Someone hits unsubscribe. Someone says "take me off your list." Someone tells you the postcards are "too much."

A few (or even just one) loud voice whether it be positive or negative can change what you're doing, but should they? We unpack a lot in this discussion.

We need to talk about the comments. The comments about weight loss, weight gain, "you look so good," "have you lost weight," the ones that feel like compliments but land somewhere else entirely. In this episode of UNSUBSCRIBE™, Ginny shares a memory that resurfaced recently and unpacks why body commentary, even the "nice" kind, keeps us tethered to an outdated value system, especially in the middle of the GLP-1 cultural moment. With insight drawn from a close family member's work as a dietitian specializing in eating disorder recovery, Ginny walks through how to apply the UNSUBSCRIBE™ Filter to body talk: what to MUTE, what to BLOCK, and most importantly, what to SWAP it for instead. If you've ever commented on someone's body (or even your own) and wondered if you should have, this episode is for you.

Do you ever feel like stuff just keeps appearing in your home? You buy another white shirt because you forgot you already own three. You grab dry shampoo "just in case" and come home to find a small collection already waiting. What if the real problem isn't that you have too much stuff—it's that you don't know what you have? In this episode of Clutter Free Academy, Kathi Lipp and Grace Church introduce Low Buy July—a realistic, grace-filled approach to mindful spending that's about awareness, not deprivation. Unlike extreme no-spend challenges, Low Buy July invites you to hit pause on non-essential purchases while still living your real life. What Listeners Will Discover This episode walks through exactly how to prepare for and thrive during a month of intentional spending. Kathi and Grace share practical strategies for reducing impulse purchases while still taking care of what matters—from birthday celebrations to necessary prescriptions. The Discovery Phase Before cutting back on spending, it helps to know what you already own. Kathi introduces several "treasure hunts" to help listeners rediscover forgotten resources: Freezer Archaeology: That mystery meat from 2022? Time to either use it or lose it. A full freezer inventory helps you plan meals from what you have. Beauty Product Graveyard: Half-used shampoos, impulse lipsticks, and face masks you've been "saving"—July is the month to finally use them up. Closet Rediscovery: Pull out clothes you haven't worn, create outfits, and hang them outside your closet as a visual reminder to actually wear them. Craft Supply Challenge: Cluttery people love to start new projects. This month, practice being a finisher instead. Setting Yourself Up for Success Small friction can make a big difference. Kathi and Grace offer these practical tips: Remove Amazon from your phone (you can put it back later) Unsubscribe from retail emails Check your subscribe-and-save settings Let your Amazon cart build up and trim it before ordering Use grocery pickup to avoid impulse buys in-store Put wanted items on a waiting list—if you still want it in August, buy it then What You're Still Buying Low Buy July isn't about deprivation. Safety items, prescription medicine, true groceries, and birthday celebrations are all still on the table. The goal is accommodation, not elimination. Key Takeaways Low Buy July is about awareness, not acquiring—understanding where your money goes Friction is your friend when it comes to impulse spending Your library is an underutilized resource for summer activities, passes, and entertainment Getting leverage over one spending category builds confidence to tackle others Planning meals backwards (from what you have) turns the challenge into a creative game Ready to join the challenge?

