Description:In this episode of the Compared to Who? podcast, Heather Creekmore continues her Fear Free Fall series with a deep dive into the fear of failure.

Heather shares personal experiences, practical examples from her coaching, and biblical encouragement to help listeners break free from the grip of performance-based living and find freedom in Christ. Key Topics: Difference between perfectionism and fear of failure Identity issues at the root of both struggles How fear of failure shows up as avoidance, hesitation, and "analysis paralysis" The role of “success” as an idol and how it influences body image Processing where personal standards and God’s standards diverge God’s grace as the answer to our endless striving for worth Practical encouragement for stepping out in faith, even when failure feels likely Encouragement:Heather challenges listeners to reflect on where fear of failure might be holding them back and offers gospel-centered strategies to reframe their thinking and experience freedom in Christ.

Visit today's blog post here. In this week's episode, I'm sharing about a recent dating experience that left me feeling embarrassed, and what it reminded me about business, rejection, and why showing up with your whole heart is still the bravest thing you can do. It takes vulnerability to be visible in love, business, or life. I find that MANY women who are successful at most things in life struggle with the reality that in business, there are SO MANY MORE chances for micro-failures.  Putting your heart out there online is nothing to be embarrassed about. It's something to be proud of. So few women do it. It's scary to get visible. To be seen. To risk connection. But it's the only way to live fully as a heart centered woman. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

What if I told you that the eating disorder you're battling isn't really about food at all—it's about rejection? In this deeply personal episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own rejection story and how those painful moments shaped my relationship with food, my body, and control. From being told to "get in line by size" at dance practice to corporate disappointments and broken friendships, I'm sharing the rejection wounds that led me down the path of disordered eating. Here's the truth: perfectionism is rejection prevention. It's the way your brain tries to avoid the emotional trauma of feeling "not enough." And your eating disorder? It offers the illusion of protection—a false comfort that promises to fix everything and prevent future rejection. But the only thing it really does is lead to the deepest rejection of all: rejecting your own worthiness. Today, we're dissecting rejection together. I'm meeting you in that painful place so you can discover what I've learned: your rejection story can become your redemption story. Rejection isn't the end—it's God's protection, His redirection, and often the most powerful motivator for transformation. If you've been shrinking yourself to fit into spaces you were rejected from, this episode is your invitation to take up space again, feel free again, and reject the rejection that was never yours to carry. What You'll Learn: [02:30] The moment everything changed: My dance practice rejection story and how one comment shifted my entire relationship with my body [05:00] Why perfectionism is actually rejection prevention—and how it fuels your eating disorder [07:15] The cycle that keeps you stuck: Fear of rejection → False control → Isolation → Disordered eating behaviors → Reinforced rejection fears [09:45] How early experiences shape your relationship with safety (and why you desperately want to be seen, heard, and loved) [12:00] Protection strategies your brain uses: Numbing through restriction, creating physical armor through body changes, food rituals as predictable comfort [15:30] My personal rejection timeline: From Disney on Ice to corporate promotions, college boyfriends to broken friendships—the moments that shaped my story [18:00] The powerful reframe: Rejection is God's protection and redirection. What would you have missed if those doors had stayed open? [20:30] How recovered people reject rejection—practical steps to heal and move forward [23:00] The three questions to ask when rejection voices show up: "So what? Says who? Who cares?" Key Takeaways:

In this powerful closing moment of Jesus' public ministry, we stand at the edge of the cross — where agony and glory collide.In John 12:27–50, Jesus reveals that the hour of His suffering is not a tragedy to be avoided, but the very triumph of God's redemptive plan.Pastor Thomas walks through four scenes that uncover the meaning of the cross:The Cross — where the Son of God trembles under divine wrath yet glorifies the Father in perfect obedience.The Light — where Jesus pleads with the world to believe before the darkness falls.The Rejection — where unbelief fulfills prophecy and exposes the blindness of the human heart.The Summons — where Christ's final public cry calls sinners to step into His light.This sermon invites us to see that the cross is not only the place of judgment and victory — it's also the magnet of God's mercy.And for all who believe, it's a reminder that agony and glory still walk side by side: our suffering is never wasted, our witness must never be silent, and the day is coming when every wound will shine with the glory of the Lamb who was slain.“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain — to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing.”(Revelation 5:12)

Has God been an absent parent in the lives of his children and Creation? Is this why most of our intimate relationships are so hurtful? Are our intimate relationships designed to facilitate self-individuation or self-actualization, as Jungian individuation suggests, which could potentially lead us back to divine individuation or integration with the source of all that is?

