That's why in this final episode of our 3-part mini mindset series with Bec Stewart, we're tackling a topic we all deal with: procrastination.Bec breaks down what procrastination really is, why we fall into it (even with the best intentions), and how it connects back to the Future You Lens. We dive into how self-doubt, fear of failure, and perfectionism can keep us stuck and more importantly, what to actually do about it.

Ever feel trapped in your own box? In this brutally honest episode, Mss Francois (the Multi-talented and Super Sexy powerhouse from Trinidad and Tobago) exposes the immigrant journey nobody talks about—being kicked to the curb with her belongings in garbage bags just months after arriving in America.She doesn't sugarcoat it: "It sucked. I hated it." But from those black trash bags emerged unfiltered wisdom on building success when nobody believes in you. Discover why strangers often lift you higher than your own family, why your phone contacts list might be sabotaging your future, and how to escape the perfection trap that's killing your progress.This isn't your typical "work hard and succeed" pep talk. It's a no-bullshit conversation about recognizing when fear of success is more paralyzing than fear of failure, why your team doesn't need to be physically near you to change your life, and how humor can literally heal your body while building your confidence.Follow Mss Francois: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mss-francois-31350a1b3/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MssFrancois/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mss_francois/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mss_francois Twitter: https://x.com/Mss_Francois?s=09 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheMssFrancoisShow1As always we ask you to comment, DM, whatever it takes to have a conversation to help you take the next step in your journey, reach out on any platform!Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram, Tiktok, LinkedinDISCLOSURE: Awards and rankings by third parties are not indicative of future performance or client investment success.

Did you know there are tactical frameworks for manifesting? I'm back with another Living Room Session podcast with one of my best friends, Lori Harder as we share the patterns behind our biggest breakthroughs and the gritty, unglamorous work that happens behind the scenes before things “click.” We're getting real about the moments we realized we were in our own way and the next steps anyone can take NOW to write a new future for themselves. We talk about how to stay in the game when it feels impossible, keys to personal transformation, and how to stop waiting to be chosen and anoint yourself now. We're talking the literal frameworks Lori used to push past rejection to go on to land over 10 magazine covers, and she's still using those same frameworks to create success in other areas today! You already have everything you need to manifest your biggest desires, now it's your move.    HIGHLIGHTS 02:00 When was the last time you took a bold move and showed up differently? 04:45 Early decisions that led Lori to break records and land magazine covers. 07:00 How your network will help (or hurt) your ability to rise to your next level. 09:45 The power of understanding why you actually want the things you're manifesting. 14:00 What is stopping you from anointing yourself? 18:30 Where are you avoiding doing the work that is required for your next level? 23:15 Why it's important to recognize YOUR favorite flavor (aka pattern) of self sabotage. 27:00 Why you NEED a community that won't let you quit.  35:00 How jealousy became a catalyst for Lori to finish her book. 44:45 How rejection and challenges prepare us for the person who can hold the dream. 47:00 Tactical tips for manifesting (and what it actually FEELS like when you're manifesting). 50:00 The question to ask people you trust to get clear on what's in your way.  55:15 How to keep showing up for your dream when you're faced with challenges.   RESOURCES + LINKS Click HERE for tickets to the 2025 Powerhouse Women Event August 15-17th in Scottsdale, Arizona!

