 At the end of 2023, there was this phrase I kept hearing in my head on repeat. "It doesn't feel safe to slow down."I'd end my days feeling completely depleted mentally, physically, and emotionally. And yet I'd still push myself to do more. Sometimes it was work stuff, sometimes it was home stuff. But I had this constant, almost compulsive need to be doing something productive at all times. Rest felt elusive, like this thing other people could do, once they'd earned it. For me, rest basically just meant sleep. It was a quick reset so I could get up and do it all over again.Sound familiar?  Let's figure out how we can unlearn that habit.-----Episode Mentioned: 314.

Welcome to a brand new episode of the You Can Call Me “Bossy" podcast. Today, I sit down with my friend and fellow self-proclaimed data and marketing nerd Emily Kim. Emily is a business strategist and coach for photographers and creative entrepreneurs, and she brings her unique perspective as a former software engineer turned brand photographer. In this conversation, Emily shares her journey from navigating the cutthroat world of tech—where being “bossy” and “too much” were often labels used to diminish her—to carving out her own path as an entrepreneur and educator. Emily gets real about the frustrations of corporate bureaucracy, the internal challenges of “too muchness,” and the process of reconnecting with her creativity and intuition. Emily also opens up about the messy middle of evolving your career, the pressure of timelines, learning to trust the process, and how she honed her unique voice as a leader in her industry—despite fear of judgment from others. Whether you're thinking about making a similar leap or just want a refreshing dose of real talk about entrepreneurship, creativity, and personal growth, you're going to love this thoughtful and honest episode. Key Takeaways: Alignment with the framework: shifting from “do to have” to “be to do to have” Not being tied to one specific self-help tool, but maintaining general self-awareness The importance of trying new things and giving habits/strategies enough time Key Timestamps [6:00] – Embracing 'Too Muchness [15:50] – Be, Then Do, For Success [26:47] – Overcoming Imposter Syndrome [36:03] – Challenging Traditional Success Norms [42:13] – "Consistent Journaling Benefits" Episode Quote "So then you have to go into this internal battle of shame almost, because you're like, I should be grateful for being here.

BONUS Solution-Focused Coaching for Agile Teams With Ralph and Veronika

BONUS: Solution-Focused Coaching: The Game-Changing Method Every Scrum Master Needs With Ralph Miarka and Veronika Jugwirth In this BONUS episode, we dive deep into solution-focused coaching with Ralph and Veronika, co-authors of "Solution Focused Coaching For Agile Teams." This conversation explores how to shift from problem-solving to solution-building, helping Agile teams thrive through a forward-looking approach that empowers teams to find their own path to success. Understanding Solution-Focused Coaching "Solution focus, focuses on the goal itself. We are not talking about 'how', but first start with 'what we want to achieve'." Solution-focused coaching represents a fundamental shift from traditional problem-solving approaches. Rather than diving into root cause analysis and retrospectives focused on what went wrong, this methodology centers on the future and desired outcomes. It operates as a communication system that recognizes the complexity of modern work environments where simple cause-effect relationships don't always apply. In engineering, root causes make sense when dealing with predictable systems, but in complex organizational dynamics, solution-focused coaching acknowledges that we often can't identify clear root causes and instead focuses on creating a "preferred future." In this segment we refer to Solution-focused brief therapy and the Cynefin model.  The Power of Not-Knowing "Instead of suggesting solutions, we should start by asking questions. The “Not-knowing position” is about accepting this." The "not-knowing position" challenges coaches and leaders to resist the urge to immediately diagnose problems and offer solutions. When someone shares their story, they're not sharing the version we think we know. This approach transforms coaching conversations by starting with questions like "What difference would it make for you to solve this problem?" This shift toward asking questions about a positive future can even help identify advocates among those who initially resist change, creating unexpected allies in transformation efforts. Everyone as an Expert "When we help teams change by themselves, they change much faster." The principle that "everyone is an expert in their situation" fundamentally changes how coaches approach team dynamics, especially during periods of pressure or conflict. Instead of imposing external solutions, this approach involves asking teams what they already like about their current practices. For example, when observing daily standups with their natural diversity of approaches, focusing on what teams appreciate about their existing practices creates a foundation for sustainable change. Teams that discover their own path to improvement implement changes more rapidly and with greater commitment than those following prescribed solutions. The Miracle Question Technique "What would be a very small first sign that tells you that there was a small miracle during the night?" The Miracle Question emerges from real coaching conversations where clients express that "only a miracle can help." Rather than dismissing this statement, solution-focused coaches embrace the client's language to create powerful exploration opportunities. The technique involves asking teams to imagine their situation after a small miracle has occurred overnight, then identifying the first small signs they would notice. This approach helps teams explore possibilities and envision concrete steps toward their preferred future, making abstract goals tangible and achievable. Unlearning the Fix-It Mentality "Don't work by yourself in the problems of others, let them work." For Agile practitioners trained to identify and fix problems, solution-focused coaching requires a significant mindset shift. Instead of jumping into problem-solving mode, coaches must learn to hold space for solutions to emerge naturally from the team. This involves trusting that team members are experts in their own situations and developing strong questioning skills. Coaches and Scrum Masters need to clarify their own goals and resist the urge to solve problems for others, instead creating conditions where teams can work through challenges themselves. Practical Questions for Immediate Implementation "What do we want to achieve? What is our goal, and why?" Teams can immediately begin incorporating solution-focused approaches by bringing specific questions into their regular ceremonies. Key questions include exploring what the team wants to achieve and understanding the underlying purpose behind their goals. Additionally, asking "What works already?" helps teams build on existing strengths rather than focusing solely on problems. Confidence-building questions like "How confident are we?" and "What would make you more confident?" create opportunities for teams to identify specific actions that would increase their likelihood of success. About Ralph and Veronika Ralph Miarka is an Agile coach, trainer, and co-author of the book that is our topic for today's episode: Solution Focused Coaching For Agile Teams. Ralph helps teams thrive through solution-focused coaching. With a background in engineering and leadership, he bridges structure and empathy to spark real change.