You don't need to do more to move forward. Sometimes, the real breakthrough comes from deciding what to stop carrying. Ginny Priem is a keynote speaker, TEDx presenter, master certified coach, bestselling author, and creator of the UNSUBSCRIBE™ framework — a practical system designed to help high-achievers reclaim their time, energy, and focus without losing momentum. In this episode, Ginny shares how burnout, over-functioning, and personal heartbreak led her to rethink success entirely. Together with Dr. Sarah E. Brown, she unpacks why high-performing women often overextend themselves, struggle to set boundaries, and stay trapped in patterns of constant output. You'll also learn the four pillars of the UNSUBSCRIBE™ framework — Block, Mute, Swap, and Manage — and how to use them to create more alignment, clarity, and sustainable success.   What you will learn from this episode: Why high-achieving women often confuse busyness with productivity — and how to shift out of hustle culture. The difference between protecting your peace and isolating yourself from meaningful connection. How the UNSUBSCRIBE™ framework helps you reclaim time, energy, and focus.   "When you start to remove things that no longer serve you, what you notice is it starts to create space for the things that are more aligned."  – Ginny Priem   Topics Covered: 02:05 – Ginny's corporate leadership background and the personal turning point that changed her career path 04:10 – Why the UNSUBSCRIBE™ framework was created and how it helps high-achievers reclaim time and energy 05:48 – Understanding the four pillars: Block, Mute, Swap, and Manage 06:08 – How "manage" helps reduce overwhelm, improve efficiency, and eliminate unnecessary work 11:18 – How recovering people-pleasers can begin setting healthier boundaries 12:02 – Communicating boundaries clearly without damaging relationships 13:42 – Why women tend to overextend, over-carry, and struggle to ask for help 17:20 – Why the UNSUBSCRIBE™ framework resonates strongly with women leaders today 18:08 – Final reflections on releasing what no longer fits and making room for what matters most   Key Takeaways: "High-achieving women are shifting away from hustle culture and toward productivity versus busyness." – Ginny Priem "The people that respect you and your boundaries will see them as a door to keep them in, not walls to keep them out." – Ginny Priem  "I think women tend to feel like they need to carry more." – Ginny Priem    Ways to Connect with Ginny Priem: Website: www.ginnypriem.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ginnypriem Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ginnypriem/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginny-priem-8a87248/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ginnypriem   Ways to Connect with Sarah E.

Send us Fan MailMost people spend their entire lives trying to become someone.Better habits. Better discipline. Better choices. The goal is always out ahead of them — something to reach, something to earn, something to finally become if they just try hard enough.But what if the becoming was never the work?What if the version of you that you're chasing isn't ahead of you — but underneath all the noise you've been mistaking for your identity?That's what this episode is about. Not motivation. Not strategies. The quieter, stranger truth: the self you want to inhabit already exists. It's not a future destination. It's the assumption you haven't let yourself hold yet.In this episode:✦ Why "becoming" keeps you in a state of lack — and what to do instead ✦ The difference between trying to change and choosing to remember ✦ What Neville Goddard actually meant by "assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled" ✦ The identity gap — why your behavior keeps defaulting to who you used to be ✦ One quiet practice for stepping into the self that already exists

For many of us, daily life is defined by a near-constant stream of decisions, from what to buy on Amazon to what to watch on Netflix. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz consider how we came to see endless selection as a fundamental right. The hosts discuss “The Age of Choice,” a book by the historian Sophia Rosenfeld, which traces how our fixation with the freedom to choose has evolved over the centuries. Today, an abundance of choice in one sphere often masks a lack of choice in others—and, with so much focus on individual rather than collective decision-making, the glut of options can contribute to a profound sense of alienation. “When all you do is choose, choose, choose, what you do is end up by yourself,” Cunningham says. “Putting yourself with people seems to be one of the salves.”This episode originally aired on March 13, 2025. Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Could Anyone Keep Track of This Year's Microtrends?” by Danielle Cohen (The Cut)“The Age of Choice: A History of Freedom in Modern Life,” by Sophia Rosenfeld“The Federalist Papers,” by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay“What Does It Take to Quit Shopping?

