” to recognizing that I'm neurodivergentThe moment of rejection in 2023 that created the core belief: “They don't want me.”How rejection sensitivity and emotional dysregulation showed up (what I now understand as ADHD/RSD)What “hiding in plain sight” looked like for me: removing myself from my marketing slowly, gradually, unconsciouslyHow my content shifted from story-led to framework-heavy—and why selling started to feel harderThe compounding layers of perimenopause, masking, burnout, trauma, and a shrinking sense of safetyA raw look at 2025: increasing mistakes, relying on AI for messaging, delegating my authority away, and feeling spiritually abandonedThe turning point in July 2025, when I sought God in my lowest moment and experienced deep healing and intimacy with JesusHow TikTok unexpectedly opened the door to ADHD awareness and self-recognitionMy diagnosis journey, medication changes (Strattera → Adderall → Vyvanse), and the grief work I'm doing in therapyWhat's changing now as I rebuild, show my face again, and re-enter my business with my full selfIf This Episode Resonated:If you've ever felt like you were “showing up” while disappearing…If you've built success while quietly shrinking…If rejection changed the way you see yourself…You are not alone.Follow me on TikTok where I'm sharing more of this journey in real time.And keep listening—I'll continue sharing what's unfolding next.Peace and love.Let's Connect: On Instagram On Facebook On LinkedIn On TikTok On my website

Steph breaks down why the metrics you can see on Instagram (and every other platform) were never designed to measure whether your content is building your business. They're influencer metrics. And letting them run the show is quietly costing you clients.You'll learn:- the truth about lurkers- why saturation is not the problem you think it is- the six elements every piece of sales-magnetizing content needs to hit- how Steph's client Mara went viral multiple times in 2025 and converted that visibility into high-ticket clients- the concept of predictable content and what it actually takes to never run out of ideas againThis one will change how you think about showing up. ______________________ SOLD OUT SALES SYSTEM SUMMIT:March 16-20th | 2pm DAILYSign up: https://stephcrowder.com/summit Join the Sold Out Group Programs Mastermind Waitlist https://stephcrowder.com/sogp Connect with Steph Instagram: @heystephcrowder
What if feeling ready isn't required to move forward?In this episode, we explore how self-trust, not confidence, is the real foundation for rebuilding your life, identity, and next chapter.There is a moment many women experience during seasons of change, the moment where something inside you knows it's time to move forward… while another part of you says, not yet.In this solo episode, we explore the difference between feeling ready and building self-trust, and why waiting for perfect confidence can keep you stuck longer than necessary.Through personal stories, lived leadership moments, and nervous system–grounded insight, this conversation reframes what courage actually looks like during rebuilding seasons, especially after loss, identity shifts, or life chapters that didn't go as planned.

In this episode I'm joined by founder of Bright Sky HR and host of podcast HR Coffee Time, Fay Wallis and we're talking about what happens when you turn your expertise into something tangible.Fay is the creator of the Essential HR Planner, a beautifully designed physical planner that has become widely recognised in her industry. She now sells over 1,000 copies a year. But this conversation is not about glossy success stories.It's about what it really takes to build something physical in a digital world.We talk about the emotional ups and downs, the stress, the learning curves, the evolution year by year and why creating a tangible product can position you in a way that content alone sometimes cannot.If you've ever thought about writing a book, creating a planner, launching a journal or packaging your expertise into something people can actually hold in their hands, this episode will give you a grounded and honest perspective.We talk about: How Fay went from a simple 19-page PDF to a nationally recognised hardback plannerThe difference between revenue and authority when it comes to tangible productsWhy physical products can build trust and credibility in a powerful wayThe emotional reality of launching something annuallyHow a product can quietly become the thing you're known forThis conversation is a reminder that visibility isn't always about being louder online. Sometimes it's about building something meaningful and letting that speak for you.Connect with Fay: LinkedIn Bright Sky HR website Essential HR PlannerConnect with Vicki:Take the visibility archetype quizFollow me on Instagram: @iamvickiknightsCheck out my websiteReady to work together?Book a branding photo shoot with meFind out about my visibility coachingFind out more about The Visibility Retreat Grab The Confidence Toolkit for just £15Get my self-paced course, UNCOVER YOUR MAGIC (Use the code SHOWING UP for 10% off)

