You’ve heard the inspirational quote: “You don’t have any limitations.” But the truth is… you do. In this episode, I’ll show you how to find what’s really holding you back (and how to work through it), so you can finally move toward your big goal with clarity, confidence, and ease. On the way to your goal, there are real-world limits — time, physics, biology, even the occasional tech glitch. But most of the roadblocks that feel immovable aren’t actually external at all. They’re inside your imagination, your thoughts, and your feelings. And when you can recognize that, suddenly the path forward looks very different.In this episode, I’m diving deep into what I call your true limitations and how the Daily 3™ Journaling Framework helps you work through them instead of constantly butting up against them. You’ll discover why practicing your imagination is essential, how metacognitive journaling reveals the stories that keep you stuck, and why your willingness to feel uncomfortable emotions is the ultimate game-changer.This is a powerful reframe for ambitious, overthinking women with big goals (yes, I'm talking to, and about, YOU).Ready to Get Your GOAL?

When Other People Question Your Decisions
When other people question your decisions, it’s easy to spiral into self-doubt. But what if their reaction isn’t really about you? In this episode, we’ll explore why second-guessing yourself keeps you stuck, and how to start trusting your own decisions, even if you get questioned about them. You know what it's like: you've just announced your decision, and someone raises an eyebrow, asks a “just curious” question, or offers a different opinion, and suddenly, you’re not just thinking about the choice itself, you’re thinking about what they must think of you. Cue the mental gymnastics, the self-judgment, and maybe even a change of plans you didn’t actually want to make.In this episode, I’m sharing the story of an overheard conversation that completely lit up my own awareness about decisions, self-concept, and what we truly control. We’ll talk about why there’s really no such thing as a “bad” decision, why other people’s objections are (probably) never about you, and how to separate their questions from your own intentions. If you’re ready to feel confident about the decisions you make, this conversation is for you.Ready to Get Your GOAL?

How To Stop Being So Hard On Yourself
You're tired of being so hard on yourself, but how do you stop? In this episode, we’ll explore why that inner critic is so persistent, and how to shift it gently with a simple, science-backed journaling practice that takes just five minutes a day.You say it practically every day: “I just need to stop being so hard on myself.” And while that sounds like a noble goal, it’s not exactly actionable, is it? Which means you stay stuck in the same spiral of overthinking, perfectionism, and self-criticism.In this compassionate and practical episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what that phrase really means, and why your brain defaults to beating you up in the first place. You’ll hear personal examples (including a very real podcasting moment) and get a clear breakdown of how to rewire your brain away from the habit of self-criticism, by using my five-minute journaling method, the Daily 3™. I’ll show you why trying to stop doing something isn’t effective—and how focusing on what you do want instead can change everything.If you’re ready to move from “I know I’m being too hard on myself” to actually treating yourself with kindness and self-trust, this episode is for you.Ready to Get Your GOAL?
