Girl, your vision board isn't broken, your identity is.This week I'm getting real with you about the one thing that actually changes everything when it comes to attracting secure, healthy love: who you're becoming. Because here's the truth, a goal without an identity change is just torture. You can want that loving partnership more than anything (the kind of want that makes you tear up out of nowhere), but if your nervous system still believes you're not enough, you're pressing the gas in a car with no wheels. In this short-but-powerful solo episode, I'm walking you through the identity shifts that have to be true, not logically, but on a nervous system level, to become the securely attached woman who attracts the relationship she actually deserves.Inside the Episode:Why goals and vision boards keep falling flat and the identity work that actually rewires your attachment patternsThe three things your nervous system has to know are true: your worth isn't defined by a relationship, intimacy is safe, and you can trust yourselfHow interdependence (not codependence, not hyper-independence) lets you finally date with an open palm, wanting your person instead of desperately needing themReady to actually do this work? The deep identity, belief, and nervous system work, not just collecting more information. The Empowered. Secure. Loved. Program 6.0 is open for enrollment and spots are filling fast.

Happy Mindset Monday!Some stories don't just inspire you.They challenge you to look at what you're still carrying.In this episode of Living The Sweet Life, I sit down with Quincy Moore, also known as Mr. Resilience, for a conversation about fatherlessness, forgiveness, faith, and the kind of freedom that comes when you stop waiting for an apology to heal. Quincy's work is built around helping people Recognize, Reframe, and Rise through adversity. Quincy shares the life-changing moment when he saw his biological father after almost 30 years and chose forgiveness instead of bitterness. That moment became the foundation for his message, his book, and his mission to help people rise above what tried to break them. In this episode, we explore:What resilience really means when life hurtsWhy forgiveness is not about excusing someone else, but freeing yourselfHow fatherlessness impacts identity, confidence, and connectionWhy presence is one of the greatest gifts a father can giveQuincy's framework: Recognize. Reframe. Rise.How to become the example you never hadIf this episode speaks to you, send it to someone who needs to know their past does not get the final word.

A gentle introduction to the heart of my work: helping women move from disconnection and self-doubt to self-trust, purpose, and inner alignment.There often comes a moment in midlife when the life you built no longer feels like it fully fits.Nothing may be obviously wrong.

In this episode, I'm getting into belief systems, because we don't realise how much they're running the show. They shape how we turn up in our business, how we parent our kids, how we see our partners, how we see ourselves. In this episode, I talk about:Why your beliefs shape everything from your income to how you parentHow core beliefs form in childhood and why so many of them aren't even yoursThe reticular activating system and how your brain filters reality to match what you believeConfirmation bias and why you keep finding evidence for the story you're already telling yourselfHow beliefs become self-fulfilling prophecies in your business and your motherhoodWhy "I am only lovable when I achieve" is running so many high-achieving womenWhy affirmations on their own don't work, and what you actually need to do alongside themThe belief one of my clients was holding that was quietly sabotaging the exact success she said she wantedIf you've ever wondered why you keep self-sabotaging, or why the thing you say you want never seems to arrive, this one's for you. You can't change what you can't see, and this episode is about learning to see it.Resources for youThis is exactly what we're looking at inside my workshop, Success Without Self-Sacrifice, on June 18. It runs like a live coaching session. I'll be pulling people up into the hot seat to uncover the beliefs holding them back, whether you're starting a business, scaling one, going for a leadership role, or wanting to change how you see your kids and yourself.

As an ambitious woman who feels stuck, the problem often isn't that you're not doing enough (if anything, chances are, you're probably overdoing it, lol).In today's episode, we're diving into the hidden reason so many ambitious women struggle to receive more love, money, success, support, and abundance — even after doing all the inner work.We're talking about self-trust, hyper-independence, over-effort in dating & business, and why constantly trying to fix yourself may actually be the thing standing between you and the life you're trying to create.We explore:Why self-trust is more important than confidenceThe real reason why receiving feels unsafe for so many womenHow hyper-independence blocks love, support, and abundanceThe hidden addiction to self-improvement and "fixing" yourselfWhy healing can become another form of perfectionismThe difference between understanding yourself and trusting yourselfHow over-efforting shows up in business, dating, and relationshipsWhy ambitious women often struggle to enjoy the success they've worked so hard to createThe capacity conversation nobody is havingWhy your next level may require less control, not moreHow to become the woman who allows life to meet her halfwayIf you've ever felt exhausted from carrying everything alone, constantly chasing the next breakthrough, or wondering why success still doesn't feel as fulfilling as you expected — this episode is for you.—In this episode, I discuss:00:00 - 05:19 The struggle to receive05:20 - 08:27 Self trust vs confidence11:19 - 13:58 Healing vs. fixing yourself13:59 - 16:26 The purpose of hyper-independence16:27 - 19:32 The importance of expressing yourself19:33 - 22:02 Healing as a journey - not an end goal22:03 - 24:52 The power that comes from trusting yourself24:53 - 27:18 Enjoying life beyond achievement27:19 - 33:02 Capacity to receive & letting go of control33:03 - 37:23 Becoming the woman who receives life—Similar episodes: Ep 160: The hidden cost of being a 'bossbabe' - and the #1 lie women are told about Feminine Energy EP 163: The real reason you keep sabotaging what you say you want – how to stay ‘on track'EP 152: How I am upgrading each aspect of my life this year (+ how you can, too!)—Similar episodes: Ep 160: The hidden cost of being a 'bossbabe' - and the #1 lie women are told about Feminine Energy Ep 157: The Art of Self-Mastery: What it really takes to thrive in life, love, leadership & wealthEP 164: How to be 'that girl' who always gets what she wants - fusing 'IT girl' x 'magnetic queen' energy—I was recently interviewed by my friend Lisa, host of the Real Money Podcast!