"Who mentors the mentors?" "There's no such thing as a cold call in WBL." "How can I help you?" These powerful mantras echo through the halls of Women Business Leaders (WBL), the longest-standing executive forum for women in healthcare leadership. And for our landmark 200th episode of Inspiring Women, we're going back to where it all began. Twenty-five years ago, Lynn Shapiro Snyder found herself one too many times as the only woman at the decision-making table. Instead of accepting this reality, she picked up the phone and made 60 cold calls to the most influential women in healthcare. One by one, they answered with a resounding "yes." And WBL was born. Join us for an intimate conversation with the visionaries who started it all: Lynn Shapiro Snyder, Jeannine Rivet, Carrie Valiant, and Marcia Nusgart. With candor, wisdom, and plenty of laughter, these pioneers share how their initial gathering evolved from a one-time retreat into a powerful network that has elevated thousands of women into leadership positions. When women lead, we create a more just and equitable society—full stop. And today, WBL's mission remains as vital as ever. This 200th episode isn't just a milestone; it's a love song to trailblazing women everywhere—those who stand tall, who lift their voices, and who use their power to push, guide, and pull us all forward. Join us for this celebration of legacy, leadership, and the sisterhood that continues to transform healthcare and beyond. Chapter Markers 01:09 How WBL Was Born from One Cold Call 04:01 Planning the First Retreat—and Why It Almost Didn't Happen 10:32 Saying Yes to Something Bigger Than Yourself 17:56 The First Summit: Envelopes, Oprah Moments, and Self-Promotion 29:33 Why WBL Matters Now More Than Ever 34:52 What WBL Has Meant to Us—Founders Reflect Guest & Host Links Connect with Laurie McGraw on LinkedIn Connect with Lynn Shapiro Snyder on LinkedIn Connect with Carrie Valiant on LinkedIn Connect with Marcia Nusgart on LinkedIn Learn more about Jeannine Rivet, RN, MPH, FAAN  Connect with Inspiring Women Browse Episodes | LinkedIn | Instagram | Apple | Spotify This episode of Inspiring Women was recorded at the WBL Summit, a leadership, networking, and professional development conference for WBL members that takes place each spring.  WBL is a network of 1500+ senior executive women in healthcare who convene to share ideas, make valuable connections, and solve business challenges. WBL's mission is to connect and support our members in advancing their careers and impact on our industry.

If you've ever dreamed of a hospital stay just to get a break (guilty!), this episode is for you. Sarah and I crack open the truth about how we ignore our body's whispers until they start screaming - whether it's migraines, burnout, or a mysterious case of adult-level grumpiness. From feather nudges to metaphorical Mack trucks, we explore how our bodies are basically yelling, “Stop volunteering for crap you hate!” We talk about: Why self-care isn't selfish (and might just save your sanity). “Feather, rock, truck” – the escalation path of ignoring your intuition. How resentment and migraines might be soul-siblings. Ditching the “busy badge” and choosing joy instead. Reclaiming the right to do absolutely nothing (and love it). Why being awkward and honest beats perfection every time. This episode is full of real talk, belly laughs, and gentle-but-firm reminders to check in with your own damn needs before your body checks you into a hospital.

PBSE Podcast Episode 281, tackles the painful and familiar experience of betrayed partners who live in a constant state of anxiety, waiting for the next betrayal to surface. Centering around a listener's heartfelt submission, the article outlines the emotional toll of repeated trauma, especially in relationships where staggered disclosures have prolonged the hurt. Despite doing some recovery work, the listener still struggles with fear, mistrust, and a lack of emotional safety, highlighting the core issue: how to move forward without continually bracing for disaster.The discussion focuses on reclaiming personal power through sovereignty, healthy boundaries, and authentic voice. It emphasizes that although the betrayed partner did not cause the trauma, healing requires active steps toward self-care and emotional clarity. Instead of controlling a partner's actions, effective boundaries are framed around one's own needs, expectations, and non-negotiables. The hosts challenge the traditional model of boundary-setting, shifting the focus from rule enforcement to emotional empowerment. They also stress the importance of clearly communicating pain—not as a weapon, but as an invitation to intimacy and healing.Ultimately, the episode encourages partners to prioritize themselves first. Whether or not the relationship survives, their well-being, authenticity, and voice matter most. Real connection, the kind partners yearn for, is only possible when both individuals show up with honesty and accountability. If the addict partner is unwilling or unable to do that, the betrayed partner can still reclaim safety, peace, and purpose. Through programs like Dare to Connect and a strong support network, partners can stop waiting for catastrophe and instead begin living intentionally, boldly, and on their own terms.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to:  As a Betrayed Partner, How Do I Stop Waiting Around for the Rug to be Pulled Out from Under Me—Again?!Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