Episode Summary:This week, Michelle dares you to do something most people avoid — embrace the unknown.After 17 years in construction, Michelle opens up about what it's really like to walk away from stability and step into filmmaking with no guarantees. She shares how reading about Stoicism helped her stop waiting for certainty and start trusting action instead.Backed by neuroscience, this episode breaks down why our brains panic when things feel uncertain — and how leaning into discomfort can literally rewire you for resilience.You'll also hear from two past She Who Dares Wins guests who've lived this dare in their own lives:

Rejection and burnout recovery start with identity, not achievement. In this episode, learn how Identity-Level Recalibration helps you reframe failure as feedback, pain as purpose, and rejection as the setup for your next becoming.Rejection hurts — not just emotionally, but neurologically. When failure strikes, your brain processes the pain the same way it registers physical injury. That's why the sting of “no” can feel like impact. But the difference between collapse and clarity lies in how you interpret that pain.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks how Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) transforms the pain of rejection into refinement. Drawing from neuroscience research on the anterior cingulate cortex and real-life application, she explains how ILR retrains the nervous system to interpret pain as feedback — not finality.When your identity is rooted in performance, every setback feels personal. But when your identity is anchored in truth, pain becomes information. You start to see rejection not as failure, but as direction — a refining process that strengthens what's authentic and releases what's not.You'll also hear the story of Sara Blakely, the founder of Spanx, who used every “no” as data. Her ability to convert rejection into innovation wasn't about resilience; it was about reframing. By treating failure as feedback, she turned obstacles into clarity — proof that the pain that exposed her also grew her.This isn't another mindset tactic or productivity hack. ILR is the root-level recalibration that allows high-capacity humans to lead from peace, not performance — to interpret pain through identity, not insecurity.Today's Micro Recalibration:“Where have I taken rejection personally instead of purposefully?” Write this down. Then remind yourself: “This pain isn't proof I'm off course. It's refining who I'm becoming.”If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Her journey from aspiring lawyer to CEO is a story of perseverance and adaptability, proving that leadership isn't about following a straight path, it's about learning, evolving, and leading with both humility and conviction.

In this powerful episode, Heather Creekmore continues October’s "Fear Free Fall” series by digging deep into the often-hidden fear of rejection and how it influences our lives. She unpacks how perfectionism and people-pleasing are tightly related to our need to feel accepted and loved. Through personal stories, relatable examples, and biblical truth, Heather unravels the underlying self-protective strategies we adopt—and how the gospel offers real freedom and grace. Key Topics Covered: What is the Fear of Rejection?Heather explores how this fear drives us and manifests as perfectionism and people-pleasing. She explains that these are self-protective strategies formed by our desire for secure love, belonging, and worth. Perfectionism:Often, we think, “If I get it right, then I’ll be enough.” Heather shares a personal story from college when a single missed typo made her feel immense shame, showing how perfectionism can lead to exhaustion and shame rather than peace. People-Pleasing:The fear that “If I make everyone happy, I’ll be safe.” Heather discusses how people-pleasing is not true peacekeeping or biblical peacemaking and how it can even impact our ability to follow God’s call if the opinions of others control us. Where Does This Come From?Heather highlights how these tendencies usually aren’t intentional—they’re often formed in childhood, at school, or through life experiences that taught us we’d be safer if we kept everyone happy or never made mistakes. How It Affects Others:Unchecked, perfectionism and people-pleasing can also lead us to have unrealistic expectations of others, continuing the cycle for those around us. The Gospel’s Answer:True freedom is found not in earning love and acceptance from people (or God), but in embracing grace. Heather reminds us that Jesus took on ultimate rejection so we can be fully accepted by God, no matter how we perform. A Challenge to Listeners:Heather encourages us to check our motives—are we striving for approval from people or resting in God’s approval? She challenges listeners to shift their perspective from a “people-big, God-small” view to a “God-big, people-small” mindset for greater confidence and peace. Memorable Quotes: “Perfectionism is a fear of inadequacy dressed up as excellence.” “People pleasing is not biblical peacemaking—it’s a form of self-protection.” “You can never be perfect or please everyone, but you are already fully accepted in Jesus.” “Freedom comes when you realize you can’t earn grace—it's a gift.” Resources & Next Steps: Visit heathercreekmore.com for free resources, courses, coaching, and Heather’s books Sign up for the free 10-day encouragement email series!

Emotionally, feeling misunderstood and powerless is really hard.” "You have a right to speak up." "Not all friendships last forever." "Life is messy. Friendships are messy." “Body doubling is such a beautiful way to borrow someone else's nervous system to regulate.” “Sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. It's how you're wired.