Have you ever looked around at your life and realized nothing is necessarily wrong… but something feels off?You're showing up.You're checking the boxes.You're doing what needs to be done.Yet underneath it all, there's a quiet feeling that you've stopped growing.In this episode of The Project You Podcast, I dive into what I call Borderline Complacency—that dangerous middle ground where you're not moving backward, but you're no longer intentionally moving forward either.This isn't about laziness. In fact, many high-achieving women and leaders find themselves here. Life gets busy. Business gets demanding. Family needs increase. And before we know it, we've shifted from living intentionally to simply maintaining.In this conversation, I share my own experiences with recognizing complacency in different seasons of life and the subtle signs that helped me realize I was settling for comfort instead of growth.In This Episode, We Discuss:The difference between contentment and complacencyWhy successful people are often most vulnerable to becoming comfortableThe subtle signs that you've stopped challenging yourselfHow routine can quietly become a limitationThe cost of staying in a season longer than you're meant toWhy growth often requires discomfort and uncertaintyQuestions to ask yourself if you feel stuckPractical ways to reignite momentum in your health, business, relationships, and personal growthQuestions for Reflection:Where have I become comfortable?What have I been tolerating that no longer aligns with who I'm becoming?Am I growing intentionally or simply maintaining?What is one area of my life that needs renewed attention and action?What would the next version of me do differently?Key Takeaway:Complacency rarely announces itself. It sneaks in through comfort, routine, and familiarity. The challenge isn't always avoiding failure—sometimes it's refusing to settle for less growth than you're capable of.Your next level may not require a complete reinvention. It may simply require an honest look at where you've stopped stretching yourself.Connect With MeIf this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend, take a screenshot, and tag me on social media. I'd love to hear where you may be experiencing borderline complacency and what action you're taking to move forward.Remember: Growth doesn't happen by accident. The life you're building is shaped by the small decisions you make every day.Keep becoming. #TheProjectYouPodcast #BorderlineComplacency #PersonalGrowth #Leadership #Mindset #WomenInBusiness #GrowthMindset #PurposeDrivenLife #TheProjectYou #KeepBecomingIn a world where being perfect seems to be the goal- - it's important that we know who's we are & who we are. We aren't called to be perfect - we are called to be better today than yesterday! - that's it. It doesn't have to be quantum leaps, in fact I believe that in the day to day -our little steps in the right directions! I am on a mission to help women become more of who they were created to be and less of who they were told to be.And, that takes intention, that takes action: My goal is to drop some wisdom, bring you resources and that takes community.

Have you ever felt like you've done all the healing work, but something is still getting in the way?In this episode, I sit down with my friend and trusted shamanic practitioner, Jon Rasmussen. Jon is someone I have personally worked with several times over the years, and every session has been transformational. We talk about healing, freedom, empowerment, entities, ancestral patterns, subconscious myths, and why the thing blocking you may not be what you think it is.Jon shares his journey into shamanism, from near-death experiences as a child to training with the Q'ero shamans of Peru. We also talk about Destiny Retrieval, one of my favorite sessions with Jon, and how clearing old wounds, myths, and energetic influences can help you align with the future you actually want to create.In this conversation, Jon shares:Why healing is about freedom, not fixing yourselfHow the universe makes your beliefs and myths rightWhy life may be more like a playground than a schoolWhy guilt, shame, self-judgment, and doubt leave the front door openHow family, cultural, and religious stories influence the reality we experienceWhy the Q'ero take the work seriously but do not take themselves seriouslyWhy having more fun may be one of the most powerful spiritual practicesThe difference between Soul Retrieval and Destiny Retrieval and how they can help shape your preferred futureSupport Jon's work below:Webpage: https://thesoulalgorithm.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/JonRasmussenPodcast: https://shamanradio.buzzsprout.comTarot of the Future Book: https://a.co/d/01HIuYDsTarot of the Future Card Deck: https://www.makeplayingcards.com/sell/marketplace/tarot-of-the-future.html