If you are waiting for the right moment, gallery or person to make your art career click, you could be waiting forever. In this episode, Ceri shares four powerful ways to start earning from your art. Not someday, not once you feel ready, but today….right now. The strategies Ceri shares are insights that come from the real-world experience of Zawadi, an exceptional artist who had great networking skills and plenty of shows but was still not earning. Then, she joined The Artist Mastermind Circle, the peer support, coaching, forums and masterclasses, shifted everything and enabled Zawadi to take things to the next level and start earning. KEY TAKEAWAYS Understand what it really takes to be sales and commission ready. Ceri´s provides a masterclass to give you a full understanding of how commercial galleries, agents and art advisors really work. Prepare the groundwork to make it easy for potential buyers to say yes. Maximise the advocates you already have. Re-connect with buyers and people you have worked with or for in the past. Don´t let fear and the avoidance behaviours that result from that fear continue to hold you back. Group coaching is a powerful way to open up, recognise what is holding you back and find the support you need to take the right action, break through and earn. Coaching doesn't just give you answers, it shows you how. Registration for the next The Artist Mastermind Circle starts on 13th May. BEST MOMENTS “If you're stuck in a loop, waiting to feel ready, wondering when your time will come, let this be the sign - your time is now.” “Join The Artist Mastermind Circle to get real-time feedback, insight and care from myself and artists like you.” “She wasn’t quite ready to sell, not because her work wasn´t strong, but because her systems were missing.” “That shift from feeling like an outsider to realising she had something valuable to offer was seismic.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

What is the illusion that readiness creates? Let's get something clear right from the start: “Feeling ready” is a myth. It's not a real thing. It's a feeling. But it's not a milestone you suddenly arrive at. It's not a box you check off. It's not something you get handed after watching 10 webinars or reading a few books. It's an illusion. And the longer you wait for it, the longer you stay stuck. What you actually need is courage and a decision. That's it. It's easy to think you need more training, a better website, more confidence, or even more time before you can truly start your business or move it forward. But what you're actually doing is using “not ready” as a shield. A form of protection. If you never launch, you never fail. If you never promote yourself, no one can judge you. But the flip side? You never grow. You never help anyone. And you certainly don't build the VA business you say you want. I've seen it over and over again with the VAs I coach, and I've experienced it myself. I remember struggling to have the VA business that I wanted. I took every course I could find (free of course), and I kept adding to my arsenal of learned stuff. I didn't really set goals, because I didn't feel ready. I didn't do any networking, because I didn't feel ready. I didn't promote my business, because I wasn't quite …. ready. Well, I'm here to tell you now that the longer you stay your own little secret, the more you will struggle. Stop waiting, and start being a ridiculously good virtual assistant. If you need support to move faster and with more clarity, I'm here… It's the only reason I'm here at all, is to help you become a ridiculously VA. Drop me a DM to chat about where you are stuck. I'm on all the social media channels, so find me where you are. Or go to YourVAMentor.com/links to connect with me.

You don't need another expert telling you to “get off your phone” or “try magnesium.” You probably already know what helps with sleep. The harder part? Actually doing it—consistently, night after night.In this solo episode, Blaine lays it out straight: better sleep isn't about chasing the next trick—it's about showing up for the simple things that work. She connects the dots between light exposure, bedtime routines, old wisdom, and modern behavioral tools that (surprise!) all say the same thing: your body wants rhythm, not randomness.This episode is equal parts practical, grounded, and honest. If your sleep is off and you're ready to stop treating it like a side project, press play.What she covers:Why light is your body's favorite sleep medicineNot a supplement. Not a sleep spray. Natural light—especially in the morning and evening—can re-sync your internal clock more powerfully than most people realize. Blaine explains how to work with it, not against it.The little habits that quietly sabotage restFrom screen time to late dinners, these might seem harmless, but they add up. This part isn't about shame—it's about noticing what's actually making it harder to wind down (and what's not worth stressing over).A behavioral approach that skips the fluff CBT-I is one of the most researched methods for sleep. Blaine gives a down-to-earth overview of how it works and why it might be worth looking into if your nights are consistently rough.What waking up at 2 a.m. might be telling youTraditional systems like Chinese medicine have long understood the body's nighttime patterns. Learn why those specific hours might not be random—and what you can do with that information.Blaine's Core Message:If you want better sleep, you have to commit to change. Routine, consistency, and respect for your body's rhythms—not quick fixes—are what lead to lasting rest and healing.