Every Friday, we bring you business owners and experts who share their top strategies for growing yourself, your team and your small business. Get ready for a dose of inspiration, one action you can implement and quotable quotes that will stick with you long after the episode ends! In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Amanda Jones interviews Linda Manaena, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of LeaderLab, a consultancy dedicated to helping leaders create psychologically safe and high-performing workplaces. Linda discusses how LeaderLab uses neuroscience and practical, evidence-based tools to support leaders in shifting from command and control to leading with clarity, courage, and connection. She emphasizes the importance of moving beyond compliance to foster genuine trust, inclusion, and well-being within teams. Linda also shares common ways leaders unintentionally undermine safety and the mindset shifts needed to build resilient cultures. A special highlight of the episode is Linda announcing her upcoming podcast, Meno Mojo, which blends sass, science, and shenanigans to explore the often-overlooked topic of menopause. Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Psychological Safety is Not Optional — Even for Small Teams: Linda debunks the myth that small businesses are “too small” to worry about psychological safety. Regardless of team size, creating a culture where people feel safe, heard, and valued is essential for productivity and well-being. Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast: Taking the time to build trust and safety within your team may feel slow initially, but it leads to smoother operations and faster results over time. Investing upfront in people yields long-term gains. Avoid the “Toughen Up” Trap: Old leadership mindsets like “just toughen up” are no longer effective. These attitudes can unintentionally harm team morale. Instead, leaders should focus on empathy, curiosity, and adapting to individual team member needs. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Compliance and Culture Go Hand-in-Hand: Safety isn't just a compliance checklist—it's about culture. Leaders must balance legal responsibilities with a human-centered approach that empowers teams to thrive emotionally and psychologically. Leaders Can Undermine Safety Unintentionally: Common behaviors like micromanaging, rushing decisions, or dismissing ideas can quietly erode psychological safety. Awareness and better communication—like asking “What can I do differently to help you do your best work?”—go a long way. Leadership Starts With Self-Awareness: One of Linda's strongest messages is about personal responsibility: leaders must look inward and understand their own behaviors and triggers to lead with courage and connection. Unlearning outdated habits is key to better leadership. One action small business owners can take: According to Linda Manaena, one action a small business owner should take is to ask their team, “What can I do differently to make it easier for you to do your best work?” and then simply listen. Creating space for open, honest dialogue builds psychological safety and trust. This small yet powerful step helps leaders better understand their people and improve overall team performance.