What does it really take to let go of the fairy tale you were raised with and create a life, and family, that's truly your own? In this episode, I sit down with Cheri Bergeron, Austin author, single mom by choice, and passionate advocate for women navigating new paths to motherhood.Cheri's journey has included fertility challenges, marriage and divorce, donor conception loss, and ultimately, building her family in unexpected and deeply intentional ways. Her story is raw, emotional, and so relatable for anyone who has found themselves facing a future far different from the one they once imagined. We talk honestly about the push and pull between career ambition and the dream of motherhood, and what happens when timelines, biology, or relationships don't line up the way you hoped.Cheri shares the lessons she learned about advocating for yourself in the fertility world, building non-traditional village support, and making empowered choices no matter how many pivots your journey requires. We also open up about the real fears so many single mothers by choice face: Will our children be okay? What will people think if we have kids “later”? And how can intentional community shape the way we (and our kids) experience solo motherhood?In this episode, we talk about:Cheri's path from a “Prince Convenient” marriage to solo motherhood by choiceThe realities and surprises of using donor eggs and navigating IVF in your 40sGrieving the losses that come with fertility challenges and transitionsWhy clarity around your values can guide even the hardest decisionsRethinking what your village looks like, and building a non-traditional support systemHandling judgment, both real and imagined, from family and yourselfHow to hold space for kids' questions and thrive as a single-parent familyConnect with Cheri:WebsiteCheri's book, Mission: Motherhood
In this week's episode, we're diving deep into the power of affirmations — not the trendy, surface‑level kind, but the kind that actually reshape your internal dialogue, interrupt old patterns, and help you build healthier relationships with yourself and others.Affirmations are more than positive statements. They're tools that help you challenge the beliefs you've internalized from past relationships, trauma, or childhood experiences. When used intentionally, they support emotional safety, strengthen your boundaries, and help you show up in relationships with clarity and confidence.Before we explore affirmations, we take a moment to recap last week's episode on Recognizing Red Flags in Early Dating, where we talked about how to identify early signs of emotional unavailability, inconsistency, and boundary‑pushing and why trusting your intuition is essential. This week's conversation builds on that foundation by helping you develop the internal voice that protects your peace and guides your choices.

It's a reunion podcast! I love it when I can reconnect with prior guests. Kathy Miller and I did our first podcast together 2-3 years ago, so it's been a hot minute!Kathy has an amazing story in manufacturing you will hear more about.

In this episode of Let's Not Sugarcoat It, Bella and Lee sit down with Katharina and David Kunz for a raw and grounded conversation about functional mushrooms, psilocybin, natural wellness, personal growth, and the healing intelligence of nature.They discuss the difference between functional mushrooms and psilocybin mushrooms, why mushrooms have been used in traditional wellness practices for generations, and how mushrooms like lion's mane, reishi, chaga, cordyceps, turkey tail, shiitake, and maitake are being explored for focus, energy, immune support, gut health, stress support, and overall wellbeing.This conversation also explores psilocybin from a personal growth perspective, including intention, set and setting, guided journeys, integration, surrender, control, emotional healing, and the importance of not treating the experience as a quick fix.Bella also shares her personal experience with a guided psilocybin journey, what it revealed about control, loneliness, and connection, and how integration became the real work after the experience.Katharina shares the story behind Liquid Aura, her functional mushroom blends, and why she created a product experience that combines mushroom education, wellness support, meditation, and inner work.David shares the science behind full spectrum mushrooms, mycelium, mushroom fruiting bodies, cordyceps, lion's mane, adaptogens, and why sourcing and quality matter when choosing mushroom supplements.Topics covered in this episode:Functional mushrooms versus psilocybin mushroomsWhat full spectrum mushrooms meanLion's mane, reishi, chaga, cordyceps, turkey tail, shiitake, and maitakeMushrooms and gut healthMushrooms and immune supportCordyceps for energy and staminaLion's mane and brain health researchTurkey tail and cancer related researchAdaptogens and stress supportWhy mushroom quality and sourcing matterPsilocybin, intention, and guided journeysSet and settingIntegration after a psychedelic experienceLetting go of controlPersonal growth and inner healingNature, wellness, and reconnecting with yourselfHow mushrooms can affect relationships and self awarenessDisclaimer: This episode is for education and personal storytelling only. It is not medical advice, legal advice, or a recommendation to use psilocybin.