Ginny was featured on We're All Insane (86K+ views on YouTube and climbing), sat down with Kati Morton, and joined Amy Edwards for a conversation about navigating online criticism. And in between all of it? A DM calling her a horrible person and a comment calling her "stuped" (yes, spelled exactly like that).In this episode, Ginny pulls back the curtain on what a big week actually looks like behind the scenes. This includes the wins, the weird DMs, and the real-time application of her UNSUBSCRIBE™ filter to stay grounded when the volume gets loud.If you've ever been afraid to put yourself out there, struggled with online criticism, or wondered how creators handle the noise, this one's for you.In this episode:Why You're My Favorite is having a second life four years laterThe Apple Podcasts review that stopped Ginny in her tracksHow to handle hate DMs without losing yourselfApplying UNSUBSCRIBE™: BLOCK, MUTE, SWAP, MANAGE—to online criticismThe one rule Ginny uses to limit how much negativity she absorbs per dayMentioned in this episode:We're All Insane podcast: LINKKati Morton's podcast: LINKAmy Edwards' podcast: LINKYou're My Favorite on Amazon: LINKConnect with Ginny:Instagram: @ginnypriemSubstack: ginnypriem.substack.comYouTube: LINKSupport our sponsor:ine+ nutrition: Save 15% with code GIN15Keywords:handling online hate, dealing with negative comments creators, public figure mental health, how to respond to trolls, online criticism, being in the public eye, creator burnout, Ginny Priem, UNSUBSCRIBE, You're My Favorite book, Katie Morton podcast, We're All Insane podcast, Amy Edwards

Ginny Priem is a number one bestselling author, master certified coach, top keynote speaker, and host of the “Unsubscribe” podcast. She spent more than 20 years in corporate leadership and nearly 20 years in the medical aesthetics industry before turning those hard lessons into a movement. She is the author of “You're My Favorite”, the guided journal “I'm My Favorite”, and her newest book “Unsubscribe: Why Letting Go Is the Secret to Getting Ahead”.This is Ginny's second appearance on the show — she was last here in episode 194 — and this time, she came to Austin in person! The conversation covers the book, but it goes well beyond it: toxic workplaces, narcissistic relationships, going no contact with a parent, comparison on social media, and what it really means to set a boundary vs. burn everything down.Practical, honest, and at times deeply personal. This one hits.In this episode, we cover:Where Unsubscribe came from — and why Ginny changed her entire brand, podcast name, and identity around the conceptWhy unsubscribing is not flippantly walking away — it's a filter that requires critical thinking, action, and accountabilityThe four pillars of Unsubscribe: Block, Mute, Swap, and Manage — and how to know which one applies to your situationTreating your time and energy as a currency just as valuable as money — and what it costs you when you don'tSunk cost fallacy in relationships — why we stay too long and what happens when we finally let goWhat it looked like to have everything together on the outside while completely unraveling inside — shingles in her 30s, hair loss, abnormal skin lesions — and what that stress was actually doing to her bodyComing home to find out her partner was living a double life — and what she did nextLearning to trust herself again after ignoring her gut for years — and why that's the real foundation of everythingConnect with GinnyPodcast: open.spotify.com/show/0UVRo0EOi8bk4Omtb6qWHJSubstack: https://substack.com/@ginnypriemYoutube: www.youtube.com/@ginnypriem Instagram: www.instagram.com/ginnypriem/Website: ginnypriem.com/Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/ginny-priem-8a87248/Previous episode with Ginny: https://youtu.be/kXpWGKwR06A?si=EsAZZ38TtoP2vOEEGet the BookUnsubscribe: Why Letting Go Is the Secret to Getting Ahead Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Subscribe to the newsletter:https://mailchi.mp/amyedwards/sign-up-to-amys-newsletterCheck out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠ - https://amyedwards.info/Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedward - ⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/realamyedwards/Fight For Her: https://www.fightfortheforgotten.org/fight-for-herTikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠ -  https://www.tiktok.com/@themagicbabe?lang=enYouTube:@TheAmyEdwardsShow -  https://www.youtube.com/c/theamyedwardsshowPodcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠ - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-amy-edwards-show/id1543432633Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠ - https://best-you-life.teachable.com/p/the-ageless-mindset-the-ultimate-guide-to-look-younger-feel-happierFull Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠ - https://best-you-life.teachable.com/p/the-youthfulness-hack Amy's hair by ⁠https://www.thecollectiveatx.com⁠Podcast editing by https://podcastmagician.com/Get my FREE course "The Ageless Mindset: The Ultimate Guide to Look Younger and Feel Happier!"