Send a textWelcome to season 5 of the Another Way To See It Podcast. On this episode we talk about something that keeps coming up on social media, with our friends and clients, and even within ourselves, the idea that in the face of confrontation with the horrors that are being exposed here and abroad, we find ourselves feeling alone in our suffering even if we are partnered, and especially if we're partnered with men. The experience of feeling deeply grief stricken or enraged causes many of our male partners to withdraw from empathizing with our lived experience. We dive deep into this phenomenon, and come out with more questions than answers but believe this is a worthwhile exploration. While devastation remains front and center in the news there are ways to engage in intimate conversation about how we feel, and what we need from our partners, calling them forward rather than pushing them away.Please reach out we love to hear from you, and please support our podcast by liking it on whatever platform you listen, sending it to a friend, and if possible donating.

What if exercise isn't for weight loss?In this episode of Becoming Thin, I sit down with a woman who lost 95 pounds… and didn't stop there. She went from feeling postpartum, overwhelmed, depressed, and nearly 240 pounds to completing 100-mile ultramarathons.But this is not an episode about running.It's about identity.We talk about what happens when you stop using exercise to punish your body and start using it to care for it. We unpack why running alone won't make you thin, why it often makes you hungrier, and how reframing movement can completely change your relationship with food.She shares how she went “cold turkey” into keto and intermittent fasting, lost 95 pounds in a year, then faced carb fear when she reintroduced balance for marathon training. She gained some weight back — and didn't panic. We discuss maintenance as awareness, not obsession, and thinking in seasons instead of days.We also dive into mom guilt, modeling strength for your kids, the fear of regaining weight, and the mindset required to walk through the “pain cave” — those moments when you want to quit.This episode is about learning to keep promises to yourself.It's about meeting yourself in hard moments.It's about realizing that wanting to quit isn't the crime — quitting is.If you've ever felt stuck, afraid of gaining it back, or unsure whether you're “that kind of person,” this conversation will help you think differently.And new thinking creates new results.Listen for the mindset.

In this Write Big session, Jennie Nash talks with podcast co-host Sarina Bowen about what it really feels like to finish a book—especially the anxiety and pressure that can come with “finishing energy.” Sarina shares a powerful mindset shift: there is no summit in a writing career. You may reach the end of a draft (or even launch day), but the work doesn't magically get easier—there's always another book. The key, she says, is learning to love the hike itself and stay connected to your curiosity so you can keep showing up. This is a public episode.

The Art of Showing Up: Showing Up for Others Showing up for others sounds simple, but it's often harder than we expect. In this episode, we explore what it really means to show up for the people in our lives, not by fixing their problems, rescuing, or taking on their emotions, but by being present and grounded in ourselves. We talk about how to hold space without losing yourself, how to stay regulated when someone else is struggling, and why true presence doesn't require having the right words or solutions. This conversation also looks at the often-overlooked challenge of showing up during good times - celebrations like weddings, pregnancies, promotions, and milestones - and what to do when comparison, jealousy, or grief quietly surface. This episode invites you to notice what comes up for you when others need support or are experiencing joy, and how to care for your own inner experience so you can show up with honesty, compassion, and boundaries. Reflection questions are included to help you explore how you show up for others, and how that connects to how you show up for yourself. Thanks for listening.