Always speak with a qualified health professional before using supplements, functional mushrooms, or exploring psychedelic assisted therapy.
In this episode, I sit down with Bill, the founder of Story State Solutions, a coaching business focused on helping men navigate post-sobriety recovery and helping professionals get unstuck in their personal and professional lives.Bill's message is powerful because it goes beyond sobriety.For him, sobriety isn't the finish line—it's the starting line.With 37 years of sobriety, a Level 3 Enlifted certification, and a background as an ultra-endurance athlete—including preparing for an upcoming 200-mile race through the Sierra Nevada—Bill has built his life around resilience, ownership, discipline, and movement forward.His coaching framework:Story → State → Actions → Resultsis designed to help people stop overthinking, get out of their heads, and start taking action.This conversation is about recovery, identity, mindset, suffering, purpose, and learning how to turn pain into momentum.Bill's journey through addiction and 37 years of sobrietyWhy sobriety alone doesn't automatically create fulfillmentThe power of changing the story you tell yourselfHow your emotional state impacts your actions and outcomesWhy movement and discipline matter for mental healthThe mindset required to endure ultra-endurance races—and life itselfThe idea that life isn't happening to you, it's happening through youA lot of people believe recovery is about stopping something.Bill believes recovery is about becoming someone.This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or trapped inside their own thoughts—and needs a reminder that change starts with action.During this episode, we also talk about the upcoming 200-mile Sierra Nevada race fundraiser supporting Stay in the Fight, the mental health charity started in memory of my brother Anthony.Being strong doesn't mean being invincible.It means showing up every single day—even when life hits hard.Anthony carried a lot of people while quietly fighting his own battles with mental health. After losing him in 2024, we created Stay in the Fight because nobody should have to struggle alone—and nobody should have to skip therapy because they can't afford it.The mission is simple:Provide mental health resources and therapy with no cost and no barriers.This race is for Anthony.And for everyone still in the fight.Finish the Race Apparel: ftrapparel.comBecome Stronger Industries: become-stronger.comSupport Stay in the Fight:https://www.stayinthefight.am/If this episode gave you something valuable, share it with someone who needs to hear it.And as always—go one step further than you thought you could go.In this episode, we discuss:Why this episode matters200-Mile Race Fundraiser — Stay in the FightSponsors & Resources
Have you ever felt like you just need to start over?A new plan. A different supplement. Another protocol. Something that will finally work.In this episode, Janell Yule explores the cycle so many women get stuck in — constantly searching for the next solution while feeling more overwhelmed, disconnected, and exhausted.This conversation is a reminder that transformation doesn't usually come from doing more. It often comes from returning to the foundations your body has been asking for all along.You'll learn:Why overwhelm creates the urge to constantly “fix” yourselfHow health culture keeps women chasing moreWhy consistency matters more than intensityThe role of nervous system safety in healingSimple foundational practices that support energy, hormones, digestion, metabolism, and emotional well-beingThis episode is grounding, practical, and deeply encouraging for women who feel like nothing is working anymore.Mentioned in this episode:Metabolic Jumpstarthttps://www.thetransformationlife.com/metabolic-jumpstartHormone Clarity Quizhttps://www.thetransformationlife.com/hormonequizAs always… Have Faith & Take Action.
What happens when an insurance executive leaves corporate leadership, joins an early internet startup, discovers the power of freelancers before remote work became mainstream, and then builds a company around helping small businesses scale smarter?You get a fascinating entrepreneurial journey like the one shared by Elizabath Eiss on this episode of Inventive Journey.In this conversation, Elizabath explains how her career evolved from commercial insurance underwriting into technology startups, consulting, and eventually founding Results Resourcing — a company focused on helping entrepreneurs and small businesses build operational support through curated freelance teams.One of the most memorable moments in the episode comes from a simple phrase that completely reshaped her business model:“Confident, reliable, nice.”That was the request from a business owner who needed urgent support and didn't care about flashy resumes or complicated credentials. They simply wanted someone dependable, capable, easy to work with, and available quickly.Ironically, that simple request captures one of the biggest hiring challenges facing modern entrepreneurs.Small businesses today are overwhelmed.Founders are trying to handle sales, marketing, bookkeeping, customer support, operations, social media, hiring, and strategic planning all at the same time. Many entrepreneurs become trapped inside operational work and never truly step into the CEO role required for sustainable growth.Elizabath believes outsourcing can help solve that problem — but only if it's done strategically.Throughout the episode, she discusses the evolution of freelance marketplaces, why so many founders struggle with delegation, and how curated teams can provide far more value than disconnected individual contractors.She also shares insights from her early corporate career where she learned how businesses succeed, fail, adapt, and scale. Her insurance underwriting background exposed her to countless industries and gave her a unique perspective on operational effectiveness and organizational risk.The episode also explores networking, entrepreneurial resilience, and the importance of staying open to reinvention throughout a career.Some additional highlights include:Why many founders stay too operational for too longThe hidden costs of trying to do everything yourselfHow outsourcing has evolved over the last two decadesWhy networking remains one of the most underrated entrepreneurial skillsThe lessons learned from joining a startup that ultimately failedHow small businesses can scale without massive payroll overheadThe shift from hiring individual freelancers to building integrated support teamsWhy adaptability matters more than rigid career planningOne especially valuable insight comes when Elizabath discusses recognizing when to leave struggling situations instead of staying purely out of optimism. That balance between persistence and realism is something nearly every entrepreneur faces at some point.The conversation also highlights the broader economic importance of small businesses. As Elizabath points out, the overwhelming majority of businesses in the United States are tiny organizations or solopreneurs. Helping those businesses grow even modestly can create major impacts for families, local economies, and communities.Whether you're an entrepreneur, startup founder, freelancer, consultant, or small business owner trying to scale more effectively, this episode offers practical insights grounded in real operational experience.Most importantly, it reminds listeners that growth doesn't always come from doing more personally.Sometimes growth comes from building systems, relationships, and support structures that allow founders to focus on what matters most.And sometimes the most valuable business qualities are still the simplest ones:Confident.Reliable.Nice.To chat about this one-on-one, grab a free consult at strategymeeting.com
We're joined by Bhavesh Ratanpal. product leader, author, and long‑time practitioner of yoga philosophy, for a unique conversation about his book Product Ashtangi and how ancient Vedic wisdom can change the way we build products and lead teams.Bhavesh shares his journey from growing up in a family of priests in India, to a career in software development and product management at places like TD Bank, Citibank, and TELUS, and now to founding human‑centric AI startups in Canada. Along the way, he kept returning to one insight: a calm, clear mind makes better product decisions. Product Ashtangi is his attempt to codify that, combining the eight limbs of Ashtanga yoga with modern product practice.Join Matt and Moshe as they explore with Bhavesh:What “Product Ashtangi” means and why the first product you work on is yourselfHow the eight limbs of yoga (starting with Yama - truthfulness, ethics, ego‑awareness) translate into everyday product decisionsThe difference between building from ego and cosmetics vs. focusing on real user pain and social welfareHow to shift between observer and experiencer modes so you can see problems clearly instead of reacting emotionallyStories of applying these principles in practice, from enterprise migrations and platform decisions to Bhavesh's current AI products (pet adoption and strata governance)Treating your life like a product: personal sprints, self‑retros every two weeks, and continuously “shipping” a better version of yourselfHow karma yoga and product management align when you see products as vehicles for societal good, not just business metricsThe structure of the book:Part 1 – theory connecting yoga sutras, Bhagavad Gita, and product thinkingPart 2 – practical ways to adopt the eight limbs in your product workWhere to start if you're curious: books, practices, and small mindset shifts you can apply this weekAnd much more!Want to learn more or get the book?Website: http://bhaveshratanpal.caLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bhaveshratanpalYou can also connect with us and find more episodes:Product for Product Podcast: http://linkedin.com/company/product-for-product-podcastMatt Green: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattgreenproduct/Moshe Mikanovsky: http://www.linkedin.com/in/mikanovskyNote: Any views mentioned in the podcast are the sole views of our hosts and guests, and do not represent the products mentioned in any way.Please leave us a review and feedback ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
#381: If you're tired of sitting around and waiting for change to happen in your life, this episode is for you. We all have an inner desire and dream for what we want out of life, but more often than not, we are the ones keeping ourselves smaller and not actually working towards that life. Whether that is from fear, wanting to make others happy (ex. parents), someone telling us we can't do it, etc.You have the power to claim the life you deserve, but it's up to you.What you'll learn:The self-talk you need to plant in your mind in the process of overcoming your fears and mental hurdlesWhy it's not bad to be delusional about the life you want for yourselfHow embodying the lifestyle and person you want to become naturally shifts your life towards that directionObserving whether you keep yourself thinking small and how to claim what you really wantBILT Credit Card Info (Pay Rent and Earn Points):https://bilt.page/r/HQ06-ZV7OReceive weekly personal insights from Emily's email newsletter and subscribe hereWatch Full Episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatfulfillsyou/videosENJOY 10% OFF THE WHAT FULFILLS YOU?