Mother's Day hasn't always felt the way I thought it would — especially as a mom of teenagers. I spent years waiting to be celebrated, managing my mindset around disappointment, and wondering if anyone really saw everything I was carrying. In this episode, I'm sharing a raw and honest reflection on why this day can feel so emotionally charged, and what I've learned about letting go — not just of expectations, but of the idea that our worth depends on anyone else's recognition. If you're navigating the almost empty nest, this conversation will give you the perspective and permission you didn't know you needed. Curious about coaching with Small Jar?

Still waiting for a sign to start that thing God put on your heart? This episode is your wake-up call. In today's short but fiery pep talk, I'm sharing what I wish someone would've told me years ago:

If you've been sitting on the sidelines, telling yourself, “I'd really love to flip a house but the market is too (hot, unpredictable, competitive, etc…”) Know that you're not alone. But you are missing out. The truth? Those who are successful don't wait on timing. They follow a plan that works in any market. So in this week's episode I'm breaking down why waiting for the "perfect" time is limiting you, what flipping can look like in a variety of markets, and what you need instead of timing to succeed.  And if this episode lights a fire under you... The waitlist for House Flip Blueprint—a proven system to find, fund, renovate, and sell profitable flips without sacrificing style or sanity is now open. You don't have to choose between profit and quality. You can flip homes that stand out—and sell fast. Join the waitlist here and unlock exclusive bonuses.        

In this special live episode of The Fierce Factor, recorded at the ALT Experience, I had the absolute honor of sitting down with New York Times bestselling author, entrepreneur, and intentional living advocate Sahil Bloom for a conversation that completely redefines what it means to be successful. Sahil's story is both humbling and inspiring. From managing a $3.5 billion private equity fund to walking away from it all to pursue a more intentional life, he shares the pivotal moment that forced him to reevaluate everything—when he realized just how limited his time with the people he loves really was. That gut-check changed the course of his life, and in this episode, he walks us through what it looks like to build a life that's truly aligned with your values. We talked about so many powerful concepts from his book—why work-life balance is a myth, how to use the “dimmer switch” approach to design a more fulfilling life, and what it really means to be “rich.” We discussed the emotional cost of growth, the loneliness that often comes with transformation, and the courage it takes to let go of the people and identities that no longer serve you. If you're building a business, chasing big goals, and also yearning for a life of deeper connection and meaning, this episode will speak directly to you. It's not just about finding more time—it's about taking radical ownership of the time, energy, and freedom you already have.

Clarity feels like that elusive treasure we're all searching for – the magical moment when everything falls into place and our purpose becomes crystal clear. But what if everything you've believed about finding clarity is actually holding you back?This episode dismantles the harmful myth that clarity is something you stumble upon like a hidden treasure. Instead, I share the liberating truth that clarity is something you actively build through brave, imperfect action. You'll discover why waiting for that lightning bolt moment of certainty keeps you stuck, and how the comfort zone you're hesitant to leave is actually where your dreams go to die.The real transformation happens when you understand that clarity isn't the precursor to action – it's the result of it. Every step forward, even the messy ones that feel like mistakes, provides valuable data points that guide you closer to where you're meant to be. As I share from my own journey of building a coaching business, those "wrong turns" aren't failures – they're filtering mechanisms that refine your path.You'll learn the crucial difference between measuring outcomes versus measuring energy, and why your internal compass has been there all along. Rather than waiting for perfect certainty, I challenge you to choose one thing you're curious about and take one imperfect action toward it this week. Because success isn't built through perfect choices – it's built by making enough brave choices that you eventually land exactly where you're meant to be.Ready to stop waiting and start building the clarity you've been searching for? Listen now, and discover how even one tiny brave move can start creating the aligned life that feels like home.Thanks for listening! Connect With Me:

In this episode, Angus Nelson, author of Confidence Comes Later, discusses his journey of building confidence through action and embracing uncertainty. Angus, an entrepreneur and personal development coach, explores how to disrupt your life by taking bold steps instead of waiting for confidence to appear, and how this can lead to personal growth and transformation. In this conversation, we explore: • The Myth of Confidence: Angus explains why confidence is often misunderstood as something you wait for, and how true confidence is built through action, learning, and perseverance, not certainty. • Certainty vs. Confidence: We discuss how the need for certainty can hold us back, and how embracing uncertainty allows us to take the next step, even when we can't predict the future. • The Power of Small Sprints: Angus introduces the concept of short-term “sprints” to focus on incremental progress, stressing that it's the small, consistent steps that lead to big changes over time. • The Fluid Self: We talk about the importance of remaining fluid and adaptable, whether in your career or personal life, and how flexibility allows for growth and overcoming obstacles. • Disrupting Yourself vs. Waiting for Life to Disrupt You: Angus discusses how proactively disrupting your own comfort zone leads to growth, whereas life's inevitable disruptions can leave you unprepared if you aren't willing to make the first move. Angus shares powerful insights on how to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start taking action, creating momentum, and embracing the lessons that come from both success and failure. His approach will inspire you to live boldly and confidently. Learn more about Angus and his work at AngusNelson.com and connect with him on LinkedIn here.

Episode Summary Success in your freelance business isn't about grand gestures, massive marketing campaigns, or expensive training. It's about the tiny, seemingly insignificant moments you're tempted to skip—the quick LinkedIn post, the follow-up email, the slightly bolder pricing quote. These micro-moments are where real transformation happens. In this episode, we explore how small decisions—often dismissed as trivial—can lead to major breakthroughs in your freelance career. Whether it's landing a high-paying client, securing a game-changing project, or leveling up your pricing, the path to success is built one micro-moment at a time. What You'll Learn in This Episode ·       Why the most pivotal changes in your business come from micro-moments, not big moves. ·       Real-life examples of how tiny decisions led to massive breakthroughs. ·       How to recognize and seize these opportunities in your own freelance career. ·       Practical steps to train yourself to take action—even when it feels pointless. Key Takeaways 1. Micro-Moments Are the Foundation of Freelance Success The biggest client you land won't come from a massive campaign; it'll likely stem from a quick follow-up email you almost didn't send. The rate increase that changes your business starts with one tiny moment of courage. Your best opportunities often come from the things you're most tempted to dismiss as “too small to matter.” 2. Success Happens in the Small Choices You Make Daily Skipping that quick outreach might mean missing a life-changing opportunity. That extra five minutes tweaking your website copy could be the difference between a lead converting or bouncing. Small habits and micro-decisions compound over time, creating momentum that drives business growth. 3. Stop Waiting for Perfect Conditions — Take Action Now Life will always throw obstacles in your way, but progress doesn't require ideal conditions. Success is built in the moments when you could have said "not now" but chose to act instead. Train yourself to recognize these moments and embrace them as opportunities. Actionable Exercises ·       Micro-Moment Awareness: At the end of each day, reflect on one small action you took that could lead to something bigger. ·       The "What the Heck" Rule: Next time you're debating whether to send that follow-up or post that update, just do it. Assume it could be the moment that changes everything. ·       Tiny Courage Challenge: Quote slightly higher than you normally would. Send the pitch you're nervous about. Take one small but bold action this week. Listener Challenge This week, commit to embracing just one micro-moment you would normally ignore. Take action, then observe what happens.