If you've ever struggled with people pleasing, wanting to be liked, or changing yourself to keep the peace—this episode is going to hit close to home.Someone once told me I was polarizing. I said nothing back. Because at that point in my life, being liked was everything. And polarizing felt like proof I was failing at it. It took years of real work to understand it wasn't an insult at all. It was the most accurate thing anyone had ever said about me.In this episode I get honest about that moment, what the need to be liked actually costs you, and why authenticity and universal approval cannot exist at the same time. I ask the question most people won't sit with: would you rather be liked for who you're not, or disliked for who you are?This is for the woman who has softened her opinion before saying it out loud. Who laughed at something that wasn't funny. Who has been called too much, too direct, too intense ... and believed it long enough to do something about it she now regrets.SPONSORSine+ Nutrition — 15% off with code GIN15Thrifty Traveler — $20 off your first year with code GINNYPRIEM—CONNECT WITH GINNYSubstack — UNSUBSCRIBE with Ginny PriemInstagramLinkedInBook Ginny to speakYou're My Favorite—the bookUNSUBSCRIBE book—If this episode gave you something, leave a rating on Apple Podcasts or a comment on Spotify.

What if saying "no" was actually the key to a healthier, more aligned life? In this episode of the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., Linda sits down with Ginny Priem — keynote speaker, master certified life coach, author, and creator of the UNSUBSCRIBE framework — for a powerful conversation about boundaries, burnout, people-pleasing, and the emotional cost of constantly saying yes. In a culture that glorifies hustle, overcommitment, and constant availability, many people are left feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from themselves. Ginny shares why boundaries are not selfish, why saying no is about clarity rather than conflict, and how learning to protect your energy can completely transform your relationships, confidence, and success. Linda and Ginny dive into the hidden toll of overgiving, the guilt many women feel when setting limits, and how to let go of the expectations, habits, and obligations that no longer align with who you are becoming. If you've been stuck in burnout, struggling to prioritize yourself, or feeling pulled in too many directions, this episode will give you permission to stop abandoning yourself in the name of being everything for everyone else. In This Episode Why so many high-achieving women struggle with boundaries The connection between burnout and people-pleasing How to say no without guilt or shame Why boundaries create clarity, confidence, and freedom The emotional cost of overgiving How to recognize what no longer aligns with your life Why sustainable success requires protecting your energy The mindset shift that changes how you view "no" forever About the Guest Ginny Priem is a keynote speaker, master certified life coach, author, and creator of the UNSUBSCRIBE framework, a transformational approach designed to help people break free from burnout, overwhelm, and patterns of overcommitment. Through her speaking, coaching, and writing, Ginny helps individuals reclaim clarity, confidence, and alignment by learning how to set healthy boundaries and stop living for everyone else's expectations.