Send us Fan MailWhole. Capable. Perfect. Just as you are.Go ahead and sit with that for a second. Because if you're anything like most of us in medicine, those three words probably don't come naturally when you think about yourself. We weren't trained that way. We were trained to find what's wrong, what's missing, what needs to be corrected. And that lens? It doesn't always stay at work.In this episode, we're trying something on together. What happens when you choose to see yourself as whole, capable, and perfect, right now, inside a broken system, with imperfect tools and an inbox that never fully empties? And then, what happens when you extend that same belief to your patients? To your staff and colleagues? To the people you love?We're walking through all three, and I think you might be surprised where this lands.A few things we get into:What it actually looks like to separate your worth from the dysfunction of the system you work inWhy seeing your patients as capable adults might be one of the kindest things you can do for yourselfHow this framework quietly shifts the way you set limits and stop carrying what isn't yoursThe one-week experiment I want you to try, and why you don't have to believe any of this is true to benefit from itNote: we are making a deliberate carve-out for vulnerable adults, minors, and anyone who doesn't have full decision-making capacity. This conversation is about the capable adults who make up much of your practice, and the capable adults in your personal life too.Ready to try it on?

Send us Fan MailThere's a season in life where everything you've been leaning on just... isn't there anymore. The neighbor moves. The sister takes a second job. The husband travels. The parents are across the ocean. And you're standing in the middle of what feels like a very loud, very clear message that you are on your own. What do you do with that?Angela and I have been circling this topic from a few different directions over the past several months, through disappointment, expectations, friendships, and this week it all converged in one conversation. Stoicism, Mel Robbins' Let Them Theory, Tara Brach's Radical Acceptance. Three different sources, same essential truth: there is a kind of freedom that only becomes available when you stop spending energy trying to control what you were never going to be able to control anyway. And the equally important flip side, that accepting what someone else does is not the same as condoning it. In this episode, we dig into:Why acceptance takes more courage than fighting, and why it's not the same as giving upThe "let them / let me" two-step, and why skipping the second part is where things go sidewaysHow stoicism has been quietly showing up in Angela's life for years, especially after a trip to AthensThe connection between forgiving someone and not drinking poison yourselfHow to set limits on someone without needing to be furious to do itSami shares the Christmas story (yes, that Christmas story, two separate years, no gift, being sent to find it herself) and what finally shifted when she stopped trying to orchestrate a different outcome. Angela gets into the roots of stoicism, Marcus Aurelius, Ryan Holiday, and why the ancient philosophers weren't telling us to feel nothing, they were telling us to stop white-knuckling every wave. The image we kept coming back to: you don't get less battered in the storm by having a smaller boat. You get a bigger one.You can influence people. You can guide them, persuade them, set limits with them, and reach agreements with them. What you cannot do is control what they do. And the most exhausting part of trying is that it doesn't work — and it costs you, every single time. This episode is permission to put that particular weight down. Not because it doesn't matter. Because you matter more.Press play. Especially if you've been white-knuckling something lately and you're starting to suspect it's wearing you out.Mentioned in this episode:The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins: https://www.melrobbins.com/book/the-let-them-theory/Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach: https://www.tarabrach.com/books/radical-acceptance/The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan HolidayThe Daily Stoic by The 3rd Annual Family Business Forum is May 19 in Springdale, AR.