Are you constantly smiling and nodding when you really want to scream "No!"? I've been there, too. That feeling of saying yes when your body and mind are begging you to decline is a symptom of something deeper – the good girl narrative that's been ingrained in us since childhood.The cost of living as a good girl is enormous. We chase external validation, overfunction in every area of life, and end up burnt out, resentful, and disconnected from our authentic selves. But there is a way out, and in this week's episode, I share it with you.

Heal from Infidelity

Today we're exploring unbecoming and self-discovery. We'll look at the importance of stripping away old identities and beliefs that no longer serve us, particularly those rooted in childhood trauma. We need to create space for authenticity and self-acceptance, rather than striving for an idealized version of ourselves.  Key Takeaways: Healing from infidelity involves unbecoming old identities. Many beliefs about self-worth are rooted in childhood experiences. Unlearning is often more important than becoming something new. Creating space for authenticity allows for true self-discovery. The pressure to be better can stem from past trauma. It's essential to recognize what stories are not truly yours. Self-acceptance is a key part of the healing process. The journey of unbecoming can be uncomfortable but necessary. You are not defined by your past or the actions of others. Real work is about being present with yourself, not rushing to an outcome.

"Feelings fully felt is bliss." "Breath is always free." "Self-augmentation is the key."   Episode summary | In this episode of the Return on Generosity podcast, host Shannon Cassidy speaks with Jason Henkel, founder of Focus to Evolve, about achieving balance and productivity without burnout. Jason shares his journey from a hectic corporate life to discovering the importance of self-management and centeredness. He emphasizes the need for leaders to create high-performance teams and the role of architectural calendaring in productivity. The conversation also explores the potential of AI in augmenting thought processes and the unique strengths of individuals with ADHD. Ultimately, Jason advocates for a shift in workplace culture towards generosity and self-care, encouraging listeners to redefine productivity and prioritize their well-being.   R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | Self-management needs to come before time management. The hustle culture is outdated; balance is key to thriving. Feelings fully felt lead to a blissful life experience. Creating a centered atmosphere can positively influence teams. Architectural calendaring helps in organizing tasks effectively. Deep immersion sessions can unlock higher productivity levels. AI can be used for thought augmentation and identifying blind spots. ADHD can be harnessed as a superpower when managed well. Generosity towards oneself is crucial for personal growth.