In this heartfelt episode, Kelly opens up about navigating relationships in a time of deep political division. She shares how differing views have tested some of her closest connections and what it means to lead with empathy, compassion, and understanding when opinions clash. Through honest reflections and personal stories, Kelly shares how we can bridge divides, have healthier conversations, and see beyond labels. Because even in disagreement, love, respect, and perspective can still coexist. [1:16] When Views Divide “There are some close relationships of mine that have been, I guess, torn apart in a sense because of different political views. And I hate it. It makes things very uncomfortable for everybody.” [2:33] The Power in My Voice “I'm a privileged white American woman, but I do know what's going on. And I have compassion towards those who are going through the things that the laws are restricting them of.” [6:41] Seeing Both Sides “If someone were watching my activity on social media, they'd probably be like, ‘Is she a Democrat? Is she a Republican?' because I can understand both.” [8:09] Connection Through Conversation “I want to encourage you to be able to have healthy conversations with your friends- coming from a place of respect, right? We just want to feel seen and we want to feel heard.” [14:47] Debating Ideas with Charlie Kirk “I listened to one full conversation regarding the Second Amendment and I honestly agreed with some of his thoughts.” [20:46] Beauty of Acceptance “Maybe they're only meant to be in your life for what is it? It's a reason, a season, or a lifetime… But I would rather you try to love everything about that person and just accept them for who they are.” [25:36] Heart Over Ego “Let's just create more love. Love wins. Act and think from a heart space. Hold space for other people's thoughts and opinions. Let's get out of our own way.” Connect with Kelly here: Follow Me on Instagram at @chaselifewithkelly - https://www.instagram.com/chaselifewithkelly/ Follow Me on TikTok at @iamkellychase - https://www.tiktok.com/@iamkellychase _t=8WCIP546ma6&_r=1 Subscribe to My YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNqhN0CXWVATKfUjwrm65-g Work with Me: Private 1:1 Business & Mindset Coaching- More Details- https://www.chaselifewithkelly.com/private-coaching  Rejection to Redemption - More Details: https://www.chaselifewithkelly.com/rejection-to-redemption  Online Business Accelerator- More Details: https://www.chaselifewithkelly.com/online-business-accelerator  Money Magnet - More Details: https://www.chaselifewithkelly.com/money-magnet  Goddess Magic Course Bundle - More Details - https://www.chaselifewithkelly.com/goddess-magic Kelly's Favorites   https://linktr.ee/chaselifewithkelly Visit Our Website!  https://www.chaselifewithkelly.com

When Innocence Feels Like Rejection: How Codependent Mothers Misread Their Children What happens when a child's innocent comment gets filtered through the lens of an unhealthy, codependent mom versus a healthy, emotionally attuned mom? The difference can shape not only the child's self-worth but also the generational cycle of codependency. In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, Breakthrough Life Coach and bestselling author, unpacks how unhealed wounds distort a mother's perception of her child's needs and words. An emotionally unhealthy mother, trapped in her own unresolved pain, may perceive an innocent statement like “I wish I could play with you more” as a personal attack—triggering shame, defensiveness, or withdrawal. A healthy mother, however, sees the same comment for what it is: a child's bid for love and connection. This powerful contrast reveals why addressing codependency is not just self-work—it's generational work. If left unchecked, codependency programs children to feel responsible for others' feelings, abandon their own needs, and repeat the same painful patterns in adulthood. Lisa shows you how to break the cycle by teaching: Why codependent programming distorts reality and causes misinterpretation of innocent words. The neuroscience behind why trauma survivors often personalize others' emotions. How healthy mothers validate their child's truth without collapsing into shame or defensiveness. Why breaking free from codependency is the single most important gift you can pass to your children. This episode is a must-listen if you: Grew up with a parent who made you feel guilty for your feelings. Struggle with people-pleasing or fearing rejection. Want to stop codependency from spilling into your parenting or relationships. Are ready to see how your healing ripples into future generations. ✨ Pro tip: Awareness is the first step. When you learn to recognize these patterns, you reclaim your ability to create healthy connections and stop carrying wounds that were never yours to bear. Begin Your Healing Journey: Lisa introduces her signature 12 Week Breakthrough Method—a trauma-informed, neuroscience-based coaching program designed for adult children of narcissistic, neglectful, or emotionally immature parents. Inside the program, you'll discover: Brain retraining techniques rooted in neuroscience. Inner child healing and self-concept reorganization. Journaling prompts and assessments to increase self-awareness. Tools to stop subconscious self-abandonment and live authentically. How to integrate shadow work and break toxic generational patterns. Thousands have transformed their lives with this method—learning to step out of survival mode and into authentic, empowered living.

In this episode of The Daily Windup, I break down how billions in government contracts go unclaimed every year—and how to make sure your business isn't part of that statistic. We walk through the pitch deck process, TRL levels, and the exact details you need to win over DoD evaluators. You'll also learn why following formatting instructions (yes, down to Times New Roman font) could mean the difference between getting funded or being instantly deleted. Federal contracting success isn't luck—it's precision, presentation, and professionalism. Key Takeaways: Every year, billions in government contracts are left on the table because small businesses don't follow simple instructions. Nail your pitch deck by focusing on validation, scalability, and cost savings (save $10M over 5 years, for example). Follow DoD formatting rules to the letter—one wrong file or missing item can get your email deleted instantly. Learn more: https://federalhelpcenter.com/ https://govcongiants.org/

Rejection hurts. Of course, you don’t want to be turned down or ostracized in any way. People who have felt the pain of rejection often avoid situations where they feel they won’t be accepted. Yet, going into something with the expectation that it will happen the same way as it has in the past is […]

You'll learn: Fear of Ruin, Rejection, and Regret: How to stop catastrophizing outcomes and start seeing every experience as progress, not punishment.