What's really stopping you from becoming the thought-leader you're meant to be?In this episode of Daily Path Podcast, I break down the real reason so many capable, successful entrepreneurs hesitate to step into thought-leadership — and how to fix it.If you've ever caught yourself thinking:“I want to be a business coach… but who would actuallypay me?”“I want to share my story… but who would listen?”“I want to write a book… but what if no one buys it?”You're not alone — and you're notunqualified.I explain why doubt isn't a skill issue, confidence issue, or experience issue. It's an identity issue.Drawing from personal reflection, conversations with 6–8 figure entrepreneurs, and a powerful devotional insighton “embracing the new you,” this episode explores why so many people stay stuck seeing themselves as who they used to be — even after life and success have clearly moved them forward.In this episode, you'll learn:Why successful people stillstruggle to own their voiceThe hidden cost of staying silentafter you've already succeededHow to audit your circle so itsupports who you're becoming — not who you wereA simple reflection exercise toreconnect with the growth you've earnedWhy thought-leadership starts withpermission — and how to give it to yourselfHow to practice the identity ofthe thought-leader you're becoming (not just talk about it)The truth is simple: You already have the experience. Youalready have the results. The only thing left is embracing who you are now.If you're ready to stop doubting your voice and start leading with it, this episode is for you.----Need help making the transition?

What if your motherhood guilt isn't proof you failed, but a sign you've been carrying too much for too long? You can give everything to your children and still hear that relentless inner critic whispering it wasn't enough — and over time, that pressure can become maternal stress, emotional exhaustion, and even maternal burnout carried quietly beneath the surface.But what if that voice and the sensations associated with them aren't telling you the truth?So much of what we believe about being a “good mother” is shaped by cultural beliefs and unexamined parenting beliefs — expectations that were never designed to be humanly sustainable. The pressure, the second-guessing, the ache of regret…it's not random. And these thoughts can cause dis-ease in your body.In this solo episode, I'm talking about parenting guilt and shame, the stories so many mothers carry, and why they can be stored in the body. We'll look at motherhood through a compassionate somatic lens and make space for a gentler relationship with your maternal identity.In this episode, you'll learn:Why old emotional patterns can feel so persistentHow the nervous system reinforces self-critismWhat having impossible standards can do to a mother's body and sense of selfWhy exhaustion is often a sign that needs attention. It's not a personal failureHow inherited messages shape the way you measure yourselfHow to stop mom guilt A body-based approach to without relying on willpowerWhy self compassion for moms is not indulgent, but essentialHow repair can create more honesty, connection, and healingIf you've been carrying the quiet belief that you should have done it differently… or that somehow you weren't enough… You don't have to keep relating to yourself through criticism and pressure. There is another way to meet yourself — one that includes more understanding, more space, and a different kind of strength.Cheers to finding your freedom,LaurieClick here to purchase my “Nervous System Regulation Starter Kit” it's ON SALE for $19.99Click here to purchase my book: Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting GoClick here to watch the Barbie clip referenced in this podcastFree ResourcesClick here to schedule a FREE inquiry call with me.Click here for my FREE “Beginner's Guide to Somatic Healing”Click here for my FREE Core Values ExerciseWebsiteRESOURCES MENTIONED:Sandwiched: A book written by Laurie James, detailing her experiences with the "sandwich generation" (raising children while caring for aging parents).The Voo Exercise: A vocalization technique used to tone the vagus nerve and discharge nervous system tension.Barbie the movie clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBqlDWHkdHkPlease leave me feedback.

In a world that rewards being right, being strong, and holding it all together, the Sefirah of Hod invites us into a very different kind of strength. In this heart-open class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores the power of humility, not as weakness, but as the courage to soften, to acknowledge truth, and to release the need to control. Drawing from Kabbalah, Chassidic teachings and real-life experiences, this session unpacks how Hod shows up in our relationships, our inner dialogue, and our spiritual growth. When we stop defending and start listening, something shifts. Hod is where we become more honest, more connected, and ultimately, more whole.Key Takeaways:Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's being honest enough to let go of defensivenessWhy “being right” can quietly damage relationships and what to choose insteadThe difference between healthy humility and losing yourselfHow to say “I'm sorry” in a way that actually healsLetting go of control as a path to deeper connectionHow Hod creates space for others, for truth, and for growthThe role of acknowledgment in emotional and spiritual maturity#Kabbalah #SefiratHaOmer #Sefirah #Hod #Spirituality #TreeofLife #humility #EmotionalGrowth #lettinggo #Authenticity #Relationships #InnerWork #chassidus #JewishWisdom #spiritualgrowth #Connection #healing #RabbiBernath A Brand-New Four Part Kabbalah Series - Turning Walls into DoorwaysHow to Transform Life's Obstacles into the Path to Your Greatest GrowthWhy do we keep hitting the same emotional walls?