What separates people who last from those who fade out?14-year NFL veteran Kelvin Beachum joins me for a wide-ranging conversation about longevity, discipline, faith, and what it really takes to keep showing up when motivation fades.Kelvin reflects on the principles that have shaped his life on and off the field — from growing up in a small Texas town to becoming one of the longest-tenured offensive linemen in the NFL. He explains why willingness matters more than talent, why falling in love with the mundane is essential for sustained success, and how delayed gratification compounds over time.The conversation explores everything from training and recovery after 35, to faith as a daily practice, to financial discipline, mentorship, and preparing for life after football. Kelvin also shares how his understanding of “why” has evolved — from proving himself as a seventh-round draft pick to serving others, mentoring younger players, and building a future beyond the game.Let's call it a masterclass in consistency, humility, and doing the unglamorous work that most people avoid — and why that work is often the true common denominator of meaningful success.In This Episode, You'll Learn- Why willingness often matters more than talent- How falling in love with the mundane creates long-term success- The role delayed gratification plays in building a lasting career- Why showing up consistently compounds over time- How Kelvin adapted training, recovery, and rest as he aged in the NFL- Why faith became central to his ability to endure and perform- How financial discipline protects athletes after their playing days end- What mentorship looks like later in a career- How Kelvin is preparing for life after football through private equity and global investing- Why curiosity may be one of the most underrated drivers of growthTimestamps: 0:00 Introduction03:46 – The Power of Showing Up & Valuing Time05:18 – Family Influence: Grandfather, Father & Faith07:16 – Small-Town Roots & Growing Up with Sports10:02 – NFL Career Longevity Explained11:26 – The X-Factor: Loving the Mundane13:35 – Motivation, Delayed Gratification & Competing with Yourself16:44 – Defying Labels & Breaking Stereotypes18:11 – Training at 36: Recovery Over Ego21:27 – Sleep, Recovery & Non-Negotiables23:08 – Faith as a Foundation25:59 – Financial Discipline in the NFL29:12 – Long-Term Wealth, Trusts & Legacy Planning31:21 – Mentoring Younger Players33:27 – Life After Football35:49 – Staying Humble & Always Learning37:02 – Walter Payton Man of the Year Award38:07 – The True Common Denominator38:55 – Final Reflections & Gratitude39:09 – Kelvin's Big Adventure & Staying Curious40:40 – Final Thanks & Sign-OffLike this episode?

Unbothered, Unmasked, and Still Showing Up: Why Neurodivergent People Do the Hard Things for Others Patricia Young (she/her) explores what it means to show up for others as an AuDHDer. She reflects on value-driven behavior, executive functioning challenges, internalized ableism, grief, rest, and the deep relief of living an "unbothered life." Through personal stories about partnership, support, sensory overwhelm, initiation struggles, and authentic connection, this episode invites listeners to rethink productivity, compassion, and what real belonging looks like when we stop masking and start honoring our nervous systems. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · Why neurodivergent people often do hard things for others but struggle to do the same things for themselves · The difference between preference vs. values (and why values often override sensory limits) · A real-life example of showing up for an important ritual despite overwhelm · How gratitude and being seen can make difficult experiences feel meaningful · The "Soup Jean" metaphor: values-based caregiving and automatic compassion · Why some people are confused by generosity—and how that reflects differing value systems · Letting go of mental noise and choosing an unbothered life · OCD, intrusive thoughts, and giving your brain limited airtime instead of full control · "Not my circus, not my monkeys" as a neurodivergent boundary tool · Executive functioning struggles with task initiation (especially for autistic & ADHD adults) · How supportive partners can initiate without infantilizing · Internalized ableism and the fear of "What if I have to do this alone someday?" · The myth that trying harder fixes ADHD and autistic challenges · Compassion for inconsistent energy, productivity, and capacity · Capitalism, productivity culture, and why rest feels morally loaded · Why systems (homes for objects) matter more than willpower · Everyday executive functioning examples (milk, groceries, unfinished tasks) · When to step in to support vs. letting natural consequences happen · Communicating needs during grief without over-explaining or masking · Redefining intimacy: showing up tired, quiet, grumpy, or grieving—and still belonging SOUND BITES · "There are things I struggle to do for myself that I would do without hesitation for people I love—because that's my value system." · "I don't want things taking up space in my head that don't belong to me anymore." · "Just because I can do something one day doesn't mean I can do it the next—and that's not a moral failure." · "Rest isn't laziness. It's information." · "You can't screw up being you." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: www.unapologeticallysensitive.com LINKS To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select "listen on Apple Podcasts" chose "open in itunes" choose "ratings and reviews" click to rate the number of starts click "write a review" Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Unapologetically AuDHD Podcast-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/ e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com