In this episode of Integrative You Radio, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick dive deep into the frustrations many face when personal development efforts seem to plateau. They unpack the concept that true growth requires strengthening your "vessel"—a holistic integration of mind, body, and energy. The discussion highlights how focusing on one area in isolation limits potential and why aligning foundational aspects like health, environment, and mindset is critical to unlocking limitless potential. They also explore the importance of unlearning societal programming, asking better questions, and leveraging strategic personal development to create a life aligned with your values and vision. This episode is packed with actionable insights to help you break through stagnation and achieve a more integrated, fulfilling life.   #PersonalDevelopment #MindBodyEnergy #IntegrativeHealing #GrowthMindset #Unlearning #HolisticHealth #SelfMastery #LimitlessPotential #AlignWithValues #IntegrativeYouRadio   3 Key Takeaways:   The Strength of the Vessel: Your ability to express your true inner power is limited by the strength of your vessel—mind, body, and energy. Growth requires an integrative approach, not isolated focus. Strategic Alignment: Plateaus in personal development often signal misaligned foundational aspects. Addressing these areas strategically can unlock new levels of growth and clarity. Unlearning to Grow: Personal development isn't just about adding tools—it's about unlearning limiting beliefs and societal programming that hold you back. True progress comes from alignment with your authentic self.  Quotes:  "You can only express power based on the strength of the vessel." – Dr. Nick "Personal development is about learning, but it's also about unlearning the programs that have kept you stuck." – Dr. Nicole   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Philip Gulley, Peterson, and Sweet Miche share their personal journeys of unlearning traditional theological concepts and reflect on what makes Quakerism a meaningful path to a more authentic faith. Gulley highlights fear as a significant motivator for religious beliefs and a tool for control and how the current political moment is a masterfully evil manipulation of human fears. Gulley also offers his perspective on the continued usefulness of organized religion, emphasizing the importance of bringing people together, respecting personal autonomy, and aligning its social efforts with the ethos of Jesus and radical love. Philip Gulley is a Quaker pastor, writer, and speaker from Danville, Indiana.  Gulley has written 22 books, including the Harmony series recounting life in the eccentric Quaker community of Harmony, Indiana, and the best-selling Porch Talk essay series. Gulley's memoir, I Love You, Miss Huddleston: And Other Inappropriate Longings of My Indiana Childhood, was a finalist for the Thurber Prize for American Hor.  In addition, Gulley, with co-author James Mulholland, shared their progressive spirituality in the books If Grace Is True and If God Is Love, followed by Gulley's books If the Church Were Christian and The Evolution of Faith. In  Living the Quaker Way: Timeless Wisdom For a Better Life Today, Gulley offers the opportunity to participate in a world where the values of the Quaker way bring equity, peace, healing, and hope. In his most recently published non-fiction work, Unlearning God: How Unbelieving Helped Me Believe, Gulley describes the process of spiritual growth, especially the re-interpretation of the earliest principles we learned about God. Resources Here are some resources for friends in the process of unlearning and seeking spiritual growth: Therapy Therapy and spiritual growth can be deeply complementary. While therapy doesn't typically provide spiritual direction, it creates fertile ground for unlearning and spiritual development. You can use online therapist directories to find a therapist by location, insurance, specialty, cost, and more at Psychology Today, TherapyDen, or Open Path Psychotherapy Collective. Poets and Authors Audre Lorde is a profoundly influential Black lesbian feminist writer, poet, theorist, and civil rights activist. Her work powerfully explores the intersections of race, class, gender, sexuality, and ability. You can read her essays in Sister Outsider and her "biomythography" Zami: A New Spelling of My Name. Federico Garcia Lorca is one of Spain's most important poets and playwrights of the 20th century. His work is celebrated for its intense lyricism, surreal imagery, and passionate exploration of themes like love, death, desire, oppression, and Andalusian culture, particularly in works like Gypsy Ballads and plays such as Blood Wedding and The House of Bernarda Alba. Walt Whitman is a central figure in American poetry, often called the "Bard of Democracy." Whitman revolutionized poetry with his use of free verse and expansive lines. His lifelong work, Leaves of Grass, celebrates the individual, democracy, nature, the body, spirituality, and the interconnectedness of all life, aiming to capture the diverse spirit of America. Mary Oliver is an American poet who focuses on the natural world, particularly the landscapes of New England.  Her work finds wonder, spirituality, and profound insight in quiet observation and moments of attention to nature, inviting readers to connect more deeply with the world around them. Christian Wiman is a contemporary American poet and essayist known for his unflinching honesty and intellectual rigor in exploring themes of faith, doubt, suffering (often drawing on his own experience with chronic illness), mortality, and love.  Joy Harjo is a member of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation and served as the first Native American U.S. Poet Laureate. Her work weaves together Indigenous history, spirituality, myth, social justice, resilience, and a deep connection to the land, often infused with the rhythms of music and prayer. Akwake Emezi is a non-binary Nigerian writer and artist known for their powerful, innovative, and often genre-bending work. Their novels (like Freshwater and The Death of Vivek Oji) explore complex themes of identity, spirituality (often drawing on Igbo cosmology), gender, mental health, trauma, and the body, challenging conventional Western frameworks of selfhood. Elaine Pagels is a renowned historian of religion, particularly noted for her scholarship on early Christianity and Gnosticism. Her groundbreaking book, The Gnostic Gospels, brought non-canonical early Christian texts to wider attention, revealing the diversity of early Christian thought and exploring how political and social contexts shaped religious history and scripture. LGBTQ+ film festivals are events dedicated to showcasing films by, for, or about queer individuals and communities. They serve as vital platforms for representation, providing visibility for filmmakers and stories often marginalized in mainstream media. These festivals (like Frameline, Outfest, NewFest, and countless others globally) are also important spaces for community building and celebrating queer culture. Quaker Voluntary Service is a year-long program rooted in Quaker values. It brings young adults together to live in an intentional community, work full-time in social justice-focused non-profit organizations, and engage in spiritual exploration and leadership development, putting faith into action. Listener Responses We hear directly from Roxanne, who unlearned the idea that any single group holds the definitive spiritual answer, instead discovering valuable truths across diverse practices and traditions through their continuous seeking. On Facebook, friends shared their experience wrestling with the traditional ideas about God they grew up with. Many people mentioned letting go of a harsh or judgmental image of God, questioning core doctrines, and letting go of feelings of unworthiness.