If weight loss were just about food and workouts… you'd already have it handled.So why does it keep feeling like you're starting over?In this milestone Episode 200, we're talking about what's actually going on beneath the surface. After four years of talking about nutrition, training, and fat loss, she strips it all back to the truth most people avoid:You don't have a weight loss problem.You have a self-trust problem.This episode dives into the patterns so many women experience like starting strong, losing momentum, and wondering what went wrong. It's not about lack of knowledge. It's not about needing a better plan. It's about the gap between what you say you'll do… and what you actually follow through on.We're covering:Why inconsistency isn't a discipline issue—it's a disconnectThe real reason you keep negotiating with yourselfHow distraction, stress, and “checking out” are quietly sabotaging your progressWhat it actually means to come back to yourself (without another reset or starting over)The simple, uncomfortable reps that rebuild self-trust for goodThis isn't about a new diet, new macros, or a perfect plan.It's about learning to trust yourself again so weight loss finally becomes simpler, more sustainable, and a lot less exhausting.If you're done chasing the next fix and ready for a deeper shift, this episode is for you.Listen now.________________________________We now have a client store with THORNE.

What if the reason life feels harder than it “should” isn't a personal failing… but something that's been missed all along?In this eye-opening episode, Dr Jacob Santhouse reveals how dyslexia goes far beyond reading and writing, and why so many women with ADHD may be living with an undetected piece of their story.If I asked you to describe dyslexia, what would you say?

“That's why the natal chart is so cool and human design and gene keys are these beautiful tools that give us permission to be ourselves.” –Danielle HendricksonI'm a Gemini. For a long time, that's all I knew about astrology. But it fascinated me. Turns out, all I knew was my Sun sigh, and I'm really interested in Moons, because the moon maps to the feminine cycle.I'm excited to share this conversation with Venusian astrologer Danielle Hendrickson, who writes the Astrology Report for Pause magazine every month.I asked Danielle for Astrology 101, and she used this analogy. You're in a car, and you are the driver. The car is being fueled by your sun. Your sun is the gas in the tank, and it's making you move towards your ascending sign, which is who you are here to become. To find out who else is in the car, and why they matter, take a listen.We talk about:The shift in our creative center when we reach menopauseVenus returns happening every eight years and how you can see your feminine rising over timeUnderstanding your signs to understand your path and be more yourselfHow your relationship with the moon may change in perimenopause, menopause, and beyondMapping the moon, your cycle, and your Venus weekThe 19-month Venus cycleABOUT DANIELLE Danielle Hendrickson is a women's spiritual guide, Venusian astrologer and priestess devoted to helping women remember and embody their Sacred Feminine blueprint. Through her Venus Readings, she reveals each woman's unique codes, illuminating the goddess she is here to embody and the gifts ready to come alive through her. She is the Foundress of Circle of Roses, a sisterhood rooted in the Rose lineage, where women are nourished in community, live in rhythm with the Moon + Venus and are committed to walking the Way of Love.LINKShttps://www.daniellehendrickson.net/masterclassDanielle on SubstackMENTIONED LINKSPause MagazinePlanSimple Moon TrackerHow to Utilize the Full Moon to Make Better PlansHow to Discover Your Rhythm by Observing the MoonGet to Know the Moon with Dr. AumatmaLunar Abundance with Ezzie SpencerMoon Board that Danielle mentionedVenus TrackerDOABLE CHANGESAt the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action. Change comes from action.Sometimes action gets a bad rap. You can be kind to yourself. You can practice being AND doing, but for change to happen you have to take steps. The way we take care of ourselves is making the steps doable and focusing on one thing at a time. We take time to integrate the change and then move on to the next one. Pick a Doable Change that resonates with you the most to start from.Here are three Doable changes that we chose from this conversation. FIND YOUR MOON. You probably know your Sun sign — that's the horoscope you usually look up. What about your moon? Use an online moon sign calculator to find your moon and learn more about it.MAP THE MOON CYCLE. Use our moon tracker, the moon board Danielle mentioned, or any other way to track where the moon is in its cycle, where you are in yours (if you are cycling) and what you notice about yourself in different parts of the cycle.GET A BASIC CHART. I highly recommend you get a reading from a real astrologer, especially if you are interested in the sacred feminine. If you're ready, your doable change is to book an appointment. Not ready, try asking AI about your chart to get a starting point. What resonates?