A Note from James:Imagine going on Shark Tank in front of Mark Cuban, Mr. Wonderful, Lori Greiner, Robert Herjavec, and the rest of the Sharks. You're offering 10% of your business for $700,000, which values the company at $7 million. They all say no. Then, a few years later, Amazon buys your company for a billion dollars.That's gotta feel really good, and that's the experience of our next guest, Jamie Siminoff.Jamie built the company behind the video doorbell that lets you see who's at your door—Ring—and helped turn a simple household object into a home security platform. He went on Shark Tank in 2013, didn't get a deal, kept building anyway, and eventually sold Ring to Amazon.Jamie has a book coming out right now called Ding Dong: How Ring Went from Shark Tank Reject to Everyone's Front Door. What really impressed me about Jamie was the simplicity of all his business ideas, since this was his fourth business. A doorbell you can answer from your phone. A way to turn voicemail into text. A tool to unsubscribe from unwanted emails. The kind of ideas that make people say, “Someone must have already done that.” But we talk about this very thing and how critical it is for entrepreneurs to get over these feelings of like, "Oh, I can't do that." That's the lesson. Sometimes the obvious problem is still unsolved. And sometimes the person who wins is the one naive enough—or stubborn enough—to fix it anyway. Episode Description:James sits down with Ring founder Jamie Siminoff to talk about one of the great modern startup stories: a rejected Shark Tank pitch, a product investors dismissed as “just a doorbell,” and an eventual billion-dollar acquisition by Amazon. But the episode is not just about the sale. It's about how entrepreneurs see problems before markets know what to call them.Jamie explains why investors misunderstood Ring at first. They looked at it as a doorbell business, not a home security company. That framing made the market look tiny. But customers were already showing something different: they wanted to know who was at the door, feel safer, and use video in a new way around the home.The conversation also moves into Jamie's earlier companies, including PhoneTag and Unsubscribe.com, and what those taught him about declining markets, customer behavior, and the difference between a clever product and a durable business. From there, James and Jamie talk about AI, why software is easier to build than ever, why that does not make startups easy, and why simple pain points still matter.What makes this episode useful is Jamie's clarity: don't start with the technology. Start with the problem. If something is broken, fix it. And don't automatically assume that because an idea sounds obvious, someone has already solved it well.What You'll Learn:Why Ring looked like a tiny doorbell business to investors—but became a massive home security company.What Jamie learned from being rejected on Shark Tank while already showing real sales traction.Why simple ideas are often dismissed precisely because they seem too obvious.The difference between being an “inventor entrepreneur” and a market-first operator.Why declining markets can make even beloved products hard to scale.How AI changes the cost of building software, but not the difficulty of building a valuable business.Why Jamie believes entrepreneurs should focus on problems and solutions, not technology for its own sake.Timestamped Chapters:[02:00] Jamie on why a doorbell sounded like a “steam engine” idea[02:39] A Note from James: from Shark Tank rejection to Amazon acquisition[04:03] What Jamie does now inside Amazon[04:32] Looking back at the Shark Tank pitch[05:51] Why the Sharks misunderstood Ring's market[06:44] Doorbell company or security company?[07:45] Why obvious ideas are hard to see in real time[08:22] The objections investors kept raising[10:10] Simple ideas, doubt, and the fear that “someone already did this”[10:50] The hardest period after Shark Tank[11:43] PhoneTag and the voicemail-to-text opportunity[12:31] Why declining markets are hard businesses[13:16] Building products you personally want to use[14:00] Jamie as an inventor entrepreneur[14:33] Unsubscribe.com and the “gray mail” problem[16:27] The path from earlier startups to Edison Junior[17:05] How Ring came from a garage problem[17:40] Jamie's lifelong habit of fixing what's broken[19:14] Why naivete can be an entrepreneurial advantage[20:19] James and Jamie on Claude Code and AI app-building[21:29] Why AI's “brain” has outrun its scaffolding[22:44] Coding may be easier—but deployment is still clunky[23:37] The future of building apps without seeing the sausage made[26:25] Why Jamie might have sold Ring early for far less[27:52] Hardware is ugly until it gets big[28:47] Why investors are often too early or too late[29:58] OpenAI, Anthropic, and whether AI becomes a commodity[31:48] Why Jamie expects another major AI shift[32:39] What happens when you raise VC money[33:18] Swinging big or dying fast[34:25] Why Amazon bought Ring[35:34] Choosing Amazon instead of an IPO[36:23] How life changed after the sale[37:41] Ring's AI work on lost dogs[39:14] Why people do not always use obvious solutions[40:38] How Ring's lost-dog feature works[41:23] Privacy, consent, and community video[41:45] Fire Watch and using Ring cameras during wildfires[42:57] Why Ring focuses on safer neighborhoods, not cameras[43:48] Building a startup in the AI era[45:03] Why SaaS is not dead[46:10] Where Jamie would look for startup ideas now[47:47] Why people will still pay for useful small software tools[48:23] Ring's app store and the long tail of camera use cases[49:55] Horse monitoring, elder care, and unexpected AI applications[51:41] Shark Tank relationships after the Ring sale[52:29] Jamie's advice for standing out on Shark TankAdditional Resources:Ding Dong: How Ring Went from Shark Tank Reject to Everyone's Front DoorRing official “About” page.Jamie Siminoff's LinkedIn profile.Amazon's article on Ring Search Party for Dogs.Ring Search Party / Fire Watch information page.TechCrunch coverage of Unsubscribe.com.