The Mindful Healers Podcast with Dr. Jessie Mahoney and Dr. Ni-Cheng Liang

This milestone episode is a powerful and heartfelt exploration of one of the most tender and transformative topics: self-worth.  So many physicians struggle with valuing themselves, charging fairly for their services, and letting go of guilt rooted in self-sacrifice. This episode is inspired by real conversations with courageous clients and a vulnerable moment of my own It is is a call to unlearn the deeply embedded scarcity mindset that pervades our training—and to embrace sustainability, worthiness, and alignment instead. If you've ever questioned what you're allowed to charge, how to talk about your value, or whether you're worthy of being paid well for the impact you offer, this episode is for you. Pearls of Wisdom: Scarcity is medicine's default mindset—and it's unsustainable. Unlearning guilt and martyrdom opens the door to peace, passion, and possibility. When we value ourselves and our expertise, others do too. Charging fairly isn't greedy—it's grounded and essential for sustainability. Pricing isn't about market rate or insurance reimbursements. It's about alignment, reciprocity, and choosing what allows you to serve from peace. Undercharging has hidden costs: resentment, burnout, and a devaluation of your work and wisdom. You don't have to choose between helping others and honoring your worth—you can do both, intentionally and mindfully. Reflection Questions: Where do guilt and fear show up in your decisions about money, time, or value? What would change if you trusted in your impact and led from self-worth? What would peace charge? The mindful moment  will help you notice what arises when you hear conversations about money, scarcity, and value. It's an invitation to pause, breathe, and bring compassion to your experience. If this conversation resonates, know that this is the kind of deep, transformational work I do in my coaching practice and at retreats.  If you're struggling to charge what you're worth, to feel valued, or to hold boundaries from a place of alignment, I invite you to explore working with me one-on-one or in a small group.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into a concept That I call, "Head, Heart, Hands" – which is a powerful approach to personal transformation that flips how we typically try to change our lives. Instead of white-knuckling our way through external behavior changes, I explain why it's crucial to start with the internal landscape of our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and stories.Drawing from my own journey and some wisdom from spiritual smarty-pants like Paramahansa Yogananda, I share how real, lasting change happens when we align our mind and heart first!Think of it like this: if your head and heart are truly on board with a change, your hands (aka: your actions) are way more likely to naturally follow. So, it's not about forcing yourself to stop doing something, but more like shifting your internal perspective - so gradually, but inevitably, the old behavior just doesn't make sense anymore. I talk about how our ego mind loves to keep us in those old familiar patterns, while also crafting stories of guilt, shame, and limitation. But here's the truth: Who you really are is not broken and doesn't need to be fixed. What we need is to unlearn some of the survival strategies that no longer serve us, and also take time to tune into that quieter, loving voice inside us that knows our true potential. If you're feeling stuck trying to change something in your life - whether it's a health habit, a relationship pattern, or a professional goal - this episode offers a helpful way of approaching things. Start by getting curious about your inner world.Ask yourself, “What thoughts are driving my current behavior? What beliefs are holding me back? What stories have I been telling about myself? What identity am I willing to let go?”Remember, “the assignment is alignment” and when your head and heart believe in the change you want to make, your hands will take action to make it happen! KEY TAKEAWAYS:​• Change your thoughts first, your behaviors will naturally follow.•​ “The assignment is alignment.”• Internal alignment matters more than external willpower.•​ Spiritual growth happens when our heads and hearts connect.• Love transforms things quietly; ego/fear maintains old patterns loudly.• Unlearning limiting beliefs can unlock our true potential.• Our identity shapes our actions, even more powerfully than pure discipline.• The Nest - Group Mentoring ProgramBIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.