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Picture Love, I'm sharing a very real reflection on what happened when I woke up feeling heavy, moved through a difficult emotional day, and chose to practice kindness toward myself instead of trying to rush past what I was feeling.We'll talk about:Why self-kindness is the root of authentic kindness toward othersThe difference between true kindness and “false kindness” that comes from pressure, perfectionism, or the need to fixWhat it means to love people and let them without abandoning yourselfHow nature, reflection, and even a simple conversation with AI helped me return to a more grounded and loving spaceA gentle question you can ask yourself when life feels messy: "What is the next kindest thing I can do for myself right now?"If you've been carrying frustration, sadness, overwhelm, or the urge to fix everything for everyone… this episode is a loving reminder that kindness begins at home, in your own heart.✨ And maybe the most powerful thing we can do is choose the kind pattern we want to keep feeding.If this speaks to you, I'd love to hear:What's the most recent kind thing you noticed—either from yourself, someone else, or life itself?And if you've been hearing me mention the new affirmation cards… yes, they're getting very close.
Season 7 of Embracing Enough is about saying what'salready being said in the group chat - out loud.And today? We're talking to the woman who has done all the work.Therapy? Check.Books? Highlighted.Podcasts? Saved.Breathwork app? Downloaded.You know the language.You can explain nervous system regulation in a meeting.You've taught other people about boundaries.And you are still tired.Not collapsing-on-the-floor tired.High-functioning tired.Polished tired.“Of course I can take that on” tired.I'm joined by Paul Lubicz, executive and transformationalcoach, and we go straight at the question most leaders avoid:What happens when resilience turns into self-abandonment?When discipline becomes disconnection?When “doing it right” slowly becomes overriding yourself?Because here's the uncomfortable truth:A lot of self-aware leaders are not actually connected.They know the tools. They just don't trust their own signal. They still call exhaustion commitment. They still call hyper-control maturity. They still confuse self-control with self-trust.And no one's calling it out because from the outside? You look great. This conversation is not about becoming a better version of yourself.It's about admitting that somewhere along the way,productivity replaced presence - and you left part of yourself behind.We talk about:The difference between understanding yourself and actually listening to yourselfHow urgency drowns out intuition - especially in leadershipThe emotional labor successful people carry but rarely nameThe truth high-achievers are afraid to admit: “I don't actually feel connected to what I'm building.”And what rebuilding self-trust looks like - without turning it into another optimization projectIf you've ever walked out of a meeting replaying everythingyou said - even though everyone else thinks you're confident…If you're tired of performing wellness while privatelywhite-knuckling it…If you know, deep down, that your body has been trying toget your attention…This episode is not about fixing yourself. It's about finally listening.To learn more about Paul Lubicz, visit https://www.thewellbeingmanager.com/or follow him on Instagram at @thewellbeingmanager.
#270: In this special episode, Josie guides listeners through one of the most powerful exercises she's used in her own personal growth journey: an inner child healing meditation and journaling exercise. We all carry younger versions of ourselves—the child who first felt rejected, the teenager who felt insecure, a past version of us who simply wanted to feel safe, seen, loved, or protected. Fears, triggers, insecurities, and doubts we experience today often don't come from our adult selves, but from those younger parts of us that never fully got to be heard or healed. In this episode, Josie gently guides you through a body-based meditation designed to relax the nervous system, quiet the conscious mind, and access the subconscious, and a guided journal exercise to help you reconnect with your inner child and release limiting beliefs that may still be shaping your life.You'll learn:Why we carry “inner child” wounds into adulthoodHow relaxing the body helps access the subconscious mindA guided body relaxation meditation to release limiting beliefsA powerful inner child journaling exercisePrompts to help you reconnect with younger versions of yourselfHow to make promises to your inner child that build self-trust and safetyMeditation begins around: 5:45Guided journaling begins around: 9:55For Detailed Show Notes visit theeverygirlpodcast.com Hosted on Acast.

Support is a skill most women were never taught to practice.In this episode, we're talking about the confidence to ask for help and why so many women quietly carry more than they were ever meant to hold. We unpack the internal narratives that keep you stuck doing everything yourself: the belief that you're a burden, the pressure to prove you can handle it all, and the quiet fear of owing someone something later. We also explore how modern motherhood, comparison, and the loss of “the village” have made support feel like failure instead of what it actually is: a core confidence skill.You'll hear why asking for help feels uncomfortable but is necessary, how letting others show up for you can actually be a gift, and why people-pleasing and martyrdom are often rooted in self-worth, not strength. We also get practical with how to ask clearly and sooner, how to anticipate your needs before burnout, and how to release control once you've delegated—because confidence isn't built by doing everything alone, it's built by knowing you don't have to. Today we cover:Why asking for help feels like being a burdenThe mental stories that keep you doing everything yourselfHow modern motherhood and comparison increase the pressureWhy asking for help is directly tied to confidence and self-worthHow to make your ask clear, specific, and easy to answerThe importance of asking sooner instead of waiting for burnoutLetting go of control after you delegate or receive supportHow modeling support changes the next generation Connect with Whitney & Stephanie: captureyourconfidencepodcast@gmail.comStephanie IG: @_stephanie_hanna_The Other 85: https://theother85.net/Whitney IG: @whitneyabraham
